  Attacking The Main Base 2

  Serulis’s jaw dropped.

  “Wh-what just happened?”


  “Attacks with mass cannot be stopped by raising magic defenses. Because it is physical.”


  The meteors were just heated boulders. They fell and dealt physical damage.

  Barriers that were focused on magic defense could then be easily destroyed.

  “Th-that may be true, but……”


  “Ruck. Serulis doesn’t even understand why you were able to summon twelve meteors at once.”


  Goran said with a laugh.

  Serulis was good with a sword, but she was still a newcomer as an Adventurer. She wasn’t used to seeing magic.

  “I see. Well, you’ll get used to the idea.”


  “Re-really?”


  Serulis looked like she couldn’t believe it.

  “Maybe I should make it a little easier to get in.”


  “Thank you, Ruck.”


  I nodded back and then slammed the dust-filled area with Explosion.

  It was the strongest one that I could manage.

  It converted high-density magic energy into heat in an instant. And the caused it to expand suddenly.

  —DDDDOOOOOOOOO

  The shock waves were even stronger than the ones caused by the meteors.

  The trees that had been torn from their roots now went up in flames.

  Even the trees that did not burn were cut down by the shock waves.

  Up in the sky, Dorgo swayed a little.

  “Now. Let’s charge on in. I bet all but the Arch Vampires are dead.”


  “Un-understood.”


  Goran immediately held Serulis’s arm. I held Grulf and Shia.

  Dorgo was diving. If we weren’t careful, we could be thrown off.

  “Hahhh.”


  Shia shrieked quietly. Even she had to hold her tail between her legs.

  “GGGGGRAAAAA!!!”


  Grulf howled and shook.

  When we were close to the ground, we could see the damage that the meteors and Explosion had done.

  There were broken magic machines. About seventy of them.

  And corpses of evil dragons as well.

  I didn’t see any dead vampires. I wanted to think it was because they burned up, but you couldn’t be too careful.

  And then we found an entrance that seemed to lead underground.

  Eric called out in a loud voice.

  “They are inside. Keep your guard up!”


  “Aye!”


  Dorgo stopped just above the ground. And we all quickly jumped off of his back. Nothing else around us moved.

  And so we headed towards the entrance. It was locked, but I was able to open it with magic.

  At the same time, I fired off a succession of Fireballs for good measure.

  After the third one hit, a vampire came running out.

  He was covered in flames but his flesh was not burning.

  Eric quickly slashed at him, but the vampire dodged the attack.

  Goran stepped in and attacked as well, but this too was dodged.

  At the same time, the vampire launched a Fireball of his own. It was incredibly quick and very powerful.

  I created a magic barrier in the nick of time and shouted.

  “It’s no ordinary High Lord! Be careful!”


  “We know!”


  Eric and Goran continued to attack the vampire with their swords.

  Shockingly, the vampire seemed to be on even footing while fighting them both.

  Just as I was about to support them with magic, other vampires started to crawl out from all around us.

  There had been other hidden entrances to the underground. And now there were nearly a hundred vampires.

  “We killed so many, and yet there were this much left!”


  “At least there are no machines or evil dragons!”


  “Goran, Eric. You deal with him. Serulis, Shia, Grulf. We’ll take down the weak ones.”


  “Understood!”


  “Yes!”


  “Groof!”


  I unsheathed the Devil King Sword and cut into the closest vampire.

  Shia and Serulis also started fighting.

  There were no lesser vampires. They were a mixture of archs and lords.

  My role was to allow Eric and Goran to focus on the fight with the mysterious vampire.

  At the same time, I had to support Serulis and the others.

  “Grulf, stay close to me.”


  “Groof!”


  I watched over the entire scene and unleashed my magic and used my sword where I could.

  Serulis and Shia were doing excellent work. They fought bravely against the lords.

  Eric and Goran also seemed to be gaining an advantage.

  Perhaps they had heard the noise because evil dragons were starting to fly towards us, but Dorgo kept them at bay.

  I couldn’t hold back. I used spell after spell to kill the vampires.

  And then I saw a lord appear right behind Goran as he fought.

  “There!”


  Just as the lord appeared, Serulis’s sword flashed.

  The lord had moved as mist, but now its head flew in the air. Serulis had predicted its movement, it seemed.

  Before the head hit the ground, Serulis swung her sword again and split it into two.

  “Thank you!”


  “Don’t mention it!”


  Goran sounded very happy. It was nice seeing Serulis and Shia grow.

  Then, when we had fought long and hard to kill ninety percent of them……

  ‘Locke! They’ve attacked! We need your help!!’


  Kathe’s voice sounded from the bracelet. She did not sound calm.

  “I’ll go right now. Eric!”


  “Aye, leave the rest to us!”


  “We’ll follow you as soon as we are finished here.”


  Eric moved away from the mysterious vampire. The vampire tried to pursue him, but Goran blocked him.

  Then a lord appeared and attacked Goran, but Serulis cut him down.

  In the meantime, I touched Eric’s shield and sent magic into it in order to activate the teleport.

  And then I jumped into it. Grulf followed me.

  I arrived in the water dragon settlement. We burst out of the shed where the magic circle had been placed.

  From above the settlement, an evil dragon looked at us as it flew in the sky.
