Chapter 61: [STAGE 3] A war fought with just the two of us (2)

The monsters in this game were divided into three main categories.

The first group consisted of the normal monsters.

Which was more than 90% of all monsters, so almost all monsters fell into this category.

They were just monsters obsessed with killing humans.

The second consisted of the elite monsters.

These elite monsters were selected from the normal monsters.

According to the lore of the game, they were entities that had survived for a long time and had accumulated a lot of experience. They were also much stronger compared to other monsters from their own species.

They were naturally given a high level and received various stat bonuses.

And among them, there were a few cases in which they grew into semi-boss level entities called the Named monsters.

If the boss monster didn't appear, these guys would take on the boss role of the stage.

And the third and last category was the boss monsters.

These were the real monsters that were on a completely different level from the monsters mentioned earlier.

They were the monsters leading the corps and were often highly intelligent entities capable of giving commands to their subordinates.

However, the bigger problem than high intelligence wasof coursetheir overwhelming force.

As befitting the entities that were the pinnacle of their legions, they possessed enormous power that simply could not be thought of as a singular individual.

And that was why,

Guooooo-!

The boss monster summoning magic was treated as a cheat, even though it was one-time usage only.

The boss monster I summonedthe Giant Steam Golemmade a vicious driving noise.

Thud-! Thud-! Thud-!

After that, it started charging alone toward the 50 or so golems that were coming toward it.

If the advance of the 50 golems was intimidating like a towering wall closing in, then the boss monster's charge was like an island splitting apart a raging wave.

Originally, killing humans was the first principle of action for monsters.

However, they were especially sensitive to 'traitors'. The eyes of the golem army all turned to the boss golem.

Guooo!

Guooooo-!

The sight of giant golems rushing at each other was unrealistic. What is this, Super Golem Wars?

At a moment's notice, they closed the distance before colliding with each other.

Clash-!

And then they instantly ran into each other.

Fragments of armor and broken parts scattered into the air.

The boss golem ran amok like a lion rushing into a pack of hyenas.

Every time its long, thick limbs, like the pillars of an ancient temple, cut through the air, the enemy golem corps were smashed one by one and rolled unsightly on the ground.

However, no matter how rampant the lion was, the hyenas did not back down.

There were 50 golems in the unit.

No matter how excellent the boss monster's combat ability was, the total amount of combat power far exceeded its own when outnumbered by this much.

Guoo! Guooo!

Despite being crushed by the boss golem's fist, the rock golems and steam golems desperately reached out and tried to do some damage to the boss golem.

The effort soon paid off.

Crush!

The boss golem's fingers bent in a grotesque direction and were tattered.

It was the result of the crushed golems attacking the fist the moment they were hit by it.

All the other golems rode on the boss golem's body that stopped for a moment.

The golem corps climbed the boss golem's entire body and began to use force to rip off his armor.

I swallowed a dry gulp as I watched that scene.

It was like a praying mantis being eaten by a swarm of ants.

'I didn't expect the boss monster to defeat them all from the beginning.'

No matter how strong the giant steam golem was, it wouldn't be strong enough to defeat all the enemy golems since they were also large monsters. Plus, there were 50 of them.

There was no way a single entity could defeat all of them.

While our buddy takes down as many enemies as possible and draws attention

Let's get out of here.

We run outta here.

What?

Asked Evangeline, who had her mouth open as she watched the monsters fight each other. I nodded.

That guy is a one-time usage anyway. We have to run away while it buys us time.

I didn't come here to win against them. I came here to escape with her alive.

I pointed to Evangeline's legs.

How are your legs?

I can still walk. Although, full sprinting might be a little too much

Then let's run.

Eeh.

Legs can be fixed, but lives cannot be.

I opened one more of the potions I had packed and poured it on Evangeline's leg.

Sizzle-

Cloudy steam gushed out from the cuts and sprains. Evangeline gritted her teeth and endured the pain.

Let's go.

Yes!

I ran first, and Evangeline followed closely behind.

The direction we must take was north.

That was the direction in which the horse I had tied was at.

Ugh?!

Evangeline held her breath as she looked back after running a few steps. I looked back too.

Ziiiing-

It was the magic crystal golems.

Two golems specialized in magic were floating in the air again, their arms aimed at me.

Magic attacks don't work well against the boss golem, so they seem to be aiming here now.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

And that wasn't all.

Avoiding the boss golem, 10 golems spread widely to the left and right running after us.

Tch!

I clicked my tongue.

Looks like they won't be letting us go that easily.

It's coming, the magic attack-!

Along with a flash of light, red beams from the magic crystal golems shot at us.

Evangeline put her arms around my shoulder and lowered my posture.

Then she raised her shield and deflected all the flying beams of light.

Boom! Kaboom!

Beams of light ricocheted in all directions along the face of the shield and exploded on the surrounding ground. I grumbled.

Do I really have to bend my back so much to match your height? My back's hurting already.

What? Then you shouldn't have been so tall! Or you can get blasted off by those lasers, your choice!

Having small talk is fun and all, but that magic bombardment was threatening. I urgently issued a new order to the boss golem.

Prioritize attacking the magic crystal golems!

