Chapter 158 Rescue operation (5)

"I wonder if Kain is okay..."

Mera whimpered, worry evident in her eyes.

Mera trusted Kain's ability to act more than anyone else, but that didn't mean she didn't worry about his safety.

She also knew that Kain had pushed Leo and Katie back to rest, so he was acting alone at this moment.

This is even more worrying.

Just as Mera was lost in thought, she saw Hector leading three other students over.

In Kain's design, The three of them, Hector, Mera, and Myra, would be connected together in a chain. When Kain led people to Hector, Hector would lead people to Mera, and Mera would lead people to Myra. This would give them a short and fixed route, avoiding getting lost, and they could quickly return to their original location without delay.

However, Mera quickly realized that the three men Hector brought were unusual.

Most noticeable was their arms tied with cloth.

"Hector, what's going on? What are these people?"

Mera whispered to Hector, who shook his head, only able to speak vaguely.

"Kain only said to keep these people locked up."

"Locked them?"

Mera was surprised.

But while the two of them were talking, one of the three tied up students seemed to have smelled an opportunity to run away.

He didn't dare to unleash magic, because unless he had overwhelming strength, when he was casting magic, other Magus would sense it.

Besides, they had indeed exhausted their energy in the process of resisting the Crawler.

So, he just wanted to run away.

This guy didn't even bother to alert the other two, because he thought that doing so could buy him some more time.

However, this small movement could not escape Mera's eyes.

As soon as the other guy took a step back, Mera's eyes were fixed on him.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Before anyone could react, Mera's whip swung out and hit the leg of the fleeing man. Her arm exerted a little force, causing him to fall to the ground.

"You go back to your position, let me handle these people."

Mera waved her hand at Hector. But Hector, for some reason, was very afraid of her, so he ran away upon hearing that.

…

At the same time, Kain led the male student closer to the base where more than twenty students gathered.

The reason Kain brought him along was because Kain wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble in communication.

And he was right, this place was indeed a fierce battlefield.

The magic exploded without stopping, pushing back the Crawler army or even the Nightcrawler who had entered. The monsters wanted to try attacking from another route, but the food storage was designed to be much more sturdy than normal structures. That left the Crawler army with no choice but to forcefully attack. Discover stories with empire

And here, Kain finally learned how terrifying the monsters here were.

Up to a hundred Crawlers surrounded the food storage so tightly that no one could see their way in, and there were five different Nightcrawlers attacking from five different places.

Seeing this scene, the male student, despite having experienced many things, felt numb.

People like them had previously mostly tried their hand at small-sized Dungeons, or at most medium-sized Dungeons. There, it was extremely rare to see several hundred powerful monsters gathering together.

But in a large-sized Dungeon, and an extremely dangerous large-sized Dungeon like this, several hundred monsters gathered in just a small corner.

Faced with a situation like this, even Kain had to respond carefully.

"Stick closely with me, don't fall behind."

"Understand?"

Hearing Kain's voice, the male student nodded unconsciously, his head still covered in sweat.

Actually, in this case, Kain's options weren't many.

And he chose to force the attack!

Kain leaped out of his hiding place, lightning spreading around him like crazy, completely turning the world around him into a giant cloud of electricity. A lightning net was formed with Kain at the center, quickly wiping out a large portion of the monsters.

The male student almost couldn't catch up. He had previously thought that [Fire Magic] was Kain's limit, but who would have thought that his [Thunder Magic] was his true trump card.

[Thunder Summon].

[Thunder Bullet].

Countless [Thunder Bullets] were created and released, freely firing in all directions, the Crawler kept falling down without even having time to react. The Crawler's sharp claws that could pierce through iron armor couldn't reach Kain, the tough skin that could block swords couldn't stop the lightning. The area around Kain had completely turned into a dead zone, where anything that moved and entered couldn't move anymore.

However, there are exceptions.

Kain's presence attracted the attention of the Nightcrawlers, up to five Nightcrawlers at once. But it seemed that the students holding out inside had realized that reinforcements were coming, so they desperately held back the Nightcrawlers.

Their efforts were somewhat successful as three Nightcrawlers were held back, but the two closest Nightcrawlers still charged towards Kain.

"Damn it! This damn thing again!"

The male student behind Kain almost screamed, the fear in his eyes pouring out uncontrollably.

It was only natural, facing a monster that had both superior magic resistance and such overwhelming physical strength, Magus' fear was not something too difficult to accept.

The male student looked towards Kain, worried that he would retreat as the two giant figures approached. However, all he saw was Kain's calm back.

Along with that were two giant [Thunder Spear] shots.

As soon as the two Nightcrawlers entered suitable range, Kain unleashed [Thunder Spear].

The blinding light from the thunder seemed to have completely covered up the fog. And with a deafening boom, the two Nightcrawlers' gigantic bodies collapsed, followed by the shattered bodies of many other Crawlers around them.

All is reflected in Kain's pupils.
