The Hunter System
Chapter 160 - Saving a City S In a Brief
The gate of the Maxwell family has been successfully penetrated by the lich troops.
Many hunters have died and not a few of them are seriously injured.
Likewise happened to Sam and Lowe, who became the frontline commander of the defense. They were already dying and could now only stay inside the castle after Robert and Erfhina had evacuated them.
Cyntia, once again, became the last defense guarding the castle's doorstep, preventing the human-like monsters from entering the castle and killing everyone who took refuge in it.
He's already very overwhelmed. Many attacks have also hit it. If not for the costume that Alvin gave him, his body might have been shapeless as a result of having received dozens of lich attacks that could no longer be fended off or avoided.
.........
"Miss Tia, look out!" vernon exclaimed from behind Cyntia as he saw the lich coming from the side with a sword pointing towards Cyntia's neck.
Taps... Sratt...!
Cyntia caught the sword with her hand and slashed the neck of the lich with a dagger that was in the other hand.
Only one dagger was left after the other dagger was destroyed. He has struggled to use only one dagger given Alvin in the past 1 hour. That was why he could not use his fighting techniques to the maximum.
Cyntia received another attack from another direction and bounced away from it.
Because the woman had moved from the castle gate, dozens of lich that had been for 30 minutes trying to enter the castle finally managed to enter the raid.
Vernon, who had been seriously injured and was sitting near the castle gate, became the first hunter to be attacked by a lich.
Cranks...
The previously bounced Cyntia had returned. He fended off the lich's attack and made the only remaining dagger finally destroyed until the woman finally had to fight with her bare hands.
He jumped here and there, beating the lich-lich who had managed to break into the castle and wanted to attack the wounded hunters and rest there.
Cyntia continued to move around and fight with her bare hands until she slipped and fell when her stamina was completely depleted.
It was at that crucial moment that the entire lich that was inside the castle suddenly lost their heads almost simultaneously.
The head of the lich-lich disappears in less than a second per lich.
The lich-lich that had lost its head then fell, burned, and was thrown from inside the castle without anyone seeing who had done that to them.
.........
Alvin suddenly appears next to Cyntia. He took Vina down from his carrier and sustained Cyntia's body before finally channeling the healing skill to her.
"You're back, '" murmured Cyntia slowly before fainting from exhaustion.
Alvin laughed as he watched the woman wake up again after he recovered his stamina as well as his Mana energy in just 10 seconds.
"What is your healing skill?"
"I'm sorry I woke you up again."
"No... I mean. your healing skills are amazing."
Alvin just smiled as he looked at Cyntia's face filled with sweat and blood.
'The coin is still 7.'
Being stared at like that, of course made Cyntia misbehave. He immediately turned his face towards Vina and was shocked when he saw Vina's enlarged stomach.
His gaze rose to Vina's face with her mouth wide open.
Vina smiled wryly as she looked at Jack who was standing behind Cyntia.
Cyntia followed Vina's gaze and forced her smile on Jack.
"Don't smile at her" said Alvin, looking at who Cyntia was smiling at.
"Yes?"
"If he wasn't my niece's father, I would've chopped him off, '" Alvin said, looking at Jack angrily.
'This scoundrel... Dare to feel good when I am lost and suffering.'
"Did he rape Vina?" Cyntia asked in a half-whispering voice. He looked at Jack again with a displeased look.
Alvin nodded.
"Should I kill him?"
"..."
.........
He was shocked to see the lich-lich that for the past week had surrounded and destroyed the gates of the walls the Maxwell family had scattered on the castle floor also filled the castle grounds.
They have died completely.
Cyntia turned her head and looked at Alvin again.
'When did he finish them off?'
Feeling the silence, the woman realized that all the hunters around them were staring at Alvin in silence. Arthur and Marco reacted the same way. Their faces of amazement and astonishment were on Alvin.
How not. They've worked hard risking their lives just to dispel the lich forces. Many of their colleagues were killed in the initial attack.
But, all the lich instantly died once Alvin arrived at the castle even they did not see when he finished off the monsters.
.........
Normally, hunters would celebrate victory by cheering gleefully after successfully winning a battle against a Dungeon monster, especially when winning a Dungeon Break like this.
This time, they just flinch. The astonishment and curiosity of the hunters, masked their joy.
Seeing Alvin successfully eradicate the entire army of The Destroyer at that time alone had amazed them, especially now when he eradicated tens of thousands of lich very easily.
"His strength is on a different level" thought Lowe Frostman who was still lying down due to his severe injuries.
He was more amazed at Alvin when he felt the healing skill that the man betrayed him, as well as all the hunters who were injured simultaneously.
......................
Alvin goes out of the castle after curing all the wounded hunters.
The insect army tasked with finding the necromancer in S City had already gathered in the courtyard of the Maxwell family castle when Alvin had just exited the castle gate.
In fact, they were the ones who had finished off all the lich just by searching and killing the 30 necromancers that resided in some of the tall buildings of S City.
"They're getting stronger in just 8 months?" thought Cyntia was watching the insect army with Alvin.
Seeing Cyntia's gaze and curiosity clearly drawn on her face, Alvin immediately returned the insect army into the portal.
If Cyntia had just thought that way, let alone those hunters who were still inside the castle.
He did not want to bother answering the curiosity of the hunters.
"You want to go again?" cyntia asked, seeing that Alvin seemed to be preparing to leave the place again.
"They still control 3 other cities."
Cyntia smiled bitterly. He wanted to join but could not do so because he still had a lot of responsibilities to do in the castle.
Alvin turned around, looking at Vina who was also looking at him with anxiety in Jack's arms.
"Can I leave Vina to you?"
Cyntia followed Alvin's gaze and smiled at Vina as their gazes met.
"of course. Let them stay in the castle while the hunter-hunters clean up the entire monster's corpse."
Alvin shook his head then looked up at the dozens of locusts that looked in the distance, carrying Raymond and his 6 men.
Alvin has assigned them to pick up Raymond and his team of miners who are hiding in Rufino's company bunker so they can collect lich bones in S City.
"They'll do it."
"Yes?"
"I need their bones to patch up the loss" Alvin said, leaving Cyntia even more confused.
On the way to S City, Vina had informed him that the entire stock of the set of armor in the warehouse she had donated to the City T hunters to help them fight against the lich forces.
"Actually..., where have you been for the past 8 months?"
"I.." Alvin rubbed his beard. It had been his habit since he could not shave his beard and mustache, but he immediately stopped what he was doing when he saw Cyntia laughing.
'Dangerous. He must think I'm like a human who just came out of a cave.'