Guooo!

The boss golem, which was surrounded and beaten by the golem corps, flashed its one eye.

It raised its cracked arms upward, aimed at the magic crystal golems floating in the air, and shot out a beam of magic light from the fingertips.

The two magic crystal golems that noticed the abnormality also changed their target to the boss golem.

Boom! Kaboom!

Rumble!Soon, streaks of magic light rained down on each other like showers in the sky.

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

I whistled. Alright, no more magic attacks are coming this way.

However, our speed slowed down a lot as we ran while defending the attacks.

And because of that, the golems had caught up to us.

Guoo-!

Before I knew it, a stone golem that had followed right behind me screamed and charged at me.

Tsk!

Evangeline clicked her tongue and jumped into the air with the same momentum as she was running, then spun her body half a turn in the air and pulled her spear backward.

Stab!

The tip of the spear, shining white, pierced the stone golem's chest with precision, and as soon as it touched its mana core, it caused a huge explosion. Boom!

She pulled her spear from the blasting golem, and the recoil of the blast from the spear tip spins her half a turn in reverse.

Evangeline, who landed as she looked forward, ran beside me again as if nothing had happened.

Only her hair, which swayed along the trajectory of her body, proved that what just happened was real.

I couldn't help but start clapping my hands.

Wow, that was awesome.

D-don't compliment me out of nowhere!

Evangeline blushed her cheeks as she was weak to compliments.

I wanted to keep teasing her, but this was no time for that.

Thud! Rumble!

Other golems approached closer in succession. There was a limit to buying time with Evangeline's cool exquisite stunts

Where the heck is your horse?!

Over there!

I stretched my hand forward. Under a tree not far away, my horse was tied.

Neigh!

The frightened horse roared at the sight of the golem swarm behind us. It started to struggle as if it was trying to run away alone.

Don't be like that, stay still for just a bit longer, buddy. Let's run away together

It was at that moment.

Ping! P-p-ping!

A red beam of light flew in and landed on the tree where the horse was tied.

Kaboom!

Immediately after, a devastating explosion and smoke obscured my eyes.

Wha

I quickly turned around and saw one of the magic crystal golems raising its hand toward me.

The monster kept this side in check while being beaten by the boss golem's magic attacks. That nasty bastard!

God dammit!I looked forward again. Once the rising pillar of fire was extinguished, there were no traces of trees or horses left.

We stopped. Evangeline, her complexion pale, looked up at me slowly.

Is there another escape plan?

There's still plan B.

Honestly, I didn't think we'd be able to run away so safely. And because of that, plan B was my main plan.

What's plan B?

What do you think?I turned back. The golems chasing us had reached all the way to the front of my face.

I grinned as I fixed the Lucky Strike equipped on my hand.

It's to defeat all of them.

What?! Defeat the entire golem corps?! With just the two of us? Sunbae, are you out of your mind?!This is the only way to stay alive.

It takes 30 minutes on horseback, and 2 hours with human legs to reach Crossroad.

And 2 hours was more than enough time for those damned monsters to catch up to us and kill us.

I looked down at Evangeline.

It's this or we die. Are you gonna try or not?

Aaah, for crying out loud!

Evangeline turned around after me and put her shield in front of her. I patted Evangeline on the back.

Alright, Evangeline. I will instruct you on the tactics we will use going forward.

Slam-!The fist of the steam golem that rushed in immediately touched Evangeline's shield. Evangeline held back her groan and held on to her shield.

You will be focusing on defending. Use the spear only when you have reached the maximum capacity of your [Damage Store]. You got that?

Then who will do the attacking?!

Me.

I cracked my left knuckle and threw it forward. The tip of my fist touched the chest armor of the golem.

Ring!

Lucky Strike was activated, and a slot started to spin in the corner of my view. Let's see what I get!

Ring! Ring! Ring!

0, 7, 2!

72 damage!

Crush!

The golem's chest armor burst, and I hurriedly thrust my fist into it, grabbing its mana core and ripping it off.

Thud!

The golem fell helplessly to the floor as its chest had been pierced. I nodded.

Like this.

Seriously, what is the principle of that fist?!?!Principle, you ask?

The providential help from the deity of dice, that's the principle.

Crush! Crush!

The two stone golems that came after the first one were dealt with in the same way.

Evangeline blocked the attacks, and I finished it at once with Lucky Strike.

The problem came after that.

Guooo!

Two steam golems attacked at the same time, one on each side. I ordered urgently.

Take the right one out with [Damage Payback], and block the left attack!

Okay!Evangeline faithfully followed my orders.

The white shining spear pierced the golem on the right at once. At the same time, the shield intercepted the attack from the left.

I threw my left fist toward the chest of the left golem whose attack was blocked. Then the slot started spinning.

Ring!

0.

The first digit was 0.

At this moment, I felt something was not right.

Ring!

0.

The second digit was also 0.

It was the same feeling I got when I got the triple 7.

It was an instinct as a gamer. It was screaming that something was not right. It was telling me to run away.

However, the slot was already spinning.

And the final number was,

Ring!

0.

000.

Ah.

Finally,

In the end,

I hit it.

Shit.
