BXBX NOVEL Chapter 130 - Two
The young men\'s first attack was not very successful. Their blows reached the "Bloody Berserker", but it received no wounds. Its armor was slightly deformed and that was it. On the other hand, Evan, Chloe, Lars, and Enni were similarly uninjured. The monster threw them aside, but they each managed to defend themselves then.
<Enni has been able to bend its armor and I`ve cut through part of it, hmm, we need to team up and hit the same point together.> Thought Evan getting up from the ground.
Whoosh.
He quickly ran towards Enni and said: "Chloe, stall him, I need ten seconds."
Without turning around at either the girl or the monster, Evan continued running towards Enni. Chloe, didn\'t answer anything, but as the "Bloody Berserker" headed towards Evan, she began to act.
If Evan got out of the trial, they definitely couldn\'t beat the "Bloody Berserker\' without him. She had to protect Evan and hold the monster for as long as necessary.
The "Bloody Berserker" swung its sword and quickly attacked Evan.
Clang.
The next moment, Chloe\'s stone sword stopped the monster\'s weapon. Like the last time, it was very hard for her to contain such a strong opponent, but she was no weakling either.
<Fine>. Evan thought to himself and with the next tug reached Enni.
"We need to hit one place, where I attacked last time. I`ll hit first, freezing his armor, then you`ll smash its defense to smithereens."
Evan said hurriedly, and without waiting for Enni to answer, he sprinted toward the "Bloody Berserker" and Chloe. He didn\'t have time to explain in detail what they would have to do and how. Chloe would only help win them a few more seconds.
Whoosh.
Enni nodded silently and ran after Evan. She didn\'t need a long explanation, it was clear as it was.
<Two consecutive strikes to one place, nothing complicated>. Enni thought, and the fire on her hands intensified and burned even brighter.
Whoosh.
When Evan got close enough to the "Bloody Berserker", he swung the scythe and hit the same spot as last time with all his might. Thanks to Chloe holding the monster back, Evan was able to strike with such precision.
The "Bloody Berserker" instantly reacted to Evan\'s attack. It realized that Chloe was only a distraction. It pushed Chloe aside and tried to attack Evan, but instead of the young man, it saw a girl with fists burning with purple flames.
Bam.
Enni hit the icy part of the armor with all her might. Evan almost managed to cut through the armor with his second attack, he had attacked first for a reason. Thanks to the "Ice Veil", he was able to freeze some of the armor and make it more fragile. If that was the case, the chances of Enni being able to break it were greatly increased.
Crack.
As Enni\'s fist reached the black armor, there was a loud cracking sound. As Evan had expected, the monster\'s armor could not withstand so many powerful attacks in the same place. Moreover, fire and ice were the perfect combination.
Whoosh.
Parts of the armor flew off to the sides, and the "Bloody Berserker" realized what was happening and quickly bounced aside. Enni was unable to wound the monster, but she was pleased with her result.
Evan grinned as he looked at the shattered part of the armor. The breach wasn\'t very wide, a little more than a fist in diameter, but this was already incredible.
They were the first to step forward in this battle, they were unharmed except for minor bruises, and the monster had partially lost its sturdy armor. Now it would have either to purposefully defend the pierced portion of its armor, or would suffer serious wounds.
<Hmm, it probably has pretty high regeneration, but now that we have the possibility to wound it, it will be a battle of attrition and the monster is clearly not in the advantageous situation. There\'s four of us, and it`s alone. We can obviously last a lot longer, the main thing is not to let it drink the blood>.
"Huh, well done, didn\'t expect it to be that easy. It wasn\'t easy on my hands, though. What do we do next?" Said Chloe kneading the wrists of her hands.
"Nothing out of the ordinary. We keep attacking in the same place, sooner or lat it\'ll be without strength. If we can wound it, it\'ll start bleeding. When it\'s exhausted, we decide which one of us will kill it. We must be extremely careful, our opponent can become stronger if it drinks our blood".
Evan said calmly looking at the "Bloody Berserker". The monster stared intently at the young men. He was looking for an opportunity to wound them, feeling that otherwise they would kill it. It would be slowly weaken until it could not stand on the feet.
"Chloe, what other spells do you have?" Evan asked.
He hadn\'t seen the girl use any other spells besides the two he\'d already seen.
The girl shrugged her shoulders and simply answered, "Only one of the" Summoning Magic", but I haven\'t had much practice using it. It certainly can\'t hold that monster, I don\'t think it\'s worth wasting mana on it."
Evan nodded.
"Looks like our little break is over." Lars said slowly, pointing at the "Bloody Berserker".
The monster gripped its sword tightly with both hands and held it out in front of it. It was walking slowly towards the young men looking for a good opportunity to attack.
Whoosh.
Chloe ran forward, she was going to repeat their previous success. If she could hold the monster long enough, Evan and Enni would inflict serious wounds on the monster. Moreover, Lars would also be able to attack if he had enough time to do so.
Just like last time, the \'Bloody Berserker" swung its sword at Chloe. The girl smiled and was about to block the blow, but suddenly, it happened something that she could never have expected.
The monster\'s blow was a feint. Seeing that Chloe had fallen for its trick, the "Bloody Berserker" grabbed the girl\'s sword with its right hand. Its grip was so strong that the thick layer of stone began to crack.
The girl was surprised by the monster\'s actions and even a little frightened, but she reacted quickly to the situation. "Bloody Berserker" attacked the girl, but Chloe had already bounced back leaving her weapon in the monster\'s strong grip.
Sure, it was a big lost to her, but she would be able to fight without her sword.
Whoosh.
Her palms were covered in a thick layer of stone. Losing her sword had weakened Chloe considerably, but that didn\'t mean her blows were any less deadly. If the opportunity presented itself, she could even kill the "Bloody Berserker" with her fists.
"Damn, what the fuck is this shithead so smart?" Evan said grudgingly as he watched the "Bloody Berserker" arm itself with Chloe\'s sword.
"It`s managed to become even more of a problem than it was, even without drinking the blood. I hope it wields two swords worse than one, otherwise we`ll lose."
Lars said seriously, looking at the "Bloody Berserker" walking slowly toward them.
