Chapter 58 - Generals?!

Having been raised to Level 33, I felt way stronger than before. Now that my growth rates had grown so much, each level granted me a large amount of stats. It felt like I gained muscle mass and more mana at each level, which created this feeling of exhilaration and even a bit of ecstasy… Although nothing beats being with Kireina in the night, this feeling is still quite intoxicating.

After killing the Scarlet Armored Fresh Cricket, I flew towards its corpse and picked it up into my Inventory, it had a scarlet material that could be used to upgrade my equipment once more, so I decided to save it.

Alongside that, it dropped one Soul Sphere of Mana and a small pile of gold, which was all saved up for now.

I hurried up collecting the loot because there wasn't any time to waste, everyone around me already noticed that a large horde of Scarlet Armored Flesh Cricket Soldiers was rushing directly at me, and after dealing with the small fry, they all flew at my side to assist me.

"I will take care of the small ones!" said Kireina.

Kireina was expanding her flesh by using her Nyarlathotep Skill, expanding her twisting, gibbering, and pulsating flesh, and forming eyes all around, alongside large jaws, which she used to catch the monsters and devour them alive. She took care of most of the annoying small fry that was still trying to get near us, as the large army of Scarlet Armored Flesh Cricket Soldiers finally reached our position, jumping towards us and unleashing a barrage of energy bullets thrown from their kicks!

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

Ervas waved his hand as he generated a barrier of Telekinesis over us, which I assisted by making another barrier made of shadows using the new capabilities of my equipment, Shadow Ward!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Meanwhile, Vudia generated a dozen of Magic Gold Bullets, shaping them as balls and firing them by overcharging them with electricity, making them fly at the speed of a bullet if not faster!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

With each Clash, one of the Scarlet Crickets died quickly after, their entire bodies made into Swiss Cheese by Vudia's amazing offensive capabilities!

Meanwhile, Anna reached to the frontlines and confronted the Scarlet Crickets sticking to our barrier, using her thundering cursed axe, Axe-chan, to unleash powerful slashing attacks that were charged with black thunder!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Each slash of her axe unleashed a powerful wave of black thunder that could slice through the Crickets with ease, like a hot knife through butter!

The Crickets were sliced into pieces and grilled alive, as I saw the slaughter, Cuco, and the other beasts rushed to the frontlines as well.

My cat used its newly poisonous claws and coated them in shadows alongside all of his body, rushing like a flash of darkness towards his foes and slashing them with countless sneaky attacks, sometimes grabbing them with his jaws and crushing their heads at the same time.

The Evolved Queen Bee summoned her tiny bee soldiers, which after her evolution now carried sharper metallic stingers whose poison was not effective against the crickets, but that could still do great damage. She was able to summon up to 20, but even if they died, they turned into mana and went back to her so she could summon more.

The viper slapped the crickets with his strong tail, which was covered in strong golden scales. Although his poison didn't work in these beasts, his fangs were still deadly, and he used them to tear down the armor of the monsters.

Meanwhile, the newest member, the Fused Flesh Spider, leaped around and used its sharp armored legs to slice through some of the Scarlet Crickets, but it was fairly weaker than the rest and required more assistance from Cuco and the other monsters.

While everyone fought, I was also putting my all into the fight, unleashing several spiraling blue flame attacks that encompassed several meters around me, burning through the ranks of the Crickets while combining Phantasmal Fire with Dark Winds.

The beasts were fried alive one by one, dropping items after items, and infusing me with more EXP.

After a few dozen of groups were slain with my Sanguine Sword and Phantom Flames combination, I leveled up again.

Ding!

As we kept slaying monsters, we reached a point where the small fry crickets stopped showing up and only Scarlet ones emerged, and we continued advancing through the forest while defeating anything we came into contact with.

It felt weird how there were so many god damn bugs, it was as if this forest was some kind of separate dimension that actually made the entire place even vaster than how it really was.

As we advanced through, I mercilessly slashed away anything on my path by covering my staff into darkness and blue flames, shaping it as a blade and unleashing Sanguine Sword, draining my Vitality but immediately regaining it with each Kill.

Sometimes they would rush at me and attack me, but nothing that a fast Holy Light Beam couldn't solve! Each beam easily burned these critters alive, although some were resilient enough to survive up to four beams, these were the new and more buffed versions, Scarlet Cricket Generals, who sported up to 4 meters of height and strong jaws that would easily tear my head apart from my neck if it could.

"GRRYSHA!"

A group of four of these larger Generals rushed towards me, their kicks unleashed almost beam-like energy attacks of crimson-red color, which I evaded swiftly, although sometimes they impacted my body and broke a few bones, but nothing that my natural regeneration as a Dhampir could not solve to an extent, while Ervas was also supporting me with his healing spells from some meters away.

I quickly caught up to them and then decided to combine Sanguine Sword with Holy Light Beam, forming a technique which I shamelessly called Excalibur!

A blade of light and darkness emerged over my staff, and with a single swing of it, a powerful and immense beam of light and darkness impacted the swift bugs, slaughtering them on the spot!

BOOOM!!!

Ding!
