World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 654 - 494: Sizar’s Diary (Two in One)

Iron Armor Spell, a purely defensive skill.

Completing the Dark Energy Formula requires consuming 100 points of Dark Energy; an average person, once using it, can withstand attacks from hot weapons at close range.

However, this skill is powerful in immediate defense but lacks endurance.

It doesn’t function like the Constitution Enhancement that, once activated, remains effective continuously for an hour.

Instead, its effect weakens gradually after a certain number of uses until it vanishes.

The specific number of attacks it can withstand changes depending on the damage incurred.

At this moment, Weiss was caught in a fierce battle.

The effect of the Iron Armor Spell on his body, being triggered repeatedly, began to weaken gradually.

"Swoosh!"

Another streak of cold light flashed by, and a monster ambushed him, clawing a huge wound on his back.

"Damn it! The Iron Armor Spell has worn off! Mikel, you gotta run, I’ll cover your retreat!"

Weiss shouted loudly to his teammate nearby.

At his side, several mutants had already surrounded him.

At the start of the fight, there were only five, but more kept coming as they fought.

By now, the number of monsters around him had increased to seven, even after he had just forcefully killed three.

This was different from Beelu’s situation back at the Home Apartment.

Initially, Beelu had the advantage of terrain, merely needing to hold a narrow door frame in front, always only facing one enemy.

Moreover, he had the members of Hurricane Team next to him helping to push furniture to block the path.

It truly was a case of one man holding the pass against ten thousand enemies.

Currently, however, the environment Weiss found himself in was extremely unfavorable; in this dense forest, the monsters moved through it as naturally as fish through water.

Ambushes, encirclements, and aggressive assaults were overwhelming.

Weiss constantly faced the attacks of several monsters at once and had to be vigilant against stealth attacks from the shadows.

Furthermore, having to protect Mikel, even as a top Hunter who had activated Constitution Enhancement among other statuses, still found himself entrenched in a difficult fight.

Seizing an opportunity, Weiss pounced on a monster and then grappled with it.

Rolling about, he swung several heavy punches and forcefully burst the creature’s head.

"Bang!"

Not far away, a gunshot from a sniper rifle rang out.

A mutant ready to take advantage of the situation was hit, its headless body falling to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Huff, huff, huff~"

Weiss gasped for breath, his face now covered in blood.

Both his own and that of the monsters, appearing extraordinarily ferocious.

The automatic rifle in his hands had long been emptied of bullets, and the small dagger he carried lacked any significant killing power.

Against these monsters, which would not die unless their heads were completely destroyed, the dagger posed no threat.

He was now somewhat envious of the abilities used by the Awakeners within the organization.

If a true Awakener were here, they could easily summon a Mystic Weapon to deal with these monsters, which would be incredibly suitable.

Unfortunately, all he could do now was to think about it, and not even this simple thought had time to develop.

After all, the surrounding battle situation was tense; he could not afford to be distracted.

"Ciro! Watch out! Two creatures are headed your way! One from your three o’clock and the other from your nine o’clock!"

Weiss’s eyes sparkled with a silvery light, revealing the movements of two monsters to his teammate.

Not long after he spoke, a strong explosion sounded from where Ciro was.

Two mutants planning to launch an ambush hit one of Anna’s traps and exploded into pieces.

At this time, Mikel had already regrouped with two other teammates. Wis, seeing this, finally let out a sigh of relief and then, opening his arms wide, yelled at the surrounding mutants:

"Hey! You bastards! The grandpa here is leaving now, come chase me if you dare! Don’t hide behind trees like scared turtles!"

Of course, the monsters couldn’t understand his words.

However, upon seeing him give up the fight and sprint wildly in a direction, they instinctively chased after him.

In an instant, dozens of shadows shot out.

Clearly, many who had been hiding behind trees finally showed themselves.

The monsters were very fast; their slender legs, coupled with running on all fours, allowed them to easily catch up with Weiss.

It was an advantage of their physique.

Weiss managed several dramatic dodges, avoiding attacks from behind.

He himself accidentally fell, his body almost resorting to running on all fours as well.

"Be careful! They’re coming! Anna! Everything depends on this! It’s all on you now!"

Elsewhere, Anna hid under a large tree, with a device filled with detonation buttons placed before her.

Sweat beaded on her forehead as her gaze, through the thermal imager, was fixed intensely on the direction from which Weiss was running.

Although the thermal imaging couldn’t detect the mutants, she could determine the monsters’ locations by tracking Weiss, aiming for a lethal strike.

"Now! Detonate!"

Finally, as Weiss ran past the detonation zone, the group of monsters followed closely behind.

Upon receiving the order, Anna’s hands swiftly manipulated the device before her.

Accompanied by her actions, a series of explosions erupted through the forest.

Instantly, from near to far, inside out, all the chasing mutants, one by one, were blown into piles of minced meat.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

The deafening sound of explosions reverberated through the entire forest, even reaching Hachitu Tuur Town several kilometers away.
