Chapter 879
We were all experienced with dungeons, and had even passed through levels where the entire thing occurred under water. Thus, reaching a place under a lake wasn’t too difficult. Carefully, Celeste was able to create an air bubble, and the group of us just walked down into the lake. If push came to shove, we were in a safer condition than even that previous dungeon, because we could just float to the surface if things became a problem.
That was what I thought, but after about thirty minutes of stomping around on the bottom of the lake, I finally found the door to the safe room. It would be better to call it a hatch. I looked down at the bubbling water sitting in a circular hatch.
“Okay… Celeste, can you?”
“Mm… I’ll do my best!”
She began to pull the water out of the hatch. Slowly, the water came out and merged with the water above us. She continued to do it until the water seemed to have been emptied in the room below us. I casted Light, not even thinking about Calypso potentially spying on us. It only worked one way anyway, so hopefully she wouldn’t notice. Looking down into the hole, I let out a sigh.
“Yeah, this is it.”
“Really?” Shao said, breathing slightly hard.
Celeste hadn’t shrunk the space we were in. Instead, she had expanded it to include the entire safe room. In other words, the air we had left was getting a bit thin.
“What do we do now?” Lydia asked.
I jumped right in, causing the girls to cry out. Celeste quickly flew after just in case. I landed hard on the ground, splashing some of the remaining water.
“Come on, everyone in!” I called out. “Bring the air, then close the hatch.”
The rest of the girls jumped in one at a time until we were all in the safe room. Terra flicked her fingers, and a large covering rolled over, blocking the water at the entrance. With the air bubble now the same size as the safe room, the air was thicker once again. The pressure of the lake pushed down on the hatch cover, and none of the water seemed to leak through. If it did, I had confidence Terra could fix it with ease.
“An underwater safe room.” Miki sighed in disbelief as she looked around the wet room.
“It’s not just the safe room that is underwater. I sighed, pointing at another opened hatch on the other side of the room with water.
The water underneath was completely devoid of light, but I had no doubt if we swam through it, we’d end up in a giant boss room.
“An underwater boss.” Lydia breathed out.
“How are we supposed to fight that?” Salicia complained. “How did previous Bandits fight that?”
“You’re one to talk!” Miki shot back.
“You’re you again?” I asked.
“Hmm?” She cocked her head like she didn’t know what I was talking about.
“Nevermind. Hopefully, we surface again after this boss. It won’t pop until the hatch is sealed. Let’s try to get some sleep.” I said as I registered at the kiosk. “We’ll fight this boss in the morning, and we’ll win.”
