Chapter 321 Legendary (4)

Billy summarized the problems caused by the monster. The first was their high attack, the second was the surprise element and the third… Was that they could cause problems with their breath attacks if they use for long. So, basically, Billy had to prevent the monsters from doing all that… There wasn't a weapon or magic item that could help him with that, but there was a way to stop the monsters from doing all that. However, Sarah was the most suited one to do that. Unfortunately, she still was learning how to create reserves of mana connected to her body. Things won't go as planned it seems...

"I have a plan, but I don't know if it will work," Billy said. "However, you and the other parties will have to wait for me to reach the seventh floor."

"Convincing the other parties will be hard… They clearly don't like you," Alexander said.

"Well, we will give them a warning. They can, but they will freeze to death if they want to go ahead," Billy said.

"What are you plotting this time…" Alexander said.

Sarah could imagine what Billy wanted to do, and in the end, it was only something he could do. It was quite insane, but his tunnels were also something that logic doesn't explain.

"Hah? Why should we let your groups get ahead of us on the exploration?"

"We won't get ahead. You can come with us if you want," Billy said. "I am planning to freeze a good part of the seventh floor. That way, when they appear, the monsters will be covered in ice. Their defense and mobility will be compromised, so killing them will be easy. I will let you guys go ahead, but we will split the materials evenly if my plan works."

"You want to freeze the entire seventh floor? That is impossible."

The adventurers began to complain and said that it was just an excuse for Billy to catch up with them… So, he made a small demonstration. He pointed his hand toward a place in the distance where no one was on the way, and he used his ice magic. In a single instant, Billy froze the air and created a two hundred meters long ice walls. That consumed five thousand points of mana… as expected, Billy won't be able to freeze the entire seventh floor.

"I will cover the walls, the ground and the ceiling like that, but it will be a version more focused on the scope instead of power," Billy said. "Still, you will freeze to death if you go ahead of us."

The adventurers couldn't help but open their eyes in amazement. Some of them knew magic, but that kind of spell was way beyond them. Sarah could replicate something similar since it was her speciality, but she would have to use all of her mana.

"... What guarantee will we have that you won't just kill all the monsters with that?"

"They only appear when we are close, and while the cold might kill them, it will take a while," Billy replied.

"All right… Let's go with your plan, at least for today."

Billy sighed. He couldn't blame those guys for acting like that since they had to act while considering the interest of their entire party, but he wished that he could try to sound less of a jerk. It was hard to act reasonably with those guys considering their words alone…

In any case, the four parties headed toward the dungeon together, and that caused quite the uproar. Billy had learned that Paule tried to make those three parties work together to find the last room of the dungeon, but it never worked. So, Paule and the others couldn't help but be amazed at Billy's negotiating skills. It wasn't anything impressive. If one had the power to freeze a good part of the dungeon, they would be as persuasive as him.

In any case, the progress of those three parties was quite something. When the monsters appeared, one party would stay behind to deal with them and then the next would deal with the next group of enemies. It was easy for them to reach the others before the battle started since they were all veterans. Thanks to that, they reached the fourth floor after just two hours and the seventh after just seven. Even though all parties used to walk for an entire day to reach that part… They couldn't deny it. They worked well together.

Once they found the entrance to the next floor, Billy stepped forward and then took a deep breath. He knew what happens when he uses too much, so some preparation was necessary. After some time, Billy pointed both hands toward the entrance, and then a powerful gush of cold wild went downward. The others saw the borders of the entrance being completely taken by ice, and even though they were far away, they could help but shiver in the cold.

The blast of cold wind was pretty powerful, but Billy kept firing it for quite a while, and much to his surprise, he didn't feel much of a headache after he was done. Just slight dizziness.

"I guess we are ready to go," Billy said while shaking his head.

"I forgot to ask, but how are we going to walk?" Alexander said.

"Don't worry about that," Billy said.

While going down, they noticed that while it was a bit slippery, the ground hadn't been completely frozen. The ice was there, but it was just a thin and concentrated layer. In any case, as soon as they reached the seventh floor, the monsters began to emerge, but since the ice was on its way, they emerged while being covered by it, and they quickly began to freeze. While making the ice of the spots disappear… they lost their speed, and they could easily be seen before they could use their attacks, the adventurers stepped forward and killed them mercilessly.
