Chapter 714: 699 Elemental Ants

Entering the Mini-Boss Room, I was welcomed by a bigger Ant. Much bigger than the normal ants present in the dungeon. But that doesn't end there, there's not one, not two, and not three big ants but four of them are present.

When I entered the range, the four ants revealed themselves much clearer to me, allowing me to find out that they are color-coded with red, blue, green, and yellow as their colors and from the looks of it, each of them has different elemental traits.

Just imagining meeting all four of these ants in the Abyss Difficulty, I can see that this will be a very tough fight if I entered the Abyss Difficulty of this dungeon. However, I have to face them at the moment and defeat them all.

"SKREEEEEEE!"

All four screeched and immediately attacked. Since I am doing it solo, I have to deal with the enemies carefully.

The four charged forward straight to me so I immediately activated my wings and fly up to dodge their charge. As a result, the four bump into each other. But that doesn't change anything as they don't take damage from bashing themselves which is a little bit disappointing but there's nothing I can do about it.

The green soldier was the very first to recover from the collision and started to look for me. Since the other three have yet to recover, I took this chance to attack the green one first. Landing on the green ant, I changed my weapon into a dagger and stab it inside the green ant's head with a little gap big enough for a dagger to fit in. A single stab causes the green ant to struggle and hopes to remove me from its body by moving around erratically. I didn't pull out the dagger form of the Versatile Weapon just yet and while it was still stuck inside the gap, I grab the handle, and changed its form into a magic sword, transforming the short blade into a longer blade, effectively piercing through its little armor.

Its HP is dropping as the Versatile Weapon remained on its head and every time it moves, the sword also messes up its position, causing more damage to the ant a lot more.

The other ants have already recovered and started firing elemental spits in my direction but since I am small and agile enough to dodge the attack, instead of hitting me, most of their attacks are landing straight at the ant, causing it more pain. Compared to their headbutt that made them shaken before, the attacks the other ants are doing are hurting the green ant. It's not just that but my weapon is getting deeper and deeper into its head, contributing more damage to the mini-boss.

When its HP starts to reach critical levels, now around a million and still dropping rapidly, I decided to use this chance to eliminate the boss immediately.

"[Earth Fissure]!"

The moment the skill was activated, the ant stopped moving and in a few seconds of still movement, its body started to expand. I pulled the Versatile Weapon out from its body and fly away from it. My timing was impeccable since the moment I managed to get away from the green ant, the expanding body couldn't handle it anymore and exploded to pieces, effectively killing one of the four bosses.

"One down, three more to go!"

The three remaining ants didn't like that one of their comrades are killed. Instead of attacking me directly, they didn't and positioned themselves on the sides, and from the looks of it, they have the plan to defeat me by teaming up.

But after the first green ant was killed, I already know a good method to defeat them all. I fly up in the air and the three started firing projectiles made of elemental spit they spit out. It was fast like a bullet, but they aren't that hard to dodge. Once they fired it up, I immediately confirmed that they have trouble spitting out more of those elemental spits for a few minutes as it takes time for them to spit more compared to the regular ants I fought as they have no trouble spitting out flames multiple times.

I immediately landed on one of the ants, this time, the flame element ant. However, this time around, I didn't stick the Versatile Weapon into the gap on its head. Instead, I changed the Versatile Weapon into a gun.

Aside from the dagger, the gun is small enough to fit in. Putting its muzzle inside the gap, I grinned and activated one of the Versatile Weapon skills.

[Russian Roulette]!"

BANG!

One bullet into the head. And a debuff immediately took effect. The red ant struggled and fell to its knees. It was in huge pain and it couldn't move.

"Paralysis huh? I was hoping for it to be Poison, Bleed, or Skill Seal but Paralysis is fine too."

The red ant is not able to move and struggled to stand back up. On the other hand, the other two didn't attack just like they did before. Instead, they remained vigilant and kept on watching my actions. Looks like they learned what will happen if they try to shoot like before. But they are now forming a stance of attack. Once I get off the red ant, they will attack me.

While the Red Ant is still struggling from paralysis, I grab a bottle of Freezing Splash Potion. This is similar to the Fire Bomb and Molotov Cocktail but this isn't used to spread chaos and burn things, it's usually used for freezing enemies and restricting their movements. They don't deal damage and just encase enemies in ice. Depending on the enemies, they can escape from it easily but I have other use for it.

Opening the bottle of the potion, I pry the shell forcefully open of the Red Ant, revealing its flesh protected inside the tough shell. Without a second thought, I pour the contents inside the shell and emptied them into the head of the ant.

Because it freezes immediately the moment it gets in contact outside of the specialized bottle it was in, the liquid flows through the ant's unprotected head and freezes over. The freezing process was fast and before the ant realize what is happening, the ant's head is frozen. This effectively killed the ant.

As the Red Ant Slumped over, the two remaining ants didn't like that even the red ant is dead. They didn't waste time and the yellow ant shot a voltage of lightning in my direction. I immediately dodged it but the moment I dodged, the blue ant lunged in my direction, catching me off guard. I managed to block his attack by putting the Versatile Weapon against his mandibles.

Wrestling against the ant was very tough. It was like wrestling against 5 sumo wrestlers trying to flatten you. Not only does it possess very high strength, one wrong move and this ant can cut my body in half.

If I was using a normal weapon, it would have gone down to its final durability point and broken to pieces if that was the case. Thankfully, it didn't possess any durability and will remain intact no matter what abuse has been done to it, not that I would do that of course.

Despite the ant trying to overpower me, I am not just letting this f*cker try to kill me here. I pulled out the Pain Delivery on my waist and aim the gun at the blue ant's head.

"Have some pain delivered to your head!"

BANG!

One bullet and the ant went down as its head exploded to pieces. Like always, the Pain Delivery is just too overpowered and it one-shots the enemies I usually encounter. I only use it for emergency purposes like the situation earlier but in some fights where I can just fight normally, this gun should remain in the holster.

However, I guess it's an exemption for today. As much as I like the challenge, I am short on time today, so I will lift that ban for now. The yellow ant, now the only remaining mini-boss alive, decided to do a do-or-die action and lunged at me while electricity is running on its body. From the looks of it, it is trying to self-destruct.

"Sorry, but if you are planning to Self Destruct, then forget it. I need your core so I need your body intact. Don't make my job harder."

BANG!

One bullet straight to the head is all it needs to be taken down. With the mini-boss section done, looks like the final boss is the next thing now.
