Hearing that she could use a hand crossbow to grab onto the winged dragon and move, Odilia was very excited, feeling that she was not far from clearing this level.
“This game is truly hell-mode… no, it’s a Shura-difficulty start! There’s no hint at all, just death right from the beginning. But…” Odilia covered her eyes with one hand and put her other hand on her waist, laughing proudly: “Kuku————Kuku————Kuku———— As expected of me, the primordial light born from darkness, the Daughter of Light and Shadow~~~~ I’ve already seen the ending of this game!”
“That guy, is he alright?” Seeing Odilia in her self-absorbed state, the man in armor couldn’t help but ask.
“She’s an adventurer. I heard that there are many different types of adventurers, and this should be a pretty common one.” The woman with glasses said.
“Is, is that so…”
On the other side, seeing Odilia’s appearance, Zhang Xingyu broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at the black mist and asked: “Do you think she can break through this prologue, or rather, the selection level?”
“Food is just food. It has spirit energy within it, but it doesn't know how to use it. It's as weak as an ant, and it will die many more times.” The Nightmare Lord said.
“Don’t say that. As a player who has just entered the Nightmare World, without any hints, she managed to find a way to escape from this inescapable death trap after dying only twice. It can be said that she’s already quite formidable. Moreover, she is the one who created the first Nightmare game, and she is also useful for testing the various bugs in this world.”
“BUG?” The Nightmare Lord asked.
“Erm, it’s like catching insects…” The Nightmare Lord’s world was a high-level magic world, where technology hadn’t yet risen, and there were no video games, so he didn’t understand game terminology very well. Zhang Xingyu explained: “It’s to test if there are any errors in this Nightmare world…”
“My world could never have errors!” The Nightmare Lord snorted and said disdainfully.
“I know you’re very powerful, but we’re not the heavens, nor any kind of creator. It’s impossible to create a perfect world, right? And, a virtual game world is different from the real world.”
“The creator…” Zhang Xingyu’s words seemed to awaken the Nightmare Lord’s memories, and it fell into deep thought.

The hull tilted 90 degrees again, but with the experience from the previous two times, Odilia found a better position on the ship and didn’t fall directly down this time.
“Winged dragon… where’s the winged dragon… ah, I see it, there!” Odilia looked around for a while before finally spotting the winged dragon circling in the air.
“Damn it… I can’t use the hand crossbow in this situation…” But Odilia was now gripping the hull with both hands, and she couldn’t free up her hands to use the hand crossbow!
The hull continued to tilt, as if it was about to flip over completely!
“Jump down, jump down, there’s land below!” At this moment, a girl who was also struggling on the ship shouted to Odilia, then let go of her hands and jumped down.
Odilia looked down and found that it was no longer the sea below, but “land”.
Since an NPC was guiding her to jump down, Odilia didn’t hesitate and jumped down directly.
She nearly landed on her head, but Odilia ultimately managed to stay on her feet.
“So close… En? What is this? The ground is so hot… what exactly is this place…” Odilia looked around. It was all dark black rock, but through the cracks in the black rock, she could see magma flowing below. Not only that, but there was also magma falling from above.
“If you get hit by that, you’ll probably die instantly!”
The ground shook again. Odilia grabbed the ground with both hands to avoid falling over.
The intense shaking stopped, but it was only the beginning, because Odilia saw that the entire ground was starting to tilt.
“Go over there, there’s a winged dragon there, hurry!” At this moment, the girl in the yellow leather armor who had fallen down earlier beckoned to Odilia. Seeing this, Odilia hurried towards the NPC.
“Good thing you’re alright… Did you see anyone else?” The girl in yellow leather armor asked, and Odilia shook her head.
“I don’t know how everyone else is doing… Crap, this ground…” The ground started tilting again, and this time it was a much larger tilt.
“Hold on tight, don’t fall down!”
The ground that was still passable a moment ago was now almost a 90-degree wall. Fortunately, the wall was originally uneven, and it wasn’t too difficult to grab onto.
“We have to climb up.” As she said that, the girl in the yellow leather armor started climbing up, her movements were incredibly skilled.
“Really, making this lady who has never climbed a wall before do this—kind—of—thing—is just—trash—game—啊!” Odilia started learning how to climb up like the NPC.
Climbing the wall was very difficult for Odilia, after all, it was her first time. However, there were many places to grab onto the wall. As long as she was careful, she could do it. Plus, it didn’t matter if she died, she could just start over. So, Odilia didn’t have any psychological burden.
Finally, the two climbed to the top, and Odilia immediately knelt on the ground and couldn’t get up.
“Whew—whew————”
“Now is not the time to rest, over there, the winged dragon is about to fly away!” The NPC said, and ran towards where the winged dragon was hovering.
Seeing this, Odilia could only run towards the winged dragon with all her might.
“Just a little more!”
It was a cliff ahead, and there was only one chance to grab onto the winged dragon!
Odilia didn’t hesitate, she leaped out, flew over the cliff, and turned around, aiming the hand crossbow at the winged dragon.
Success or failure rests on this one move!
At this moment, Odilia was full of confidence because she felt that her move just now was incredibly cool!
