Alisa and the others returned to the fork in the maze and this time headed right down to the sixth level. The sixth layer is a desert area, with dry land spread out before Alisa and her team's eyes.
Let's go with a hover vehicle here."
Alisa suggested. Two hover vehicles were fabricated and one is being operated by Alisa and her team.
The demons that inhabit this place are, I believe, the Sand Wolf and the Devil Scorpion?"
Alisa nodded to Amane's question.
"However, we have information that there may also be desert wolves, a higher species of sand wolf.
The Desert Wolf is a huge wolf, five meters long. Its claw attacks are said to be extremely powerful.
What would you do if you ran into one?"
Yukari confirmed.
Desert wolves are said to leave almost nothing but magic stones, so if you run into one, run away."
What, are you going to run away?"
Yukari's face turned surprised. She thought that with such a strong team, it would not be difficult to defeat them.
I heard that the Desert Wolves here call upon the Sand Wolves under their command in battle.
It is a decision to flee because it is troublesome to be surrounded by a group of people.
Chika, please.
Alisa asked Chika to bring out her hover vehicle. Chika's storage pendant had the largest capacity of all the storage magical equipment the four of them had. Therefore, the hover vehicle was kept by Chika.
Chika produced a hover vehicle and four people got into it. Yukari was in charge of piloting the hovercraft. All of them could pilot the hovercraft, but Yukari was the best pilot.
Flying in a hover vehicle over the desert, I encountered a Devil Scorpion. I prioritized advancing rather than fighting, so I largely avoided it and passed through.
As she was making good progress, she encountered Desert Wolf. As discussed, Yukari tried to avoid the Desert Wolf and pass by. However, the Desert Wolf noticed the hover vehicle and sprinted as fast as it could to get around in front of it.
The Desert Wolf was faster than Alisa and the others expected and was able to get around in front of them. Desert Wolf leapt and pounced on the hover vehicle.
All of them intercepted with push-type magic. Chika and Arisa unleash "Titan Push," while Amane and Yukari unleash "Thunderbird Push.
The Desert Wolf, intercepted by four push magic spells, flew through the air. The Desert Wolf, which weighs over three tons, spun around and flew, striking the ground from the tip of its nose.
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
The impact bent the Desert Wolf's neck in an impossible direction. But the life force of demons is tremendous, and they do not die as easily as a frail human.
Desert Wolf immediately got up and tried to pursue his prey. However, he was in severe pain and was unable to move. He didn't die, but he suffered a severe cervical sprain.

The first time the flogging took place, it was a flogging.
Alisa, you're not following me.
Amane voiced a curious look.
I guess so. I guess I gave up, which is rare."
It had never occurred to Alisa and the others that the demons were being whipped.
After passing through the sixth layer, Alisa and her friends arrived at the ninth layer, passing through the forest area in the seventh layer and the lake area in the eighth layer. The ninth layer was a town in ruins, just as they had learned from the Adventurers' Guild. Alisa and her companions began to advance on foot.
There are phantoms and wraiths here, so be careful.
Phantoms and wraiths that have no substance cannot be defeated by swords and spears that have not been given the holy attribute. Furthermore, they are troublesome because they cannot be defeated even by ordinary magic.
Basically, if it's a phantom or a wraith, I'll leave it to Yukari to take it down with her life magic."
Alisa instructed. The instruction was to have Yukari defeat them with life magic to raise her magic level. If she did not care about the consumption of magic power, she would let Yukari defeat all the undead, but if she did that, Yukari's magic power would run out.
As we proceeded down the street, looking at houses with collapsed roofs and large holes in the walls, we came upon a fortress. It is a fortress controlled by the Skeleton Emperor and is said to contain many treasure chests.
When approaching the fortress and observing it, one finds that the walls of the fortress are also perforated in places. The iron gate is closed, but there is a hole in the wall of the first floor, through which one can enter.
Once inside, Alisa and the others proceeded down the corridor to check each room. On the first floor, there were a number of rooms that appeared to have been used by soldiers. There seemed to be few treasure chests in these rooms.
Alisa and the others peeked inside through the rotting door and looked at each other and said, 'Again. Inside, a skeleton knight was wandering around with a spear and shield.
Let's move on."
Chika said, and Amane stopped her.
Wait, isn't that a treasure chest?"
When I looked in the direction Amane pointed, I saw a small treasure chest in the corner of the room. It was large enough to lift with one hand, but its shape was perfectly that of a treasure chest.
Chika went inside and quickly defeated the skeleton knight with a flash of the Raikirimaru, then checked the treasure chest.
Oh, escape ball.
Amane grabbed the escape ball from the treasure chest. From then on, they continued to find small treasure chests and get the escape ball.
Finally, we arrived at a room with a large treasure chest. The room seemed to have been an armory, with rotting spears and swords scattered about, and a skeleton general with a battle axe was waiting for us. He was about four meters tall and equipped with magnificent armor.
Maybe it was the skeleton of a giant tribe. What caught the four of us off guard was the armor. They could feel the magic power from the armor and knew it was magical equipment. The skeleton general's jaw was jiggling.
What do you think that was?"
Yukari's question was answered by Amane, tilting her head,
Maybe they're smiling."
The moment he said that, the battle began. The skeleton general, raising his battle axe, quickly stepped in and swung it down on Chika.
Chika stepped to the left to avoid the battle-axe and slashed the skeleton general with the Raikirimaru. The tip of the Raikirimaru hit the armor and slid across the surface of the armor, emitting a metallic sound.
The skeleton general's armor was what was known as lamellar armor. It was made of what looked like dragon scales joined together with strings, and shone in rainbow colors depending on the way the light hit it. The head also seemed to have a high level of defense, as it seemed to use helmets and leg guards made of the same material.
As Chika jumps back, Arisa immediately activates her five-fold "Thunderbird Push" and shoots a lightning bolt plate at the skeleton general. The lightning bolt strikes the Skeleton General's armor and disappears. The skeleton general does not seem to have taken any damage and swings his battle axe.
His battle axe swung out and hit the wall of the fortress. The huge axe blade bit into the wall, carving a large gash. The skeleton general pulled the axe out with force, and the wall rattled and collapsed. The force of the blow was horrifying.
Yukari activates "Crash Ball" in succession and scatters D-particle vibration balls toward the skeleton general; the D-particle vibration balls hit the skeleton general's armor and disappeared.
What do you mean?"
Yukari, who had raised her voice in surprise, retreated, so Amane and Chika stepped forward and began to fight. After hearing Yukari's voice, Arisa thought calmly and came to a conclusion.
Maybe he's like the Evil God, stripped of his magical powers."
So you're saying that magic doesn't work?"
I don't have a hover cannon, so I can't fight like I did against the evil gods. Since we don't have hover cannons, we can't fight like we did against the Evil Gods, so I guess we'll have to go for the faces that our armor doesn't cover."
As Yukari began to prepare for the attack, Amane came back.
Can I try something?"
What are you going to try?"
When Arisa confirmed this, Amane showed her the "Ring of Fudo Myoo". He seemed to have thought of using the power to break the situation.
