BXBX NOVEL Chapter 877 Getting Surrounded!
The latter was already struggling to keep himself safe under the constant attacks coming from the densely packed monsters around. When these high-end forces of monsters appeared, he felt instant danger.
He was forced to stop advancing, and even started to consider retreating. His technique wasn\'t great at dealing with such high-end monsters. And his other technique was enough to handle middle stage monsters, not the high stage ones.
As he felt such a crazy threat, he didn\'t hesitate to retreat a few hundreds of metres, trying to distance himself off the incoming hellishly scary monster force. But these monsters weren\'t just strong, but also intelligent.
The moment he started to retreat, they parted themselves into two groups. One kept advancing towards William, releasing lots of attacks to limit his escape paths and freedom to move around, while the other started to circle William, intending to block his retreat path, totally surrounding and entrapping him.
At this point, William was using his spirit sense on full cylinders. He could see the monsters divide up and start moving in two different paths. He knew what they were planning, and that made him expect the worst.
He knew he could outrun any attacks and monsters using his dash technique. But against such high-end monsters, this was truly hopeless to try.
"Be ready, we are going to intervene and help him… F*ck! What is he doing?!!!"
Sloth was just about to order his team to move with him to rescue William. The current situation was hopeless for the latter, and there was no way out of this deadly entrapment in everyone\'s eyes, enemies and allies alike.
But William had a different opinion than this. The moment he realised the trap the intelligent monsters were laying down for him, he didn\'t hesitate to change his direction, heading directly towards the monsters coming at him.
He knew monsters were launching lots of deadly attacks towards him, but there was a slim chance for him to survive this situation by taking such a path.
The monsters were already spreading themselves thin to entrap him, so he had to face less than twenty monsters instead of a few hundred. He changed his route fast and used his dashing technique to the maximum, to not give the monsters any chance to run back and stop him.
Just as he moved, he started to stack a few attacks over his tails. The moment he reached the monsters up ahead, he released a few attacks in one single blow.
The monsters already released lots of attacks towards him. And when he changed route, the first reaction from other monsters was by releasing another wave of attacks, trying to stop his advance.
But William was already prepared. Using his spirit sense, he started jumping around, evading the incoming attacks by a hair breadth. The loud noises of explosions rang all around him, but that didn\'t startle or distract him.
He kept his eyes fixed over one direction, while seeing everything using his spirit sense. No matter how fast the attacks these monsters released were, he was able to evade all without failing once, without slowing down even once.
*Boom!*
The moment he arrived at the twenty monsters up ahead, he released his stacked-up attack and created a fierce explosion. But weirdly enough many more explosions occurred, hitting these monsters and sending them flying away, opening a wide path for him to escape from this encirclement.
He already threw many grenades the moment he arrived at these twenty monsters. He knew all this wouldn\'t even mortally wound any monster, at most they\'d leave behind a few scratches here and there. But his aim wasn\'t to kill them in the first place.
And just as he ran out, he turned, took out his bow and arrows, releasing these with many grenades fixed to their tapering ends.
The barrage of attacks ended up with forming a thick layer of explosions and fire, stopping the advancing monsters for a few minutes. And William just needed less than one minute to run away with his life.
He didn\'t even look behind after releasing these few hundreds of arrows and grenades. As he ran forward, he kept throwing away many vibrant ores.
He was sure he was overstepping his boundaries this time, and this kind of battle was beyond his current limits. Luckily his win didn\'t depend on killing all monsters and dark masters, but to simply set foot inside the Black Holes area and lay down the counter formation. And he was positive about his ability to survive until doing this, was confident in his ability to run away with his life.
Monsters didn\'t have spirit sense, so they didn\'t see what William was doing. But the masters led by Sloth were all able to see William\'s actions down to the tiniest detail.
"That kid… Why is he giving us such a hard time to save him?" one of the masters sighed, complaining about the ores William threw around, blocking any path for them to venture deeper and rescue him.
"He is confident about his survival odds if he decided to do that!"
"Or he is burning all the ships, planning to take down all monsters with him," another said, and Sloth kept his silence while watching what William was doing.
"Let\'s go around these ores," he finally decided, "I\'m sure he\'ll need our help by the end."
Sloth was the leader of these masters, and what he said made perfect sense to them. They could see for many kilometres past what William could, and they saw how the enemy started to respond to William\'s growing threat.
More scary monsters were on the run now to meet him. For a reason, the dark masters caught a glimpse of what William wanted to do, suspected that he was desperately trying to get into the Black Holes region.
Even if they suspected his destination, they couldn\'t guess his goal. All they could do was to think about this kid having a way to report what he\'d see back to the main master army.
