Epic of Caterpillar

547 Fated Encounters: Nyzzet's Labyrinth Conquest 9/?: Great Lightning Mole Tyrant Emperor

.

.

Glancing at the Dungeon Boss Room door, I decided to read the guidebook regarding these bosses… But I did not find much.

It seems that explorations had only reached until halfway through the dungeon, and the party of Wagyu and Kekensha that I sent here were the first party to ever complete the dungeon in its entirety.

However, there was information about these floors, monsters, and bosses, but not as detailed as the previous ones, and for the lower floors, the information became dimmer. The information ended at floor 70, as this was a place that no one has ever come back from except Wagyu's party.

Of course, I could just ask Wagyu and Kekensha… but they are not really the brightest at recalling things and important information, neither anyone that accompanied them, so I will just analyze things on my own.

Going back to this floor's boss, their descriptions were not as detailed nor their powers, but there was still a great deal of interesting information gathered over the years by the humans and demi-humans that inhabited the Evergreen Town.

On floor 60, the three bosses were quite themed with the pseudo biome of this place.

The weakest of the three was the Giant Jewelry Hermit Crab King. It was described as a giant, red-colored crab with a shell made out of hardened stone, dirt, and countless colorful jewels', its claws are adapted to let it easily burrow in the ground and were as big a carriage each. It could move underground at fast speeds despite its big size and weight, and it is quite good at Earth Attribute Magic.

The second of the three Bosses is the Great Lightning Mole Tyrant Emperor. It was described as a giant mole of over ten meters tall, which had its nose of a blue color, which was capable of releasing powerful lightning currents alongside its long mustache hair. It was covered in golden fur and it possessed a crown made out of horns, which amplified its magical power as it was covered in magic stones. It was described to have large claws that could rip apart the dirt of the boss room with ease, sending adventurers flying through the air.

And the third of the three Bosses is the Giant Golden-Scaled Thunder Worm Tyrant Emperor. This Boss was described to be the strongest of the three, and many adventurers perished by confronting it. It had a long body of over thirty meters, and it was constantly diving underground, using the whole room as its domain. It has a large and gaping jaw filled with sharp fangs and it can unleash lightning through its entire body, which is covered in golden scales that make the manipulation of electricity easier.

They all seemed rather interesting to eat, so I energetically led the group into the dungeon boss room, opening the door and revealing the inside creature that was silently awaiting us.

"Oh, it's a giant mole?" asked Vudia.

"It has a crown!" said Ailine.

An over ten meters tall golem with golden fur, long claws, and a blue-colored nose stood there menacingly, its eyes flashing in a deep crimson light while unleashing a deadly and intimidating presence… but it wasn't much to my younglings, who desired to kill and eat it quickly.

"Growl!"

The mole jumped towards the ground of the cave, diving underground as if it were as easy as breathing. Earthquakes began to make the whole room tremble chaotically, as giant boulders began to fall to the ground, crushing the floor into pieces.

"Can we go, mama?" asked Nirah while waving her tail with enthusiasm.

"Mama will take care of this one first, but Nirah and her siblings can have fun with the respawning bosses, okay?" I said.

"Alright mama, but don't take too long!" said Belle at Nirah's side.

Boom!

The mole appeared in front of us, diving up from the underground while raising its claws, which he enhanced with a coating of golden-colored magic.

"Growl!"

Its body started to bulge and become muscular, doubling its size!

Its claws flashed towards us like golden meteors about to crash against us.

Flash!

"Divine Aura, Aegis"

Clash!

I quickly decided to create a quick barrier using my Divine Aura and Aegis converged together, the barrier resisted the mole's attack and even broke its claws into tiny pieces.

From the broken claws, which fell like pieces of glass, the mole shrieked in anger and pain as its paws started to bleed rapidly.

"You got quite a big… maybe you can be a challenge? Let us see if you can catch this hand. I'll handicap myself so you don't have to worry, there won't be any technique charged into this attack, so please don't disappoint me! Calamity Abyss Demon Arms!"

I raised my arms as I activated many skills at the same time while only chanting 'Calamity Abyss Demon Arms', my arms suddenly bulged and mutated into grotesque masses of flesh covered in scales, eyes, jaws, tentacles, fangs, and claws, extending dozens of meters and reaching the mole head-on.

Flash!

The arms formed into fists, as I decided to punch the mole once.

The fits penetrated the wind itself as they released thunderous sounds across the entire room, the mole glanced atop its head as it became paralyzed in fear.

BOOM!

The giant and fleshy arm fell upon the mole as I felt its bones cracking into pieces, its blood vessels bursting and its muscles exploding.

A single punch made the mole's entire body be flattened like a fleshy and bloody pancake over the ground.

It was dead.

"Ah… well, I guess it couldn't even take a punch?" I said, wondering if I had suddenly become like Saitama in some regards, well maybe the last boss will be able to take a bit more. I cannot lose hope…

Ding!

[Kireina] defeated the boss [Great Lightning Mole Tyrant Emperor]!]

[Kireina] completed several conditions]

[Great Overkill], [Great Overwhelm], [No Item Used], [Detect Weak Point], [Merciful Kill], [No Time to Retaliate], [Complete Annihilation], [Effortless Victory], [One Hit KO]

[Therefore, [Kireina] have been granted with corresponding prizes]

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Ancient Reward Loot Box (A)] x3

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Incredible EXP Elixir (900.000.000.000) (Mythical+++)] x1 (BONUS!)

