Chapter 197 - Harlin Heights Hell Mode Part 2
Within the massive horde of monsters in the middle were three figures sitting on the backs of a monster that towered over the others. It closely resembled an elephant but had a large horn protruding out of its forehead and massive razor sharp teeth. Its trunk had little suckers on it to grab hold of its prey, making it so they would never be able to escape.
On top of this monster were three figures. Humanoid in form with grey horns on their head, tanned skin, and green hair. Besides these few traits, they did not look any different than a normal human, although they were very beautiful. One man, two females, they sat on top of the monster cross-legged playing some kind of strange game.. "Shit! I lost again..."
"Brolvan, when will you learn that you can not beat Anames? You have tried five times already. Her ability to see the future is beyond anything you can even handle, plus remember the last time you challenged her? She beat you into a bloody...."
"Shut it, Arkin!" Brolvan frowned. He did not want to argue with these two women. He has never won against them since the day he was born!
"Aww, our handsome boy is being shy. Shall we give him some more service?" Anames put her finger to her mouth and began sucking on it in a seductive manner.
"What service!? Watching you two go at it while I am left to jerk it!?" Brolvan yelled. He couldn\'t stand how these two were always playing around but leaving him out!
"Haha! Lonely right hander!" Arkin smiled as she walked over and sat in Anames\'s lap. She was going to do something to annoy Brolvan when her eyes locked in on a handsome man standing at the forefront of the human army. Tall, handsome man with black hair. On his head was sleeping away was a small black cat. "Stop the horde..."
"What!? Why should we stop the horde!?" Brolvan asked. He glared at Arkin, wondering why she would say such a stupid thing now of all times.
"Arkin, what are you sa…. Oh my…. Stop the horde!" Anames yelled out as she stood up. She grabbed Arkin by the hand and flew off towards the human front line.
On the human side of things, Ryu stood there waiting for the head on clash with the huge monster horde. He was excited to actually fight in such a huge battle for the first time in the game. It was on a whole different scale compared to the other battles he had been in so far. If only he knew in the future, his battles would be on a much larger scale as time went on.
"Hey, something strange is happening! The horde stopped!" One of the guards yelled out.
Ryu raised his head and saw that the horde had indeed stopped. He wondered what exactly was going on. As he squinted his eyes to try to see past the glaring sun overhead, he saw a shadow in the sky that looked like two humanoid figures. "Commander! There seems to be something flying towards us!" Ryu yelled out to the one in charge.
"What! Where!?" The commander came and stood by Ryu\'s side. Ryu pointed to the sky where the flying humanoids were.
"This… Everyone, fall back behind the wall! This is a black level threat!" The commander yelled out. His eyes were full of fear. He looked at Ryu and said: "Pull your people back. We can only try to save as many as we can."
"Hmmm? I do not think they are here to attack." Ryu pointed to how one of the two who were incoming was hanging from the other\'s hand.
"This..." The commander also thought this was strange and was unsure of what to do now.
"Commander, pull your people back. I will meet them. We are not part of your town, and you have a responsibility to take care of those who depend on you." Ryu patted the commander on the shoulder and smiled. Before raising his hand and yelling out: "Serenity, gather up!"
Ryu\'s entire raid team quickly gathered together behind Ryu. The commander was stunned seeing this band of people standing fearlessly in front of a black level threat. He could not help but feel that he too should also stay, but this thought was quickly washed away when he heard Ryu yell back to him. "Commander, your people come first, remember that."
"You\'re right. Your name is Ryu, right? If we survive this, I would like to have a few drinks with you. Young heroes are not seen much these days." The commander left these words before ordering his people to fall back and help evacuate the citizens. They could only try to retreat to the shelter for now.
Ryu stood with his clan members behind them as two beautiful women dropped down from the sky and landed right in front of Ryu. "Hmmm… even more handsome up close. Yes, you will definitely do. Handsome boy, would you like to come play with us, big sisters?"
Before Ryu could even say a word, a flash of lightning passed by him, and the smaller of the two newcomers was already on the ground, face first in the dirt. "You want to do what to my husband!?"
"Hey you fucking foxkin bitch get off me!" Arkin yelled out. She didn\'t even get a chance to react before she was having her head stepped on and face first in the dirt.
"Oh? Now, this is quite interesting… You, humans, are not normal at all. My guess is that you are real cultivators? Now, this might be a little troublesome..." Anames looked at the group, her eyes landing on Ryu and then the man standing next to him in black. Her lip twitched, feeling the aura coming off this man.
"How dare you touch Arkin!" Brolvan yelled out. He dived at Chi, who was holding Arkin down with a sword drawn with all intent to kill her.
Anames brow furrowed as she turned and yelled out: "Brolvan, don\'t move!"
