671: Kill you with fire

Chapter 671: I'll Ram You to Death with Fire, You Bastard!

What terrifying magic fluctuations! The power of this move will definitely be terrifying!

No... While magic attacks are very effective against a Lava Giant! But! You can't use Fire-type magic!

What's the opponent's name? Lava Giant!

Fire! Fire resistance is their highest magical resistance!

Nori Felice felt her vision go dark, almost laughing from anger.

However, what happened next left them all dumbfounded.

Countless fireballs suddenly merged together, forming one giant fireball.

"Go!" Ellie waved her hand, and the giant fireball plummeted towards the Lava Giant.

The enormous fireball directly struck the Lava Giant's body.

Its massive body perfectly absorbed the fireball.

Boom!!!

The next moment, a terrifying explosion erupted, and flames engulfed the Lava Giant.

Nori Felice and the others retreated, watching the flames, ready for the BOSS to go berserk.

Soon, the flames dissipated, revealing the BOSS in shattered pieces.

And a ground full of light clusters.

These were the monster materials and gold coins "dropped."

???

???

Everyone was full of question marks.

Seriously, sis!

You one-shotted the Lava Giant with a fireball?

What's the difference between this and choking a dog to death by shitting on it?

Ellie actually knew the opponent had high magic resistance, but since she had already cast the spell, there was nothing she could do... she could only defeat the opponent in a different way.

Of course, it wasn't that she added anything to it.

Why did it become a giant fireball? She didn't originally intend for it to be one.

The change happened because she suddenly realized that, as a Lava Giant, its fire resistance might be very high.

So... she simply defeated the opponent on a "physical" level.

Yes, that giant fireball was defeated purely through "explosion" and "impact," not by high temperature and flames.

But Nori Felice and the others didn't know that!

What they saw was Ellie one-shotting the Lava Giant with a fireball.

"Ellie, your... what's your talent? And how high is the level of that move!" Nori Felice looked at Ellie in disbelief, her face full of shock.

Actually, it's not impossible to achieve, for example, if one's talent has bonuses like ignoring "elemental resistance," or if the skill itself has it, or if an extremely high skill level leads to a "qualitative change," essentially a "tier" Rolling.

But this kind of situation usually only happens when a high-level suppresses a low-level.

According to what Ellie said, she's only level 35, and she's fighting a BOSS, and a BOSS with extremely high fire resistance at that... yet Ellie one-shot it with a single skill!

One-shot kill!

No one at the same level can usually one-shot a BOSS in a dungeon.

Even Nori Felice and her group, with their current level and gear, are fighting "low-level" monsters, yet they can't one-shot a BOSS.

After all, Nori Felice is already level 39, and she can't one-shot a level 32 BOSS, even if the Lava Giant has very high physical resistance, they still can't one-shot later BOSSes!

They've tried before.

That's why they were even more shocked by what Ellie did.

"Sorry, I spoke out of turn." Nori Felice immediately apologized after asking, dropping the topic.

This was considered quite an offensive thing to ask.

"Let's go, we'll continue forward!" Nori Felice collected all the dropped rewards, then said to Doris and Ellie, "We'll divide the spoils after we get out. I'll show you what dropped first."

Saying that, Nori Felice displayed the dropped items.

Ellie glanced at them. There was a good amount of gold coins, at least several thousand, and then there were Lava Giant Lava Blocks (monster materials).

However, Ellie didn't want any of these things; there was nothing good for her.

"I just need a little bit," Doris said from the side. For her, getting experience was already very good.

She saw that the experience was quite a lot! A single BOSS gave her +5% experience.

This was already a lot!

Levels aren't that easy to gain.

But getting experience meant she had dealt effective damage to the BOSS... even if it was just scratching, at least she wasn't truly freeloading!

"Let's go, we'll continue forward," Nori Felice said.

Everyone continued deeper.

Following the path, they exited the lava cave.

They then arrived in a deeper cave.

The surrounding air became increasingly hot, and occasionally, they would frequently see lava flowing down from above, forming a scene of a lava waterfall.

Such scenes became more frequent as they delved deeper.

Lava waterfalls, both large and small, appeared on both sides.

Fortunately, there were no lava waterfalls that blocked their path forward.

Along the way, unique monsters made entirely of flames—Fire Spirits—also began to appear.

These creatures are pure elemental beings, essentially immune to the power of fire.

And their physical resistance is also very high, but even the small monsters produce valuable Fire Crystals.

Originally, when fighting the BOSS and small monsters in the second stage, Nori Felice and her group would use temporary Ice-type or Water-type elemental enchantments.

Now with Ellie the mage present, everyone's gaze turned to Ellie.

"Alright, alright, I'll do it~" Ellie nodded helplessly. How did she suddenly become the C-ranker?

Wasn't I a freeloader! I was clearly a freeloader!

How did I start carrying the team while freeloading!

Ellie had a good impression of Nori Felice and her group; they were people she could be friends with.

So, facing their request, she could only agree!

Power of Earth and Ocean!

Power of the Ocean!

Ellie unleashed streams of water dragons.

Those Fire Spirits were basically instantly killed upon contact.

They were all one-shotted.

Everyone stared at Ellie dumbfounded. No, weren't you chanting spells? How did it become instant cast now?

"Ahem~ I'm the type who's multi-talented~" Ellie touched her nose and explained.

"Ellie, you're a transverser, aren't you?" Nori Felice thought for a moment and asked Ellie.

"Eh? Is it that obvious!" Ellie looked at Nori Felice in surprise upon hearing her words.

...Nori Felice shook her head helplessly: "It is indeed obvious, and your magic is clearly different from our local system here... Besides, all your information on the team panel is question marks. Normally, when being investigated, question marks appear, meaning you can't be detected.

But if they're all question marks on the team panel... then it's highly likely you're a transverser, not belonging to this world."

"Oh! So that's how it is!" Ellie said with a sudden realization. Looking at it that way, it was indeed very obvious!

As soon as you team up, you're immediately exposed!

No wonder transversers like to be lone wolves!

Ahem~ Of course, this world is still very tolerant, and there are quite a few transversers.

"Then for the BOSS later~ I'll trouble you!" Nori Felice said to Ellie: "Of course, we'll also contribute! But the main damage output will rely on you."

"No problem! Leave it to me!" Ellie patted her chest and said.
