Chapter 51 – Glaide VS Everyone
Once the monster heard those cries, all of them started attacking Glaide. "Tch!" Glaide clicked her tongue annoyed with the monsters. She opened her wings and wanted to fly when suddenly, the group of Snow Buffalo used the Snow Breath technique and breathed above Glaide to block her escape path.
Glaide wanted to escape but changed her mind immediately when she was blocked. She decided to deal with the monsters.
The wolves pounded towards Glaide. Glaide could not fly and could do her best to evade. While evading, she would flap her wings and slapped the attacking wolves. That was not a normal slap, it was a skill.
Wing Slap was a skill Glaide learned while training. It was at the max level at Glaide's current power. The skill had the attacking effect and also the smashing effect. A slap of her wing could damage and smash her opponent.
Thanks to the skill max level added with her maximum stat, the damage dealt was massive. Glaide was a monster at Tier 2 after using the Tier 1 Breaker item. She knew of the Snow Buffalo's Tier because Lucas and Qin Yun encountered them once but she was unsure of the Tier of the rabbits and the wolves.
If she based them off the Snow Buffalo, they were stronger than the Snow Buffalo. She assumed that they were of Tier 4 or perhaps Tier 5. Be that as it may, she did not feel threatened with them. She knew she could deal with the Snow Buffalo and since the rabbits and wolves were around the same power, she could deal with them too.
Her pride nature worked immediately once she thought she could deal with them. Glaide was calm and whenever a wolf or rabbit attacked her, she would slap them into the thick snow. With her Enhance Sight skill, she could see everything that was happening around her.
More and more of the monsters were attacking her. The Snow Buffalo was slow and decided to provide support while the rabbits and wolves with higher speed and attack to attack Glaide.
Out of all the Snow Buffalo, the rabbits, and the wolves, each of the groups had a leader. The leader did not participate in this fight and observed silently at the back. The rabbit leader saw something and gave a new command.
"Kii! Kii kiii~" the other rabbits heard the command and half of them stopped attacking Glaide. They raised their arms in front of them and the snow around them flew and formed snowballs in front of them. After that, they shot the snowballs at Glaide.
Glaide did not feel threatened at all. She was still as calm and prideful as usual. As snowballs came towards her, she easily dodged them. It was too easy for her until suddenly, something hit her back.
"Kyu!!!" Glaide screeched in pain. After that, she was blown away by that hit and fell on the snow. The one that hit her was another rabbit.
The rabbit leader found Glaide's blind spot and used the snowballs to distract her. The other rabbits would then use this chance to enter her blind spot and hit her.
As the monsters saw Glaide fell on the snow, all of them did not waste a chance and attack at that spot.
"Boom!!!" An explosion happened but when the monsters checked that spot, Glaide was gone. All of them were shocked. At this moment, suddenly, something pierced from the snow into one of the rabbit's bodies, killing it on the spot.
Glaide came out of the snow with the dead rabbit on her beak. Glaide was a massive bird and when she came out, she was in a rage. She opened her wings and she looked much more massive. She emitted her energy and killing intent shocking all the monsters present.
Glaide threw the dead rabbit out of her beak and screeched, "KYU!!!!" in anger. She flapped her wings once and floated above the snow a bit but then, she suddenly dived into the snow.
"Kii! KII! Kiiii!!!" The rabbit leader shouted asking all his group members to dive in the snow too. He felt like Glaide was trying to run away through the snow.
However, he was wrong when suddenly, Glaide came out of the snow and killed a Snow Buffalo easily with her beak. After that, she flew in the air with the heavy Snow Buffalo on her beak and dived back but she snatched a wolf with her claws and crushed the wolf's body, cutting it to two.
Glaide used two of her skills. First was Peck. Before the training, it only had the attack effect. It was the normal and common Peck skill a monster with a beak would have. After improvement, the stab and pierce effects were added to the skill making the normal and common peck to a deadly skill.
