Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 677 Battling the Monster Horde

Three days later, Vicente's party arrived at the location of the third secret outpost of the Cataclysm Order that he would pass through to gather resources.

But before entering the location, their party encountered a problem on the way. The area was teeming with monsters and negative creatures!

When they stopped not far from that area, the group saw that a large number of negative magical beings were very close to a certain cave in that area of canyons and mountains.

"I think we should head there," Rory said as he pointed to where some 4th-stage beings were positioned.

Vicente and the others looked at that spot, the entrance to a cave, where two Wendigos and three Night Harpies were positioned around the cave entrance.

Wendigos were ravenous creatures and notorious flesh-eaters. They possessed extremely gaunt bodies adorned with horns sprouting from their animalistic skulls. Large claws replaced their fingers, and their forms were entwined with twisted branches.

The Night Harpies resembled large black birds with glowing, blood-red human eyes. They were renowned for their malevolent nature. When a Night Harpy singled out a target, it would first drive its victims to despair before feasting upon them.

In addition to these formidable creatures inhabiting the vicinity, where the entrance to the order's secret altar was rumored to be, several other monsters and beasts roamed nearby.

Some engaged in combat with one another, while others remained vigilant, awaiting intruders to infringe upon their domains.

Even the strongest monsters on the continent would be affected by the phenomena common to The Seven-Day Tsunami. However, the stronger a magical being affected by this period was, the less irrational they would be.

They would still be stronger than before, and they would be angrier than in normal times. But they would at least be able to control themselves a little so that they would not always attack everything and everyone in their path.

That was different from the weaker ones who were completely controlled by their survival instincts and saw everyone around them as enemies to be slaughtered so as not to endanger their lives.

"Let's clear this area," Vicente commented to his group as he walked ahead of them, heading straight for where the five strongest monsters in the area were.

As soon as he made his way to the cave, the creatures in the surrounding area moved against him, attacking him with their bodies and throwing even rocks and branches at him.

Most of them only had physical strength. That was all they could do.

But since they were in a berserk state, these creatures could throw things and make them fly as fast as bullets from guns!

The first to move, however, was Vicente, not one of the 'normal' individuals in this group!

As at least 40 different creatures attacked Vicente, he didn't even look around, only concentrating on reaching the entrance to the order's altar.

His first pentagram glowed brightly, illuminating the surrounding area with its yellow essence. At the same time, minerals in the ground were transformed into high-purity metals that quickly came together to form weapons.

A second later, dozens of daggers erupted from the ground as if this was an area where several traps had been set for a long time.

Swooish!

In the blink of an eye, 35 creatures were hit by Vicente's attacks, falling one after the other from the fatal damage of such an attack.

Seeing this, Layla moved, instantly disappearing from the side of her group and then appearing on the back of an opponent, easily driving her arm through it, decapitating it.

A flaming avatar appeared behind Rory before the young man flew toward the enemies he would incinerate in that area.

Casey wasn't a warrior, but he could easily immobilize opponents. He looked at Sarah and motioned for her to finish off the enemies he would take down.

The third eye on Casey's forehead opened, and soon, his three pentagrams appeared in that eye before beams of colored light shot out at a group of 15 enemies in their path.

Onyx took flight and soon began to use his cultivation pressure to immobilize or even crush some of the enemies in his path.

At least a thousand magical beings were in this area, most of them at the 3rd stage, but a few at the 4th stage.

Even if this group's strength was far superior to that of the beings there, it would still take a few minutes for it to eliminate all of them.

But to do what they wanted to do, the group would have to cover an area the size of a neighborhood in a big city with blood and corpses!

Lina didn't lag behind and soon demonstrated the Seidel family's powerful bloodline skill.

Her power allowed her to sense things and even know what would happen. In a way, this was a supreme instinct through which she could avoid terrible blows to herself and launch attacks against opponents at the best times and angles, considering the subsequent movements of her targets.

When she moved against her first target in that area, she used her hands to connect her mana to her target before manipulating her mana inside that body, making it tremble.

Boom!

A few moments later, her first target exploded, one of the possibilities of her ability.

Lina regretted it as she splattered the creature's blood and brains all over the place, dirtying her beautiful hair in the process.

Then, she looked at her next target and acted differently, causing the body to stop moving.

The creature suddenly turned pale and lost much of its speed before falling hard to the ground.

While the group dealt with the weakest monsters in the area, Vicente faced the five strongest creatures that stood in his way of reaching the area's secret altar.

Seeing the Wendigos and Night Harpies, Vicente didn't think long before disappearing in front of them with his electromagnetic manipulation while using his ability to create magnetic cores.

He deliberately created these magnetic cores inside their bodies while causing the minerals underground in that area to produce metallic artifacts.

The five creatures realized that something was wrong and soon noticed that their bodies were suddenly functioning strangely while various metallic items from the surrounding area, such as the daggers Vicente had just created, were flying toward them.

But in addition to these items, much more metal would soon appear to chase them.

With magnetic cores in their bodies, they would be chased by metal as long as there were metal objects around them!
