Chapter 831 Stepping Into Floor 9
?-----
Floor 8 had the two same bosses again too, which was an oddity among harder mutation difficulties within this Dungeon, but it ended being a nice reward in terms of EXP.
We didn't waste any time, thanks to Elizabeth's transformation, we were able to save a lot of energy and time, we moved to Floor 9 right away, finding a new type of enemy on its entrance, hundreds of giant black and red scaled snakes.
Each one being at least fifty meters each, and there were hundreds of them! They greeted us with their giant fangs, their sharp-tipped tails, and blazing venom bullets spit from their jaws the moment we stepped on Floor 9.
"Careful!"
We evaded their barrage of attacks as I commanded my Familiars, summoning them all at once, and making most of them conjure Shields of Light in unison.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The blazing venom bullets hit the shields of light, and easily shattered them one after another. Several of my Familiars put into defense meeting a quick end as they were melted and burned whenever the venom hit them.
"What the heck are these guys?! I don't remember you talking about them!" Said Chris.
"Well that's because they are not even documented in the books." I said. "Eric, did you read anything about these?"
"N-No, nothing! We might have just discovered new Monsters…!" Eric muttered, evading the attacks as he pointed his arrows against them. "[Tempest Arrows]!"
FLAASH! FLAASH! FLAASH!
The arrows swiftly reached them, descending like an endless rain of sharp spiraling emerald winds and piercing their bodies rapidly, a dozen of them were weakened and a handful died on the spot.
"SHYAAGGH!"
The hundreds of snakes stepped back once wounded, the ones coming from behind started pushing the weakened ones, causing a tremendous chaos amidst their army.
"March!"
I roared, my Familiars kept advancing relentlessly, Fenrirs tore apart the weakened snakes with their giant claws, Dracos sliced their heads with their swords, and the rest kept attacking with light spells inherited from the Element Bestowal Skill.
At the same time, I steppe forwards, shooting cannons of light and frost from my handgun, freezing and severely damaging the monsters while slowing them down.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
And that wasn't all…
"[Holy Soul-Sealing Vines]!"
I conjured a near endless quantity of golden vines that emerged from my hands, by combining the [Abyssal Blood-sucking Vines] Skill with Elizabeth's Holy Light enhancement, this powerful Spell quickly started to wrap the bodies of over fifty snakes at once.
"SHYAAAAGH!"
They screamed in agony as not only their bodies were being bound, but their souls started growing weaker. This was the wonderful effect of Holy Light combined with a Skill that drains blood from foes and weakens them through curses!
Ding!
[You've spread through the enemy the [Holy Soul-Sealing Vines]!]
[All Trapped Foes will receive a temporary debuff to their Movement Speed of -50%]
[Their souls have been bound by the vines of heaven! Mana and Magic Power have further decreased by -70%!]
[The [Emperor's Presence] further makes your foes afraid of your tyrannical nature! All their Stats have decreased by -66% as long as they're afraid of you.]
"We can do this, keep going!"
As I roared, my friends rushed forwards. My vines slowed down all foes, helping my familiars and friends kill the monsters quickly.
"Thank you bro!"
Chris flew across the air with his flames, summoning hundreds of fox-shaped holy flames, which continuously bombarded the monsters, exploding in contact.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"I'll clear the way!" Erika roared, her sword overflowing with her energies and Elizabeth's Holy Light. "[Yggdrasil Dragon Swordsmanship Arts]: [Yggdragon's Holy Claws]!"
A gigantic draconic claw surged from Erika's very aura as it merged with her sword slash, slashing through the foes one after another, and swiftly eliminating dozens at once.
SLAAASH!
"[Asura's Wrathful Fists]!"
Erdrich in the other case, leaped into midair and descended towards them with his bare fists, unleashing countless blows that resembled falling meteors due to their intensity.
CLAAASH! CLAAASH! CLAAASH! CLAAASH!!
"SHAAAAH!"
Another group of a hundred of these giant Snakes appeared from a left corridor, quickly firing their destructive venom against us!
"Not so fast, you little worms."
Hendrick appeared in front of us, however, waving his hands as the venom began to move below his authority.
"[Venom Manipulation]!"
He combined all the venom together into a giant sphere of blazing poison, and then fired it back at the snakes!
BOOOMMM!!!
"GRYYAARGH…!"
They were quickly confused and broke their formation, some of them even dying by the impact alone! So they weren't that resistant to their own element, huh?
"Titans! Fire your magic, don't let them give another step!"
I commanded the Red Orc Druids who nodded in unison, there were around fifty of them, and they were my strongest magicians within the Familiar repertoire.
They conjured Spiritual Magic and unleashed lightning, icicles, dragon flames, and also buffed us and healed us, they were all-
rounder magicians for all sorts of occasions!
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
Their attacks swiftly destroyed the snakes one after another, as we I advanced forwards, finding Eleanora at my side, she nodded at me without saying a word, leaping into midair and swinging her giant spear, now glowing with golden light upon her temporary transformation.
"[Celestial Blood Spear Arts]: [Valkyrie's Meteor]!"
FLASH!
She descended with tremendous power towards the snakes, the impact of her glowing spear alone generating a huge explosion that released golden lightning and explosive blood energy everywhere.
CRAAASH!
The impact alone created a huge fissure in the caves, spreading countless cracks as debris fell over the snakes coming from behind the ones she eliminated, crushing them to almost death, leaving them in the perfect state for me.
"[Blood Drain]!"
With a wave of my hand, I channeled my boosted Vampiric Powers after fusing my Talents, the wounded Snakes lost all their blood, drying into mummies as I drank their delicious blood, regenerating my energy quickly.
Without realizing it, we already reached the end of the Floor, a huge boiling pool made of Miasmic Magma greeted us, and the leader of these damned overpowered snakes was finally before us.
"GRYSSHAAAAA!"
"SHAAAAAHH!"
"GRUOOORRR!"
It was a gigantic creature of over two hundred meters of height, covered from head to tail with black and purple scales. And possessing five gigantic and long snake-like heads, and a long body without limbs.
It was covered by several halos of black, red, and purple flames, and each of its heads exuded an almighty aura of superiority equal to a Demon Overlord, to a small extent…
"T-This is… the Boss of Floor 9?!" Elfriedden muttered, stepping back by the sheer pressure the creature exuded.
"I see, so this is the third possible Boss Monster, we finally meet it." I laughed. "I only heard it was a huge snake, but it looks like its mutated form means much more business."
"Somehow, I'm getting the feeling this is not a B Rank Monster anymore…" Eric muttered.
Ding!
[You've encountered the Floor 9 Boss [Abyssal Five-Headed Venomous Flames Hydra Queen (A- Rank)]!]
[Its very presence is enhancing all monsters below its command Stats by +250%!]
And he wasn't wrong, it was A- Rank! And that buff… now it makes sense why those snakes were so tough!
"Alright, time for the last bag of EXP before fighting the final boss, everyone!"
