Chapter 208 lnfancy Stage
About thirty minutes into their journey on the third floor of the Labyrinth, Oliver suddenly shouted out loud, "I see a monster! It's coming from the east!"
Everyone turned their heads simultaneously, and they could see a large fin approaching their direction.
Seeing this, Leo immediately cast Void Spear and tossed it at the monster while it was still in the water.
BOOM!
The explosion caused a slight drizzle, and the monster's guts flew all over the place.
<+24 Magic Points>
When he saw the notification, Leo knew that he'd killed the monster.
"Hm? We can't collect their mana cores like this, can we?" Leo asked after realizing this.
"That's why most people hate sea monsters, as it's incredibly difficult to collect their mana cores. But there's nothing we can do about it, especially not in this situation." Sarah shook her head.
However, Leo wasn't too saddened by this, as he had a method to collect the mana cores through the Magic System's Auto Loot.
The only reason he had it turned off was because he didn't want to raise any suspicions. Now that he could use it without worrying about the others, he turned it back on without any hesitation.
A few minutes later, Jasper alerted him.
"Monster to the east again!"
Leo tossed a Void Spear at the moving fin.
Boom!

Sometime later, Leo suddenly thought of something.
"Hey, Lilith. Can the Devourer of Gods survive under water?" He asked with a curious expression on his face.
"Don't tell me you're thinking about letting it wander in the water…?" Lilith looked at him with a dumbfounded face.
"That is exactly what I am thinking. The water is pretty dark, so it won't be easy to notice the Devourer of Gods, and it can feast on the sea monsters. So? Can it swim?"
Lilith nodded in a dazed manner, "Yes, it can swim, but it'll be weaker than usual— about 50% weaker."
"50 percent? That's a lot weaker." Leo was surprised to hear this.
"What did you expect? Your Devourer of Gods is still in its infancy stage, and it's never swam before." Lilith shrugged.
"Wait… Infancy stage? Even though it's so big?"
"Yes. Until your Devourer of Gods takes a form, it will be considered as an infant."
"Takes a form? What kind of shape can it take?" Leo asked, his eyes filled with curiosity and interest.
"That will depend on its personality and how you feed it. For example, if you feed it only boar-type monsters, it might take the form of a boar. It might even take the form of a dragon if you feed it enough dragons. Oh, it can also take the shape of a human."
"How much do I have to feed it before it transforms?" Leo then asked.
"It really depends on how much mana the thing you feed it contains. The more mana it contains the faster your Devourer of Gods will grow."
"Wouldn't it be disastrous if my Devourer of Gods takes the form of a fish if I feed it too many sea monsters?" Leo began having second thoughts about letting it roam in the waters.
"Also, can the Devourer of Gods die? What if it encounters a monster or entity that it cannot consume?"
"The Devourer of Gods is almost immortal. You can burn it or slice it, but unless you destroy every cell of it at once, it will simply regenerate back to normal, so it's incredibly difficult to kill and you don't need to worry about that at all. And if it happens to die, you can create another one, but you will have to start from scratch." Lilith explained.
"As for your other worries… Even if it decides to take the form of a fish, you can always tell it to change its form since it's not a permanent thing."
"I see… There's still a lot that I don't know about the Devourer of Gods."
After contemplating for a few more moments, Leo decided to let the Devourer of Gods enter the water and catch its own food, but he waited until they encountered a monster.
About 20 minutes later.
"West!"
While everyone was focused on the monster in the distance, Leo summoned the Devourer of Gods and had it enter the water before killing the monster with Void Spear.
After that, he proceeded to ignore the Devourer of Gods, eventually forgetting about it.
Over the next several hours, Leo did not encounter another monster.
"What's going on? We haven't encountered a single monster in a while now." Oscar said out loud after realizing this.
"I have a bad feeling about this." Jasper said.
"Remain alert. We might encounter a 'school' soon." Sarah said.
"A what?" Leo raised his eyebrows and looked at Sarah with a questioning gaze.
"A 'school' refers to a group of sea monsters. It's basically a monster stampede but with sea monsters instead." Sarah explained.
"Oh… A 'school' as in a school of fishes?" Leo didn't know whether to laugh or cry after realizing this.
A few hours later, Oscar suddenly stopped walking when he noticed a wave appeared in the distance, and this wave grew taller and wider with every passing second.
"I-It's a school!" Oscar exclaimed when he realized the situation.
"Prepare yourselves!" Sarah shouted as she began casting her magic spell.
However, before anybody there could even finish casting one spell, Leo already sent over 50 Black Bullets flying towards the sea of monsters swimming towards their direction.
<+21 Magic Points>
<+22 Magic Points>
<+17 Magic Points>
<+19 Magic Points>
And again.
<+25 Magic Points>
<+13 Magic Points>
<+20 Magic Points>
The wave quickly died down as the Devourer of Gods consumed the rest of the monsters.
Despite being weakened by 50%, the Devourer of Gods remained a menace and threat to the sea monsters. Furthermore, due to its unique body, the monsters were unable to deal any real damage to it.
Although they tried eating it, the Devourer of Gods would regenerate what was eaten almost instantly, rendering their efforts futile.
"I know I have said this multiple times by now, but you're really something else, Leon…" Oscar swallowed nervously afterward.
"It's nothing much." Leo smiled.
