By the furious attack of Musk, the Adventurer Guild Master, the entire ground in front of him trembled, crumbling and cracking! Blake who had already been thinking about a countermeasure was quickly surprised Musk was so quick to find a way to get the monster out of the underground.
BOOOM!!!
An enormous hole opened underground, as a mass of countless bones and stitched souls emerged! The entire group of surviving warriors, a composition made of knights, soldiers, hunters, an adventurers, opened their eyes wide before the monster in front of them!
"GRUOOOHHHH…!"
The creature was entirely made of bones unified by a slimy black and phantasmal blue essence, with two glowing red eyes, which were in fact its core. This monster wasn't merely a Bone Golem as Blake thought, but something akin to a Slime!
"A Miasma Slime!" Ellergest, who had lived a long life and fought many powerful monsters, immediately recognized the creature!
"Miasma Slime?!" Jack at his side wondered, as he had quickly joined the fray with Seth too. The two had doubted if they had the wits and strength to jump into the frontlines, but due to Jack's recklessness, Seth ended being forced to join as well.
"Ah! I remember we once fought one, four years ago… You weren't there yet." Seth said while he readjusted his glasses. His sharp eyes shone bright gold, as his magic was channeled. "However this monster is not like the one we exterminated back then, this is way stronger, and it is filled with bones it can control at will!"
"Yeah, the one we fought was a juvenile and small one, this thing is a full-fledged adult, and enhanced through the powers of this damn Necromancer." Said Ellergest.
"Holy Chains!" Jack recklessly jumped into the frontlines as everyone else except Blake's group were shocked at what they were seeing, his chains immediately reached the Miasmic Slime, trying to wrap around him.
SPLASH!
However, the slime easily ignored Jack's powerful Spirit, as it slid through the holes in the chains and freed itself without issues. Quickly noticing Jack and firing three bone projectiles at him!
"Ah, shit!"
"Holy Light Barrier!"
FLASH!
However, a little blonde girl with an angelic appearance emerged before Jack, conjuring a powerful magical barrier to protect him from the bones, which, strangely like Blake's [Shadow Manipulation] were also imbued with black miasma, changing their color, and allowing the slime to control them in midair.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
The Slime immediately fired some more against Elizabeth, trying to break her barrier by chipping it down with hundreds of attacks at the same time.
"Damn it, my spirit is not that well suited for battle." Said Seth, however, he quickly acted anyways. Combining his Ki and with his Mana and using his newly acquired Magic Bow to fire several arrows at the slime to distract it! "However, I have not been practicing this and using my saved-up money to buy a Magic Bow for nothing!"
Each arrow was specially made as well as they were coated in holy light by Seth, set to explode upon contact with a monster, each arrow he fired immediately exploded into a flash of bright light, damaging the slime lightly and annoying it, quickly making the monster aim at him.
"Light Arrow Shower!" Seth quickly took five more arrows and fired them together, as the arrows reached high above the Slime and then fell like falling stars!
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"GRUUOOOHHHH…!"
SPLAAASH!
The Miasmic Slime grew furious, as its body spread out into several tentacles and attempted to grab nearby people to crush and devour at the same time. However, Musk immediately intercepted one of its strongest attacks aimed at many.
"Rock… HAMMER!"
CRAAAASSSSHH!
An enormous, tempestuous blow shook the entire air as a shockwave that broke the sound barrier sent flying several onlookers away, as the slime received the full impact, its entire body, however, as it was made of liquid, easily resisted it!
SPLASH!
The slime simply fell as if it were made completely out of black water, only to easily restructure itself and point several bones at everybody, shaping some as gigantic arms which it controlled through some sort of telekinesis made from the very miasma it could control!
CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
These enormous bone fist began clashing over the ground, punching away the surrounding fighters and bringing chaos everywhere. The Miasmic Slime was extremely powerful, and it had been tanking hits easily!
However, Blake and company were not simply looking, but charging straight at it… from the skies!
"You damn kids…!"
Ellergest quickly realized something was blocking the light of the sun atop the skies, as a group of black dogs led by a red dog flew down towards the Miasmic Slime from above! It was Blake and Eleanora mounting Blood, while Eric, Chris, Erdrich, and Erika followed them from behind.
Surrounding them there was a gust of winds conjured by Blake, which allowed the wolves to fly across the skies temporarily, and then, they all recklessly charged down!
"A-Are you sure this is going to work?!" Asked Eric desperately.
"Yeah, I am ninety percent sure." Blake said with a smirk, reassuring Eric.
"Wait, only ninety?!" Eric asked.
"Just do it!"
Chris hurried Eric, as the timid and cowardly Eric quickly pointed his arrows at the Slime from above using his newly reinforced bow, which in the span of two minutes, was enhanced with Blake's magic using the wood of the Lesser Yggdrasil Tree born from Eric's staff by using the Tier 2 Nature Attribute Magic "Plant Control" to wrap the wood around Eric's weapon!
"Agh, don't blame me if I miss!" Eric said, as he suddenly channeled the power of his Mana, Ki, and the Spiritual Energy coming from within his Spiritual Orb, as his Vine Rose Spirit emerged, merging with his bow, and making it blossom with many red roses, his arrow flashed with bright green and golden light, unleashing a powerful ray of light!
FLAAASH!
BOOOOMMM!
"GRUUUGYH?!"
The Miasmic Slime gave out a weird groan, as it suddenly was pierced by this light!
