The Fukaros Familia, starting from DanMachi.

Chapter 107 Annihilation? A Prayer

Just then, a Hilichurl thug broke through the wind wall that Little Ika had desperately created, and a giant axe burning with black flames came crashing down on Fenyu with immense force.

Fen Yu instinctively turned his body to the side, raising his sword to parry.

"clang--!"

A loud bang, sparks flying everywhere.

The fire spirit sword in his hand let out a mournful cry.

The irresistible force traveled through the sword, and Fen Yu was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into a distant rock wall with a dull thud.

"puff!"

A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, but he gritted his teeth and slid down the rock wall, kneeling on one knee, his long sword stuck in the ground to support his body.

"—The sound that resounds through the heavens is the very embodiment of my sins—"

His voice was hoarse and trembling from the excruciating pain, but the chanting never stopped.

He had no skill in shortening incantations; the casting of extremely long incantations was so slow that on the battlefield where every second counted, each second felt like an eternity.

Despite having an omniscient perspective thanks to the mental network, even with his temporary upgrade to Lv.3, Fen Yu inevitably began to get injured when faced with a large number of Lv.3 monsters attacking him.

More wounds appeared on his body, and blood stained his white clothes.

Just then, a gentle breeze swept by.

A healing, verdant light, carried on the wind, fell upon him like spring rain.

The wound on his back healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his physical and mental strength was replenished.

A brighter green glow enveloped him; it was the effect of Feng Jin's skills and magic, providing him with continuous protection and healing.

"—The trumpet of the gods, the harp of the elves, the melody of light, are the very mark of sin—"

With the support of Tifa, Robin, and Violet, and with Burning Feather's steely will, the long chant finally came to its final verse.

"—My destiny, loved by this man-made world, may it shatter into ashes! I hate you so much! The price is here: to destroy all things with the evidence of my crimes! Weep, Holy Bell Tower!"

"Extinction - A Prayer!"

The chanting is finished.

The moment the last syllable fell, all sound in the entire cave vanished.

A massive, incredibly complex magic circle, large enough to cover the entire cave ceiling, suddenly unfolded in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a magnificent and awe-inspiring clock tower, constructed of illusory light and sound, slowly descended from the center of the magic circle.

That is the bell of sound.

The instant the magic was activated, Tifa and Robin, who had already received a telepathic connection, used all their strength to retreat backward, away from the eye of the storm centered on Burning Feather.

Fen Yu raised his head, his eyes bloodshot. He used his last bit of strength to tightly control the power of his magic in front of him, to prevent it from affecting his companions behind him.

Driven by his will, the sacred bell hanging in the sky trembled violently.

"clang--!"

A sound like an ancient and heavy bell, seemingly coming from the depths of the soul.

Immediately, a terrifying, pure white sound wave, visible to the naked eye, spread forward like the breath of a dragon.

The air shattered inch by inch wherever the sound waves reached, emitting a mournful cry of unbearable strain.

The earth trembled violently, and the hard rocky ground was shattered layer by layer.

That invisible impact destroyed everything in its path.

Whether it's the lowest-ranking Hilichurl, a tough Hilichurl thug, or an Abyss Mage with an elemental shield, there's no difference before this absolute power.

The ferocity and violence on their faces were frozen in time. Before they could even let out a scream, they exploded from the outside in under the impact of that terrifying sonic wave, turning into a sky full of blood mist.

The entire instance space trembled violently under this attack that exceeded all limits, and countless cracks appeared on the dome, as if it would collapse completely at any moment.

When everything calmed down, there was no longer a single enemy standing in front of us.

This attack exhausted most of Fen Yu's magic power.

With a thought, he dispelled the [Eternal Flame] state, and the flames burning on his body instantly went out.

He could no longer hold on; his body went limp, and he collapsed to his knees. He could only keep from falling by sticking his sword into the ground, breathing heavily.

After the terrifying sonic shockwave subsided, the world fell into absolute silence.

The soft yet resilient blue light emanating from the Earth Vein Town Stone became the only source of light at the scene.

Under its light, one could see jagged furrows carved into the ground, but apart from that, there was no other monster in sight.

They all vanished, completely erased by the final bells.

Customs clearance successful.

A blue-purple spatial vortex slowly emerged in the center of the cave, and next to it, a magnificent treasure chest shimmering with dazzling light also took shape.

Under Feng Jin's healing magic, Fen Yu's pale face regained some color.

He leaned on his sword to stand up, walked straight to the treasure chest, and opened the final reward of this adventure.

As the treasure chest lid opened, a dazzling golden light burst forth, causing almost everyone to instinctively squint.

As the light faded, the four relics and a book lay quietly at the bottom of the box.

Two five-star artifacts: [Witch's Flame Flower] and [Witch's Everlasting Feather] from the [Blazing Witch] set.

Two four-star artifacts: the Guardian Flower and the Guardian Emblem from the Guardian Heart set.

And a thick adventure calendar.

Without hesitation, Fen Yu put on the two five-star holy relics that were burning with a faint light.

The two-piece set bonus increases fire damage, which undoubtedly makes his attack power even more terrifying in the [Eternal Flame] state.

The [Guardian Heart] set increases defense and is more suitable for front-line warriors.

However, the Fukaros Familia was not avant-garde in the traditional sense, and after thinking for a moment, Fenyu handed them over to Robin.

"Although it's not the perfect match, it's always good to improve the attributes a little."

The robin accepted it with a smile, understanding that this was the optimal allocation of team resources.

As for the [War Frenzy Rose] and [Adventurer's Tail Feather] that Fen Yu had replaced, they were given to Feng Jin.

Finally, there's that "Adventure Album".

Fenyu put it away and did not use it on the spot.

For them, it would be far more worthwhile to sell the book to raise much-needed funds or to leave it for new companions who might join in the future than to use it now.

Leaving the instance, Fen Yu glanced at the portal that still offered two more challenge opportunities, shook his head, and turned back with his tired but rewarded companions.

The achievements gained from clearing this dungeon are more than enough to upgrade the Robin.
