Chapter 303: Seventy-Fifth Floor, the Old Man and the Spirits (9)

I debated whether or not I should make an even more impressive entrance, but in the grand scheme of things, this event wasn’t much different from the others.
Hyun had only instructed me to assist the defenders, and it wasn’t my first time surviving a siege. My role was clear: rescue those in danger and eliminate the monsters attacking them.
How exactly I would present myself while fulfilling that goal continued to stew in my mind.

When it came down to it, I had three main attacking strategies: my axe, lightning, and shadows.
Even though shamanism existed in this godless world, no one wielded lightning or shadow with overwhelming dominance like I did. Whichever method I chose, it would leave an impression.
Lightning was definitely the most visually striking, but if I were to use that, then I should just use everything at my disposal.
