Chapter 57 Delirious Dungeon (2/3)
hahaha…"
Erix was trying his best not to get influenced, and he also quickly judged that this situation arose because they entered this jungle.
'What is this fragrance… is it the cause?'
"Hey, you two! Quick, we have to get out of this jungle!" Erix said as he grabbed their hands and flew up.
However, just as he crossed a tree, he crashed into an invisible barrier, and a force threw him on the ground.
'Shit!'
Rin and Isabella were also trying their best and had turned silent after Erix took them up to fly over the jungle instead of walking through it. Still, when he crashed into the barrier, and the three of them smacked on the ground, their fuse again short-circuited as they burst out laughing.
"Honey, you can't be serious! Hahaha…" Rin laughed while holding her stomach while squiring about. "It hurts…need to stop this…"
"E-Erix, we have to leave," Isabella stopped her laughter. Her face was full of sweat, and she was trying her best despite her vision changing between clear and blurry while everything looked wobbly.
Erix grabbed Isabella's hand and carried Rin on his shoulder before he dashed forward.
But his vision was also becoming weird as everything was bending while he was rushing through the jungle.
This caused him difficulty maneuvering around the trees and plants, and he shortly crashed into a tree.
"Fuck!"
Erix stood up and put Rin on his shoulder again before grabbing Isabella's hand.
"Wait. Put me down, Erix. I am fine. I am trying," Rin said, her body full of sweat and her eyes showing internal struggle.
On the other hand, Isabella's eyes couldn't remain open anymore as she started swaying. "I-I can't walk. Something's wrong with my mind."
"Erix, carry her," Rin said as she took a deep breath. "Let's get out."
Erix nodded as he put Isabella's arm around his neck before slightly bending down and pulling her up with a firm arm grip around her legs to carry her on his shoulder.
"If you can see the path clearly, then lead me because my mind is mostly fine except for everything bending in my vision, and my Aura Vision is also not working properly."
"I am having the same problem," Rin bit her lips and squinted her eyes, trying to stop the bending vision. "Let's not move quickly then. I'll stay front to see if we are not crashing into any tree."
They continued moving while resisting the strange effects of the forest.
But it was proving difficult. Ultimately, they were having problems walking and had to stop moving.
Erix looked at Rin's sweaty face, and her smell wafted into the nose, causing him arousal.
But he knew that it was this jungle's effect.
"Erix…" Rin's eyes turned slightly glossy as she approached Erix before pushing him onto the ground and sitting on him.
"What? Rin?! Hey, snap out!"
With a finger tap on her armor, she put her armor set in the inventory and appeared in her t-shirt and shorts before she removed her t-shirt.
"Rin!" Erix slapped her cheek. "We don't have time for this!"
"It sting…" Rin snapped out of the effects and entered a daze as she rubbed her cheeks.
Erix got up and put his hand behind her neck before pulling her face and kissing her with the highest intensity as a loud smooch echoed. "We don't have time for that, so bear with it for now."
Rin helplessly sighed and quickly wore back her T-shirt. "I am fine now. Sigh, this jungle is screwing with us."
After wearing her armor set, she stood up and took a breath. "Let's continue moving."
After some bumpy moments, they finally saw moonlight in the gaps between trees and plants, indicating they were close.
"There it is," Rin sped up.
When they exited the jungle and saw the foggy passage, Erix sighed in relief and sat down after putting Isabella on the ground.
"What kind of crazy dungeon is this?" Rin wiped the sweat off her face after sitting down. "It's messing with our heads."
"Maze of High Weed," Erix murmured. "It is really related to intoxication-type weed, but on a strange level."
"What happened?!"
Isabella's eyes opened as she quickly got up.
However, she soon understood the situation after not seeing trees around her and sighed in relief. "So, we got out of that jungle…"
"We have to leave this dungeon quickly," she stood up as the relief in her eyes was replaced by fear. "This is too strange."
Rin and Erix nodded as they got up. There was no time for rest.
The trio moved towards the North directional path. The fog cleared and showed a normal maze path.
But just as they walked a few steps, the ground slightly shook before a giant Weedling emerged from the ground.
It was four meters tall and looked like it could harm them, unlike those small Weedlings.
[Giant Weedling]
_Vitality: [4000/4000]
_Attack: 200
_Defence: 300
_Magic: 200
The first one to attack was Isabella as she used Flame Whip, but instead of how she Rin also lighting charged her body with 100 mana directly and dashed forward with Blade Eater in her hand.
normally uses it, the Flame Whip in her hand turned brighter with condensed flame bumps protruding on it.
She was trying to control the fire element of her flame whip to make changes and empower it, but how much she could control and affect would depend on her effort and breaking her limit.
As she started attacking the incoming giant Weedling with her Flame Whip, the bumps on the whip would explode for a bit more damage.
Rin also lighting charged her body with 100 mana directly and dashed forward with Blade Eater in her hand.
Erix didn't do much except for releasing a single Crimson Blood Flare by spending 50 mana because the monster was almost dead by then with quick and powerful attacks from Isabella and Rin.
Rin dealt a finishing blow with a slash of her Blade Eater.
But when its vitality hit zero, it didn't directly turn into motes but blasted and released a pollen-like substance that rained on them.
"Don't inhale!" Erix shouted before he closed his nose and mouth. He dashed toward Rin and Isabella before grabbing their hands and continuing towards the North passage before him.
He didn't know what that substance would do but didn't dare to inhale or let the other two inhale it!
