Dekan's Tactic of Selling Out Clay

The Eighth Floor of the Demon Realm Prison, the entrance to the final Ninth Floor.

Dekan was explaining the tactical arrangements to the others.

This process has been going on for several hours.

Croix and Morion are both fine.

Cornelia's brain was about to overload.

To Dekan's surprise, although Clay seemed impatient, he had indeed memorized Dekan's tactics completely.

When Clay was tested, he was able to answer all the questions.

The reason why the tactical deployment took so long was due to insufficient intelligence.

Dekan analyzed the mechanism of the Ninth Floor, and logically, the Ninth Floor must also have a mechanism that cannot be overcome by brute force, otherwise even the eighth-level jailer would not be able to pass.

The Ninth Floor, however, retains its rationality.

However, the difficulty must be extremely high.

After all, it's a ninth-tier boss.

The specific mechanisms will be examined at the Ninth Floor.

The more thorough the pre-battle preparations are now, the greater the advantage will be when we reach the Ninth Floor.

Dekan finally finished explaining his more than forty tactics and their derivatives.

Clay seemed to feel a chill run down his spine and began rubbing his temples.

"Who exactly are you, sir? How did you manage to make so many preparations before the battle...?"

Clay couldn't help but mutter to himself.

He certainly didn't want to encounter such an Underworld enemy in the mortal world.

Extremely cautious.

They've really considered every single possibility!

They're leaving their opponents no way out!

Clay really thought this Little Succubus was too sunny, and complained:

"The plans you outlined earlier are all fine, and I won't comment on the low-probability events in the middle. But what about those particularly bizarre situations and countermeasures later on?!"

Dekan rolled his eyes at Clay and said:

"It's all because you killed the Jailer, which caused us to miss a crucial piece of information. Although getting that information doesn't necessarily mean we can predict the Warden's tactics in advance, it can at least help me eliminate some possibilities."

"I'm speechless. I really don't know how you're thinking..."

Clay reviewed Dekan's tactical arrangements.

He really didn't know how to evaluate it.

For Dekan, as long as the probability of an event is not zero, he will seriously consider it, no matter how outrageous the event may seem.

Moreover, given the already strange situation, Dekan's response was even more absurd—the mother opening the door in an absurd way.

"Alright, everything is ready, let's go to the Ninth Floor."

Dekan clapped his hands and walked to the portal, saying...

The others agreed to follow.

This time, the portal returned to the smooth state it had been in the first few levels.

Soon, they arrived at the final level of this Demon Realm Prison.

As long as you get through this level.

Then you can leave the Demon Realm Prison.

Upon arrival, Dekan first confirmed that there was a protective barrier nearby before he could relax for the time being.

At least this level doesn't have to face danger at the start like the Eighth Floor.

At the same time, Dekan also saw the final rule transmitted through the Demon Bracelet.

[Prison of Betrayal]

[Staying on this floor for one day will deduct 90% of your existing Demon Point, or 100 Demon Point, whichever is greater.]

[When your Demon Point are negative, the Warden will send you back to the first level.]

[The area within the portal barrier is a safe zone; the Warden will not attack from there.]

[Upon leaving the safe zone, the Warden will activate kill mode as needed.]

[Can consume 900 Demon Point to gain the Ninth Floor of Blessing, granting immunity to one Jailer's attack; cooldown 1 minute.]

[You can spend 9000 Demon Point to return to the portal barrier.]

[Upon leaving the Demon Realm Prison, any remaining Demon Point will be automatically converted into the Demon Realm Currency.]

"It seems this level tests strength and the accumulation of experience from the previous levels..."

Dekan looked at the information on this floor and the current situation, muttering to himself.

Outside the portal barrier, the Warden can be seen in the distance.

The entire Ninth Floor was like a Daoist temple.

The Warden sat in the center of the meditation hall, looking as if he were in deep meditation.

She looked dignified and imposing; simply sitting there exuded an immense sense of oppression.

It was as if once you stepped out of the safe zone, you would be overwhelmed by her oppressive aura.

As previously reported, the Warden appears to be a blind woman.

Her eyes were protected by a piece of metal mask.

Logically speaking, even if an eighth-tier jailer came here with enough Demon Point, it would be difficult for him to force his way through a ninth-tier enemy.

The Warden blindfolded himself, which gave the jailers some opportunities.

In the distance behind the Warden, a large teleportation portal can be clearly seen.

Presumably, we can leave this Demon Realm Prison by using this portal.

In this level, having enough Demon Point will provide a significant advantage.

The mechanism in this layer is very simple: the jailer needs to use his resources and intelligence to get past the Warden's defenses, and she will then let him leave, which counts as passing the level.

Guarding the prison is the Warden's duty, and she cannot chase after anyone outside the prison.

"You take good care of the Saintess of Darkness and leave her in the safe zone. The four of us will try to hold off the Warden. Once I signal you, you take the Saintess of Darkness and escape towards the portal."

Based on the situation on the Ninth Floor, Dekan quickly outlined the battle plan and then gave instructions to Cornelia.

"Um."

Cornelia nodded seriously.

"Clay, we're counting on you this time. We'll do everything we can to help you."

As the only Tier 8 main DPS in the team, Clay is practically the only one who can withstand the Warden.

Dekan and Morion are two acrobatic assistants, while Croix is a caretaker.

A perfect three-protect-one lineup.

"No problem."

Clay exuded strong confidence, taking the lead as he strode out of the barrier's range, displaying the demeanor of a powerful figure.

He was clearly eager to test his skills against a ninth-tier expert.

However, Clay had just stepped outside.

The three of Dekan stopped in their tracks.

They remained inside the barrier.

Clay: "?"

"Ugh, why is this barrier so laggy? The spatial connection has been lost!"

Dekan cried out in distress.

He decided to wait and see in the safe zone for the time being.

To be honest, none of the three support players dared to venture out rashly.

After all, the three of them had never faced a ninth-tier enemy before.

Plus, they're all squishy characters; they might get one-shotted with a single strike.

Let's let the tough and resilient Clay try out the mechanics.

Clay, by simply sensing the aura, had already realized the problem at this moment.

He, the main DPS, entered the map, and all three supports disconnected.

"You three?! You betrayed your teammates too?!"

Clay turned around and roared.

Anger levels surged.

"Clay, are you angry? You're angry, aren't you? That's good. With [Frenzied Demon Heart], you'll become stronger when you're angry. Isn't that a kind of auxiliary behavior?"

Dekan stood inside the barrier, asking and answering his own questions with righteous indignation.

"If I hadn't sworn an oath, I would have punched you!"

Clay felt his blood pressure was already skyrocketing before the fight even started.

This Succubus teammate is strong, but she's really terrible!
