Chapter 53: 1st Floor Abyssal Hunter vs Catastrophe

Jeff and Hwang are on the border between Giant Leaf Woods and Eastern Land.

The two of them are indeed Legend Hunters who are no longer active. But that doesn't mean they will just stand still seeing the place they live in being threatened because of the appearance of a new event boss.

Jeff looked deep into the forest. "They are still trying to slow down that giant monster?"

"[To fight and die is Abyssal Hunter's decision]. Have you forgotten what your Saint said?"

"Of course not, idiot. Saint Staff is like Jesus in this Abyssal Terra."

Saint Staff is the most influential figure in history recorded in Abyssal Terra.

Accompanied by the Sword Saint, they freed Abyssal Terra's 1st Floor from the darkness.

"By the way, Jeff, do you remember a man named Nathan?"

"You mean Sword Saint's first follower? So what?"

"You must remember that man tried crazy things with his research on Abyssal Arts and Sword Arts, right?"

"Ahh, the research that had earned him the name Sword Caster, but in the end, he got killed by Abyssal Radiation?"

"Yeah, he died because the Saint Staff hadn't perfected Abyssal Breathing at that time."

"Then why did you suddenly mention about a dead person?"

"I taught that Sword Caster-ing technique to Ars."

Jeff glared at Hwang's statement. "How did it go? Did he also die from learning that insane technique?"

"No, but actually yes, he even exceeded my expectations."

"He didn't die? Damn it."

"By possessing the Medium-core Copy of Sword of Testament, he refined the technique."

Jeff stared at that statement. "Medium-core Copy of Sword of Testament, you say?"

"Yup, which is half the strength of original Sword of Testament."

"You fking kidding me!?"

"No, he even adapted the sword to his original Arts."

Jeff held his head, feeling dizzy. "The strongest number 1 sword, even if it's just a Medium-core copy, that bastard granted his permission so that kid can have it."

Hwang just laughed wryly at Jeff's complaint.

"That cold man never even trusted his followers," namely Hwang and his companion followers, "But, if he gives trust to that young man, we have no choice but to trust the legacy that man gave."

Jordan and his group are still having a hard time facing Queen Bull Hornet.

"Archer, prioritize the Bull Hornet waves crossing the perimeter!"

They got overwhelmed because all Giant Leaf Woods' monsters came out of their area.

The group of Archers on the rocks of Silver Steel Mountain shot down the waves of Bull Hornets flying from above over the front barricade.

Since they were flying monster type, and they were targeting refugees, only the Archers could stop them.

[Status debuff: Bad Omen]

Jordan just got his [Bad Omen]. "Alright! Come at me, bitch!"

Queen Bull Hornet's attention focused on Jordan, who just got [Bad Omen].

From behind, the Archers were still trying to shoot down one Bull Hornet after another. But there was one that escaped their sight and flew free to the refugees.

The flying speed of one Bull Hornet can overtake the wagon of the refugees.

The wagon at the rear will fall victim to that Bull Hornet. While the people inside paid no attention to their surroundings, because they focused on praying to the Abyssal God.

Everyone prayed, while Jordan Jr. looking back calmly. He then realized that there is a Bull Hornet that is pointing at the wagon he's riding.

In that state of danger, he was still calm because he always remembered his father's words. "Father will always protect you and everyone."

Therefore, that Lil Guy was not afraid.

But unfortunately, his father, at that time, is far behind. There are indeed two guards escorting the crowd of refugees, but they are on the side and did not see the Bull Hornet flying from above.

The Bull Hornet will hit Jordan Jr. wagon's. When Jordan Jr. thought something like that would happen, a sword pierced the Bull Hornet somehow, and saved them from danger approach.

Jordan Jr. sensed someone who had just moved from behind. Sure enough, a stump man had just done something with his right - only hand, which somehow gave off a bluish glow.

The one-armed man then put his finger in front of his face, "Shh," hinting at Jordan Jr. to be quiet.

Jordan Jr. did the same as that one-armed man - "Shh." - he will shut up and keep a secret on what that man just did.

"[Beast Claw: Double-twin Slash]!"

Randi once again parried Evolved Father Tree's attacks. The next moment, he dropped his two swords, then knelt down, the pain in his hands getting worse.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

The pain was really intense. Randi had to scream loudly to ease the pain.

From the front, Lucas gallantly launched an attack.

[Beast Claw; Piercing to the Edge]!"

Lucas pierced Evolved Father Tree's right leg, causing the giant tree monster to its knees.

Evolved Father Tree looked down, found a small creature that had just attacked him running away. The giant tree monster immediately raised its right hand, then made a sweeping motion from left to right.

Evolved Father Tree's right hand came closer to Lucas.

"Oh fck, oh shit!"

Lucas turned around. If he kept running that way, he wouldn't be able to survive. Therefore, the only way is to minimize the damage he would get.

"Doing so is by blocking the backflow before I get carried away. [Beast Claw; Slash of Giant Beast]! "

Lucas cut open the Evolved Father Tree's attack wave, but he could only open up one small space for him to take cover.

After a few seconds, the small space disappeared and swept over Lucas.

"Fuuuuuuuuuuck!"

The Gold Hunter got slammed farther back. There is a high chance that he would hit a Giant Leaf Tree.

"Gotcha!"

Shawn saves Lucas at the last second.

"Shit! I don't want to taste that anymore!"

Only 2km left Evolved Father Tree will come out of Giant Leaf Woods.

When the giant tree monster reached the outside, he would have a bigger chance to attack the Abyssal Citizens.

The refugees from Gate Village have not even arrived at the Agricultural Village.

When that happens, they will lose many lives.

Randi couldn't let that happen.

"Please, that's enough."

Behind, Elisa groaned.

The girl is healing Randi. She did not participate in the fight, but she also felt the pain received by the group members, especially for Randi, who continued to force both hands to use Ulterior Phantasm.

"Randi! I need your hand," call Lucas.

Randi once again gripped his two swords, leaving Elisa who unable to enter the battle area.

Unable to hold back the pain, Elisa groaned once again. "Anyone, please, help them."

"They can just let that giant monster leave Giant Leaf Woods and leave him to us," said Jeff simply.

"Well, they didn't do that because they don't know that we are here."

"You told them then."

"No, you are this woods Ranger, you told them."

"There is nothing to do with me being Ranger. You have the idea, so you told them."

"Nah, you told them."

"You fking told them now."

"What you mean? You told them."

"No, you fking told - "
