――It's so convenient to not use electricity

This layer is hard. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info is not only reflected in the mobs, but there are also some mazes that will be equipped with a lot fewer things than the previous layers. As the top floor of the labyrinth, this floor is also the boss room, which is still the best tradition of the past, and the area is still outrageously large, and there is only one safe area. However, the most annoying thing is that the place is set on the edge of the labyrinth area, which is made to resemble a balcony and extends out.

It's nothing if this setting is changed to another layer, but the main scene of this layer is the Gobi and the desert, and the higher the place, the more terrible the sun is, plus the oncoming wind and sand, no one has that leisure to rest.

A rather nasty setting.

At least Lord Death doesn't think this place is any better. But it's a pity that he can only choose here. The spawn rate of this layer of mobs is still very high, and he doesn't want a gargoylum to pop up while he and Asuna are talking, that would be too sparkling.

After cleaning up the mobs guarding the "balcony" with two knives in his hand, Lord Death walked out without looking back. The wind hung strongly, and the fine sand mixed in it scraped his face painfully. There is nothing on this large balcony, and the materials are very rudimentary, ordinary stones, and you can still feel the burning sensation when you step on it. The only consolation is that there is still a railing on the edge, so that Lord Death can habitually lean on the railing and look into the distance where there is nothing.

Asuna had always disliked this place, but she carefully pressed the hem of her skirt and followed behind Lord Death. She sensed the strange atmosphere that permeated the two of them, coupled with the wind and sand that seemed to be quite unpleasant with a single mouth, Asuna chose to remain silent, quietly behind Lord Death.

She was watching Lord Death all the time, so she knew very well the psychological changes of Lord Death at every moment. Perhaps even Lord Death himself was unaware of the inevitable wavering he had in that moment. That's more obvious than a firefly in the night. Lady Death had never had that look before.

So she was waiting, waiting for the moment when Lord Death told her. She had made all the mental preparations a long time ago, and whatever she heard, she confidently accepted it calmly.

A meaningless but necessary self-confidence. The pride in her heart did not allow her to show any weakness in front of Lord Death.

I don't know how long Lord Death thought about it, and finally looked up at the sky, while silently counting something. When he was done, he stretched and said, "It's time for them to come over." ”

Asuna blinked, and then realized that Lord Death was referring to the players in the Raiders group. glanced at the time, but found that more than an hour had passed, and it was indeed almost time, so he gently patted off the dust on his clothes and love sword.

"Are you going?" Lord Death asked.

"Yes." Asuna nodded.

"Yes." After Lord Death finished speaking, he was gone. In fact, after being here for so long, he looked even worse than Asuna, and there was hardly any place in his body that was free of sand. But he didn't bother to tidy it up. On the contrary, after Asuna cleaned up the dust on her body, she helped Lord Death clean up as a matter of course, even more carefully than herself.

Finally, after Asuna cleaned the dust from the Grim Reaper's shoulders, the Grim Reaper suddenly spoke, "I'll be away for a while, I don't know when I'll be back." ”

Asuna asked without looking up, "Will you come back?" ”

"I don't know." Lord Death honestly replied, "Maybe, maybe not." But I'll try my best. ”

"That's right." Asuna let out a long sigh of relief and stopped what she was doing. At least she'd cleared everything she could see. However, Lord Death refused to turn around, and she had no way to continue, so she had to lean against the railing like Lord Death. Only then could she see the face of Lord Death.

Unfortunately, it was something she couldn't understand. Lord Death's face did not waver, and it was terrifyingly calm. But it was also in this way that Asuna felt the heaviness between the two. Because Lord Death rarely does this, even if he doesn't smile, he won't keep his face calm like this, and he looks more like he is in a half-asleep state, quite leisurely.

"I'll be back...... Wait for me. So, don't die. Lord Death said softly.

Asuna was stunned, but soon laughed, "Well, I'll wait for you." ”

Asuna left. She can be said to have escaped the meeting, but she still has to go back to participate in the raiders anyway. If she was only afraid or thinking, she would never be able to move forward, and she chose reason over emotion. She knew that she didn't have time to stop, she could only keep walking and even running forward, only then could she get a glimpse of Lord Death's back.

She thinks she's crazy, but she's deeply in love with that crazy feeling. She never felt how empty it was to level up mechanically, or even how boring it was, she could endure it. Nothing can be done without paying any price.

Lord Death still looked up at the sky, patted his hair after thinking about it, took out a bottle of water from his notes, and carefully washed his hands and face. It should be about the time he made an appointment with Lord Luna.

Luna-sama was punctual and didn't keep Lady Death waiting too long. Luna-sama, who appeared on the blue flames, was obviously not interested in talking nonsense with Lord Death, and roughly pulled Lord Death to the door.

Luna-sama's hands were cold, so cold that they startled Death-sama, as if she had suddenly touched a block of ice. But unlike the ice cubes, Luna-sama's hands are soft, which fits the girl's appearance perfectly.

After entering the door, there is still a long way to go. It was dark, and the road was gloomy, only the dark yellow chandeliers were lit on both sides of the road, and the scene looked similar to that of the wilderness, which was very much in line with the image of hell in the heart of Lord Death. The only thing that made Lord Death feel more pity was that he didn't see the Wandering Ghost or anything on the way. But it's right to think about it carefully, if there were, I should have been arrested and reincarnated, which round was seen by him.

Mistress Luna had apparently walked many times, navigating around bends with ease. After walking for more than ten minutes, Lord Death finally saw the real hell in sight.

Only then did he realize that he was naïve. Death is also a kind of living being, and the reason why the sky is dark is only because of the environment, which has nothing to do with their habits.

In the distance, he saw the majestic town, and the light that still lit up the sky through the walls. There was not the slightest eerie atmosphere in that important town, but it was inexplicably lively, and it looked very festive.

Luna slowed down, glanced back at Lord Death, and complained, "How dirty are you, what a shame on me." ”

"It's like this after standing in the desert for a long time." Lord Death replied with an innocent face. He was glad that he had washed his face and hands in the first place.

"Forget it, it's too late, so be it." Mistress Luna shook her head, "It's your first time here, so I'll tell you about it." This is our only main city, Hell. It also has a nickname, do you know what it is? ”

"What?" Lord Death didn't guess, and it wouldn't be easy if he did.

"The city that never sleeps. Although we have a holiday, we never sleep, so it doesn't matter morning or night. Our department is the most laid-back, with six days off and only one day of work. I guess this is the reason why the woman kept looking at me unhappy. Mistress Luna smirked.

Although Lord Death didn't think it was anything to be praised, he nodded thoughtfully.

"Today is a department-wide holiday, so everyone will gather to watch your game, don't lose." Lord Luna patted Lord Death on the shoulder and waved at the men on the wall, motioning for them to open the gates.

"Yes." Lord Death nodded silently.

He's not going to lose.
