ALL NOVEL Chapter 1333: Trapped Hero
Chapter 1333: Trapped Hero
Allan found himself fighting alone against the crystal miasmic aberration, a Tier 10 monstrosity that could shift through the endless corridors of miasmic crystal and manipulate everything to its will. This was the Evil God of Dungeon's second trump card, a massively powerful monster made from these very caves, fueling endlessly from its powers.
It was the very origin of all the clones coming out of the walls, and as the group progressed through the corridors, it quickly revealed its true form, chasing them and aiming to bait Allan to fight it instead of accompanying the rest of the children.
Indeed, the Evil God was quite cunning, aiming to separate father and daughter just like he had done many times before, especially in Sylphy's first encounter with a Demon Lord, the giant skeleton that had overwhelmed Sylphy and Aquarina and almost killed them both.
The truth was, that even as they lived their lives peacefully, the Evil God of Dungeons knew very well of the threat that Sylph was for him, even more the heroes, and couldn't simply waste this opportunity to take them down.
From a small mistake, the dungeon ended triggering a much more dangerous event, one that threatened everyone's lives.
"GRUOOHHH!"
The gigantic crystal aberration roared with utmost fury, rushing towards Allan and clashing against his sword with its countless scythe-like arms.
Allan ferociously attacked back, swinging his giant blazing sword and unleashing countless explosive slashing attacks, while blocking and parrying the monster's blows.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"{Blazing Spirit Storm}!"
Once the monster's entire body was pierced dozens of times, Allan unleashed a blast of spiritual flames from his hands, trying to bomb the entire thing into ashes.
BOOOM!
The monster exploded and shattered into countless pieces, its pieces turned mostly into ashes, as silence quickly befell the entire corridor.
"Hahh... Is that it?"
Allan wondered, looking around in confusion. He had no time to waste though, the presence in the end of the corridor was tremendously strong, and he simply couldn't let Sylphy and the rest fight that thing alone.
Even less when the Felicia with them was only her Homunculi, not the real deal!
"I have to hurry!"
He quickly stepped towards where Sylphy and the rest had gone, his conviction set into saving everyone, unable to realize the creeping claws coming from behind him.
From the ceiling, floor, and walls...
"Ugh?!"
The moment he heard them moving, it was almost too late, they clashed against his body, pummeling him down several times, trying to shred him to pieces, trying to infect him with miasma, and more!
"It isn't dead?!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Allan ferociously slashed them apart with his blazing sword and then generated a shockwave of flames, blowing away the crystalline claws once more, only to be greeted by a gigantic set of jaws above him.
"What?!"
The gates opened, releasing a powerful breath attack against him, composed mostly entirely out of pure black miasmic flames, his entire body took it head-on, unable to respond in time as he was fighting and defending from dozens of attacks coming from everywhere.
BOOOM!
The explosion sent his body flying, as Allan felt a small wound on his back, which quickly started festering due to the miasma, making him grow weaker!
"It harmed me...!" he thought. "Just how strong is that thing?! {Phoenix Healing Flames}!"
Allan conjured Phoenix Healing Flames, covering his wounds with them, and quickly purifying the miasma while closing his wounds rapidly, right in time for giant spears of purple, red, and black crystals coming his way.
"Not anymore, bastard," Allan grew serious. "{Salamander's Breath}!"
A giant head of a blazing salamander surged from his Spiritual Aura, blowing up all the spears before they came.
BOOOM! BOOOM!
But right after that, more emerged, giant claws rushing to impale his body, a dozen more spears, and another giant jaw charging yet another breath attack of their own.
"The coordination is way too much!" Salamander said. "Allan, I believe you're not just fighting several of these monsters...!"
"What? What do you mean?!" Allan asked.
"It is pretty obvious, this monster... It's the entire damn cave, this gigantic nest, the Miasmic Nest itself made of crystalized miasma!" Phoenix said.
"What?!"
Allan had his doubts about this creature, but to think that the entire nest, a gigantic structure that was over five hundred meters large, was actually a single living being...
It was a terrifying thought!
"Would make sense why it's so damn strong!"
Allan covered most of his body with Phoenix Wings coming from his Aura, as countless explosions bombarded him, which he easily tanked with the powers of Phoenix.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"RAAAH!"
He roared mighty, quickly swinging his blazing blade again, unleashing explosions of spiritual holy flames that purified the crystals for a split second, giving him enough time to regain his footing and continue turning them into ashes, digging through them.
"If I can't beat that thing individually, then I'll start turning everything into ashes!" Allan continued carving through everything, giant Salamander Claws and Phoenix Talons appeared above his head, made out of his blazing aura, tearing through the endless labyrinth
of crystals!
At the same time, he was being chased by these monstrosities, drawing, and creeping closer with each passing second. Sometimes coming right from his front, the left, right, or above!
"{Blazing Sword Domain}!"
FLUOSH!
Allan activated his Domain Ability, spreading a mighty domain made of endless fire blades, which he fired towards all directions, bombarding the incoming attacks.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As those attacks turned to ashes, he continued digging through the miasmic nest, realizing
that the crystals were trying to regenerate at a ridiculous speed!
"What! It's regenerating already?! This is ridiculous! Dammit, Sylphy!"
Allan was worried sick about his daughter, but he had to either prioritize taking care of this monstrosity or go help his daughter, and risk making this thing chase them.
After all...
"I believe this thing has a soul of its own, one which is concentrating within this area around you!" said Phoenix. "It might not be annoying Sylphy and the rest, it has fully concentrated
its powers on defeating you."
"I can tell...!" Allan sighed. "But it's good to know they're not bothering my family."
Then the Hero smiled, as countless clones of himself made of the walls' crystals rushed
towards him.
"That means I can go all-out without worrying."
A blazing white and golden flame blazed with intensity within his Heart.
