?? The break didn't last more than twenty minutes, but at least it had been enough to make everyone feel refreshed. Not to mention, the first success boosted their confidence… so when it was time for the round two, they were completely ready.

??"Maybe I should use some status points and increase my magic just in case…" Billy thought. "It isn't like I am expecting a tougher boss here, but…"
?? While Billy's magic was already way higher than his strength, it would be stupid to try to balance those now that he needed to fight underwater for a while… In any case, he decided to use only half of the points since he didn't need that much extra firepower and because he wanted to be careful with the spending.
?? After that, Billy jumped in the water. It seemed that Kate wanted to stay behind again, and none of the others were tired enough to take her place.
??"Are we going to proceed the same way as before?" Natalie asked. "What if the guardian is different?"
??"Well, I will try to take it down with a single hit. Anyway, we can't afford to let those dungeons keep going for long," Billy replied. "Just stay focused in order to give me support in case something out of the norm happens."
?? Pretty much everything that was happening was out of the norm… Several underwater dungeons appeared and broke at the same time, Billy having to destroy their cores, the behavior of the monsters… it was easier to find something that wasn't strange. Nevertheless, the group headed to the dungeon again, and this time Billy decided to focus on support when the monsters showed up. He still needed to recover his mana, after all.
?? In any case, while they were crossing the dungeon, Billy had a weird feeling the whole time… Something was off. He stopped and made the others do the same while he tried to understand that.
??"Wait a minute… The layout of the dungeon is the same as the other," Billy thought. "What the hell…"
?? Billy didn't know if that was a coincidence… In fact, he was almost certain now that someone made those dungeons and just copied and posted the design to save time. He didn't like that… was it because he was searching for the necromancer? Many questions began to pop inside Billy's head, but he had to leave those for later… it didn't change the fact that he had to destroy the dungeon.
??See, Billy's friends couldn't help but frown when he began to move again. It seemed that he was thinking about something but soon forgot about it. Nevertheless, it didn't take long for Billy and the others to find the last part of the dungeon, and they also saw a gigantic octopus protecting a core… at that point in time, even the others realized that the dungeons were essentially the same. Still, the guardian attacked first, firing massive ice spears… even though they had never heard of a guardian that attacked people before they could show up in the last room.
??"It is the same as before… the same thing happened in the mines states… are the cores and guardians connected somehow here as well?" Billy thought.
?? Billy pondered while he also fired ice spears to repel the guardian's attacks. It was weird that they were on the same level of power, and it didn't seem like Billy was straining himself… Nevertheless, Billy decided to slow down on the attacks in order to use Reflect, but then he recalled that his skill might end up being analyzed by the guardian, so he had to change his strategy.
??"So fucking annoying…" Billy thought.
?? In the end, just used the mana spears that were on his back and fired them toward the guardian, the creature tried to repel those, but the spears pierced them as if they were made of butter. The guardian summoned some ice walls to protect itself and the crystal, but that didn't help either… the attack power of the spears was immense, and they were spinning and adding to its piercing power.
?? Eventually, the spears reached the octopus, and while the creature tried to protect itself with its tentacles, it failed… The tentacles and the head were cut to pieces. Eventually, the core was destroyed, too, and the dungeon began to fall apart.
??You obtained 500.000 experience points.
??All of your water-related skills obtained 100.000 experience points.
??…
?? While Billy had no problems in killing monsters, he felt a bit bad about slicing apart the guardian. It was probably because of the atmosphere and water that made the blood stay for longer and look even more vivid. Using the mana spears was the easier option, but it sure wasn't a pretty thing to see…
??"Mana Constructs is really something else… Monsters have no chance of blocking that kind of attack," Lily said once they left the ocean and jumped into the submarine.
??"Well, they are made of pure mana and the higher your magic, the more power it will have," Billy said. "Of all people here, you would be the one who would gain more by learning it."
