Hellbents
Chapter 42: Rescue Mission

When Hensel and Gretel leave the trail with the crumbs of the cake, Lorah and Ako accidentally point out their location through the bloodstains that stain the floor. In a quivering corner of her heart, Ava tried to calm herself down, seeking a rational explanation that supported the safety of the two.

This blood came from Ako's previous wounds that were still untreated.

At least, they were only injured, judging by the amount of blood that was not so much.

Right, they must be alive.

Ava walked down the corridor as fast as the wind, following the red stain that brought her upstairs. They escaped this far? Wh why? Remembering Dom, River, Ava, and Ib showed a dozen other hiding places not far from their starting positions.

... They're chased.

Now Ava hopes that her conclusion is simply the result of paranoia, anxiety and adrenaline spurring the brain, not a logical hypothesis, so she takes the worst possible out of this bad situation.

... However the level of the monsters he saw was at least five times that of Lorah's level.

No, if there is an attack there must be a trace left behind, because every time the banderhobbs attacked the floor of the ship at least cracked because of the old wood, plus the weight of frogs full of fat and mucus is not easy.

... But what if the ones chasing them were not banderhobbs, but other monsters?

No, if there was another kind of monster they would have seen it from earlier.

... Did the trail that Ava followed even come from Ako or Lorah? Holy hooch! Don't they-don't

Just stop! Ava had to stop thinking the no-no.

Lorah and Ako need his help, he must not be late.

Ava also added points to the speed status, jumping up to 21. As a result, every time Ava turned almost slipped because she was not used to the unfamiliar pace, the wet floor also did not help. One of the disadvantages of unnatural change, he did not have time to adapt.

Brak! Brak! Brak!

Ava instinctively stopped, falling miserably in her attempt to brake. Fortunately, a loud bang covered the girl's screech.

Brak! Brak!

The harder, whoever hit the door must have smashed it all over their bodies.

Bad news, the bloodstains Ava followed led to the commotion. As she peered over the wall, relying on her clearer eyes than usual, Ava saw a trail that stopped right in front of the door. And ... a giant banderhobbs who had been frenziedly knocking on the door, did not fit the narrow-looking hallway accommodating his large body.

Brak!

Wrebek!

Race: Banderhobbs

Level 84

HP 6534/6700

Abnormality: Bloody (HP is reduced by 1 point per second)

Damn it, level 80?! HP is almost full.

This means Ava should attack in vital areas, remotely, and secretly for her own safety.

He pulled the gun out of his pants. Ava wouldn't risk fighting the monster, it's better to lose a few bullets than to be swallowed by a frog, at least Ava's opponent this time is only one, if lucky he would only spend one bullet.

The clouds blocking the moonlight suddenly stepped aside, providing the girl with a clear view of her target head, as if nature were seeing and aiding her struggle in survival.

Ava almost smiled cynically with her own thoughts.

Shuts!

The tin projectile was embedded in the giant mushy head .., but the frog monster had not yet fallen.

Ava cursed her misfortune. The head of meat filled with fat fat fat fat frog was useful to slam bullet shots.

But those big banderhobbs were screaming out loud, in pain. What he did must have still eroded a lot of the HP the amphibian had.

HP 3134/6700

3000 Points more, if only the monster was thinner or he brought another weapon like a sniper rifle into this fantasy world, the bullet would have already penetrated the empty brain of the damn frog.

Slowly the giant body turned around followed by a bang that was almost like an earthquake, the green belly that was fluttering shook every step of the way. The shape of the monster made Ava disgusted just by looking at it.

He wanted those sickening creatures to die quickly.

So before the huge body that filled the passageway sank into the shadows, Ava fired another two bullets.

Dor's! Dor's!

Blood spurted from the frog's slimy cheeks.

Unfortunately one bullet can only hit a wall. Ava had no idea how magical skills worked in this dimension, but she acknowledged how impressive the banderhobbs that were at least 5 meters tall were completely melted between the darkness, perfectly hiding.

HP: 135/6700

Scant.

But with a bloody body, sooner or later the amphibian monster will die even if left. The problem is, now Ava is prone to danger, one sneak attack can be life threatening.

Where's that disgusting frog?

Mosses.

Wood weft.

Foul water and blood. In san-san

Whoa!

A long tongue stuck out, trying to catch Ava's waist, but the girl managed to roll away.

The top floor of the ship was silent without a sound, only Ava heard a heartbeat that seemed to be in her throat. The banderhobbs.

Where else is he?

He smelled the sea breeze and fishy slime.

In back!

"Akh!"

Unfortunately this time, the big webbed hands first grabbed his body.

Ava's chest was tight, sandwiched between rough soles intent on breaking her bones. He revolted, making the monster tighten his grip. For the size of a creature that has shed too much blood, its power is still great considering its high level. In an instant, intense pain melted him, Ava's ribs were broken. Sure.

Ava's eyes were spinning, dizzy. Every part of his body was throbbing, as if shouting that if he did not come off soon, things would turn critical.

Ava took a hard bite of the slimy skin that surrounded her, completely ignoring the fishy, rancid smell that pierced her nose, along with the sour and bitter taste that filled her mouth. The girl still tried to tear apart the meat of the monster that was presumptuous to threaten her life.

HP: 43/6700

They race time. Will Ava's body be destroyed first before this bastard frog loses all of its HP?

Suddenly, he heard a howl followed by a loud snoring.

An octave higher, his opponent's banderhobbs screamed in pain. Gray feathers peeked out from behind the gigantic body that was beginning to unfold. Lig! The big, yellow-bottled cat also scratched the frog's back. Dom?

The rows of sharp teeth of the two animals crazily sliced through the skin of the monsters trying to get rid of them from his slumped body. But alas, a large body also means a wider area to attack. Every time the Lig or cheetah falls, they jump again to disrupt the banderhobbs.

Until finally, the giant amphibian fell down with a loud debuman. The blood mixed with slippery mucus formed a foul pond from a large body whose skin was covered in wounds.

Ava was detached, but she still could not move.

"Rina!"

"Sister!"

"Oi!"

The girl's consciousness was released, welcoming the darkness.
