Chapter 250 - Dark Light of Eternal Dungeon: White Jade Spider
Brando was glad that Souta would let him used the defense enhancing potion that they've got from the last room. He wasn't sure if he could tank the attacks of a third evolution monster.
He wasn't the only tank of the group. The Lanny group also had a tank named Finsi. Finsi was a powerful shielder and had a lot of experience in fighting monsters.
The two of them would take the frontline and protect everyone from the third evolution monster's attack. It was their job as shielder of the party.
'If only I'm a pure-blood demi-human then...' Brando thought as he glanced at his greenish palm.
His mother was a human and his father was a pure-blood turtle man. Because of that, he didn't inherit the natural talent of the turtle man. The ability to deploy a powerful shield, the [Hardmode Shell Protection]. The innate ability of the turtle demi.
If the Paraponera demi(ant demi) boasted their natural brute prowess, the turtle demi like Brando boasted their ability to block powerful attacks.
'Well, I just need to work as hard as I can to improve myself and one day I will show that everyone that I can protect someone too.' Brando smiled as he lifted his head and looked at the ceiling. He was fortunate that he got to know Souta and others in the institute.
...
After one hour, Souta stood and patted his clothes. He looked at everyone and said, "We'll raid the boss room so prepare yourself. We'll follow Lumilia's command and there's no exception to that. Do you understand me, Bryan?"
"Ah, eh... Yeah." Bryan was surprised when Souta mentioned him. He scratched his cheek as he nodded at Souta with a wry smile on his face.
Well, it's natural if they consider her personality to rush at the monster on sight. Souta could tolerate it if they were fighting second evolution monster as Bryan could fight ten or dozens of those monsters at the same time but this time was different... They were going to fight a third evolution monster.
The mages checked their pocket to see if they have mana potions while the shielders checked if they have health potions.
After finding that everything was ready, the group stood in front of the huge metallic door with blue veins on its surface. Blue veins were thumping like blood vessels.
Souta and others wouldn't be able to destroy this metallic door with their current strength. This door was strengthened by the dense mana and best feram of the third evolution monsters that were living in this dungeon. After a hundred years or more, the stones and rocks in this place would become rare materials that needed to forge orange and red grade equipments due to its exposure to the dense energy in the atmosphere.
"Let's do it."
Everyone placed their palm on the surface of the door and pushed it. The door made a metallic sound and it slowly opened. It revealed a huge and wide room. The room was covered in thick webs. Five meters above the ground was a six-meter white spider with a black color gem on its back. Its eight long legs were as sharp as a sword and its eight red eyes were gleaming in the dark.
It was a third evolution monster called White Jade Spider.
Souta was familiar with this monster. He saw this type of monster in Raeshka's third evolution force and he subjugated hundreds of these monsters when this world was still a game.
Powerful pressure was gushing out of the spider's body. The pressure made everyone gulped in nervous except for Bryan who was looking at it with excitement in his eyes.
When Souta saw the eagerness in his eyes, he called Bryan. "Bryan, listen to Lumilia's words."
"Ah, I know..." Bryan snapped out his thoughts as he nodded at Souta. He took a deep breath to calm his nerves.
"Damn! That monster is a bad news!" Ginvi said as he looked at the huge white spider inside the dark room.
Huff...
Lumilia closed her eyes before she took a deep breath. After a while, she opened her eyes and gazed at the body of the huge white spider.
"Shielders, use the defense enhancing potion and attack the monster. Souta and the rest of the damage dealer will attack the monster from both sides while the shielders are distracting the monster. Mages and support will stand by." Lumilia issued a command as she saw the huge white spider turned its head in their direction. She knew that Souta gave them his permission to use the potion so she will not hold back and used everything they have to defeat the terrifying monster in front of their eyes.
"Understood." Brando and Finsi drunk a bottle of defense enhancing potion. Both of them raised their shields and charged towards the six-meter tall spider.
The white spider revealed its big and sharp fangs. An ear-piercing screech escaped from its mouth.
Shiiiiiiiirk!!
At the same time, the best feram in its body exploded. Dense and thick energy flooded the entire room in just a few seconds.
"Brando, Finsi, don't stop! Gather its attention!" Lumilia shouted as she saw that the two stopped from charging towards the spider. "Souta, attack the left side! Bryan, Donna, Charise, I'll leave the right side to the three of you!"
Brando and Finsi snapped out when they heard Lumilia's loud voice.
"Damn! This is scary!" Brando shouted as he jumped in the mid-air and used his combat arts.
[Shielder's Aura]!
[Knight's Will]!
"And..." Brando took a deep breath. "[Taunting Shout]!!"
He shoots a sound wave towards the white spider. The white spider shook when the sound wave landed on its body. It turned its head and looked at Brando.
"I've gathered its attention!" He shouted as he braced himself from the possible attack of the spider. A three-layered transparent shield formed in front of him. It was his [Triple Frame Shield On] combat arts.
The huge white spider moved its sickle-like legs and swung it at Brando.
Finsi, the other shielder of the group, smashed his shield on the ground.
[Towering Earth Formation]!
Layers of rocks rose from the ground. It created a tower-like rock formation around the battlefield. It was a good choice of skill. They were small while their opponent was huge. They have a geographical advantage with this.
The only problem was the webs of the spiders around the room.
While Brando and Finsi were taking the attacks of the spider, Souta and the rest of the attackers went to their position.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
"Souta, Bryan, use flames to burn the webs!!" Lumilia shouted while looking at them. She was observing the battle along with the support and mage.
"Yuko, burn it," Souta said as he dashed towards the side of the spider at high speed. The reason why Lumilia left that part to Souta was that because of Yuko. Souta was a tamer so Yuko was part of his strength.
Yuko opened her mouth widely and used her [Burning Shout] trait skill. Flames burst out of her mouth and it swallowed the webs in the area around them.
Swoosh!
[Agility Boost]!
[Strength Boost]!
Souta dashed towards the spider before pulling out the vajra sword on its sheath. Looking at the performance of the spider, he could guess that this spider wasn't at the peak of its evolution stage. In game terms, he could estimate that the spider had the power of a level 45 to 50 monster of its type.
Pretty weak compared to the third evolution monsters of Raeshka.
'They won't have any problem in casting spell unless this monster used its release state.' Souta thought as he gathered his mana on the blade of his sword and shoots crimson slash towards the spider.
Boom!!
"[Grinding Flame Spear: Fire Dance]!!" Bryan roared as he used a powerful tier 2 spell.
Ten-meter long flame spears formed around him. The spears flew in any direction burning everything into ashes. It even destroyed the rock formation that Finsi created for them.
Boom! Boom!
Sounds of explosions reverberated in the Dark Light of Eternal dungeon.
"Lynn, Evren, cast healing magic and buff spell at our two shielders," Lumilia said as she squinted her eyes and observed the movements of the monster.
"O-Okay." Lynn nodded as she gathered her mana and lifting the staff in her hand before casting the healing spell.
[Radiant Heal]!
This spell was a healing and buff spell. It could recover the lost 300 health points and increase the recovery speed of the target by fifty percent for three minutes. It could also increase the defense of the target by five percent for three minutes.
"Thanks." Finsi grinned as he felt the effect of the spell on his body before he pounced towards the spider.
"Let's go!" Brando shouted as he raised his shield and gathered his mana to strengthen it.
Finsi and Brando were taunting the spider to avoid it from targeting the damage dealer on the side.
