Chapter 678 Against Floor 2'S Mid Boss



-----

Ding!

[The [Poisonous Mushroom Titan King (C++ Rank)] has emerged due to the massacre of his own children!]

[His very presence sends a powerful aura of Mana and Poison everywhere, all those that step into this domain will be instantly poisoned, losing HP each second.]

[Additionally, all Mushroom-type monsters within the domain will have their stats boosted by +50%.]

"GRUOOOOHHHH!"

A walking mushroom of over 30 meters of height emerged from the floor. It was utterly enormous, perhaps it has been sleeping there for a long while, and it was also C++ Rank, so it was nothing to scoff at.

"GRYOOH!"

"GYOGYOH!"

"GROOOH!"

The dozens of other Walking Mushrooms started roaring before the presence of their King arriving at the scene. They raised their big arms and celebrated happily, while their King's aura boosted their stats even more.

"Amazing, looks like they're all pretty happy!" Laughed Hendrick. "Their power has grown greatly! I see, so aside from bugs, there's this group of mushrooms obeying a king! Fascinating! My Lord, let me extract their poison!"

"Sure, go wild." I smiled.

"EXCELLENT!" Hendrick stepped forwards, rushing towards the King and then clashing against it all alone. He was one crazy guy sometimes.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!

The King seemed rooted into the floor, incapable of moving out, but it had several arms, and all of them moved incredibly fast. It also had the ability to rotate around rapidly like a cylinder.

He used his long, spider-like legs emerging from his back to easily intercept the attacks from the giant Mushroom, all while he conjured his unique magic and skills. Meanwhile, the rest of us were currently fighting crazed giant mushrooms.

"Let's see if you can resist this! [Alchemical Compound Synthesis]!" He laughed. "Let's turn that poison of you into explosive materials! Oh, and let's combine it with this too... [Explosive Venom]!"

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

"GRYOOOHHH...!"

Countless explosions covered the giant mushroom titan king, its body started slowly weakening and being covered on wounds, though they instantly recovered.

"GRUOOHHH!"

It swung several arms at once against Hendrick, slapping him down into the floor like a ragdoll.

"GUH...!"

BAAAAMMM...!

"A-Ahahahah... That hurt a bit." Hendrick sighed, standing back up.

"GRUOOH!"ηoveluSB.cOm

The enormous hands reached up to him, as he smiled.

"[Electrifying Kick]!"

FLAAAASH!

However, Woo appeared right in front of him, unleashing a powerful kick imbued with Ki and Mana, releasing a thunderous blow.

CRAAAASSSHHH!!!

"GRYYYAAAEEGGH...!"

The Mushroom King cried in agony, several of its arms being blown up to bits wasn't something pretty to see at all, for sure.

"What are you doing, you absolute idiot?!" Woo reprimanded Hendrick.

"Huh? I am completely fine though?" Hendrick sighed. "I was about to discover the mushroom's power even more!"

"You're a bit too obsessed with all poisonous things, brat..." Woo sighed.

"I think I might be older than you, Woo." Laughed Hendrick.

"GRUOOOHHH!"

"Agh! Just shut up and concentrate into the battle!" Woo angrily said.

"Alright!" Hendrick laughed.

BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAM!

The Mushroom Titan King released a series of punching blows, blowing the earth off the floor. And then, suddenly, several tentacle-like roots emerged from its foot, attacking everybody with piercing, deadly blows.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!

"Ugh! This damn thing!" Woo groaned, intercepting the attacks using his kick and punches. However, finding the monster extremely tough. "This thing's not easy to deal with! The tougher monsters before, the harder it is to break their energy fluctuations... I've already tried to hit its Ki points several times, but this thing just keep blowing punches like nothing."

"It must be because of its unique body and being so big and strong!" Hendrick said. "Mushrooms aren't made of flesh and lack muscles after all, they're made of a soft, spongy body!" He said, while evading piercing root tentacle attacks and unleashing explosive venom bombs.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!

Countless explosions spread across the air surrounding the Mushroom King, yet still nothing. The two Vampire Spirits were, however, doing very well on distracting the beast for now, as we finally managed to massacre the last groups of walking mushrooms.

"[Blazing Fox Flame Storm]!" Chris roared, unleashing a destructive tornado made up of countless tiny foxes made of flames combined together, absolutely devastating the last Mushrooms.

FLUOOOOOOOSSSHH!!!

Once it was finally over, what was left were merely a few tens of corpses resting over the floor, covered on flames and charred. However, Elfriedden quickly let go of a freezing gust, freezing all corpses and stopping the flames.

"Hey! Why did you do that?!" Chris asked.

"The more they burn, the stronger the toxin in their poison will become." Sighed Elfriedden. "That's something I read in the information book of this dungeon."

"O-Oh, I had no idea..." Chris said in surprise.

"Well, that's to be expected of someone as dumb as you." Elfriedden laughed while giving Chris a teasing smile.

"What did you said?!" Chris angrily said. "Want me to burn your damn face, princy?!"

"Hoh? What can a third-rate magician like you even do?" Elfriedden mocked him even more. "I would sweep the floor with your face."

"Y-You damn...!" Chris was about to shoot a fireball at Elfriedden when I stopped him.

"Enough, don't pointlessly fight for nothing." I sighed. "How about we concentrate in the real challenge here?" I smiled, pointing at the giant creature that had been constantly self-regenerating.

Fang and Saphira had already joined Woo and Hendrick in the meantime, while Eleanora appeared behind me with a smile. Even when four spirits were against that thing, it was still rather mighty.

"Seems like they're not fully capable of slaying it..." Eleanora said.

"It's not that, I am just simply limiting how much Mana they can use so they don't drain me out of it all so fast." I explained. "If I let them go all-out, they would surely be able to massacre it, but inside a dungeon, we have to save our strength after all, we have yet to even reach the end of this Floor."

"Right!" Eleanora nodded. "Then allow me to join into defeating this foe!"

"Sure, let's go all together." I said with a smile. "It'll surely give a nice chunk of EXP."
