Chapter 290
“M-Malacus’s Cloak . ”
This was a little too much . Weren’t vampires sensitive to the smell of blood? The vampires would come flocking like dogs if Malacus’ Cloak was used . It was like digging his grave .
‘I have to wear this?’
Vantner hesitated . On the other hand, Grid and his colleagues showed a firm determination .
“Vantner, there is no time to spare . ”
“Speed is important . We have to make them keep coming . ”
“We will help you, so don’t worry and put on the cloak . ”
“…Okay, I understand . ”
Every member of Overgeared was prepared to die . Vantner was no different . He prepared his mind and took the lead after wearing Malacus’ Cloak .
“Let’s go . ”
Grid didn’t delay . He entered the large building in front of him .
***
“It is really wide . It is bigger than it seems from the outside . ”
“This is bad . It is better to fight a lot of enemies in a narrow space . ”
“Yes . This place is completely open without any cover . ”
The voices of the party members echoed in every corner . The first floor of the building was a huge hall . It could accommodate at least 2,000 people . The ceiling reached to the 7th floor and there were two staircases leading upstairs .
“I think it’s better to get in a formation on the stairs, as it’ll be easier for us to be surrounded by the enemies on the upper levels than to be surrounded on all sides . ”
This was Jishuka’s opinion . The other members agreed and quickly moved .
“It is dreary . ”
“It is like a cemetery . ”
In the center of the dark hallway, hundreds of coffins were randomly arranged . It was a creepy sight .
Kung! Kung kung!
It happened when Grid’s party reached the stairs . The silent building suddenly became noisy . It was because the hundreds of coffins started shaking in unison . The vampires sleeping in the coffins were reacting to the bloody smell of Malacus’ Cloak .
“They’re coming!”
“Be prepared . ”
Grid’s group quickly got into formation and pulled out their weapons .
There was a dark red greatbow that resembled a roaring dragon, a blue spear with a great appearance, gauntlets that seemed like they could easily crush the enemy, dazzling silver daggers and so on .
They were all Grid’s works . The existence of Grid for the Overgeared members was incredibly large .
Kung! Kung!
Kwajak!
The coffins opened and the vampires appeared . They had pale skin, long fangs, and red eyes . Their red eyes turned towards Grid’s group . To be precise, it was towards Vantner .
“This fragrance is good . ”
“As soon as I open my eyes, I can celebrate with human blood . ”
The vampires were the top predators . They didn’t feel any nervousness about the people who invaded their territory . Rather, they laughed like they were happy .
‘Fast!’
The vampires living in the underground cities were different from those who popped up all over the continent . Their combat power was between level 280~350 .
“Give me blood! I shall enjoy it!”
“Ohuhut, shall we aim for that man’s clean neck?”
The 200 vampires quickly narrowed the distance to Grid’s group . It was a tremendous speed . They aimed for Vantner who monopolized their aggro .
“I don’t think I can hold out for long! Guard of Steel! Guardian of Wisdom! Giant’s Blessing!”
[For three minutes, physical defense will increase by 30% and there will be a 50% increase in resistance to stabbing and cutting . ]
[For three minutes, magic resistance will increase by 30% and attributes resistance will increase by 50% . ]
[A shield that will absorb 20,000 damage has been created . ]
Vantner had invested all his stat points into strength until level 200 . Nonetheless, he was able to play his role as ranker thanks to the excellent defense skills of a guardian knight .
“Sun Guard!”
Flash!
A bright light shone on the bald Vantner . It was the reflection of the light emitted from his shield .
“Ugh!”
The sudden emergence of light caused the vampires to lose momentum . Most of them lost their eyesight and stopped in place for a moment . But the 50 vampires in the rear were relatively fine . They hit Vantner first .
Jjejeong! Jjejejeok!
Kukwakwang!
[You have suffered 5,600 damage . ]
[You have suffered 5,980 damage . ]
[You have suffered 7,110 damage . ]
“Ack! It hurts! Hurts!”
Vampires had excellent physical abilities, magic power, and intelligence . They used magic to provoke Vantner’s magic resistance skills, then linked physical attacks . In some cases, it was the opposite . Vantner was unable to demonstrate a complete defense and was quickly wounded .
The Overgeared members weren’t watching quietly . Zednos started first . As Vantner pulled the aggro at the bottom of the stairs, he completed the long chant for the Storm of Eternity .
Kwaang!
The storm rapidly rotated around a previously determined point, trapping the 50 vampires within and making unable to do anything . It was the ultimate storm from the Storm Magician Zednos that could confine many enemies for a minimum of 30 seconds to a maximum of 5 minutes . The disadvantage was that no attacks from outside could occur, but it was a strategically useful magic .
“Well done!”
Thanks to Zednos, Vantner could now breathe . He took a potion, while the remaining 150 vampires restored their eyesight and rushed over . Vantner’s suffering began from now .
“S-Save me! Aaack~!”
Papat! Papapat!
The vampires were skilled in hand to hand combat or swordsmanship, depending on their strength and agility . They aimed magic towards Vantner who was struggling to block the attacks with his shield .
“Cripple!”
“Dark Binding!”
“Neder’s Grab!”
Various curse magic lowered Vantner’s magic resistance and his body was restrained .
“This!”
