Chapter 257: Huntings Time - Part 3 (1/2)
Aren's jaw dropped in shock as he witnessed twelve parties, two Emerald Rank and ten Platinum Rank were destroyed by one person.
Firstly, thunder rained down the area, the big area, and the strong spell took down more than half of the adventurers. Not all of them died from the thunder, but most of them could no longer fight after the thunder struck them down.
For the surviving adventures, they were busy avoiding or blocking the thunder. Despite the numerical advantage, the adventurers could do nothing to the man who just stood on his original spot.
Aren's Magnifying Glass never left Tang Shaoyang. He then noticed the man transformed again. The lightning cloak disappeared, the man grew taller, his skin turned green, and his muscle bulked up. The transformation brought a huge change, and now Tang Shaoyang was over two meters tall.
'As I thought, Mage was not his class, but what kind of class is that?' He questioned himself.
”Should we retreat?” The archer Coral could not help but ask Aren. Looking at the situation, there was no need for them to wait longer. It was their loss, the man was far stronger than they thought to be.
”We will watch the fight for a bit longer. Gathering more information about this man, we can sell this information to the party who wants to take the quest. We can get the compensation for the time we wasted here by selling the information,” Aren replied without looking back at Coral.
”Are you sure about this? What if that man finds our location too?” Karen was worried. Of course, after witnessing what that man could do with his power, the thing she wanted was to leave this place immediately and get to a safe place.
”It's okay, we are too far for him to notice. Moreover, Poli has set the traps and secured our path to retreat,” Aren waved his hand, dismissing Karen's concern.
A pitch-black scythe appeared in the man's hand. It magically appeared in his hand, it was not something created by lightning like the sword before. It meant it was something he had with him, but how?
'A skill? Or it's an advanced storage bag?' Aren was guessing what happened with his limited knowledge.
While his thoughts were wandering around, the figure in the Magnifying Glass flashed. His pupils shook as he could not track where Tang Shaoyang went. Before, he would leave a trail of lightning behind so Aren easily followed his movement through the Magnifying Glass.
He moved the Magnifying Glass, it took him some time to track the man. Tang Shaoyang was standing amidst three Platinum Rank Adventurers, and he easily sliced them apart with the scythe.
After this, Tang Shaoyang did not use the movement skill but just rushed to the other adventurers.
”What was that just now? A skill? I am pretty sure that was a skill,” Aren was confident with his judgment. The more he watched the fight he discovered the gap between him and the man was bigger than he thought.
”Evan is coming for him,” Coral noticed a quick movement chasing Tang Shaoyang from the side. Evan was not alone, an archer and a mage followed him closely. Thanks to [Greater Sight], his vision covered a big area, and easily noticed Evan's movement from afar.
Evan was wearing plate heavy armor and a greatsword in his right hand. Despite the heavy equipment, Evan's movement was not hindered by the weight. His movement also made the least sound so the opponent won't notice him.
”He stops– He rushes toward us now, Evan!” Nina the Mage reported, ”He's ahead of us, thirty meters!”
”How does he spot us?” Evan could not believe they were being spotted easily like this. Ahead of him were thick and tall bushes, he could not see the target but his friends told him the target was heading toward them. He could not think how the man spotted them, ”Brent! Nina! Get ready in your position!”
