Right in front of Ronald.

In the cavern, which has been enlarged quite a bit, the walls, the floor, and the ice overhead, everywhere that can be seen, is covered with a layer of slime that is not too thick, but very impressive.

And in such a space, several creatures with completely different looks and painting styles are standing there.

“……”

These minions apparently spotted Ronald's arrival.

But perhaps due to the rapid demise of the other companions underground, these guys did not dare to step forward directly, but just watched Ronald standing at the entrance of the cave with a dangerous and fearful gaze.

"What the hell is this......

Looking at the scene in front of him, Ronald was also carefully estimating the situation in his heart.

Is this the slime that covers the entire cavern, the trap for themselves, or is it a unique means that these minions use to change their environment and make their lives more comfortable?

To be on the safe side, Ronald once again activated the original sin of greed in the Purgatory Chapter.

- Myersella.

- Miles' Lair Creatures.

- Used to alter the environment and create a more suitable living environment for the main race of Miles, sensing and attacking intruders.

What is this?

Zerg lair?

The specific information of the things in front of you is revealed by the spell at a glance.

Ronald's choice is naturally simple.

He immediately grasped the hilt of the sword of Santa Caterina with both hands, then aimed the blade at the ground at the entrance to the cave, and then plunged the sword down!

Whew-

The fungus itself is also a living organism, and it belongs to the type that can be incinerated by the power of the sun.

So when Ronald plunged the blade into the ground, the blazing flames immediately attached itself to the surroundings and spread directly around, chasing and burning the fungus that spread throughout the cavern.

These are the bacteria that have the ability to attack invaders.

Didn't sit still.

When incinerated by the flames of the Sun's Power, they show their ability to move, frequently reaching out with sharp protrusions to slap the flames in an attempt to extinguish them.

It's a pity that the [Power of the Sun] is not extraordinary.

Rather than extinguishing it, it spreads flames when it is struck, spreading the source of fire to other locations at a faster rate.

Just a few breaths.

The entire open cavern had been reduced to a paradise of flames, and even Ronald, the caster, felt a little difficult to breathe when his face was shining on his face by the overwhelming light of the fire.

"Shhhh

Seeing that his carefully arranged nest was burned.

Those summoned creatures who are watching Ronald with intent, of course, can't be indifferent.

Almost in the mood of doom, they rushed straight towards Ronald, and the surface of their bodies, which had looked quite soft, instantly hardened like these bacteria, and extended some dangerous poisonous spikes.

“……”

"That's not enough......"

Ronald shook his head slightly, and then walked head-on.

The surrounding flames of the [Solar Power] seemed to sense the coming of their master, and while Ronald slowly walked forward, they took the initiative to separate to the sides.

In this way, he stepped on the pitch-black remains after the burning of the fungus, and his body was surrounded by flames.

Ronald aimed at the enemy and swung his sword upward.

In just an instant, all sixteen summoned creatures in the lair were annihilated.

Under the absolute power gap.

The effort spent at this moment, compared to cleaning up the summoned creatures in the tunnel before, is just an extra matter of burning these bacteria.

Smack-

All signs in the cave were about to be burned by the flames.

As Ronald prepared to move forward, he paused slightly.

The detection spell he mainly activated at the moment was still the [Astrolabe] of "Astronomy", and the detection range of the power of 'rage' in "Divine Comedy" was correspondingly shrunk by a part.

But at this moment.

The power of 'rage' sent feedback to Ronald.

In a cavern deeper underground, signs of human activity were finally detected.

There were four human spellcasters, and they were about three hundred meters below Ronald at the moment. Their current mental state is languishing, as if they are in a half-asleep coma.

……

It should be the minions that control the sanity of these people.

Ronald reacted immediately.

After all, it was intended for these spellcasters to open new summoning doors, and if these humans didn't want to cooperate, it wouldn't be a surprise that the summoned creatures controlled them.

Seeing such a major discovery.

Ronald immediately readjusted his downward course.

After locking his first target to the position where the human spellcaster was imprisoned, he flicked it back to the blade of the [Sunlight Power] that had burned the cave with a flick of one hand, and then quickened his pace and continued downward.

……

Then it was a breakthrough all the way without any suspense.

Even though they passed through several sizable underground spaces, none of these minions could delay Ronald for more than three minutes.

And when Ronald continued downward, he passed two more tunnel corners.

He also finally arrived at his destination.

Came to the place where the human spellcasters were imprisoned.

This is probably the largest space in the entire underground structure.

At the center and back of the cavern, an altar of ice and rock is being built, and most of the work is now complete.

Ronald swept his gaze.

Everything in the cave is also in view.

Unlike the previous caves where one group gathers one place at a time, all kinds of summoned creatures can be seen here.

Presumably as the core of the entire underground base, in the event of a powerful invasion of foreign enemies, the leaders of each summoned species have gathered in this most important place to achieve the goal of gathering forces to deal with the enemy.

And to the left of the altar and these minions.

Four human spellcasters stood by the wall, and the fungus that Ronald had just cleaned covered a just the right area around him, trapping several human bodies tightly in the fungus.

“……”

"Human, you shouldn't be here!"

At this moment, the leader of the summoned creatures spoke.

It is a unique creature that bears a striking resemblance to a human, with only a large number of diamond-shaped crystals covering its skin.

"The overlap of the two worlds is a historical process, and no attempt to stop this phenomenon is nothing more than a struggle of self-determination."

"Driven by fate, no one can stop this."

"Fate?"

Hearing the other party's admonishing speech, Ronald raised an eyebrow.

Then he swung his hand holding the sword of Santa Caterina downward, and the [Power of the Sun] covered on it also surged again.

"My maid seems to have a spell that can interfere with fate."

"Are you sure you're right?"
