How come there are succubi in this dungeon?

Chapter 50 Battle 2

His talent was at work; magic spontaneously converged on his body. The magical lava, which would be a deadly threat to ordinary adventurers, felt like stepping on spring water to Altai, and instead restored his condition.

"Giant Leap!"

Altai leaped up, soaring a hundred meters high, and landed at the same level as the head of the Fiery Demon wielding the greatsword. He was the first adventurer to reach this spot.

Other adventurers weren't lacking in ability; their concern was losing the ability to compete for treasure chests after being injured, fearing that someone else would snatch the rewards from them in the end.

Altai, on the other hand, doesn't think about all that; he's just enjoying the battle!

"Giant Trample!"

Magic flowed through Altai's body in a way unique to the giant race. His feet glowed and heated up, gaining immense 'mass' that could damage pure elemental bodies and also attack the soul.

He stomped hard on the Flame Demon's golden eyes, intending to severely injure his opponent.

Just then, the Balrog's enormous arm swiftly reached out and grabbed Altai.

The giant felt his bones groan in pain as his feet dug deep into the Balrog's armor, but he failed to break through the enemy's armor. Instead, he was about to be crushed by the Balrog's slowly tightening hand.

"Giant Slayer!"

Altai had no choice but to use the secret technique of the giant race, his body suddenly expanding, opening up the Flame Demon's palm, and growing to twenty meters in the wind.

Giant Slayer is an extremely valuable "self-destruct skill" that grants a huge boost to combat power by burning life force.

Even Altai could only use this skill for a few minutes, otherwise he would be burned alive.

But the effect was significant. Altai avoided being crushed to death, but was then slashed away by the Balrog's sword, nearly being cut in two.

The gap at level 21 is still too large, especially since the enemy is a top-tier race like the Balrog, whose talents are maxed out by Caesar.

The Balrog wanted to press his advantage, but the other adventurers seized the opportunity and unleashed a barrage of magic. Several level 50 adventurer leaders also took action, all within a few breaths.

The Flame Demon's greatsword was shattered by an adventurer's spear, and its core was cooled by the person who had previously cast the Ice and Snow spell.

The fire demons extinguished their flames unwillingly and disappeared, leaving only three fire demons on the field.

Just as the adventurers were invigorated, the mages suddenly raised their voices and added the final incantation to the magic circle.

"Burning the Heavens!"

This is the Flame Demon's self-destruct talent. Currently, it is limited by the dungeon and cannot break through its rank, but the violent energy is released through the magic circle, turning into a raging flame that devours everything.

A sea of ​​fire descended from the sky, turning the surrounding area for kilometers into a living hell. Countless adventurers were burned to ashes before they could react. Even Altai could not escape the flames, his skin melting and parts of his flesh turning into charcoal.

This resulted in heavy casualties among the adventurers, reducing their numbers by half.

"Wow, that's amazing! As expected, the boss is really good at earning life points."

Oria discovered that to defeat these four fire demons and obtain the rewards inside the treasure chests, adventurers would need to expend significantly more life force than for a single ordinary reward.

Even if professional strategy teams emerge in the future, Olivia believes that Caesar will come up with new tricks; the Lord of the Dungeons never makes a losing proposition.

"What are you two doing?"

Caesar's unfriendly voice suddenly rang out, startling the two people who were sitting relaxed watching the show, causing them to jump up from the rocks.

"Boss, we don't have magic, so we can only watch the show," Olya explained.

"Go in and beat him."

"Boss, why are you even sabotaging your subordinates' life force?"

The two reluctantly jumped into the battlefield, which they saw as no different from suicide.

The next second, they stepped into a teleportation trap and were teleported away.

They were still in the trial area, but far from the battlefield, on the outskirts of the trial area.

There aren't many high-level monsters there, so even level 20 adventurers have a chance to survive.

The difficulty of each level generally increases the closer you get to the treasure chest. Caesar has also included quite a few small rewards in the map, such as the exquisite sword from the previous North Dungeon.

However, these rewards did not shine as brightly as the final reward. Instead, they were like ordinary treasure chests, emitting a faint white light that could not be seen from three meters away.

These small rewards exist to prevent this place from becoming solely a destination for adventure groups aiming for the final reward. This would cause a significant drop in revenue for the area, and could even lead to losses.

However, getting the small treasure chest is one thing, but to get out, someone still needs to get the final reward.

After dealing with Olya and the other two, Caesar turned his attention back to the battlefield.

He discovered that the bloodline of this legendary species was truly overpowered, even more so than Willis in terms of resilience. However, in a fight, a hero of the same level would definitely have the upper hand, as the hero was too well-rounded, and in terms of pure physical stats, not much inferior to the giant royal family.

Altai charged in and out of the battlefield seven times. The two remaining fire demons almost killed him several times, but his unreasonable vitality pulled them back.

Of course, this was partly due to Caesar's deliberate manipulation and interference from other adventurers.

However, the Balrog was no pushover. After Caesar completed his initial observations, one of the Balrogs was finally able to unleash its full power, whipping off the giant's head.

The giant felt his vision reverse for about ten seconds before realizing he had fallen off his neck. His talent allowed him to survive for almost half a minute after his head fell off before dying, demonstrating his remarkable resilience.

After defeating the giant, the Balrog and the adventurers were locked in a protracted battle. As expected, the Balrog would soon be worn down by the continuous influx of adventurers.

In the dungeon, the monsters are powerless, after all, there are endless adventurers, with endless opportunities to try and fail and endless forces.

Caesar no longer focused on the battlefield, the outcome of which was already predictable, but instead began to devote all his energy to analyzing all the data left behind by the giants after their deaths.

"It seems that the basic composition of their bloodline is not much different from that of other races..."

Caesar studied the connection between "talent" and "bloodline," explaining it using knowledge from his past life.

Some organisms have cells that are naturally more likely to absorb magic and use it to strengthen their bodies. Their cells have several additional structures, like miniature magical organs.

The different efficiency and directions of these magical organs determine the manifestation of a creature's talents.

For example, the Balrog's transformation talent is because there is a miniature volcano in their cells, which allows them to transform between elements and physical matter.

Once they reach a certain level, they can unlock this organ.

This is how all monster classes work; the talents for each rank are determined from the very beginning.

However, the races that can obtain different classes, such as humans and elves, are different.
