Redo! Last Chance for a Dying World!

Chapter 59: Earthquake

Geth decided to watch from the edge. A Barrier or Restoration from time to time was the most help he could be. Zolis wiped over half the room with her first Skill. She slammed her hammer down, causing flames to erupt.

What surprised Geth was the second effect. The ground began to shake. Strong ripples forced their way in a circle around her, causing the ground to warp and bend. Multiple Goblins fell to the ground as the flames overtook them.

The quaking didn't just stop at the first ripple. It continued, a wave every second for 5 seconds, each losing a bit of power until the last faded away. Zolis had sent a message through her Grimoire and Albus.

'She said that the Skill is called Earthquake. It does a set amount of damage based on her Strength, and the distance and number of ripples are based on her Intelligence.' Albus informed him.

He was quite impressed by the wide variety of Skills that the Mana could provide them. Geth thought about it as he cast Barrier behind the Goblins running from Filthy.

The sudden appearance of the barrier caused them to slam into it, making it easy for Filthy to pick them off. Geth could see that he'd already reached Level 25.

'I wonder how the other 3 are doing, they may actually reach Level 25 on their own as well. Our group should reach 26 or close to it by the time we meet up.' Geth glanced at the experience needed again.

100,000 experience per level meant that it would take half a million to reach Level 30. It also made him realize how much of a difference there was between himself and the Direwolves.

Originally, Geth had planned on staying 1 Major Level above his subordinates at all times. It looked as if he would have to set that idea to the side for now.

Zolis and Filthy quickly cleared the entire room. Close to 400 creatures had died in a matter of moments. Between her new class, levels, and Class appropriate item, Zolis had jumped up over 30 points in Strength.

The damage from Ring of Fire was much more than before, not including the Earthquake that she could stack with it. Of course, she only had so much Mana so she would have to be smart about using them.

Zolis ran up to Geth and spoke with him while Filthy was working on his Class change. "What do you think? It's a bit costly, but the effects were nice."

Geth nodded, "Yes if the quake hits first, it can cause enemies to struggle when avoiding the flame wall. Just make sure to be conservative with your Mana."

She smiled and stood on her tiptoes to kiss him, then ran off to start collecting all of the Mana Cores. Geth looked at the number of them, then began to fill his emptied Satchel with the weapons.

"I really need to upgrade our storage eventually." He sighed. 100 pounds wasn't a lot when it came to the more than one thousand weapons they had collected so far. "Bruce is going to have a lot of work ahead of him."

Another boon from this place was that he had enough weapons to arm everyone in both Dungeons. They had been very successful so far.

Even so, Geth was still concerned about the Boss. Its level would likely be nothing to scoff at. The six of them would have to do their best to take it down.

It didn't take long for them to finish collecting the materials. In the middle of it, the same blinding light shined from Filthy.

His Grimoire took on a deep green color with golden yellow trim. The stone in the middle was a translucent yellow.

When Filthy opened up the chest he'd gotten as a reward, a longbow could be seen sitting inside. The bow looked like it was made from the ashes of burnt wood. There were two separate strings on it, Geth really didn't know the difference.

Its height was close to 4', much shorter than a traditional longbow. For some reason, Geth didn't think that would affect its range of power.

Filthy hung the weapon on his back, there was a clip built onto his quiver that could be used for holding it. His old bow had been too crudely made to fit.

Geth stored the bow that he had made himself and the chest from the new weapon, then they started dumping equipment in the Gourmand room. This process of killing and shuttling weapons continued until all of the small rooms had been cleared.

As Geth had expected, he and Filthy had barely reached 26. Zolis was already around halfway to 27. The other three had all made it to 25 and selected their classes. It was time to check out the two larger tunnels.

While Filthy was scouting, Geth gathered information from the others to prepare for the upcoming battle. Hulk had chosen the Knight class, while Harris and Farris had both gone with Warrior.

Hulk had donned a very nice-looking chest plate, Farris was wearing a horned leather helmet, and Harris was carrying a long two-handed sword. They gave Geth the loot crates they had found in the caverns.

Since he still had time to wait, he opened the chests they had given him plus the ones found by his own group. Mostly, there were Skill cards. 7 more Sight cards, 2 of the Curse cards, and a Fireball card.

Geth chose to learn the Curse Skill, then stored the rest to add as Contribution Rewards later. The Curse Skill would reduce an enemy's highest Attribute at the cost of 5 Mana per second.

The downside was that Geth would have to concentrate on only that spell to use it. There weren't many situations for it, but he could use it to help one of his party members in the future.

Filthy finally made it back with a report. His face was dark, and Geth knew that his assumptions about the Boss must have been correct.
