Plundering in the Apocalypse

Chapter 192 Forming A Plan!





The woman wasn't a fool. She understood what her husband wanted to do. This made her cry. She didn't want it to be like that.

"No, let me go. You escape."

Although her voice was hushed, he could feel her aggrieved tone. The man looked at his wife, who was bawling tears. He felt his heartache. Looking at her sternly, he said,

"You are not an awakened. You can't face that monster. Just run with the baby."

At the end of his sentence, his voice softened as he said.

"Make sure to tell him that his father wasn't a coward, okay?"

Those were his final words of farewell. He knew this was suicide. He won't be able to face those monsters and his death was certain.

But if with his death, if he could buy some time for his wife and son to escape. He felt it was worth it.

Making up his mind, he jumped up in front of the demon to distract him.

"Hey, you ugly monster. I'm here. What are you doing there?"

The demon looked at him ferociously. With inhumane speed, the demon rushed at him. The scene was terrifying. But he came prepared to die. Not losing his focus, he actuated his ability.

"Slip."

The demon who was madly rushing at him suddenly lost his footing and crashed to the ground.

The man glanced in the direction of his wife, confirming whether she had escaped or not.

But before he could see her, he heard a roar. In front of him, another demon appeared, rushing in his direction, ready to crush him under his humongous body.

"Slip." He once again activated his ability. But unfortunately, the expected scene didn't happen. The demon didn't fall. Instead, it made a huge leap toward him.

'Ah, so this is my end.' There was no escape for him. Three more demons appeared in that location.

Seeing the huge shadow of the demon falling at him, he closed his eyes, accepting his death. At that moment, a lot of thoughts crossed his mind. But he could only grieve and accept his fate.

He heard the sound of meat slicing and sizzling, but the expected pain didn't come. Instead, he felt cold liquid fall on his body.

When he opened his eyes in confusion, he saw a scene which he will never forget for the rest of his life. The demon who was about to pounce on him was sliced in half. Not only that, his body was roasted black as if electrocuted.

Then he heard the voice of his savior, whom he was going to admire his entire life.

"Phew, that was close."

"Are you alright?"

He saw a handsome man holding a magic sword emitting purple lighting descending from the sky as if a God descending to this world.

His Majesty couldn't help but make the man worship.

When he turned to check his wife's situation. He saw her kneeling on the ground while holding the baby and crying.

When he was about to die, he wondered how his wife and child will survive in the chaotic world after his death. This thought made him filled with sadness and guilt.

But his attention was brought to his savior as he said,

"Is that your wife? Go to them. I'll take care of things here."

Before he could understand what happened, he saw his savior flashing at a fast speed and waving his majestic sword, sending slashes made of lightning finishing the demons and killing those terrifying creatures.

"Wh-What's going on?"

Witnessing such a scene, he was dumbfounded.

Is this a power humans can have?

Who is this person?

While he was still in his thoughts, his wife came near him, holding the child, hugged him, and wept.

"Don't do anything like that again. I can't bear the thought of losing you."

"Waaaaaeeeeehhh."

This time she couldn't suppress the cries of the child, listening to which made him even more heartbroken.

***

What was going on with that family Shin didn't care, as he focused on solving the demons.

"Take this, Lightning Slash."

As it was a combination move, Shin didn't think much about it and came up with this name.

By the times he solved two demons, three more demons appeared in that place.

They didn't rush as Shin madly instead they send demonic energy attacks at him.

Shin dodged a few of the attacks, and for the ones that were difficult to be avoided. He created a shield made of water magic and easily blocked them.

Then a thought came to his mind. 'Can a demon be affected by poison?'

Looking at the demons who were preparing for the next waves of attacks. Shin immediately activated his ability.

"Toxic Ninja."

Since obtaining this ability, Shin has yet to use this in a fight. He waved his hand and a small needle appeared, floating beside him.

With another wave, the needle was sent flying directly, hitting the demon.

It didn't seem to have any effect on the demon, but Shin knew that wasn't the case. He has activated his Magic eyes to confirm that the demon was poisoned.

'Now I need to know how long it takes for the demon to die.'

Shin didn't kill the demon and directly tied him with Arcane Web.

'Now that he is poisoned, he can't even find the strength to break free.'

Shin also combined his water magic with the poison and shot a drop of poison at another demon like a poison bullet.

"Arcane Web." Tying another demon, Shin waited for the poison to finish them.

The demons screamed in pain as the poison affected their bodies. Blue lines appeared on their bodies and finally, sometime later, they died.

Suddenly, a plan formed inside Shin's mind. Thinking it was very feasible, he couldn't help but feel more and more excited.

'If it works. Not only will I gain a lot of fragments, but also we can kill all the demons inside the city.'
