Battle of Snow Mountain (2)

Ryu Han-bin’s situation wasn’t as comfortable as the Aliens thought.

He was still going back and forth between life and death.

“Ugh! Ugh!”

Lethal attacks continued to flow towards him. Han-bin knew he could die if he made a little mistake.

magic spells continued to bombard him from a distance.

They were all strong Aliens who were approaching level 100. Their power was likewise enormous.

Moreover, their strength didn’t just lie from high levels.

“Blink!”

Akwashi, the black Alien, avoided his attack with short-distance teleportation magic.

It was the power of an artifact ring, the Blink ring on his finger.

Alice, the Mage, recovered from the minor wounds alone.

“Heal!”

Jeffrey, the Spiritist, was able to defend from Ryu Han-bin’s Aura Strike.

“Spirit of Dragons!”

The Mage was using spiritual skills while the Spiritist was using Magic Swordsmanship.

Of course, Ryu Han-bin knew the reason behind that.

He even checked it using the Guideline.

[Absolute Cure Bracelet (Artifact)

Casts the highest level of healing on the wearer.

Level Requirement: Lv. 70 Number of uses: 2/3 times a day]

[Dragon’s Power Necklace (Artifact)

Allows the user to use level 83 Magic Swordsmanship technique, Spirit of Dragons.

Level Requirement: Lv. 80 Number of uses: 1/2 times a day.]

Arthur and his group were armed with additional equipment such as the Blink-series Artifacts.

They took those tools from the Hunters of Latna after murdering them.

Thanks to those artifacts, it became even more difficult for Han-bin to deal with them.

The same went for his current opponents.

They weren’t simply armed with weapons supplied in batches.

They had of additional tools other than the ones they received due to their high level.

They were powerful tools.

‘As expected, it’s annoying to deal with high-level people in this neighborhood.’

There were too many tactical and strategic points to pay attention to, like the warrior using magic, the Mage using spiritual arts, and the Spiritist using Magic Swordsmanship.

‘Damn…’

Even if he focused on defense, Han-bin kept shedding blood.

It had been a long time since he tried not to show his pain, but his breathing was becoming ragged.

Nevertheless, he didn’t collapse.

He held on.

Ryu Han-bin’s skills had also risen considerably.

It was thanks to his struggle with Leon Hart.

Experience was said to be the best teacher, and though they only fought once, he still gained a lot of knowledge from it.

Experiencing the tactics of three Aliens at the Grand Maze Kaltan was also helpful.

However, there was another reason why Han-bin could endure this much.

Pit performed a spectacular sword technique, scattering blue Blade Aura.

-Spring Seven Attacks!

Han-bin didn’t know the skill name, but sharp Blade Aura flew towards the whole body’s seven vital points.

Ryu Han-bin calmly linked his shoulders and wrists to dig into the loopholes in the battle.

-Aura Splash!

The timing was appropriate, so Han-bin’s red Aura connected before Pit’s offensive.

Pit gave up, pulling back with his sword.

He wanted to go after him, but he couldn’t.

Before he knew it, Alice was preparing for an extra magic attack.

“You who tear the flames, come into my hands…”

Han-bin couldn’t let her complete the spell.

Ryu Han-bin gave up on Pit and focused on Alice.

-Aura Strike!

The red Aura Bullets shot towards her.

In fright, she stopped casting the magic spell and avoided it instead.

“Ahhhhhh!”

It was best to finish her since he had made a gap in the opponent’s stance.

However, Han-bin had to give up again that time.

Suyen was casting a spell!

-Magic Swordsmanship: Sky-Cutting Thunderstorm!

Dozens of electric shocks poured down on him like rain.

Han-bin blocked the technique by changing the position of Gigant with both hands.

“Taaah!”

Thunder and Blade Aura collided against each other, creating explosions.

Boom!

Staring at the retreating Suyen, Ryu Han-bin gasped.

‘You’re taking turns at hitting me.’

They had been doing that since a while ago.

He glanced at Kibie for a moment.

‘Fortunately, they’re only after me.’

When fighting against a large force alone, defeating them one by one was important.

It would be advantageous to have a tactic that could take them out individually while staying out of the opponent’s range through good positioning.

However, Han-bin couldn’t do it.

Getting out of the opponent’s range meant that the opponent was also out of his range.

If Han-bin missed any Alien, he or she would aim at Kibie or Artis, and Han-bin wouldn’t be able to protect them right away.

Therefore, when he faced Arthur at Kaltan, he struggled to deal with the three simultaneously.

And Han-bin was fighting against six Aliens.

No matter how skilled Ryu Han-bin was, it was impossible to simultaneously put everyone in his attack range.

Furthermore, he wasn’t very skilled in combat against large forces.

During his days in the Rocky Mountain, he fought against individual big demon dogs, and he had never fought large and powerful forces in Latna.

Han-bin had just unilaterally beaten the weak.

He had no choice but to fight and retreat.

Han-bin could endure their assaults because he didn’t overdo it, but of course, he missed his opponents several times.

