Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 485 - 458: Advancing 1

The next Alex group moved; after they decided on their next plan, they immediately departed.

Currently, the group was being surrounded by a group of giant scorpions standing over five meters tall.

Sakuya was the vanguard, Lilith the midguard, while Alex stood at the rear.

Using one of her Kendoʼs moves, she called [Mikiri]which means ”to see with cutting minuteness,” Sakuya dodged the giant scorpion attack and unleashed her own.

With just one attack, dozen slashes targeting the monsterʼs articulations were sent, using her sword intent, illusionary sword slashes were sent and passed through the monsterʼs legs, the four legs were cleanly cut off, and before the monster could emit a cry, Sakuya reverse gripped her katana and sent a thrust forward, a greenish sword tore through the air before piercing through the giant scorpion head leaving a gaping hole there, the monsterʼs body fell to the ground with a thud sound.

Without turning back, Sakuya thrust her katana back to block another scorpion pincer.

Kin!

A high pitched sound echoed as the hard shell and the katana clashed against each other, sparks flew, it was a temporary stalemate; however, soon the situation changed as Sakuyaʼs katana emitted a dark light that rapidly corroded the hard red shell, its durability was rapidly decreasing and the katana sharp edge passed through it, one of the giant scorpion pincers got cut off and danced in the sky.

Sakuya spun and executed a flying slash; the giant scorpion flew through the air before transforming into sashimi.

Meanwhile, Lilith didnʼt stay idle either, she needed something to vent her frustrations on, and these giant scorpionsʼ apparition couldnʼt be more timely. Lilith moved forward like a ghost; she passed through two giant scorpions; they werenʼt able to follow her movement before their bodies were cut into pieces and crumbled on the ground.

The giant scorpionsʼ Ranks werenʼt weak (Rank 8), just they were unlucky to have faced this group.

The remaining scorpions became scared; they decided to turn toward the only man who hadnʼt moved since the beginning; he stood still like a marionette, maybe it was because he was scared, maybe because he was the weakest.

The monsters with limited intelligence thought so as they jumped toward Alex; four giant scorpions attacked Alex from all sides, no they tried, before they could lunch an attack, Alexʼs hands moved faster than his shadow, accurately throwing four knives which pierced through the giant scorpionʼs head, their movement turned stiff before completely stopping, they died.

Sakuya and Lilith took care of the runaway scorpions before coming back.

ʼʼItʼs good that killing monsters now gives us XP, previously it wasnʼt the case,ʼʼ Sakuya commented.

ʼʼIndeed. Itʼs a good thing. When there is a reward, it motivates you more to put forth more energy. We need to hurry up as we donʼt know how many floors there are in this dungeon.ʼʼ Alex said while looking at his surrounding; currently the group was inside a forest, in the forest where the light of the sun hardly enters because of huge trees.

Sakuya and Lilith nodded their heads; they had noticed something; the more they progressed, the fewer restrictions their bodies had. Currently, their strength was comparable to Rank 9; the trio believes that soon they will get back their real strength.

They searched the forest for one hour before finally finding the exit; it was a shimmering black portal, the same as the one Alex took to join them. Without hesitation, the three passed through it and arrived in the middle of a desert. All that could be seen was sand and sand.

ʼʼTch! I hate hot temperatures.ʼʼ Sakuya complained as she could feel the sun trying to burn her skin tanning it; it didnʼt help as they were in the middle of the desert where the heat was at its highest.

As if unaffected, Alex ordered.

ʼʼLetʼs move.ʼʼ

Alex wasnʼt feeling the heat like others because Loki had body regulations technique; when it was too hot, the armor would emit a cooling sensation while heating up in a cold environment. Sakuya looked enviously at Alex who heat did no damage; then she remembered that she was a Wind user, chuckling. Sakuya created a small wind armor around her body to fend off the increasing heat.

Looking at Sakuya, who had finally noticed that she could fight against the heat, Alex let a chuckle escape from his mouth as he walked forward. Lilith didnʼt have any problem coping with the heat; like Alex, her new armor seemed to have the same function as Loki.

Suddenly, Alex ordered the group to stop; he furrowed his brows and readied his knives; just after he did this, the ground started shaking, and from the ground, a huge worm appeared, its mouth was filled with sharp, perfectly aligned teeth that would shred anybody that entered it.

Not wanting to waste time as he could feel two more vibrations following the first one; a crimson bullet blazed through the hot air and entered the sand wormʼs mouth before it could spit sand at him. The crimson bullet exploded inside the monsterʼs body, making it swell like Christmasʼs balloon before,

Boom!

The swelled body exploded in a bloody mess; everything from the head until almost the tail was destroyed. The other two Sand worms that thought they could miss out the chance of partaking in the feast froze at the sight of one of them dying so miserably.

Even though they were not smart, it doesnʼt mean they were idiots; they immediately tried to dive back into the sand to escape a sure death if they were to confront this group. However, how could it be so easy to escape Sakuya and Lilith, whose competitive selves have been ignited after Alexʼs one-shot kill?

The two girls simultaneously moved; Sakuya threw her katana toward the Sand worm on her left, green light mixed with dark light surrounding the katana as its tore through the air like a drill and pierced through the monsterʼs back, instantly killing it.

Meanwhile, Lilithʼs scythe enlarged, and she swung it; a huge illusionary dark scythe passed through the remaining Sand worm body, and it was perfectly cut in two.

Alex looked at the two and shook his head. Suddenly his expression changed.
