At this point, Reef and Sheyan finally received a nightmare imprint notification.
[ Do you wish to exchange 2 achievement points to regain your freedom? ]
[ If storyline character Stableboy Pombo is slain, you will find it hard to attain the trust and become a member of Wright's Caravan. As a member, you will be granted the qualifications to enter freely into Rivendell ]
Yet Sheyan and Reef bluntly selected 'No'!
Who were they kidding. Even without being related to Maiden Melody, their appearances were muddled with the elf captives from Rivendell. This brat was probably freed after Melody's return.
Though arrogant in nature, the elves were upright. Therefore, wanting to enter Rivendell wouldn't be an issue, what would they waste two precious achievement points to do so.
Following that, that gloomy witch-like woman glared over and shouted with a commanding tone.
"Quick save him!"
Sheyan ignored her. Reef looked as if he wanted to point a middle finger but was hindered by the vines. Hence, he bluntly scolded.
"Shut up."
Her face turned gloomier but regarding such temperamental individuals, Sheyan didn't feel a single threat and didn't place her to heart.
At this stage, he had a rough understanding of the basic sequence of the realm. Unless it was in a battlefield, it was best not to kill anyone recklessly. Nevertheless, if one were to spontaneously seek death, then Sheyan wouldn't mind satisfying that desire.
Observing Sheyan's and Reef's unmoving state, that cultured male also refrained from saving. Meanwhile, the lips of that gloomy female moved as though she was reciting a curse. Still, she chose not to take action and remained as a spectator.
Thus…stable boy Pombo was slain miserably by the orcs. Even his remains was profaned.
After Pombo died, 'kacha' sounds erupted from Reef's cross and finally split into wooden fragments.
Indeed, Reef had regained his mobility! Upon landing, a terrifying enormous silver claw pierced out from his right arm!
The nearest orc to Reef roared furiously and swung its stone hatchet down ferociously.
Reef, however, didn't opt to brandish his shield but merely blocked with his new silver storyline weapon, 'Steelclaw', and easily parried the stone hatchet away.
Amidst the sparks, Reef cleaved unceasingly as blood spurted out alongside the bitter howls of the orc.
Meanwhile, Sheyan also escaped the fetters of the vines and inquired with amazement in the party channel.
"Why aren't you employing your shield……what new move is that?"
Reef laughed delightedly.
"A characteristic of 'Claw Weapon Mastery', granting me this special ability to employ my claw with both hands to gain additional 30% damage. Moreover, I can swap to my shield anytime. Watching how you slash around with your saber, I did get rather envious."
Sheyan shrugged his shoulders.
"Indeed, every MT would secretly possess a heart to be a damage dealer. Try and restrain yourself man, oh right, where's your old Centauri lightsaber?"
Reef answered.
"AK took it while you and Zi were in your own world. He wanted to upgrade his dark-gold grade 'Versace Boa Pants' and purchase an addon. So his hands were rather tight."
In this instant, another orc hurled a wooden spear towards Reef. Reef blocked and crashed backwards from that wooden spear. However, he immediately released a 'Shattering Cardiac Roar' to the sky!
After advancing to become a Growth-Hunter, the might of his 'Shattering Cardiac Roar' became extremely effective on the orcs. The surrounding orcs staggered around as their movement speed plunged greatly.
Following that, Reef roared and continued cleaving out streaks of blood with 'Steelclaw'.
As Sheyan observed Reef, he felt that Reef was somewhat different…as though a humble knight was gradually transforming into a valiant siege knight. Both of them were the backbone of Party Ace, but as compared to the pious and stern knight he was in the past, this knew valiant siege knight seemed rather unbridled, feisty and ardent.
"Probably Mogensha's boldness to challenge the Growth-Hunter realm naked got to his head." Sheyan quickly captured Reef's change. "Or perhaps, the education and culture he grew up with had all along suppressed his true nature, and now…his personality is truly awakening."
All of a sudden, an orc shaman appeared at the doorway of the wooden canopy with a skull staff.
