Chapter 225 - The Guardian And The First Necromancer (II) (2/2)
”Guys, let's lure the boss. I have a plan.”
”Care to explain?” Dolly asked.
”I will explain while we lure it, we can't just keep ourselves standing here. Iron, trigger your taunting skill and run with us!”
”Alright, Brother!”
Iron raised his shield and raise it up in the air. A thumping sound can be heard on his shield several times. While the thumping sound can be heard, the Stone Cutter Puppet started to face in our direction and made its machine sound.
VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...
”Alright, I already attracted its attention! Now what?”
”RUN!” And I started running followed by my followers.
”Hey! Wait for us!” Dolly and the others also started running.
And as expected, the Stone Cutter Puppet followed us with its whirring sound coming from the rotating blades. All of the trees that the Stone Cutter Puppet passed by were all reduced to dust as it acted like a sawmill. reducing all of the logs to dust.
”Holy, sh*t, holy sh*t!!!” Iron cursed more as he is the very last guy being chased. As a fully armored guy, his Agility is compromised a lot in exchange for defense. To help him with his predicament, I opened my skill panel, opened the skill tree of the Alchemist, and selected the Tier 2 ability before purchasing it.
I held out my hand and a bottle of red liquid appeared on my hands before throwing it to Iron.
CRASH!
”Huh?” Iron didn't expect something to crash on his armor. But then, he felt lighter in movement and he quickly managed to catch up from the rest of us. He then saw an alert on his interface which must be the notice for receiving the buff.
”What did you just throw earlier, Bladeheart?”
”It's one of the abilities of the Alchemist class, [Bottle of Haste]. With its name, you can already guess its effects. Since we are already running fast, I don't need to throw a few bottles to us, only Iron needs it since his agility is pretty much nonexistent with his heavy armor.”
We continue to let the Stone Cutter Pupper chase us while we lead the former around the ruins where trees were growing.
”So what is the real reason you want us to do this?” Dolly asked.
”See how the boss is destroying the trees on the path and reducing them to a pile of dust? That is our key. That way, we can use an aerial fight against this guy.”
Dolly quickly realized my intentions and grinned, now motivated to run. As an athletic girl that does marathons at school, she does not get easily tired.
We did multiple laps around the ruins until a large amount of the forest around the ruins was reduced to dust. Now, the moon that shines in the sky is now plainly shining up above the sky.
”Alright! Time to fight back! We are now going in for the kill!”
In a single snap, Leona appeared in the sky and swoop down the Stone Cutter Puppet down to the ground.
