After successfully taking down one Phantom Knight, the other four women, seeing Lin Tian's actions, also switched their right-hand swords to Twilight Scepters.
Before long, the five of them successfully drained all six Phantom Knights dry using this novel (and despicable) method.
After dealing with the six Phantom Knights, Lin Tian began to inspect his spoils.
Unlike other bosses, the Phantom Knight's loot is stored in chests.
Lin Tian: The most polite Boss. Even after dying, he neatly organized his belongings and put them in a box for us to see. Thumbs up! Other Bosses should learn from Phantom Knight.
The loot this time consists of equipment and weapons, as well as a Phantom Knight trophy, which is actually a 3D version of its helmet.
These equipment and weapons are acceptable, since they are all enchanted, and the pickaxe is even an Efficiency III, which is alright.
........
Lin Tian and his group of five returned to the entrance where they had come down.
"Next up is the final side boss—the Twilight Ghast."
Lin Tian spoke in a somewhat serious tone.
Upon hearing the word "evil spirit," the four women trembled. They still remembered the first time they encountered an evil spirit, which was arguably the most terrifying creature in the world.
(Of course, this is without having seen the Guardians and the Ancient Guardians, since the protagonist hasn't taken them to the sea or searched for the underwater temple.)
However, they can now look directly at evil spirits, having seen them so many times that they've become numb to them.
Now, unless you start with a zero-frame attack and get right in front of them, you're completely unaffected.
Seeing the expressions on the four women's faces, Lin Tian knew they didn't care much. "Don't underestimate the Twilight Ghast. It's not like those ordinary, weak ghasts!"
Then, Lin Tian explained in detail to the four women the abilities of the Twilight Evil Soul Society and the possible consequences of other adverse factors.
After hearing Lin Tian's words, the four women realized they had indeed underestimated the Twilight Evil Spirit. Its ability to summon smaller evil spirits to heal itself was already rather disgusting, and besides, the castle was made of wood! What if they accidentally slipped and fell... that wouldn't be funny!
But the most important thing now is to find the Dark Tower.
The five of them ventured deeper into the interior. The progress of the three side quests was actually quite similar, following a pattern of one boss on the outer perimeter and one boss in the inner circle.
After walking for a short while, Kanao saw a wall with red patterns and immediately called out to the four people who were still walking inside.
"Everyone, I think I see it."
Upon hearing this, the four stopped and looked in the direction Kanao was pointing. There was indeed a wall with red patterns on it, which looked very illusory.
"That's right, that's it!" The moment Lin Tian saw the red-patterned wall, he recognized it as the entrance to the Dark Tower.
Having determined their destination, the five began their journey towards the Dark Tower.
........
"Brother Lin Tian, how much longer? Why aren't we there yet?" Kanzaki Aoi complained.
They had been walking for almost an hour and still couldn't find the way up.
"Hmm...we seem to be lost, and the Dark Tower doesn't seem to have...stairs or anything to go up."
As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, he was immediately met with stares from the four women.
"Why didn't you say so sooner?!" *4.
In the end, the five of them decided to climb to the highest point and dig open the ceiling.
Looking around at the scenery, Lin Tian fell silent, because they were in a tower that was off-center.
Lin Tian didn't speak, nor did the four women. They all continued to place blocks on top of each other, ready to shoot any unruly evil spirits that dared to wander off!
Finally! The five of them reached the top of the Dark Tower.
Before the five could even rejoice, a demon at least seven or eight times the size of the smaller demons they had just encountered appeared right in their line of sight.
Upon seeing this thing up close, the five of them were stunned. This Twilight Ghoul was not only much larger than those ordinary ghouls, but it also had two more tentacles, and its entire body was covered with strange red patterns.
Kanzaki Aoi's eyes rolled back, and she fainted on the ground. Even those who had seen this kind of thing many times were stunned by the sudden close contact.
(Imagine an eye bigger than a door suddenly appearing in front of you, even right next to your body.)
(I really don't believe anyone isn't afraid of this kind of face-to-face contact, especially zero-distance face-to-face contact, unless they are born without any fear.)
Lin Tian bit his tongue hard, the intense pain bringing him back to his senses, and a trickle of blood escaped from the corner of his mouth.
I almost bit off my own tongue.
Seeing the Twilight Evil already flying into the sky, and the three girls still in a daze, he immediately woke them up. At the same time, he pinched Kanzaki Aoi's philtrum. Now was not the time to be unconscious! If they were hit by a fireball from the Evil, the chance of falling would be almost 99%.
When Kanzaki Aoi woke up, she was terrified and breathing heavily, but then she realized that the Twilight Evil had already flown into the sky, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why...why...is this summoning thing...appearing right in front of me?!"
Shinobu's voice trembled slightly, but she was trying to adjust. She was completely stunned by the sudden appearance of the Twilight Demon. If this thing had been in the air, she might not have been so afraid, since it was just a bit bigger and looked similar to the little demons they had just encountered.
At this moment, the Twilight Wraith began to spit fireballs, and the surrounding area burst into flames.
"Time is of the essence, so I'll get straight to the point. There are four reactors in the four rooms around here. I need you to bring them over. Don't ask what they're for yet. I'll cover you. Hurry up!"
Upon hearing Lin Tian's words, the four women did not ask any questions and instead split up to head towards their respective rooms, while Lin Tian shot down the little evil spirits that tried to approach them.
