Chapter 123. The Kobold Hunting Competition (4) (2/2)
The ot closer and closer to the sue Befitting as veterans, they were preparing for a battle
“We orried for nothing Seeether now I can feel the pressure in the air,” the Frost Queen observed
“You’re right I underestimated them But I wonder where the kobolds went?” Seo Jun-Ho asked
They hadn’t seen a single kobold fro, but he hadn’t been able to get anything good The battle from the day before had been too one-sided
“If we can’t get anything, lint from the top of theoff a mirror
‘What is that?’
The moment he stopped and the question popped into his head, confused screams started to erupt around him
“W-Woah!”
“W-what is that?”
He felt so explode under his feet
Rrrrrrrr!
The mountain started to shake violently as if it would collapse at any second
“It’s an earthquake!”
“Dammit, what shi+tty luck…!”
“Didn’t you feel soround just now? Is this… a trap?!”
An earthquake in the h, but some people quickly realized ould happen next and their faces started to turn pale
“W-we have to get down…” an Adventurer whispered
From the front lines, Weaver’s face fell and he shouted, “All forces! Descend the mountain! Immediately!”
Boom!
His voice was lost under a loud explosion The Players’ eyes filled with fear
Rrrrrrrrr!
“A-A landslide…It’s a landslide!”
“Da all the way here!”
“We can’t! We have to hold out!”
“Dig into the ground for cover! That’s the only way!”
It was like a tsunami on land A wave of earth started to flood doard the speeds
Their forces numbered 671, but that only made it worse Their screams echoed as they started to trip over themselves and bump shoulders
“Contractor!”
“shi+t”
Seo Jun-Ho bit his bottoined this kind of situation
‘You’re tellingthis kind of trap?’
No one could have predicted this Even a Player of Seo Jun-Ho’s level needed time to prepare an artificial landslide
‘Wait, time to prepare…’
He realized that they had been bamboozled
The kobolds in the Hainal Mountains had been quiet for the past few months, but it wasn’t because they were scared They had been waiting for a mon
‘It’s the saht’
There was no need to risk it when they had a more surefire way to win
“Barrier”
Woosh!+
The es started to activate barriers in preparation for the inco impact
But it made no difference…
Crack!
Froes had started to cast spells Four kobold h the continuous rush of dirt, trees, and rocks
Craaaack!
Their fireballs exploded on thethe e to outsmart us?”
“This makes no sense They play dirty, but they shouldn’t be able to use tactics of this level!”
“That’s not what you should be worried about right now! Everyone gather here!”
“How the hell is the barrier supposed to block the landslide?! Dig! We have to dig!”
The Players and Adventurers quickly started to gather into sether and crawled inside the holes they !” soroup, but round, so only a few of them were swept away
“Contractor! You can’t hide underground!”
“I know That’ll only delay the inevitable”
It would take a considerable a out of the hole even once the landslide passed In fact, he could even die if he ran out of oxygen
‘And uys won’t just stay still…’
On the su their weapons, ready for battle Once the landslide passed, they would start to kill those crawling out of the ground
“Contractor!” the Frost Queen yelled
Noas the time to make his choice…
‘There are three options’
First, he could use Watchguard of Darkness and Shadow Step to avoid the impact Or, he could use Frost to shi+eld himself from the landslide However, either option would require him to reveal one of his skills
‘But…’
Seo Jun-Ho bit down on his lip and decided to go with the final option Even as he ht choice
“Someone has to remain and stop the blood kobolds…”
Otherwise, their group would be ht about it, there was only one person who could do that
“Booster”
It was Seo Jun-Ho himself
