Chapter 636 Fire Wyrm (1)
"This should last for two hours and I made sure to make the ice to get the air from inside and absorb it to last it for a while longer," Billy said."I am pretty sure that this isn't how ice works… and this place doesn't feel cold at all considering that it can withstand the heat outside," Icarus said. "Magic is truly amazing."
Since everyone had their own camp gear with them, they managed to relax for quite a while. Once again, Billy went to sleep after using the effects of his amulet and forcing himself to immediately sleep with Mind Control. Using his vehicles probably have created a better environment, and it wouldn't consume any mana, but that wasn't a problem with the atmosphere of that place. The heat was basically mana being expelled to annoy those who enter the dungeon after all. So, Magic Absorption could protect Billy and help him recover mana faster.
After two hours, the group looked a lot better than before. As expected, all that heat was really hard on the complexion. An arduous journey was waiting for them in the next sector, but at least they week fully rested. Still, Billy wondered if they would be able to stop and rest every few hours... things would only get harder as the deeper they go inside the dungeon, after all.
After leaving the shelter that Billy created, the group headed to the next floor. They had expected to see some changes, but they didn't expect to see some holes in the walls that were emitting powerful waves of steam now and then and making the atmosphere even hotter. Also, getting hit by those directly will probably be very unpleasant…
Once they stepped in on the sixth floor, a new monster appeared. It was a lot smaller, but it could fly. Weirdly enough, the creature emerged from the ceiling in a matter of seconds.

The creature has only around two meters long, and its body was only completely red and covered by some red scales that seemed a bit too thin to offer any real defense. Nevertheless, Billy and the others knew that defense wasn't the specialty of the monster, unlike the drakes. It was offense…
Billy charged at the monster using Flash and then swung his spear toward its head, but the beast flew in a motion to the side that had been so fast that everyone frowned… Billy wasn't supposed to miss that kind of attack since the movement had been too natural and instantaneous.
Nevertheless, the monster opened its mouth to attack, but Billy just used his Telekinesis to make the monster spin in the air, it made him lose some mana, but it was fine. Billy obtained enough time to recover and attack, but then he felt his body getting incredibly heavier…
"Gravity magic…" Billy muttered when he felt the weights on his legs crushing them.
The monster made Billy and everything that he was touching suddenly become one hundred times heavier. If it weren't for the weights, he would be able to move, but…
"You made me do this," Billy said and then pointed a finger toward the enemy.
A powerful lightning bolt appeared and hit the monster. Immediately, Billy felt his body returning to its normal weight. He was planning to kill the monster with that magic. Still, he didn't expect that the enemy would be unable to use magic while it was being electrocuted. In any case, Billy attacked the monster with Light Spear while the beast was defenseless.

"They are fast and can use gravity magic, huh…" Icarus said. "What a pain. I don't have good memories regarding that."
Billy told them to watch the first fight and learn as much as possible, and that was what the others did. Meryl probably will have an easy time against the Wyrms, but the others, not so much.
"Ah, I should try to see if the hearts of these guys can be useful," Billy said, and then he began to dismantle the body of the fallen enemy.
"Shouldn't we do that later?" Icarus asked.
"Like on the other floors where we will fight more enemies?'" Billy asked.
"Fair enough," Icarus said.
Billy had a hard time getting the scales since they were too attached to the body. In any case, Billy could feel a lot of magic power coming from it. While they didn't look that resilient, they probably could make some decent gear with good fire-resistant properties. Billy decided to stock and use them later…
After the scales, Billy opened the monster's body and took the heart. It was a lot smaller than that of the tyrants, but since it was raw and bloody, it didn't look that safe to eat.
"Who wants to take the first bite?" Billy asked, but no one replied. "Where is your sense of adventure? How pathetic…"
Billy made a stick using earth magic and then approached the heart to one of those fissures that fired steam now and then. Using that several times, he cooked the Wyrm's heart a lot faster than expected… Eventually, it was cooked, so Billy took a bite… it was pretty soft, but the taste wasn't that good. It was better than rations, though. In any case, he saw his health, mana, and stamina recovering, but the amount was small when compared to the tyrants.
