Chapter 78 (1/2)

“What big words!” Duan Hongzhen scoffed, “Who’s going to die isn’t clear yet!” He rushed towards Lily Marlene.

Then he was beaten back.

Yu Fuling and Sai Lulu attacked at the same time, but soon they were also beaten back.

Lily Marlene smiled from the beginning to end, she didn’t even use any effort, and just laughed and beat Duan Hongzhen and others back one by one.

She was very powerful, extremely powerful. The kind of powerful that was crushing.

Xiao Tangqiu stared at Lily Marlene closely. As a self-aware burden, he naturally would not rush forward and act as cannon fodder when the power gap was so great. He just watched the battle, trying to find any weaknesses and flaws from Lily Marlene, but he couldn’t. Faced with the repeated assaults from Duan Hongzhen and others, Lily Marlene did not even frown.

Xiao Tangqiu’s heart sank and a very bad premonition came. Lily Marlene was obviously stronger than Lippinobert and stronger than he had imagined. Even Duan Hongzhen and the others combined were not her opponents at all. The worst was that these fights didn’t even reveal the slightest weakness and flaw in her.

He subconsciously looked at Shen Yuan besides him, but when he saw Shen Yuan frowning with dark eyes, his heart sank further. Even Shen Yuan frowned!

Xiao Tangqiu bit his lip and his thoughts raced. Why did Lily Marlene appear here? According to her statement, she broke the “wall” between the real world and the instance world before she came to the instance world. Because of that, she also abandoned most of her power, but this was obviously not all of it. If only abandoning power and breaking the “wall” could allow her to come to the instance world, why didn’t other demons do this before? Couldn’t they do the same?

The Reincarnation Team had played many S-level instances, but they had only encountered some low-level demons in S-level instances before. Lippinobert and Lily Marlene were obviously far beyond their abilities. Lippinobert was only an impure demon, and although his powers sourced from the demon heart fragments was suspicious, at least he was originally an NPC in the instance world. But Lily Marlene was a high-level demon who came directly to the instance world from the real world… How did Lily Marlene do it?

Xiao Tangqiu had a tense frown. He felt that he had missed a lot of important clues, but his brain was in a mess and it was difficult to sort out his thoughts, so he could only force himself to calm down first.

Why did Lily Marlene pretend to be the Miko of Kisaragi Shrine? Did the Miko of Kisaragi Shrine really exist? Clearly, Lily Marlene pretended to be a Miko to confuse them all along to use their hands to get rid of the mountain god of Hundred Ghost Town and Hundred Ghost Village. So why did Lily Marlene get rid of the mountain god? And why couldn’t she do it herself?

The most important question was if her goal was their instance mission or to get rid of the mountain god?

Thinking of this, Xiao Tangqiu was suddenly startled. If Lily Marlene confused them and led them to kill what they shouldn’t kill, would their instance mission be counted as a failure?

At this moment, a familiar and cold system voice suddenly sounded in his ear, “…Congratulations, dear players, for triggering the Super S-level hidden mission,

The Witch's Tribute. Your mission task is ???, time limit is ??? days, you will get 1,000,000 points and special rewards after the mission is completed…”

Xiao Tangqiu, “&#k2026;”

One million points???

He was dumbfounded by this number. Although one million points was much much higher than the original 50,000 points of this S-level mission, he believed that this was directly proportional to the difficulty of the Super S-level mission itself. It would be great to get a million points for completing this task, but he was afraid that they would die&#k2026; The only good thing was that there was no penalty for failure.

Regardless, Lily Marlene’s overpowering strength made him doubt whether they could return to the City of the Abyss in the form of mission failure.

But what concerned Xiao Tangqiu the most was that the system did not prompt them whether the mission was completed. Although they solved the issue of the mountain god, the S-level instance’s mission did not seem to be over… Was Lily Marlene also part of their task? Or was it that their original mission task was only the Mountain God, but after Lily Marlene stepped in, another task was added?

Wait! He remembered that their original mission goal was “escape from Hundred Ghost Village”! If the issue of Lily Marlene was not resolved, they would never escape from Hundred Ghost Village!

The more Xiao Tangqiu thought about it, the more anxious he felt. At this moment, Shen Yuan finally made a move. He took out the silver gun, pointed it at Lily Marlene, and fired!

The gunshot rang out and Lily Marlene smiled without moving!

Everyone was shocked. They had never seen anyone who was not afraid when Shen Yuan shot. Lily Marlene was not only not afraid, she was very calm.

Shen Yuan’s bullet pierced Lily Marlene’s body in an instant. Lily Marlene not only did not turn into a black hole like the low-level demons, but actually absorbed Shen Yuan’s bullet!

Xiao Tangqiu stared with wide eyes as Lily Marlene raised her eyebrows, “Thank you for giving me energy. Although it is not much, it still feels quite good.”

Shen Yuan’s bullets had no effect on Lily Marlene!
