Chapter 35: Battle against giant slimes
The air had the smell of blood.
The timer waits for no man.
[Devour has increased to level 2]
[You have acquired 2 crystal cores: the percentage to avoid decomposition is 6.4%]
Malvoid moved toward the north.
Each step he made was covered by a killing intent.
I need to eliminate them quickly.
Immediately, the lady shouted, "Are you not afraid of death?"
Malvoid replied.
"No man or monster has total immunity to that but my priority is to survive."
At that moment, a monster was behind Malvoid.
Immediately the lady shot a fireball which catered to the monster.
And Malvoid strengthened his entire body.
No time to wait... I was a prey to kill here.
The ground cracked up.
He ran with speed.
He cleaved the skeletons and slimes he saw.
He had no pity.
Only one objective was in his mind: survive.
At that moment, the mage’s mana was exhausted.
Then the man came toward her.
"Retreat."
And he gave her a mana potion of low grade.
"I don’t have anything better to give you."
The lady spoke, "For the first time you didn’t forget a mana potion... Congrats... But it is of too low quality."
Immediately a skeleton approached them.
The man instantly burst its bones.
The skeleton’s bones rotted up and it fell to the ground.
Then the two joined their backs, each protecting the other.
"I can’t retreat and leave you here."
She drank the potion and her body shone blue for a second.
Suddenly 50 skeletons emerged from the ground.
At once she smiled and pointed her hand toward them.
"Fireball."
Immediately the man ran toward the approaching skeletons.
A swordsman threw a slash.
He dodged with ease and jumped over it.
Burst its skull twice.
Then another skeleton which had a shield and a sword clutched in his hand threw a horizontal slash.
The man bent and the swordsman bypassed him.
He rapidly burst its arm bone and skull.
The two were synchronized.
Each of them reacted instantly as the other did.
In a few minutes they finished.
The ground was cratered and bones were on the ground like littered papers.
The other lady was on the ground.
The mage approached her and touched her neck.
She is still alive, sleeping.
Meanwhile, Malvoid climbed a small hill and he gazed at a slime with a humanoid body.
"You’re the next."
Instant boost.
The next second he was behind the slime and threw a slash.
The slime ducked under the sword.
But Malvoid deviated its trajectory to the ground.
The slime moved behind him.
Immediately, Malvoid’s face darkened under his mask and his breath became heavy.
His eyes were bloodshot and aura radiated through him.
Don’t have time to waste here.
Immediately, he raised his sword.
It shone red, absorbing its mana.
[Your mana has dropped to 45%]
He moved and faked a slash, threw his sword up and gave a heavy punch to his face.
The slime stepped back and took a combat posture.
It punched Malvoid on his mask, but Malvoid didn’t move and held its arm.
Now you’re mine.
He raised his hand and the sword fell on it.
At once he severed the slime into two.
It was as if the slime was burned with fire.
[+ 2000 EXP]
The slime dropped a crystal core and Malvoid removed his mask with teeth that were sharp like a beast.
And he bit one after the other.
[You have acquired a crystal core: 10% to avoid decomposition]
It’s not sufficient.
He wore his mask and moved.
At that moment to the left, Geon slashed all the monsters which approached him.
And there was a lady behind him with white clothes and a mage staff.
Malvoid turned to his left.
Is she Elina?
She is one of the main characters, the protagonist Elina.
The character whose progression is the fastest but she is mentally unstable.
At some time when you use her she becomes useless.
Playing role: hero.
No no... I never saw her once in the game with Goen in sector 10... Did I modify the event?
He stopped and moved and spoke.
"No time to waste. I will kill him sooner or later."
[Players number: 25]
Malvoid felt an overwhelming pressure on him.
He lifted his head up and there were 4 giant slimes which gazed at him as if he were an insect.
They all smiled like psychopaths.
In front of them there was an adventurer who was using a hidden skill.
He was panicking as he fled away but when he was running, a sound was heard.
And a giant slime struck him and his bones broke up.
He died and his body was thrown away.
[Player number: 24]
Malvoid strengthened his entire body and jumped toward them.
"Mana sword."
They all dodged and the next second, they used themselves to bounce.
They were bouncing in all the directions but one slime was like a moving support.
There are two fast.
Immediately a slime struck him and his bones broke.
He vomited blood.
[Your vitality has dropped to 45%]
He was thrown away like a projectile and he cratered a rock and struck the ground.
Malvoid had difficulty in moving.
A was thrown 30 meters away.
He stood up and vomited blood.
One or two attacks like that and I will die.
[New quest: Kill one of the giant slimes for a full recovery]
Malvoid whispered, "Perfect timing."
He strengthened his muscles.
[Instant boost activated]
The ground cracked and he was piercing the air like an arrow.
As soon as he arrived there once more, there was someone near him, Geon.
Geon looked at him.
"You’re similar to a skeleton I saw... but regardless, I have time to kill the slimes."
Then Malvoid smiled.
It’s the first time... we are having the same objective.
Geon took a swordsman posture and a golden aura radiated out of him.
And he moved toward the slime with Malvoid.
Meanwhile, the mage with white clothing couldn’t use her magic anymore.
She went and hid.
At that moment, the slimes bounced on themselves but Goen shouted
"You all die!!... The Holy strike."
The slime which was a support to the others dodged and the ground was cut off.
And the others moved toward him.
He dodged but one struck him and Geon was thrown away.
But he fell on his feet.
Not bad for a slimes.
At that moment, Malvoid’s blade shone red,
"Mana sword."
The slime dodged and the others struck him.
He moved a few meters away and his mask cracked up.
At once a golden aura radiated from Geon.
He made a step and in front of the slime he threw a vertical slash.
The energy of the blade cleaved two slimes which were on the spot.
[+ 8000 EXP]
[Geon has leveled up]
At that moment Malvoid swallowed saliva.
This guy is stronger than before... even more than in the game.
Malvoid’s body was trembling and he laughed, "Haha."
He was under pressure and he felt even weaker than before.
[Berserk mode activated]
His intelligence was converted into strength and speed.
His mana was unlimited for a minute.
Immediately his eyes shone with red light and his fury intensified.
He raised his sword.
[Instant boost activated]
The slime jumped backward but Malvoid was behind it.
He severed it and the slime dropped a crystal.
[Quest: completed]
[Full recovery of vitality]
He moved like a beast and the others.
The slime jumped backward and Malvoid struck the ground and the next second, the ground cracked up.
[Instant boost activated]
He severed the slime into pieces and it dropped a crystal core and it rolled on the ground.
[Berserk mode deactivated]
[Your mana has dropped to 5%]
At that moment, Geon stared at him.
He is a danger and a monster... This will be his grave._
