164 The Crash (1/2)

”Pom—!”

A black Giant wielded a huge Hammer and crushed the Eternal Fire troop formation into disarray like a wolf deep into a herd of sheep. He used his brute force to destroy everything in his path.

TakeASpearHit looked at the black Giant swinging his Hammer and turned to say to his companions, ”I think our chance to become famous has come. Arthur used a trap to kill a Large Lizard and became famous. If I can kill a Giant on the battlefield, I will be prominent!”

”You are out of your mind. How do you kill the Giant? By using the GM account?”

SealHeadLingChong was knocked to the ground by a red-skinned monster after he finished speaking. Dragonborn pulled him up quickly.

”What do you know?” TakeASpearHit shouted excitedly,

”Did you see the single eye of the Giant? A monster like him has a weakness in the eye. I can't remember in which fable, but Kratos killed a single-eyed Giant using this method! My plan is simple!”

TakeASpearHit pointed at the distant Giant and shouted, ”When the Giant smashes down his Hammer, I'll use my acute senses to predict the Hammer's location. Then I'll climb up to his head via the Hammer and give the single eye a fatal stab! Then I'll become the battlefield hero.”

Dragonborn and SealHeadLingChong were puzzled after TakeASpearHit finished shouting.

”Are you daydreaming?” SealHeadLingChong asked.

”D*mn, you have no aspirations. I'll do it alone!”

TakeASpearHit yelled himself hoarse as he charged at the Giant.

The gamers' formation was close to the formation of the NPCs in order to maintain a consistent front line. There was only a small gap between the two formations.

Crossing this gap became the first obstacle to TakeASpearHit completing his plan.

Before they thought of how to solve the problem, tens of Magic Cannon shells flew in an arc above their heads and landed.

”Boom—!”

It was another series of carpet bombings that killed all the monsters in the gap.

”Take action now!” TakeASpearHit yelled and bashed through the red-skinned monsters and gamers in front of him. He brought along the gaping Dragonborn and SealHeadLingChong as they charged forward.

The Eternal Fire deputy commander, Fishballs, fired a long-barreled gun continuously at the Black Giant. If the Airship at the forefront hadn't fired its cannons and decimated the enemy at their rear, the army of Eternal Fire, whose formation was in disarray, would be suffering massive casualties.

”Brace yourselves! Don't let that Ancient Giant move forward!”

Fishballs felt three figures dart past him just as he finished yelling. He noticed the green words above their heads. They were Gnome warriors from Eternal Kingdom!

”Give way. That Giant's mine!”

TakeASpearHit held his Short Sword with determination and charged towards the Giant.

Fishballs was stunned. Before he could stop them, the three Gnomes had dashed forward.

”Wait! What are you doing?” Fishballs yelled after the back views of the three Gnomes.

TakeASpearHit turned his head and struggled to give an evil smile, but the Gnome's anatomy didn't allow him to do that. He said calmly, ”We're killing the Giant, you imbecile NPC.”

Fishballs was dumbstruck as he witnessed the Gnome dash at the Giant.

TakeASpearHit grasped his Short Sword tightly and dashed towards the raised Hammer.

Now!

TakeASpearHit braced against the falling Hammer and was crushed flat.

”Shucks! This silly dude!” SealHeadLingChong cursed and saw a Gnome run up the Hammer.

Dragonborn held onto the edge of the Hammer and was lifted up together with the Hammer.

That sudden acceleration almost made Dragonborn lose his grip.
