Chapter 304

Defense Specialization and Meeting Up 3

The map was getting smaller, and since strong players tended to cooperate when bumping into each other, two such top players were currently together as they faced a pack of monsters .

“Tsk! Can’t we do something about their numbers!”

“And this is even with the right attributes…!”

Misery and Chrome were currently surrounded by dozens of monsters as they looked for a chance to escape .
The two of them had cooperated in the jungle during the previous event, but unlike then, they could now recover their HP .
Most of Misery’s MP was used to heal Chrome, and Chrome was continually pushed to the brink of death, only to return .
This repeated over and over again .

“Necro, ‘Burst Flame’!”

“‘Holy Spear’!”

Misery’s magic was supposed to be effective against these devil-like monsters .
However, she was a healer and he was a great shield wielder .
They did not have enough attack power together .

“I won’t die! But I can’t kill!”

“Yes… It seems like more monsters keep getting summoned…”

Chrome and Misery still had damage reduction skills, damage nullifying skills, and resurrection skills .
This toughness, where they could come back even after falling once or even twice, was something that even Maple Tree would find hard to do .

Chrome continued to change Necro’s form as he switched between attacking and defense .

“While we can survive, these things are fast… Misery, can’t you do something!?”

“…Hold on there! I have something promising!”

“Okay! I trust you! ‘Revitalize’! Necro ‘Ghost Armor – Robust’!”

Chrome changed Necro to a defense specialized form, and blocked all of the attacks .
He would buy time, just like Misery had said .
As both were good when it came to healing, they could resort to these kinds of tactics in spite of taking damage .
Unlike Mi, Chrome had a great shield and did not need to attack .
He could make use of his powerful guard and survive while being surrounded by monsters .
This tense battle continued for quite some time .
And Chrome slowly lost his ability to concentrate as the amount of projectiles increased .

“I guess it depends on ‘Dead or Alive .
’ …I hope this help is going to arrive soon!”

“Yes, it’s fine .
I think it’s here now .
”

“Hmm? Ohh!?”

Just as Misery said it, giant balls of fire rained down and enveloped the monsters .
The fire that Chrome unleashed with the help of Necro could not compare to this .
Chrome had had to slowly chip away at their HP, and now they were being annihilated in a flash .

“Woah…amazing…”

“Phew .
That’s a relief .
Thank you, Mi .
”

“Ah, I’m glad you’re alright, Misery .
Hmm .
So there’s a Maple Tree member here as well .
”

“Huh? Did you meet someone else?”

“One of the twins .
I think it was Mai .
But I took her to Maple .
”

“Oh! Thank you .
”

“Mi .
What should we do now?”

“Shin and Marx are likely alive .
Let’s meet up with them .
”

“Hmm… Then can I go with you?”

Chrome said .
The two of them looked puzzled .
After all, Chrome’s goal was completely different from theirs .

“Well, it’s just that I heard the screams of other players before meeting up with Misery .
And if players are meeting up like this in such a huge field, I think we’re all being teleported pretty close together .
”

In that case, perhaps members of Maple Tree would be close to Marx or Shin .

Furthermore, Mi and the others could use a reliable shield bearer .
There were plenty of merits for taking him along .

“I don’t mind .
What about you, Misery?”

“No, I don’t mind .
”

“Then it’s settled .
”

And so the three of them got onto Ignis’s back and rose into the sky .

“Are they around here?”

“A little farther .
On the other side of the mountain .
”

“Maybe they don’t want us to unite with the others… While the field is shrinking, it’s still pretty big .
”

“Maybe it will change again on the third day .
In any case, we have to create our bases before its time for the strong monsters to come out .
”

While the place was overflowing with devil-like monsters, and they were strong, that didn’t mean they were the enhanced monsters for the second day .

If they weren’t able to unite with the others soon, the number of casualties would increase .

“I hope I find one of my friends along the way… Huh?”

“What is it?”

“I think one of them might be here .
I remember a similar explosion from the first day .
”

Chrome saw the flashes of thunder and fire that tore through the darkness in front of them .
And he was immediately reminded of a certain crafter who was quite scary when she was angry .
