Chapter 131: The Advang Pyers

  However, Dragon’s Fury’s charge had already throwy guards into disarray, drawing signifit firepower and allowing the ogres, hobgoblins, and other Dragonkin to advance deeper into the city, preparing for street bat.

  "Now it’s my turn to shine!"

  "Watch me replicate that move!"

  "For every monk’s dream!"

  Many monk pyers attempted to mimic Dragon’s Fury’s tactics, leaping across rooftops to charge forward, but most ended up being skewered like pincushions.

  After all, not everyone could match Dragon’s Fury’s skills. The monks’ frail, unarmored bodies stood no ce against a few well-pced strikes.

  Meanwhile, some pyers took a different approach, opting for unventional strategies.

  Take Charlotte, for example.

  His 【Magic 】 party had uedly weled a druid pyer—"Brother Holy Light."

  Together, the two snuck up to the t city walls, overlooking the massed ranks of city guards below.

  They exged sinister smiles.

  "Brother Holy Light, shift into bear form."

  "Got it."

  Stripped to the waist and glowing with divine light from the waist down, the druid crouched, his body swelling with nature’s magic, transf into a massive bear.

  Charlotte smirked, brandishing his wooden-engraved staff.

  【Enrge】

  The spell caused the druid’s body to grow signifitly.

  As the shimmering magic took hold, Brother Holy Light’s bear form doubled i and grew eight times heavier, t above as a monstrous creature.

  Charlotte raised his staff, pointing at the tightly packed ranks of city guards below, numbering in the hundreds.

  "Brother Holy Light, smash! Smash them hard!"

  "Roar!"

  Brother Holy Light let out a deafening roar.

  Now a-meter-tall, ten-to, he radiated menabsp;

  Below, at the western guard post, Baron Alta rallied his troops for a final charge.

  ornate heavy armor, his expression was one of unyielding resolve, his loyal soldiers gathered tightly around him.

  Alta had been trained as a warrior by the La family since childhood. Renowned for his swordsmanship, he had traveled far and wide in his youth.

  Now, with the nation’s survival at stake, he had rushed from the south to aid Northwind Fortress, determio repay his debt to the La family.

  "Soldiers, it’s time to give your lives!"

  "For the honor of the family!"

  "Defend Northwind Fortress to the death! Stop these invadis!"

  Suddenly, Baron Alta noticed a shadow falling over him, as though something enormous was blog out the sun.

  Instinctively, he looked up, only to see the massive body of the bear desding, filling his field of vision.

  "This is—"

  "Boom!"

  With a thunderous crash, dust and debris erupted.

  When the dust settled, a massive crater marked the ground where Baron Alta and twenty of his elite soldiers had stood, their bodies reduced to indistinct pulp.

  Atop the mound of blood and viscera y a naked male corpse—Brother Holy Light, whose fall damage check had failed.

  Though his transformatioed upoh, the 【Enrge】 effect persisted, leaving his three-meter-tall body as a grotesque mo.

  Surveying the age, Charlotte nodded with satisfa. "Directly smashed the opposing boss to death—Brother Holy Light, your sacrifice was worth it!"

  He opehe pyer forum and messaged Brother Holy Light, aiting to respawn.

  "How much XP and fa tribution did you get?"

  "3,900 XP, 4,000 fa tribution."

  "That much?"

  Charlotte’s eyes widened in envy, his teeth gritting with jealousy, wishing he could trade pces with the corpse below.

  As a guild leader, Charlotte felt flicted—torween pride in his guildmate’s success and envy over the rewards.

  "Let’s keep farming!"

  Charlotte growled.

  Just as he thought this, his interface fshed with a ask notification.

  "Wait, this is—a special mission?"

  ……

  Although pyers were currently capped at level four, they had already begun to make their mark.

  Acc to system standards, most creatures in Erezaghe had no levels at all. Even among armies, only the most seasoned soldiers ted as level one, while units posed of level one professionals were sidered elite.

  Yet here were thousands of level one her pyers, many of them spellcasters—a force to be reed with, even on the sprawling Aa Wastend or throughout all Erezaghe.

  With the public beta 【Northern Storm】, tens of thousands of pyers would flood inthe, making their presence felt worldwide.

  Returning to the present, with pyers joining the fray, Northwind Fortress’s fall was iable.

  Ember ’s forces tiheir relentless advance, crushing the st vestiges of resistand pressing toward the assembly hall.

  However, the La family pyed their final cards. The elite "Eagle Shields" and royal spellcasters provided siderable resistao the Dragonkin’s advanbsp;

  Amid the esg flict, a small covert team maneuvered through the city.

  In a hidden alley of Northwind Fortress, Singo reviewed his task interfabsp;

  【Fa: Ember 】

  【Mission Description: Colborate with Medrosh and Alger to thwart the ceremony. Sy Brad La, and the Lord of Ember will reward you with power and riches.】

  Singo’s voice brimmed with excitement.

  "Duke Brad La, the vampire mentioned only in the background story—this boss is going to be a tough one."

  Summer Night Autumn Rain nodded. "We’d better prepare thhly."

  Born Battle Maniac smirked, rubbing his bald head. "Who cares? We’ll just chop our way through."

  Mantou, his dragon-faced avatar tense, muttered nervously.

  "That task description sounds terrifying. Is this some kind of horror dungeon? I—I’m not good with scary stuff."

  Singo shot him a disdainful look.

  "Coward. Stay back if you’re scared.

  "Even Autumn Rain isn’t fazed. Why are you ag up?"

  Mantou blushed, crossing his arms defensively.

  "Fine, I’m going! Let’s see who’s really scared in the end!"

  Summer Night Autumn Rain sighed, trying to mediate.

  "We probably ’t handle such a big boss on our own. The mission says to coordih Medrosh and Alger. Let’s follow the guidand meet up with them first."
