To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 204: Hopeless Effort



Chapter 204: Hopeless Effort

Everything was so messed up. 

After they discovered the Minions has an ability to multiply themselves by killing the Hunter, everyone starts blaming Lady Hera for that. 

Because Lady Hera might know what was going to happen. But she waits and let about 100 Hunters died to confirm.

Of course Lady Hera defend herself with: "That is a gamble that we lose."

After that, the League Commando got replaced by Miss Jade. 

She gathered every Caster the League has. Unite them in two Division in southeast and southwest of the Mountain Snail. 

The formation was, the Caster got protected by the Defender. While the Caster preparing a big Arts to launch at the Mountain Snail and especially for the Minions. 

However, something unexpected happened. The Minion suddenly were gone. Leaving the Mountain Snail open. 

Even though the attack still being executed. 

Then another unexpected happened. 

On each right and left of the Mountain Snail, ten humanoid monster appeared. 

They're sized about 3x sized of an adult man. Apart from their muscular bodies, the other thing that stood out was their faces, which only contained a large red crystal.

It looked like they issued from the Mountain Snail. 

On the first sight, they looked like monsters that would protect Mountain Snails from the dangers of a major attack by the Caster.

The Mind of the Mountain Snail aware of that danger. 

With that, the plan of [Destroying the Catastrophe Beast with full power of the Caster] being executed. 

However, before the Major Arts being cast, the Humanoid Monster's red crystal face shines bright, then launched a really strong red laser. Their target is the Hunter Division. 

The Two Division were expected that kind of attack and already installed a barrier. But that was no use. Because the Humanoid Monster attack was so strong. 

"It was like two Black Sky Spine shot in full power."

As a result of that attack, the two Division got destroyed. Many died in the incident. Leaving a huge pain and failure to the Hunter side. 

Miss Hera had said to think twice about executing the plan. But she was in a state of not wanting to be heard by anyone.

It only took two more days for Mountain Snail to reach Mutiara City.

After Mutiara City got destroyed, then there was no other wall could stop the Catastrophe Beast. 

"I will go."

Feeling guilty for her carelessness, Jade the Green decided to face the Catastrophe Beast herself. Of course her family will go with them too. 

Ophelia the Black and Skadi the Silver also stand up to fight together. 

Sylvia the Blue wanted to join her. But at her state now, without her Blue Sky Sword, she only will burden herself. So she decided to be the last shield of Mutiara City. 

The Fifth Day of Calamity Event / 

Three Diamond with their party move toward north. To face the Catastrophe Beast. 

Three Diamond Hunter against the Army of Demon King. 

They may be stronger from the first deployed Division or the second. 

However, the League did not consider the Emperors to be their ally anymore. 

Putting the Greedy Young Master aside, even Alexander the Black Dragon, or Huxian the Fox Goddess, did not appear to give an assist. 

They seemed to did not want to appear because the Catastrophe Beast did not bother their territory. 

Judging as such, the battle between the strongest power of the Abyssal Hunter League versus the Army of the Demon King broke out.

I couldn't stop worrying about the three of them. It's not like I don't believe in their strength. 

The three of them are people who are precious to me. So I do not want to think that they turn to become parts of the Demon King Army. 

I hope that Mr. Alexander and Huxian wanted to lend their strength. 

But at this time, they did not even to respond on Miss Hera's call. 

Maybe because they know they can't win over Echidna. So they either did not want to to intervene in the fight.

Can't relax, I keep praying over them. I also hope that my beloved one would appear at such time. 

He is so strong. I believe he could win the fight. But  

"Where are you now, Ars?"

Abyssal Terra / Floor 2

Middle Region /

Misty Rainforest / 

"GREEN BOY!"

They were in the forest. A perfect place for Jade to unleash the full potential of Green Sky Shield. 

She created a giant wood wall. Its height is the same as Mountain Snail. 

Jade made the wall really thick in case they can't stop the Mountain Snail with their attack. 

Given that the mountain monsters could destroy the belly of the mountain easily.

Skadi stand in front of all the Vanguard. They were riding Green Boy's branched that being controlled by Jade. 

"I am very grateful that that greedy man did not confiscate your weapons."

"We are following him. So I asked him to let us hold our weapons to join a fight with him."

"Really generous for a greedy person."

Arlene with Jade above Green Boy. 

Jade protected Arlene herself because Black Sky Spine is the strongest attack they have. 

At the time, the Minion finally being issued once more. 

Because now they know the fact about the Minion, they became even more aware of the monsters.

Given that they could become one of them if they got teared apart. 

It didn't stop there, the Red Humanoid monster was also issued.

Jade already expected that. 

"Priest, strengthen this wall!"

So she brought not only Priest in her family, also Priests who want to sacrifice their lives for Floor 2. 

"Caster, focused on helping the Vanguard first! Don't let those monsters take our swords to become our enemy!"

The plan is to obliterate all the Minion first. Because they learned the fact that the Minion numbers must have limit if they don't multiply. 

"Arlene, could you focus on the Red Humanoid?"

"I can kill all of them if I want."

"Do that, please."

All of them now, that their effort might will be pointless. Because their enemy, Echidna, was the Chosen. 

Only another Chosen could fight against her. 

That might just their hopeless effort. 

"But, we did it until the true hero comes back."
