Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode



Lola collapsed on the ground. She still didn't even really understand what was going on. In the blink of an eye, a katana stabbed her in the stomach. Lola didn't even feel the pain a few seconds after the katana stuck.

"Blergh!"

Fresh blood came out of Lola's mouth. She felt completely panicked now. What was on her mind was only death that feels so close.

'I-I'm going to die!'

However, Lola was too worried without thinking about all the possibilities. She forgot that she had leveled up several times than before so her body condition was also much stronger.

Especially now that Clyde came at the right time and put a bottle of health potion in front of her face.

"Drink this. You're gonna be fine," Clyde said calmly.

Lola looked at him with eyes that were still full of terror and tears were now flowing freely from those eyes.

Clyde sighed. "You won't die. Your stats have increased, right?"

Only then did Lola realize it. 'Oh right.'

Seeing that Lola had come to her senses, Clyde immediately went to approach the others. Within this smoke, it wasn't only her who was having a hard time.

Clyde was quite impressed because the monster called Sapionus Rex could create smoke like this to trap the five of them.

That monster is like some kind of master assassin. Clyde suspected that the players who fought it in the Selection Stage must have had a hard time. Maybe they won't even be able to win against it and will be instantly killed.

The black smoke was still too thick for Clyde to see anything. In this smoke, Sapionus Rex must be hunting its prey with a wide grin on its raptor face.

Clyde decided to quickly dispel this black smoke before it kills all the party members.

[ Pure Lightning (Lv. 30) is activated! ]

*JJRZZZTTT!!!*

Lightning appeared around Clyde's body and spread around exposing the black mist. In the blink of an eye, the black mist disappeared as if devoured by the powerful bluish-white lightning that Clyde released.

Leon and Albert turned their heads with shocked faces toward Clyde. Sapionus Rex who had almost slashed Rosie's neck also showed the same shocked expression.

Seeing that, Rosie immediately turned her body around while swinging her hammer toward Sapionus Rex's head.

*BUAGH!*

A powerful hammer strike hit Sapionus Rex in the head and threw the monster several meters to the side.

Its body bounced several times on the ground before finally stopping and hitting the raised ground surface.

"Lola!" Rosie didn't follow up on the attack she did on Sapionus Rex. Instead, she chose to go over to Lola when she saw a wound on her stomach.

But now, Lola was able to sit up after drinking the health potion that Clyde gave her. She doesn't look in pain anymore.

Clyde stopped his lightning because now the smoke was gone. He didn't feel the need to act now.

While Rosie approached Lola with worried questions, Clyde turned to Albert, Leon, and Wiley.

Those who understood what Clyde meant immediately acted and moved towards Sapionus Rex.

The monster that realized that its life was being threatened immediately stood up even though the pain was still lingering in the side of its head that Rosie hit.

Sapionus Rex growled. Its eyes burning with anger stared at Clyde. However, deep down in its heart, Sapionus Rex knew that it couldn't win against him.

Clyde just stood there quietly staring at it with a straight face. He didn't even take out his sword because he felt it was completely unnecessary. If he wants, Clyde can definitely kill the monster with his bare fist.

Because of that, Sapionus Rex chose to attack the others because he knew they were weaker than it. But if Clyde continues to be there and mess up the plan, the monster won't be able to do much.

Because of that the Sapionus Rex felt frustrated. It could almost kill them. However, Clyde came and saved them.

"Attack it before it runs away again," said Clyde.

Lola was the first to jump into action with that remark. She took aim and it didn't take long for her to shoot because Sapionus Rex wasn't moving anywhere.

*SWIISSHH!*

Arrow flies toward its head. The Sapionus Rex noticed it and used its katana to block the arrow.

*ZAP!*

However, a moment later a lightning bolt shot out of Rosie's hammer and struck it square in the chest.

The Sapionus Rex was thrown backward. Leon, Albert, and Wiley immediately charged toward it.

*SWISSH!*

Another arrow came towards it. This time the monster couldn't parry it and could only let the arrow embedded in its shoulder.

Sapionus Rex immediately jumped up to get rid of the pain he was feeling. It then stretched out one of its arms and let out another black smoke.

However, Leon and Albert, who were already close to its position, immediately jumped forward through the smoke.

Sapionus Rex, who wanted to escape, was shocked by their decision and felt disappointed because he failed to escape.

So, it must attack. Because there's no other choice than that.

Sapionus Rex lunged at them and then slashed its sword at Albert. However, Albert had already activated his Skill.

The katana only goes through his body. Then Albert condensed his body again and launched a dagger slash at it.

*SRATT!*

The dagger only hit the Sapionus Rex's cheek as it managed to dodge in time.

Leon who was so close stabbed his sword.

*CLANG!*

But Sapionus Rex could still fend off the attack. The three of them were then involved in a weapons battle.

Daggers, sword, and katana clashed with each other with incredible force creating sparks and loud sounds of metal clashing.

Leon and Albert had no intention of giving the Sapionus Rex the chance to emit that black smoke. Or they will be back at a disadvantage.

Wiley seeing that Sapionus Rex's attention was locked on Leon and Albert, realized that this was a good opportunity for him.

He sneaks up with a blowdart ready in his hand.
