Chapter 118 Lava lake II
After the trio stepped onto the bridge, the door behind them closed with a loud bang.
They looked at each other and started walking on the narrow bridge in a straight line. All of them held their weapons tightly and looked at the surrounding snakes seriously.
Alec was in the front while Jian was walking between Kyle and Alec.
Alec looked back at Kyle and Jian.
"Why am I leading?"
Kyle gazed back at Alec with a deep expression.
"It's because you are the strongest."
Alec wanted to refute but closed his mouth because he was indeed the strongest but then he gazed at Kyle with suspicion.
'Am I really the strongest?'
He questioned inwardly as he didn't know Kyle's rank because of the white earring Kyle was wearing.
Bia was sitting on Kyle's shoulder to not become the food of the long fire-snakes who were jumping inside the lava lake.
They crossed the first few steps without much difficulty but after they crossed the starting point of the bridge one of the fire snakes jumped out from the lake and attacked Alec who was standing in the front.
With a loud hiss, the snake opened its mouth and a large lava ball came crashing into Alec.
Alec could have dodged the attack but Jian and Kyle were standing behind him that's why he clenched his sword and blocked the lava ball.
He was pushed back a little due to the impact of the attack but the lava ball didn't injure anyone.
After attacking the snake went back inside the lava lake. Alec sighed and started walking again.
Kyle was walking behind the duo, he seriously gazed at the long fire snakes jumping inside the lava lake.
While he was looking around, from his left a fire snake came out but this time instead of a lava ball. The snake opened its huge mouth to bite off Kyle's head.
"Shit!"
Kyle cursed and hurriedly formed five fireballs before throwing them at the snake's incoming head.
With a hiss, the snake backed off but instead of going back inside the lake, the snake attacked Kyle again because the fireballs didn't affect it at all.
At the same time, another snake came out from Kyle's right side and attacked.
Kyle's eyes widened. He immediately used the 'thunder arrow' skill to form two thunder arrows and attack the two snakes.
This time after getting hit the snakes retreated but then two more snakes came out from the lava lake.
Kyle hurriedly threw some more thunder arrows at the snakes. With a hiss, one of the snakes opened its mouth and tried to bite off Kyle's arm.
Kyle gazed at the incoming snake and slashed his sword vertically on the snake's head.
A large gash appeared on the snake head who shouted painfully and immediately entered the lava lake.
The other three snakes looked at the retreating injured snakes and their eyes turned red with anger.
'The situation is getting bad.'
With a serious expression, Kyle looked back to see how Alec and Jian were doing.
His eyes narrowed and he cursed because both of them were safely moving ahead of him.
He looked back at the snakes and grumbled inwardly.
'Why are they only attacking me!'
Kyle took a deep breath and gazed at the snakes who were ready to attack him any time.
"Fire-type skills won't work on them and I don't have any other offensive skill except from 'Thunder arrows'."
He sighed, his skill pool was good but he didn't have many low-ranked skills.
With a loud hiss, all three snakes attacked him at the same time.
Kyle clenched his sword while looking at the snakes. He knew he couldn't take them lightly because all three of them were (D)-Rank.
He activated the skill 'Swift steps' to increase his speed and slashed at one of the snakes before dodging the others.
On the other hand, Jian heard the sounds of battle and looked back at Kyle's situation. He immediately threw earth spikes at the snakes attacking Kyle.
The earth spikes crashed at the snake's bodies, making them shout in pain.
Kyle looked at the retreating snakes and hurriedly approached Alec and Jian.
"Thanks."
Jian nodded and all of them started walking on the bridge again.
While they were walking, five more snakes came out from the lake and attacked Alec who was at the front.
Jian and Kyle both were ready to attack but before they could, Alec used one of his (S)-Rank skills 'Crushing thunder'.
Five large thunderbolts appeared on top of the snake's head. The snake's eyes widened with horror when they saw the thunderbolts but it was too late because within a second the thunderbolts hit their heads.
After getting hit by the thunderbolts all the snakes cried out miserably and a large amount of blood gushed out from their heads.
Within a second, their bodies dropped back inside the lava lake. Alec sighed and again started walking.
After fighting with the snakes for fifteen minutes, they finally reached the end of the bridge but then suddenly a large snake came out from the lava lake.
The trio was frozen when they saw the snake.
It was different from the other (D)-Rank snakes because its body was covered with black scales and its eyes were completely pitch black.
The snake gazed at the trio with its pitch-black eyes and a huge pressure descended on them.
"(C+)-Rank."
Alec mumbled and gazed at the snake with gritted teeth. Kyle and Jian's expression also turned dark when they saw the black snake.
Kyle looked at the snake, he really had the urge to use 'Instant Teleportation' and leave the bridge but he didn't do it because if he abandoned the duo again, Alec and Jian would probably beat the hell out of him the next time they saw him.
Even though the snake was powerful, Kyle was sure if he worked together with Alec and Jian they could defeat it.
At the same time, the snake gazed at the trio like it was looking at lower beings. After giving them a disdainful look it went back inside the lava lake.
Alec, Jian, and Kyle looked at the retreating snakes and sighed with relief.
"Huu.. I almost thought we were going to become the snake's food."
Jian said and hurriedly left the bridge, he didn't want to see the snake again. Alec and Kyle also left the bridge.
Bia who was quiet all the time finally released her breath when Kyle left the bridge. She flapped her wings and started flying before gazing at the trio.
Their condition wasn't good at all because various burned marks could be seen on their bodies. Also, their clothes were tattered.
-'They looked just like beggars.'
She exclaimed inwardly while looking at the trio pitifully.
