Chapter 32: Chapter32-Fierce Battle
Not only the spiders, but even the corpses in the corridor were stirred, struggling to rise one after another.
Seeing the monsters surrounding everyone, Caitlin smiled and said, "Glyn, I'm afraid you can't protect those adorable students by yourself this time."
"Fuck!"
Glyn cursed under his breath, sweeping his gaze over the numerous monsters before sighing resignedly, "I guess I'll have to rely on you guys to step in. After this, I am content with just forty percent of the loot!"
"Very well."
At her words, Caitlin waved her hand, and a group of servants immediately formed a protective barrier around Abby and others.
Even though they were so-called geniuses, harboring A-level awakened individuals in their group, and Abby, in particular, grasping an S-level talent, they were still immature.
Under the substantial level suppression, no matter how formidable their professions were, they stood no chance against the monsters.
What about Howard?
He was purely an exception!
Despite Howard's lower level, he was equipped with several pieces of Platinum, not to mention Epic and Legendary equipment, ensuring his attributes were in no way inferior to a level 40 awakened.
Coupled with the immense boost from his S-level skill, he had the ability to breach the defenses of higher-level monsters.
Even so, surpassing levels to kill those monsters required a significant amount of time for Howard!
As Caitlin's subordinates spread out, the swarm of spider monsters initiated their attack, ejecting strands of white silk from their mouths which stretched out like ropes towards the group.
"Heavy spirits of the earth, heed the prayers of a devoted follower, become a wall that repels all foes! Quad Earth Wall!"
A chant resounded as a magus behind Caitlin waved a wand.
The next moment, a brownish-yellow glow blossomed, and a peculiar force materialized into four walls composed entirely of earth elements, safeguarding Abby and many awakened individuals within.
Thud, thud, thud—
When the white silk expelled by the spiders made contact with the earth wall, crisp sounds echoed immediately, followed by the emergence of a bizarre corrosive force.
Smoke arose from the wall as the earth elements began to erode, displaying the relentless assault of the spider monsters on the protective barrier.
Realizing this, the magus couldn't help but change his complexion, exclaiming, "These spiders possess corrosive elemental abilities; my Quad Earth Wall won't hold for long."
"No worries, just hold it for 10 seconds," Glyn assured as he took a deep breath.
He then brought his hands together, and a lightning radiance immediately rippled from within him, enveloping him in a display of absolute majesty.
With roaring thunder incessantly ringing in the ears, Glyn moved his lips slightly, directing the circulating lightning in a rhythmic pattern.
"Lightning that illuminates the world, unfurl your majesty and dispel all the darkness before you!"
"Thunder Shock!"
As Glyn chanted the spell, the numerous tendrils of lightning surrounding him burst forth aggressively.
Shooting past the Quad Earth Wall, they transformed into blade-like figures, instantaneously striking the silk-spewing spiders.
In an instant, the corridor resounded with thunderous roars as the silver-white lightning fully bloomed, filling the entire space.
The sight forced Howard and others to involuntarily avert their eyes, with the blinding radiance prompting them to shut their eyes.
The spiders were sent flying by the lightning, their skins turning pitch-black while emanating a burnt smell that pervaded the nostrils of many awakened.
However, after executing the skill, Glyn entered a weakened state, kneeling on one knee unable to move, and panting heavily. "Caitlin, I can only hold them for about five seconds, you need to act quickly!" he urged.
Hearing this, Howard couldn't help but cast a curious glance at Caitlin, wondering about the extent of this noble lady's abilities.
Seemingly sensing Howard's gaze, a subtle smile hooked at the corners of Caitlin's mouth as she drew a treasured sword that had been hanging at her waist.
As the blade left its sheath, Caitlin's demeanor transformed.
A surge of formidable wind emanated from her, resonating with a whooshing sound that caused her long hair to flutter dramatically.
Witnessing this scene, the male students in the elite team all widened their eyes, fixating on Caitlin unblinkingly.
Already beautiful, with an extraordinarily proud figure, Caitlin became even more enchanting as she manifested her skill.
The vigorous wind swirling around her and her heroic bearing instantly captured all the male gazes.
"Blade of the Gale!"
Caitlin didn't emulate the magus, who recited a litany of incantations before unleashing his power.
In a blink, her figure vanished, and by the time she appeared again, she was already before a spider.
Before the spider could mount an attack, the sharp blade had already severed its head.
With the emergence of crimson damage numbers, Caitlin's figure rushed to confront another spider.
In a mere span of three seconds, she executed seven blinks, decapitating several spiders one after another!
"Hiss!"
Everyone was utterly stunned, their gazes upon Caitlin filled with disbelief.
Even Howard was taken aback... he hadn't expected her to wield such formidable strength.
She possessed not only speed but also impressive attack power.
The collaboration between Caitlin and Glyn incredibly eradicated the besieging spiders in a flash.
In the corridor, only the resurrecting Death Experimenters remained.
Having initiated her attack, Caitlin didn't hold back.
At her command, dozens of servants charged towards the Death Experimenters.
Holding her sword, she sprinted forward, a determined warrior in the heat of the battle.
As she neared a Death Experimenter, Caitlin spun and thrust her sword upward.
Instantaneously, a silver-white wind swirl manifested on the blade, blowing several Death Experimenters into the air.
The wind blade swept across their bodies, tearing flesh from bone with merciless precision.
At that moment, the servants caught up, assisting Caitlin in dealing the final blows.
They brutally battered any Death Experimenter still showing signs of life, aiming for their heads with relentless fury.
All of them had reached around LV40, with some servants even being the guards of the mayor of Saint City, boasting levels as high as LV60!
This was where Caitlin's confidence stemmed from in daring to enter these ruins; even if Howard couldn't handle the extraplanar creature, she had faith that she could emerge unscathed.
However, the sheer number of Death Experimenters was overwhelming, and to add to this, eerie vines began to squirm as if endowed with life in the passage.
Spiders, centipedes, and other monsters kept multiplying, and even mutated forms started to appear.
Among them was a corpse whose upper body abruptly split open, its bones splaying out like spider legs, supporting it on the ground.
This mutated monster had attributes higher than the usual ones, causing Caitlin to finally meet resistance, slowing her momentum.
Yet Caitlin resembled a war deity, her silver blade moving with extreme speed, creating afterimages in its wake.
She was incredibly agile, continuously weaving through the swarm of monsters, akin to a beautiful butterfly frolicking amidst flowers.
This sight immediately captivated countless male students, elevating Caitlin to the status of a goddess in their eyes!
