The other old monsters and top powerhouses made their entry into the hall in their elemental forms just as Lily finished speaking.

“What is going on, Lily?” Dagon said as he dryly smiled at his daughter. It wasn’t like his daughter to make a speech like that in front of seniors, but he and the newly arrived became aware of everything from others with swift, telepathic exchanges.

“I don’t know what Almond did to make you all like that, but that’s exactly what we want,” old monster Liang said with a ruthless grin. “There’s no progress without suffering. We are already behind you, Almond, so throw us any challenge you can. We’ll accept it.”

“That’s right.” Admiral Rudra nodded with a severe and determined expression.

The remaining top powerhouses also arrived, with a total of 148 Epic-rank powerhouses gathering, among which 27 were peak Epic-rank. Most of them were old monsters, while the rest were some guild leaders.

But Almond planned to take all of them to the 14th Floor forcefully, even those who had yet to clear the previous floors because fuck the rules of Grimworld’s Tutorial.

He could break them, so he would, just like how they manipulated the first phase to create war among four Arcane Champions and how Hollowstar put their heads into everyone’s asses by breaking rules.

They had the power to break the rules, so they broke them.

He also had the power to break the rules, so he broke them!

Outside, Almond stood in the center with everyone standing around him within a large silver-golden magic formation created by Almond.

“Everyone, we will be entering the fourteenth floor in ten seconds. Calm your energies and mind both. This teleport is very sensitive because we’ll be passing through a veil, and I’ll be breaking it by force. I don’t want any interference during that one second.”

Everyone took a deep breath and utterly calmed down. All 157 people were top powerhouses and veterans, consisting of both young and old generations, with the youngest being Grim Breakers and the oldest being old monsters.

The rest of the guild leaders, vice leaders, family heads, and relatives of old monsters all had families and heirs who were powerhouses.

“Our aim is to get strong, and I will guarantee everyone’s safety, but…I won’t hear no complaints,” Almond said as his voice rang. “Here we go.”

*Blink*

Meanwhile, the disaster dragon Kexell the Cursed Vadagon was heading to the Earth’s base on the battlefield again, and there was no one to defend them at this time.

Fortunately, there was a communication link between Astra A.I. and the device they had sent in the Labyrinth, and Admiral Rudra was also armed with it as someone who had a neuro connection with Astra A.I.

Almond had just brought them to the 14th Floor on a large plateau, the location of which he had stored the previous time he came here with the Grim Breakers.

“We have already cleared the 14th Floor’s Heroic Boss, so there won’t be a second spawn. However, there’s still a normal boss since no one has cleared it yet. I’ll be sending those who are underless in Epic-rank to various areas to kill monsters and the rest to different hidden challenge areas. There are plenty on this floor for multi-person participant, and I know their locations.”

“Wait, Almond.”

Admiral Rudra suddenly said, a frown on his face.

“I just got informed by Astra that Kexell is hovering in front of our base. His dark cloud is there just fifty kilometers away.”

Almond furrowed his brows. “Why this timing? Sigh.”

“Alright, I’ll be sending you all to your places first, and then I’ll go out and deal with it before returning.”

The Grim Breakers’ eyes shone involuntarily.

“I won’t be here to heal and save anyone here, so don’t die. But once I am here, I promise no one will die in my presence,” Almond smiled. “I’ll be right back.”

“Come back soon,” Lily said. “Or these fellows will die of happiness.”

“Girl! Let him deal with the disaster dragon slowly!” Natalia said with a pout before smiling at Almond. “Go ahead, Almond. We’ll wait for you for a whole seventeen hours if possible.”

“I promise I will return in an hour,” Almond said with a chuckle before waving his hand as he sent everyone away.

Grimbreakers, Old monsters, and other top powerhouses were divided into five groups as he sent them to different big boss monster areas.

Those who were under-leveled were sent to areas with a high number of monsters.

However, before leaving, Almond waved his hand as a large whirlpool manifested above him and a figure emerged from it, covering a thick, creamy yet glowing whirling cloak and two large horns atop his head.

His skin was a wonder of energy, pulsing dark blue with light blue crystal patterns, and within the whirling around him were four arms.

Almond waved his hand as he created seven screens, showing the six groups.

The two groups who were leveling were the biggest, as it was a must to go in big groups in areas with a high number of monsters for leveling.

The other five screens were smaller groups of top powerhouses for big boss killings.

“Ashura, I want you to make trouble at these five locations while they are engaged in boss fights. You can use your Marionette Strings to do that, but don’t kill anyone and save them if they are in trouble.”

“I’m giving you a device that will shift between these five locations one by one upon infusing Mana. Switch locations constantly and do as I said.”

“Understood, Master.”

Ashura looked at the orb Almond gave him and infused mana before vanishing.

Smiling, Almond’s eyes flickered, and he also vanished. He looked forward to seeing their surprise after the trouble Ashura gave them, his newest Spirit Lord, which was made from the Immortal-King Grimiions and Immortal-rank humanoids!

Leaving the Labyrinth, Almond cracked his neck and vanished again, entering the Battlefield.

‘Now, how should I deal with this cursed vagabond, eh?’
