Earthling in Uncharted Dimensions

Chapter 33: 'Fame'us

About time, Lee summoned the status. The appearance of hourly Essence harvest delighted Lee. Except for two golems, all others were wiped out. Taking out golems will help the soldier to concentrate more on the werebeasts and skeleton soldiers.

Lee fired two arrows and the two golems were destroyed. He hesitated to fire the arrows at werebeasts, so he keenly observed.

At the back of the horde were 3 Liches. They were continuously summoning skeleton soldiers. Lee figured that taking them out will only do good and pulled the bowstring.

*zingg*

An arrow flashed towards and flew at a lich. It sensed the incoming danger and moved away, but got caught up in the explosion. It readied itself for the next attack, but the arrow has already arrived.

*BOOM*

When compared with previous muffled explosions, this one was clearly audible. The lich and a bunch of its soldiers scattered around by the explosion. A lich died.

"One down, two to go!"

[Essence left for 11 more arrows.]

D promptly reminded him that the Essence is pretty low. Lee's words raised the archer's morale. They waited for the horde to enter their range.

Lee fired two more arrows and they flew at Liches with a 'ziss'. Seeing them scattering like a deer caught up in a landmine, Lee lowered his bow and sighed.

He wanted to size the horde down more, but the lack of Essence prevented him. It was at this moment, a notification popped up.

'I forgot to drip my blood!'

Lee immediately bit his finger and dropped his blood on it. A notification popped up and told him that he has been recognised as its master.

'How far is the horde?!'

[They seem to have slowed down a bit by your attacks. The dead golems have impacted their spirit. A little more than one and half kilometres.]

'How long can I endure lightning running through my body?!'

[Much better than before. Numbness will not be felt, but a slight pain will occur.]

'More than enough.'

Those standing near Lee saw him smiling for no reason. They stared at him in confusion. Lee slowly took his blade from the Inventory. He took 6 steps backward and ran forward. The guards were wonderstruck by seeing his suicide attempt. They tried to stop him, but in vain.

Lee took an initial run and jumped up. His strength gave him a large boost, enough to pull off a heroic one. The guards saw his figure floating forward with abnormal speed. They were afraid that he'd end up falling on the soldier on the ground.

Lee descended to Earth with the help of gravity. He landed with a loud thud, and about 10 meters in front of the first line of defense. Tanks had their shields grounded deep to defend against the werebeasts.

Where Lee landed was a crater. Fenfang and Freya standing among the crowd recognised this crater. It was a little smaller than what they saw at the village. Lee stood up and walked forward. His beautiful blade was ready to chop some monster meat!

The horde came in a range of archers and they fired their arrows. Lee told the line of defense to stand still and not move or intervene as they might get hurt. The warriors, knights and the army stood behind the tank's shields. Ian recognised Lee from his voice.

Arrows landed on the ground and Lee dashed forward. As he increased his pace, lightning strikes from the EsGen storage were released and covered all over his body. He jumped into the midst of the horde. Those beasts that hoped to munch on his flesh were numbed and killed by the lightning and his blade.

(A.N. If you want to imagine this scene, think of the Thor at the end of Thor: Ragnarok and place him in the arena of Sakkar with those fragile Skelton soldiers!)

Lightning flashed from his body and an intense pain covered him. As the monsters noticed that they can't even touch him, they went round about him and tried to attack the line of defense. Lee noticed their attempt and took out a whole lot of lightning and sprayed around him. It spread throughout the field and numbed the beasts and they fell spasming. The warriors saw this opportunity and stabbed and killed those that fall numb.

More than half an hour passed, the unwavering spirit of monsters began to dwindle. They began to hesitate to attack as their comrades were almost wiped out. The skeleton soldiers were the first to be decimated as they acted as a channel to spread Lee's lightning more effectively. Without liches to backup, those fragile beings were immediately eliminated.

Lee wasn't completely domineering. There were times when beasts pounced on him. But their fangs could not make wounds on his body. Some broke their claws after hitting his super high defense. Lee was completely impenetrable. Guards up the wall saw him head-chopping beasts from time to time.

The horde was decreased to 30% of the original size. Fatigue and pain had taken over Lee as his speed was reduced. He slowly retreated to the line of defense while killing the monsters. He finally came into line of defense and the soldiers thanked him and told him that they'll take it from here. The knights, wizards and soldiers dashed to cut down the remaining beasts.

Lee slowly walked towards the wall as he leaned over Fenfang's shoulder. He was panting heavily as she supported him. Fenfang was continuously scolding him in low voice. It was barely audible to a third person, and Lee was too tired to give an audience to it.

=====

4 P.M.

450 Essence harvested.

=====

As they neared the gate, Ian came towards Lee with four people carrying a stretcher. Lee laid on the stretcher and closed his eyes in fatigue. Ian saw this and said inside-

'I hope you can be a beacon of justice in the future.'

Fenfang followed the stretcher to the infirmary. Wenk was waiting for a patient, and he was delighted to see Lee again, in a stretcher.

"Here we go again! Lee, I am so glad to meet you. I was getting bored sitting idle."

He glanced at Lee who had fallen asleep and at Fenfang. She narrated the incidents on the battlefield. She didn't say anything about the unknown archer as she didn't know that it was Lee. Wenk was amazed to see this power-packed thunderstorm in the form of a teenager sleeping peacefully.

"Miss, you can stay here if you like. Afterall, you are a friend of Freya."

Fenfang didn't probe further into his sentence, but she felt something amiss between Wenk and Freya. She sat on the chair near the table as Wenk applied certain ointment on his limbs, head and chest and covered him with a blanket.

"He will sleep for a few hours due to fatigue. There are no wounds or whatsoever on his body, which is weird. The continuous battling might give him a faint muscular pain.

I'll head out to the frontline. Since the soldiers have initiated attack, injuries and casualty is sure to happen. An extra hand will only help!"

Saying this, Wenk took a staff from the storage room. It was beautifully sculpted and had a white crystal fixed on top of it. Fenfang guessed from the staff that Wenk was really a healer.
