Chapter 71 Dungeon Break (Part-5)On the land of thousand lakes, a tank was traveling at 80km/hr, hitting its maximum speed.
Due to a long detour to take the enemy from surprise and also due to not-so-good pathway, it took an entire half an hour for Mark to successfully reach the other side of the army.
He pressed the brakes and stopped the Tank, about half a kilometer away upon finally seeing the outer layer of the formation.
"Hmm, what are those two?"
Through the screens, Mark saw two giant hounds along with tiny ones. He doesn't know their grade or their strength but the least he could estimate that they were fierce beasts and probably of the 4-circle realm or above. This was the first thing he assumed.
But, then, as he zoomed in and observed the battlefield, he found there were three more two-headed giant hounds on the other side and they appeared to be in the middle of battle.
"Five of them? And too large in size. So, that means they were probably the mini-bosses. 6-circle realm, eh. But, where is my target?" Mark's vision was quite narrow and there were explosions, arrows, attacks, everywhere. So, he couldn't see the details of the battle clearly.
This wasn't a problem since he doesn't care about it in the first place. The only thing that matters is the dungeon overlord.
If six-circle realm beasts are more than 300ft big, then, how big their boss would be? At the very least, it should be the biggest of them all but Mark can't spot the beast.
Mark was clueless.
It was then, all of a sudden, he spotted the second prince flying into the sky with his fiery wings.
"It's Shang Wen." Mark hurriedly zoomed in.
The second prince appeared to have a sword of blazing flames in his hands as he dived down.
"The position seemed like it is the center of the formation. Is the boss over there?" Mark wondered.
"Before going there, I need to take care of these beasts that seemed to be free without any work." Mark stood up on his feet and climbed the ladder and opened the entrance.
Once he got out of it, his body started to shiver uncontrollably. His breathing became heavier too. Mark immediately went back to the front chamber.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Phew… what was that?" He placed his hand on his heart. It suddenly started to beat rapidly.
<strong>*Ding! The host's strength is inadequate to stay in a 1 km radius of a seven-circle beast king. </strong>
<strong>*Ding! Please move back 253 meters or more to annul this effect.</strong>
The system notified him right away about the pressure generated by these higher realm beasts on 1-circle spirit warriors like him.
"I see. This is why, huh. I guess I underestimated a beast king. Wait a second." Mark read the lines between those words and realized something else. "That means my suspicion is right. The beast king is here."
Taking a deep breath, Mark turned around the tank and drove farther away for a couple of minutes before stopping it and turning around again.
He then finally got out of the tank and looked at the towering beasts, far away. "Damn, they are as big as Bahntower."
After getting into the rear chamber, Mark saw controls before him and a storage chamber behind him.
He opened the storage chamber and saw more than twenty 120mm ammunition, which are created while he was on the way. After several failures and a few successes, he now owed more than 300 10-carat ether crystals of low grade to the system. That's worth 3000 gold coins according to the market price.
However, Mark didn't feel any regret at all. Considering no human army is on this side of the formation, he was free to go on a rampage too.
Such a thought caused excitement in his heart and brought a grin to his face.
Mark proceeded to take one of the 120 mm rounds in his arms. "man, this is fucking heavy."
18 kilograms might be indeed heavy for someone like Mark that has low physical strength but the thought of bombarding the enemies made all the pain go away and he successfully loaded the round.
After taking the controls of the cannon, he aimed at the two-headed hound in his 1 o'clock direction and was more than 750 meters away.
If its size is smaller, Mark would have worried about locking the target from this far away but the beast was over 300ft.
<strong>*Ding! The target is locked.</strong>
Mark clicked the trigger.
*Boom*
For a moment, the whole battlefield went silent as one of the heads of Orthus beast burst into bits and it cried in pain.
After a few more seconds, before the beast get to spot the attacker, another 120mm was fired and blew up the other head, effectively ending its life.
The second prince and Cerberus halted their battle for a second and looked at the source.
As the headless Orthus fell on its back, forcing the adjacent inner layer of the formation to be disrupted right away, Shang Wen spotted the tank that was parked more than a km away.
"It's him." A smile appeared on his face. "The strength of that weapon is as real as the rumors, after all. At the same time, the range is insanely high. Only Archers and Mages of the seven-circle realm can attack the target from that far away."
Meanwhile, Cerberus was angered. "Who dared to kill my brothers?"
Unlike Shang Wen, Cerberus didn't even understand how it happened.
The second prince opened his mouth, taunting the beast to gain attention, "you still have an option of surrender and save your subordinates."
"You…" Cerberus dashes towards him in rage. The second prince blocks the claws but was pushed back for a few meters before he flew towards the sky and dived again, slashing at the beast.
*Boom*
Another powerful explosion was heard, repeating the same scene with another Orthus, which is on standby.
Cerberus was distracted by the cry of one of its loyal guardians and the second prince successfully inflicted damage on its shoulder.
Shang Wen's sword was stuck in Cerberus' shoulder. He spoke coldly, "burn."
The flames on the blade increased their intensity, making the overlord cry in pain and rage.
*Boom*
The fourth explosion occurred and its second guardian was down. It was then the dungeon overlord finally realized the source of the attacks on Orthus beasts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You, I will destroy everyone." Cerberus roared in rage and transformed back into 1000ft beast, freeing itself.
The second prince was pushed away by the force. With the help of wings, he saved himself from crashing onto the ground.
*Woof* *Woof* Woof*
The three heads barked once again.
As soon as the orders were passed, the hounds that were staying in the formation rushed out forward, suddenly.
Meanwhile, the second prince unleashed his skills while flying higher to Cerberus' eye level.
<strong>"The flaming sword of Eternity." "Wrath of the Phoenix Flare."</strong>
Shang Wen raised his semi-divine grade sword as he unleashed his swordsman skill. It was becoming bigger each second.
At the same time, his free left hand is conjuring a scarlet flame. The flame was also getting bigger and started to take the shape of a Phoenix.
Unlike others, he was a twin-profession spirit warrior, although he only possessed a single attribute of fire. He can unleash mage skills and swordsman skills at the same time.
The scarlet flames in the form of phoenix rushed towards the beast while a giant 200ft big flaming sword was formed in Shang Wen's hands.
*Woof* Woof* Woof*
The three heads barked once again, but this time, they weren't just loud but they generated powerful sound waves like a sonic boom.
The flaming phoenix, the four-circle beasts, the three-circle beasts, nearby experts, the second prince, everyone in 100-meter range was pushed away with a powerful sound wave. The eardrums of the three-circle realm experts were ruptured, the four-circle realm experts started to feel dizzy.
Cerberus then locked onto the second prince who once again managed to resist the attack and was flying towards it.
The three-headed hound lightly kicked the ground and took a leap towards the incoming enemy.
Within a fraction of a second, it was already before the second prince and the hound raised its paw and swatted him with its full strength.
Shang Wen was hit directly and flew back, crashing onto the rocks on the hill without able to resist it.
Once it took care of the pest, the beast finally turned around and looked at the tank that was coming from behind.
"It's your turn, Killer of my siblings," Cerberus roared in human tongue and leaped towards its next target.
