Chapter 102 - (102) Fighting The Horde (1/2)

Geth watched as flames and electricity burst in the distance. The loud noises caused a majority of the Zombies to turn their heads.

In unison, the creatures shifted their bodies and shuffled towards the light. They had the speed of an average human back on Earth.

He had to wait for the majority to shuffle by to find a clear path to the center. He could already see the experience rolling in from the girls' rampage.

Aside from the Sub-Boss in their direction, the rest hadn't made a move. Geth still couldn't see any sign of a Boss.

Using Inspection, he could see that the Mana was acting wildly. Instead of floating calmly along, it rushed back or forth through the air.

Albus was currently inspecting it as well. Other than the strange movement, nothing seemed out of place.

He turned his attention back to the mobs. The once densely packed area was now only sparsely saturated with the monsters.

Looking towards where the action was taking place, it seemed as if the Zombies were trying to crawl over one another to get closer. Geth was glad that he'd buffed everyone with Defense before separating.

'Hopefully, on the next Inspection upgrade, I'll be able to see a creature's base Attributes.' Even without that ability, he estimated most of the Zombies' Strengths were less than 25.

'With the bonus Defense on top of their gear, they should only be taking 2-10 damage per hit. With the health potions, they will be safe for some time.'

He nodded and then moved from the trees. He had cast the Agility version of Mass Blessing onto himself.

Geth moved between the gravestones and headed straight towards the center. His destination was still a ways off when the two Sub-Bosses came into view.

:Raised Forsaken, Lvl 35 (Sub-Boss); HP- 32,761/36,000

Raised Forsaken, Lvl 35 (Sub-Boss); HP- 33,248/36,000:

'Something has damaged these in the past. It looks like even the Sub-Bosses of the Zombie class can't regenerate health,' Geth thought to Albus.

The creatures were lofty, but they were still shorter than the Hobgoblins. These Forsaken stood around 8 feet tall.

They didn't really have any impressive features, either. Their bodies were just stitched together parts from different races.

The only thing common between them was the sewed on human heads. Their bodies comprised bits of Goblin, Human, Lizardman, and Orc.

Neither were holding weapons nor did they have an MP bar. It looked like the only means for damage were the hooked claws embedded in their fists.

Geth was planning on simply monitoring them while they just stood there. There would be no reason to approach if they weren't heading towards the rest of the party.

He tucked himself behind a gravestone and looked on Albus' pages. A new page had been introduced that allowed him to keep an eye on the party's status.

Of course, it wasn't anything special. The Grimoires were just keeping each other updated.

Still, it made Geth more comfortable when splitting up. Due to the range, it was slightly delayed, but it was still better than nothing.
