I Can Make Everything Level UP

Once again, the group fell for around two minutes before they could land. When they saw the floor below them, most of them gulped. They got lucky since they landed in the few parts of the ground that hadn't been overtaken by the lava, but around eighty percent of the floor had been. Still, Billy could have solved the problem with Telekinesis. Still, it was an excellent idea to let the others understand the danger of the situation. The extremely hot liquid was even forming bubbles around and expelling some droplets around when those exploded. The amount of heat and the sound caused was pretty powerful as well.

Since the temperature suddenly increased and they were having a hard time breathing, the group felt dizzy. Even Billy felt like that, and he increased his fire Resistance quite a bit by forging and absorbing the effects of magic items.

"This isn't good… we have to return," Meryl said.

That was the most reasonable thing that they could do, but that would be a massive waste. Moreover, Billy couldn't accept that since his wives and friends were still fighting the invaders, and the attacks increased with every passing day. With that in mind, he didn't have any other choice but to use Guardian's Aura on them. Little by little, they began to feel better, but Billy began to suffer a lot. He had to keep casting Regen to avoid suffering too much damage and passing out.

"... Are you sure about this?" Meryl asked.

"This is nothing," Billy replied.

The corridor that they were in was like one hundred meters tall and wide, so any creature could move in there, and soon one emerged from the lava to prove that such a guess was correct. Despite saying that, Billy used a lot of extra mana to level up his Fire and Heat Resistance. He didn't use all of it because he had to be prepared for fighting, and he did the right thing…

A monster that looked like the junction of reptiles, snakes, and even roosters. Just like Medusa and the cockatrice dragons, they can kill a person with just one glance. People often confuse the basilisk and the cockatrice. Yet, the difference between them is that the cockatrice has the head of a rooster, while the basilisk has a miter on its head with a shape of a crown on its chest. That was what Billy had read about them in this past life… No one said to him that they were like ten meters long.

At this point in time, Billy knew that defeating hundreds of them would be one hell of an ordeal. The monster was just that powerful and resilient… Moreover, with its eyes alone, the beast almost killed everyone with its eyes that fired a powerful beam of flames.

When the eyes of the monster began to flow, Billy emerged from an Earth wall instead of frying to use gravity. Still, the Concentrated beam of fire easily melted that. Still, the monster stopped when it didn't obtain the result that it wanted. After that, the beast opened its mouth, and a weird gray tornado flew toward Billy. He blocked it with Telekinesis, but even his mana began to petrify in front of that.

"Shouldn't you use your eyes to use that skill and your mouth to breathe fire? Stupid monster…" Billy muttered.

Maybe the monster understood the insult, or it just realized that Billy blocked the spells all day. Nevertheless, the beast charged toward him with a speed that didn't match his side… Even more so, considering that the monster was running. Instead of running away, Billy held his glaive firmly and then targetted the eye of the monster, but the large beast closed its eyelid to prevent the strike. Unfortunately, for the monster, the same technique doesn't work two times against Billy. He enhanced the Blade with Wind Manipulation, and then the weapon easily pierced it.

"Huuuuuuuuuurrrrrrhhhhhhhh!" The monster grunted in pain and was forced to stop the charge since the attack was making the glaive pierce its flesh even more deeply.

The monster tried to run away, but Billy used Light Spear. The skill caused critical damage, but the attack hadn't been enough to reach the brain of the beast… Such was the power of its defense. Still, Billy used the skill again and finished the job.

You received 2000 experience points.

The skill Wind Transformation received 1000 experience points.

The skill Light Spear received 1000 experience points.

…

The amount of experience earned increased again, but Billy couldn't defeat the beast as fast as before. He had to use Fierce Aura and Body Enhancement when he attacked the eye of the beast in order not to be blown away, after all.

"Can you imagine five of those spawning in a few floors?" Icarus asked. "That won't be something fun to experience."

"I am beginning to understand how come the maker stayed here for two years…" Lucyna said while furrowing her eyebrows.

"Yeah… This isn't a place someone can solo easily," Meryl nodded. "Even with the powers of the other five like us. It would be extremely hard to clear this place… It wouldn't surprise me if he had yet to clear this dungeon."

While the others were talking, Billy wondered which parts of the basilisk body he could use. Unfortunately, the monster was too big, and its body was way too weird… It had wings, but they were too small. Its scales were hard and big, so they could make for good armor, but that would hinder their movements…
