"Phew… Ahhh… I am tired…"
Benladann almost fell over her own butt, but Drake quickly caught her before she was to hurt herself. Ice Giants were very big, so when they fell, they would usually take more damage than other limber and smaller creatures such as humans, elves, and so on.
"Are you feeling okay?" asked Drake.
"Yeah, but I used a lot of power and… I-I still got a lot of Mana left though!" said Benladann.
"But you're too exhausted, you did an impressive first attack, now let the rest of us handle it." said Drake.
"But I wanna help…" sighed Benladann.
"You helped a lot already! Now go back to bed." Said Miranda.
Drake quickly brought Benladann to bed and left her resting alongside Belle, while he quickly returned back to the room with everybody else.
"Miranda, did you managed to connect?" asked Drake.
"Yep, it is done. Anything mold related becomes me in an instant, it is as if I was some sort of Hivemind… The moment the mold fell down there, I was able to immediately connect my mind to it, and I did what you told me to, using the corpses I found, I began to infect them… You know? This miasma thing even reinforced the mold down there, but its pretty unstable, its making the mind down there go a bit wild…" said Miranda.
Drake nodded pleasantly.
"Excellent, now, let's proceed with the other things. Miranda, command those corpses into aberrations and quickly attack the sect from the inside out. The rest of us, quickly begin to shoot down magic beams, don't let them breathe in peace!" said Drake.
Drake's mentality was as clear was water, he wanted things to go easy, so he was going to cheese his way through as much as possible, abusing his cheats and the amazing Fuyu and her cannons, he wanted to attack the entire sect territory with constant elemental beams, while Miranda would use her mold down there to infect any corpse and mutate them into aberrant monsters.
She was using these monsters and controlling them with amazing masterfulness, desiring to use them fight against the other surviving disciples of the sect, alongside any shadow beast that might emerge, or anything, really.
This way, they would be able to deal with them from a long-distance. He wanted to deal as much damage as possible in this way before moving on to do anything else, this was the most realistic approach for someone that wasn't into fighting to the death! If this were some sort of game, Drake would hesitate to abuse such cheats so much, thinking it could be unfair… but this was real life, meaning that the most important thing was always survival, no matter what! In such case, being scummy and abusing every possible way to win was always the best option.
"Then let me try out myself!" said Pekora, she quickly summoned her Beast Spirit, the Light and Thunder Spirit Aki, in the shape of a cute golden-colored rabbit with a timid personality.
The rabbit spirit was, of course, totally okay with this strategy, she could attack from a distance, which was a bliss!
Pekora infused her mana into the orb and so did Aki, the two loaded the entire sphere with nature, life, and light elements, twisting and combining together into bright light!
Meanwhile, the Phantom of Black looked concerned about the grim future, if they were to attack once more and another time constantly, they would be sure to lose and be annihilated before even attempting to do anything at all.
And what's worse, the corpses of all those that died in the first attack began to mutate, turning into aberrant, black-colored masses of distorted flesh, which began to crawl out of the swamp of miasma and started to attack the dark shadow sect disciples.
The dark shadow sect disciples had to desperately counterattack, many of them were not strong enough to even compare to these monsters, being easily overwhelmed and devoured alive, only to be added into the hivemind.
The power of these monstrous infected corpses was the same level of power as Miranda, which was comparable to Benladann, Rank 4! Although it could be said they were barely Rank 4 in power, any other sect member was being easily destroyed, and their magic attacks were not strong enough to kill them.
"Grr… Damn it! You damn Vampires, what are you waiting for?! Move your damn assess!" roared Black.
The Vampires quickly were brought to reality, as they swiftly began to command the Blood Shadow Beast to fight against the army of mold monsters, a war between aberrant creatures quickly started!
Meanwhile, the leader of the Vampires commanded the other three as they began to shape and create new Blood Servants in the form of bats, birds, and anything else that would fly.
"What are you doing?!" asked Black in surprise.
"Isn't it obvious? The problem is coming from the skies, we'll deal with it in the skies! We'll take half the army as well, command your troops to fight back, don't you have several trump cards? Use them if you want your pawns to survive." Said the Vampire leader, completely disrespecting the phantom of this ancient Immortal that could had once become a Venerable, as he flew atop a gigantic crow made of blood and darkness, the other three Vampires followed him from behind!
"Damn it! These bastards are really planning to leave me here!? Well, if they can really deal with those floating above the clouds, then that's for the best… Grr, to think I would have to use my powers already… Come out you two!" roared Black.
TRUUUUMMM!!!
Suddenly, the underground within the sect's territory began to tremble, as two enormous monsters surged from its depths, crushing the ground, and blasting it open!
BOOOOOMMM!!!
The debris flew everywhere, as the enormous dark beasts exuded a strong aura of darkness and shadows from within them…
An enormous snake covered in black scales emerged, and so did a gigantic spider possesing a powerful black exoskeleton with a metallic luster...
