Chapitre 76: White Particles
When the group passed through the ground they arrived into another dimension. Just like Tria had experienced before, it was an ice cave, except this time around there were many white particles floating in the air, filling up the entire cave. The particles did not touch the ground, they were slowly moving around and they bounced back upon touching them.
"What are those?" asked Tria looking around," these are definitely not snowflakes." She was enchanted before when she had woken up Hoth, however this time there were no effects on her.
"No, these are particles of my memories....well they are my memories. As a countermeasure, I designed them to look like this in case anyone could enter here so I could fool them into thinking it's from the ice," answered Hoth proudly.
"Ah, I see. Well then what do you need me to do?" she then asked, they had to go through two more places before all of Hoth's memories could be restored. Without alarming whoever is also looking into these caves, the faster they completed these searches, the less trouble they'll run into.
"Hm, these particles will connect to you once you use your energy, so simply convert them into spirit energy then transfer them into me by directing them straight in between my eyes. While this is happening, there will be a disturbance indicating the fall of the barrier, while Licky can hold them, some of those people can still get through here. She and I will not be able to move, so you will need to protect us, if we get disturbed in any way, there could be a backlash on Tria."
"Licky? I thought you said we'd be done by the time the barrier fell off" asked Tria.
"Licky is my pet, the giant sand lizard you saw out there," he answered, "he's already aware of this process, therefore it will do his best to block anyone from entering. We will be close to being done, I believe."
Hoth's memories were not complete, therefore he was not completely sure about how long it would take to finish off. Therefore, he explained the floorplan of the cave, and where the entry and exits were. Then he and Tria positioned themselves towards the back with Crei and the protectors encircling them.
"Alright, let's start," murmured Tria.
Sitting legs crossed on the floor, Tria started converting the particles into spirit energy as they made thin line flying towards Hoth who had his eyes closed. As soon as the particles made contact with Hoth, icicles crashed on the ground and the whole cave shook.
Hiss! Hiss!
"We did it! We finally did it!" cheered the magic practitioners.
Cheers and footsteps could be heard from the upper ground, followed by fighting and chewing sounds.
Overground, Licky was smacking the arrogant humans to bloody pulps and chewing any that got close and also using his long tail push them away. He was doing great at first, but from out of nowhere another group of adventurers showed up doubling the number of his opponents, which resulted in a few passing through. Licky did not stop, his skin was unpenetrable and with his super fast movement skills, one hit was enough to kill those humans.
"We had barely started, and they're already running toward their deaths, " said Mata upon seeing incoming men.
Down below, the people who had passed through were shocked to find that the priestess and a group of other strong people were already there.
"It's the priestess! The priestess! We have to go report to Master," screamed one of them.
"You think they're going to let us? They'll all at least Saints level," he said, then whispered to one of the men who were close to him, "fall to the back and make a run, do not stop until you get to the base."
"Hm," the man answered and did as ordered.
Crei and the others did not miss out on their little talk, and Mata was about to pull that man back with her whip, but she was stopped by Crei.
Crei was first stopped by Chukah a little bit earlier.
"The priestess had been waiting for this moment, they must be the same people from last time. I shall follow him and find out who is behind all of this."
Chukah had been with them all along, and for his mission, he was required to stay in the shadows.
"Don't worry about him," Crei told Mata.
The Eye group was glad that their man was able to get away as they slashed through Crei and the protectors' defense. More and more were passing through the barrier, and Tria was only halfway done. A god was after all a god, the amount of knowledge they had was unlimited.
