Chapter 58 – Battle Between the Sword and the Shield

There were a total of 7 players. The two berserkers were level 31 and the party consisted of another healer, archer, musketeer and mage. In addition to this, there was a level 32 monk with heavy armor. Overall this team combination was perfect for targeting bosses. Also, to level up to 32 as a monk certainly wasn't an easy task, which showed how well of a player that monk was.

The captain seemed to be the berserker carrying a shining axe, above his avatar were the words, "Mu Tain", and judging by its looks, the axe should be a silver tiered item; its attack damage surely wouldn't be low. Though the biggest problem was probably their long ranged attackers, since I had no way of blocking or escaping it. A single round of attack from the entire team would probably be capable of killing me.

......

Under a tree I smiled and asked: "I'm simply walking around collecting Indigo Seaweed, doing nothing to you. Why would you want to kill me?"

Mu Tain waved his axe and laughed: "By killing you, we would earn a thousand gold. So of course we want to kill you. Do you have any last words before you die?"

I stayed silent for a second, before I said: "This Deep Cold Forest is my domain, if you aren't afraid, you can come and try to kill me."

Immediately afterwards, I rushed into the Forest and since it was nighttime the visibility for everyone was poor and I vanished out of their sight.

Mu Tain paused before saying: "Release your pets, we will let them find him for us. Today is the day that Xiao Yao Zi Zai dies!"

Moments later, a few bats, goblins, and other pets were summoned. None of them had a truly outstanding attack force, therefore being a limited threat.

......

"Rustle......"

As my battle boots stepped on the moist grass, I slowly walked through the forest. I was kind of scared of facing a 7-member team; if they came at me all at once, I would definitely die. But if I focused on my strengths and pinpointed their weaknesses, I would have a good chance in killing them. I would use Baby Bobo's mobility to assassinate their healer before moving on to the squishies: the mage, archer, and musketeer.

I began to flank to the side of their party and raising my hand, I summoned Baby Bobo. He flew towards the healer as quick as a bolt of lightning, broke through their defense line and used his LV4 [Combo]

"Crap!"

The healer immediately moved backwards and first hit of the combo missed, but Baby Bobo continued with his combo and two solid damages flew up.

"489！"

"512！"

Damn! The healer didn't die. He must have added at least 5 points to endurance each time he leveled up in order to gain such a high health. While I thought this, Baby Bobo did a basic attack and the healer dropped to the ground

Mu Tain quickly turned around and shouted loudly: "Musketeer and archer target and butcher his pet!"

The bullets and arrows almost immediately locked on to Baby Bobo and even though Baby Bobo's defense was decent it wasn't enough to stop their high attack power. They dealt a little over 500 damage and in addition, the mage cast a [Rock Spike] and [Chilling Wind] on Baby Bobo

"+600！"

I stayed in the dark while I cast the Heal on Baby Bobo. Afterwards, I commanded Baby Bobo to retreat from the battlefield. If he stayed there, he'd be a target practice for them!
