Chapter 29: Chapter 29 - Brutal Dungeon
Fortunately, Link went to Eina to obtain detailed information before entering the dungeon, which also included the general route for each floor, so as not to get lost.
The only fatal thing is that the movements when running and attacking will pull on the wound, which is extremely painful.
But now it doesn't matter anymore.
If he can trade his own life for Olga to live, it will all be worth it!
Link rushed forward, killing more than a dozen monsters along the way. Due to the attacks of these monsters, the last piece of Fire Spirit Cloth on Link's body had been torn into tatters.
After dealing with the fire attack launched by hellhounds in front, he gritted his teeth and quickly eliminated the remaining monsters.
Link's remaining physical strength also began to rapidly decline.
There were simply too many monsters, even the weak Horned Rabbit, after they threw stone axes together, the attack was like a torrential rain, making it difficult to deal with.
Not to mention the occasional elite monsters, such as saber-toothed tigers, minotaurs, and hellhounds.
The tattered cloth of the fire spirit could no longer effectively defend against the Hell Hound's flames. Link forced himself to resist once again, blocking the dangerous attack for Olga.
However, due to the tattered cloth of fire essence, the flames burned many places with holes, and many places on Link's body turned into burnt flesh.
Link gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Fortunately, the road is endless, and according to the direction pointed out by Eina in memory, the two soon arrived near the vertical hole.
If I can return safely this time, I must thank Aina.
"Here!"
Link drank several bottles of potion and gave several more to Orica.
He originally thought that the potions I took out were of little use, but I didn't expect that he would now use these potions.
After a few bottles of potion entered his stomach, his injuries and physical strength began to slowly recover, and Link couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He thought that he had a chance to breathe temporarily, but the dungeon was determined to keep Link and Olga here.
A total of ten Minotaurs with stone axes blocked the path leading to the cave as if they were deliberately waiting for Link and Orika to come.
The bodies of these ten Minotaurs were stronger than those encountered before and they all carried huge stone axes in their hands.
There is no doubt that these ten Minotaurs are all enhanced species without exception!
The elite monster among elite monsters!
The higher the hope, the worse the despair
"Olga..."
Link lowered his eyes: "I will create opportunities for you!"
Link tightened the bleeding bandage around his waist, grabbed the spear in his hand, took a deep breath, and rushed towards the Minotaurs with an indomitable momentum.
"Lord Link!"
"I said… I will definitely protect you!"
Link's voice was weak but firm: "Even if I use these twelve lives here!"
"Muuuuuu—!"
The Minotaurs let out strange cries, as if mocking the overestimation of the humans in front of them.
How dare a weak and severely injured human rush towards them?
(Translator-san: Are you courting death? xd)
"Moo!??"
However, even such a weak human, with an unwavering determination to die, stood in front of the ten giant Minotaurs and blocked their offensive.
The spear held the stone axe they had cut down and then quickly brandished it!
Link's strongest will is poured into every attack he makes! Every strike and slash can easily penetrate the stone wall and split the ground!
At that moment, Link felt calmer than ever.
There is only one belief in his heart: to tear apart all the monsters in front of him!
He will tear off a piece of their flesh in one bite even if he dies!
The fiery light gun enveloped the tip of the scarlet weapon, forming a dazzling blast. Four or five Minotaurs that were unable to dodge, as well as dozens of monsters in front, died one after another in this terrifying attack.
But the void was quickly filled by monsters.
The remaining Minotaurs wielded huge stone axes and attacked Link, but Link could only dodge and resist.
Boom!
The stone axe struck the ground, and the great force caused the ground to crack and a large amount of gravel to shoot out.
Link let out a sigh, took up his spear, and charged forward again.
The approaching horned rabbits, hellhounds, and saber-toothed tigers all turned into dead souls, but the Minotaur's ferocious attack also followed.
He raised his spear and gritted his teeth to block the Minotaur's stone axe. Before Link could counterattack, another Minotaur's stone axe struck him on the spot to dodge it, but the third and fourth Minotaur also attacked him.
Link continued to dodge monster attacks while killing other monsters.
Under the siege of the Minotaur and other monsters, Link's body once again received large and small wounds, and his armor and shirt were torn into tatters. There was almost no good spot on his body and almost all of his body had blood.
However, amidst the intense attacks of these monsters, Link also entered a very strange state.
When all his energy is concentrated on the battlefield, he is completely focused and focused on the battle, and the only presence of the enemy among his five senses is the presence of the enemy.
Every movement of the other party seemed to become slower and clearer.
When the monsters raise their claws, Link seems to be able to predict the opponent's attack in advance, dodge it or take the opportunity to attack.
The opponent skillfully avoided the monsters' attacks, and even took the opportunity to kill two more Minotaurs.
The remaining monsters roared and charged at Link again angrily.
Countless light weapons were fired, shattering the monsters' furious offensive.
"Olga! Run!!!" Link shouted.
But Olga did not choose to run away.
She had been accumulating magic power in the back. At that moment, she firmly faced the monsters in front of her and clenched the wand in her hand.
"Thunder!!!"
A powerful bolt of lightning shot out and pierced through the advancing group of monsters.
The remaining Minotaurs were reduced to ashes by this sudden magic attack.
The siege was finally lifted.
Seeing the monsters in front of him turn into ashes, Link felt his body light up and suddenly fell to his knees.
He couldn't help but cough out a large mouthful of blood. The physical damage accumulated from the continuous battle finally erupted at this moment.
He no longer has much physical strength. If he continues to passively defend, the situation will become increasingly unfavorable.
Thanks to Olga, the siege of the monsters has been lifted and now it is time to retreat.
"I can't... fall yet..."
He really wanted to fall to the ground immediately and sleep well, but once he fell here, death would be the only thing waiting for him.
He can't stop yet!
Link drank two more bottles of potion and then forced himself to stand up with Olga, weakened by the consumption of too much mental energy and magic power, quickly ran away in the direction of the safe point.
