The area around the dungeon was like a dead city. Empty buildings lined up in a neglected condition. Some looked crushed, some looked mossy. Cars parked carelessly in the middle of the cracked and potholed road.
Around hundreds of Hunters, from various guilds in China or other countries, flocked together towards to the dungeon. They were filled with adrenaline for a fierce battle.
Along the way, there were loud screams and bangs from a distance. However, these hundreds of Hunters had never met any monsters at all.
"Everyone, hurry up! Don't let us be left behind!"
Wang Yi called for her men to quicken their footsteps. She ran swiftly even though her body was clad in heavy armour that was shiny like moonlight.
Everyone seemed to have a hard time keeping up with the woman's running speed. Their faces were full of sweat and their breathing became rag. Guo Chen was no exception, although he had higher Class among this group.
His face was covered with beads of sweat and his heart felt like it was about to burst from racing. Then, he turned to Isaac, who was running alongside him. Instantly, his eyes widened.
"Who exactly are you, Brother?" Guo Chen muttered curiously.
Unlike the others, Isaac seemed fine. His condition was still the same as when he just got off the minibus; fit, no sweat, and regular breathing. No signs of fatigue at all.
"Aggh!"
Guo Chen, who was observing Isaac out of curiosity, accidentally bumped into Xue Yang, who stopped in the middle of the road.
"You stupid! Are you blind?!"
The man's words annoyed Guo Chen. However, he had to put his emotions aside, for a great battle was unfolding before him.
A sea of humans and monsters shedded blood on each other.
The Hunters swung their swords or axes while screaming, slashing every monster in their path.
Not only did they fight with weapons, caster-type Hunters emitted flames, flashes of lightning, and spikes of ice; they adorned the dark sky covered by smoke.
On other side, monsters with various shapes and forms resembling humans, quadrupeds, scaly like lizards, or had fangs like lions; they united to slaughter humans. Their screams were heard reverberating in the sky with a thud echoing through the air.
"What the…"
Guo Chen gulped at this sight. This was his first experience in a massive scale battle.
He had heard that the battle on the first dungeon break was the worst.
Whereas when he was in Hunchun, there was never a dungeon break at all. He couldn't imagine what it would be like if the area he lived in had a dungein break. There didn't have many Hunters and guilds.
"Listen. This battle will be fierce. Not all people fit to go to the front row."
The group led by Wang Yi was at the rear of the human army. About 200 metres from their position was the front line.
Then, she divided the team into three groups. The first group was led by her, the second group by Xue Yang, and the last group was led by Feng Hua.
Wang Yi and Xue Yang's group would fight on the front lines. Whereas Feng Huan's group would be at the back line as the support team.
"Yes, Ma'am!" Feng Huan and Xue Yang replied in unison.
"Good. Let's go."
The two groups followed Wang Yi into the sea of people. Now, only five people remained.
Including Isaac.
"As you have heard earlier, we will become a support team. Our job is to treat the injured Hunters and make sure no monsters get out of the line."
Feng Hua looked at the three novice healers and Isaac with firm determination.
"Let's carry out this task."
As the leader, Feng Hua moved first to lead the others. They ran towards where Hunter was receiving medical treatment. It was 100 metres from the back row.
Dozens of Hunters with various wounds were lying on the black asphalt. They were groaning in pain because of the wounds on their bodies. Broken bones sticking out, stomach tear apart, arms severed; many of them had disabilities.
The three novice healers put on horrified faces when they saw the patient's condition. Then, a woman wearing priest robe told them to help another healer.
The three of them looked at Feng Hua, asking for approval. After he nodded, they followed the healer in the priest robe.
"Who are you?!"
A large man wearing armour full of abrasions approached Isaac and Feng Hua, who were standing, watching the healers treat the injured Hunters.
"What are you doing here? Hurry up, go to the front row! Other than a healer or medical assistant, there is no need adding Hunter again in the back row."
The man had a fierce face. His gaze showed an expression of displeasure. Then, Feng Hua quickly explained his reason.
"My name is Feng Hua and this partner of mine is Isaac Constantine. We are the representatives of the Nine Sky Guild. On Miss Wang Yi's orders, the two of us were asked to assist the rearguard."
One of the man's eyebrows shot up when he heard the word 'Nine Sky'. Who hadn't heard of one of the seven great guilds in China?
However, the man still showed displeasure.
"Tch. Just because they are from big guilds that they can go their own way." The man spat. "Help me carry the injured hunters."
Then Isaac and Feng Hua followed the man. The three of them helped other medical hunters carry injured hunters to the treatment centre.
Isaac followed the flow. He realized that right now he was playing the role of a human. Not a Demon Lord.
At the same time, Isaac patiently waited for the opportunity to come. A chance to show his power, so that he could gain their trust and enter the Nine Sky Guild.
"RAAWWWWRG!"
When Isaac was busy carrying the injured hunters, suddenly a lion with a humanoid body broke through to the back row. That creature destroyed the Hunter border with its bludgeon and continued to break through until it finally arrived near the location of the infirmary.
[Name : N/A]
[Race : Werelion]
[Type : Beast]
[Class : E]
[Level : 15]
"Attack! Don't let the lion monster kill the healer!"
Instantly, dozens of Hunters who were in the back row chased the rampaging werelion. They attacked simultaneously. Swords, spears, including various elemental magic, attacked the lion monster. However, they only managed to scratch its skin.
After receiving various attacks, wereliom went berserk. The monster roared, its voice not only echoing in the air but also deafening the eardrums of the Hunters.
Wow! Wow! Swung!
The bledgeon was swung towards the humans and swept the Hunters in the vicinity. Human bodies flew and hit the walls of buildings or roads. Those who were hit by the werelion bludgeon immediately breathed their last.
Everyone who witnessed the incident fainted and was frightened. Their faces were deathly pale.
There was only one person who didn't show any fear at all. Who else but Isaac.
