Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

The attack was centered around his wing, meaning the opposite side's mage was skilled and shrewd!

With that one move, he took Ender out of the equation!

It didn't mean whether Ender played a massive role in Jake's strength—one of the enemies was done.

Had Ender been a player, he would have lost an arm or leg.

Losing a limb in the immersive virtual reality was worse than dying. Losing the dominant hand often turned players into a dead weight.

Imagine typing with your right hand for a whole life, then being forced to write an entire essay with your left hand—it was so terrible, and yet, losing a dominant hand in the virtual reality game world was an even worse experience.

Shaw growled, "Someone has the same plan as us!"

SWalker, "We're lucky to have Jake's pets on our side. He'll return in an hour, but I reckon even Sin can't restore an arm or leg."

Sin nodded. "I'm not on this level yet."

Prince mused aloud. "Yet another team playing around the laws absolute to everyone." His hands danced as he sang about his determination to overcome the said laws. "Love it!" He shifted his eyes to Last Coin and asked in a soft, low, and intriguing voice, "Any idea, Golden Coin?"

Last Coin said, "I only felt a wave of unfamiliar mana going through Ender, then all of it latching onto his right wing. I couldn't even tell it'd explode. I just knew it was an attack."

Jake's team knew precisely what Ender had suffered because of his connection with Jake. Ender told him that he could no longer fly and was pretty much useless, even in his dark nest.

Therefore, Jake told him to rest in the form of a tattoo. He thanked him for the help so far and reassured him, as Jake understood it took Ender a lot of pride to confirm that he was out of the game for now.

Prince said, "I couldn't see what it was."

Sin asked, "You were keeping an eye on Ender? Are you stupid?"

"Ah, this little one flies with so much pride that I love to observe him," Prince didn't find any fault.

Sin smacked his helmet and rebuked him, "You're supposed to look out for enemies, you moron!"

She apologized to everyone.

Jake calmed her down. "It's fine. We know that this concept is invisible to the eye. Only Coin can see through it, which makes our new opponents trickier than we thought."

Perhaps they were too naive to think that the next opponents would simply enter the open area to snatch the consumables. The other side was also hiding under the forest's canopy, with their fingers on the triggers.

It was a stalemate, but not for too long.

Before Jake and his team could think of their next move, the other side had already made its move.

BANG!

The ground beneath one of the packages shivered and cracked. What came out from the hole was soil animated into a hand big enough to squeeze Prince and everyone else from his team.

On its palm was the package.

Worse, the hand stretched toward other packages, scooping all of them up in a swift motion!

Last Coin commented while others stood in awe. "It's level thirty earth skill… it's one of the first skills that allows mages to freely control an earth in the shape of a hand. But I heard the range is really low…"

Shaw whispered, "So they have two mages."

SWalker asked, "What makes you think like that?"

Shaw replied, "I think they wouldn't let us so easily get close to that earth hand. That long-distance explosion is so powerful I can't imagine them giving up on it to cast this earth hand. We're not fighting trolls."

SWalker smiled, "I see. I agree with your assessment. That said, we can't let them get any of those consumables."

Prince hollered. "Cerberus!"

As the tattoo on his back warmed up, Cerberus' mana manifested and dropped before Prince as a lovely black puppy whose dark eyes twinkled with white stars.

He was so cute that the crowd and many women and girls in The Spirit Observer joined their knees and went 'Awwwww!' upon seeing him.

Cerberus howled, eliciting another wave of excitement from the crowd.

Prince took the reins of the team.

He shouted, "My partner! Guide us across this grassland and take us to the other forest! Claim everything in your wake with your impregnable defense formation!"

Cerberus howled aloud. Before him, a transparent black door appeared. It was at least three meters tall and wide enough for two people to come in and out simultaneously.

It was so much higher than Cerberus himself that looking at him wielding that power was cute.

He gave a signal that he was ready to go.

Prince nodded. "My dear sister, my dark horse, and Golden Coin—you three stay in the middle. The rest protect them as my partner can only keep our front safe! Whatever comes from the side is on you! Keep your eyes wide and perception around, and smell any attack before they take down our support and main damage! We run in a row!

And you'd better run in style!" He raised his hand and sharply dropped it. "Forward!"

Cerberus woofed.

He ran on his four like a train! He was so fast that Prince needed a buff from his sister to keep up with him! Last Coin was on the same side. He needed more than a buff and used his mana step to keep up with the rest.

Prince thought, 'What Golden Coin described is the explosive magic's weakness—it has to glue to the opponent first! If we stay behind Cerberus' door, the mage has no chance to hurt us! We will suffer losses if he's skilled enough to weave his magic past it. I hope he's good enough to cause some drama! Make it roll, dude!'

He was an actor through and through.

Jake, however, was the same. 'Who will suffer the first damage? It can be me. Push me to the next level, whoever you are, mage!'

BANG!

While the earth hand lowered to toss the consumable packages to the forest, the explosion magic plastered itself onto Cerberus' black door. It exploded, drawing a few cracks on it.

The sharp glint crossed Prince and Cerberus' eyes—the defense formation could endure way more!

"The consumables are gone!" Shaw shouted.

Jake replied, "It's fine! I put a tracking skill on it and stretched my perception zone! I can still track them! Keep running forward!"

"That's what he said!" Prince said.

"Stupid joke that doesn't make any sense!" Shaw shouted back.

That was when El Boss Queen sensed something.

It was a magic.

She could tell that much, as her perception had absorbed more than a few magic skills. When she noticed that Last Coin turned to the right, El knew the explosive magic had found its way to them!

She lurched in and stretched her hand forward to take the brunt of it!

BANG!

The explosion caused El's vision to be swarmed with system messages.

She was also thrown back.

"Keep running!" Jake and Prince shouted. It was merciless, but the entire team couldn't suffer just because of one teammate.

El Boss Queen did a good job, though. These two told her so.

Their instant reaction and the fact that they didn't forget to mention her had stirred feelings El Boss Queen couldn't properly understand.

She knew she wanted to help them more and that being a teammate was fun.

It was too early for her to be thrown out.

With the additional strength drawn from the accessories, El crawled back to the team.

The second wave of explosive magic weaved around the middle of the row.

El once again took it.

Her right gauntlet and vambraces were cracked.

Sin commented as she passed her healing magic to her, "Those explosions are too strong! She's losing health points even while her armor takes the brunt of it!"

It meant that her hand and forearm would have been blown away had it not been for the armor!

The third wave went past her…

El Boss Queen gritted her teeth. She'd be thrown out again, this time.

To her surprise, however, once the explosion ensued, Shaw left the row and caught her in his arms before she could leave their side.

She curtly looked at him.

He shouted, "That about you I can respect!"

El widened her eyes at him.

These two quickly rejoined the team.

The forest's threshold was just before them.

The other opponents had also given up on hurting them.

"They're running away!" Prince shouted. "Lil Queen, good work on saving Golden Coin! You too, my mini rival!"

"Thanks!"

"Go to hell, bastard!"

Jake narrowed his eyes, "It must be their land that they're running away to! If they got another team, they can—"

Before Jake could finish his words, the earth rumbled.

A second later, a significant piece of land was elevated to the skies.

Jake's new opponents were much more clever and decisive than expected. They were ready to steal consumables and upgrade their Territory Sphere to begin the conquest of the skies!

That made everything so much more difficult!

Casual Clowns soon stood in the floating island's shadow, looking up like ants that could only dream of getting up there.
