Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master-Chapter 69 Soul
When he arrived at the battlefield, Isaac saw his monsters being beaten back by the human soldiers. They were bombarded with hot bullets, every part of their bodies and organs splattered on the grass. The scene he witnessed looked more like a massacre than a battle.
Yet, Isaac grinned from behind his mask.
He ordered all his monster warriors to charge forward. Five thousand beasts roared, shaking the air, before they finally dashed over the sloping plains overgrown with grass.
On the other hand, the human soldiers felt the ground shaking. They quickly looked for the source of the sound. Instantly, their eyes opened wide while looking at thousands of monsters with ugly forms rushing from the highlands.
"Watch out! The second wave of attacks is coming!"
They stopped chasing after the retreating swarms of monsters. Instead of running away, they held their position and pointed their weapons at the enemies. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
"You stupid monsters, you want to die, huh? This is no longer an ancient weapon."
They were confident in their newest weapon. Recently, HFD had developed the latest sophisticated weapons. It had been tested to kill various kinds of monsters that came out of the dungeons in Russia.
When the monster warriors led by Isaac approached, the human army quickly pulled the trigger.
"Uraaaaaa!"
Tratatatat! Tratatatatta!
Thousands of hot bullets came out of the muzzle of the weapon. They shot alternately, so they had time to recharge.
The bullets shot at high speed towards thousands of monsters. They believed that the monsters would be wiped out in seconds.
However, the opposite happened.
No matter how many bullets their guns spewed out, the monsters that had been shot rose to their feet again after falling to the ground. It was as if thousands of bullets that had pierced them only scratched against their bodies, not stabbed them. As time went on, the monsters drew closer, and the faces of the soldiers began to darken.
"Blyat! They're coming!"
As the monsters arrived at the vanguard of the human army, the gunshots began to be replaced by screams.
"Kuaaaggkk!"
Splat! Splat! Splatt!
The monsters went on a rampage. The lycans tore apart human bodies with their nails. A flock of chupacabra bit and ripped the stomach, expelling the organs of the humans. The lizard warriors slashed the humans into two pieces.
Within seconds, the situation changed drastically.
Isaac didn't miss the chance either. He shot the human soldiers who were trying to escape. The bear that he was riding also killed dozens of humans with its claws.
[You got 340 zenny!]
[You got 354 zenny!]
[You got 345 zenny!]
[You got 378 zenny!]
[...]
Notification sounds and human screams kept ringing in his head.
'Anatoly made good use of the skill scrolls I gave him.'
All of this could not be separated from the intervention of Marshal Anatoly, the highest commander in HFD. Isaac ordered him to arm the HFD troops with modified weapons. The modern projectile weapons they used would deal minimal damage when dealing with beast-type monsters. The low-level beasts—between levels 5 and 15—would still be killed. However, when dealing with the high-level monsters, the weapon would be completely useless.
The example was what had happened right now, the HFD troops were massacred. No matter how many bullets were fired, the monsters still continued to slaughter the humans indiscriminately.
"Kuaaaak!"
The number of HFD troops began to reduce. They slowly retreated, while still shooting at the monsters.
Dozens of soldiers died every ten seconds.
Splat! Splat! Splat!
"Kuagh!"
However, their hope was still not completely lost.
The reinforcements were coming. Hundreds group of black uniformed troops also coloured the battlefield. And they didn't just carry empty hopes. Gradually, they were able to suppress the monsters to the back.
There appeared a group of soldiers who were able to find the weakness of the monsters. Instead of using rifles, they used melee weapons. Thanks to them, the flow of the battle slowly returned to balance. The human army began to show superiority.
Isaac smiled broadly.
'Hahaha… this is getting more and more interesting.'
His attention was fixed on one of the humans. An old soldier who looked like a veteran. It seemed he was in his 50s.
The old soldier was seen leading a group of troops, breaking through the monster defenses. He fought aggressively, armed only with a dagger. Isaac was sure that the old soldier had not used his 'skill' at all.
What attracted Isaac to the human so much was the status information the man had.
<Information>
[Name: Ivan Fedorov]
[Race: Human]
[Type: N/A]
[Class: S]
[Level: 38]
If it was another Demon Lord, they would definitely kill him. An S-class human at his current level could at least give them 1000 zenny.
However, Isaac was different.
'Huhuhu… I'm so lucky to find another high-quality human. He even exceeds Guo Chen and Wang Mei's potential. How come I've never seen him before?'
Isaac kept an eye on the movement of the old soldier with his men. As their distance drew closer, he quickly shot eight of their men. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m
'Let's see what skills he has.'
Bang! Bang! Bang!
[You got 322 zenny!]
[You got 340 zenny!]
[...]