A few minutes later, the four women returned and handed all four reactors to Lin Tian.
Lin Tian placed the four reactors together and connected them with redstone.
At this point, the Twilight Ghoul began summoning its smaller ghouls.
Seeing this, Lin Tian smiled and said, "So eager to die?"
The small evil spirits were all attracted to the reactors, and Lin Tian and the four women began to kill them. At the same time, a surge of blood-red energy began to flow into the four reactors.
After all the ghasts were killed, the four reactors gradually lit up with a red glow, with black smoke billowing from them.
Lin Tian signaled the four women to get ready, connected the two pressure plates to the redstone, and when he saw the Twilight Ghoul fly over the reactor, he stepped on the pressure plates.
The Twilight Ghoul was immediately drawn to the four reactors. At the same time, a large amount of crimson energy began to surge from the reactors and rush towards the Twilight Ghoul, which began to scream madly.
Lin Tian then took out the Lower Realm Alloy Sword and began to attack. The Twilight Evil Soul's health bar began to drop rapidly, and it was soon successfully killed by Lin Tian.
Twilight Evil Spirit, dead!
With this, all three major side quest bosses of Twilight are dead!
Chapter 52 The Eve of the Great Battle - Tourism
"Yay!! We've finished the last one!"
Seeing the Twilight Evil die, Kanroji Mitsuri jumped up happily.
All their hard work over the past few days was to defeat all the side bosses as soon as possible. They had traveled countless miles to find these bosses, and finally, they had taken them all down!
Although I don't feel physically tired, I am mentally exhausted!
Seeing that the four women looked a little tired, Lin Tian didn't rush them to continue fighting the giant warriors and giant miners.
In fact, on their way to find these side bosses, they had already found the Sky Island and even the End Castle. However, due to the thorns around them, Lin Tian did not have the idea of continuing to explore further.
Moreover, Lin Tian strongly suspected that there was definitely a powerful creature guarding the End Castle! Because when they passed by the End Castle, they heard roars coming from inside, the sounds were extremely mournful and angry, and also carried a hint of helplessness.
When Lin Tian heard the sounds coming from the Castle of the End, he was completely dumbfounded. Wasn't it said that there was no final boss in the Twilight Forest? How could there be sounds coming from inside?
Lin Tian had asked the system about it, but the system said that there was a final boss in the Twilight Forest, and its strength was no weaker than the other small bosses. In fact, some of its abilities were even too overpowered. That's why such a mission was issued. Otherwise, how could there be a situation where you could choose your own modules?
After hearing what the system said, Lin Tianren was a little numb, as if he had accidentally fallen for the system's big trick!
But since we've already made the choice, there's nothing we can do about it. And the ingenious uses of the customizable modules are absolutely immeasurable!
But when he thought of the four women, Lin Tian fell silent again. He couldn't let them go to their deaths with him.
After much deliberation, he decided to challenge the End Castle alone. Since he had never tried the ability to resurrect infinitely, he could just die and keep going, determined to wear down the boss.
However, he didn't tell any of this to the girls, since it wasn't something worth talking about anyway.
.........
"Let's go, everyone. We brought Nezuko and the others along. We haven't spent much time with them these past few days, so let's have some fun first!"
Thinking about how hard he had been running around these past few days, Lin Tian decided to have some fun for a few days first, since he wasn't in a hurry.
With that, Lin Tian picked up the fallen items and teleported away with the four women.
........
"The sister looking for her brother: No matter how many times I watch it, I never get tired of it!"
"I love Hashirama: Indeed, this place is like a pure land compared to the ninja world."
"The little sister looking for her brother: Huh? I'm talking about Nezuko! She's so tiny and cute! I want to hug her and squish her! ???"
"I love Hashirama: ...You bastard!"
"Silly girl: Madara, don't you know Hotaru at all? Would she ever be interested in scenery, let alone praise it?"
"God's Tongue: It really is a beautiful place!"
"Your Highness: How should I put it? Life here must be very happy."
"Wandering in the mortal world: There is a sense of tranquility and peace, but also a feeling of danger lurking everywhere."
"Hellish Blizzard: Don't forget the monsters from that world, everyone."
"I'm just a casual observer: I have to say, everything in that world is a bit too much."
......
While the viewers in the live stream were discussing, Lin Tian, along with Shinobu Kocho and Mitsuri Kanroji, the two "adults," were taking the little ones for a stroll in the twilight.
They have already eliminated most of the monsters, so there's no need to worry too much about any that escaped.
The group strolled around, enjoying the wonderful sense of peace.
When Lin Tian happened to see a huge tree, he took out an axe and dug it open, revealing the hollow part inside.
Climbing up the vines, the group reached the top of the tree. Stepping on the leaves, the three Butterfly House kids couldn't help but shout out loud.
The others also looked around at the beautiful scenery with expressions of enjoyment; this feeling of being alone in the clouds was truly delightful.
Lin Tian had already started building a house in the tree. Building a house in the tree was his childhood dream because it would make him feel like a bird, free and unrestrained, without having to worry about his studies every day.
Meanwhile, everyone in Lin Tian's live stream also flocked to Kocho Shinobu's live stream. Since both of them were live streaming this time, they could watch whichever side of the scenery they wanted.
