Solo Cultivation in The Apocalypse

Chapter 105 Invasion: The Guardian Phoenix Dungeon

A slender, slim body frame, one that of a teenager. Flast chest but she was gifted with beautiful curves in the right places. Her bluish-white hair was styled in a beautiful flower crown hairstyle-- she wore a flower crown-- that reached her bubble butt.

Her flat chest heaved up and down with every deep breath she took. Eimi the Queen of Elves pulled her hand down, her blue eyes did not leave the Akh's sight.

Uragi stared at the beautiful lady covered in a white dress that was designed with light blue splashes around the borders of the one-piece. She closed her eyes and turned around with a swing of her dress' tail.

Akh raised its head and let out a deep howl. Eimi stopped and glanced at her predator once, 'Oh forgive me, I forgot you were still here.' She knew she could not communicate with the Orca-wolf hybrid, so she thought to herself.

Eimi turned around, gulped, and raised her hand once again. She killed Lut and the last Akhitar in the flow of anger so when she looked at Ahk-- whose drool was reaching its claws-- she could not muster up the courage anymore.

Akh glared at Eimi and growled. Eimi gulped, she did not break her eye contact with Akh; although she was scared to the bottom of her heart.

Uragi did not dare to step in between them and neither did anyone of his men. Kuzu rubbed the imaginary sweat off his forehead, he pulled down his hood and ordered:

"Gigi, your wave may advance through the dungeon and meet up with Uragi's wave," Kuzu said.

"Yes, sir," Gigi said, pulling his TeamSpeak walkie-talkie down.

"And..." Kuzu continued, "look out for traps."

Gigi paused, "Hm. Yes, Kuzu-san." Gigi equipped himself with his air cannon, "Guys! Advance!"

His men silently crossed the icy entrance and entered the Yuki lair. The audience knew the trio couldn't protect their Yuki lair anymore.

"What now?"

"She will be killed... I just hope not brutally," Magus said.

"Dude, she looks powerful though," his new friend said.

Magus turned to his friend, "Being powerful does not mean you have forgotten fear," Magus said, "a tiger knows it should not mess with a human unless, of course, it discovers a human's vulnerability."

"So the Akhlut is the tiger here?"

Magus unfolded his arms and nodded, "A tiger, after discovering a human's vulnerability, will suddenly lose the fear and realize these evolved apes are so easy to hunt."

His friend chuckled, and Magus scoffed, "And the Queen Elf is the 'human'"

Akh licked the drool off its lower jaw. It opened its mouth wide-- revealing the sharp three inches long teeth-- and roared. Akh jerked towards Eimi.

Eimi opened her palm, chanted a spell in Elvish language and a beam of blue light emerged from her palm.

Not this time, Akh dodged the beam,  climbed the icy hill, and got closer to Eimi.

She pulled her hand back and chanted another spell. In a flash, a lot of icicle spears flew across the floor.

The spears did not even touch Akh but they pierced through two players' chests for sure.

Akh's claws shattered the ice that had formed a hill on whose top stood Eimi with a frown on her face.

Akh climbed closer to Eimi with every passing moment and yet Eimi's attacks could not damage it.

Then she used ice spikes which Akh dodged again with ease but the men behind it got hurt when spikes entered every part of their part.

It was a Hopeless Case. Eimi clicked her tongue and turned around.

shot.

Arrows and bullets stopped her from moving. Eimi knew a spell from the 'Secret Elven Magic' scroll, an invisible shield that protected her from attacks only for a limited time. Kamiya used a few thousand yen to increase the time limit-- he was impressed by the Elven Magic Shield on his very first encounter with Eimi.

"Kill her!" Uragi was annoyed by the fact that his men were killed and all his unit did was watch the Akhlut perform its deadly kill.

Uragi's snipers took their positions, his assassins disappeared in the thin air, and Uragi's samurai ran towards the ice hill-- still afraid of Akh.

Eimi ignored the stupid humans and slid down the other side of the hill. She closed her eyes and chanted a spell. Suddenly, a wall of ice formed around her to defend against Akh's attacks.

The bullets and arrows made things hard for her, her wall's durability was decreasing constantly. Eimi searched for the shooters.

From the side of the ice wall, she raised her slender skinny finger and pointed at a sniper's head.

Before the sniper could pull the trigger, a spike penetrated his head. He dropped down on his sniper with a bolt of ice in his head.

Eimi's long ear twitched. She hurried and pulled her hand straight in front of her.

An assassin's body became visible. He looked down at the Elf's tiny hand with wide eyes-- how?! he demanded.

She muttered and crystal ice formed on the assassin's stomach. Quickly, it spread all over his torso.

Eimi pulled herself back, lifted her leg, and landed a hard kick in the assassin's chest.

The ice shattered like glass, Eimi slid away from the site and turned back to kick another assassin that had appeared out of thin air, again.

She went for the side of her one-piece cloth and pulled out a sharp dagger.

She jumped forward. She fell on the assassin and her dagger went inside his chest like penetrating butter.

On impact with the ground, she pulled herself off the player along with her dagger. Blood covered her white dress-- such a shame.

Bang.

Akh. It had reached the top of the hill. With another strong swing from its claw, Akh formed four deep scars on the ice wall.