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Lesser Legendary Relic of the Great Lightning Mole Tyrant Emperor] x1 (SECRET BONUS!)

[Kireina] acquired the [Blessing of the Great Lightning Mole Tyrant Emperor] Skill!]

Acquiring the blessing of a monster so weak compared to me is baffling… but that is how the System works… though these blessings are very weak compared to a god, even Living Deities. And can be considered something similar to a passive skill with a few bonuses.

For example, this blessing seems to increase my capabilities while being underground, while also giving me the ability to easily handle Earth Attribute Monsters, summon them or befriend them, it may also increase the speed and defense growth by a small margin.

After killing the mole my children ran towards me while glancing at me with eyes wide open in astonishment.

"Wow! I want to be like you, mama!" said Nirah.

"Killing a Boss so big with one hit, that was way too awesome!" said Belle.

"Rawr! Mama!" said Marduk.

"Gao! Gao!" said Nammu.

"Nishiii!" said Nanshe.

"To be expected from our mother!" said the pink-feathered harpy baby, Ocypyne.

"When do you think that we'll be able to be as strong as you, mama?" asked the green-feathered harpy, Nyphenne.

"Mommy I will surpass you!" proclaimed the yellow-feathered harpy baby, Solyth.

"I wanna eat the mole, can I?" asked the orange and brown-feathered harpy baby, Nepharia.

"Chirp… That was cool!" said the black-feathered harpy baby, Caellaeno.

"Let's fuse together to beat the next boss!" said the purple-feathered harpy baby, Dereo.

"Let's try to kill it in one hit like mama!" said the scarlet-feathered harpy baby, Uryphe.

I quickly shapeshifted my arms back to normal as I was covered in the younglings jumping over me in fascination.

"You can eat, Nepharia, but let me cook it first, okay my dear?" I asked.

"Okay, mama! I love you!" said Nepharia while rubbing her brown and orange feathers in my face.

This is way more than I can take.

"Mommy I also want your cooking!"

"I am hungry!"

"We just ate but I am hungry again!"

"Growing up consumes a lot of energy!"

"I want mommy's cooking!"

"No, I want it more!"

"When will the boss respawn?"

"It is always after a few hours!"

There were so many of them that it was always small chaos when they began to chit chat.

I somehow freed myself from them as I gathered with my wives and grabbed on the flattened corpse of the giant gold-furred mole.

I butchered it with the help of my slimes and then began to cut it into pieces with my nails, bones and other innards were included, but it was not like any of us minded, as we all could eat bones without any issue, and most of my children ate animals whole, to begin with.

Two simple preparations were made so it could be done quickly, half of the mole was cut into chunks, coated with batter, and then deep-fried (with my grease oil), while the other was added into a hotpot alongside many of the delicious walking mushrooms we found in this biome, alongside other seasonings and the meat of some monsters such as Jewel Beasts.

After half an hour of intense cooking, it was done!

We devoured everything in the spawn of another half an hour because it was exceedingly delicious.

For some reason mole-type monsters were quite rare, and we had never tasted one that was a Boss monster before, it was truly a different flavor altogether, and it reminded us of other mammals such as rodent meat, but it also had the intense and delicious flavor of pork due to the grease it had, and also the elasticity of feline meat.

The fried chunks covered in batter ended more delicious than we expected, and the oil I just created using the grease I can now mass produce, ended with an aromatic scent that enhanced the flavors.

After half an hour of eating, the new boss spawned, this time being the giant crab, which was taken care of by the Harpy Siblings who wanted to fight the most after seeing me one-hit KO the mole.

They fused while flying in the air, each one became a light of their respective colors and then converted into a brighter light in the sky, long wings extended outside of this bright light as their fusion once again showed up.

"Let's try to do it like mommy!" it said, as it gathered all the attributes auras and divine energy it had into its fist, creating a giant gauntlet that they used to punch to death the hermit crab in a similar fashion to me with the mole.

BOOM!

The Hermit Crab could not take their combined attack which contained Divine Energy, its hard shell was destroyed into pieces and its exoskeleton shattered, revealing all the innards inside.

"We really did it! We beat it in one hit!" celebrated the harpy siblings.

"Chupiii! Well done my babies! Mommy is very proud of you! …I think all of you had already surpassed me in strength, chupiii…" said Nephiana.

While still twitching in the ground with barely any life (as it still survived), I took out a giant pot from my Item Box, poured hot water inside, and then boiled the giant crab, while I ate the shell which was mostly dirt and many magic jewels and stones.

After ten minutes, we had another feast, this time we eat the giant hermit crab delicious meat, its shell was already all cracked, so it was quite easy to open it and reveal the treasure inside.

The tender white meat was flavorful and juicy, although not as delicious as Kaggoth's, because it was a boss monster, it was unbelievably delicious, nonetheless.

Not much afterward the Worm Boss appeared and this one was capable of taking the fused harpy siblings hits due to its sheer size and mass, but after they received the help from their siblings, it became an easy task.

The fused harpy siblings worked mostly as a tank and as a front liner with Marduk, Nammu, and Nanshe, while Nirah and Vudia remained aside while firing their magic attacks or weapon projectiles. Nirah's poison once again helped a lot in making the boss weakened for everyone to take advantage of.

We didn't even realize, and we were already eating the worm's meat, which was a combination between pork taste and shellfish, it was something else entirely, and it had many scales that I also made sure to eat.
