The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker

Chapter 111: A narrow escape

Not long after, everyone finally made it up to the entrance of the third floor.

"What was behind us?" Friedrich can't help asking.

"Trust me, you definitely don't want to know," Gilbert shook his head.

"Why are you guys staying still? Continue running away!" Kayn exclaimed as he went past Friedrich and the others.

Hearing Kayn's warning, Gilbert quickly followed without bothering to ask any questions.

Friedrich, Cedrick, Roshan, and Kimberly similarly did the same after immediately noticing that Gilbert didn't act irritating this time.

Gilbert normally asks plenty of questions whenever something important comes around. So, for him to hold himself from asking and just run away definitely implies that something really serious happened when he and Kayn looked back previously.

"What exactly did you see?" Friedrich asked Kayn as he arrived beside the latter.

"I was mistaken," Kayn felt sorry.

"What do you mean?"

"That huge monster's eye didn't disappear, it just blinked,"

"Blinked…" Friedrich instantly understood the seriousness of the matter. "In that case, it probably saw us, right?"

"There's no doubt about that," Not only that, it has also sent a command to the Green Stripe Broodmothers present to go after them. As to how he knows it, Natas informed him along the way.

He badly wanted to tell Friedrich and the others. Though, he won't be able to explain how exactly he understood a spider's language.

It wouldn't be strange if it was Natas since he is a God and has lived inside the 'Tower' for fate knows how long already.

However, he is different. As far as Friedrich and the others are concerned, he is more or less a genius young man. That's all, nothing more. So, if he does something that crosses that boundary, he'd become a very suspicious individual instead.

Rattle! Rattle!

Just like what Kayn expected.

In front of them, a group of spiders intercepted their way as if knowing already that they would go through there.

In his opinion, they clearly didn't expect anything. It's probably that they've sent a group to intercept all possible locations to escape and this group in front of them just happens to be the lucky bunch.

"Don't hesitate to clear a path! And make sure to put this inside your mind — there's no need for us to kill all of them!" Kayn sternly reminded.

"Understood!" Friedrich and the others nodded their heads.

In the next moment, Friedrich launches a sword wave to clear a path for them.

Whoosh!

Bang!

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Every spider blocking their way was instantly killed by the sword wave.

"Go behind me!" Roshan informs everyone.

Roshan immediately uses Shield Dash the moment everyone gets behind him.

With Roshan completely clearing there in front, Kayn and the others had no more problem breaking through the group of spiders.

As soon as they broke through, none of them bothered to look back as they continued running forward. It wasn't mainly because they have to get out of this place as fast as possible, the other reason is that another group has intercepted their way.

"This is crazy!" Friedrich muttered as he took out another sword from his Storage Ring.

Unlike Kayn that has a skill that allows him to reset all cooldowns of his Active Skills, Friedrich on the other hand can only take out another sword to be able to use another sword wave.

It might be a simple solution, but it is honestly very inconvenient.

A swordsman only uses one sword in every stage of their life. Like if they break through another level in their swordsmanship skill. In this case, however, it has instead brought about disruption to Friedrich's familiarity thus also affecting his capability.

Good thing though that he only has to use this second sword in order to be able to utilize its sword wave skill.

Whoosh!

Once more, Friedrich uses sword wave to kill the spiders blocking their way.

Unfortunately, unlike Friedrich, Roshan can't take out another shield so that he can use again the Shied Dash skill. That's because the Guardian class is completely different to the Knight class. Their weapons still have skills in them, but they're mostly used to enhance their endurance, vitality, and strength. In other words, rather than being an offensive skill, their skills are mainly for support and defense.

"Let me!" Kimberly quickly volunteered to completely clear their path. Gathering mana on her hand, she soon activated a fire element magic spell.

Whaash!

A spell that seems to be a flamethrower burned anything else that blocks their path and also causes the remaining alive spiders to temporarily back off.

"Those flames can only hold them for a brief moment!"

Without any hesitation, Kayn and the others quickly used the opportunity to break through the second intercepting group.

"Let's make a detour over there!" Kayn pointed to the opposite side of the pillar. Previously, they were trying to not get found by the Ordinary Spiders that are currently expanding. But with their current situation, they might have to use the tunnels in order to lighten their burden since by doing so they would have fewer directions to worry about.

