Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

So Jiang Xianwu was so confident, he must have had an ace up his sleeve, didn't he?

Squeak—creak—

The sound of an old wooden door being pushed open came from afar.

As the wooden door opened, the red light became increasingly piercing.

Everyone looked toward the distance and saw an even denser group of monsters, whether in terms of their twisted forms, size, or the oppressive aura they exuded...

They were far more terrifying than the twenty or so Tyrant zombies they had just encountered.

Simply put, behind the giant wooden door were the warden's latest experimental breeds.

These monsters had a unified name—B-grade jailers.

The name B-grade jailers floated above these monsters' heads.

From afar, both Guang Tongchen and Tian Xiaowu could hardly believe that these were only B-grade?

When they saw the letter B symbolizing the level, they subconsciously thought, could there be higher levels like A and S?

If so, how powerful would those monsters be?

"The number and strength greatly exceed that batch of zombies from before, and they are constantly approaching us. We still have time to leave this place!"

In fact, as early as when they were killing the Tyrant zombies, Zhou Baiyu had discovered that the monsters here were immune to charm.

That is to say, Snow Demon's bullets couldn't control these monsters. They could only rely on piercing damage to forcibly inflict injuries.

Like a group of charging rhinoceroses! The entire black dungeon was slightly shaking.

"Since these monsters cannot leave the black dungeon, we at least have the option to retreat and preserve a glimmer of hope of surviving," Xunmeng Wuchang said.

Zhou Baiyu, however, shook his head:

"No... we can't retreat. At least someone has to try to reach the source of that red light."

Watching the monsters draw closer, Guang Tongchen was calculating the distance, thinking that if they didn't leave soon... they might not be able to leave at all in a bit.

Tian Xiaowu observed and found Jiang Xianwu still very calm.

He also calmed down, even though an army was charging at him, he still calmly asked:

"What does that red light represent?"

"According to what I know about Dawn of Fear, the red light source mostly originates from a portal."

Zhou Baiyu continued:

"If we don't try to take control of the portal and clear the nearby monsters... I fear our Cross Base, and those pioneers will face a calamity beyond imagination."

Upon hearing this, Snow Demon got so scared that her speech became incoherent:

"Jiang Jiang Jiang... Brother Jiang, but I can't affect these monsters now."

The foremost monster, a B-grade jailer shimmering in green light, was one of its kind among the B-grade jailers.

It possessed some very troublesome rare attributes.

Snow Demon's bullets had landed on it, but this time, even for a lucky Snow Demon, it only forced out a -1 damage.

If they retreated, losing the portal, the base would inevitably be breached.

But if they didn't retreat, in a matter of seconds, the monsters would surround them, and then they might not be able to leave at all.

In such a desperate situation, Xunmeng Wuchang suddenly felt a familiar sensation.

It was at this moment he noticed that, unbeknownst when, Zhou Baiyu, whose weapon was originally a one-handed sword, had chosen to hold it with both hands.

Similarly, when a Mutator was about to mutate an item— they would also hold it with both hands.

"Snow Demon, you've already done very well, at least helping me save a lot of energy."

Everyone was puzzled, only to be astonished that at this moment, Jiang Xianwu did not retreat but advanced instead.

Holding his one-handed sword that emitted an orange glow, Jiang Xianwu looked at the B-grade jailer in the huge dungeon just a few yards away from him and said with a mild smile:

"Now you can rest well; your Brother Jiang will take care of everything."

Wielding the Mutated Sword in his hand, it was an extremely ordinary Shock Wave initiation move.

Yet it was such an ordinary move that allowed Zhou Baiyu, under the perplexed gazes of Tian Xiaowu and others... to deal astonishing damage.

A damage almost reaching the game's numerical damage cap.

Damage score: -1.

Unit, trillion.
