Chapter 405 Fire (4)
In the end, it took a full week for them to wipe out hundreds of thousands of monsters and make their aura decrease in power to the point where everyone could dash toward the entrance of the dungeon without getting burned in the process. Fortunately, when only fifty thousand of them were alive to protect the entrance, Billy left that in the hands of the students, soldiers, and adventurers since he knew that things wouldn't end that easily. Something else was waiting for them inside the dungeon. Besides, more fire golems were leaving the place every five seconds. So, it was time to split the work in order to save time. Besides, Billy didn't have to solve everything by himself.
"Is it fine to let things end like this?" Kate asked.
"Those guys need the experience of finishing the horde by themselves and the people from this state want to do at least this much," Billy explained. "Both of them know that things inside the dungeon will be handed to us, so this is necessary."

While the others were fighting, Billy decided to check his status, and upon realizing that he had too many skill points, he decided to check how the shop had been updated. He was pretty sure that better skills could be obtained by using four hundred skill points, but the five hundred ones should be even better, and he was right.
On the list of skills of four hundred skill points, Billy could learn Tame, Shapeshifting, and skills like elemental immunity. The elemental Immunity had a really exaggerated name since they didn't grant immunity. Still, they granted ten times more Resistance than the basic elemental defensive skills, speaking of which, Billy forgot time and time again how he should learn the basic ones. Still, he had time to do so.
As for the five hundred skill points ones, Billy was expecting to find Teleport or the Shadow Clone technique, but he didn't find either. That was herring worrisome… With skill points worth of one hundred levels, he could learn how to make Shadow clones… How much will he need? In any case, he could learn skills like Illusion Manipulation, Mana Shield, and Purification. They were pretty good since they could make the target see what he wanted, block physical and magic attacks at the cost of mana, and purify all kinds of negative status. Still, Billy wanted to make shadow clones. He was being unreasonable, but he was that kind of guy.
"I guess I should wait for a while longer before I use those skill points…" Billy thought.
"It seems things are going well with the extermination of the fire Golems… Sarah is also finally coming here," Alexander said.

"Good work, you seem a bit tired, though," Kate said. "Should we let you rest or delay the last attack?"
"No, it is fine," Sarah said. "I can join the final push. I am more tired because I had to listen to the complaints of some high ranked soldiers a lot and I had a hard time holding myself back from attacking them."
"I thought that you were the calmest of us all, I guess they really pushed their luck…" Kate said.
Billy almost opened his mouth and said that Sarah wasn't like that the first time they met. Still, he avoided that in order to prevent some bad memories from returning. Some things are better left buried in the past… Regardless, after two hours, the enemies were defeated, and the weather in the area returned to normal. However, everything around the group still looked like a lifeless desert of rocks. It was pretty similar to the area the elementalists once lived in. To think that the monsters could alternate such a green area in just a month… if they had two or three months, they probably could create something as big as the Sahara desert.
"Tell your appreciates to take turns guarding the area, each turn shouldn't last more than eight hours," Billy said. "We don't know when we will return, but they shouldn't work for too long, even if monsters won't come out for as long as we are there."
Billy wondered if he should also tell them to keep their eyes open to the soldiers and adventurers of Riormi state. However, he gave up in the end since their students came from many states, and some were from there as well. Billy didn't want to believe that the commanders would do something underhanded in front of so many witnesses. Still, it was better to be safe than sorry.
The group approached the entrance of the dungeon, and they frowned when they saw a massive spiral path that went downward. The heat coming from the interior of the dungeon was also pretty insane.
"Have we heard of a dungeon entrance that looked like this?" Kate asked.
