Reincarnated As The Diabolic System-Chapter 51 50. Freeze Them!!!
"Take out your weapons," Shane ordered his group as he brought out the ice weapon. He knew that since it wasn't his attribute, he couldn't continue to use it for a long time, but he could still use these weapons for a few seconds to buy his group some time.
He gritted his teeth, thrust his sword into the ground, and said, "Freeze!"
This was a freezing skill that would turn on as long as he spoke the word. At that moment, ice power emerged from the sword and traveled to every monster that he aimed at, covering them with ice. Soon enough, all the slithering monsters froze on the ice.
It was unfortunate that Shane couldn't cover many areas. Only the monsters around him managed to get frozen in the ice, but the monsters beyond, on the outskirts of the lobby and around the elevator area, were still intact. They growled even louder as they opened their mouths and released a fire breath, aiming at the ice.
Shane watched in horror as the ice melted and the monsters stood intact around him and his group, glaring at him. Okay, he seemed to have managed to make them even angrier. He silently put his weapon back in his inventory and asked, "Any ideas?"
"Let me use a fire weapon," said Tess as she pulled out a sword. Of course, her attribute was fire, but she hadn't reached the level of Luna to get a shot at an amazing weapon. The sword brightened up as she said, "I can slash them up."
Shane was surprised to see that his sister was suddenly taking charge of the situation, only to see her hands trembling. There was a thin layer of sweat on Tess's forehead, but the girl stood there stubbornly without moving, "F*ck it! I'll kill them all!"
After that, she closed her eyes and started swinging her sword left and right. The monsters got slashed and dropped to the ground with just one hit, and everyone thought they could finally walk away easily. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶
Shane frowned when he saw this. Even though this dungeon was a light blue level, it shouldn't be this easy to overcome the hurdles. Something was wrong. He immediately pulled out a regular knife that didn't require any cosmic energy as he stared at the scene in front of his eyes.
A few seconds after the first few monsters were slashed to death with one hit, they healed in the blink of an eye automatically. Their injuries were covered up with a thin layer of dark energy before revealing a complete form. They got up on their feet and some even crawled toward Tess, who was facing her back to those monsters, killing monsters with great enthusiasm.
Shane quickly opened his mouth, "Tess, look behind you!"
The girl turned around as her eyes went wide in horror, "I had just killed them! What's going on?"
"No time to think about it," Shane gripped his knife tightly and said, "There's no need to kill either of them according to my experience. Let's just go upstairs."
All of them turned to look at the place where there was an elevator. This place was without any staircase, so that gave them only one route: the elevator. It was just that Shane and his group would have to cross a sea of a lot of monsters to reach that place.
He narrowed his eyes. It seemed that they were trying to protect the door to the next level. He immediately turned to Frank and said, "Yours is Earth, right? Can you do something about it?"
Frank nodded, but then shook his head, "I have a skill that can create an Earthquake, but it's not worth it. We will also be in danger."
Shane nodded as he pursed his lips. He didn't want to ask Jake for help. He didn't even want to talk to that guy in the first place, ignoring the boy's existence. But now, things in this place didn't give him the freedom to do as he pleased.
Just as he was about to let go of his awkwardness, he heard the boy himself speaking first, "I can help you with it, but all of you would have to contribute."
Everyone glanced at Jake who was still smiling as he pulled out a sword from his inventory, "I didn't purchase as many skills as you guys, I only have one, but it's costly. So bear with me for a while. I'll try not to hurt you."
After saying this, he moved the sword as he muttered a word under his breath. Right after that, the entire sword was covered with a thin layer of tornado-like air, circling around the silver blade. Just then, he said, "Step back, everyone."
The wind started to blow around everyone as Jake swung the sword at the group of monsters standing close to him, who was about to attack Tess. When Shane saw this situation, he forgot all about his past awkwardness and dragged Tess and Frank away, standing behind Jake. Then, the latter swung the sword toward the group of monsters as they were thrown far away as if they were hit by a wind blade.
The entire group scattered soon enough as he turned toward Shane, "Freeze them. Now!"
Shane nodded as he took out his freezing sword and did exactly as he was told. The path to the elevator cleared up in an instant as the four of them ran toward that area without thinking twice. They entered the elevator and pressed the first-floor button. Just then, the ice melted away and the monsters started crawling back to the elevator door.
The scene was creepy because the speed of these monsters was quite high as they slithered every now and then, giving Shane and his group chills. Only Jake seemed to be calm and collected. If there wasn't a thin layer of sweat on the boy's forehead, Shane would have thought Jake was really calm.
Tess wiped her face as she cursed under her breath, "F*ck! Why isn't this door closing soon?"
The monsters had almost reached the door at this time. Their tongues slithered inside the door, and just then, the door shut, chopping their tongues off. Blood splattered around the elevator's back wall without sparing the people inside. Shane and his group's clothes were covered with blood.
They stared at the slashed tongues on the ground that jumped up and down as if they were still alive.