His body oozed with dark energy and seemed like a mini boss type of character. The skull staff appeared crude, just a wooden pike impaling an orc skull, but upon closer inspection, the luster of the wood indicated it was still alive. The malevolent and vicious orc skull impressed a sense of despair.
As the orc shaman chanted, one could feel clear arcane ripples around its skull staff.
In this instant, that cultured male suddenly gestured a palm to the orc shaman. Instantly, its arcane ripples turned fuzzy.
That was an extremely peculiar sensation, as though a peaceful running water was suddenly clogged and water spurted everywhere. The shaman's arcane magic was instantly disrupted.
Instead, that vicious orc shaman roared angrily and waved its bone staff towards the few other orcs!
The orcs begun roaring sonorously as their eyes turned red. They then charged towards the four contestants unanimously.
"Bloodlust spell? Sheyan mused and said. "Because its incantation spell was disrupted, the spell changed?"
Concurrently, the cultured male stretched out his hand again towards an incoming orc. That orc immediately altered its charging direction and fiercely collided into a fence.
Kacha! The fence broke and naturally, the orc's head bled.
When the orc climbed back up, he casually ignored the cultured male and bolted towards Sheyan.
"Eh? That guy's ability is rather unique." Sheyan mused in his heart and said. "An illusion master?"
Meanwhile, the roaring Reef just swiped his 'Steelclaw' through the throat of an incoming orc. Already riddled with wounds, it was pitifully beheaded by Reef's vicious swipe!
A pillar of blood gushed into the sky and sprinkled down like a fountain. A headless orc body sprinted 7-8 meters before slamming into a wooden fence and collapsing to the ground.
When the other orcs witnessed this scene, they didn't flee but turned increasingly berserk as they rampaged in.
Sheyan sliced off the left leg of an orc. However, before perishing, that orc wrapped Sheyan with its hairy arms and revealed its disgusting white teeth.
Frankly speaking, Sheyan didn't place the strength of this orc in his eyes, still, he could sense a surge of deadliness from the orc.
"Strange, it wouldn't be weird if an Uruk-hai displayed such indomitable fighting spirit, but for an orc to be so tenacious, this is really thought-provoking." Sheyan pondered pensively.
In this instant, that gloomy woman unleashed an abrupt scream. Following that, one could distinctly observe two pincering orcs suddenly being rooted on the ground with fear, as a doppelganger illusion with distorted faces floated out from their bodies! Shockingly, it appeared as though their souls were being scared out of their bodies.
After being frightened out, the soul of one injured orc directly wafted out of its body and dissipated.
Although the other soul return to its orc body, that orc stumbled backwards with black blood streaming from its nose, ears and mouth. It was evidently severely wounded.
The orc shaman was standing quite near and suffered some spillover effects, but being just at the edge of the scream's range, it only received light damages.
"Ah, the 'Witch howl' ability." Reef spoke into the party channel. "This woman isn't simple. A 'Witch howl' ability is hailed as one of the earlier stage strongest area of effect damage ability. Aldaris suffered considerably by it before."
Sheyan nodded and replied.
"Yeah but I'm guessing she requires a chanting period to accumulate power to execute her scream. That is her fatal flaw and that illusion master's disrupting ability can easily restrain her."
The two chatted while fighting and very quickly eradicated the few orcs. Then, the proceeded to gang up on the bone staff wielding orc shaman.
Since their previous experience in the Lord of the Rings world, Sheyan and Reef were now exceedingly clear on the attack patterns and weaknesses of orcs. With the expansion of both their prowess since then, ganging up on a mage type mini boss was no issue. Without employing his shield, Reef easily blocked off its attacks.
Simultaneously, that illusion master assisted them as well. His attack style was unique where he carved out circles in the air with his finger. Then, the circles would unleash a light beam to strike the opponent.
This illusion master's attack power wasn't that great but could actually burn some of the opponent's mana. It was considered a rather splendid ability.
In contrast, that gloomy woman coldly spectated by the side without any intentions of assisting.
