Is this really a Game?!-Chapter 424 Fighting At The Oasis
"Get ready you guys!" Reign shouted with a smile on his face as he took out his two swords. Upon seeing two swords in his hands, the angels, including Mia, had peculiar expressions on their faces.
They had seen Reign carry a sword during the first challenge and thought he was a swordsman that liked carrying his weapon around instead of simply summoning it when needed. Of course, they had no way of knowing that the reason he carried the sword was that it was the rank B+ [ Broken Sword of Dominance ], with both swords he now had being rank S and above, he had no need to carry one on his waist at all times, but he did so thanks to being used to it. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
As for the others, the angels had no particular reaction after seeing Tank wield his axe and shield, Greenie with his giant hammer nor Shadow using two daggers. But seeing Laura hold a wand and a grimoire was a bit weird.
The grimoire in her hand wasn't the [ Dark Tome ], but one that increased her healing powers. Since the angels were going to fight against monsters that were quite powerful, she wanted to make sure that she could heal any of them at any moment.
Wolf was another big surprise for the angels. The huge sword that he held in his hands looked incredibly menacing and a bit of dragon aura could be felt from it. Of course, that aura was from the fire drake from whose parts the sword was forged, compared to a true dragon, that little bit of aura was nothing.
Seeing the giant sword lifted like it hardly weighed anything made the angels gulp as they could only imagine how heavy it might be. The sheer size and design of the sword made for a stark contrast to Wolf who mostly wore light armor, just like Reign and the others, with the exception of Tank, of course.
Beast summoned the rest of his tamed beasts as the angels looked in astonishment. Not only did Beast have 6 monsters under his command, but each of them was stronger than a normal Tier I monster of the same level, even without seeing them fight, the angels could feel that since the auras the 6 gave off were definitely not normal.
Tank summoned his four generals as the angels were once again shocked. To summon monsters was one thing, they had seen and even fought against tamers and summoners before, but this was the first time they had seen someone simply summon four humans out of thin air.
The only similar thing they could think of was a necromancer, but a necromancer could summon monsters such as zombies, skeletons, death knights, and such, not normal humans like Tank could.
As the monsters drew near, the angels charged at the right side while Reign and the others charged left. Mia joined the battle as well, even though her ability was not at its strongest here, she was still more than powerful enough to fight against monsters of this level, as were Marcus and the other 2 top fighters of the group.
She drew a silky white sword and charged with great speed at the monsters, the sword shone brightly as the sun rays hit it, making for a stunning scene, similar to how Reign's [ Sword of Dominance ] was.
Compared to Reign, she didn't have as much strength, but her speed was incredible. It didn't even seem like she was running, but gliding on the sand of the desert before ducking and dodging an attack from a scorpion.
Her arm was a blur as she moved it, cutting off a portion of the scorpion's sting and simply moving toward the other monsters.
Standing whilst fighting such enemies was definitely not a good idea because of how large they were, not to mention their superior numbers.
The angels fought splendidly, just like they did before. They split into three groups and fought against the monsters with incredible teamwork and coordination, making the monsters not know how to even hit as they were surrounded.
Of course, they didn't simply stand around a monster, thanks to the monster's numbers, they couldn't afford to do so in order to not be attacked by them. Mia was simply moving through the crowd of monsters and wounding them in hopes of making things easier for her teammates.
As for Reign and the others, it was a massacre. None of them held back and the monsters were simply getting destroyed by their superior strength, none could withstand more than 4 attacks and they were simply crumbling underneath the devastating strength of Reign and the others.
They had to help out the angels, so there was no time to be wasted as they didn't want to see any of them die. Even though they wouldn't truly die, it was better if everybody stayed alive, the reputation they had as the number one team in the region wasn't for nothing after all.
Even though Reign and the others tried to kill the monsters and help out the angels quickly, injuries were unavoidable. One of the angels had a large gash on her left arm as a coyote had managed to swipe its claw at her.
The angels didn't panic, however, such an injury was nothing serious and the girl was still able to move the arm around, albeit with some difficulty.
They were, however, shocked the next moment as a gentle red light suddenly started glowing on the arm. The wound slowly started healing as the bleeding soon stopped, allowing the member of the angels to fight without worry.
The rest were quick to find the source of the healing and were surprised to see that it was Laura. They didn't have a healer as such abilities were incredibly rare to find, to see that one of the members of the Hooligans was a healer was incredibly surprising, especially after they had seen her use a skill to blast apart a monster previously.
"Is there anything these guys can't do?" One of the angels asked as he dodged an attack from a scorpion and slashed at the tail.
"Healing, summoning, long-range attacks, incredible melee capabilities, and one person that can seemingly defend against any type of attack, just who are these people?"
"Well, it does show why they're still considered the number one team after not participating in the previous challenge, every single one of them is a monster." Another member said as she used her spear to deliver a series of stabs that managed to injure the scorpion, making the monster screech in pain before a third member of the group jumped up and started bombarding the monster with her fists.
Mia had stopped moving around so much and had started fighting the monsters for real. The situation had stabilized as the monsters had stopped charging, partly it was thanks to her who managed to aggro a lot of them during the initial confrontation, but a larger part was thanks to Reign and the others who were simply smashing all of them apart.
Shadow was flickering around as his two daggers danced wildly as he slashed apart the monsters, injuring each one heavily before moving on and allowing the others to take them out.
Tank moved slowly and acted as an impenetrable wall as his [ Abyss Shield ] blocked the attacks of 5 monsters simultaneously. The powerful shield barely even shook as the monsters slashed and rammed against it. Occasionally he would use his axe to deliver powerful attacks that would either injure the body of a monster, or sever a limb.
Wolf was running and jumping around wildly as his flaming sword cut monsters apart and made the sand explode each time it hit the ground. The angels were only able to imagine the power it took for him to not only wield such a weapon but to deliver such fast and powerful blows.
Greenie acted in a similar way to Wolf, his hammer was unstoppable as every single swing would break apart the monsters that would scream out in pain before being silenced by more attacks that would claim their lives.
Beast was calmly drawing his arrows and shooting at the monsters, each arrow was reinforced by mana and would pierce through their bodies, creating large wounds and sometimes killing them outright.
His tamed monsters also took on a monster each, clearly suppressing the opponent as they were much more powerful compared to them. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖
As for Reign, he was the one that was at the same time the least and most eye-catching. He was merely walking and slashing monsters that approached him. His two arms seemed to never move, yet each monster that dared attack him was left with heavy injuries, or simply died as it was sliced apart.
Lightning could be seen flickering around him and sometimes he would shoot out lightning spears that would hit the monsters, penetrating through them and shocking them.
The whole battle only took about 2 minutes to be finished. The angels managed to kill a fair share of monsters, but compared to Reign and the others, it was nothing noteworthy. Even Mia had a serious expression as she looked at the group of people that seemed to be unstoppable during the fight.
