New Life Online - Chapter 290 Swamp Lurker

-Swamp Land, Mushy Land-

“ROAAAAAAR!” It’s just been three hours since we traveled from Other Side Guild to here, swampland or whatever you call this smelly and disgusting place. No wonder they didn’t stay too long here. And what the hell is wrong with all these monsters?! They’re all insanely huge for random monsters!

“LIGHT BARRIER!” I checked what’s going on and Zia used her protective spell to protect the others from the attacks of the Giant Ugly Worms!

“Aheem, guys… RUUUUUN!” She yelled. As I looked closely, damn those bastards can shoot acid! It’s melting the Light Barrier so fast like it’s cotton candy!

“Guys, I need a little help…” Pie, who’s a tank and covered in heavy armor is sinking in this mud! Not only this place is smelly as hell, the land is wet and if you’re heavy enough, you’ll sink in!

“Just drop those heavy gears and wear your beginner’s clothes!” Nice advice Zia.

“BOOK SLAP!” Suddenly, Uri threw a book on Pie’s head and undead hands slowly appeared below Pie and pushed him up.

“Nice job Uri! But I don’t think that throwing of the book is necessary.” I said.

“LIGHT SWORD!” Zia used a spell creating a sword of light towards one of the Smelly Giant Worm!

*CLAAAANG* It doesn’t show it but those darn Giant Worms have tough freaking skin! Zia’s light sword almost pierced the Giant Worm’s skin but for some reason, it bounced back.

“If piercing attacks won’t work, how about this! CHERRY BOMB!” A super loud explosion happened after Chelly used a spell and was hit by her war hammer creating a massive force of different magic spells towards the Ugly Giant Worm!

*BOOOOOM BOOOOOM!* Those massive powerful spells pushed one of the Giant Worms and it fell to the ground! I can tell that huge force can knock it down but it’s not enough to deal enough damage.

*GROUND WAVES* Not only that but the ground was so soft that after the Giant Worm hits the ground, it made a small tremor making a wave staggering everyone.

There’s like three of those Giant Worms and thank God they’re so slow.

for visiting.

“ROOOOOOOAR!” Those screams from those giant worms are creating shockwaves pushing us back!

*SWOOOOOOSH!* One of the Giant Worm started to wave its tail or whatever it is and hit the ground splashing that a large number of muds towards us! We need a huge defense to stop that! Where are the other teams when you need them! Oh right… I only have my team…

“EARTH’S PRESSURE!” Suddenly, those giant flying muds started to fall faster and fell to the ground before even reaching us. Great Job Uri! We need to do something or we won’t be able to move on if we get stuck here. They should have a weakness of some sort.

“Pie, bring Uri with you and get closer to the Giant Worms. Be careful and try to find their weakness. Everyone, scatter and get their attention.” I ordered.

“Roger that.” Everyone replied and so we scattered.

*SWOOOOOSH SWOOOOSH!* The Giant Worms used their tails again to harass us with flying mud but thankfully, we’re scattered this time and those flying mud are too slow to hit us. Moving on this mud is hard though.

They reached them in just a short period of time and trying to circle around a Giant Worm to check if they can find any weaknesses.

“We need to use a wide area of effect skills to find the weak spot,” Pi reported.

“I guess… it’s time for…”

“One more! CHERRY BOMB!” Once again, Chelly used her signature move and a massive blast of flame hit the Gian Worm!

*BOOOOOOOM!* The Giant Worm was ablazed out of nowhere! The spell was so powerful that it only made a loud boom echoed throughout the area. It’s so strong that it almost burnt the body of the Giant Worm.

“Found it! The back of its tail was burnt to crisp. We need to focus on the back of its tail to pierce its body!”

“Good work… what the hell Chelly, you just used two spell and now you’re lying on the ground! Someone help her… she’s sinking on the mud.”

“Now it’s really my…”

“BRIGHT EDGE’S OVERSIZED LIGHT SWORD!” What the hell… Zia sliced the tail of the Giant Worm. She already moved towards the Worm after Pie told them its weakness. She’s really changed. She’s so used to fighting that she doesn’t need any orders to finish the job.

One of the worms fell to the ground creating another tremor because of its size. The severed tail part of the worm released acid all over the place melting everything it touches. The Giant Worm’s body tried to move but after a couple of seconds, it stopped and finally died. I can’t even use anything and they’re finishing the job.

At that point, we already know how to defeat the Giant Worms and slaughtered the remaining ones.

-Deeper Part of the Swamp Land-

We’re getting farther and I can’t see anything that is green. All I can see is purple slimy liquid and disgusting mud. Dead trees are all over the place as well. I can’t believe I decided to train at this kind of place. Wait, I can feel something, not sure what it is but it doesn’t feel right.

“Yes, sexy, I can feel it too. It seems like there’s a powerful monster around.” Kyut’s right. It feels strange, it’s like there’s a monster but I am not sure as well.

“Guys, be careful, I’m not sure but I feel something strange. Be careful and keep an eye on your asdsda”

Something grabbed my foot below the ground and pulled me down! I’m now being pulled like crazy and I can’t see anything because I don’t freaking know where I’m currently at! THIS ENDS NOW!

“FIRE BOOSTER!” I used my fire booster to stop the thing from pulling me but… it won’t let me go! This thing is tough!

“DARKSLICE!” I used my dagger and tried to reach the thing on my foot and finally, it stopped! Damn it, I’m covered in disgusting mud deep down. Now I’m mad!

“FIRE BOOSTER!” I need to get out of this mud or I’ll suffocate to death. I put a lot of effort and rushed my way out. Why is it always me who gets in trouble?

“SWOOOOSH SWOOOOSH!” I sensed a lot more and tried my best to avoid all of it while trying to get out of this mud. Gahhhh! Not this ti…

*GRASP* Ack! One got me from the waist! It was a tentacle! Not a good sign or else I’m gonna be in the wrong genre! It’s holding me harder and it’s so hard to move!

Damn it, Shade! Do something!

I was able to slip through it by shade’s passive. He could have done that in the first place. Pay attention!

“Not guilty… at all.” Damn it, Shade!

“Kyut, let’s make a way! EARTH SHATTERING LIGHTNING THUNDER!” I created a lightning coming from above the ground and made a whole to my current position splitting the mud for a second and I rushed as fast as I could to get out of the damn place.

“Scy! Are you alright?! You sink a lot. Also, you stink…” Zia said.

“Thanks, I’m alright. I just swam right through that… Jeez… Now guys, get ready, I think something disgusting is coming. Guard up. Team Scy, let’s see if you really deserved to be on this team.” I said to make sure they won’t mess up.

“Coming from someone who just got caught out of nowhere.”

“Zia, jeez. That’s called scouting. for now, let’s get ready!”

*BOOOOOOOM!* A loud explosion happened from a bit far from us and the ground started to burst and a giant… wait what the hell is that?!

“That is now what I was expecting… at all…” Seriously…
