Chapter 243: Crossing Through The Dungeon (1/2)
-----
After finishing the FIRST floor of this damn dungeon, we continued after taking a quick break of half an hour.
Each floor was simply an extension of this biome, and they were connected by a single staircase that led downwards, when you reached the next floor, the stairs were still there, resembling a tower that connected with the sky, quite bizarre.
There were no particular changes in the environment of the dungeon nor any of that, although there were things such as lakes and rivers too, which sometimes came with surprises such as giant Catfishes, all of the Rank 3, mind you, and deadly Thunder Eels, also Rank 3. They were interesting monsters that zapped me a lot, but I caught them and killed them. Eating them roasted was advised, with a lot of sweet sauce, but we saved them for later.
The monsters barely got any stronger and remained within the same ranges of power, we continued rushing through the dungeon at a fast pace. At some point everyone got pretty tired except me and Benladann, so we just began to steamroll everything insanely.
I put everyone over my back as we flew into the skies of the dungeon and I began to completely wipe out the releasing powerful breath attacks using my Death Magic and Ice Magic combined, generating phantasmal flames that froze everything. An entire forest laid frozen before me, and Benladann used her strength to cut down the monsters and throw them at me, so I saved them inside my Inventory.
The next floor was the same, but this time I decided to bathe the place with magic projectiles, just showing off the might I had and the extent of my full capabilities.
The rain of magic projectiles resembled the judgment of a god, quite literally, I bathed everything with constant explosions, the entire forest was devastated.
Damn, I can just do that, huh?
It cost a lot of mana though, even Benladann was left with her eyes wide open. I think my power level might already exceed my current Rank; I could probably fight it off against someone of a Rank higher… Though I am not too sure about what Rank 4 Magus are capable of. The only Rank 4 in here is the Sect Master, the mysterious Lord Ice Moon, which I will try to befriend in the upcoming days, if possible.
After ravaging the next floors, Benladann wanted to try out what I did, and she began to expand her Chaos all across her domain around her and infuse it into her axe, the power was like pure darkness, and overwhelming. She used it to release several slashing attacks consecutively infused with this pure Chaos. The results? The entire floor shook as the trees were sent flying, explosions happened everywhere, even little blackholes surged in the spatial walls as her chaos consumed them, it was catastrophic.
The monsters were also slashed apart, many of them were even disintegrated. But after doing this, she felt pretty exhausted and needed to rest a bit. We called this one an ”Ultimate Chaos” move of hers, which she should only do in emergencies. She still needed to train her Chaos some more before mastering it. It was a very dangerous and powerful attribute.
As we continued through the dungeon, we finally reached the final floor, and it was simply the same as the previous one, but with some variations in the structure. There were two large lakes where giant catfishes rested.
