Psychic Parasite

Chapter 441: Breezing Through Most as a Group

All fifteen of the students didn't speak much and silently marched towards the next dome. After all, a single thought echoed in their minds at the same time.

If the dome with the Spindle Bee contained a white circle that was the mission objective of one of the teams, it means they had reached their goal. And the moment they do so, they would complete their Graduation Ceremony and vanish from the Graduation Ceremony Battlefield.

That would render the other fourteen teams helpless. After all, they needed 15 teams to enter a dome. So, by lacking a team, they would be left stranded. Besides, the allure of finishing first was great.

Probably no one had the confidence to persevere through difficult fights one after another and risk their lives. After all, they had no guarantee they would survive a fight with a Tier 3 Frenzy Beast. Even though they would be pulled out once their injuries surpass a certain level, it would mean they failed their mission.

And, failing it after reaching the final phase and having even managed to defeat one Tier 3 Frenzy Beast, almost no one wished to fail at this point. So, the moment they came to know their mission objective was in the Spindle Bee's dome, they might probably rush to it immediately and finish their mission.

And, since doing that would mean betraying the others, no one did it. After all, it wasn't as if everything ended at the military academy. Once they graduate, they would have to team up on numerous occasions for real fights.

Moreover, if they betrayed the others here, it would become a permanent stain on their record. And there was a good chance their prospects might vane after this. So, none of the fifteen students tried to concentrate on the white circles in the Spindle Bee's dome.

They silently walked forth through the narrow path and arrived before another dome as Dalna Doppler took the chance to speak, "I know all of you must be thinking about the same. But fret not, we'll not think about them until we slay all the Tier 3 Frenzy Beasts. With our group, it should be possible. Let's just focus on our fight."

"That's for the best," Jyorta nodded as he glanced at the Tier 3 Spindle Bee hovering beside him, "I'll make this guy take the brunt of the fighting. Let's just buy time or make opportunities for its attacks to land on the target. That way, we will be able to conserve a lot of our energy."

The second dome they focused on was the One-Horned Rhino's. Among all the Tier 3 Frenzy Beasts, it was the easiest. It had detected their approach, gearing up for a charge as Dalna Doppler opened the door and entered, taking off to the air.

Everyone flew to the air as the Tier 3 Spindle Bee activated its Tier 3 Skill immediately, raining down almost one hundred spindles in a couple of seconds. It was a sea of carnage, the amount of force it unleashed was tremendous.

Not to mention a pyrrhic victory, they straight up would have been defeated by that attack if they had allowed it to activate its Tier 3 Skill back then. Jyorta and Ashten Coorg made eye contact, noticing the pale expressions of each other, feeling they had barely managed to survive from such a risk.

The Tier 3 Skill of the Spindle Bee was simple, as it caused the Spindle Bee to shot out a lot of spindles within a couple of seconds. Moreover, the spindles seemed imbued with a strange property.

Some of the spindles fully lodged themselves within the body of the One-Horned Rhino, causing a sweet scent to be released. It caused its eyes to turn red as it entered a state of uncontrollable frenzy, running around as it rammed into the wall of the dome.

It continued to do so as the Spindle Bee hoisted itself on its back, shooting spindles one after another on its head before eventually killing it. It made killing the One-Horned Rhino easy. Within a second after its death, its Frenzy Parasite drilled out as the Spindle Bee shot forth and slashed using its stinger, dicing it up into pieces before swallowing it up whole.

One of the Amplifiers landed on the ground as he fished out the One-Horned Rhino's Heart Crystal using the hole the Frenzy Parasite drilled out from. He then threw it to Jyorta who cleaned it up and placed it in the pouch he carried.

He planned to replenish the Spindle Bee's energy reserves later using it. The Amplifiers grunted as they dragged the body of the One-Horned Rhino over the sandy terrain, pulling it out of the dome as they dragged it to the next dome.

Upon opening the dome, they exerted all their strength, carrying the One-Horned Rhino carcass as they took off to the air, proceeded inside by ten metres, and dropped it. The One-Horned Rhino carcass dropped with a band, raising a large dust cloud on the muddy terrain.

