BXBX NOVEL Chapter 196 Start Fighting
There were ten raptors running towards the five of them on their slender legs. The raptors opened their mouths and eyes wide when they saw that there was finally a target to satisfy their bloodlust.
"Lola, can you do it?" Rosie who was next to Lola asked because this seemed like the right time for Lola to use her crossbow.
Lola still looked doubtful. But she immediately nodded because she also wanted to quickly get used to her weapon.
So Lola started aiming. However, the crossbow was still too heavy for her because of her thin hands.
Moreover, Lola used her Stats Points only to increase her Magic Power level and didn't think about other Stats. At that moment, it's like the most reasonable thing to do.
Clyde who was behind them also realized it. He had looked up the brand's Character Information with [Skill: Inspection] and knew that they were only at level 6.
All of their Stats were still so low they hadn't even touched level 10 at all. But that's only natural because they didn't fight the BOSS or kill as many monsters as him and the people who go with him at that time.
Because of that Clyde wanted them to kill as many monsters as possible here. That way they could level up and get stronger quickly.
All of that was for the purpose of so he could get party members who were strong enough for the expedition mission that he would receive from Maethion.
Clyde walked faster toward Lola to help her. But before Clyde got close enough, Rosie who was next to her had already reached out her hand and grabbed Lola's crossbow.
"I'll help you. You just have to aim," Rosie said.
Lola nodded. Then start aiming.
Behind, Clyde nodded because it seemed that Lola already had good friends.
'It would be too bad if it turns out they turn traitors at some time in the future. But I hope that doesn't happen,' Clyde thought.
He hoped that the fate he experienced would not be experienced by others. Moreover, Lola, a girl who looks fragile and innocent, would immediately be devastated if her friends betrayed her.
Clyde even believes that she will not have enough strength to take revenge like him.
Lola started aiming more steadily now as Rosie's hand supported her. Meanwhile, Leon and Albert moved forward to greet the raptors.
Wiley ran a little behind the two of them, but he was still close enough to hear Clyde, Rosie, and Lola talking. With a blowdart in his hand, he was still waiting for his chance.
*SWIISHH!*
An arrow shot from Lola's crossbow. But the arrow just stuck in the tree trunk beside the raptors she was aiming at.
Lola let out a disappointed sigh.
"It's okay. Let's try again," Rosie said with a smile.
"Use your Skill," Clyde said suddenly.
Rosie and Lola turned to look at him.
"We can use Skills?" Rosie asked with a shocked expression.
"Yes. When you can see your Character Information, you can use the skills you have."
Lola and Rosie looked at each other. Bright smiles and optimistic looks appeared on their faces and eyes.
"Whoa, you didn't tell me that before!" Wiley said.
Clyde shrugged. "I was thinking about a lot of things just now."
After knowing the fact, Wiley immediately ran to Leon and Albert to tell them. However, he had already lost that opportunity because they were already dealing with the raptors.
"Oh shit!" Wiley cursed in disappointment.
A raptor jumped toward the two of them. Leon as usual, charged forward first to take the attack while Albert hid behind him.
"HYAAAH!!!"
Leon let out a loud screaming sound while swinging his sword. But the raptors were still fast enough to raise their forelimbs so that Leon's sword just smacked into its talons.
However, because the force that Leon released was quite big, the raptors were pushed back and fell on their friends.
"KHAAAKHH!"
What Leon did make the other raptors even angrier. They charged toward Leon simultaneously, making Leon feel worried.
"Hey! You guys can use Skills!"
Amidst his worries, Wiley's scream was heard from behind. Without bothering to reply, Leon immediately used his Skill.
Immediately Leon felt all parts of his body flowing with mysterious energy. The energy flowed swiftly and made his body harden many times over.
The raptors pounced on Leon mercilessly. They used their claws and teeth furiously, wanting to devour Leon as quickly as possible.
However, their teeth and claws only hit the hard surface of Leon's skin. Meanwhile, Leon just stood still with gritted teeth.
"Now it's my turn!"
Leon slashed his sword to the side. One of the raptors was actually hit by the slash so its jaw was split in two.
Seeing Leon who had started to move, Albert started his attack. He used his Skill that could put his body in a transparent state and then charged toward one of the raptors.
Albert thrust both daggers into his hands at the same time.
*CRAAT!*
*CRAAT!*
"KHIIAAHKK!!!"
The raptor he stabbed let out a scream of pain. Albert proceeds to give more stabs.
*CRAAT!*
*CRAAT!*
*CRAAT!*
...
A few stabs later the raptor lay on the ground covered in blood and wounds. Albert proceeded to attack the other raptors.
Suddenly an arrow came and stuck in the eye of the raptor that Albert wanted to attack. When he looked back, Albert saw Lola jumping for joy.
'So she can finally shoot properly.' Albert smiled proudly. He immediately looked for another target of his dagger.
"I did it!" Lola said, accompanied by a smile full of happiness.
Rosie also smiled proudly. "Yes. Good job."
"It's too early to be happy," Clyde said. "Keep shooting."
"A-Ah, yes." Lola instantly extinguished her happiness and started aiming again.
As usual, Rosie also helped her hold the crossbow.
'She should be able to hold her own crossbow. If she has leveled up, I should tell her to increase her Stats so she can fight on her own as soon as possible,' Clyde thought.
