But Hiyama's voice remained cold.
Shea's Future Sight skill had the highest chance of activating when she encountered a life-threatening situation.
Hearing Hiyama's cold and heartless words, Shea's rabbit ears drooped, and she walked forward resignedly.
"There's nothing to be afraid of, Shea, you can do it."
Shea encouraged herself... Along this path, Shea successively encountered falling rocks, oily slopes, falling ceilings, and other traps... Finally, she arrived at a large room with an altar, where she was pursued by over fifty Magic Puppets guarding it, barely managing to escape through the room's only door.
Then... after opening the door, she found herself back at the starting point, where Hiyama and the others were waiting for her.
All of the above... Shea said while crying in Yue's arms.
"Shea really thought she was going to die!"
"Wuwuwu... Thankfully, when I was being chased by the Golem Knights, my Future Sight finally activated."
"If you take the leftmost path, you can reach the final room."
With Shea's words, Hiyama finally showed a slight smile, reaching out to stroke her soft, slightly blue-tinged white hair and rabbit ears, saying, "Well done, next time you can ask me for one favor."
"Huh? Really?"
"Hehehe... When the time comes, I'll make Hiyama do this and that..."
Shea's mood instantly brightened after the rain, and she said foolishly.
"Don't get carried away, incontinent rabbit."
Miss Yue said coldly from the side.
"In-incontinent rabbit! No matter what, I can't accept that title!"
Shea protested vehemently.
Unfortunately, Miss Yue turned her head away and completely ignored her... According to Shea's prophecy, they chose to take the leftmost path.
Although this path also had many traps, according to Shea, it was already significantly fewer than the other paths.
Finally, they arrived at a room sealed with a large number of Knight Puppets, except this room was different from the one Shea had been to... Instead of a door at the back of the room, there was a wide passage.
"It seems we've found the right place."
Hiyama walked forward, and as soon as he stepped into the room, he triggered the mechanism for these Knight Puppets.
They stood in countless alcoves on both sides of the wall, dressed in knight armor, equipped with greatswords and shields, and as the mechanism activated, the knights emerged from the alcoves.
Their number totaled over fifty.
The knights crouched low, holding their shields in front of them and raising their greatswords forward, assuming a battle stance.
Moreover, their actions appeared very organized, like real knights, they slid their feet, gradually narrowing the encirclement.
"Hmph hmph, this time Shea will definitely redeem herself!"
Shea pulled out her 100-ton black hammer, raised the super-heavy black hammer, and leaped up, carrying the force of thunder, she swung a destructive blow without any hesitation or mercy.
"Hoo ah ah ah!"
Shea unleashed a full-power strike, swinging the 100-ton hammer, and after an alarming impact sound, one Knight Magic Puppet was crushed and flattened.
Although the knight had raised its shield over its head to block, it still couldn't resist Shea's heavy hammer, which carried a force of vibration.
The black hammer, embedded in the ground, created cracks.
Another knight, who had been holding a shield nearby to absorb the impact, swung its greatsword widely, stepping forward, intending to cleave Shea in two.
Shea confirmed the knight's movement with her peripheral vision.
She released her grip on the hammer, and a soft white glow emanated from her hands as she punched the knight in its side.
Boom! The knight, struck directly, had its body twisted into a V-shape.
It flew out as if run over by a speeding truck, affecting the knights approaching from behind, knocking them to the ground.
"Hmph, you all deserve it!"
With teammates, Shea was no longer a rabbit who would only cower and scurry away.
Her courage doubled, and she showed no fear facing the hordes of knight-type Magic Puppets.
"Hiyama, did you see that..."
But Shea had a weakness, which was... she was prone to getting carried away.
She turned back, wanting to show off her achievements to Hiyama and the others, but unexpectedly, a knight threw a shield at her at that moment.
By the time she snapped back to reality, the rapidly approaching knight's shield had already covered her vision.
Shea hadn't expected the Puppet Knight to throw its shield.
Even a real knight wouldn't use such a crude combat method.
She didn't even have time to think, "Oh no!"
Just as she was about to grit her teeth and take the hit.
"Water Blade."
A jet of water, like a high-pressure water gun, sprayed out, colliding with the shield and cutting it in half.
"...Careless rabbit, you'll be punished later."
