166 Reinforcements (1/2)

.....

Hayden closed his eyes and accepted his fate to be the first one to fall on this battle, but when the greatsword on Broken Blades hands was few centimeters away from his head, it unexpectedly came into a sudden halt.

And that made the 'North-Star God: Broken Blade' to frown his brows. It is not that he doesn't want to push his greatsword further, the problem is he can't move it at all even if he wanted to. And when he took a look at his sword properly, he then saw a bunch of thread-like strings restraining and preventing it from moving forward.

And then, he tried to put more strength on his arms and channels more Mana on his sword, but the moment he did that, a bunch of kites(small, rhombus-shaped sharp objects that are tied on a string/thread) suddenly shot up from the ground and tried to pierce his body. Broken Blade immediately abandoned the idea of continuing his attack and quickly retreated backwards, tying to distance himself from those kites.

And when he finally got some breathing space, he finally had a time to take a look at the person that intervened at his attack. It was a hooded figure... No... It was a hooded woman with a stunning body. And she is currently spreading her arms outward, retracting her kites and stings that she had sent earlier.

Bad News!

Those were the words that entered Broken Blade when he saw the woman, or when he saw the type of her weapon rather. It was because this kind of unique weapon only stands for a single thing; and it only means that a group of troublesome people arrived at the battlefield and planning to join the ongoing battle.

To most of the players of the game, production type players are only for doing some random errands and creating some auxiliary items. But the members from powerful guilds treat these lifestyle players differently, especially the upper-echelons. For them these lifestyle players are not some guys that you can trifle with. Because aside from having an ability of crafting some auxiliary items that can affect the market, these guys can also have some fearsome battle abilities that are unknown to most of the players.

And there is this certain lifestyle guild that is currently exploring and walking down on this unique path of battling. At the same time, this guild is currently housing some kind of fearsome lifestyle players that possess some abilities that can even rival some peak class experts.

”Hand of Midas Guild, why the heck are these guys from that Trading Firm arrived at a time like this,” muttered by Broken Blade to himself while looking cautiously at the hooded woman with threads.

Raging Fortress hurriedly turned his head at the direction of that thing and saw that it is a- .... Rocket? Yeah, that's a rocket! He saw a rocket flying straight towards him!

And with that, Raging Fortress immediately raised his round-shield while activating a defensive skill. Then his body was enfolded by a golden light reinforcing his defence.

BOOM!!!

A powerful explosion was created when that rocket landed at Raging Fortress shield, forcing him to take two steps backward to regain his footing while a cloud of smoke covered his surroundings and blocking all of his view. At the same time, 5% of his HP was ripped off by that explosion.

'That was powerful attack. Where did it come from?' thought Raging Fortress while swinging his shield powerfully to clear the cloud of smoke created by the explosion.

But the moment the cloud of smoke was split into two, Raging Fortress saw a hooded person squatting in front of him with a posture that was similar to baseball player when he is standing inside the batter's box and waiting for the pitcher to throw his pitch. But instead of holding baseball bat, this guy on his front is currently holding a huge war-hammer with both of his hands.

And on the next instant, the hooded person powerfully swung his war-hammer at Raging Fortress with further ado. And because the surprise attack was too sudden, the 'Ruined King God' failed to react in time and was sent flying by that powerful swing!

Bang!!!

After throwing the swing, the hooded guy with the war-hammer raised his left hand over his eyes as if covering them from the sunlight as he looked at the direction where he sent Raging Fortress flying.

”Hey! What are you doing? We still have a lot of things that we need to do,” said by the another hooded guy that suddenly appeared beside him. And this guy was holding a mechanical briefcase on his left hand.

”I'm, trying to see if I manafe to hit a homerun,” replied by the hooded guy with a huge war-hammer without removing his eyes at the direction where he sent Raging Fortress.

”Idi*t! Have you seen a baseball player standing at the batter's box after hitting a homerun? You need to start running after that, or at least walk towards the first base to another,” said by the guy with the mechanical briefcase. Then he added after a slight pause. ”Don't let the Young Miss see you slacking off or else you'll be a dead meat later.”

The guy with the war-hammer clicked his tongue and said. ”Tsk! Then how 'bout hav'n a bet with me?”

The other guy looked at him and asked. ”What kind of bet? And what is at stake?”

The war-hammer-guy thought for a moment before replying. ”Hmm... How 'bout competing with the number of kills? Whoever kills the most, wins. As for the price, how 'bout some kind of rare materials? Something that had a rank of (Superior) Black Mithril and above? And five of them at that?”

The other guys immediately nodded his head and agreed. ”Deal! But let's form a contract first.”

Then the two of them signed a contract in the middle of the battlefield as if there is no war going on. After that, the two of them took their battle positions.

Then the first to make a move was the guy with a briefcase. He tossed his mechanical briefcase in front of him after opening it. After that, he stretched his right hand forward, grabbing the opened briefcase, and when his hand managed to hold on it, the mechanical briefcase suddenly transformed into a machinegun that had multiple revolving barrels.

And without further ado, the briefcase-guy pulled the trigger of the machinegun while aiming at the enemies that were coming after them. ”Hahaha... Have a taste of my new invention! The Pandora's Box (Second Form): Gantling Gun!”

What followed after that, were consecutive gunshots, matching the revolving barrels of the machinegun. At the same time, a bunch of consecutive Mana bullets flew towards the incoming enemies, and killing some of them in the process.

Dug-dug! Dug! Dug! Dug! Dug!

When the guy with the huge war-hammer saw that, he couldn't help himself but complain. ”Hey! That is cheating!”

The briefcase-guy laughed at him and said. ”Hahaha... That is your fault for not putting any restriction on the contract earlier,” while putting a Superior Mana Stone on his gutling gun to recharge its power.

The corner of the mouth of the war-hammer-guy suddenly twitched after hearing that. Then he smirked at the other guy and said. ”You asked for it!”

Then he twisted the pole of his war-hammer, dethatching its head form the body and making it to fall on the ground with a loud 'Bang!' sound. After that, he took a long chain from his inventory bag before connecting the head of his hammer and its pole with that chain.

Then he looked at the briefcase and sneered. ”Now let's see what will happen next.”

After that, the war-hammer-guy charged towards the enemy ranks while holding the pole of his hammer on his left land and rotating the chained head of it over his head. Then he threw the chained hammer towards the incoming enemies while laughing out loud. ”Hahaha..... Take this new technique of mine! JUSTICE CRASH!!!”
