Chapter 619 - Entering The Dark Poison Swamp (1/2)
The next day.
All twelve people were standing not far from the Dark Poison Swamp, looking at it as they waited for the air to stop coming out of the ground.
Theo observed the terrain. Like a normal swamp, he could see small tunnels connecting the water and some snow that had been dyed green or orange.
They had been contaminated by the poisonous substance, but luckily, there was no gas visible anymore. In other words, the snow managed to trap the gas inside.
”We will soon go,” said Lorenzo while looking at Ana's team. He recalled the discussion yesterday and continued, ”Your team will handle the monsters like us. If there's a Supreme Rank Monster, we will cooperate with each other to defeat it.
”If it's not possible, we will buy time until I can teleport us again. Okay?” Lorenzo asked for their confirmation.
”Got it.” Ana agreed without hesitation.
Seeing less and less poisonous air coming out of the ground and floating not far from the ground, the group knew it was time for them to make a move.
”Wear your mask. The mask should be able to withstand this level of poison, and by the time this mask is ineffective, the air should be good to breathe.” Lorenzo announced.
All of them immediately picked up their masks as Lorenzo snapped his fingers, using his Teleportation.
The entire group disappeared as they were sent to a small plain inside the Dark Poison Swamp.
Theo and the others immediately looked around to see whether they had a problem or not.
As if noticing something, Theo suddenly leaped from the ground.
”Below the snow,” Theo shouted as he saw a green-colored snake leaped into the air, trying to bite him.
However, it was soon sliced into two by Lorenzo as Theo shouted, ”More are coming. They're not strong, but they have numbers.”
”Use your Awareness to check your surroundings.” Lorenzo and Ana shouted.
Six of them then leaped out of the ground as there were more and more snakes coming out.
Ava kicked one of them while Theo pierced the one coming for Lorenzo.
After that, Theo looked to the side, wondering about the power of the other team.
When Ana leaped into the air, two snakes came out at the same time.
Without hesitation, Alea used both swords to take them down, leaving herself vulnerable. Another snake came out to attack her, but a small ice bolt fell on top of the snake and formed a crystal that trapped the snake before it shattered into pieces.
”Theo.” Agata called him and asked, ”Should I handle all of them? They're not strong.”
”Got it. Just handle those around us.” Theo nodded while warning all of them. ”You better not move.”
Lorenzo raised his hands in defeat. ”Please.”
