Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 488 - 338: Light Eagle Group Assassination Team
Chapter 488: Chapter 338: Light Eagle Group Assassination Team
"Awooo——"
The wolf’s howl was getting closer; it seemed there was a beast approaching to attack the people.
But the Skyrim Strategy Group was too occupied to worry about any beast...
Because their captain just exploded!
Thick smoke billowed, obscuring the view of Luluwo in the center of the explosion, but a faint presence could still be felt.
Tami was about to rush in to save someone, but doubts lingered in his mind: Where did the arrows come from?
As soon as this thought emerged, he heard the continuous sound of crossbow arrows being wound from the distant jungle.
There was an ambush!
There’s no time to think about who was trying to harm them; there was nowhere to hide on the cliff, and they had no shield to block, so they had to run to the magicians!
Without Ais Em’s magic wand, the power of the magic released by other magicians would decrease, but at this moment, it was their lifeline!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh——"
Enchanted arrows shot continuously, and the magicians worked together to release a magic shield; the effect was okay at first, but when the enchanted arrows began to explode, the magic shield’s flickering frequency noticeably increased, forcing everyone to fully mobilize their magic power just to barely maintain it.
"What’s going on, who’s trying to mess with us?" Mila shouted, currently without any handy weapon, she could only grab a few skewers from the fire pit and twist them together.
Bows and crossbows were surely used by intelligent beings, so the attackers must be intelligent creatures.
"Instead of thinking about this, think about how to escape," Berto dropped his shattered glasses and said to Tami, "I’ll save the captain, you and Mila cover Ais Em and everyone else, don’t let anyone get close."
"Oh!" Tami, despite having no weapon, clenched his fists, as he was once the famed leader of children within ten miles, capable of beating all eight-year-olds with his fists.
"To get down from the cliff, we can only choose to break through; the enemy will surely charge after realizing the ineffectiveness of the crossbows, then, don’t panic, and carefully seek out potential breakthroughs."
Before the words finished, Berto had already rushed out of the protective range of the magic shield.
The unknown enemy had spotted him, and at that moment, a good half of the arrows flew towards him.
"I thought after falling back from the frontline, I wouldn’t have to fight anymore..."
Berto clicked his tongue, slid while moving swiftly to dodge most of the arrows, grabbing the iron plate used for grilling to deflect more arrows, and when he reached the supply area, he slung the heavy backpack as a shield, crushing the tattered iron plate, instantly flinging the shards towards the jungle during a quick turn.
It seemed cries emanated from the woods, mixed with beast-like sounds; were the attackers beastmen? But he paid little attention, as most of the smoke from the explosion had cleared, revealing Luluwo’s half-body lying on the ground.
"Captain, how are you?"
Berto took out a healing potion from the inside of his clothes, uncorking it when he was still a meter away from Luluwo.
The smoke suddenly surged, and as the potion spilled onto Luluwo, a furry giant fist abruptly appeared before Berto.
"!"
A heavy and powerful punch landed squarely on Berto’s head, sending him rolling several times before barely coming to a stop.
"Cough cough, pfft..." Berto spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling dizzy, straining to lift his head and look ahead.
The dense fog had completely dissipated, revealing the figure of the attacker.
It was a small giant over three meters tall with a beastified body, furry skin, a head marked with the word "King", was it a tiger-like beastman?
No, its fists and feet were covered with snake-like scales, and there were octopus-like tentacles on its back.
"Demon Clan?" Berto was bewildered for a moment; such an alien form only the Demon Clan would possess, but its aura wasn’t like the Demon Clan, more like a demon beast.
What on earth is this?
For now, call it a beastman; the beastman’s mouth moved, as if trying to say something, but then held back forcefully.
The captain had warned them that saying too much could lead to trouble, so no talking.
This was indeed good advice, as paired with his silent, gigantic figure, it conveyed a unique pressure.
"Senior, let me help you!" Tami shouted.
"Don’t come, focus on your side!"
Berto loudly stopped him, as the enemy’s arrow attacks had ceased, and one after another, alien "monsters" emerged from the woods, crushing and swallowing their bows and crossbows, the enchanted arrows were also "reduced to nothing" due to the explosion; besides the charred marks on the ground, there was no trace to prove their existence.
These beastmen, with at least three animal traits, roared and charged at the group from different directions, at first glance disorderly, but upon closer inspection, it seemed they followed a certain formation, definitely not mindless monsters.
Berto didn’t have time to analyze further, as the beastman’s fist had already arrived before him; if this punch hit, his internal organs would be shattered.
"Bang——"
The intense shockwave blew the surrounding stones away, and the beastman’s smug expression vanished, letting out a surprised "Huh". freёnovelkiss-com
Because Berto blocked the punch with his hand, though the opponent’s arm was trembling, it was indeed blocked.