"Huh! Was that Miss Yue just now? I-I'm sorry...! Thank you very much! ...Huh, why is there still a punishment?!"
Shea exclaimed in surprise.
"...You must not let your guard down."
"Ugh..., yes! I'll do my best!"
After being lectured by Miss Yue like a scolding child, Shea realized she had been a bit arrogant and careless.
Chapter 83: Acting Spoiled?
As she reflected and regained her spirits, a blade-like stream of water shot from behind to strike down the approaching Puppet Knight.
And that stream of water cleanly split in half the Puppet Knight that had been quietly trying to approach Shea from behind.
Shea's explosive close-range attack power, combined with Miss Yue's water blade, which she shot to cover Shea's blind spots, meant the knights couldn't break through their combined attack and could only be wantonly destroyed.
However, after these knights were destroyed, a light identical to their eyes instantly resided throughout their bodies, and then in the blink of an eye, they regenerated and rejoined the battle.
"How can this be! This will never end!"
Shea cried out in distress while sweeping away the approaching Puppet Knights.
Contrary to her reaction, Miss Yue remained calm, not showing any particular panic, because she saw Hiyama constantly observing with his arms crossed.
As expected, "These Knight Puppets cannot be defeated by ordinary methods."
Hiyama said, and told the two of them to step back.
These knights were actually Magic Puppets cast using "Sense Stones."
The characteristic of these stones was... they could attract each other like magnets, and the entire room here was a Alchemy array.
Therefore, no matter how many times they were destroyed, they could reshape their forms or replenish missing parts.
Rather than Regeneration, it was closer to reconstruction, so there was almost no way to destroy them.
"Hehe, are you two at a loss?"
"Are you mad? Are you mad?"
Milady Reisen's taunting sign popped out at just the right moment, making Shea furious.
"The mischief should end now."
Hiyama took out the Demon Sword Red Sakura from his magic space; this was Elusa's only weapon that didn't require matching armor, so sharp it could cut hair, incredibly keen.
But Hiyama didn't take it out now to rely on its sharpness to kill these knights; in fact, taking out any weapon made no difference to him.
Hiyama closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his pupils had turned a deep, rich blue.
His vision had completely changed, with countless graffiti-like lines spread throughout the room.
The lines connected with the Magic Knights, looking very chaotic and complex, like lines drawn casually by a child's paintbrush.
Hiyama swung the Demon Sword Red Sakura, cutting through these lines, which were hidden in an unknown world, in the blink of an eye.
These Magic Puppet Knights had no room to react; they directly suffered an irresistible causal attack brought by the Direct Death Magic Eye.
Like puppets broken and disassembled by a mischievous child, all the knights instantly shattered into pieces.
At the same time, the magic patterns inscribed within these knights began to glow, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't make these stone fragments reassemble.
"Hiyama is so amazing! How did he do that?!"
Shea's pupils glowed as she rushed up and tightly hugged Hiyama's arm; her pure white nurse uniform coupled with her innocent smile was truly alluring.
"You lewd rabbit..."
The Vampire Princess said with a hint of jealousy.
"I can't teach you this move."
Hiyama laughed, feeling the softness on his arm.
After defeating the Magic Knight Puppets in this room, Hiyama and the others continued along the passage deep inside the room.
The passage ahead seemed to open into a huge space; the passage itself had ended, with a bottomless void below, and about ten meters ahead, a T-shaped platform could be seen.
"Hey!"
Shea, with her excellent physical abilities, leaped across first.
Followed by Yue and Hiyama.
"Hmm?"
"What's wrong, Miss Yue?"
Hiyama turned back, only to find Miss Yue standing at the edge, hesitating.
"I can't jump across, Darling. Can you carry me over?"
The blonde Vampire Princess extended her two arms, like white lotus roots, her ruby-like pupils gazing directly at Hiyama, acting spoiled.
As a vampire, her physical abilities were indeed not strong, and coupled with her petite stature, it was understandable that she couldn't jump that distance.
"Uh... Miss Yue, aren't you able to fly with magic...?"
"Eek! I'm sorry...!"
Before Shea could finish speaking, Miss Yue's cold gaze, mixed with killing intent, had already fallen upon her.
Startled, Shea quickly hid behind Yue, not daring to say another word.
"You really like to act spoiled."
Hiyama shook his head and gave a wry smile.
