Chapter 10: INSIDE THE CAVE(Updated version)

"There is no need to report that something is approaching us very quickly," Mark responded.

Mark then pointed his finger towards one of the paths.

All the other teammates looked towards the direction pointed out by Mark but couldn't see anything.

At that moment, the ground started to shake at an astounding rate, as if it was being drilled by thousands of drill machines.

"Lily, make the ground around us stronger," Bhim commanded Lily first, as he didn't want them to get attacked from underneath the ground.

Lily quickly followed Bhim's order and chanted a spell that made 50 meters of their surrounding ground unbreakable for 20 minutes.

"Captain, the spell can only be cast for around 20 minutes," Lily informed Bhim so that they could be prepared if they had to fight more than that.

"It will be enough," Bhim responded.

"Mark, did you manage to find out what type of monster is attacking us?" Bhim asked Mark.

"I think it was the crawlers, but other than that, I have no idea," Mark said.

"It's fine, but how do we fight back if they are underneath the ground?" Jerry asked.

"I will handle it," Suzzy said.

"But how?" Jerry asked.

"I learned a skill specifically for this type of situation," Suzzy responded.

Suzzy then brought out a heavy hammer and started to circulate her mana into the hammer. As she continued to supply mana, lightning sparks started to appear around the hammer.

Suzzy then smashed the hammer on the ground with all her strength, but surprisingly, not even a single crack appeared on the ground, and all the lightning also spread on the surface.

Watching this, all the other team members had disappointed expressions on their faces.

"Just wait and watch," Suzzy said after seeing the disappointed expressions on her teammates' faces.

Just after Suzzy's words, all the trembling on the ground started to decrease, and eventually, it stopped completely.

"Be ready, guys, they are coming out," Mark informed his teammates.

"How did you do it, Suzzy?" Jason asked out of his curiosity as this was the first time he had seen this type of skill.

"It's a special skill called Hammer Bolt, in which the basic technique is to use an enchanted weapon that transforms mana into multiple lightning bolts.

When I smashed it into the ground, it spread all the lightning into the ground, which inflicts the surrounding area as per the amount of mana used.

If any living thing comes into contact with the lightning, it causes severe damage to them until they get out of the ground, as the attack stops its effect after getting above the surface," Suzzy replied to Jason.

"Oh, that's the thing. So how much time will the attack be in effect?" Jason asked.

"As per the amount of mana, I used in this attack, it will be around 30 to 40 minutes. After that, the effect of the attack starts to decrease," Suzzy replied.

"That will be enough for us to kill them. Mark, where will they be appearing from?" Bhim said after listening to the conversation between Suzzy and Jason.

Mark then showed them the area from where the crawlers would be appearing.

"Suzzy and I will be taking the front line. The rest of you will be taking care of the crawlers that will pass us," Bhim commanded his teammates.

Bhim and Suzzy took the front line while the rest maintained their previous position behind them. A few seconds later, cracks started appearing in the area pointed out by Mark, and the first crawler appeared in front of them. Then, like a chain reaction, crawlers started to emerge from the ground.

Despite this, Bhim commanded his team not to attack yet, as he didn't want the crawlers to run away in fear.

When the number of crawlers reached 50, Bhim decided it was time to attack; if more were let out, it would create chaos, as they were inside a cave and had limited fighting space.

Bhim and Suzzy started killing the crawlers one by one, and although the majority were of rank 1 and 2, their numbers did not decrease as more kept emerging from the ground.

Mark used his psychic power to collect the dead bodies and throw them aside, which cleared space for Bhim and Suzzy. After 20 minutes, the last crawler lay dead in front of them, and approximately 500 crawlers lay dead beside them.

They faced two rank-4 crawlers, the first they had encountered since arriving on the planet. Jason and the team took a few minutes of rest to recover their mana before continuing their journey.

One hour later, they reached the place where the last drone was destroyed, and from that point, they had to depend on themselves to search for the signal.

Until now, they had not noticed anything unusual and had only faced one monster attack after the first one, so their journey was relatively smooth.

Mark then took out a machine specifically given to them for this kind of situation, so they could track the signal and maintain the right path.

As they continued walking towards the direction of the signal, Lily suddenly stopped and started to look around her. "What happened, Lily?" Suzzy asked, noticing her behaviour.

"I think I feel something," Lily replied.

"You're just imagining things; if there was anything, Mark would have detected it," Suzzy replied.

Still, Lily had doubts in her mind and didn't want to take any risks, so she decided to report the matter to Bhim. After hearing what happened, Bhim asked Mark to thoroughly check their surroundings, but he didn't find anything, so they continued their journey.

After some time, Lily felt something again, but she wasn't able to determine what it was. She decided to ignore it, thinking it was some sort of hallucination. Finally, when Lily felt it for the third time, she confirmed that something was there and informed Bhim.

"Do you have any detection spells?" Bhim asked Lily.

"Yes, I do, but it can only detect around 50 meters," Lily replied.

"Use it," Bhim said.

Lily chanted a few words, and a spell cast around them uncovered the reason why she had been feeling odd. The spell revealed that 10 to 15 Forcesukers were around them, and what shocked them the most was that one of the Forcesukers was a rank 5.
