Chapter 1733 1733: Another Door

"Shadow Kick!"

"Dragon Break Slash!"

"Yama's Fatal Kill!"

"Thunderbolt Spell!"

...

With a commanding shout from Fearless, Vainglory and Boson jumped up and attacked the Demon of Slaughter with a series of powerful moves.

Although the Demon of Slaughter was a strength-type monster, it had only three million health points. After taking a full combo from the Quan Zhen group, its health dropped by a third in an instant.

"Zzzz!!"

However, almost simultaneously, the Tyrant's Grief raised its skeletal staff, and a black lightning halo appeared around the Demon of Slaughter.

Except for the mage Ming Du, the others, being melee Pugilists, were caught off guard and all took the hit.

Boson fared better since he was a Warrior, naturally having high health and defense. Although it hurt, it wasn't too severe. But Vainglory, Darknorth Fisher, and Frost Blade were definitely squishy.

After being hit by the lightning, the three were instantly reduced to low health.

At that moment, the Tyrant's Grief waved its skeletal staff, summoning a black box from thin air.

"Creak!"

As the lid opened, a spherical lightning bolt shot out from the box, striking Crotch Lord's shield.

Crotch Lord, holding a shield, was unharmed, but the lightning ball didn't disappear after hitting him; instead, it bounced back and hit Boson, instantly reducing him to low health.

Then that lightning ball bounced towards the closest Vainglory and the others.

Seeing this, Vainglory and the other three felt extremely frustrated.

Great, this little monster can actually coordinate... After facing so many challenges, dying to a minor monster would be incredibly unfair.

"Frost Blade, vanish!"

Darknorth Fisher, being a skilled player, quickly used Earth Escape, burrowing underground while also reminding Frost Blade how to respond.

Frost Blade immediately activated [Vanish].

When the disappearance skill is used, there is a three-second invincibility period. The lightning ball hitting Frost Blade also dealt no damage.

As for Vainglory, it was a bit more tragic. As a martial artist, he had shorter attack range and thinner health compared to Warriors. He could endure the hit, but what he couldn't tolerate was that martial artists were the only class among the seven without a survival skill.

While Frost Blade could disappear and become invincible, Vainglory had to rely on his stubbornness to endure.

Seeing the lightning ball about to eliminate Vainglory, a beam of holy light descended from the sky, enveloping him.

"Poof..."

The lightning ball collided with the holy light, silently vanishing before everyone's eyes.

Fearless commanded, "Sanguine, retreat; Spring Brother and Old Two, hold the Bullhead; everyone else, focus on killing the mage!"

As he spoke, Fearless directed a [Sacred Flame] toward the Tyrant's Grief, which floated and struck the Tyrant's Grief on the head.

"..."

A string of ellipses appeared above the Tyrant's Grief's head, clearly indicating that it had been silenced.

A silenced mage cannot cast spells; without skills, a mage becomes a moving target.

Ling Longmeng shot an arrow to pin down the Tyrant's Grief, while Yang Nuo and Ming Du unleashed a wave of attacks that nearly killed the Tyrant's Grief. After two rounds of skills, they reduced it to ashes.

Under the control of Spring Halo and Crotch Lord, the Demon of Slaughter was firmly restrained. Without the Tyrant's Grief causing trouble, it couldn't create any significant waves.

Fearless calmly healed the Quan Zhen members to full health, and everyone rushed in, completely annihilating the Demon of Slaughter.

Meanwhile, not far away, Wang Yu had also managed to kill the Source of Plague.

Though demon monsters appeared ugly and had strong attacks, they did not respawn, making them much more reasonable than the divine monsters.

After the first wave, the second wave was a breeze.

Wang Yu held onto the Source of Plague while the others split into two groups to deal with the Demon of Slaughter and the Tyrant's Grief. In just over half an hour, all the monsters in the Lost Paradise had been wiped out by the Quan Zhen group.

Dawn's First Ray and Young Master Beijing had a free front-row seat to witness the battle of top-tier experts.

After clearing the minor monsters, everyone followed the iron plates beneath their feet to the end of the Lost Paradise, which was marked by an extremely heavy iron door.

This door stood at least seven or eight meters high and five or six meters wide, black and imposing, giving an invisible sense of pressure.

Strangely enough, this large iron door had no lock or gaps, standing there as if it had appeared out of nowhere.

"Another one of these?"

Seeing the door at the end of the path, the Quan Zhen group couldn't help but chuckle. The same trick used against the Saint Warriors wouldn't work twice; having been fooled by the system in the Eden, they wouldn't fall for it again this time.

"Break it down!" Fearless stood before the door and gestured to Boson and Crotch Lord.

Receiving the command, Boson and Crotch Lord bent down, charging at the door from both sides.

"Boom!!"

With a loud crash, the two collided solidly with the door, and then a ring of mosquito coils appeared above their heads.

Damn it, these two knocked themselves out, while the door didn't budge an inch, not even shaking.

"Eh? Could it be that we're not opening it the right way?"

Seeing the door still standing, everyone was momentarily stunned. Fearless couldn't help but frown, stroking his chin and muttering, "The demon and divine races are opposites; if brute force doesn't work, we should try magic."

"Yeah!"

Ming Du stepped to the front of the group, raising his staff in his left hand while forming a spell with his right.

"Rumble!"

A thunderous sound echoed.

A lightning bolt, thicker than usual, was summoned by Ming Du and heavily struck the iron door.

However, just like before, the large iron door flashed with light, revealing strange runic symbols, and Ming Du's Thunderbolt Spell vanished without a trace as if it had hit a bottomless ocean.

The door didn't just fail to be blown open; it didn't even produce a sound from the impact.

"This... what the hell is going on?"

Seeing this scene, everyone was left speechless, and even Fearless found it hard to believe.

By common sense, doors can either be opened with lock-picking skills or by brute force. If brute force fails, magic should still yield results.

But this door before them had no lock and didn't react to either force or magic, which was quite frustrating.

"I think", Fearless pondered, "this door is similar to the door in Eden; the key to opening it should be nearby."

"But there are no elves here", Ming Du said, looking around with skepticism.

Eden was a proper garden, with winding paths that could hide many creatures, but this Lost Paradise was just a grand hall, clear at a glance. Apart from the monsters killed by the group, there were no other creatures around.

"Who says it has to be elves?" Fearless countered. "What if there are mechanisms?"
