Chapter 147 The first bloody night (1)
The death of the first student, the first drop of blood that fell into the Dungeon, seemed to have awakened the terrifying forces that were sleeping inside the lonely fortress. The monsters had awakened from their long slumber, awakened from the cocoons made of iron and steel of humanity.
Because, they smelled the scent of fresh meat, the scent of living creatures.
Not long after, fighting broke out all over the living area.
At this point, Kain's group paused their base construction and regrouped.
"The monsters are about to appear, everyone must be careful."
Kain gave instructions, then took out the map and began to command.
"Hector, you will block here with me. Leo, you will be in charge of ensuring Katie's safety. Mera, Myra, you two must hold the middle, I don't want any monsters to attack us from behind.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Anyone have any comments?"
"Wait, why is it arranged like this?"
Mera immediately asked, of course because Kain had pushed himself to the front lines.
Kain answered neither quickly nor slowly.
"Mera, both Hector and I possess [Enhancement Magic], we won't be easily injured. But you and Myra are different. The two of you holding the middle not only connect our formation together, but also make it convenient to run back to Katie to heal..."
Just as Kain was about to finish his sentence, a faint bell rang, alerting all of them.
"There's no time left, everyone get in your positions!"
"Whether you survive or not... depends entirely on you."
Kain said in a heavy voice.
He didn't think the life and death test would come so soon.
If they had a day to arrange everything, things would run smoother than ever, and Kain would have a backing to deal with the difficulties.
But now, he had to trust in Myra and Mera's defense and rescue abilities to keep the team stable, he had to trust in Leo's protection and stealth to keep the team's best healer, Katie, safe, allowing them to fight for a long time.
This was a plan that required a great deal of trust in others, something that even Kain had difficulty fully mastering.
He can only trust that everyone will do well.
Outside, from within the mist, humanoid figures, but not human, appeared.
From the outside, these things looked like naked corpses, their grey skin making them easy to be drawn into the mist, their entire pupils were a pitch black color, looking extremely terrifying. Their teeth protruded from their mouths quite a lot, with many jagged fangs growing diagonally from their gums.
Finally, their grotesque hands with sharp claws.
Crawler, humanoid but not human.
They entered the range of the bells, causing them to ring. Attracted by the sound, the Crawlers' attention was momentarily diverted.
Right that moment.
A blazing fireball pierced through the mist, accurately blasting the head off a Crawler.
This was a [Fire Bullet] attack that had reached the level of near-supreme power that a low-class Magus could unleash, and its power was naturally not ordinary. It instantly caused the monster's head to explode and die.
The one who launched the attack was none other than Kain.
He stepped out, looking at the monsters with a cold expression.
[Thunder Summon].
At Kain's command, this gray fog seemed to lighten up slightly, that was because lightning manifested and struck down, causing a series of Crawlers that had not yet unleashed their speed to be paralyzed.
At this moment, Hector also rushed out, his huge muscular body pushed forward like a huge rock, the large sword behind his back was drawn.
Hector entered a state enhanced by [Enhancement Magic], the force that erupted was extremely fierce, he immediately slashed towards the neck of a paralyzed Crawler.
Feeling the resistance transmitted from the sword, Hector's expression changed for a moment, but eventually turned into determination. Hector pressed down a little more, and the greatsword powerfully chopped off the monster's head, causing the round head to spin in the air, drawing a curved trajectory before falling to the ground.
"What's up?"
Kain asked immediately, obviously Hector's moment of hesitation could not escape his eyes.
Hector quickly replied.
"They were too tough. I almost lost."
"It's fine, no need to hold back, these monsters... cannot be underestimated."
Kain said in a grave tone. Hector nodded gently.
At this time, the other monsters had also escaped from their paralysis, once again facing Kain's [Thunder Summon]. However, these Crawlers lived up to their description of being "mischievous" in the book, they immediately looked for a way to dodge instead of just stupidly charging forward, causing the [Thunder Summon] to no longer be as effective as before. There were even some Crawlers who were willing to use their own kind as lightning shields, all just to get closer to Kain.
But they still underestimated him.
He can not only call down thunder from the sky.
[Thunder Summon].
The third time he activated this magic skill, the explosion point was no longer in the sky, but close to the ground, thunder exploded like hundreds of arrows flying randomly towards the Crawlers. Some of them tried to jump up to avoid it, but Kain used another [Thunder Summon], turning the battlefield where he was, into a net of heaven and earth formed from electricity.
Even so, that was not Kain's limit.
At this moment, he would clearly show how great the gap between [Thunder Navigation] and [Thunder Control] was.
Only to see those lightning bolts no longer shooting randomly and indiscriminately, under Kain's multi-directional regulation. Each lightning ball was formed, although these were not as heavy as the giant lightning ball, the important thing was that their number was extremely large.
Countless [Thunder Bullet] appear!
Kain seemed to have transformed into the lord of thunder.
And it also shows that even though they only use low-class magic skills, low-class Magus is not enough to be compared to mid-class Magus.
Just like that, each Crawler was destroyed by Kain, their bodies were roasted from the inside out and collapsed, creating a rather bloody scene before Kain.
