Villain Ch 903. Do You Wish To Continue?
Bella, trying to hold back a gag, managed a weak smile. "At least you're okay. We were worried something had happened to you."
Alice stepped closer, still keeping a bit of distance due to the stench. "We thought you might have been in trouble. It's good to see you're safe, even if you're... covered in that."
Allen appreciated their concern, even if his current state was less than dignified. "Thanks, guys. I didn't mean to worry you. The Dreadworm Overlord was tough, but I managed to take it down. I just didn't expect it to, well, explode like that."
Jane, still holding her nose, asked, "There must be a way to clean up somehow."
Allen shook his hands and legs, attempting to dislodge the persistent slime, but it clung to him stubbornly. "I tried to get rid of this, but they are annoying," he said, his frustration evident in his tone. "They cling to me like a bunch of hungry kittens."
Alice couldn't help but chuckle. "It's too smelly for a bunch of kittens."@@@@
Larissa, who had been examining the map, hummed thoughtfully. She pointed to a point on the map marked with a blue water symbol. The surrounding paths were still dark and unexplored, but it seemed close enough. "There's something like water or a stream marked here. Maybe you could clean yourself up there, Allen."
Allen waved his hand, summoning the hologram map in front of him. He frowned as he examined the point Larissa had indicated. "It looks more like a boss room than a stream," he remarked, with skepticism in his voice.
Vivian peered at her own map. "Yeah, that's too fishy. Why would the game developers put an underground stream in the middle of a dungeon like this?"
As if in response to his thoughts, the ominous clack of approaching monsters echoed through the cavern. The sound was unmistakable, a harsh clicking that signaled the presence of a group of creatures preparing to ambush them. It was coming from the front.
Immediately, the group tensed, their senses on high alert. They shifted into their attack stances, weapons ready. The red eyes of the monsters blinked in the darkness, and some of the creatures began to emerge from underground. There were more than twenty of them, their forms vaguely visible in the dim light.
Bella's fireballs glowed brighter, casting more light into the cavern and revealing the grotesque forms of the monsters. These creatures, a mix of beetle-like and spider-like horrors, moved with unsettling speed and coordination. The girls prepared to attack, confident in their ability to handle the situation even without Allen's direct help.
After all, they had faced similar groups before and emerged victorious.
The monsters charged, their red eyes glowing with a malevolent light. But as the girls braced for the impact, something strange happened. The creatures didn't attack them. Instead, they rushed past the group as if they were nothing more than obstacles in their path.
"What the—?" Zoe started, her tentacles raised in confusion.
The monsters barreled straight towards Allen, who was still trailing behind. He barely had time to react as the first of them lunged at him, its mandibles snapping.
"Seriously?!" Allen exclaimed. The creatures seemed drawn to him, perhaps attracted by the stench of the Dreadworm Overlord's slime or simply seeing him as the more isolated target.
Allen snapped his fingers. "Telekinesis Blast," he muttered, and a wave of force erupted from him, pushing the creatures back with tremendous energy. The monsters were thrown through the air, some crashing into the stone walls, others landing near the girls, startling them as they thudded to the ground.
Damage notifications flashed rapidly in Allen's field of vision, a train of red numbers indicating the impact of his blast. But Allen's focus was elsewhere—on the monsters' reactions. He watched them intently, his mind racing to understand their behavior. The creatures, despite being flung around, quickly recovered and turned their attention back to Allen.
