BXBX NOVEL Chapter 55 Saved
Sonya and Asqa widened their eyes when they saw the scene ahead.
Mona was lying with a body full of wounds on the hood of a car.
The car also almost looks flat as if pressed by Mona's body weight.
This is untrue because of course Mona's body isn't that heavy.
It had to be because Mona had just been thrown so forcefully into the car that it made the car the state it is in now.
"You go to Mona and heal her," Sonya said.
Asqa didn't say anything else and ran straight to Mona. Meanwhile, Sonya ran to help Eric while pulling her bowstring.
*BRAAKK!!!*
The gray monster's punch hit a car that was behind Eric. While Eric had managed to roll over to avoid the attack.
Eric gritted his teeth. His grip on his sword tightened.
'Why did things turn out like this?' Eric wondered accompanied by feelings of anger and anxiety in his head.
Of course, he was confused. The monster that was previously so weak has now become so strong that it even managed to attack Mona to make her like that.
But Eric's anxiety and fear disappeared when he saw Sonya running from behind the monster. She raised her bow to aim and then fired her arrow a moment later.
*SYUUUT!*
The arrow sliced through the air and dug into the gray monster's back.
*CRAAATTT!*
"NGGGRAAAHH!!!"
The monster let out a scream of pain. It which previously was about to be charged toward Eric now rotates its body.
"Grrrhhh..." The monster growled before charging toward Sonya.
Eric did not remain silent. Because Sonya had saved him, now it was his turn to save her.
Eric ran from behind the monster and aimed for its exposed back. With Sonya here, he was no longer as afraid as before.
With the two of them, they would be able to overcome the monster.
Eric increased his running speed and then stomped on the ground once he felt he had gotten the right distance.
Eric jumped high into the air as he raised his sword and slashed the monster's back.
*SSSSRAAATTT!*
"GRAAAHH!!!"
The monster let out a scream that sounded louder than before.
As soon as he landed, Eric immediately rolled to the side to avoid any attacks coming from the monster.
And sure enough, the monster immediately turned around and swung that gray fist.
*DRAAKKK!*
The ground where Eric was just a moment before cracked from being hit by the monster's fist.
Eric made the right decision to immediately roll over when he landed.
Sonya drew her bow again and fired. Her arrow landed in the same place as before.
There are now two arrows stuck in the back of the head of the gray monster.
All of that makes it divided attention. The monster's eyes shifted between Eric and Sonya.
Meanwhile, Eric and Sonya's eyes also met. From each other's eyes, they can already communicate and know what to do.
Sonya pulled her bowstring. This time, it took her a bit longer because she used [Skill: Hunter's Marker].
Meanwhile, Eric lunged at the monster and slashed his sword at its leg.
*SRAAATT!*
Because the monster's attention was distracted for a moment, it was too late to notice Eric's attack.
Finally, on the monster's thigh, there was a deep cut that was dripping blood from Eric's sword.
*CRAATTT!*
Then an arrow was also stuck in its back. Unlike before, now the wound produced by the arrow was bleeding more profusely than that produced by Eric's incision.
Eric did not stay silent seeing that Sonya had injured him. He dashed with great speed and thrust his sword into the monster's chest.
*CRAAATTT!!!*
The monster let out a scream of pain like before. Then the monster swung both arms simultaneously at Eric.
Eric released his sword and used his Skill to create a golden shield.
*DANGGG!*
The monster's two hands hit its shield. Eric felt the pressure from the attack make his knees buckle.
*SYUUTTT!*
*CRAATTT!*
Another arrow from Sonya stuck in the monster's back.
The arrow was also fired with [Skill: Hunter's Marker] so that it immediately caused a wound that was bleeding.
The blood from the monster has now formed a pool under its feet. The monster now looks weakened.
With Eric's sword in its chest and the wound from Sonya's arrow that kept bleeding, the monster couldn't hold back the damage that kept consuming it.
The monster finally fell to its knees. Realizing that it had weakened, Eric lunged and then threw a full-force punch toward the monster's face.
*DOUGHH!*
The blow sent the monster crashing to the ground. Eric immediately pulled his sword from his chest and thrust it into the monster's head.
*CRAAATTT!*
Blood splashed all over Eric's body but he didn't care. Eric drew his sword and then stabbed it again many times so that blood was splashed many times over his body.
[ You have killed the Artifact Bearer (Lv.30) ]
[ You gained 30 Exp. ]
Eric took a deep breath next to the monster. As soon as he got the notification, Eric exclaimed.
"LEVEL 30?!"
Sonya, who already knew everything, approached him.
"You surprised?" she asked.
"You already know about this?"
Sonia nodded. "I also encountered the same problem. I thought they would never give us a break."
"Where's Asqa?" he asked.
"She's healing Mona. What's going on?"
"We thought the monster would be easy to kill. So we immediately attacked it recklessly. Turns out, it gives much greater resistance than we thought," Eric explained.
"Just like what happen tonus," Sonya said. "We have to catch up with Reed and Rodney quickly. They might be having a hard time too."
As soon as they got near Mona and Asqa, they saw a soft green light already enveloping her body.
It was a sign that Asqa's healing powers were working on Mona.
Eric also said that the monster grabbed Mona and then slammed her many times into the car.
Mona should have held up better because of her Stats. But she didn't know that the monster's Level was already above theirs.
