"Lucian, we've found the passage to the next level."
At this time, Froz, who had just gone out to find the way, returned to the team.
"Oh, you've found it? Great!"
Lucien turned his head and looked at the few people who had finished collecting materials.
"Erin and Arthur are ready to leave."
"Coming right up!"
After a brief rest, the group of six headed towards the next floor.
A few hours later.
With Hulim's attention paid, the entire team reached the lower area with unstoppable force.
At this moment, they are being besieged by a group of swamp salamanders...
clang!
Arthur cut off a swamp salamander with one sword, and its body was split in two and fell to the ground.
After dealing with this opponent, Arthur was about to go help others when he saw another one suddenly appear on Russell's left side and puffed up its cheeks at him. He quickly shouted a warning: "Left! Russell, be careful of the venom attack!"
"What?"
Russell had just stabbed a swamp salamander into the ground when he heard Arthur's shout and turned his head to look.
“I’ll go!”
I was shocked on the spot.
puff--!
The venom spewed out by the swamp salamander was already coming towards him.
"I'll block it, rock barrier!"
Almost at the same time as the swamp salamander spewed venom, Irene waved her wand towards this side, and a wall of earth rose from Russell's left, blocking the incoming venom attack.
Ziz~! Ziz~!
The venom corroded a gap in the earth wall, but it still successfully blocked it.
"Phew, you scared me!"
Russell breathed a sigh of relief, then became angry.
"You little monster dared to sneak attack me, take my shot!"
boom--!
He raised the spear in his hand and thrust it forward with force, and the whole person flew out like a storm.
Bang!
The swamp salamander that had just attacked him was instantly pierced with a big hole. After flapping its wings twice, it fell to the ground and became motionless.
"Hmph! Is that all?"
Russell made a gun flower gesture and said disdainfully.
As soon as the words fell,
"Gurgle, gurgle..."
A large number of bubbles emerged from the surrounding mud, and more swamp salamanders crawled out.
Russell's expression froze.
"What are you standing there for? Come back and get into defensive formation!"
Erin yelled.
"... ...oh oh!"
Russell ran back as if escaping, and he, Irene, Froz, and Arthur leaned against each other to form a defensive formation.
Soon, the newly appeared swamp salamanders surrounded them.
"Hey, hey, are you sure? This is too many!" Russell shouted.
"There's no other choice but to go ahead."
Arthur gripped the sword tightly in his hand and gritted his teeth.
The other three also gripped their weapons nervously.
It seemed that a conflict between the two sides was about to break out.
boom--!
On the other hand, the winner was decided at this moment...
As the last huge swamp poisonous salamander fell, the smaller poisonous salamanders that were about to attack realized that something was wrong and began to flee into the mud behind.
However, they escaped too slowly.
call--!
A fierce frost storm descended upon the swamp, freezing the surrounding quagmire and turning all the escaping poisonous salamanders into ice sculptures.
Click, click...
Then these ice sculptures turned into powder in the raging wind, leaving only the magic stones left in their place.
"Are you guys okay?"
Hulim and Lucien, who had dealt with the higher-level monsters, came over.
"Ah, fortunately, no one was hurt—"
Irene replied, but before she could finish her words, Russell, whose face had turned pale for some time, suddenly spoke up:
"Well, I seem to be poisoned..."
“???”
Irene looked Russell up and down, and when she saw the blood on his spear and the blood spots on his body, she was speechless.
"Russell, is this your first day as an adventurer? How could you be so stupid as to make such a mistake? Come here, I'll detoxify you."
"I was just being careless..."
Russell muttered as he walked up to Irene honestly.
Seeing this, Lucien said to the others, "Leave this to Irene. Let's go collect the spoils first."
The group then dispersed, picking up the scattered magic stones. Since the monsters' bodies had been destroyed by Hulim, collecting them this time was much easier...
As a soft white light was released from Irene's wand, Russell's expression gradually returned to normal.
"Okay, now that I've recovered, let's go help pick up the loot."
Irene put away her wand and prepared to join the group picking up magic stones.
"Okay, uh... wait a minute, I suddenly have to go to the bathroom."
"Why do you have so much? Oh, right, this poison seems to cause rapid dehydration. Although it's been detoxified, you've been poisoned for a while..."
"Well... then, go quickly. Don't go too far. There might be monsters underground."
"I see. You're so long-winded."
Russell said this casually, then trotted away from the team.
Irene glared at his back angrily and snorted coldly:
"Humph! You idiot, just fall into the mud!"
After saying that, he turned around and joined the ranks of picking up the spoils...
After a while, Russell came to a swamp and bushes. He looked around and found no danger.
