Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Destroy the assassins

Bow and arrow, the weapon that Kain initially brought with him only because he was familiar with archery, but against the monsters in the Dungeon, the threat of bow and arrow was almost non-existent.

However, the appearance of the assassins was like giving the archers a stage to perform.

Whoosh!

With a whistling sound, the arrow from the bowstring shot straight into the head of an assassin with pinpoint accuracy. For a hunter who was used to shooting in difficult conditions, with lots of foliage or tree trunks to shield him and uneven terrain, his current situation was really too easy to adapt to.

The arrows on his back were running low, so Kain wanted to make the most of them.

Some lucky ones managed to block the first arrow shot at them, but were still hit by the second arrow.

Too quickly, with just one release of magic skill and an incomplete quiver of arrows, more than half of the assassins fell. Some were unlucky enough to die as soon as [Thunder Summon] appeared, some were unlucky enough to be pushed into the swamp and killed by monsters, and some were killed by his arrows.

Meanwhile, they couldn't even get close to Kain.

Now, when Kain was the one actively ambushing instead of being the one passively receiving the ambush, the effect was truly different.

Seeing that the remaining people were planning to run away, Kain did not intend to foolishly pursue them. He only waved his hand and thunder descended from the sky, instantly killing all the assassins at the farthest place.

For monsters, [Thunder Summon] is more of a magic skill that can cause paralysis over a wide area. The same goes for Magus, because the Magus' energy has been awakened, making them look no different from normal people, but they still possess a certain resistance to magic.

But for a normal person's body, whether it's [Thunder Summon] or [Thunder Bullet], they're both deadly things.

So, the only outcome for these assassins who cannot avoid the range of lightning strikes is certain death.

However, Kain's troubles were not over yet.

Because of the huge commotion created during the battle, along with the stimulation of the taste of flesh, the zombies actually began to leave the swamp, climbing up the rough road. Of course, Kain, the sole survivor, became the target of these monsters.

A Zombie that had not yet climbed up was stabbed through the head by Kain's dagger. He secretly felt a bit, except for the more terrifying shape, it was no different from a normal Zombie.

For Kain right now, dealing with these Zombies was very simple, it was just that there were too many of them, this place was too cramped, he is not at his best right now, and Kain's main goal was not hunting monsters. So as soon as he confirmed the strength of these Zombies, Kain immediately turned around and ran away.

At the same time, on Myra and Mera's path, the two girls vaguely heard unusual movements from the other side.

"Did you hear that Myra?"

"Yes, I'm not deaf."

The two sisters argued with each other. Suddenly, Myra noticed movement among the assassins behind them.

Before this, both sides had always maintained a similar speed to each other, the assassins had actually turned into a tail following both of them. But now, Myra couldn't see that anymore. Even though they didn't show or allow any emotions to be seen, from their movements, Myra could see that they were hesitating.

No, the things behind Myra weren't real people, they were just puppets controlled by a mysterious Magus. From that, it was obvious that the one hesitating was the Magus himself, but why?

Myra thought silently, her mind couldn't help but recall the strange movement just now. Her intuition told her that these two events were related.

Suddenly, the assassins' movements suddenly stiffened like statues, and with a sudden movement, they moved again and rushed towards the two girls with a speed completely different from before.

"Mera!"

Myra's pupils constricted for a moment. Fortunately, she still reacted in time and shook Mera beside her. Mera also regained her senses, she raised her hand, and the shape of the ground changed.

Previously, Kain had instructed the two of them in a fairly effective tactic if they had to deal with the assassins here.

It was simple, Mera would create a wall of earth and rock across the path. Then, the assassins who wanted to get past this wall would have to climb up, and once they reached the top, Myra could use [Fire Magic] to shoot them down one by one. This tactic not only puts both of them in a safe position, but can also save them a lot of energy while they are still in a state where they have not fully recovered.

[Earth Wall].

[Fire Bullet].

The two sisters coordinated very well, and in just a moment, they took down several assassins who had climbed to the top of the wall. However, things would not always be so peaceful, because in two swamps next to the earthen wall, bodies fell into the swamp.

The zombies hiding in the swamp were alarmed, they emerged and used their hands to grab onto the fallen bodies. At this moment, the other assassins stepped over these corpses, successfully going around the wall that was blocking their way.

It could be said that the assassins changed their strategy very quickly, they knew that if they continued like this, they would be burned by Myra. Therefore, they resorted to sacrificing some people so that the others could go around the wall.

Surprisingly, Myra and Mera's faces did not show any surprise, as if they had expected this scene to appear.

To be more precise, it was not them who predicted it, but Kain, it was Kain who predicted this scene.

"That tactic is fine, but it's not enough to deal with those assassins. Remember, they're nothing more than puppets controlled by Magus, not a real team with separate people."

"So when they replace out that climbing the wall is impossible, they will try to sacrifice some people so that others can get through. The swamp is dangerous, but they can still buy enough time."
