MMORPG: Rise of the Peerless Pumpkinmancer

Chapter 174: Invincible?! What The Hell!

Chapter 174: Invincible?! What The Hell!

Jack deeply frowned as he saw the hellish army decimating the human troops. They pounced on the players, ending their lives as easily as one would chickens.

< Soul-Devouring Exalted Hunter lv 25 ??? >

It was as if the Hunters had been injected Stimpacks! Their damage, speed…and even resistance were increased exponentially.

Jack quickly did a few mental calculations. There were a few hundred players and a few dozens of the creatures, but the allies would be wiped before one could say Pumpkiiinnn!

Fuck! This was the freaking worst!

"Hahahaha, this is the end!! Kneel over and admit your defeat!! Actually, there's no need. Minions, kill them all!!" The Devil's voice resounded across the battlefield.

With each of its cackles, more and more humans would die. Its laugh was the precursor of their defeat, driving the monsters to a frenzy.

The dark miasma invaded all, with the humans barely able to fend it off! They were struggling even more with the deadly predators! Screams of distress echoed only to be instantly silenced.

At this rate, it would soon be over, they'd perish and the holy light would be snuffed out. Many players were already complaining.

"Noooo! This is impossible to clear!"

"We'd need about a thousand more players!"

"How the hell is this so unbalanced?! It's like no one planned this event!!!"

Jack couldn't help but give a wry smile. The last guy was definitely right since he had been the one forcefully summoning the Devil.

But, how could anyone have known that it would somehow devolve into this whole mess?!

To be fair, anyone else confronted with a sudden apocalypse would have probably lost their cool long ago.

The be even fairer, it wasn't like others even had the qualifications to attempt such an insane thing in the first place.

But now he had clean up…

The last line of defense had just fallen, and the creatures were upon them. Jack's party stepped forward, but they knew their efforts were futile. This was only the last effort of a dying cause.

This was the Devil's victory. They knew it, it knew it, and Jack… sighed as he resolved himself to use a trump card of his own. He wanted to keep it, but his hand was forced!

"Stupid Devil, you should have stayed obedient. Now there's no turning back anymore." He scoffed.

That's when he extended his arms, summoning giant flames toward the rest of the plain. A second later, Jack had created an enormous ring of fire around their little group.

The scene looked incredibly heroic with the fiery circle and the holy glow in the middle! But that didn't impress the Devil one bit!

"Hehe, it's only a matter of time before you run of mana! What will you do then!!" The evil cackle, laughing its ectoplasm out.

But the man simply gave a small smile of ridicule.

"When I run out of mana? I'll do this instead!" Jack stated.

That's when the flames suddenly changed. From pure fiery destruction, they became tainted with darkness. Were there traces of demonic energy in there?!

The stunned Devil realized that the man was pouring his very life essence into the spell. Was he crazy?! At this rate, he'd die in a heartbeat!

But just as his HP was running out, Jack casually gulped a potion, then another and another. What the fuck?! He was popping them as an incredible junkie would! There was no downtime at all!

+24 HP!

+22 HP!

+23 HP

As soon as his HP went up, he'd instantly spend it to increase the might of the flames! No, those weren't just flames anymore. It truly was an inferno!

It consumed the plain, the Hunters, the players, and any other creature still alive. It devoured absolutely everything.

"How?! This doesn't make sense! How can you do that?!! What are you?! The Devil cried out as Jack kept raining fire.

[ + Fire Manipulation Mastery! ]

[ + Fire Manipulation Mastery! ]

[ + Fire Manipulation Mastery! ]

"We call this an exploit." Jack's murmur was almost lost amidst the crackling of the magical flames. Only his companions barely heard it.

The NPCs were especially stunned.

"H-how is this possible?!"

"X-ploit? What kind of power is this?!"

"It must be an incredibly unique one!"

"This goes against the very laws of magic!"

"He's using his very life force. The pain must be unbearable!"

Yet even now, Jack was smiling as he grinned at the Devil in the distance. So what if the creature had OP troops? He was motherfucking Jack'O!

At this moment, he had been elevated from Demon King to God of Fiery Destruction in their eyes. Many even wondered what he was doing in the mortal realm!

The heat kept rising, so quickly that it would have put the greatest arsonists ever to shame. The fire completely engulfed the shadowy creatures.

The Hunters all died, all at once!

"W-WHAT?!" The Devil trembled in fright but then resolved itself.

The human wanted a fight of endurance? It would freaking bring it on! It was ready to drain the mana node's power to the very last drop! It sent all that mana to its minions!

"Let's see you fight this!!!!" The Devil screamed in annoyance, rage, and pure malice.

The shadows were still disappearing, but they'd instantly respawn as soon as they were gone! They were seemingly invincible!

This face-off made everyone feel like they were insignificant in comparison. Many I.R.L. members fell in fear as they witnessed it all!

But then one of them finally ran out of juice….

[Detected Multiple Usages of Blood Magic!]

[Abnormal Quantity Of Spells Detected!]

[Analyzing! Analyzing! Please Wait!]

[Added Overexertion Backlash!]

The system had already fixed the exploit. From now on, this infinite "mana" trick wouldn't work anymore. With it stopped all offensive from Jack.

The inferno disappeared entirely as the Devil cheered.

"Hahaha, it's over for you! It's time to die and—"

But instead of showing despair, Jack looked incredibly confident. His arms were even crossed as he glanced at the battlefield.

"Idiot, I was only buying time!" Jack winked, and that's when the Devil finally remembered that its target hadn't been Jack, but the holy torch!

Except, it was already too late….
