After defeating that Meat Golem we continued our trip through the dungeon, but I noticed a big difference from floor 41 to floor 50.

The difference was that all these floors were forest environments full of traps and poison, not only was the environment forest as all the Zombies and Skeletons on these floors were of the beast type, that is to say, they were more fierce and faster than the humanoid types.

Worst of all is that the forests on these floors were in a perpetual night, to make matters worse there were two floors that were full of fog that obstructed our vision and there was one floor where a torrential rain was continuously falling hindering not only my group of vision but also to continue on the path.

The monsters also ambushed or attacked in groups, it seemed that the Undead on these floors were not affected by the environment like us, we were at a disadvantage.

As things looked tough I left Kira to take care of the rear and started to lead the way using my abilities to see in the dark and detect nearby monsters avoiding the ambushes.

As the environment itself had become an obstacle for the group I told everyone that we were going to fight together from now on, there would be no more training and I told them to be alert to the surroundings.

The strangest thing was on floor 44 where birds began to appear Skeleton from the sky, I couldn't understand how those things could fly being just a pile of bones, but after Ivan pointed out the reason I understood, these Undead monsters had the same ability as Ivan's "Spectral Body", thanks to this ability they can use that greenish energy to create a body similar to living creatures, these birds used this ability to create transparent wings around their wings made of bone to achieve fly.

After understanding this I realized that it wasn't just the birds, even the Skeleton monsters on the ground where using this ability, that's why they were so fast and moved like living beasts, they were using this ability to recreate spectral muscles so they could move. more easily and naturally.

It seemed that this skill was quite versatile and useful for the Undead, but the beast-type Skeletons weren't all the problem, the beast-type Zombies had poison breath-type attacks just like the Basilisk we faced a few days ago, even though his attacks didn't have the same strength or range as that Basilisk was still uncomfortable.

I as well as many of my group had resistance to the poison we acquired in the Dungeon of the Great Serpent or other ways, but unfortunately, there were still two people who didn't have these abilities which were Irina and Freya, luckily that both Irina and Vanessa were able to heal that poison.

Even though we were starting to have some difficulty on these floors it was still nothing to worry about, we actually managed to take advantage of this hostile environment to improve our teamwork.

----------

After hours of fighting through strange and dark forests, we finally reached floor 50, the monster on that floor was a bone Kimera, it looked like it would be a complicated enemy to fight against in normal ways, so we decided to use Vanessa's Holy magic to defeat this monster.

As this monster is large and composed of bones from dozens or even hundreds of monsters, it would be difficult to find its core, it would be even more difficult to hit an attack on that core.

From the information you have this monster can use the bones it stores in its body to create Skeletons that it can control from a distance, in addition, this monster has magical and physical resistance which makes it very difficult to defeat normally, so let's leave this one monster with Vanessa.

But before facing this monster I tell everyone to rest for an hour in the safe room of swim 50, the Undead we faced wouldn't be a problem if they attacked head-on, but they always try to attack with ambushes or in a group which ended up mentally tiring the group for keeping their guard up until we get here.

While we're in the secure room I gather everyone for a chat.

"I know everyone is tired, the boss of this floor seems to be difficult to fight against, I also don't know how much damage Vanessa's holy magic can do to him, so if you prefer we can leave now and leave to face this boss of the walk tomorrow, what do you think?" (I)

"You don't need to worry about that, Vanessa will surely beat this boss easily, right Vanessa?" (Ivan)"Yes, one or two attacks will be enough to take care of that floor boss." (Vanessa)

"..." (I)

"You've never seen Holy magic, have you Father?" (Irina)

I nod in agreement.

"Holy Magic doesn't use mana, it uses holy power, so this monster's magic defense will be useless and because it's an Undead it will take ten times more damage than normal from an attack made with Holy energy." (Irina)

"That's right, if it weren't for Vanessa being here it would be more difficult to deal with this monster, but magic or attack skills that use the Light element would solve even if it took longer." (Irius)

"If everyone looks confident then I'll leave this monster in your hands Vanessa." (I)

"I'll do my best, Dad" (Vanessa)

​ Sigh

"..." (Freya)

"What was Freya?" (I)

"You have a very depressed face." (I)

"I don't think I'm being very useful in this dungeon, my arrows seem to not affect Undead, we're already at floor 50 and I haven't defeated any monsters with my arrows." (Freya)

"It may be true that your arrows can't defeat the monsters in this dungeon, but you've helped us a lot on these last floors." (I)

"Your arrows fend off monsters or hinder their attacks and movements, you're being useful in your own way, and don't worry about these unnecessary things." (I)

After cheering Freya up and taking a rest, everyone is ready to enter the small valley in the center of the forest on that floor where the boss of that floor is.

We go in trying not to make a noise and walk towards the place where my detection skill is pointing.

Soon we see the monster, it has a height of five meters and its body is totally white because it is made entirely of bones, at first glance, it looks like a white rhinoceros, but then it turns towards us, then it starts running in a big way. speed up to us making the ground shake with every step he takes.As he runs, the bones in his body move and rearrange, changing his appearance to a very large type of Tiger with claws, bone wings, and sharp teeth.

In the brief moment, he moves I notice transparent greenish energy covering his body, then I realize that this monster also has the spectral body ability, at that moment the monster stops running and uses its wings to fly towards us increasing its speed.

Just as I think the monster will reach us and I was ready to intercept it I notice a golden light on my side and I turn around, what I see is Vanessa with her staff pointed at the monster with the crystal heart at the end of the staff glowing with golden light and various magic circles around the staff's body.

"< Holy Column >" (Vanessa)

At this point, a golden circle appears under the monster and a golden light exits the circle at high speed going straight up to thirty meters high, the spell only lasts ten seconds before it shrinks and then disappears leaving just a pile of bones on the ground.

"..." (I)

Then a chest pops out of the ground in the middle of the valley and I realize that the monster I thought it would be troublesome to defeat was vanquished with a single attack, at this point, I finally understand the power of Holy energy.

"He looked strong, so I expended all my holy power on this mid-level spell." (Vanessa)

"It was amazing magic Vanessa, but please be careful, I was almost scared to death with this magic so close to me." (Ivan)

"Sorry Ivan." (Vanessa)

After the monster is defeated I collect all the bones and core from it, then head towards the chest with the others.

To make sure I use my detection skill to confirm that there isn't another monster disguised as a chest, then I ask Kira to check that there are no traps, which I seem to have, as soon as Kira disarms the trap I open the chest.

What was inside was a shield of bones, some global coins worth five gold coins, and a Grade B cleansing potion according to my Identification skill.

After getting everything we go to floor 51 and head back to the first floor before heading out of the tunnel towards the city.

"Rest well today, starting tomorrow there will be no more maps to guide us, we'll have to explore each floor to find the stairs." (I)

"This is going to be difficult, we're going to have to be very careful as the floors up to the boss are going to have a crazy number of Undead." (Diana)

"Not to mention that the Undead are getting stronger than they should be because of this miasma." (Irina)

"It's going to be really tough when we get to the top floor and have to face Grade A Undead empowered by miasma." (Kira)

"Even though they are stronger, we have the elemental advantage with some of us having an affinity for the light element, we also have someone with sacred power, don't forget that." (Érica)

"Plus the Dungeon monsters aren't the only ones that get stronger because of the miasma, Miss Erica and I are also getting stronger inside the Dungeon as well." (Ivan)

"You are right." (I)

"I think we are doing well, but don't forget that everything will be unknown going forward." (I)

"Yea!!!" (all)
