Chapter 129 - The Bloody Berserker
"Do you want to team up with us?
" Calmly said Lars looking at the
"Bloody Berserker
". He was still very impressed by the power of this monster.
Evan nodded:
"Yes, of course, I`d like to kill it alone and not to risk teaming up with someone else, but I can't handle that opponent on my own.
"
Lars nodded:
"I agree, I`d prefer to do everything myself, too, but if we don't act together there will be no winner in this test at all. Chloe, are you in?
"
The girl nodded:
"Okay, but as soon as the monster isn`t able to stand up, I will attack you and knock you out of the trial.
"
Evan smiled:
"HAH, there`s no need to say that, everyone understands that anyway, we all have the same goal, don't we, Enni?
"
Chloe and Lars turned around and saw Enni standing behind them. During the entire test, she had acted alone, but now even she had decided to team up.
"Yes, what's the plan?
" Enni said briefly.
Evan shrugged and simply said:
"We have a team of three
"Amplifiers
" and one
"Summoner
". Lars has a powerful attack spell, and he also knows a healing spell. The three of us will attack the monster, and Lars will stand behind us and help us. Nothing complicated.
"
The others nodded, Evan was right. They needed to show the best they could and crush the monster with force.
"By the way, don't let him hurt you. It'll drink your blood and get stronger. Apparently, it hadn't eaten for a very long time before the test. Look, its muscles have grown bigger, though it hasn't had enough time to drink much blood.
" Said Evan and pointed in the direction of the
"Bloody Berserker
".
"Every wound we take will increase its power and bring us closer to defeat, I hope you understand that.
"
Chloe, Lars and Enni nodded.
"Looks like our conversation will have to be interrupted.
" Lars said slowly, watching the
"Bloody Berserker
" walk slowly in their direction.
They were behind the root, but it was easy for a monster of this level to smell them and know about their location.
"Well, let's get started then.
" With a smile on his face said Evan and rushed toward the monster.
The others followed his example. They were the only ones, who still remained in this test, which meant they were the best. Each of them was confident in himself and his abilities.
Whoosh.
Chloe was in the lead, while Enni and Evan were running just behind her. Chloe had the best defense of them all, she was going to take the monster's punch, Enni and Evan planned to attack it in the meantime.
Lars, on the other hand, stayed behind as Evan had said. He was going to cast
"Blast of the Edge
" at an opportune moment and inflict a serious wound on the
"Bloody Berserker
". He was also going to heal them if it`s necessary.
Of course, Lars just like the others wanted to kill the
"Bloody Berserker
" by his own and get a reward from the head of
"The Last Moon
". But while the monster was full of strength he was going to help his temporary comrades in every way he could.
Whoosh.
The
"Bloody Berserker
" sprinted in their direction. From where it had just been, many cracks there were along the ground. In just a few moments, it reached Chloe and attacked her from top to bottom.
At the same moment, Chloe's sword began to be covered in a thick layer of stone. She was going to block the monster's attack, not dodge it.
Bam.
The massive black sword clashed with Enni's stone sword, their collision causing many sparks.
"Bloody Berserker
" was much stronger than the girl, even considering its current state.
Chloe couldn't hold off the monster for long, but she didn't need to. Enni and Evan had already attacked the monster.
Bam.
Enni's red-hot fist entered the
"Bloody Berserker's
" left side, while Evan attacked from the left. The frosty blade of his weapon slammed into the monster's armor, freezing part of it.
Whoosh.
Evan and Enni wanted to continue their attack, but the
"Bloody Berserker
" prevented them from doing so. It turned sharply, kicking Chloe with a U-turn. The girl managed to react and blocked the blow with her sword. Nevertheless, the monster's attack was so strong that the stone covering on her weapon was destroyed, and she herself flew several meters away. Now she would have to cast the spell again and waste mana.
After dealing with Chloe, the
"Bloody Berserker
" flung Enni away with a flick of its hand and attacked Evan. The young man blocked the blow with the hilt of his scythe, and just like the others, he flew several meters away.
Whoosh.
At the same moment, a cube of blast energy flew toward the
"Bloody Berserker
". Lars took advantage of the situation and attacked the monster, he was sure that his attack would do a lot of damage to the monster.
"What the...?
" Lars muttered in puzzlement as he saw the monster swing, and throw its sword straight at the cube flying at it.
Boom.
There was a deafening explosion in the air, the sword flew aside, but a few seconds later, it was back in the
"Bloody Berserker's
" left hand.
The weapon was virtually intact, there was only a slight deformation at the very tip, but it was almost imperceptible.
"Fuck! We haven`t even managed to wound it, whereas it scattered all of us in different directions!
" Evan said grudgingly as he looked at the result of their combined attack.
The monster blocked Lars' spell, but Enni and Evan also had little to no success. Evan was unable to cut through the monster's armor completely and reach its body. The
"Bloody Berserker's
" armor was very strong and dense. Evan needed a few pinpoint blows to penetrate it.
The same was true of Enni. Her fiery fist and fiery knuckles left only a small dent in the armor. She could not pierce or melt it.
While the four students were planning their next attack, the teachers were actively discussing their actions and the final monster itself.
"The final monster is great, strong, fast, and able to analyze the situation. If they can kill it, there is no doubt they will be one of the best students in the future!
"
The man in the platinum mantle said enthusiastically. He was thoroughly impressed by the final phase of this challenge.
"I agree, but I think this monster might be out of their league. If it drinks any more blood, they're not likely to be able to handle it. What's more, they need to act in concert and not let anyone drop out. I think only together they can overpower it.
"
Said the girl in the silver mantle, scrutinizing the
"Bloody Berserker
". It was able to take a few hits and was barely even hurt, but that was to be expected.
"It's too early to draw any conclusions yet, overall their attack was successful, they need to keep going. Once they break the monster's armor, it will be much easier for them.
"
The teachers continued to discuss the young men, who were already preparing to strike next.
