Chapter 213: Against An Army Of Buffed Up Lizards!

paɴᴅᴀ ɴ<0>ᴠᴇʟ —–

Alright, alright, alright! The battlefield is getting fiery already! Pyro and his companion spiders are setting everything ablaze. The spiders cannot use fire unlike the unique Pyro, but they can trap the giant lizards using spiderwebs, while Pyro abuses the webs flammable nature and burn through his foes even more easily! And while I oversaw the situation, Mercury, the new addition to our party was breezing through the lizards farther away, and gatekeeping the stairs leading down, crushing the lizards rushing from below. Wow, Mercury you're literally a monster! I think I've made a great investment in wasting away over half my System Points for you, dear.

With Mercury, I can use him for both defense and offense. The original Metal Slime King wasn't that good at attacking, but because Mercury is a fusion with the other elemental slimes, he got an amazing magical prowess and can conjure several low to mid-tier elemental magic spells… And to make it even more crazy, he got the [Self-Division] Skill that can allow him to divide into many smaller Mercuries. Of course, their stats reduce by the amount of small clones he makes, but they're still form a mighty and more flexible army of rainbow metal slimes.

"This is insane… Is Pyro and Mercury going to do all the job?" Asked Lucifer, who was simply smacking any lizards that got nearby. "Pyro has grown way too strong after his recent evolution, that [Hellfire] of his is too strong! The entire floor is set ablaze… Also Mercury is just… an overkill. Don't you think you overdid it with that monster?"

"Hehehe… It was a good choice! I've always wanted a slime companion anyways, and Mercury is insanely strong. Damn, I love being a Necromancer! We'll make a big, unparallel Undead Army!" I laughed maliciously. This has been kind of my quest since the very beginning of my journey has a ghost with Death Magic, but still, its insane how strong my Undead are now. I think the Level of [Fake Life] also influences in how strong Undead I raise become. Usually they were way weaker than their original selves, but now they are comparable, or even stronger than when they were alive… After all, Fake Life is already Level 9! I wonder what sort of awakening it could have at Level 10 though.

"You're insane… But I guess I shouldn't be worrying about stuff like this when there are so many goddamn lizards…! We have to keep going down, tell Mercury and Pyro to push forward!" Said Lucifer.

"Hey, don't order me around…! But that's a good plan!" I said, quickly flying forward while firing arrows made of darkness against any little lizard that got in my way. Their bodies dropped into the floor one after the other against my magic, and I even used Phantasmal Limbs with my two weapons of choice to slice through their heads!

SLASH! CRASH! BOOM!

"Mercury, Pyro, combine your forces and push forward, we are going all the way down to the Boss!" I ordered. Mercury quickly began to unify his entire clones into a giant sea of liquid metal, as he suddenly began to move down through the stairs, any lizard in his way was consumed and dissolved by his gastric acids. Damn, Slimes are really terrifying creatures!

"Gryysha!" Pyro cried while unleashing a storm of flames right above Mercury, impacting floor 6 and burning through dozens of giant lizards that were getting in our way. With Lucifer, Emeraldine, and Partner mounting rapidly moving Undead Spiders, we reached the floor 6 in mere seconds.

"Uuuuuaaaagh!"

However, right after getting down there, Emeraldine cried! We looked at her alarmedly, finding she was being petrified by some sort of Curse Magic! Shit! Right, there were Basilisk in here! They don't affect me because I am a ghost, but Emeraldine and the rest can still be petrified!

Without thinking it twice, I rushed towards Emeraldine and put myself in front of her, quickly realizing we were being surrounded by ten evolved Basilisk, Tyrant Basilisks, who were tens of times bigger than the tiny lizards from back then, and they had large jaws and claws, they probably devoured their petrified prey with those!

"Damn it! Good thing we stocked on potions from the Alchemist Guild that Julia recommended to us!" I said, taking a Anti Petrification Potion from the bag and quickly making Emeraldine drinking it down.

"Uuggh… Gluhh…" She swiftly recovered, as the skin turned into stone quickly began to fall from her body, there were some wounds as the raw flesh beneath her skin was shown. She's so strong I forgot that sometimes she could be hit by things like these! Damn it, my Undead Healing doesn't work on the living either! I took a High Potion from my Inventory after that, they were expensive and rare, so I only had a handful, opened the bottle, and quickly poured it over her.

SPLASH!

"Agh! Phew…" She sighed in relief. She was unable to heal herself due to the shock, most likely. Her skin was slowly growing back, and she used her own healing magic to hasten the process.

Meanwhile, Lucifer, Partner, Pyro and Mercury slaughtered the Basilisks. It seems that Partner and Lucifer had a rather good resistance to curses for being high-level entities, especially Lucifer who was barely being petrified, and simply detached the petrified skin from himself without any pain. The same for Partner, the two had insane self-regeneration powers so it wasn't much of a show for them, Pyro was the same, and Mercury was… completely immune to petrification to begin with, it's not like liquid metal can be petrified.

"These damn Basilisks, they're coming in large quantities!" Said Lucifer.

"Let's protect Emeraldine!" Said Partner.

"E-Everyone… Don't worry for me, I'll make something up!" Said Emeraldine. "Barrier!"

FLASH!

Emeraldine suddenly erected a light barrier around her in the form of a bubble, and the petrification power of the Basilisks suddenly was not affecting her, it wasn't even reaching her anymore. I guess she could had used that sooner!
