Last Shelter Online

81 Get Back!

The remaining time was still too long for Hiro.

He knew that in a minute, the hunters could finish off many survivors at once and quickly caught up with their trailing points until time ran out.

However, Hiro would not let that happen.

He had to win this game no matter what.

And to achieve that, he needed a team. A strong, reliable team.

Still, there was no more time. Hiro had to return to where he was before, heading south to where the survivors had been gathered. If he left them for too long and there was a hunter who found out where they were hiding, the plan could fail right away.

 …

"You Ugly B*tch! Leave me alone! I will burn you alive!"

Only halfway to the south, Hiro heard the voice of someone he knew.

SPLAT!

"Ugh!"

Blood scattered on the ground towards a narrow space hidden in the maze.

Noah was seen pressing his bleeding stomach. His body was covered in cold sweat and next to him flew his legendary weapon with a faint glow, the Mystic Tome.

In front of Noah was a girl with a body proportioned like a skilled, agile fighter.

Both hands carried a pair of chakram-shaped weapons that were wide and sharp at the edges.

[Level 23. Natalie. Rogue. Night Slayer]

She was indeed a CBT player. Hiro could tell from the first time he saw the girl's appearance, especially the weapon she was carrying.

The girl looked back to see Hiro, who was gripping the hilt of his sword tightly.

However, before Hiro had time to do anything, the girl suddenly shot swiftly into the shadow of darkness created by the wall of vines.

Woosh!

[Void Phantom]

[Turn into a shadow, receiving a stealth effect that lasts for 5s, during which time increases the dodge rate by 30% and movement speed by 50%. (CD 10s)]

CLANK!

Hiro could feel a powerful gust of wind suddenly hit his cheeks as he raised his sword to deflect a chakram that was aimed at his chest.

Either because he was very sensitive to the various types of movements that were nearby or because he was very lucky, Hiro managed to stop the attacks that appeared from the darkness until the attacker showed herself again due to the limit of her skill.

Snap!

The girl jumped back like a gymnast with her highly elastic body.

"Defeat that girl before she disappears again!" shouted Noah, who now had time to use one of the basic healing spells possessed by a mage.

His right hand, which had been suppressing the bleeding in his stomach, was emitting a bright white light and the light seemed to expand to cover the wound on Noah's stomach.

Whoosh!

Hiro moved like blazes while swinging a slash forward after holding it until his combo skill was activated. Even so, attacking someone with a slender and agile body wasn't easy for a barbarian wielding a heavy greatsword like Hiro.

CLANK!

Natalie dodged by turning sideways, but she didn't just dodge. She purposely slammed one of the black chakrams she was carrying at Hiro's sword, but it didn't manage to make Hiro budge from his place because of the difference in STR points they had.

Unable to win with a direct physical attack, Natalie threw her bright white weapon at Hiro so that Hiro had no other choice but to bend down.

Bang!

Although he managed to dodge the chakram that was now stuck in the maze's walls, Hiro wasn't fast enough to dodge Natalie's boots that flew right in his face while bending down.

"Dammit!"

Hiro was being thrown backward. Blood dripped from his nose and he quickly wiped it with the back of his hand.

Natalie wore an exquisite gold venetian mask, hiding her nose and eyes. While her thin lips formed a satisfied smile after successfully landing her first attack on Hiro.

Hiro tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword. His eyebrows knit together and looked at the opponent in front of him with a serious look.

He then dashed forward while slashing Natalie at full tilt, but before his slash touched the girl's body, Natalie had disappeared again from his sight.

'Come on, Hiro!'

He tried to recollect his memories of how to fight enemies who repeatedly disappeared when they attacked or when he wanted to give them a huge blow. After all, he managed to defeat one of the boss monsters that had the same power as her. Lucifer The Fallen Angel.

Hiro took a deep, long breath to increase his concentration, and a notification appeared in front of him.

[Demon's eyes ready]

[Activating Demon's eyes skill]

Hiro opened his eyes and suddenly the dim light that had previously made his eyes accustomed to his surroundings was changed as if the contrast of the light caught by his eyes was increasing and what was previously only a shadow of darkness, had turned into millions of dark-coloured dots that coalesce to become one in a corner.

His eyes were now emitting a bright red light.

He looked around and he found thousands black dots gathered in one place and formed a shape like a human near the wall to his left.

The dots seemed to move in an orderly fashion, but their movements were extremely fast.

Suddenly, when those dots dashed towards him, in the last second before the impact occurred, Hiro pulled half his body back while swinging his sword horizontally with all his might towards those dots.

SPLAT!

Blood spurted out profusely, raining down on Hiro's bare feet. But it wasn't his.

Natalie vomited lots of blood from her mouth. Her eyes quivered as she looked up. Her hand gripped Hiro's wrist tightly, but as time went on, her grip loosened.

Hiro's greatsword was still stuck in the girl's waist.

[1 hunter can't no longer hunt]

[1 hunter has been eliminated]

Hiro gulped down his own saliva as he watched how Natalie's body shattered into crystal shards before disappearing from his sight.

"I really have nothing to say at this moment." murmured Noah, who couldn't stop being astonished to see a fairly sadistic murder in front of him.

"Can you fight?" Hiro asked, ignoring his comment.

"Of course, I already have this in my hands." Noah raised his Mystic Tome.

[You have sent a party invitation to Noah]

[Noah has joined the party]

"Follow me."

…

…

[Remaining time: 00h 35m 10s]

[1st. Survivor (Total Game Points 1,155,215)]

[2nd. Hunter (Total Game Points 1,140,480)]

[Remaining survivors population 114,048 (60%)]

Rustle!

The hunters, who were already tired of searching, realized that the survivors were getting harder to find.

"They broke the eliminator rockets."

"Where are they now?"

"I think it's getting harder and harder to find them."

"Are they hiding somewhere?"

A figure came to join them. He was running fast as if he brought a high-price piece of information.

"Haaa… All of you quickly come with me."

"What?! What for?"

"Those elite players know where the survivors are hiding."
