Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 275 - 270: An Unusual Floor

Now, it's more fun.'' Artemia declared before disappearing. Blue lightning was wrapped around her body, increasing her speed to a crazy level.

She passed through a group of seven skeletons for a second, and just as she left, these skeletons were reduced to dust. Because lightning work against skeletons as Fire did, it was easy for Artemia to eliminate skeletons quickly. 

Not wanting to be outdone, Isabella moved as well, making use of her newfound power, the Earth element, especially gravity magic; Isabella was to almost compete against Artemia. 

However, the star of this fight was, without doubt, Alex, who kept firing left and right with a frightening accuracy of a hundred per cent. He had killed more than sixty skeletons since the arrival of the first group. 

Just as Artemia eliminated the last skeleton, something surprising happened. The areas where Alex and others stood started to shake, almost making them fall into the ground, then there was a flash of light that blinded Alex's group.

''What's going on?" 

While stabilising himself, Alex couldn't help but raise his head and survey his surrounding; surprisingly, they were back at the entrance where Alex fought the first group of skeletons.

''Something does feel right. Why are we back at the beginning again?" Alex turned to face Artemia in whom he believes to have more experience in a dungeon.

Just as Artemia wanted to speak, another group of skeletons appeared; however, unlike the previous group with thirty members, this one had thirty-five members. 

Annoyed, Alex quickly eliminated those thirty-five skeletons. Just as he killed the last skeleton, Alex's level increase by one once again, he immediately checked his new status. It was true that levelling up becomes easier inside a dungeon where they inexhaustible supply the monster. Since yesterday Alex had level twice.

'That should be good for now.' Alex mumbled to himself after using his BP; he added it to his MP as the more MP he has, the more extended Sleipnir unique ability will last; however, now wasn't the time to think about such a thing. 

Frowning, Alex once again checked their surrounding, and his conclusion was the same, they were back at the same place where he first fought. 

''I think that we have fallen into a trap. One of the skeletons we killed must have been the trigger that sent us in a time loop.'' Artemia explained after analysing their current situation. 

''I see. I finally understood why we keep experiencing the same thing for a while.'' Alex said before killing his 200th skeleton. 

''How do we get out from this?" 

Isabella was the one to ask this; she was getting sick of constantly killing only skeletons.

Artemia stayed silent before suddenly ordering,

''Please step back.''

Alex and Isabella stepped back as they were ordered. 

Artemia walked to where she believes everything began, where that unusual skeleton fell under Alex's bullet. Taking a deep breath, black lightning started to gather around and before attacking the ground. 

Crack! Bang! 

The sound of glass breaking could be heard after Artemia's black lightning struck the ground. 

Another blinding light assaulted Alex's group. 

When they open their eyes again, they were inside a big room; behind them was a small room, it was probably where they got stuck into an infinite loop. 

''This doesn't look like a typical tenth floor I have read about,'' Isabella said with a frown.

Alex and Artemia didn't say anything as they were focused in front of them. 

From the other side of this floor, footsteps could be heard coming straight towards Alex's group. 

Alex's frowned in disgust; an intense smell of rotten flesh drifted to his nose, whose five senses were much sharper than the ordinary person. 

''Fuck! It stinks.'' He couldn't help but pinch his nose as the smell became harder to bear.

Artemia, who was just behind Alex, also frowned silently and held her nose.

Before long, the damp footsteps approached. 

The identity of the damp footsteps and the putrid smell became apparent. Some had half-rotted bodies with their rib bones exposed; others had gooey liquid coming out of their eye sockets. Every time they took a step, an odour would drift out, and flesh and liquid would fall on the ground, making sounds as countless shadows tried to move towards Alex.

''Zombies. It was to be expected. I hate zombie films, to think I will encounter them in reality.'' Alex muttered bitterly. With his sharp senses, the direct hit from the putrid smell had already left him in a bad mood. 

The same for Artemia, whose sense, while it might not be sharper like Alex's senses, was sharper than the average human. She turned her eyes to the nearly 20 Zombies and gave a groaning cry in a bad mood.

Meanwhile, noticing the Zombies, Isabella spoke up unpleasantly.

''Wait a minute, there are some Zombies with armour equipped. Could that mean that it was some fallen adventurer?" 

''I wonder. Perhaps this is the fate of adventurers who lose their lives on this floor. Ugh, as I thought. I would hate it if I ended up like that.''

Artemia confirmed Vel's thoughts and turned to look unpleasantly at the Zombies who were gradually approaching.

Adventurers who challenged the dungeon naturally wanted to avoid dying here. The danger of death always accompanied diving into the dungeon. However, even if you died here, your corpse would be turned into a toy by a Lich who is a higher form of undead.

One should know that effective attacks against ordinary undead, such as Holy magic (Light Element) and fire magic, were also effective against Zombies. Or, if you didn't mind coming in contact with rotten corpses, you could also target the magic stone buried inside their flesh.

While Alex's group was composed of neither Healer nor Fire mage, they still had an advantage when fighting against undead monsters. With Alex unusual ability to deal with dark creatures and Artemia, whose destructive lightning element left one in awe, it could be said the undead monsters were unlucky. 

''Let's sent those poor souls on their way.''

Artemia declared as she stepped forward, white bolts of lightning were dancing around here.
