Slime#47, along with the gang on Bull#1, advanced toward Ruins City Lunxia.
He had encountered the smoke from adventures fighting the white wolf gang along the way, but he did not even stop to scout them out; instead ran with his fellow demons, because he already knew what was going on from the 24th loop.
----
"There it is," Elder Slime muttered as he glanced at the magic‑sealed door.
'What should I do?… I'm still too weak,' Young Slime mused bitterly.
Along the way, he had also picked up Mana Meditation and acquired Mana Mastery. His next goal was to reach Tier One in mana mastery and unlock all the elemental forms with their respective classes.
'Maybe… just maybe I'll get a unique class or trait if I get all the basic elemental runes,' he thought, cheering himself up.
He was a little bit stronger than when he had first come to this place in the 24th loop. "Status," he muttered, as a notification flashed in front of him.

'Same as last time… just remove fire and slot lightning in,' he thought, feeling powerless.
He had gained Demon Colonel once again as he took cattle and slimes along with him. And Residual Lightning Resistance was due to his race and class—it would be gone once he started another loop.
Though he felt the same, he was actually five levels higher than last time—but it was useless. He'd already sensed the creature's power from its attack before.
"Elder, wait a minute," he said, Wob!—bouncing toward Old Slime.
----
Back when they were breaking out of Oakfield Village—
"Elder…" Young Slime explained the situation of the three monsters from his 24th loop and how strong they were.
"We have only that way… other cities with teleportation are out of reach for just fourteen days. Baron Blackwell's men will find us if we take another route," Elder Slime explained, and insisted that he would check the place out first.
----
Crack!
This time, Old Slime didn't break the entire array—he altered the sigils and poked a hole through it, which reduced the barrier power.
Smack!
The door was smashed open by a tentacle with dense, small eyes, but it stopped as it hit the violet barrier, which formed instantly to stop it from going out, anymore than one meter.
Young Slime felt a chill as he glanced at the tentacle that had stopped just a few meters away. 'I couldn't sense it… and it's way faster than last time.' His core shook.
He finally got the full appearance of those creatures.
A creature with no way to identify its gender stood on its ten tentacles, with small pitch‑black eyes all around its body. Its body structure was skinny with bones, but from its sternum bone, three tentacles flowed out, standing in the air and aiming at the sky; another large tentacle grew from its face, which had no facial features except for it, and three more tentacles came from its back.
Another human-like creature crawled inside the room on six spider legs. It had no human hands. Its face was turned upside down, glancing at both slimes with its twelve red eyes, and its face had no human features except for those eyes. Black hair grew all around its body, and its stomach was swollen like a Spider.
And the last creature stood on two muscular legs. Its chest was skinny with three muscular arms emerging from it, a large red eye in the center of the three arms, and two more skinny arms from its back. Its head was fox‑shaped with three small blue eyes, a nose, and a mouth—which the other two lacked—and it had orange fur all around its body.
"Damn… what the hell are those?" Slime#47 roared while trembling, fear spiking through him.
He didn't know why, but he felt chill as purple sweat formed on his body.
"Roar!" They all howled at both the slimes.
Bang! Boom!
All three of them attacked the barrier, trying to break it.
"Appraisal." He wasted no time as he used his skill.

"Hahaha…" Slime#47 laughed at the monstrosities he supposedly had to kill just to escape the baron.
'Wouldn't it be better to just fight Baron Blackwell instead?' he wondered, feeling it was impossible to kill those three creatures without hundreds of loops.
'Rituals… you're my hope again when I fail,' he scowled. He hated depending on that octopus thing for power; hence, he decided not to use the Eldritch power until the last.
Wob! Wob!
Both slimes moved back, feeling it was dangerous to be near them.
"I see, I see…" Elder Slime muttered, as his eyes filled with fury. "That's how they destroyed the City Lunxia; and stopped them from escaping."
"Elder, since it's a teleportation, why can't demons from the other side come kill them?" Slime#47 asked doubtfully.
Old Slime glanced at him with an idiotic look. "The teleportation array is broken."
"Ho…" Young Slime nodded, then exclaimed, "Then how are we going—yesh, you can fix it." He facepalmed himself.
"Sure, I can," Elder Slime grinned.
"Then—" Slime#47 wanted to ask, but was cut short as Old Slime answered, "Teleportation array has to be created on both sides…"
"Okay… so we have to kill those—" Young Slime stopped as—Crack! Whoosh!—a tentacle shattered the barrier, and Puk!—pierced Elder Slime's core.
And Whoosh!
Puk! His core was next.
He tried to dodge by leaping, but it was too fast.
[ Ding! You have died! ]
He died before he could even activate his skill combo—but it would've been useless anyway.
