"A treasure chest!" Mist excitedly said.
"And there's statues too?" Wondered Zack.
Indeed, there were six statues standing in two different lines, protecting the blue-colored treasure chest in the middle of the room.
They were made of stone and resembled Aquatic Anima holding sharp tridents. The weapons themselves seemed to be made of some sort of special magic metal, and they were golden colored, not deteriorated at all.
"Those tridents look sharp… Is this really safe? I have a bad feeling about this." Celica said. "Mister Teddy has the special ability [Acute Senses] and he can detect secret things sometimes, only sometimes though… But he's not stepping forward, whatever's in here is not safe!"
"Treasure chest! It is my first time finding one!" Mist was too excited to listen, rushing inside the dungeon while rushing forward.
"Wait, Mist!" Celeste flew towards her as Mist suddenly stepped in between the two rows of statues, which were over three meters tall each.
"Huh?"
Mist suddenly noticed the statues eyes glowed bright red, staring at her, and then…!
"MIST!"
C R A A A A A S S H!
Two tridents at once reached her, clashing into the ground!
However, Celeste grabbed Mist in the very last second, while Zack emerged right in front of the two tridents, stopping their movements from having reached her using his two axes.
"Uwaah! They moved!" Mist panicked.
"Of course they moved, this room was obviously suspicious!" Sighed Celeste.
"Uungh, these guys are pretty tough! I haven't fought golems before, they're breaking heavy!" Zack said in surprise, as lightning and winds surged from his arms, being pumped into his weapons and then reaching the two statues.
ZAAAP! BOOOM!
One of the statues gained several cracks, stepping back in surprise, the other, however, didn't received much damage at all, and it quickly attempted to attack Zack once more with its trident!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"Unnggh…! Shit!"
Zack quickly stepped away from the powerful trident blows, which shook the ground. However, the other five statues quickly began moving once fight started. And all of them pointed their weapons at him!
"Fuck!"
C R A A A A A S S S S H H H H!!!
However, we stepped in before anything could happen to our friend. Aquarina and I were the first ones to attack, as unleashed a spiraling dragon-shaped blazing flame eruption from my sword, while Aquarina generated several hydras made of water, which we used to quickly throw away the statues, forcing them to step back while giving some time for our friend to escape their grasp!
"Hahhh… I owe you girls once more…" Zack sighed while feeling relieved of having his life with him.
"Come on stand up, we don't have much time, these things have begun to move now, we can't just sit still, they'll chase us down!" I said.
"A-Alright!" Zack summoned his Spirit of Winds and Lightning, enhancing his damage. "I realized Lightning element is pretty effective, but wind, water, and fire doesn't seem to have done much." He analyzed how the statues we attacked barely got cracks, while the one his lightning reached destroyed its trident-wielding arm and threw it into the ground.
"Yeah, you're probably right in that." I agreed. "So give us a bit of your lightning then!"
"For sure! [Lightning Enchantment]!"
F L A A A S H!
Zack unleashed a powerful, Tier 3 Thunder Magic Spell, [Lightning Enchantment] enchanted a person or a weapon with the Lightning Element, making their attacks became of that element. He did it on our weapons and also on our very bodies.
ZAAAP!
The sound of lighting clashing over our bodies echoed across the small room, the statues didn't seem to be afraid either, moving towards us to attack us once more mercilessly.
I felt lightning coursing through my body, as I quickly imbued it into Scarlet, making her unleash a powerful aura of thunder. My speed quickly multiplied as I ran at lightning speed towards the nearest Statue, swinging my sword vertically and horizontally as I automatically activated [Blade Aura Slash] consecutively!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
CRAAASSSHH!
The attacks unleashed lightning, which quickly ran across the statue's body, it seemed that whatever stone it was made of it had a very high electrical conduction capabilities, making it easily break down when overcharged with it!
BAAAM!
The enormous statue fell into pieces into the ground, as I found out a large, red-colored sphere on its center, was this the golem's core? Well, whatever.
CRAAASH!
However, before I could react in time, another trident attack reached me! Nonetheless, it was promptly stopped by Aquarina, her knife attacks were fast and nimble, as they surged like flowing waves of water, slowing shaping themselves into ferocious hydra heads.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Each blow reached he statue behind me, mixed with lightning and the high conduction of her water magic, the statue was utterly decimated, crumbling apart on the spot!
"Be more careful there!" She said.
"Hey, you're the one to talk when you fell into a trap!" I laughed.
"Well, I've given you back the favor now, heh." Aquarina giggled adorably.
"Sylphy!"
Suddenly, my spirits called upon me as three other Statues emerged behind me, their tridents overflowing with mana coming from their cores, as they unleashed a barrage of consecutive blows!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
With Aquarina's help, I barely intercepted them, parrying the enormous blows was extremely hard when they were so heavy and fast at the same time though! These Statues are not normal monsters, they're probably as strong as Tier 3 or above? Maybe Tier 4! Their endurance is insane, if it wasn't due to their lightning weakness we would be in even more struggles.
"RAAAAAH! [Lightning Storm]!!!"
Zack jumped into battle, his entire body glowing brightly as Mist enchanted him with buffs from afar, his entire body began rotating in midair, using his axes to spin and form an enormous storm of lightning, engulfing the three statues!
FLUOOOOOOSSSHH!
