Chapter 298 - Under The Deep Blue Sea (V)
"[Earth Fissure]!"
SQUISH!
The tentacle wiggled but that was due to how the tentacle can't handle the pressure of the [Earth Fissure]. The tentacle was slowly destroyed and the Ice Devilfish noticed it. Without hesitation, the Ice Devilfish cut off the tentacle that is affected. The moment it was cut, water came running down from the severed tentacle and the cavern we are in is filled with water. It didn't fill much but the floor is already full of water and our feet are submerged already.
"Master, this is bad! Once the Ice Devilfish uses its ice power..." Lina warns me since she is on the high ground to concentrate on firing magic spells.
"I know. I should have avoided damaging his tentacle if I have known this would have happened. But since only our feet are submerged in the water, we can still avoid the ice attack and perhaps the freezing part too. However, we still needed to be careful. If the Ice Devilfish can cut off its own limb, then it can cut off the other limbs as well."
The Ice Devilfish then proceeds to slam the surroundings once again with its tentacles. It is no longer using two but 4 tentacles at once. It's harder to dodge due to how small the gaps we needed to have to avoid being crushed by the tentacle. Not only that but the Ice Devilfish seems to be taunting us to cut more of its limbs. If all of its limbs are cut off, the whole cavern will be full of water and everyone on the cavern would drown in the process.
"If possible, avoid injuring the tentacle! Of course, I won't prohibit attacking it but we have to limit it to avoid this monster flooding the cave and trouble our advantage."
Not only does this flood diminish our speed a bit, but it will also be troublesome in our battle against a monster that specializes in ice magic. If possible, I wanted to stop this bastard from doing it.
Seeing that its tentacle that got severed did not regenerate, I am a bit happy that the trouble won't increase that much. However, maybe it will regenerate once all 8 tentacles are cut off. It is still an assumption but that is a possibility.
"Let's focus on killing it as soon as possible. Like always, I am counting on you two up there!"
"We understand, Master!" the two responded before they started to charge their magic once again.
I sensed that the Ice Devilfish is quite intelligent. Although I can say it is not as smart as the original octopus, it has a tinge of intelligence that is capable of thinking its next strategy. Therefore, the distractions we did earlier will not work this time around. I have to devise a new tactic for it to get distracted.
While we are dodging, I called out to Tina.
"Tina! Are your throws good?"
"Throws? I can't say it's bad but it's not that great to be called an expert."
"Naw, I am saying if you can throw something a bit far."
"Ah yeah, of course!"
"Then catch!"
Tina managed to catch the item I throw at her hands and checked what it was.
[Incendiary Detonating Bomb]
Type: Item
Info: Created by a Saboteur to create a huge distraction to a certain area which will cause panic to the surroundings for a few minutes and will attract attention to any unsuspecting individuals. It detonates in one press of a button. Once it explodes, flames will scatter around the affected area and will spread out for 3 minutes.
Note: When you hear the words "Boom boom Bakudan!" nearby, you know that hell follows right?
"Just throw it to my signal to the boss, don't worry if it was blocked."
Tina nodded as we waited for the tentacles to stop their assault. It took a bit of time before it stopped its rampage.
"Now!"
Tina and I then throw the Incendiary Detonating Bombs. As expected, the bombs were deflected by the tentacles. However, I am already aware of that. The moment the tentacles tried to deflect the bombs, I press the detonator I made and let the two bombs explode.
BOOOOOOOOOM!
Explosions caused the Ice Devilfish to panic. It seems like using it caused the boss to panic. I quickly signal the two to fire off their magic skills. The two nodded and with a quick cast, two flame magic attacks rapidly went straight to the eyes of the Ice Devilfish.
KA-CHA!
Blood fell from the eyes of the Ice Devilfish upon closer look, the attacks of Lucia and Lina ruptured both of its eyes. Its HP also fell to the half bar and its movements stopped. The monster shook after its eyes were ruptured but it remained stationary.
"Now is our chance! Let's burst it down before it can recover!"
Lucia and Lina immediately fired off more of those skills and continue the barrage, all of the skills were targeting the eyes. Tina and I also closed the gap. As soon as I went to the ruptured eye, I didn't bother to be casually hitting it. If I don't hit it with all our might, the f*cker will recover again and we will be dead meat before we can finish this bastard down.
