For every 2 donation, Ill release an extra chapter the following day.
The first thing that came to mind was [Water Sword Dance].
It’s the ultimate skill of [Water Sword Technique], which has the most outstanding effect among the evasion or defense skills I have.
Eighty percent of the time, it was [Water Sword Dance] that pulled me out of extreme crisis situations.
However, I shook my head.
‘That’s not a projectile.’
Just as all ultimate skills are not invincible, there is a clear limit to [Water Sword Dance].
Targets that can be deflected or defended.
It is generally limited to long-range attacks.No, to be precise, it can block close-range attacks.
However, it doesn’t work efficiently against multiple opponents.
If I block the wolves with [Water Sword Dance] right now, Kim Chae-eun will be harmed first, and I will also have difficulty blocking attacks from all directions.
[Water Sword Dance] was a skill specialized in defending against attacks pouring from a distance, or attacks pouring in one-on-one.
Awoooo-!!
The wolves didn’t give me a moment to think.
Those who ran at their unique fast speed were already close and ready to rush at us.
To buy a little time, I first inflicted a status abnormality on them.
“……!!”
Awo?
Awooo….
[Declaration of Domination] of [Oppression].
One of my skills that can almost certainly inflict status abnormalities.
Fortunately, the Gray Wolves, whose willpower stats are low compared to their physical abilities, easily fell into ‘fear’ and stopped moving.
But this time is not long.
It’s just to buy time for a counterattack.
I quickly called Kim Chae-eun.
“Chae-eun, field…”
“It’s ready!”
Kim Chae-eun’s [Field Freezing] spreads around.
[Field Freezing] is one of her two wide-area skills.
It’s weaker than [Frozen Fog] in controlling opponents, but it has a little more killing power and covers a much wider range.
The ground that started to freeze quickly with magic soon covered almost all the surrounding wolves.
Of course, that doesn’t mean the hunt is over.
Even though they were tied up, the Gray Wolf is a B-grade monster.
It wasn’t a monster that could be killed with one wide-area skill.
‘But I’ve bought a lot more time.’
With [Declaration of Domination], Kim Chae-eun had time to cast magic.
With [Field Freezing], I had time to hunt wolves.
The chain-linked skills were all for buying time.
Parts- Parts-
I quickly picked up the [Penitent’s Sword] and started hunting the wolves closest to me first.
Combat using [Agile Agility] and the smoothness of [Water Sword Technique].
Lightning from [Penetrating Brain Strikes] is already contained in the sword.
Awoooo-!!
But around the time I cut down about four Gray Wolves,
The effects of [Declaration of Domination] and [Field Freezing] were almost over.
Their status abnormalities began to loosen slowly.
It’s the recurrence of the crisis situation I had put off.
That’s not all.
The four Gray Wolves cut by the sword did not die either.
The lightning attack of [Penetrating Brain Strikes] was effective, but it didn’t do much physical damage.
I knew why that was happening.
‘Damn. They even have defense runes.’
I had forgotten for a moment.
Gray Wolves are not only fast and strong physically, but they also have a rare defense rune called [Tough Wolf Skin], which makes them highly durable monsters.
Unless you have a high physical strength, it’s not easy to penetrate their skin.
[Sturdy Fangs] rune special effect or [Hide Attack] skill.
The effect of reducing their durability is desperately needed in this situation.
But now I’m not in a position to use them.
“Chae-eun, come this way!!”
“Yes!”
Following [Field Freezing], Kim Chae-eun, who had been using attack skills in succession, quickly clung behind me.
In case of physical attack from wolves at once, Kim Chae-eun who is a dealer is most dangerous.
In such a bad situation, it was safer for her to come towards me, who is definitely ahead.
‘I’ve gathered… all my magic.’
Surrounded by dozens of wolves.
All prepared attacks were canceled.
It’s quite desperate, but there’s no room for complacency yet.
Because what I prepared wasn’t just this.
I used my last saved magic skill.
‘Power Break!’
[Fragmented Earth Garden] derivative skill, [Power Break].
A skill that shakes everything around by giving shock to the connected ground.
From the beginning, I intended to use this skill.
However, to maximize the efficiency of [Power Break], there must be many monsters around, and it was not suitable for the situation where wolves were running in sequence as before.
So I bought time with Kim Chae-eun’s magic and [Declaration of Domination], and created a space where they could gather.
[Power Break]!
The [Power Break], having completed sufficient preparation, made the seemingly impossible situation possible. With a loud crash, the surroundings collapsed entirely. The [Power Break] caused a tremendous vibration, shattering the ground. Rocks rolled down from all around.
The ‘stained rock pile’ was literally a rocky mountain overflowing with rocks. Large rocks and boulders split one by one, plunging the wolves standing on them into chaos.
“Wow, wow….”
