Chapter 452: Apex predator. NOT edited
A group of 9 people fully equipped in armor were running above the speed of sound, the man was leading the group to 'clear' the way, and the girls were following behind the man in a straight line to catch the wind's impulse and not get caught. get tired unnecessarily.
As the man was the one with the most stamina due to his special condition, he promptly volunteered to go ahead.
"Eleonor, a pack of the Behemoths class in front of us."
"Yes." Eleanor looks at the girls with her monster eyes, and the girls nod their heads as their eyes slowly change to one similar to Eleanor's.
The sclera of Eleanor was completely black, and her pupil was as thin as a reptile and green in color with golden undertones.
"Conflicting in 3... 2... 1... Now!"
Victor suddenly stops running along with the girls, and the first thing the group sees is 20 gigantic monsters, all of them were over 10 meters tall, some even reached 20 meters in height.
Assessing the situation quickly with his eyes, Victor says:
"Three high-level Behemoths, the rest are all low-level."
This simple information was enough for Eleanor to act.
"Dorothy!" Eleanor pulls her greatsword from her back and positions herself with one hand.
"I'm, Ready." Dorothy takes her two black swords from her waist, and quickly jumps into the air.
Eleonor places her greatsword on Dorothy's foot, when the girl steps on the greatsword, Eleonor throws the girl towards the monsters over 20 meters tall.
"Anrietha."
"I'm done." Anrietha , the woman with long brown hair, spins the priestess staff, and hits the floor.
"#$%" Words on an unfamiliar line are spoken with gentle intonation, and soon the entire group glows with brown power.
'...I can't get used to this feeling of getting stronger all of a sudden, it's very... Weird.' Victor thought as he opened and closed his hand.
Anrietha who was flying in the sky is also hit by Anrietha's power, and her speed gets faster, sounds of air breaking several times are heard.
'Give me you Head, piece of shit!' Dorothy thought.
The smile on her face was quite intimidating, a kind of red aura came out of her body.
She spins in the air and with a clean cut she cuts off the monster's head... Well, at least she tried, the only thing that was damaged was her armor.
ROAAAAAAAAAR!
The monsters had been alerted, and now they were heading towards the group.
Anrietha who increased everyone's strength appears in front of the group while holding a giant shield and a greatsword in her other hand, the weight of these weapons along with her armor which was even more robust than the group was unbelievable, just a vampire like Anrietha I could wear it, and not feel any weight at all.
"@#%#" Again, she whispers an incantation under her breath, and the black shield in front of her begins to glow, the shield is enveloped in a layer of red power, and soon that power explodes.
ROAAAAAAAR!
The power seems to draw the monsters' attention, and soon even the monster that was focusing on Dorothy turns its attention to Anrietha.
Looking at the woman in front of him, Victor thought.
"This armor is stronger... How far are we from home?" Eleanor asked when she saw Dorothy fail her sneak attack.
"20 KM." Judy a woman with long blue hair spoke in a cold tone, she takes the giant rifle-like weapon from her back, and points it at the monster.
Her eyes become sharp, and when she deems it necessary, she pulls the trigger.
Bang!
The rumbling sound of a gun is heard.
A hole is made in the head of the monster that Dorothy failed to kill.
"Tsk." She clicked her tongue in annoyance, as they got further and further away from the city, the sneak attack she and Eleanor always made was starting to fail, she quickly used her two swords and pierced the monster's heart effectively killing the monster.
Soon after, Dorothy jumped on the back of one that was heading towards the group, and used her two swords to attack the eyes, of the monsters that didn't have a protective shell, she jumped from monster to monster as if she were dancing on the battlefield. .
"You're doing a lousy job, calm down a bit, this is going to happen more often than you might think.=." A long-haired, blond-haired woman appears near Dorothy.
"I know, Juliet."
"Good."
"Get back to the group, the assassination job is up to me." She disappears into the fog, her eyes starting to scan the monsters' bodies.
"..." Dorothy doesn't say anything, she just picks up the momentum on the closest monster and gets closer to the group.
'Let's eliminate the most problematic first, the one that can summon a horde of monsters.' Its eyes focus on another 30 feet tall monster.
.
When that monster was about to scream, she slashes its throat with her daggers.
"GGRR?"
And quickly, she drives the daggers into the monster's brain.
The monster doesn't stand still either, it uses its claws, and its thorns to expel Juliet, but the woman just takes her daggers, and disappears into mist and appears in the air.
She puts away her daggers, and takes the large black bow from her back, she makes a pulling motion on the string, and soon an arrow made of pure power is made.
"Two Down." She releases the arrow, the arrow splits into four more arrows and pierces the monster's head, and heart.
"Eleanor." Victor spoke when he saw the creatures getting closer,
"I know." Eleanor stomps on the floor heavily.
Quake, quake, quake.
The ground starts to shake, and soon a wall of more than 20 meters is built around them.
Victor looks at the wall, and cold air starts to leave his body, soon the entire wall is covered in ice.
BOOOOOOM!
The creatures crash into the wall, and Victor sees a small crack in its ice that quickly regenerates.
'My ice is not common, as it is made by my power, it is much more resistant than the diamond itself, and even so these creatures are managing to break it.'
Victor began to realize that the further he got from the city, the harder it became to kill the monsters, his powers stopped having an effect like in the beginning, the lightning and fire didn't even seem to have an effect on the monsters, the only powers that still work. completely is the power of blood, and of water.
Thanks to his training, Victor is able to manipulate the individual's water, effectively killing him, but as they are immortal creatures, doing so is virtually useless, he only temporarily immobilizes the monsters.
The further away he got, and encountered stronger Behemoths-class monsters, Victor was forced to use his powers more for support.
Of course, against minions, his elemental powers were extremely efficient, he could burn an entire horde of minions, and that would give the group 1 or 2 minutes of breathing space.
The powers that Victor is using the most when fighting these monsters are the combined powers, he has realized that if he covers his Odachi with elemental power, he will still be able to kill the monster and faster.
Because of that, he uses the power of lightning more, this power increases his speed to absurd levels, and if combined with Odachi, the power to 'cut' becomes ridiculous, he cuts these monsters hard like butter.
"…Ahh~." He can't help but flash a big smile.
'This is indeed the best playground.' Victor looked like a kid who found his favorite amusement park.
"Martha, Alexa, it's your turn." Eleanor ordered while not taking her eyes off the monsters.
"Yes!" X2
Martha, a woman with long brown hair and brown eyes, was the first to go, using her Knights Halberd, she jumped towards the monster.
His arm started to become more monstrous, and that power started to go towards Halberd, soon the Halberd that was completely black created green 'veins' all over the weapon.
Arriving in front of the first monster, with a big horizontal swing, she split the monster!
The swing was so strong that the ground was cut, the depth could not be seen.
Next up was Alexa, she positions herself like she's about to throw the Spear that was her main weapon.
Spear started acting weird, she started to grow and become sharper, and when she was 3 meters long, she threw it at the other 20 meter monster.
The Spear traverses the creature's entire body, effectively killing it.
As Spear was about to hit the ground, Alexa appears, and grabs Spear's handle.
Again she throws Spear at the other monsters, and when Spear goes through all of them, she appears next to Spear, and takes the weapon.
She spins the Spear around to get the nasty blood out, and positions herself, then she's disappeared again.
"That speed... Isn't it on par with me without my using lightning power?" Victor commented.
