CHAPTER 59: Into the Dragon's Pit(Part 3)

The visitors have entered themselves into a huge dilemma - a legion of skeletons has surrounded them and they have no way of escape. They are cornered on the sealed door that leads to the Lair itself. Soon, the skeletons attacked and the battle has begun.

Lucid: They may be too many, but there is no way in hell that I would give up!
Kirnale: Yeah... But the problem is they keep on coming back!
Lucid: Then we just have to keep on fighting!
Lilith: But still, their numbers are endless! And Kirnale is right!
Namiele: We have no other option. we have to fight. Even if it means our lives!

Soon, Namiele casted a strong elemental spike, but, although it destroyed some of the skeletons along it's path, was thrown off course and it hit a crystal that was connected to one of the nearby columns. Soon, the skeletons are moving towards the visitors but as the visitors are about to do their last stand, the skeletons are starting to act strangely...

Eriol: What's going on?!
Lilith: I dunno, but when Namiele's elemental spik hit that crystal... Those skeletons are affected.
Elysia: Of course! These skeletons keep on coming back because they're controlled by those crystals!
Lilith: You mean to say, they're just puppets?
Elysia: Exactly. The Worm dragon must've made this so that few people can actually attack the lair...
Lucid: hmm... Interesting.. But with these waves of skeletons, how could we ba able to approach those crystals?!
Kirnale: I have a plan... Maru, you and Moro be the distraction. All you guys need to do is to keep them skeletons away while the rest of us are getting rid of these crystals..
Maru: Aw...
Moro: Hey, we might not be able to beat them!
Kirnale: You don't need to beat them.. all you need to do is to just distract them long enough while we work them Crystals!
Maru: Alright.. We'll do it.
Kirnale: Good. I saw 6 Columns excluding the ones at the door. Each one of us will have to destroy those Crystals so that we can disable those skeletons. Then, we'll all go back to the door and destroy those 2 large Crystals on those columns...
Lucid: Good Plan. hopefully with this, we'll be able to destroy them skeletons once and for all.
Lilith: Hopefully speaking of course...
Namiele: Yeah.. I just hope this really works...
Lucid: It will.. Everyone, Charge!!!!

Soon, Maru and Moro started to distract the enemy skeletons while the other are trying their best to destroy those columns... At first, it was hard, since the crystals themselves are tough and is hard to break. But one by one, the crystals shattered and the skeletons are slowly being weakened. finally, the last crystal was shattered and the skeleton army was merely immobile. Then the visitors returned to the door.

Lucid: That's exhausting...
Namiele: Took a lot out of me..
Maru and Moro: Ohh.. we're both dizzy....
Elysia: Well, at least there are only 2 big crystals left...

Then suddenly the earth started to rumble. The ground was shaking. A Large beast was about to appear.

Lucid: this is not good...
Kirnale: What is it this time?!
Elysia: I hope that's not what I think it is...

Soon, everyone prepared to fight as the mysterious beast approaches...
