"Get ready for the fight" Around twenty minutes later, the voice of A rank hunter who was floating in the air reverted to the area.
Rumble -!
Just as his voice sounded, all the hunters felt the ground shake a little because of the thousands of monsters who were coming toward them.
Evan and other hunters who will fight directly were standing in front of the formation wall, while the hunters who were long range fighters were standing at the top of the walls with the support class hunters.
When the monster tide came into their sight, the support class hunters quickly took action and casted buffs on the other hunters.
(Your strength is increased by 5% for the next twenty minutes)
(Your agility is increased by 5% for the next twenty minutes)
(Your defence is increased by 8% for the next ten minutes)
(Your mana recovery - - - -)
Evan watched as different notifications came before his eyes one after another.
'I should create some shadow undeads with support type skills in the future' Evan thought feeling his power increase greatly because of the buffs.
Arrows and different kinds of elemental attacks were launched by long range hunters on the approaching monster tide.
Other hunters who were standing in front of the formation wall also rushed forward to clash with the approaching monster tide.
When compared to monsters, the numbers of hunters were quite low.
But even then because of the boost provided by the support class hunters, and the teamwork of the hunters, they were not afraid while facing the monsters.
"Let's go," Mark said in an excited voice and rushed forward.
He was eager to use his large shied, and now that monsters were here, he can finally use it.
Seeing Mark rushing forward, Evan and others also followed him.
While running Evan also summoned Aqua by side.
Just as he summoned Aqua, its purple eyes shone with blue light and a water armour appeared around Evan.
Even though he was wearing B+ rank armour extra protection is always welcome.
Sophie and the others were not surprised by this because they already saw Evan using it.
When Sophie and others asked him about Aqua after he killed the wolves during patrolling, just like what he told Edward, he told them that he has a skill that allows him to summon a B+ rank monster.
When they heard he has a skill that allows him to summon a B+ rank monster they felt like they are not in the same world.
After all, what kind of concept is this where a D+ ranker summoning a B+ rank monster.
Mark was running in front of Evan and others and seeing the Monsters he used the skill taunt.
When Evan saw Mark using taunt skill last night during patrolling he was completely speechless.
According to Sophie, Mark bought the skill book of taunt from someone.
She doesn't know how much he paid to buy the skill book, but according to her, he bought this skill so that he can attract monsters and use his shield against them.
But Evan doesn't really care about this, on the contrary, he actually felt it was a good thing Mark has taunt skill.
Using his skill, Mark can attract some monsters towards him, and Evan and others will be able to kill them easily.
Just as Mark used his taunt skill a red aura appeared around him and soon around fifteen monsters rushed towards him.
Among fifteen monsters two were C+ rank, five were B rank and eight were B+ rank.
In the group of monsters that Mark attracted, there were five frost lions, three mantis type monsters, three goblins and five deer type monsters.
Most of the hunters who were fighting were ignoring the monsters who were below B rank.
But Mark was attracting all the monsters regardless of their ranks like saying
'You shall not pass from here!'
If it was any other B rank hunter, he would have already run away after seeing so many monsters coming towards him at the same time.
But instead of showing a panicked expression Mark laughed out loud and smashed his large shield on the ground.
"Fortress Shield" Mark shouted and used one of the skills of his A rank shield.
His large shield shined in golden colour and looks like an immovable mountain.
Because of his taunt skill, all the fifteen monsters were in a frenzy and did not stop even after seeing the shield shining in golden colour.
The three mantis were the fasted and arrived before the shield first.
After coming there they slashed at the shield with their scythe like arms because Mark was standing behind it.
At the same time, the frost lions also shot ice balls towards Mark.
But even after seeing their attacks Mark just smiled and stood behind his shield.
Booomm-!
The scythe like arms of the mantis clashed against the shield, but they were not even able to shake the shield with their attack.
The attacks of frost lions also hit the shield covering the ground around Mark in ice, but even then he stood behind his shield completely unaffected.
At this moment Caleb who was at the back of the team took action, his eyes shone with neon pink and invisible waves of energy spread out from his body going towards the monsters that Mark attracted.
Just as those monsters came into contact with the energy wave released by Caleb, their mind become calm and they stopped attacking.
Caleb has 'Psychic Element' related skills, he can control or calm down monsters by using this.
His skills are very effective against the monsters who are of lower rank than him, but he can control or calm down high ranking monsters only for a short period.
After Caleb used his skill, all the monsters stopped attacking Mark and stood there without doing anything.
The next second David took action, and the ground below the feet of the monsters split open and their feet were trapped inside it.
Just as their feet were trapped Caleb stopped using his skill, and the monsters returned to normal.
It is not easy for him to stop fifteen monsters at the same time.
When the monsters returned to normal they tried to break free from the ground.
But before they can break free, Sera, Evan and Aqua took action.
Sera used her dagger and using them slit the throats of the trapped monsters like a professional assassin.
On the other hand, Evan used his sword to kill the monsters.
Aqua also used its powerful skills and killed the three goblins from the distance.
It is been just twenty seconds since Mark attracted the monsters, but using their skills perfectly they killed all fifteen monsters without any problem.
After killing the monsters they did not even wait, and Mark used his taunt skill once again attracting another group of monsters towards them.
While Mark attracted the monsters, Evan stepped aside a little and came near the dead body of a mantis.
Aqua moved in front of him so that Sophie and the others won't be able to see him.
After he was sure that no one was looking at him he used shadow resurrection on the mantis.
The next second a shadow mantis rose in front of him, Evan immediately gave it a storage ring and asked it to move away from there.
Hearing Evan, the shadow mantis took the storage ring and quickly ran away from there.
Seeing the mantis going away Evan tried to hide his dark smile.
The goal of the mantis was not to kill the monster but to steal the cores of the dead monsters.
