Chapter 318 Legendary (1)
Since the Mushrooms were only one meter and a half tall, they didn’t take up too much space. Hence, they appeared in groups of three. Considering their skills, Billy worried about how many of them would appear on the sixth floor… It wasn’t hard to imagine actually. In any case, they had other problems to be considered, even though they didn’t look that dangerous due to their size.Just as Billy said, Lily’s arrows pierced the monster’s heads when she imbued them with mana, but that takes a bit of time. So, eventually, two enemies managed to attack and used their Poisonous Breath. Fortunately, Billy reacted fast and pushed their breath away with a gust of wind. After that, Lily put some arrows on their heads. It was quite the effective way to deal with poison since it wasn’t something hard or dense, even a weak but vast enough gust of wind could stop it completely. It probably could stop all types of negative effects that need to enter the humans’ bodies through their noses… things would be different with a more concentrated attack.
”What are those used for?” Lily asked while Billy was taking a single small mushroom from the top of the monster’s head.
”Apparently, they are medicinal as well,” Billy replied. “Stomachaches, headaches, sore muscles… A good soup of those can help with that.”
”How something that came from a Poisonous monster is a good medicine?” Lily asked.
”How am I supposed to know?” Billy asked.
Although Billy said that, he imagined that the sleeping gas of the monster came from that mushroom, and that was basically an anesthetic that made people feel relaxed. The effect would be a lot weaker in a soup, but at least it wouldn’t put people to sleep.
”Ah… I don’t feel so good,” Lily said.
Billy opened his eyes widely when he saw Lily’s blue face. He used Analyze and confirmed that she had been poisoned… That was supposed to be impossible, but then Billy saw some small spores in the air… Probably the remains of another fight of another party. In any case, Lily had gotten poison Resistance, so Billy made the skill level up to ten. He didn’t feel anything because he already had the Resistance… Regardless, since the spores were in small quantities, Lily felt better.
”Thanks, I feel better now…” Lily said and then breathed deeply. “This place is really troublesome.”
”Just to be safe, clean yourself deeply before holding Lara upon returning home,” Billy said.
”Yes, some spores might have gotten attached to my body,” Lily said and then nodded. “Speaking of Lara, you know, she can stand on her two feet now, isn’t that amazing? She will soon be able to take steps and get up by herself!”
”Well, she is ten months old, after all,” Billy said. “Still, I am glad for you.”
”She also can say ‘ma’ and ‘pa’!” Lily said.
”I guess she is already halfway there,” Billy said. “Your parenting skills are pretty good.”
”Right? I bet dad will probably pass out when I surprise him by making her say grandpa,” Lily said.
While that kind of talk wasn’t bad, Billy wondered why the heck they were talking about that while fighting Poisonous monsters. It was a bit weird… Still, they had the skills that made them feel laid back and relaxed in such a situation.
The skill Sleep Gust was added to the skill shop.
Just as Billy thought, the monsters tried to use that small mushroom to use the sleep spell, but with wind magic, he countered that. Maybe it was a good idea to develop some Resistance toward that type of attack, but the spell costs two hundred skill points…
”You know, this morning when I was about to leave, Lara opened her arms as if she wanted to hug me and stop me from coming,” Lily said. “Wasn’t that so sweet?”
”Yes, more sweet than Vanilla cream cappuccino filled with whipped cream syrup, chocolate and caramel,” Billy said. “In any case, I guess we got a good feel of the fourth floor, we can go back now.”
”I have no idea what you said before, but all right,” Lily said.
When they left the dungeon, it was already dark since on the way back, the sun had set, and the monsters got more vicious. Hence, they lost more time facing them. Thanks to all that, Billy decided to head home and ignored the work with his tunnels. Despite that, they returned after midnight.
”I will see what I can do to help, even if I can’t go to that dungeon for the time being,” Lily said.
”It is fine, I will handle things on my end,” Billy said.
At that point in time, no one couldn’t say that Billy wasn’t committed to the work, so he had some ideas that he wanted to test out. However, he found his wives and kids waiting for him in his room before thinking them through. They were already sleeping, though. Fortunately, his bed was big enough. After giving them a kiss on the cheek, Billy went to sleep as well.
The next day was Sarah’s turn to help, but Alexander also showed up. It was probably Lily’s idea… She probably thought that with those two, things would be faster inside the dungeon, and Billy would be able to solve the problem a lot sooner. Her logic wasn’t flawed, but things weren’t so simple either.
”It seems things are getting interesting in the dungeon again, so I am here to help,” Alexander said.
”You said that the current monsters are strong against physical attacks and their numbers are bigger…Are you sure that your fighting style is the most suited for the occasion?” Sarah said.
”I don’t know until I fight them,” Alexander replied. “Until then, I will act like I can do it.”
Billy sighed. It must be nice to be an airhead with no worries. Still, thanks to the unexpected addition, Billy wanted to test even more things.
