Chapter 776: Chapter 777 – Unknown Building – Part 3.
(Shit! To think I will run into that bastard first!) – thought nervous injured Cave.
(Not only that, they are strong.)
(I’ve blocked off their ambush, but I still ended up getting wrecked extremely hard.)
(From what I’m getting at, they are assassin build user with a combination of a warrior.... But still... Fuck me.)
(The amount of damage they are doing is beyond scary.)
"LM! DON’T GET HIT BY THAT SWORD! THE WOUNDS FROM IT DON’T EASILY HEAL AND THEY AFFLICT YOU WITH BLEEDING STATUS!" – shouted Cave as the Forgotten Murder rushed at the dark cave kobold, alarming Cave who used his one-handed shield to block off the attack, before then swinging his great axe at the Forgotten being.... But his blow was easily countered by the murderer’s sword, stopping the axe in the place.
However, at the same time, several magical construct arrows flew from behind the murderer... But with barely any effort, they used their crimson claw to cut to shreds all the arrows.
[Surprise Murderer]
However, the arrows were distraction, as the shadow clown appeared near the murder’s shadow, before then emerging and stabbing the Murder’s leg with a long funny looking knife.
"!" – the Murder quickly responded by using their crimson red claws to rip off the clown’s head off, instantly killing the attacking creature.
[Manifestation Arrow: Huge Explosion Arrow]
[Savage Oppression: Cruel Devil]
The two players instantly launched powerful strikes from both directions, landing each hit with a perfect pincer attack that unleashed a massive explosion and outburst of rampaging energy, which ended up even damaging the hallway the group was from.
"!?" – but right after receiving such powerful combo, Cave was suddenly sent flying by the crimson claw, before in the next moment the Murder rushed straight towards LM, making the goblin player panic as he started unleashing arrows at the Murder, who was able to dodge all of the shots with ease.
[Trickster Arrow: Honey Trap]
However, LM was missing on purpose, setting a trap as in the next moment all the arrows that had missed the target suddenly shot at the Murder from all the directions, piercing their body.
"[Tricker Arrow: Festival Arrow]!" – sand right after that, LM fired off a firework like arrow that upon striking the Murder unleashed a massive series of bright and cheerful lights.
(While it is stunned, I need to make some distance! That thing is way too fast!) – thought panicking LM as he tried quickly backing away as the cheerful flames were swallowing the corridor.
And while LM was trying to gain some distance, Cave was quickly using [Savage Madness], boosting his own regenerative power.
"!"
(Shit! What the hell is going on?!) – thought Wretch as he stared at his HP, which should be quickly restoring itself over time.
(So, the wounds it inflict reduces the percentage of any healing received?)
(Fuck me! This is really fucking annoying sword!) – thought Cave as he gotten ready to fight once again, aiming to start buffing himself while there was opening.
However, the Murderer already recovered and went straight for Cave, instantly emerging from the playful fire as it swung its cruel saber at the kobold, forcing kobold to defend himself from the series of blows.
(That sword is problem! The more it hits, the heavier the bleeding effect will be!) – thought Cave as the Murder bounced off the walls, aiming to catch Cave off guard, who barely blocked each strike.
(I’m dark paladin build user!)
(Unlike light paladin who specializes in the defensive frontline fight, my build focuses on the offensive frontline fight.)
(However, I have some tank type classes on me and I also use berserker build, meaning combined it with my dark paladin build, I should be fucking wrecking everything around me, even if I don’t block!) – thought Cave as he clashed his axe with the Murder’s sword. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
(BUT I THINK I MAYBE FUCKED!) – thought Cave as he knocked back the Murder, giving LM opening to fire off his demonic arrows, which some managed to hit, while the remaining ones were either dodged or parried with claw and sword.
(Even if I was regular light paladin build user, that fucking healing reduction is way too fucking annoying!)
(My main source of healing is regeneration and life steel! The damage is piling up too much, too quickly! I can try and change to two handed axe or two one handed axes in order to increase damage output, but I’m without extra defense from the shield I will be straight up fucked! ) – thought Cave as he rushed at the Murder, who paired Cave’s axe, making his blade hit the floor, before then quickly aiming to slash the kobold across the body with their sword, only for the kobold to use his shield to block off the attack.
"!?" – but as he blocked the sword, he didn’t noticed the crimson claws coming at him and then digging into his side.
