Chapter 155: ECHOES OF PAIN
Whoosh! Whoosh! Zzzzzz! Spells were sparkling in every direction.
Clang! Clang! Spell blades and monster claws clashed with each other.
Inside the dungeon the scene soon became chaotic. Except the huge and creepy dungeon boss, other monsters weren’t that difficult to handle. But their sheer number was truly troublesome. For a group of only six hunters, it felt limitless.
But Gideon’s group kept fighting. Though their number was small, their resolve looked unbreakable. Making a small circle they kept fighting, protecting each other’s back.
Gideon waved his right hand and fire blaze engulfed the incoming goblins toward his direction. A few dire wolves tried to lunge at him, but two wide wind blades flew from his left palm and sliced them in half.
"Damn it! It’s one thing to fight back like a human, but to lay a deadly trap like this?! Are they really brainless monsters!!!" Gideon’s thoughts flared with his spells.
He was the strongest hunter present here. And to ensure his team’s safety, he was going all out. But the situation kept hammering in his head. His brain was asking for answers but reality didn’t provide a single one.
Joining shoulders with him, others were giving their all as well. Even with everything they had in store, no one was sure that they would come out unscathed.
Jessi and Ronald were not showing any mercy either. After Gideon, they were the 2nd strongest. The team’s core. Ice spears kept bursting from both Jessi’s palms that pierced the monster in the horde ruthlessly. Ronald was bringing down lightning shocks that continued to turn the monsters in charcoal. And those who dodged the strikes and closed in to attack, the tip of his spear painted them red.
"We have to fight back no matter what. I won’t let anyone die." Ronald’s jaw tightened. And his rage continued to increase the number of monster corpses. It wasn’t long before three of their members had died.
Though Ronald acted aloof on the outside, his heart always felt heavy with the recent losses. A memory flashed before his eyes.
