Although Helga and the dwarves knows the monsters here quite well, I can also just check their Status to know them as well:
-----
[Acid Swamp Sli: Lv43] [Rank: C] [Status: Furious, Hungry]
[Description]: A powerful Sli-type monster whose body is almost entirely composed of Acidic substances that can easily dissolve anything. These monstrous Slis can reach up to heights of over ten ters, and they travel across the swamp like giant nets, catching whatever gets trapped inside their bodies and dissolving them, absorbing them completely.
They're vicious and lethal, their acid can even dissolve the hardiest of armors. Even magic armors struggle to not dissolve before their acid. An extrely dangerous monster which only makes people run away from its presence.
[Skills]: [Acid Sli Body] [Self Division] [Giant Body] [Endless Self Regeneration] [Dissolving Acidic Enzys] [Acid Poison Bullets] [Acid Splash] [High Speed Swimming]

[Giant Greater Swamp Salamander: Lv52] [Rank: C ] [Status: Furious, Hungry]
[Description]: A Giant Greater Swamp Salamander, a mighty beast of over eight ters of height with enormous jaws with sharp teeth to devour and shred anything they find in the depths of the swamps… or even above them. They have long and slippery tails that can easily catch foes by wrapping around them and they have amazing swimming speed.
They can control both Water and Poison Magic, but they seem to favor he mighty strength of their jaws, which they use to crush and swallow whole prey. Despite their enormous size, they live in colonies of over fifty, fighting threats together and fiercely protecting their territories.
[Skills]: [Poisonous Goo Coating] [Giant Body] [High Speed Self Regeneration] [Poisonous Giant Tongue] [Enormous Crushing Jaws] [Poison Bullets] [Poison Breath] [High Speed Swimming] [Call for Help]

Both were terrifyingly strong monsters at C Rank and above! However, it was quite obvious that the giant Salamanders were stronger both in numbers and levels and Ranks, C compared to C Rank is a whole world of difference.
Yet… I knew sothing was odd about the sli!
"GUUUUUH!"
The Sli gave out a weird sound, as its body began drinking the water of the swamp and growing bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger!
POOOF!
And then, it suddenly started self-diving, creating an army of its own body, hundred of smaller slis of around a ter and a half began coming out of the Acid's Sli body constantly!
And these guys, although weaker than their parent, were very strong anyways and packed enough of a punch to be considered a threat in such ridiculous numbers.
"They're getting closer!" Cried Root. "Gyuuuh!"
"Wait, did Nyx provoked this?!" I asked.
"Sowy…" Nyx apologized while being held by Lucifer.
"Can you handle it?" He wondered.
"Yeah, don't worry about it." I sighed, quickly flying forwards with Root above my head. "Alright Root, let's fight to our heart's contents! Dwarves stay behind, use the Bone Magic Bows I made for you guys to fight from the safety of distance!"
"Roger!" The Dwarves said in unison, as they pointed their Bone Bows at the approaching horde of Slis and Giant Salamanders.
SPLASH! SPLASH! SPLASH!
It was an enormous wave of monsters, but it was quite clear the slis were more. The mother kept making them almost endlessly, so they were about to surpass the hundreds in numbers. I guess we cannot waste this opportunity to rack up as much EXP as we can!
"Now Root, show how much you've grown!"
"Very well, master! Gyuuuh!"
Root flew towards the Slis as he was quickly greeted with acid bullets fired accurately towards him! However, Root quickly conjured an aura of Spiritual Power, part of his Spirit Embodint Skill, and then generated several Spears made of Wood out of thin air, not from his body, firing them at the slis to test the waters.
SPLASH! SPLASH! SPLASH!
The enormous spears reached the slis, quickly splattering them over the water. So suddenly managed to reform, others died and couldn't regenerate.
"Odd… so do and others don't?" I wondered.
"Hm, I get it! Cores! They have tiny spots inside of them, gyugyuh! We must aim at those!" Root said smartly.
Wait he's actually way smarter than I thought!
"R-Right! I had just figured that out!" I pretended I had figured it out, but in fact Root surprised there.
"You're stupid or sothing?" Tyr asked .
"Agh shut it! Anyways, let's use your powers." I said with a smile. "Root, cover the left side!"
"Got it!" Root flew around in his Spirit Form as he quickly began firing more and more Wooden Spear Projectiles, blasting through the dozens of sli monsters. He didn't had any energy-based attack so he had to do with what he had.
But thanks to this Spirit Embodint Skill, he gained the ability to float like spirits and shift his stats to boost his Speed, MP, and Magic Attack. Like this, he was already able to spam magic attacks and easily cover us up until he wanted to go more physical. In which case, he would need to switch to his normal form and lose the ability to fly.
But that was alright! I am here as well, I'll give him a hand, of course.
"Tyr! [Spirit Connection]!"
"I already heard ya the first ti!"
Tyr angrily answered my call, as I connected my soul with him.
FLUOSH!
Right after that, I felt an overflowing power coursing through all of my being. The Darkness of my Soul intensified, as I felt Chaos and Miasma pouring at near endless quantities.
My appearance changed lightly, my hair turned completely black and purple, as my clothes beca as black as they could. An Aura of Chaos and Miasma started to erge from within my very being…
"Oh yeah, this is the good shit!"
I never thought it would feel so nice to do Spirit Connection with this grumpy spirit, but it was actually pretty amazing! I felt empowered with new Spiritual Energy of the Miasma and Chaos Elent, my magic was boosted, and I was now able to do way more than before…
I don't really want to steal all the kills, but if Root can get shared EXP, that's good enough for . Don't worry Root, I'll only do a little test!