This was the dome with the Life Leech, an opponent they never wished to fight against. After all, it was capable of sucking out their life force. They didn't wish to turn into an old man or woman at present.

So, all of them were okay with the decision to attack from afar. The Life Leech soon burrowed out of the ground as it pounced upon the One-Horned Rhino carcass, using the hole on its spine to enter its body.

But, that proved to be fatal as it painted the Spindle Bee the perfect target to attack. Followed by a spike in its aura, it activated its Tier 3 Skill once again, raining forth a barrage of spindles.

Suddenly, from within the One-Horned Rhino exited a white mist that quickly spread forth, intending to fill the dome with it.

"Everyone, retreat!" Jyorta shouted as all of them exited the dome and slammed its door shut. They just watched the white mist spread to all corners of the dome as a screaming Life Leech exited the One-Horned Rhino carcass.

After all, stuffed within it was a concentrated pool of Jyorta's corrosion and another pool of the venom secreted by the Spindle bee. Both combined were enough to severely injure the Life Leech.

Thankfully, they had escaped before the Life Leech's attack reached them.

"That white mist can suck in our health and replenish its lifeforce. We did good escaping from there." Dalna Doppler said as everyone nodded. They were privy to all the abilities the Frenzy Beasts possessed. They only were unable to guess which Skill they possessed.

But a single activation was all it took for them to determine it. They then left the Life Leech to struggle as its body became numb while its flesh melted.

Soon, they attacked another dome, this time a Hunter Clam. It was alone, and without the Lava Turtle, it had a lot of weakness. Everyone just disrupted its focus with their auras while the Spindle Bee finished it off easily.

Followed by it was the Recrow, a Tier 3 Frenzy Beast that was able to fly. It had high speed but shoddy defences. And their group specialised in agility and attacks. Without any losses, they killed it quickly.

The next was a Spiked Lizard as the dome they entered was pitch black. But having decided beforehand, all of them activated their aura personifications, putting the Spiked Lizard into confusion as it had sneaked behind them to pounce at them.

It was then bombarded by the spindles on its head and killed soon after. It launched its attack, only managing to land on the Battleship and the Web World. The aura personifications caused it to assume the two as the people that had injured it.

They then dragged the carcass of the Recrow and dumped it into the dome with the Ring Worm, attacking it every time it came out to eat the carcass. Though, a couple of Amplifiers vomited the moment they glanced at it.

Even Jyorta was pale-faced after seeing it just once. Despite his training, the Ring Worm was just too revolting. Thankfully, they didn't have to engage it head-on. They just hovered in the air and watched the Ring Worm tank damage every time it exited the ground to have a bite on the Recrow.

And, once the body of the Recrow was fully consumed, they used the Hunter Clam next. And unfortunately for it, by the time it could finish the Hunter Clam, it lay dead on the ground. The Ring Worms had lacking intelligence, even at Tier 4 levels, not to mention at Tier 3. So, they had actively made use of its lust towards Frenzy Beast carcasses to kill it. Not one among the group was nave and had experience in killing the same Frenzy Beast over and over in the Labyrinth of Frenzy.

That, and coupled with the fact they were fifteen attacking one Frenzy Beast, including having the Spindle Bee on their side, caused them to kill their foes one by one easily.  They then entered the dome with the Life Leech after the effect of its Tier 3 Skill had vanished, spamming attacks on it before managing to reap its life.

Jyorta replenished the energy reserves of all ten Frenzy Beasts under his control using the Heart Crystals he had saved up.

"7 done, 5 more to go." Jyorta frowned as he looked at Dalna Doppler, "Which one do you suggest we raid next? All of them would prove to be tough opponents now."

"There's the Steel Porcupine, Lava Turtle, Floating Spider, River Whale, and the Rigordile." George nodded as he spoke his thoughts, "I feel we should kill the Rigordile next."

"But, its defensive strength would cause us to expend too much energy." Esina retorted, "I feel we should face either the Steel Porcupine or the Lava Turtle next. We have enough defences to hide from their attacks."

"We would need to spend a lot of energy flying around to fight the Floating Spider. I suggest we first defeat it when we aren't exhausted yet." Another Amplifier said. With the opponents becoming tough, their opinions changed.
