Chapter 348 346- Last Floor
Zach was breathing heavily, and he was drenched in his own sweat. He was tired from fighting, but the side effects of the demonification had begun to appear a while ago when he was clearing the 99th floor.
Currently, Zach was fighting against the monsters on the 100th floor.
As the player reached closer to the 100th floor, the difficulty obviously increased, but not in a way one would think. After the 94th floor, all the floors had strong bosses.
Floor 100th was supposed to be the same with one strong boss. However, there was more than one boss.
The 100th floor was dark and seemed more like an enormous chamber rather than a dungeon floor. Of course, the floor appearance or the environment didn't matter to Zach, but the bosses on the 100th floor were unlike anything he had fought before.
There were statues, colossal statues that could crush anyone under their feet. They were so tall that an average adult human would seem smaller than an ant. And there were not one but a dozen of them.
When Zach first entered the floor, he waited for the boss to spawn, only to realize later that the statues weren't for decoration, but they were the bosses.
Normally, he would have suspected it as soon as he entered the floor, but the number of the boss was supposed to be one, not twelve,
Not only that, but the status was just tall, and they had powers too. Some could use magic, while the rest were using their sheer physical strength with their weapons.
They all attacked at the same time, making it hard for Zach to dodge. He could avoid one, two, or even five attacks at once, but dodging twelve attacks at once wasn't an easy task when his body was in pain and had become heavy because of the side effects of the demonification.
However, he still managed to avoid most of their attacks while taking minimal damage. But since some of them could use magic, there was no limit to how much they could attack at once. The attacks were also unpredictable unlike the physical attacks.
If it was someone other than Zach, they would have been overwhelmed and died within less than ten seconds unless they were in a party and had top-tier skills.
'What should I do? They are not giving me any chance to attack them. All I am doing is jumping here and there to save myself, but that exhausts me even more. I have to do something before this pain renders me useless. I don't think even Cerberus can handle this floor alone. They are freaking statues!
I first tried using the cursed dagger, but it couldn't penetrate their body. Punching and kicking it didn't work either.
I have enough MP left, and I am currently at level 98. Clearing this floor would surely make me a level 99 player. I don't care about reaching level 100 right now. I can get there later, but only if I survive.
Should I use my blessings? I won't use the Demon King's blessing since I can't control it, but I can control the Phoenix's blessings.historical
However, I am going to suffer in hell. The side effects are not affecting my HP or anything, they are breaking the foundation of my soul. If I push my body more, I might become crippled. That would be the worst thing.'
Zach thought all that while dodging the attacks from the bosses. So many things were going on in his mind that he couldn't come up with a proper plan.
'Do they not have a weakness? Surely, they do, right? Everything in this world has weaknesses.'
Amid his thoughts, he came up with a simple plan, which was to attack them one by one and decrease them in number.
He jumped to the nearest statue and used DT on him, turning him into ashes in less than a second.
'Holy shit! That drained more than 40% of the MP I had. I can now only use DT one more time! Well, fuck it! I am tired of jumping! I will just go all out!'
Zach jumped on the next statue and used DT on it too.
'Now I only have enough MP required to heal Cerberus. I can't use it. I don't think I will be able to walk out of this floor on my foot.'
'I guess Xie Lua has to wait for tomorrow to get today's supply of the MP potions.'
Zach used five hundred 50MP potions and increased his MP by 25000.
"Let's go bitches!"
Zach ran past three more statues and used DT on them. And then one more.
'There are six more statues.'
Zach took a deep breath and muttered, "If I am going to suffer hell later, then adding some more pain won't make much of a difference."
He activated Xie Lua's blessings and manifested a half-phoenix's form.
'I was expecting an upgrade in the form since Xie, and I are lovers now, but I guess that's not how it works. The only possibility I can think of is that it needs fore soul powers to manifest a full Pheonix form.'
Zach jumped in the air and pointed his fire hand at the statue.
"Burn into ashes!"
Zach intended to burn the statues into ashes, but Pheonix''s fire was so scorching that instead of turning them into ashes, it reached far above their boiling point and became glass.
However, Zach didn't want them to break free, so he kept using the fire and approached them. The glass hardened even more, but it eventually started to melt with the statues.
Then, Zach used his brute strength to punch them again and again in the Phoenix's form and broke them into pieces.
[Congratulations! You have cleared the last dungeon of the first main realm!]
[Leveled up!]
Zach received the rewards even though he wasn't interested in them. The only thing he was interested in was a way to increase his soul powers.