"[DECAPITATION]! [EARTHQUAKE]! "[EARTH FISSURE]! [TRIPLE SLASH]!"
I back down a bit after the attack of the two were coming and to avoid getting caught from the attack, we have to back away a bit before coming back to its eyes again. Its HP is rapidly dropping and it is a good thing. The monster was quickly dying as the four of us continue to damage the bastard.
Then, its HP fell to 1. Not 1 percent. But 1 HP left. I tried dealing the final blow but then I noticed it didn't fall down no matter what.
"F*ck! Fall Back!"
However, we are too late. Before we can even properly react, the Ice Devilfish grabbed all of us with its tentacles. Yes, all of us, including Lina and Lucia. We tried to break free but I realized the monster has then achieved an invincibility state. It laughed a bit before the four of us were swallowed by the Ice Devilfish.
...
Not that long before the incident in the cave occurred, somewhere in the Sandurk region, the two siblings who were accompanied by Dolly and Hagane were currently fighting against a boss which is named a Giant Desert Bull. Not too far from them is Harmless Sparrow drinking a potion to cure the damage she took.
"Hagane! Iron! Now!"
"Roger that! [United we Stand]!"
They slam down their shields down the ground before raising them.
BANG!
The giant desert bull then crashes straight to the two in full force. The Two managed to tank the attack but they were pushed too far.
"Everyone! Now is the chance!"
Dolly spins her staff in the air before aiming it at the Giant Desert Bull.
"Heh, you can't escape me! [Static Bind]!"
Topaz opened her eyes and stretches her clenched hand earlier. As her hands separated from clasping together, thin icicles appeared. She grinned as she focuses her eyes on the Giant Desert Bull that is still charging at the two tanks.
"Get pierced! [ICICLE SHOT]! FIRE!"
SU! SU! SU! SU! SU!
The ice rapidly shoots towards the Giant Desert Bull. It was a quick attack and the Giant Desert Bull's HP fell to critical levels. However, the amount of Icicle from the [Icicle Shot] is not enough to fully reduce its HP to zero.
"Sparrow-san!"
"Thanks for the switch! Now, come to mama!"
When the Giant Desert Bull noticed someone charging towards it. Its attention switches to the charging person.
"Good! Your attention is only on me! Now prepare yourself!"
The magic sword of Harmless Sparrow suddenly ignited into flames. However, it didn't stop there, the flames then suddenly got enveloped to purple electricity. With graceful movements, she closed their gap and without a shroud of hesitation, she attacks. Her body disappears the moment they were about to collide and with lightning speed, Harmless Sparrow seems to dance as she disappears and appears as she attacks.
She stopped moving with her sword still in her hands while the charging boss slowly stopped running before it burst to pieces.
"[SLICE AND DICE!] Electrifying Burn Edition! Now that is how you dice an ingredient that finely!"
...
A wafting aroma of the food slowly spread in the air as Harmless Sparrow started to cook the meat of the boss and served it to her teammates.
"Damn, Sparrow-chan, this is so delicious! You know how to cook?!" Dolly was surprised by the result.
"Haha, nah, it's thanks to my EX-JOB I can cook delicious food like this. I am still practicing but I can already emulate a good amount of food I can cook and this dish is one of the things I can easily cook while we are on camping in the wild."
"Hmm, maybe I should also pick up an EX-JOB related to cooking? Bladeheart's mother is already good at cooking and I am getting jealous already," Dolly started to daydream.
Iron was about to continue eating when he noticed someone approaching. He looks in the distance but because of the sand, he decided to ask his sister.
"Sis, are you seeing the two silhouettes in the distance?"
"Oh, yeah. I see them. Players perhaps?"
"We don't know but better be on guard."
Iron then warns everyone.
"Everyone, be on guard. We have visitors!"
In the distance, a monk with large muscles is walking along with a female Holy Knight. Anyone who watched the PVP battle would immediately know her.. It's none other than Sigma.
SQUISH!
The tentacle wiggled but that was due to how the tentacle can't handle the pressure of the [Earth Fissure]. The tentacle was slowly destroyed and the Ice Devilfish noticed it.