"I'd rather have you guys face those Ordinary Spiders than those groups we just faced," Cedrick expressed his thoughts while at the same time casting a rejuvenating spell on Friedrich, Roshan, and Kimberly. As an experienced Priest, he could multi-cast his support magic spells quite easily and without breaking even a single sweat.

"Are any of you familiar with any of those tunnels?"

"I have used some of them, but those were only on the first floor," Roshan replied.

"I used one on the second floor, but it was on the opposite side," Friedrich felt regretful. He already understood the situation. And if only he knew beforehand, he would have definitely suggested going to the other side.

"I haven't," Gilbert coughed, slightly embarrassed.

Cedrick and Kimberly both shook their heads. Being a Priest and a Mage, fighting solo against a group of enemies is very disadvantageous for them, especially for a Priest that lacks offensive skills and capability.

Kayn could only heave a heavy sigh.please visit

"You don't have to worry, all of those tunnels lead to the surface," Friedrich said some comforting words.

"Are you certain?"

"Yes," Friedrich was confident of that. "Although there would be interconnecting paths as you go deeper and deeper. But as long as you follow a path that leads upwards, you'd eventually be able to reach the surface,"

Since they are currently deep underground, they would obviously have to follow a path that leads upward. Otherwise, they'd be stuck forever in the tunnels.

"Alright," Kayn immediately thought of a plan. "As soon as we see a tunnel, let's immediately go for it!"

That was the best course of action they can take right now because if they choose to follow the same path they used before, they would be facing countless different spiders coming from all directions that bring about infinite variables.

Because they were no longer trying to hide, they continued to fight against a continuous stream of spiders blocking their path forward. And this time, countless Ordinary Spiders have joined the fight as well.

"We should have continued the previous path until we found a tunnel," Friedrich can't help saying.

"It's the same story," Kayn responded. Regardless of what they do, all spiders present in this cave would still flock to their location. One of the reasons why he wanted to stick to the wall is so that their other side would have limited space for the spiders to move around.

After a few more minutes, they finally spotted a cave in the distance.

"Over there!" Gilbert immediately pointed out.

"Let's charge to that tunnel at full force!" Kayn exclaimed loudly.

As if seeing hope to finally get out of this place, everyone decided to no longer hold back as they used all of their skills available.

Sword Wave!

Friedrich and Kayn merged their sword waves together to make their attack more effective, thus being able to clear a much bigger area.

Shield Bash!

Roshan threw a bunch of spiders in midair.

Shadow Daggers!

Gilbert started shooting down all the spiders in midair, instantly killing them.

Shield Dash!

A clear path forward was immediately created.

Flamethrower!

Whaash!

A tongue of flame spits out everywhere and burns everything in its path.

Knowing that her magic spells would be very crucial in this final attempt to escape, Kimberly decided not to hold back as she started throwing one AOE (Area of Effect) type of magic spell in front of them.

Ground Spikes!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

A series of spikes made out of earth shoots out from the ground.

Those spikes created some kind of wall that cleared a small path for them to use in between.

Kimberly soon after set up a Hail spell right beside the spikes.

Tititititing!

A series of sounds from the breaking ice that rained above echoed throughout the surrounding. All spiders under its range were unfortunately stabbed by sharp icicles.

"I'll save my last magic spell for the last," Kimberly muttered as she lead the way to enter the small path in between the spikes.

Kayn and the other followed closely behind, obviously afraid of getting left behind.

Unfortunately, the path didn't cover until the entrance of the tunnel. Nevertheless, the moment they left its protection, there is only ten or so meters left to reach the tunnel.

Without any hesitation, Kayn activated both the Sword Dance skill and Temperature Reset skill to prepare for one last sword wave.

As soon as he saw an opportunity to attack, Kayn immediately brandished his sword.

Whoosh!

A very powerful sword wave cut its way through all spiders in its way, instantly killing all of them.

"I only have this one AOE spell left," Friedrich said to Kayn.

All of a sudden, Friedrich halted his step.

Seeing this, Kayn and the other instantly stopped and quickly went to his back.

Sword Strike!

Whoosh!

A sword ray was released from the tip of Friedrich's sword.

Slightly similar to the Shield Dash, everything in the path of the Sword Strike skill was cleared out.

Because of the Sword Strike skill, a clear path to the entrance of the tunnel was created.

"Let's go!" Kayn gestures his hand as he leads the way in front.
