Attack and spells

Clasping his weapons in his hands, he spun a few times into the swamp waiting for a surprise attack. For a long time he remained alert "Is there really something in this swamp? I've been here for so long and I haven't been attacked, maybe the previous teams were just scared and didn't go into the waters" Nicola concluded.

He started digging the graves with his feet, revealing small wet black bones after so long submerged. This is a material of excellent quality for research in necromancy, the attributes absorbed by bones over time have made them a catalyst for death and shadows spells, a great material to build a magical equipment.

During the gathering Nicola carried more than enough in his space ring, wanting to take some bones for himself. When making magic weapons it would be essential to have suitable materials like this.

At the moment he was finishing collecting the bones, the large python attacks him from behind looking at his head. However, having never let his guard down fully, Nicola quickly turns around with the sword in his hand, blocking the snake's bite, while retrieving another dagger from his space ring and stabbing the side of the python, leaving a deep mark on his scales.

The large snake widens its eyes almost like a human in surprise, in its previous ambushes, no enemy was ever able to block its attack, let alone hurt its body. Then, with a malevolent look, the snake looks at Nico and hides again in the waters.

"No way! This snake is so close to a level 20 monster, the dagger left only a mark on the scales, it looks like I will have a conversation with the old mission wizard when I return"

At the same time Nicola cast some spells that he mastered studying in the library from the Six Rings Academy. Four spheres of light formed around him and spread in four different directions illuminating the murky water around him, it was the lanterns of light spell. He named them as the sentinels of light.

At the same time, the abundant dark element around them formed a layer of armor over Nicola's skin, it was not as resistant as his armor but it was an extra layer of protection and this could be used to erase his traces of the enviroment, like the smell of his body. He named it as the darkness veil;

'The odds are against me, the snake is in its natural habitat. I won't be able to defeat it here in the swamp, at least not now '
