Era of Players: Death God-Chapter 269: On the Sixth Floor
As Lilith stepped onto the sixth floor, she was immediately struck by a familiar chill. The air was frigid, wrapping around her like an icy cloak. It was as if memories of Noah battling the giant snow wolves flooded her mind, and she felt a surge of determination course through her. She had heard the echoes of his fight; now it was her turn to face the same challenges.
The landscape before her was a vast, snow-covered expanse, with towering evergreens blanketed in white. The soft crunch of snow underfoot contrasted sharply with the memories of the fierce battle that had taken place here. Lilith tightened her grip on her sword, ready to confront the adversaries that awaited her.
As she ventured deeper into the snowy forest, the silence was punctuated only by the soft whisper of falling snow. It was eerily peaceful, but she knew better than to let her guard down. Suddenly, movement caught her eye. Shadows flitted between the trees, and a low growl reverberated through the air, sending a shiver down her spine. The giant snow wolves emerged, their white fur blending seamlessly with the landscape, but their piercing blue eyes glowed with hunger and cunning.
Lilith felt a rush of adrenaline as the wolves surrounded her, their growls echoing menacingly. She recalled the tactics Noah had employed, but she knew she had to find her own way to deal with them. The pack was large, but she was determined to take her time and clear the floor, not just for the sake of expediency, but to hone her skills and prove her strength.
"Alright, let's see what you've got," she said, her voice steady and unwavering. With a swift motion, she activated her Wind abilities, summoning a powerful gust that whipped through the trees. The wolves hesitated, momentarily taken aback by the sudden shift in the air.
Lilith took advantage of their confusion, launching herself at the nearest wolf with blinding speed. She slashed with her sword, the blade cutting through the air as she aimed for the creature's flank. The wolf yelped in surprise, but it quickly spun around, snapping its jaws just inches from her face. She ducked under the attack, using the momentum to roll and come up on her feet.
The pack rallied, and Lilith felt the pressure of their numbers. She knew she had to keep moving, to stay one step ahead of their coordinated attacks. As the wolves lunged at her, she summoned a wall of wind, deflecting the first few attackers. The barrier pushed them back, giving her a moment to breathe and reassess her strategy.
With a flick of her wrist, she called upon her Space element, creating a brief rift that allowed her to dodge the lunging wolves. She reappeared behind the nearest one, delivering a swift strike that sent it crashing into the snow. The creature howled in pain, but Lilith was already on the move, anticipating the next wave of attacks.
The pack began to coordinate their efforts, two wolves charging at her from opposite sides. Lilith focused her energy, channeling a powerful gust of wind to create a swirling vortex around her. The wind howled as she unleashed it, sending a shockwave that knocked the two wolves off balance. They stumbled back, giving her the opening she needed.
"Let's turn this up a notch!" she shouted, activating a concentrated burst of her Wind abilities. The air surged around her, forming sharp blades that sliced through the air toward the approaching wolves. The projectiles struck true, finding their marks and causing the wolves to yelp as they staggered back.
But the pack was relentless. They regrouped quickly, and Lilith could sense their growing frustration. She took a deep breath, centering herself as she prepared for the next wave of attacks. The wolves lunged again, and this time they moved in sync, attempting to overwhelm her with sheer numbers.
Lilith danced between them, her movements fluid and precise. She ducked and rolled, striking out with her sword when she found openings. Each slash was enhanced by the wind, creating a whistling sound as her blade cut through the air. She felt the adrenaline pumping through her veins, invigorating her as she fought.
One wolf managed to get close, its jaws snapping at her arm, but she sidestepped just in time, pivoting on her heel and countering with a swift kick that sent the creature sprawling. The others hesitated, their confidence wavering as they watched their packmate fall.
"Is that all you've got?" Lilith taunted, her voice steady and strong. She could feel the energy of the elements swirling around her, ready to be unleashed. Seeing the wolves falter, she decided to press her advantage.
With a powerful sweep of her sword, she summoned a gust of wind that surged forth, pushing the wolves back and creating distance between them. She took a moment to catch her breath, allowing the wind to swirl around her, enhancing her agility and strength.
"Let's finish this!" she declared, drawing upon her full power. Channeling both Wind and Space, she created a series of portals that opened around her, allowing her to strike from multiple angles. The wolves, caught off guard, struggled to anticipate her movements.
With each teleportation, she struck swiftly and decisively, her sword flashing as it found its targets. The wolves fell one by one, their growls turning to whimpers as they succumbed to her onslaught. The air was filled with the sounds of battle, but Lilith remained focused, her determination unwavering.
As the last wolf fell, she stood amidst the remnants of the fight, breathing heavily but victorious. The snow around her was stained crimson, a stark contrast to the pristine white landscape. She took a moment to compose herself, knowing that she had conquered this floor not just through brute strength, but with strategy and skill.
Although she wished to immediately chase after Noah, she was not a robot, a rest was must, therefore she decided to rest and satiate her hunger, she had being feeling hungry since a while.
