Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 147

Chapter 147: Temporarily Sealing the Crack
“Temporarily seal the crack,” Riya said calmly.

“How?”

“You can destroy the remaining building to fill the crack and then rush out,” Riya replied. If she had to make the killing formation, she had to clean up the magic beasts and ensure that there were no magic beasts coming out or around it for a period of time.

Looking at this crack, there were still many magic beasts crawling out. The small size should have limited these magic beasts from coming out.

Samuel’s eyes flashed with a light. “Let’s do that. I’ll make the breakthrough point, Arnold, you prepare to throw the bomb.”

“Got it.”

“…You’re carrying a bomb?” Amelia nearly screamed when she heard this.

“Is it so surprising to carry a bomb?” Arnold asked back helplessly and then ran out to prepare the fuse. During this time, Sean and Joan also came up to cover him.

“I…”

“You stay here.” Riya pulled Amelia before she rushed out and helped these three. She could see that Amelia hadn’t fully recovered and her mediation was interrupted from time to time.

With Amelia’s personality, it was hard for her to meditate calmly. Unlike Sean who could devote himself to recover his mana, Amelia was disturbed and the mana she restored didn’t even reach half of her usual mana.

Considering that Amelia was only a rank 1 magic warrior, this amount of mana was dangerous.

Riya didn’t want to see Amelia in danger.

“But…”

“Don’t worry about them. You should protect the truck from the escaped magic beast instead.”

“This… fine.” Amelia nodded and stood beside the car, taking a deep breath.

Riya saw Amelia’s appearance and smiled faintly. She could see that Amelia had slowly adapted to this situation and was no longer the same careless girl as before. Well, if they were outside combat, she could guarantee Amelia would go back to her usual personality. But during combat, she was solemn and serious.

Because Amelia knew that this was a battle of life and death.

“Don’t worry, I’ll cover your back,” Riya said slowly.

“Ok.” Amelia nodded.

To be honest, Riya had no intention to make a move at all from the very beginning. Because she knew that these unranked magic beasts were the weakest magic beasts that they could possibly find. They were also the perfect opponent for these people who were either ordinary people or just rank 1 magic warrior.

Through using the unranked magic beasts, they would hone their fighting skills and thus develop themselves.

Of course, if the were to be in danger, Riya would make a move.

She believed that it was unnecessary, though. There was still Samuel who could make a move on his own.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Slash!

The battle continued and these magic beasts fell one by one. At this point, Samuel and the others could not care about their bodies and focused on killing and opening a path on the front.

Samuel looked at Arnold and the others, who had already planted the bomb and set the timer.

“Get ready!” Arnold yelled and they ran to their respective cars.

“Get inside, stupid sister!”

“Ah, I know, you stupid brother!” Amelia yelled back at Sean and entered the car. She looked at Arnold who also entered and then crouched down. She quickly followed suit.

Riya looked at their appearance and smiled faintly. She raised her hand and formed a faint barrier to block the effect of the explosion beside the car.

BOOM!

There was a loud explosion.

The building that was already half destroyed because of these magic beasts crawling out and the earthquake shook once more. Then, the walls could no longer support it and it came crumbling down.

Boom! Boom!

It fell down and some of it fell on top of the crack, stopping the magic beasts that were trying to crawl up. Some of them might even died because they were crushed to death.

“Now!”

Samuel looked at the front and raised his sword. He took a deep breath and muttered, “lightning sword slash!”

Swish! Slash!

A bright slash came up, traveled dozens of meters and cut down all the magic beasts in front of him. In just a moment, countless magic beasts were chopped down and the rest were completely charred due to the lightning, their corpse were unrecognizable.

The few magic beasts around it were struck on their place, unable to move due to the lightning’s effect.

“Awesome.” Amelia saw this and was dumbfounded. She knew her brother was powerful, but this was the first time she saw her brother’s strength for the first time.

That strike…

Just one strike, Amelia was sure that it would be more than enough to destroy a building.

“Indeed.” Arnold was also shocked, but he quickly turned on the car and started driving. Samuel was using this skill to create a path for them to go, so he couldn’t waste this time at all.

‘That’s a rank 4 sword skill…’

Riya watched the long strike that completely opened up the path and her lips twitched. She knew that rank 4 skills, be it warrior skills or magic spells or others, were definitely very powerful. Dealing with a bunch of unranked magic beasts, rank 4 sword skills were definitely overkill.

And Riya sighed deeply in her heart.

This was one of the main reasons why she would never want to fight with a magic warrior in her life, especially one with high weapon’s attainment. Because their one strike was more than enough to destroy her formation that she had built carefully.

Their offense power was terrible.

Riya sighed and wondered that if she were to use a rank 4 defensive formation, would she be able to block that attack?

Thankfully, Riya also knew that at magic warrior rank 4, Samuel could only use that move one or twice. It was very destructive but at the same time, it also consumed a lot of mana and for a newly advanced rank 4, once or twice would consume their entire mana reserve.