The stab and pierce effect were the same things. It could impale a target with the skill. When two of them were stacked together, the effect multiplied. Thus, even when the monsters she fought were of higher Tier, all of them did not have the maximum stat and powerful improved skills in their repertoire and Glaide with all of that could kill them easily.
The second skill was Snatch. Just as the name implied, the skill could let Glaide snatch things easily with her claws. However, after improvement, the skill could not only snatch things but also could be used to attack with the additional effect of crushing the thing she snatched.
The wolf that Glaide snatched was crushed and separated into two thanks to the crushing effect of Snatch skill.
Glaide dived into the snow back. She used her environment to her best. When the rabbit leader saw that, he jumped high in the air with his arm stretched back, and then, he launched towards snow.
Once he got above the snow, the rabbit leader punched the snow. Immediately, an impact from the punch occurred and blew all the snow in the 10 meters area around them. When the snow was blown away, they saw Glaide was hit with the impact too. Glaide stopped on her track and fell on her back on the leftover snow.
The wolf leader took charge now and headed fast toward Glaide. He opened his mouth and his fangs grew longer and sharper.
"GROWL!!!" The wolf leader wanted to bite Glaide to death. Glaide saw the incoming bite and raised her claw just enough to grab the wolf leader's jaw.
The wolf leader forced himself to bite Glaide but she was holding it but not for long when suddenly, the Snow Buffalo leader charged toward her with its horn shone and directed toward her.
Glaide clenched her beak and worked her brain to the fullest to think of a solution to get out of the situation. Even so, the Snow Buffalo leader was not the last one coming at her, the rabbit leader was charging a powerful and big snowball to shoot at her.
The Snow Buffalo horn was right at her. Glaide used her wing and slapped the Snow Buffalo leader's jaw and redirected it towards the wolf leader. At the same time, she used her claw strength and moved the wolf leader's head toward the redirected Snow Buffalo leader's horn attack.
Both of them were shocked. The Snow Buffalo immediately canceled his horn attack but his normal horn was still headed towards the wolf leader. The wolf leader thought faster and immediately spun his body to dodge the horn.
Glaide was relieved when she saw her plan worked but she had forgotten about the rabbit leader when suddenly, a massive snowball hit her and she was thrown away for a few meters. Since she was distracted by the Snow Buffalo leader and the wolf leader, she was not able to defend against the snowball.
Glaide fell on the snow and screeched in pain. She tried to move but whenever she tried to do it, she felt pain all over her body. She found out that some of her bones had broken and one of her wings suffered the same consequences too.
Although Glaide had maxed out all of her stats, she was still a Tier 2 monster. She could fight the Tier 4 monsters but her stats were not that far higher than the monsters. Not only that, she excelled in speed while her weakest stat was defense. Once she was pinned like that and hit directly like that, it was easy for her to get injured badly like that.
The rabbit leader panted. He did his best to launch the strongest snowball at their thief. He saw that Glaide was still alive and ordered his group members to end her.
As for the Snow Buffalo leader and the wolf leader, they were glaring at each other with the wolf leader's eyes that said, "You are trying to kill me just now, right?" but immediately gave the order to their group members to finish Glaide off.
Glaide tried to escape but to no avail. She could not move an inch and knew she was done. She was not regretful with what she did earlier and glared at the incoming rabbits, wolves, and buffalos.
As they were coming, the rabbits stretched their arm to give Glaide their final punches. The wolves' nails glowed and wanted to give Glaide their strongest scratches. The Snow Buffalos had their horns grow in size and wanted to stab Glaide.
All of them were coming to Glaide. She was not scared but her anger grew. She had been training hard and improved a lot but she was getting killed by a group of monsters weaker than her. She clenched her beak in anger.
All of the attacks hit her and a small explosion happened and blew all the snow away. Even so, all the rabbits, wolves, and buffalos that were trying to give the last blow to Glaide had their eyes wide open in confusion because something round was blocking their punches, scratches, and horns.
A monkey head peak from behind that round thing. It looked at the confused rabbits, wolves, and buffalos and smiled.
