BXBX NOVEL Chapter 50 High Pain
Chapter 50 High Pain
"Boss, should we retreat for the time being?" Roza looked at her surroundings with unease. She wasn\'t enjoying being stared at by a hundred monkeys.
"We can do this!" RedBand said. "Roza, take high ground and shower the monkeys with arrows. PamPam and Andyy, keep the Steel-Armed Gorilla busy. Felixar, help them. Ambrose and I will gather the aggro of the monkeys!"
"And how will we do that?" Ambrose asked.
"With this!" RedBand took out a moldy loaf of bread from his inventory. "One-Leg Marcus told me one thing. The Steel-Armed Monkeys can\'t stand the smell of moldy bread!"
Ambrose looked around and chuckled. All the monkeys were staring at RedBand with bloodshot eyes.
"Go!" RedBand shouted and hurled the moldy bread towards the entrance of the village. All the monkeys shot forward and charged straight at the moldy loaf of bread as if it were their greatest enemy.
The ground shook as so many monkeys ran at the same time.
Roza climbed to the top of the wall and started firing arrows towards the running monkeys.
PamPam and Andyy approached the Steel-Armed Gorilla. They felt very tiny and powerless in its presence.
Steel-Armed Gorilla lowered its gaze and raised its steel arm. It clenched its paw and smashed it down on the two small humans.
PamPam and Andyy dodged the large paw, but the shockwave of the attack sent them tumbling across the ground.
"Raaaah!" The Steel-Armed Gorilla shouted powerfully and pounded its steel paws at its large, muscular chest.
"I will keep it busy!" Felixar shouted and smashed its shield against the gorilla\'s large leg. The strength of the powerful tackle was nothing to scoff at.
The gorilla stumbled to the side and looked angrily at the small human. It lifted his enormous arm and slammed its pawn down to the ground.
Felixar rolled on the ground, narrowly dodging the gorilla\'s powerful blow. He then grabbed the shield with both hands and charged straight at the gorilla. The blunt force of the attack pushed the gorilla to the ground.
"Roaaaaaar!" The Gorilla swung its large paw and slapped at the shield. Felixar gritted his teeth and was sent hurling across the village by the gorilla\'s powerful attack.
He quickly managed to make contact with the ground with his boots before he flew all the way to where the monkeys were.
The gorilla pounded its paws against its chest again, but then it felt sharp pain on both of its legs. It let out a deafening scream.
PamPam and Andyy stabbed its legs with their steel spears. They then quickly backed away while the gorilla wreaked havoc by stomping and punching the ground.
The gorilla was now in a rage, and it began to charge at PamPam and Andyy.
Ambrose fought against the Steel-Armed Monkeys. He impaled one of the monkeys to the ground, but the number of monkeys was overwhelming, and they managed to land a few punches.
[-15 HP!]
Ambrose almost fell to his knees but managed to force himself to stand. Another punch from the steel arm headed towards his face. He quickly backstepped and used his right-handed sword to deflect the punch.
Since the arm was made of steel, he couldn\'t cut it apart.
Ambrose swung his left-handed sword and sliced clean through the monkey\'s face. The monkey collapsed sideways.
He walked right over the dead monkey and finished off another monkey, which he had injured beforehand. He then turned to rest of monkeys and saw RedBand suffering great amount of damage even though Roza was trying to help him.
"Cursed!" Ambrose looked to the ground and soon found the moldy loaf of bread. He reached for it, grabbed it, and rubbed the scent into his clothing.
The monkeys smelled the disgusting stench and turned towards the black-haired young man. They screamed and stomped towards him with their long arms outstretched.
"Dual Basic Slash!" Ambrose sliced through several monkeys and quickly blocked the following attacks by the monkeys.
He quickly backstepped and continued deflecting, parrying, and dodging the punches thrown by the monkeys.
The sparks flew across the air as the sword and the steel arm crossed paths.
