Kieran followed the stone and wood humanoid monster and soon arrived at a crossroad.
The crossroad should be one of the main streets of the underground city and should be wide.
But now, it was piled up by all kinds of stone and wood remains.
A straight figure stood in the middle of the pile of remains, coldly staring at the new monster. With a flash, the monster was kicked into pieces.
The crow feather mantle was still fluttering in the flying remains.
Kieran who was hiding in the shadows looked at his' self 'further away and laughed coldly in his heart.
"As I thought."
A fake Great Swamp had appeared to fool him.
Then where did the real Great Swamp go?
As the lord of Flame City, Great Swamp's strength was undeniable. Compared to Forest City, Leaf City, and the God of Many City, he was on a completely different level.
In the current dungeon world, there were existences that could defeat Great Swamp.
But to make Great Swamp disappear without a trace, especially when he was still in Flame City, it was almost impossible.
Obviously, fighting couldn't solve the problem.
There was only one possibility left.
Bluffing.
Since there was a Great Swamp that looked exactly the same, why couldn't there be a Kieran that looked exactly the same?
Besides, the creator obviously put in quite a lot of effort on the fake Kieran in order to better bluff Great Swamp.
At least he wasn't strong on the outside like the fake Great Swamp.
As for how did the creator do it?
Kieran had no idea how to create a fake that looked exactly the same as the real Kieran — even though he wasn't a newbie anymore, he didn't dare say he knew every single dungeon world's secret technique, especially after the appearance of the so-called Gods, some impossible things became possible.
However, Kieran had his own guesses as to how to grasp the time difference.
The phone!
Great Swamp's phone was tapped.
The creator used the phone to grasp the movements of both sides and perfectly utilized the time difference. After sending Great Swamp away, the creator started his next move.
"Very smart fella."
Kieran commented.
However, it didn't stop Kieran from making his move.
Whoosh!
Kieran jumped out from the shadows and when he stopped, he was already standing behind the imposter.
From the beginning to the end, the imposter didn't react at all.
Even the expression on his face didn't change at all.
Bang!
The corpse fell heavily to the ground.
Then, at a speed visible to the naked eye, it turned into a transparent bubble and disappeared into the air, leaving behind an orange glowing item.
It wasn't an equipment drop, but a drop from the player's pocket.
It was a bracelet made of metal, with snake-scale-like patterns on it. It was a bluish-green color.
[Name: Flame City Bangle Replica]
[Type: Accessory]
Rarity: Rare
[Attack: Strong]
[Attribute: 1. Warning; 2. Guide]
Special Effect: None
Prerequisites: None
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: This is an imitation of the original Flame City Bangle by Great Swamp. It has lost most of its effects but the remaining functions are still astonishing.]
…
[Warning: In the underground city, it will warn you of danger, 2/2]
Guidance: In the underground city, it can guide you, 2/2]
…
Kieran picked up the bangle and read through its description. Kieran's mouth corner curled into a meaningful smile. He then turned around and sprinted further away.
He wasn't sprinting aimlessly.
With the traces left behind by the imposter, it would be a piece of cake for him to locate Great Swamp.
Soon, a courtyard appeared in Kieran's sight.
White walls, black tiles, lanterns.
Kieran was slightly surprised when he saw that the lanterns gathered within a 3-meter radius and didn't reveal a single bit of light.
That was because the feeling before his eyes was like a kind of separation.
The courtyard was in another world.
Outside the courtyard was another world.
"Four thousand eight hundred and one."
"Four thousand eight hundred and two."
"Four thousand eight hundred and three."
…
"Six thousand nine hundred and two."
"Six thousand nine hundred and three."
…
The sudden counting echoed around the courtyard. The voices were very similar and the two figures that appeared in Kieran's sight were like twins.
One of them was in front and the other was behind, walking on the spot and counting as if they didn't know what fatigue was.
Kieran took a quick glance before retracting his gaze.
He shifted his attention to his feet.
A moment later, Kieran found what he was looking for: the traces left behind by Great Swamp.
"Retreat?"
Looking at the traces on the ground and the two figures further away, Kieran raised a brow.
He seemed to have guessed something.
However, when Kieran followed the traces left behind by Great Swamp, nothing happened. After he stepped out of the lantern's range, he returned to the path he came from and when he moved forward, he still saw the same courtyard.
When Kieran returned to the front of the courtyard and the lantern's range …
Wung!
[Flame City Bangle Replica] buzzed.
The blinding red light was flickering ceaselessly.
Without Kieran knowing, a figure started to move in and out of the courtyard not far away from him.
Each time the figure moved in and out, the figure would get a little more tired.
Each time the figure moved in and out, the area around the courtyard would get a little bigger.
Kieran saw the scene. He didn't even need to size up the figure, he was sure it was' him '.
Not only was the figure dressed in the same outfit and face the same.
More importantly, Kieran also felt tired.
As if he hadn't slept for a few days in a row and then went for a long run.
Of course!
What caught Kieran's attention was a malicious gaze coming from behind him. It was so dangerous that it felt like it was real. It made Kieran's hair stand on end and his breath stagnated.
The malicious gaze had no intention of hiding.
'He' was emanating a familiar presence.
Kieran didn't even need to turn around to know it was another 'him' behind him.
At least …
They looked exactly the same.
In the distance, the two people who were counting also changed.
Another 'him' joined in.
However, this time, it wasn't counting anymore.
It was killing!
One by one, one by one.
When the fourth 'him' appeared and killed the third 'him', Kieran squinted his eyes. He felt a faint pressure from the fourth 'him'.
Strong!
The fourth 'him' was extremely strong!
He had far surpassed the so-called God of Forest City, God of Leaf City, and God of Many City. He was getting closer to Great Swamp.
Maybe …
He was even stronger than Great Swamp.
At the same time, the danger behind him was getting closer as well.
It was also filled with pressure.
As if it was urging him to make a decision quickly.
Should he turn around and fight to the death?
Or?
Kieran slowly walked towards the figure that kept moving in and out of the courtyard. He stopped in front of the figure and sized it up.
The figure didn't seem to notice him, still moving in and out, causing Kieran to feel even more tired.
The malicious figure followed behind Kieran, sizing up Kieran like how Kieran was sizing up the figure. His gaze and expression were exactly the same.
Other than the malicious intent!
When Kieran raised his hand to grab the figure, the malicious figure also grabbed Kieran.
When Kieran grabbed the figure, the malicious figure also grabbed Kieran.
When Kieran threw the figure away with all his might, the malicious figure also threw Kieran away with all his might.
Then …
