'Is this how I'm going to die?' Only that thought crossed his mind right now, he was just a few meters away from his death just a few seconds from now that energy beam would be fired at him and the only result would be death!
There was no saving it now but Liam recalled that there is someone relying on him, he quickly placed his hands in front of his face even if he knew it was useless against such a powerful power beam.Meanwhile, the domeskulls kept powering up the energy beam it was holding in it's mouth, it was getting really close to shooting it at Liam.But at that moment, the ground beneath it froze up sending a chilling feels up it's large body.It looked at it's feet and saw the large mass of ice he was standing on top.It's monstrous eyes stared at the ice in confusion as though he was asking 'How did this suddenly appear here?'"Liam here is your chance." Clara alerted Liam immediately.Liam removed the hands blocking his face and saw that the domeskull was no longer aiming at him, this gave him the opportunity he needed.He landed on the broad shoulder of the domeskull and did a backflip to have a safe landing behind it.*Growl*The domeskull growed frustratingly, it's feet was buried in the ice and the domeskull found it extreme difficult to draw it out which resulted in the frustrated growl.Liam landed behind the domeskull and heaved several large sigh to catch his breath.After catching his breath, he turned his attention back on the battle and noticed the domeskull struggling to free its feet from the ice. This was the perfect opportunity to strike but he needed something really hard in other to take down this domeskull because punch won't do.He took a moment to assess his surroundings and saw a mass of ice that Clara had conjured with her magic. This piece of ice was especially thin, with a pointy end facing upward, it was just what Liam is looking for.Using the distraction, Liam sprinted towards the ice and broke it with a punch, he grabbed the pointy part, grasping it tightly in his hands trying his best to withstand the cold temperature and the slippery feels.Clara was fueling the "Frost trap" with her mana and her mana reseve was slowly draining out due to this, she looked at Liam and prayed that he act quickly before she run out of mana.It was then that Liam held the ice with sharp pointing end, he held it like someone who was about to throw a dark and let go of the ice.The ice gave a loud swooshing sound as it closed the distance.It pierced the neck of the domeskull and dug deeper into its flesh, nevertheless that was still not enough to kill the monster.Leonardo who has been standing in a corner ever since suddenly felt energetic, he brought out two daggers from his pocket and ran toward the domeskull."Fucking domeskulls, die! Die you fucking monster." He kept yelling as he closed the distance.He reached the monster after falling twice die to the icy ground, he held his two daggers and pierced it into the leg of the domeskulls.The domeskull yelled and was about to pound Leonardo with it's large hands when Liam arrived and held it's hands back even if it hurt him a little bit."You can do this Leo." Liam yelled at him.Leonardo looked at Liam who was struggling to hold the hands of the domeskull."Yes..I can do it, I can fucking do it!" Leonardo yelled out loud and repeatedly pierced the same spot on the domeskull.The domeskull let out several growls of pain and frustration, it tried moving his hands but it was caught in Liam's tight grasp, he tried moving his feets but it was buried in the Frost trap.It opened it's mouth and started powering up another energy beam."Shut your mouth, you dirty monster!" Leonard yelled out.Leonardo continued stabbing the domeskull with determination while yelling loudly to wash off the fear, he knew that the energy beam is destructive so he kept trying to prevent it from firing another energy beam.Clara focused all her remaining mana to strengthen the Frost trap, making it even harder for the domeskull to move its feet, her hand has gone numb from holding it in a position for too long but she swallowed the pain inside because the survival of everyone depend on how long she holds the frost trap.Liam kept holding the hands of the domeskull despite the pain in his hands from restraining the domeskull's powerful grip."Leonardo, we are going to die if you don't aft fast I'm loosing my grip on it. I thought you could use magic too? use your spells, anyone that can take this monster out."When Leonardo heard that he suddenly came to a realization that he was a magic warrior."Yes I am a proud magic warrior." He yelled and focused his eyes on his dagger, the dagger started to glow brightly as mana flowed through them.The mana increased the attack power of the dagger and also increased Leonardo's speed of using them, Leo grinned confidently and wrapped his two hands on the daggers."Take this!"He thrust the charged weapon at the domeskull, the charged weapons bore through the hardened skin and created a large dent.Leonard did not stop there, he placed his feet on the domeskull's knees and used the support to threw himself up to the height of the domeskull's head.With determination, he pierced the dagger through the large head causing the domeskull to fall to the ground lifelessly while it's blood dyed the ice red.As the lifeless domeskull fell to the ground, the three of them collapsed on the icy terrain, taking in deep breaths to keep their body stable after exhausting it on the last domeskull.Their bodies were exhausted but their hearts were filled with delight that they had survived such a deadly encounter.Leonard sat up and stared at the dagger in his hands, a delighted expression appeared on his face "I did it, I took down the domeskull."-"Congratulation, you took down the boss and completed the objective, here is a little reward for completing the challenge"--"The Exit portal is ready, you can exit the dungeon before it disappears in the next ten minute"-- "Congratulations, you took down the boss and completed the objective. Here's a little reward for completing the challenge."- "The exit portal is ready. You can exit the dungeon before it disappears in the next ten minutes."Aethervoice announced the end of their expenditure. At this moment, these were the words and voice they wanted to hear.Liam leaned on the body of the domeskull, panting to catch his breath, he was exhausted from fighting the domeskull.With the Aethervoice, he was assured that no challenge lay in front of him in this dungeon anymore so he could take his time to rest.After Aethervoice's announcement, a treasure chest fell out of nowhere and landed in the middle of the trio.Liam was the first to notice because he was very close to it.He was confused. Why was there a treasure chest falling out of nowhere? Who sent the treasure chest? What is in the treasure chest?Anyway, he heard Aethervoice's voice talking about rewards. He guessed that was the reward.He sto
