Chapter 40: The Cold Divine Punishment
The Flamebound Knight didn’t seem to like his question as it took a step forward and dashed at such fast speed that its movement became hard to follow for Leon.
So, he did the only thing he thought he could do.
Run!
Leon didn’t hesitate to use his Sprint Boost again and bolted towards the open battlefield where countless Skeletons were roaming free.
This was the only direction he could run into because in front of him was the Flamebound Knight, behind him were the people he was supposed to protect, and to his right was the boss of this dungeon.
It had already turned into a variant version of the original boss under the influence of corrupted miasma and had advanced to Tier 4.
It was more than 20 levels above him. He would be seeking his own death if he chose to enter the fortress since there were other types of monsters there too.
Leon could already hear tremors behind him, but he didn’t even turn around to look at the aftermath, as that would only waste time he could use to widen the distance between them.
’I have two advantages and I have to use them well,’ Leon thought as he dove right into the cluster of Burning Skeletons while trying to keep his left arm stable.
Although the pain had lessened after the healing potion, moving around so much wasn’t good for it.
He had even put the baseball bat back and focused only on running. He maneuvered through the horde of Burning Skeletons while chugging down an Essence Recovery Potion.
Denver had slid that into his battle suit.