After Isaac killed Fedorov's men, anger started to flicker on his face. The electric sparks began to appear, and not long after that, the thunder bolts came out of his body and struck in various directions.
Blast! Blast! Blast!
Isaac's eyes opened wide at the sight. The monsters around him died in a charred state.
'Wow! Incredible!'
Then, Fedorov gathered a large amount of lightning in his body. He seemed to be taking steps.
Isaac knew what happened next.
'Oh… here it is.'
In the blink of an eye, Fedorov suddenly stood in front of Isaac. In the old man's hand, there was a flaring thunderbolt.
But Isaac didn't lose when it came to speed.
In that brief moment, he shot off his mount. Fedorov's attack landed on the white bear, causing a violent explosion of lightning. The glint blinded the eye for a moment, then a barrage of thunderbolts struck the surrounding monsters.
Blast! Blast! Blast!
At least fifty monsters were killed by the explosion.
After launching the deadly strike, Fedorov looked pale, and his body was covered in sweat. His face grew paler when he saw his opponent's condition, standing straight, without any scars or damage.
Not a single attack landed on Isaac's body.
"No way," Fedorov muttered.
The attack earlier wasn't his best, but it had consumed half the mana in his body at least.
"The Lieutenant has opened the way, there are no monsters protecting the Alpha! Attack!"
Suddenly, one of his men, a female soldier with a tomboy appearance, took the initiative to attack. She sped off with forty-nine comrades.
Fedorov shouted, ordering them to retreat, but they were already in front of the target.
Isaac chuckled.
'Oh, there seems to be a miscommunication. This is an opportunity to test the man further.'
Fifty soldiers in black uniforms surrounded Isaac from various directions, then various attacks shot at him.
Slash! Slash! The slash of the fiery sword blade shot out!
Bam! Bam! Bam! The swing of the warhammer and axe hit the ground!
Tratatattt! Trarartaat! Thousands of bullets came out of the mouth of the gun!
Meanwhile, their target seemed to stand still and didn't move in the slightest. Isaac just stood like a statue, but no matter which direction and how many attacks came, none of them could hit her
"I-impossible…" Fedorov felt horrified when he witnessed that.
Then, Fedorov's platoon stopped attacking.
"Damn it! What exactly is that monster?! He wasn't hurt in the slightest." One of the mohawk-haired soldiers exclaimed.
Isaac drew the two dual pistols holstered at his waist and aimed at the enemies.
"Retreat!" Fedorov exclaimed.
Unfortunately, the warning was too late.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Splat! Splat! Splat!
"No!"
Every single trigger being pulled, one life was lost. The elite HFD troops turned into lifeless lumps of flesh. Their blood splattered in the air, then fell onto the green grass like raindrops.
Fedorov became hysterical, brimming with emotions after seeing one by one his men die.
"HUAAAAH!"
Fedorov was in a rage. His body suddenly emitted a lightning spike on a massive scale. Lightning flashed everywhere, even human soldiers were affected.
"Back off! Everyone, back off!"
The remnants of Fedorov's men quickly retreated. Of course, this made Isaac feel unhappy.
'Tch! I have to end this ASAP. It can't be helped. I have to use the new skill—Soul Taker!'
Isaac was wearing the Strange Pendant. His stats changed quickly.
[ Strength : 50 (150) ]
[ Magic : 150 (50) ]
[ Constitution : 66 (113)]
[ Dexterity : 83 (66) ]
[ Perception : 80 ]
Fedorov shot up at high speed, grabbing Isaac. The grass he crossed was on fire.
Swooosh! Swooosh! Swooosh!
He shot several times, creating lines that cut through each other as the grass burned. The dagger in his hand barely scratched Isaac's skin countless times.
"Ugh!"
Then, Isaac managed to catch Fedorov, right by the neck. The old man tried to break free, emitting violent lightning. Isaac then tightened his grip.
"Yes, go berserk with all your might. We are still on a different level."
His other hand turned into a shadow. Then, he punched the human stomach writhing in his grip.
"Keeeeughh…"
Fedorov fainted. Then, the lightning instantly went out and his face turned deathly pale.
A shield came out of the human body.
'Oh, it turns out that your soul is in the shape of a shield. Interesting.'
A smirk appeared on his lips.
'If I pull it out, you'll die. It's a shame to throw you away.'
Isaac then returned Fedorov's soul to his body. His face was colored again. The demon laid the unconscious human on the ground.
Meanwhile, the soldiers were seen running away from the battlefield after seeing Fedorov being defeated.
"The head has been cut off. It's time to take care of the tail."
Isaac called out to his monsters to catch up with the human army that was trying to escape. The monsters roared, then moved on to do their job.
The night was still long, and the battle was still on.