Fredrick has been a prick right from the day Liam knew him at the age of 6. He was a bully and an arrogant bastard who did nothing but flex his parents' strength and wealth. He disrespected not only Liam but also everyone in his family – his father, his mom. He saw them as nothing but beggars and weaklings. He would tell everyone around him how weak Liam's dad was and how poor they were. He would call them names like "dirt eater" and "poverty-stricken bastards." If there was anyone he really hated, it would be Fredrick. 'What is he doing here?' The first question popped up in Liam's mind, and he started walking fast toward the house. Fredrick was standing in the midst of two scary looking men with dark shades and bald heads. He was pointing at the building while grinning; whatever he was saying would most likely not be good. "Fredrick, what are you doing here?" Liam asked with a frown. Fredrick noticed Liam's presence at that moment. He turned his head toward Liam and stared at
Liam has been living the past years grieving about his unfortunate life, how he was a weakling and how his parents are disrespected everywhere, including public places like supermarkets.He tried his best to make things go the right way, but they just never did.Throughout the years his parents were alive, they never hated him because he wasn't able to awaken superpowers, they loved him, they advised him, they cared for him, and they did all that in this house.This has been his home since he was 3, when the clan kicked them out of the mansion they used to live in.And now, someone who never cared about him or what he has been going through is planning to shatter all his memory and make it a place for pigs.He could not accept it![You used Martial King skills (flash steps)]He heard the familiar robotic system voice in his ear but he did not care, he closed the distance in a short amount of time now he was right in front of two men.He clenched his hands tightly and sent a punch aimin
Liam struggled up from the ground, his body filled with all sorts of wounds, and his clothes stained with his own blood.He looked at the demolished building and heaved a heavy breath, which held so many emotions including sadness and determination to grow stronger and exact his revenge on those who have erred against him.He placed his hand in his pant pocket and brought out a tiny bag. He opened the bag and stared at the amount of cash inside, his face displaying a smile."I should find a place to stay, one not too far from CGH and not too far from Bella," Liam thought to himself and started walking away.Leaving his past behind was hard, but he had to stay strong. Thinking about it too much would get him depressed, and that would result in him not being able to treat Bella and become the person he wants to be.Treating Bella, taking revenge for his parents, and becoming the strongest. Those are his goals, and Fredrick is too small to end that dream of his.Walking through the subur
Liam decided to stroll from the hospital to his new place. He deposited two hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars for Oxy-689, which would have served for just five days, but the doctor was kind enough to take that amount for two weeks.After spending that amount, he was left with just four thousand dollars. He used one thousand dollars to buy a new phone; the hero ID card served as an ID and a SIM card at the same time, so he didn't have to bother about getting a SIM card. All he had to do was scan the card, and it would immediately be registered on his phone. With it, he could access missions, find teammates, and even access special news meant for heroes only.Getting home, he was greeted with an overly annoyed Anabella."Where have you been? You've been outdoors for the past 5 hours. It's almost midnight; don't you know your landlady will be worried?" She pointed her finger and yelled at him furiously.Liam looked at her, confused about what reply to give.Anabella waited for
"Wassup, little rascals? You all already know my name, so no need for introductions. I will be the one leading the 2-star expenditure." Grim Blade introduced himself to the clique of Young heroes.His eyes moved from one of them to another, taking all their faces into mind, because he would be needing that later.When his eyes fell on Liam, he immediately let out a loud sigh. 'CGH loves doing this every time; they always have that one person in the group that is certain to die even under my close watch.'"We would be leaving in the next two hours, so before then, I would like to share a little rule with you guys and also some tips to aid your survival in case we get separated during the expenditure. Should I start with the rules or the tips?" Grim Blade placed his hands on his jaw in a thinking position.A young female hero, dressed in beautiful, revealing mage attire, raised her hand and quickly yelled, "Tips."Grim Blade looked at her and scoffed, "Who asked?"Then he turned to the
The young heroes gathered around Grim Blade after observing for themselves the gory sight of a large city in ruins.Liam paid attention to Grim Blade as he started speaking, "For those of you who have been in a dungeon before, I'm sure you would be able to tell that there is no dungeon here right now."Grim Blade started, he observed their expressions and continued after their different responses, "We won't be going into any dungeon because there is no dungeon in this place, but this place was graded as a 2-star danger zone.""Seven days ago, a dungeon appeared in this city. Not even CGH was aware of its presence until three days ago when the dungeon erupted, sending monsters to wreak havoc in this city. Many citizens lost their lives, and most of them were captured by these monsters. Your job right now is to hunt those monsters and rescue over ten thousand humans in their grasp. Sigh, that's our mission."Silence erupted in the team after his last words."Ten thousand people! Damn!"
It has been three hours already since the expedition began, and they have only covered a tiny portion of the total city looking for the hideout of the monsters.Both teams, be it the team of newbie heroes guided by Grim Blade or the team of experienced heroes led by Franklin and Sasha, have worked very hard in their search.They ensure to keep no spot unsearched; they searched every corner and ventured into buildings that stood amidst the destruction to see if the monsters might be keeping any of their captives in those places.Liam was focused on his search for monsters. He was extra cautious as he moved with the team, keeping his eyes pinned at every location, observing every and any movements while keeping an eye out for the others.Grim Blade was acting lazy as they marched through the place.He brought out a cigarette and smoked all the way.Nevertheless, despite this behavior, he still kept an eye out for everyone, ensuring that none of them walked about on their own.Meanwhile,