RedBand munched on food to restore his health, and once he returned to full health, he chased after the monkeys to assist Ambrose.
Ambrose managed to catch a breath after some of the pressure was taken off his shoulders, but he was still greatly pressured by dozens of the monkeys, who only wanted to see him bleeding dry on the ground.
A Steel-Armed Monkey launched forward and blocked a sword strike with his steel forearm. It also noticed another sword appearing from the side, but it quickly ducked and slammed its steel fist into Ambrose\'s ribcage.
"Argh!" Ambrose groaned as he fell to the ground. He saw shadows fall over him and looked above. There were over a dozen monkeys looking at him with their blood-red eyes.
"Shit..."
SMACK, SMACK, SMACK!
The monkeys started smashing their steel fists down at the fallen player. A terrifying sound of flesh getting smashed and bones getting broken filled the air.
"Ambrose!" RedBand shouted and cursed inwardly as he couldn\'t help him. More and more monkeys closed in on him.
Ambrose felt heavy fists landing on his chest, breaking something in his body. A few fists landed on his face, causing numbness to spread everywhere. The health bar also depleted at a scary speed.
Soon, a blow landed on his head, knocking him unconscious for a few seconds before he woke up with a headache and blood dripping from his nose.
\'A headache? I can feel a headache?\' Ambrose\'s vision went blurry, and he could barely see the fists that were breaking his body apart.
\'Am I going to die... No, I don\'t want to return to that harsh reality just yet. I am not done yet!\' Ambrose screamed hoarsely. "KILL!"
The swords slashed cleanly through the nearby monkeys.
Ambrose jumped to his feet and angrily waved his swords around, slaughtering the monkeys with inhumane ferocity.
"Ambrose, I will buy time; fill your health!" RedBand shouted and ran to his side. However, to his shock, Ambrose didn\'t stop swinging his swords and continued massacring the monkeys.
"What the hell..?"
\'I feel it...\' Ambrose thought as he felt a strange sensation in his body. He started smiling as he cut down another monkey. \'I can feel it... Another skill came to mind.
\'It is perfect.\'
[Skill has been successfully created!]
[Do you want to name your skill?]
[Y/N]
"Yes!" Ambrose shouted and slashed down another monkey. Blue blood splattered across his pale face.
[Choose the name!]
"High Pain!"
[Skill "High Pain" has been created!]
[High Pain: Attack with increased pain - 100% Chance of Stun]
"Wohoo..." Ambrose took a deep breath and stopped moving. His Kill deactivated after he finished killing every monkey near him.
He had heard several dings during his fight, meaning he had leveled up without noticing.
RedBand was still fighting against monkeys, but he had taken notice of Ambrose and his crazy massacre.
\'How did he do that?\' RedBand wondered in shock. \'He was unstoppable!\'
Ambrose lifted his head and looked coldly at one of the monkeys that were chasing after RedBand. He shot forward and appeared behind the monkey.
The Steel-Armed Monkey saw a shadow and turned around with a screaming face.
"High Pain!" Ambrose powerfully swung the sword down and sliced across the monkey\'s body, leaving a deep and everlasting scar behind. The monkey looked stunned, as it couldn\'t move a muscle.
It also caused an unbelievable amount of pain. A pain that was so strong that it could not even scream out loud.
"Basic Slash!" Ambrose finished off the monkey with one of the basic movies. He cut the monkey\'s head off, letting it roll down the ground as more blood poured onto the soil.
RedBand finished off the rest of the monkeys and looked at Ambrose with a profound gaze. He hadn\'t seen such an insane fighting style before.
"Ambrose, you..."
"We should go help the others." Ambrose said and looked at the far-away gorilla with squinted eyes. "The fight is far from over."
"Alright..." RedBand nodded and ran after Ambrose. The positions had changed. This time, he was following after the black-haired young man as if he were the leader.
\'He is not someone I want to fight against...\'
