The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 445: Threat
Chapter 445: Threat
The orc could not react at all, before a spear was directly lodged into its chest.
Red blood immediately began coming out of the mouth of the orc, considering that the attack that it had received was not something that it could just ignore.
Before the orc could even do anything, another attack suddenly landed on its back. In the next moment, the orc was hurtled forward, and it landed heavily onto the ground.
Behind the place where the orc was previously standing, Angela stood there with her arm raised. In one hand, there was a spear that was made out of rocks.
Angela was actually a mage of the earth element. The special thing about her was the fact that she was quite strong, stronger than normal mages. That was the reason why she was capable of approaching the orc, and attacking it before it could even react to the attack. Moreover, the gap that existed between the two of them was quite big.
Angela was a mage, almost like a combat mage. It was just that the profession that she possessed was named as earth element mage, but even then, her body was always getting stronger with each level up. She herself would not understand what was going on, but even then, she was actually stronger than a few close combat warriors that were a level or two below her.
Currently, Angela was already at level 4 of the diamond rank. This was all thanks to the assistance that she had received from Sarah. Sarah decided not to kill monsters when she understood that she was not going to be able to level up. Instead, she allowed her sister to be the one that was doing the killing, allowing her to be able to level up to the level that she currently was in.
As for the orc, it was only at level 3 of the diamond rank. Additionally, it seemed that it had just managed to get to that level. As for the blonde-haired guy, he was currently in level 2 of the diamond rank.
The moment that the orc collapsed onto the ground, Angela once again attacked with the spear that she was holding.
Puchi!
The spear managed to lodge itself into the forehead of the orc, with the orc not having a chance of resisting at all. If it came to physical abilities, it was obvious that the orc was above Angela. But when it came to the matters of speed, she was above the orc, considering that the orc possessed quite a massive body.
So, if the two of them began competing against each other on who was the one that possessed the most prowess, it was definitely the orc. But right now, the damage that she could deal, together with the speed that she possessed, was capable of completely overwhelming the orc.
The moment that the orc was struck by the spear for the second time, it was not capable of holding on anymore, and it died after a few seconds.
Angela looked at the blonde-haired guy in front of her, and after a while, she immediately got the information about him.
[Smith
Power level: Level 2 diamond rank
Profession: S-grade Spearman
Skills: ???]
Smith on the other hand also looked at the information about the lady that had been capable of taking care of the orc that was almost defeating him with just two moves, and he was immediately flabbergasted.
He could actually see nothing at all. There were just question marks all over, not even a name was displayed. Could it be that she was using an item in order to hide her own information? But was it actually possible for her to hide her name as well?
Smith did not know how to react in this situation. This was actually the first time that he was seeing a person that he could not get any information about completely.
Of course the reason why Smith could not see information about Angela was simply because she was close to Henry for the past few months. Due to that reason, just like Adam and the others, she had also been affected, and the information about herself had actually been hidden.
Smith was just about to ask something when Angela spoke first. "Instead of standing there and looking at me like that, why don’t you go and assist your subordinates? After all, although it is true that two of my colleagues are dealing with the orcs, it is definitely impossible for them to be able to prevent the deaths of your subordinates completely."
The moment that he was reminded, Smith immediately took action. Just like Adam and Rachel, he immediately began blasting the orcs, intending to kill them as soon as possible.
From the observation that he had made so far, it seemed that this group of people was not here with ill intentions. But even then, thinking about the dungeon, it was definitely impossible for them to not have any intentions towards it as long as they knew about it. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
So, if they actually did not know about it, although they had helped him, he wanted to make sure that they did not know about it. Who could guarantee that they would not actually decide to slaughter him and his group the moment that they realized that there was something good that they could utilize in order to level up?
In just a matter of about 5 minutes, all the orcs had already been killed off. The casualties for the humans had already reached about 7,000. The number had already began increasing, and had it not been for the fact that Adam and the others took action, the casualties would have actually been the entire group of humans.
After everything was done, nobody went ahead to deal with the drops that had been gotten after killing the orcs. But instead, they looked at the group of three. As for Adam and the others, they retreated to the periphery of the open space, where Henry was located.
Smith hesitated for a moment, before he began following them. And on seeing the leader moving towards the group, the others also decided to follow.
"Thank you, all of you. If it had not been for you, we would have actually been eliminated." Smith said sincerely.
"I do wonder if you are actually sincere in what you are saying. After all, you are telling us that you are grateful, but you are still hiding. Could it be that you are having some intentions that we don’t know about?" Adam asked sarcastically.
Smith was a little stunned, but even then, he looked at Henry and the others with hesitation clear in his eyes. It seemed that he was actually not willing to reveal the face that was hiding behind that mask.
But after a moment, he decided to reveal the face. In any case, if any of the people here wanted to see his face, there was actually nothing that he could do. That was especially so for this person that looked to be the leader of this group.
Holding the metallic mask with his hand, after another moment of hesitation, Smith pulled it away. He revealed an exquisite face, that looked quite feminine. But even then, some masculine features could be seen.
From the looks of it, this guy was actually one of those people that possessed beauty, although they were men. It seemed that that was the reason why he was hiding behind the mask.
Smith looked at the reaction of these people, but he realized that none of them had reacted explosively as he had expected. Instead, they simply raised their brows a little, before they returned to normal, as if what they had seen was nothing.
"Anyway, you don’t have to care that much. We have dealt with the orcs considering that we are enemies in the first place. As for you guys, you are humans, and we are on the same side. What do you think about joining our side?" Henry asked.
Smith was once again startled. He had not expected that he was going to be invited just like this. But then again, thinking of his own ambitions, he was actually unwilling to join another group. If he joined this group, he was definitely going to be at the very bottom of the food chain.
Stealthily, he decided to look at the information of the other people. But he realized that he could not see the information about any one of them. It seemed that they were using an item to hide the information about themselves.
Smith swallowed. He was not sure if he accepted to join them, he was going to receive good benefits, and if he was going to refuse, if he was going to be dealt with.
Just as he was hesitating, Henry spoke up. "It is not as if it is a must for you to accept the invitation. But in any case, even if you want it or not, you will have to submit at some point in time. After all, we have the intention of uniting humans in the entire world here, to resist the other races."
Smith took a deep breath after hearing that. Of course, it was a dream for many people to unite the entire human race, and become their leader. But of course, many of those dreams were bound not to be fulfilled. But looking at Henry, perhaps there were the chances? After all, the power that they possessed right now was incredible.
Of course, he understood that what Henry was telling him right now was also in form of a threat. He could resist now, and they would not force him. But there was going to be a time that they would actually force him to submit or die.
"Give me some time to contemplate on this matter. I should be able to give you a response in about 2 days." Smith responded.
"Well, it doesn’t matter. You can take your time." Henry responded. Then, he and the group immediately turned around, heading towards the direction of the dungeon. The moment that Smith saw that, a hint of maliciousness flashed in his eyes.