Eimi gulped, she rubbed her hands against her dress and rushed to the wall's side.

The samurai reached the top of the hill too but they did not dare to partner up with the deadly monsters who were scratching the wall furiously.

Kamiya focused all of his attention on the screen, he cupped his hands under his chin and wished he could do something to save her.

"It will kill her, Kamiya, we should move," said Hitori. Hitori did not know what he should do-- counterattack or stay back and watch Eimi die, watch Uragi conquer their dungeon.

"We will get ourselves killed..." Kamiya responded, "you know their fourth unit has also entered the lair."

Reon, who was praying till now, lifted her head, "Then just do something! A trap, an attack, cannons, anything!" she threw her hands, "I can not see her die! She is our age... she looks so innocent," Reon said, as she pulled her eyes down on Eimi.

"I can not set traps in the middle of an active raid," Kamiya told her.

"Then we watch him as he conquers our lair?" Hitori glared at Kamiya, and Kamiya nodded.

"That is the plan."

'Hell with the plan, Kamiya.' Hitori wanted to say it out loud but decided otherwise.

Akh took a step back, then it swung its tail around with all of its strength.

On impact with the wall, Akh successfully created a big hole in the wall.

Eimi sat down and turned to the side, 'No.' She wished. But no, Akh was already ready on the other side.

Akh raised its front legs and smashed them against the wall, this shattered the wall totally.

Akh jumped through the loophole created. Eimi got up. She somehow took control of her trembling hand and shot it at Akhlut's face.

But before she could cast any magic, Akh leaped at her and pushed her down the hill. They both slid down the non-friction ice smoothly.

Eimi banged her head against the ground. Akh leaned down, climbed Eimi, and scratched her face with a strong swing.

Her health reduced directly to half. Akh scratched again and peeled her screen. Then furiously, Akh started scratching all over her body.

Her dress was torn to pieces, and her chest did not even look like a chest anymore. Her stomach was torn and the insides popped out along with blood.

Akh took a step back and then leaped at Eimi's neck. It grabbed her neck in between its interlocked teeth. With a tight pull, Akh tore her head.

Most of the players watched as the scene unfolded in front of their eyes. Reon and Hitori had already diverted their eyes away from their screens.

[The Yuki Lair has been conquered by I am Darkness and his guild]

[You have lost your Yuki Lair]

Kamiya pulled his hand to cover his tears, "Eimi..." Kamiya had never thought it would be so hard to face.

Even when Kamiya was so sure that they would defeat Kuzu and take their dungeons back. After their two defeats, Kamiya did not know how he should react-- feel confident, angry, or demotivated, inspired to fight back, or perhaps should he laugh? Or shall he just fear Kuzu and Onogi and run?

While Uragi and his men stared at the scene blindly, Gigi's unit entered the floor.

"Move on! Keep moving!" Gigi ordered as he ran inside the boss' lair along with his force.

Uragi glanced at Akh who was still playing with Eimi's body, "Move on, guys," he ordered his men.

They took the lead and headed towards a dark exit. Eimi's body was pixelated so Akh joined the rest. It took the lead and ran through the exit before anyone.

No one would have dared to step through the exit with Akh running towards the exit at the speed of thirty-seven miles per hour.

When Uragi stepped out of the exit, he did not see Akh anywhere. His men and Gigi exited the Yuki Lair.

Uragi looked down at a platform, "A hidden dungeon..."

"Go on, take your force to the level fifteen hidden dungeon, I will advance forward." Gigi patted Uragi's back, "Do not fucking spare anyone," Gigi whispered.

Uragi thought for a second. He took a step forward, "Sure." And jumped down into the Hogosha Phoenix dungeon, and his men followed him.

[Your Hogosha Phoenix Dungeon has been invaded by I am Darkness and is currently under a raid!]

"Now let us see what you can do inside a fire dungeon?" Kamiya leaned forward and shifted the camera to the first floor.

Akh was already struggling against the fire wolves. Although being an Orca hybrid did not matter much on the land surface, being haunted by twenty-two fire wolves was something different for a single Akhlut.

Magus creased his forehead, "Quantity over Quality, huh?" Magus scoffed.

Five wolves circled Akh while five others dived into it like hungry wolves.

Akh scratched a wolf and it lost its vision. But Akh could not scratch or bite any more wolves.

A fire wolf grabbed Akh's tail from behind, another grabbed its neck, another one climbed it from the top, and so more than ten wolves were eating Akh.

"Oh fuck," Uragi entered the first floor. His eyes popped at the scene.

The rest of the wolves charged at his men, "Protect the Akhlut!" Uragi screamed.

But it was too late. Kamiya smiled as he leaned back.

Uragi cut down the wolves that had mounted Akh only to discover a horrible scene.

Akh's dead body lay in front of him, its head was detached, bite marks covered the whole body, one paw was torn apart, its tail was bitten to death and then thrown away into a corner.

"Fuck!" Uragi smashed his sword into the ground. He did not hesitate, "Kuzu, I need more Akhluts."

Kuzu hung up, "Bastard, it costs three thousand yen per Akhlut and five hundred yen for one Akhitar!"

While Kuzu cursed Uragi, he was preparing to summon three Akhluts and two Akhitars.
