Cosmic Patron System: 100X Return on Every Reward
Chapter 49 - 0 | Menace
The Bison’s group seemed a bit reluctant to attack Reyansh after seeing him tank a lightning bolt. A second later, Reyansh moved with his hammer raised as effect of the electrocution wore off.
The group scattered, trying to get away. Reyansh slammed the hammer on the ground, causing a shockwave, leading to fumble by the monsters.
[Raisena_Forge: At this point, bro is just straight up menace.]
[Anonimus_Assassin: Even the monsters of dungeon seems to avoid the lightning strikes but here he is, withstanding it with just his hammer.]
[Fiery_Redina: I don’t think White Rank gates are a challenge to him anymore, he is probably doing this for fun.]
Here, just as monsters lost their footing, Reyansh gripped the handle tight as he swung his hammer upwards. Putting all his strength, he hit a Bison from below, flinging it up in the air.
Remaining Bison enraged, charged at him with intent to run him over. A smirk appeared on his face as he rotated his arms low, aiming at the legs of two Bison, causing them to fall down, hitting their head.
While the two monsters remained incapacitated, he jumped in air as the bison he hit earlier was streaking towards the ground.
As both reached the same level, Reyansh pumped mana into hammer, making it lighter.
He glanced at the side for a microsecond and swung it horizontally with his full strength as veins bulged from his arms when he hit the Bison on the abdominal area.
"And that’s a Six," he shouted as the Bison’s trajectory changed from falling downwards to flung across diagonally, straight towards the two remaining bison.
The bison unable to control itself in air along with the force impact of Reyansh, collided directly into two bison on ground as they tried to move away.
After two strong hits from Reyansh, the bison was near its death while the two bison it collided with were on the ground due to sheer impact from collision.
[Raisena_Forge: Holy Menace!]
[Daoist_kun: What’s a Six? Aren’t there five monsters only?]
[Mr_Blue_Volcano: I joined a bit late, but what in the freaking lava was that?]
[Black_Nails09: Haha...that was funny.]
[Black_Nails09 has donated 10 Cosmic coins for your choice of phrase.]
[You have gained 1000 Cosmic coins.]
As Reyansh feet touched the ground, he first eliminated the two bison he had incapacitated. Then he moved to the three bison on the side.
The two bison were trying to stand while the last remained on the ground. Reyansh moved with speed, smashing the heads of both monsters with a swing of hammer.
He slowly walked towards the last bison, barely clinging to life. "You know, you are the first monster today to take three hits. Well done," Reyansh stated as he flattened his head.
Talking a deep breath in, he relaxed the hammer’s handle slightly, he checked his right hand. He could feel minor tremor in his hand due to the lightning strike.
He glanced at the chat, a smile formed on his face, seeing Arpita’s reaction.
"Most of you wouldn’t have understood the meaning behind, ’Six,’ I said. It’s a term from a game we had before everything went to shit."
"So, for some time, I wanted to become a Cricketer too." Reyansh gave an explanation with slight smile and moved ahead.
[Anonimus_Assassin: So, it isn’t being played anymore?]
[Black_Nails09: No, there was an attempt to restart it but it ended in a disaster.]
[Raisena_Forge: How so?]
[Black_Nails09: Cheating, excessive force and accidents. It was almost a bloodbath.]
[Ramon_Night: I am pretty sure he would be a monster in that game too.]
Reyansh kept an eye on the chat, relieved that he won’t have to answer the questions.
’She is good, should I think about giving her manager spot after my channel rank up?’ he wondered as he sprinted amidst the windy green grass field.
’Nah! My system is too good to be just trusted that easily plus I am sure she has her own ambitions too.’ He concluded after a moments thought.
While he was running, the atmosphere suddenly quieted down as clouds gathered above. He felt the hairs on his body standing up, his instincts also warned him.
Following his instincts, he jumped a bit ahead. The moment he jumped, a thick bolt of lightning struck the place where he was standing.
’This dungeon is really ought to get me,’ he remarked looking at the cracked and charred ground.
[Ellise: These green grass really paint a different picture, it has one of the most dangerous environment.]
[Mr_Blue_Volcano: Yeah, in the lava one, you could avoid it but here if you are even a second late then you better pray your defences are solid.]
Reyansh sprinted deeper into dungeon, he encountered three more bison and eliminated them easily.
One thing he noticed that was the frequency and intensity of lightning attacks had increased, making him extra caution.
[Daoist_kun: What kind of D-rank boss lives in such extreme conditions.]
After a sprint of few minutes, Reyansh finally spotted a huge bull like monster among the storm of lightning. The boss was standing amidst the lightning bolts like he had nothing to fear.
"Just peachy," Reyansh remarked as he moved towards the direction of boss.
As he reached in complete visible position, Reyansh got a look at the boss monster. The monster was larger than 10 ft. A slight hump on its back but the main attraction was its four horns.
Two of its horns were in front, pointed with blue and red lightning wrapped around them. The remaining two horns were in sideways and curved, giving it an imposing look.
As Reyansh took a step forward, the boss fired a bolt of red lightning, aimed at him. Instinctively, Reyansh brought his hammer in front.
As the lightning passed through the hammer, Reyansh felt a slight tingle in his fingers and arms.
’Potent but not as dangerous as the real thing,’ he stated mentally.
[Storm_Knight: This seems a tricky situation if boss don’t come out of this lightning storm.]
[The Blazing Sandra has issued a challenge for 1000 Cosmic coins.]
[Challenge: Defeat the boss monster within a minute.]
"Okay, I was already on time constraints, this only pushes me further." Reyansh stated as eyed the boss monster.
’This hide must be very thick, the impact of hammer will be reduced and scattered all over the body.’ Reyansh noticed the body of the four horned bull.
He looked at the hammer as an idea bloomed in his mind.
The boss also seemed patient, waiting for Reyansh to make the first move.
Reyansh noticed the repeated lightning strikes that made the area look more like prison of lightning.
’The way boss is standing there after firing a warning shot, it’s not gonna move and waste my time.’ He thought.
After thinking of a plan for a second, "Well, here goes nothing." He remarked and rushed forward.
The boss monster, seeing Reyansh approach, dug some dirt with his hoofs as it readied itself for his attack and shot small bolts of lightning but didn’t move forward.
Reyansh dodged some while tanked some with his hammer. With a focused mind and heightened perception, he entered the Prison of Lightning.
As both were about to collide, Reyansh skidded sideways, creating some separation with the boss monster.
Before the monster could turn back and charge again, Reyansh ran forward in full speed.
Few lightning strikes hit around the fight, as the boss monster was turning, Reyansh jumped high in the air, bringing his hammer down.
At that moment, suddenly his hammer changed into a broadsword and it descended. Before the boss monster could fully comprehend, a mana enriched sword slashed through his neck, cleanly.
However, before Reyansh could even process the victory, the hair on his hands stood up and the atmosphere quieted down completely.
[Raisena_Forge: MENAC...]
"FUCK" the only words Reyansh uttered when a thick bolt of lightning struck him as he was trying to raise his broadsword.