"TCH!" – Cave quickly kicked away the Murder, pushing them away and giving LM once again a chance to unleash a barrage of explosives arrows, which were keeping the Murder occupied... But only for few seconds as they then rushed at the LM through the explosions, aiming to eliminate the archer.
[Hell Step]
However, just as the Murder changing his targets, Cave, ignoring his injuries, used instantly teleportation skill to get between the two and try and stop the Murder, only for them to leap upwards, dodging the Cave’s axe and then bouncing off the celling, instantly getting past Cave who tried using [Axe Art: Axe Throw], throwing his massive axe at the Murder in order to stop them, but they easily dodged the strike without looking, even the [Shield Art: Shield Throw] that was unleashed by Cave as a fallow up attempt.
"DON’T LET THEM GET NEAR YOU!" – shouted Cave as he ran after the Murder while picking up his weapons.
LM tried keeping the Murder in tracks while trying to run away and firing his arrows at them... But they didn’t cared.
LM arrows were not able to stop the Murder at all, even when LM started using few skills at random.
(Dammit!) – thought panicking LM as he fired off [Trickster Arrow: Chain And Bait], firing of arrow that flew past the Murder, but at the same time, the arrow unleashed a chain with cuff from it, which attached itself to the Murder’s leg, binding them in place where the arrow had landed.
However, it only stopped for a brief moment the Murder as they instantly destroyed the chain and then dodged the axe attack from the Cave who just managed to catch up.
But the Murder didn’t bothered with Cave anymore as it ran straight towards LM.
"!"
(FUCK! THEY ARE TOO FAST!) – thought Cave as he tried to give the chase... But the Murder was closing way too much distance.
But, as soon as the Murder reached specific part of the corridor, several hidden traps activated and blew up right in the Murder’s face.
"!"
(He managed to set up traps already?!) – thought Cave as he saw this as his opportunity, using the [Darkness Step] to quickly make a short-range blink teleportation.
Afte reaching the Murder once again, Cave swung his sword, which in response the Murder stabbed the floor with their blade and holding their ground, resulting in Cave’s blade being instantly stopped in tracks, without being even able push the Murder, which instantly put Cave on high alert.
And in the next second, the pure red claws of the Murder started emanating red light, alarming Cave who tried raising his shield.... But there was a problem.
The attack was beyond fast, to the point it could be called "instant".
Before Cave defense could even be put up, his entire area ranging from his chest to his face were slashed over by the claws, dealing critical amount of damage to the kobold instantly.
LM tried saving Cave by unleashing a hail of demonic bullets aimed at the Murder, but they quickly responded with grabbing their blade and then quickly jumping to the side, sticking themselves to the wall as the bullets went by, before then leaping in the opposite direction and straight up smashing into the doors that were on the other side, entering the room.
"CAVE!" – shouted LM.
"STOP! DON’T LOSE FOCUS!" – shouted Cave as he used [Savage Oppression: Bulldozer Blade], swinging down his axe and unleashing a shockwave that went into the room that Murder just went into the room, before then blowing up, unleashing a shockwave blast inside of the closed space.
"..."
"..."
(SHIT!) – LM heard something coming from his right side, from behind the walls, alarming the goblin player who tried making some distance... Only to fail as the Murder burst through the wall and instantly pierced through LM’s chest.
"..."
"?!" – but right in the next moment, LM’s body inflated like ballon, before then popping up like one, unleashing a rain of confit.
[Surprise Ballon]
"..."
(Fuck me.) – thought LM as he appeared out of thin air nearby.
(Now I think I’m fucked.)
(Since that was one time escape skill!) – thought LM as he was once again spotted by the Murder, who then instantly rushed at the goblin once again.
However, as it started running, a hail of demonic and dark magic unleashed by Cave was unleashed at the Murder.
(I maybe no fucking mage, but at least it will keep you in check for a fucking bit!) – thought Cave who tried to give opening to LM.
"!?"
"WAIT! STOP!" – shouted LM, making Cave panic as he stopped his barrage.
"?!"
"WHERE THE FUCK ARE THEY?!" – shouted both Cave and LM as they realized that the Forgotten Murder was nowhere in sight.
(They were just here! Right in front of me!) – thought LM as he and Cave were looking around in panic, trying to find the Forgotten creature.
(Did they ran into the room again?! Or that hole they made?!)
(NO! I WOULD HAD NOTICED!)
(So.... Where-)
"!"
"BEHIND YOU!" – shouted LM, making Cave panic as he instantly swung his axe around.
...
But right in the next moment.
Cave’s neck was pierced by the saber.
