Milkers in the Dungeon Chapter 18 (Patreon)
Content
Our dungeon delving adventure went well enough besides seeing a weird group of Barbarians, the male equivalent of Amazon, carrying an oiled up and stripped member of Freya's familia deeper into the dungeon...
That is what I would love to say.
As a loud rumble rang out as we were leaving the Pantry of the eighth floor and then from beyond that rumble came the roars.
Roars that did NOT come from Silverbacks and monsters of the lower levels. "Those roars... Do they sound like the mooing of an angry bull to you guys?" Fillia said helplessly as we were in the main large tunnel leading from the eighth floor to the ninth. And most importantly, near the stairs themselves to the ninth floor.
"That is the sounds of a horde of Minotaurs running towards us indeed." I said dryly before I took a deep breath, and with a wave of my hand, I created a large tangle of razor-sharp copper wires that quickly filled the staircase leading down to the ninth floor.
I popped my neck, and then I said helplessly. "Somehow, a horde of minotaurs got pushed into a stampede on the higher floors. We can't outrun them, we just got to hold them on the stairs where they can't charge us as easily."
"Jake please make a platform so I can get on and shoot over the metal mess you made!" Ganyu demanded and I nodded and made a platform of copper to lift her up off the ground, though I could feel my Soma draining a good bit at this point.
As I had been using my copper conjuration ability a good bit with how versatile it was.
So I needed to suck on a titty to get my Soma energy back soon.
I turned back to the staircase as Shenhe stood just behind me with Fillia and Xianyun standing behind us as well.
"I will hold the line initially with my fire and ice magic. Then if there is too much, I will use my sword and we shall see what happens." I said helplessly as I hefted Stygius, which hummed as it sensed the coming blood to be spilt.
Before I could say anything, the stomps of heaving cloven feet on stone rang out in a deafening song of as what could only be dozens, if not more, Minotaur rushed up the stairs.
But I left close to twenty feet of twisted and tangling razor wire that caught on the feet and bodies of the minotaurs, which slowed their approach.
And with a loud snap, I saw one of Ganyu's arrows nail a minotaur's large, beastly head, and its head snapped back, and it fell as her arrow clearly broke into it's skull and entered its brain.
'Fucking Loki Familia.' I thought as I realized that I was getting caught on 'canon' now, as I also knew the Loki Familia were busy lately for the last couple of months with their expedition.
But with a hum from my magic staff, I summoned a dozen magic swords that floated in the air next to me for but a moment before shooting forward with a shriek of displaced air before slamming into the frontal minotaurs.
'The minotaur can only rush up two thick, maybe three.' I also noticed that the large bull men didn't leave much room in their chaotic rushing run to properly move up in three or possibly four minotaur-wide lanes.
I swung my sword forward and the minotaurs at the front that stomped over the minotaurs I had killed or crippled with my cojured swords were met with a wave of burning fire that quickly carbonized their flesh and burnt away their thick pelts.
To say nothing of quickly blinding them as well as burning them on the inside as they inhaled to scream in agony.
Those minotaurs fell only to be trampled by more... And seeing the thick line of a hundred minotaurs if not more, behind them as I jumped onto Ganyu's little platform.
I had an evil idea.
I took a deep breath and I pulled in all the soma energy I had left to form a large sloped copper block that was longer than the huge stairs that led between floors.
"Shenhe, help me push this!" I roared as, I pushed not only with my body but my own copper control power and remaining mana to push the massive block down the stairs.
Shenhe, understanding my actions, ran forward and drop-kicked the bloc,k turning that drop kick into a back flip to land perfectly and then slam her shoulder into the large block as we pushed the block down the flights of stairs.
Then I watched... I watched as every cartoon I wasted my time with in my past life proved it's value. As the three-ton massive copper slab became the perfect example of what actually happened when an overwhelmingly heavy object had a heavily angled slope.
And a lot of very fleshy bodies in front of that very heavy moving object.
Minotaurs were strong... The Guild advised that before you even tangle with one of them. You either be in a party or be a lvl 2 yourself to begin with before fighting them on your own.
As they were on average some seven to eight feet tall and very physically strong to say nothing of sometimes even having landform weapons that gave them an even greater reach advantage on adventurers.
But... They were nowhere near strong enough to stop a three-ton, solid spike of copper that was heading towards them!
The roars of the minotaurs turned into screams of agony as the block, although not as wide as the dungeon staircase itself. It still took up most of the room so they couldn't hold themselves against the walls to avoid it.
No, the block after picking up some speed. Began 'surfing' over the minotaurs in a grizzly scene of carnage as the multi ton block crushed the minotaurs beneath it. Before with a loud booming noise it slammed into the bottom of the staircase and partially blocked the staircase leading up from the ninth floor.
I felt Ganyu next to me give a slight squeeze before she whispered into my ear so the others couldn't hear. "I know Jake... You will need more Soma to make more such attacks. I will come to you in the baths when we get home."
