Chapter 315: Turning point (8)
Luke jumped from the flying fortress, and then he saw the hammer guy swinging his weapon. Luke quickly used Checkpoint and then he appeared on the ground already and at the same moment, he dashed toward the plant woman. The others formed a wall to protect her and to ambush him at the same time. Still, they regretted that because Luke grabbed the weapon of their fallen comrade and then used Weapon Augmentation level eight... he didn’t have time to play with toy gloves so he was going all out, and Luke would make sure that those bastards would regret that...
In the next moment, the weapon broke and then countless spears began to fall on the battlefield. The overlords opened their eyes widely when they saw that, but they reacted on time to use their best attacks and attack them. However, every time the attacks hit the weapons, the spears exploded, causing a chain reaction that enveloped the whole area. They tried to protect themselves from the power of those was behind them expected, the plant woman was the one who suffered the most, even though she summoned countless seeds and used them as a shield. It was quite annoying...
Since Luke was in the area, he got hit by his own attack as well, but he didn’t care. He kept dashing until he reached the enemies ahead of him and he punched their wall with all his might, pushing them backward. The effect of the claws scratched their skin and made them lose some blood.
The first ones to recover had been the fish man and the fish woman, they dashed to the sides in order to attack him at the same time and to divide Luke’s attention. Still, their speed was laughable due to the damage they suffered until now. However, before Luke could use that, the field of gravity hit him and then a lightning bolt fell as well. Still, Luke dodged by using Checkpoint. Unfortunately, on the same spot he had appeared, an angry giant landed and attacked him with a five meters long ax.
Luke barely had the time to dodge it, and he only succeeded because he approached that guy instead of moving away. His huge body helped Luke quite a bit and he punched his face by using Fury Punches several times in a row. Although Luke had increased his strength and the effects of claws were awesome, the wounds that he caused weren’t that big... the enemy probably was an endurance-based overlord. He aimed at his eyes as well, but his claws never destroyed the eyelids...
Regardless, Luke moved away in order to escape the second attack and because some plants were emerging around him as well. The plant woman was the most wounded one, but she still was insisting on fighting. Luke decided to end her miserable life in one way or the other.
The fish man and the fish woman finally charged toward Luke but then charged toward the guy who was more wounded than the girl and tried to punch him with his right claw. When the guy stopped and raised his trident, Luke disappeared. Much to everyone’s surprise, he appeared right behind the fish woman, since she had passed his starting point. Without any hesitation, he tried to slice her neck from behind, but she reacted fast enough to raise an ice wall between them. The spell stopped Luke for long enough to give her the chance to move away.
Those guys knew how to use Checkpoint in battle, but Luke was using much better than they could imagine. They were a stupid bunch that could only solve problems with brute strength and numbers, after all. Annoyed when they realized that, the overlords decided to launch another coordinated attack, and this time, they would keep their eyes on the possible location Luke could Teleport to.
As usual, the dwarf started with his gravity field and Luke let himself get hit by it. However, he moved his left arm and pointed toward the plant woman when she stepped forward to use her plants. In the next moment, her throat was sliced apart thanks to the Concentrated Strike and the power of his perfect Aim ring...

When they saw their comrade dying, they stopped for a moment due to the shock. Luke decided to use that chance and the fact that his body was feeling reinvigorated again to charge toward the Dwarf. To make things easier for him, he will need the reward of the first quest, after all. However, the hammer guy got on his way and attacked Luke. The swing of that weapon made his entire body tremble, even though it blocked the attack. A massive crater appeared around them, even though their legs didn’t give up.
"I will make you pay for this..." The hammer guy said.
"Shut up, trash," Luke said. "What can you do against me or against anyone else aside from calling all of your friends to gang up on a single target that is many levels below than you?"
The hammer guy bit his lips in anger and then held his hammer a lot firmer than before. Thanks to that, some Electricity began to cross his weapon and eventually shocked Luke, but since the voltage was a lot weaker than the long-ranged attacks, he resisted.
"Is that the best you can do?" Luke asked. "Since that is the case, I will make this quick for your friends. However, I will enjoy killing you slowly."
The fish man and woman tried to impale Luke from the sides, but he jumped and then jumped their attack. At the same time, he used concentrated strikes with his other skills and punch the area below him. While the hammer guy was there, Luke didn’t cause any damage to him, instead, he raised a massive dust curtain.