Nevertheless, no Aliens were attacking Kibie.

They were only going after Ryu Han-bin.

It was fortunate for Han-bin, but it also made him curious.

‘Why?’

Their target was the incarnation of Darkness, not him.

‘Is there any other reason?’

* * *

Kibie, Artis, and Effir were engaged in a fierce battle against the middle-aged Spiritist Gabe and the Dragons Almara and Saltus.

With the left and right swords crossed, Effir performed colorful sword dances.

-Magic Swordsmanship: Storm thunder!

A sudden storm swirled through the graceful dance moves.

The Artis’s fire magic followed it.

“Flame Strike!”

It didn’t work.

“Althea’s light, descend upon the earth!”

Saltus’s defensive spiritual art blocked Effir’s sudden storm through the barrier.

Almara defended them from the fire spell using water magic.

“Echo of the waves, Aqua Wave!”

Boom!

In the magnificent explosion, Effir and Artis bounced back.

“Gasp…”

While catching her breath, Effir fixed her posture.

She then clicked her tongue.

‘Hmm, you don’t want to turn into a Dragon.’

She was working hard so that Almara and Saltus wouldn’t return to their original forms.

As soon as they turned into Dragons, she would revert them back into their human forms.

It was useless.

Looking at Ryu Han-bin fighting against the Aliens far away, the two Dragons smiled.

“Without that Valtara monster…”

“The rest of them are easy to handle.”

They didn’t have to become Dragons.

They were also a level 82 Mage and a level 79 Spiritist as humans.

The only thing they feared was the giant Valtara warrior. The rest were not difficult to handle at all.

Besides, behind them was Gabe, a level 99 powerful Spiritist!

“Preleu, put your power into my hands!”

Gabe pulled Prana up through hand signatures.

The atmosphere agglomerated and turned into a gigantic wind spirit.

The wind giant burst into a roar and began to rush forward.

Bam!

The black-haired woman stood in front of him with her hair fluttering.

“Whirl!”

She turned the spear like a windmill and sprinkled black Aura.

At the same time, she hit the edge of the spear and fired a dozen Aura Bullets!

-Aura Strike!

The Aura Bullets raged towards the wind giant.

Boom!

The wind giant shook for a while and soon ran back.

Grrr!

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Since he was such a powerful wind spirit, it was hard to damage him with level 80 Aura Bullets.

“Oh, my God!”

Kibie cursed him as she propelled herself forward.

She penetrated the opponent’s arms, stabbed him in a row, and cut him, over and over again, using Black Aura.

The giant also waved both of its stormy arms against her.

The storm’s body became steel to attack, and it became air to dodge.

As time went by, Kibie began to lose ground.

“Argh!”

Gabe smiled as he watched Kibie.

‘This shouldn’t take too long.’

* * *

If only one of the six Aliens facing Ryu Han-bin had turned that way, the situation would’ve already ended.

But Gabe didn’t do that.

As Han-bin’s questioned, he had a clear reason for deliberately excluding the Aliens.

‘I can’t hurt the incarnation of the goddess.’

Hollien’s orders were strict.

-Capture the incarnation of Darkness and bring it to me.

He needed to capture her.

It wasn’t a matter of life or death.

But what if he let the Aliens fight the Goddess?

The ultimate goal of the Aliens was to kill the Goddess of Latna.

When they achieved that goal, they would get the right to return to Earth with all kinds of favors.

So everyone was eager to get the Goddess.

‘They can kill the incarnation at will, right?’

Of course, it wasn’t recognized as the murder of a Goddess unless the Goddess’s existence disappeared, no matter how many times the incarnation was killed.

That was for sure.

Archmage Genovia, who had studied the Aliens for a long time, had already confirmed it.

And Garhan’s forbidden spell requirement clearly stated that they had to ‘capture the Goddess alive.’

If someone killed the Goddess, they would be killed mercilessly.

So it could be said that there was no possibility that they would kill the incarnation of Darkness…

‘I have no idea about what they’re thinking.’

Gabe couldn’t trust the Aliens.

They weren’t understandable using Latna’s common sense.

They were also crazy people who were hell-bent on killing people.

What if they ignored their life and killed the incarnation to screw with the four strongest individuals who locked them up?

Besides, life and death were both bound to happen sooner or later.

Gabe and the Ancient Dragons had served them for a long time, even at the expense of their lives. Hence they could put the life of the incarnation before their own.

But would Aliens do the same thing?

‘We can’t take that risk.’

Gabe purposely turned all the Aliens’ attention to the Valtara warrior.

Except for the Valtara warrior, they could defeat the members of the party by themselves.

‘Safely and surely follow their orders!’

Kibie bounced off of the wind giant’s strike.

Thud!

The woman rolled more than 10 meters, digging into the snow.

Snow scattered all over the already-blizzard-covered land.

“Ugh…”

Gabe once again drew a sign aimed at the groaning Kibie.

“Rhamniana’s torrent, let it soar and fall!”
