Alix and the others rushed off to the creatures, taking one of them each but due to the creatures being that of the shadows, darkness, they were hard to fight and certain attacks didn't work with them.
Some of the creatures was quite strong and gave them quite a hard time in getting an attack to land. Alix and the others regrouped at the very center of the area as the creatures surrounded them and their eyes narrowed as they stared at the darkness around the creatures.
"They are alive, not dead, attacks will work, some just move too fast, you slow down and for those attacks that just don't harm them..." Ifrit said as his eyes glowed orange while looking at the creature he was fighting.
The creature was tall, had beady green eyes and four limbs and was very fast and could use flames as well.
Alix looked at the bigger one among them and noticed that it was not moving at all and was only looking at their movements while standing near the area the door was in and he chuckled.
"They are alive and smart alright, which means they can be killed, focus your attack on their body, read their movements and for those whose attacks are not working, change it and make it deadlier except in a different form, it can work, just focus," Alix said and they exchanged glances.
Their eyes widened when the creatures roared together and the sound coming from them was loud and had a vibrational impact on their body and it rang in their ears.
"Argh... That hurts, damn it," Kyris mumbled as they covered their ears.
They looked around and saw a bunch of silver-like poles surrounding them and realized they were using that to their advantage as well.
"This is bad, I feel like my organs are about to burst open," Ayden said as he gritted his teeth, Adora glanced at him and her eyes widened.
"I am unable to create a barrier around us, it's distorting my energy, it's too much," Kyris said as the ground beneath their feet got heavy.
Alix glanced at the one standing near the direction of the door and his brows furrowed when he saw its eyes glowed purple.
"Stop it already..." Ifrit mumbled as flames began forming in a scattered manner around his feet and Adora glanced at him when she saw black flames forming around Alix.
'Vibration, the sound, oh, it's similar to that one,' Adora thought as her eyes began glowing and energy began forming behind her and surrounding the others and they looked at her and she smirked.
"Force the energy to flow within your body, even if it hurts, but be careful," she said and Alix chuckled as his body began moving and he disappeared with speed, just when one of the creatures was about to attack him.
Alix's eyes glowed blue and he kicked the creature, releasing his blue flames in the process, which sent the creature crashing into a wall and smoke began releasing from its body.
Alix landed before Adora and the others and a smile appeared on his face as his eyes glowed brightly and Ayden chuckled and Ifrit broke loose with flames forming around his two hands and a piercing look in his eyes.
"I am enjoying this a little, let's test how strong you guys really are, can you guys break loose now?" Ifrit asked.
Adora looked back at the others before stepping forward, then kicked them, releasing a burst of energy and since they were already getting out, it sent them flying apart and they laughed before regaining their balance and landing on their feet.
They looked at Adora and she grinned at them then they stood up straight before looking at the creatures.
"They are strong enough to defend the door, meaning because of them a lot could lose their lives and some would run before even thinking twice, they are worthy of protecting this place," Kurson said and Zack nodded with a smirk on his face.
"You guys really are a bunch of battle maniacs, there are twelve of them, let's just get this over with and follow what Alix told us, we will be able to defeat them if we avoid close contact with their attacks, they are deadly," Aerav said and Alix nodded.
"At times they merge their attacks, only a few times you will have the chance of using a deadly slow attack, use your time wisely, you won't get another chance, focus on their movements, your surroundings," Alix said and they smiled.
"Look at their timing, they wait for each other and only sometimes move separately, also, they use the shadows to their advantage as well, if you don't want to get badly injured, watch your backs as well, got it?" Adora asked.
"Yeah," they responded as she closed her eyes and her sword appeared in her hand.
Alix looked at the energy that was forming around her sword and he chuckled as his hand glowed blue and black.
He lifted his hands up and the flames began taking different shapes around him, some that of smaller flames and some other weapons.
As the creatures were about to attack them, each of them moved at the same time and while being careful, yes, some of them got a few scratches but despite that, they managed to land their attacks and then regrouped in the middle of the area.
The entire room began shaking as their attacks went off, some causing small vibrations and explosions while Alix's, shattered a small section of the room and Adora left staring at his flames as they looked as though they were eating due to how hungry they were and she exhaled deeply.
When the attacks died down and the room stopped vibrating, they looked at the dead creatures on the floor and the smoke coming off of their bodies then Alix smiled and Adora exhaled deeply.
"Shall we got to the next?" Alix asked and Adora clenched her right fist then nodded and he patted her on her shoulder.
"Let's go to the next section," Alix said as he walked away and Adora smiled slightly as they approached the final door, the one which they had to get to.
