Chapter 125. Black Grotto I

Dragon King's Harem Chapter 125. Black Grotto I

Half an hour had passed. Our Yegauns tread carefully. Their feet stepped the cave floor in caution, o the stalagmites that scattered everywhere. Musty smell pierced our noses. Every now and then, the sound of water drops rang out between our silent steps. Illuminated by my Blazing Orbs, our eyes looked in all directions, making sure the monsters were still far from us.

This cave wasn't only an easy place for the monsters hiding place, but the terrain put us at a disadvantage. We couldn't use our fire skills recklessly if the monsters were near stalactites or stalagmites. One fatal explosion could have blown up the cave walls and blocked our path. So Eir used his Ice elemental skill as his main offensive skill and I was relying on my Mana Weapon as my attack.

The monsters inside this cave weren't much different from the outside. They were mostly Bone Eaters, Scorpion Bats and Korosvatys. But there was one type of monster that bothered us, the Black Lizardead. Even though he was only level 51, with the body shape of a large black lizard and octopus, he could crawl swiftly in the cave and jump from wall to wall easily. In addition, the tentacles that replaced his tail were long and large. Not only to suck his prey's energy, but also to bind his enemy. Not to mention the Rotten Gophers who were hiding beneath us. So Evelina had to use her Mass Healing Light many times to make sure we were in good shape.

"Are we almost there?" Jyne whispered. Even with the Blazing Orbs, she didn't like this place. It was even worse than the previous forest. Insecurity gripped her heart and it was unbearable. She wanted to get out of here as soon as possible. The others felt the same way, including me. If it weren't for that important skill, I would have put this place as the lastest. Indeed dragons were quite used to darkness and caves like this, but the Undead and Shadow type monsters were another thing for us.

"Yes, we're almost there," I whispered. The altar should be in the middle of the huge chamber after we passed a huge stalactite shaped like a giant sword 10 meters in front of us. Although I wanted to spur my Yegauns to reach that place faster, I held myself back since I didn't want to make trouble.

Once the stalactite passed through our heads, we found a small tunnel. With my Telekinetic, I moved my Orbs into it to make sure there were no monsters there. Luckily, there was none of them when I thought the Bone Eaters would fulfill it.

I gestured to them to follow me, through the small tunnel which only one Yegaun could pass through. This was the end of this journey, so I couldn't help myself but smile. Unfortunately, as soon as we got inside the chamber, my smile disappeared. So did the others. Even Jyne had to cover her mouth to hold back her voice. Our eyes swept around, staring at the Black Lizardeads that filled that giant dome chamber. At least, there were a hundred of them. They fell asleep, curled up, wrestling with each other. They not only filled the floor, but also the walls and the ceiling. The altar was in the middle of them. Looked like they turned the place into their nest. Luckily they hadn't noticed our presence yet.

"W-What should we do now?" Evelina whispered in a trembling voice. Fighting them openly would destroy this place. If the cave collapsed, then we would be buried alive.

Although this was troublesome, I already have a solution for this. Like I said, as long as my opponent was not an Ice element monster I could deal with it.

"Use your Mana Barrier and wait here. Heal me if I need it," I whispered.

"Do you want to face them alone?" Eir immediately caught my point.

"Don't worry. I can handle them," I said. Without another word, I used my skills and opened my wings.

[Time remaining: 14:56]

I jumped off my mount and flew carefully between them. While Evelina quickly used her Mana Barrier. Silently, I lowered my feet on the altar. A monster was sleeping on it.

Evelina and others were shocked by my act. They gasped in tension. Their hearts pounded wildly as the monster jolted in surprise and awoke from his slumber. His tentacles stuck out to my legs. But rather than fear, I grinned evilly.

'Glayze.'

[Glayze skill activated. Area: 70 meters]

[Exception: Evelina, Eiron, Jyne, Marissa, Yegauns]

[Time remaining: 06:59]

The skill turned the monster under my feet into ice. The same as earlier, the ice spread and froze everything around the area quickly. The temperature around me dropped drastically. Slowly, the monsters around me turned into ice sculptures. But since they were monsters, I didn't manage to freeze all of them. Some of them managed to dodge and charge towards me. But I used my other skill.

'Ice Lance.'

Seventy huge ice spikes appeared around me and launched at them.

[You have shot a Black Lizardead 942 HP] X2 X35*

*He shots each monster twice.

Since I couldn't use my fire skill, my Ice skill could do the same job. And since this was the last place, I didn't mind making a little mess. After all, this room was much wider than where we were before so I could kill them more freely.

As for the rest, I combined my Mana Weapon and my Freeze skill to kill them. In just under 5 minutes, I managed to turn half of the room white with my skill and kill all the monsters.

[All enemies have been defeated!]
