Chapter 181 - Chapter 180: A Difficult Battle

Tia's death made her sister Tina extremely angry.

Without hesitation, Tina charged towards Renner, but the soldiers were not idiots.

Swords and blades all swung towards Tina. Despite her excellent agility, she couldn't withstand attacks coming from all directions.

Soon, due to her carelessness, her leg was struck, and next, she was met with a continuous barrage of attacks from the soldiers.

As a ninja, Tina's body was quite fragile, and the successive attacks left her in a miserable state. Moreover, because of her brief moment of anger, she had now fallen into the soldiers' encirclement.

Trapped in a tight spot, she couldn't escape on her own.

With her teammates occupied elsewhere, Tina could only desperately fend off the soldiers' attacks.

As her wounds grew more numerous, her gaze became increasingly hazy.

Until a soldier delivered a fatal blow.

Tina could only helplessly collapse.

After rescuing Gagaran from Climb's hands, Lakyus discovered Tia in the corner, pierced through with a spear.

And just then, Tina, who had been partially hidden among the soldiers, was also spotted.

Lakyus quickly cast healing magic on Gagaran.

Gagaran's wounds visibly healed at a rapid pace.

However, Climb rushed forward without hesitation, interrupting Lakyus' healing.

Climb's bleeding from his seven orifices had intensified, and the blood on his face now covered nearly a third of it.

He looked even more insane, and the soldiers kept their distance, fearing Climb might go mad and start attacking his own men.

Climb and Lakyus began to fight, with neither of them gaining the upper hand.

Meanwhile, Gagaran's hands were fully healed by Lakyus' magic, and with a moment of respite, she started drinking healing potions.

After downing several bottles, Gagaran's injuries were mostly healed.

Without hesitation, Gagaran took a soldier's weapon and charged toward them, determined to break through the soldiers' defenses and kill Renner.

At this point, Climb was already delirious—the side effects of the stimulant enhancer were too strong. Climb's sanity was almost gone.

"Kill her! Kill her!" Climb repeatedly shouted as he attacked Lakyus, his words emphasizing his single-minded goal.

Climb could only use words to assert his purpose, as his grip on rationality was slipping away.

With each repeated shout of "Kill her!" in Climb's mind, the only thought left was that singular obsession.

Climb's attacks gradually became erratic, his movements driven purely by madness.

Although Lakyus was a priest, her combat skills were still quite formidable.

She handled Climb's attacks with ease.

Gagaran's combat ability completely overwhelmed the soldiers; they were no match for her.

Gagaran easily knocked back soldier after soldier.

As the soldiers fell one by one, fear began to spread among them.

The soldiers kept their eyes on Gagaran, not daring to lower their guard. No one was paying attention to Renner.

Renner picked up a long spear. She raised her hand, preparing to throw it—the same way she had killed Tia earlier.

Now, with her full strength, Renner's combat ability was so formidable that even if everyone attacked her at once, they still couldn't defeat her. Of course, Peroroncino was an exception.

If Peroroncino were to join the fight, Renner might lose control again.

Renner had reached level 60, matching the same level as Evileye. However, while Evileye only specialized in magic, Renner was skilled in both magic and close combat.

Renner's strength was all-encompassing, whereas Evileye was powerful in just one specific area.

Renner's natural talent was already impressive, and with the enhancement from the Staff of the Administrator, she could easily overwhelm Evileye in terms of magic alone.

Gagaran, being quite tall, easily spotted Renner picking up a long spear behind the soldiers.

In Gagaran's mind, Renner was just a helpless little chick, completely lacking in combat ability.

She scoffed at Renner's attempt to wield a weapon.

Just a moment ago, Lakyus had noticed the deaths of Tia and Tina. Gagaran, preoccupied with being held back by Climb, had not noticed.

Furthermore, the two had not communicated. Gagaran was unaware of their deaths, nor did she know that Tia had been killed by a spear that was thrown.

Gagaran did not see Tia and Tina fall and assumed that, like her, they had just been careless and gotten injured or perhaps taken some drugs.

She never considered the possibility that they had died, especially since their team had gone on countless adventures together and knew each other very well.

In Gagaran's mind, Tina and Tia would never do anything without being certain of the outcome.

Tia and Tina, indeed, would never take risks without being sure, and they had thought the same as Gagaran—that Renner was probably a defenseless person. Otherwise, she wouldn't have relied so heavily on the Blue Roses before.

However, after hearing Evileye's words, "If we don't kill her, we can't leave here," Tia and Tina began to think a little more highly of Renner.

They assumed Renner was a magic caster, like Evileye.

They were correct that Renner was a magic caster, but they did not realize that she also possessed overwhelming close combat power, defense, and speed.

Tia and Tina likely wouldn't have been able to harm a single hair on Renner, even if they used every technique they had.

The only ones in the area who could hurt Renner were Evileye.

.......

Gagaran noticed Renner's movements but had no intention of paying her any mind.

The soldiers, after being overwhelmed, began to retreat, with only the shield-bearers holding their ground.

However, Gagaran, using her physical strength, grabbed one of the shields with a single hand and flung the soldier holding it out of the way, stealing his shield in the process.

With the shield in one hand and the sword she had taken in the other, she charged toward Renner.

The soldiers, originally numbering over a hundred, quickly began to break apart under Gagaran's one-sided slaughter, abandoning their task of protecting Renner.

After all, they had only come to rescue someone after hearing the cries for help, with no orders from their superiors. Without anyone giving them directions, they fled, knowing their commanding officer had already been the first to die.

The remaining fifty-odd soldiers completely gave up the fight and fled toward the door.

The door was too small, and with so many people, they couldn't escape at once. It had been easy for them to enter in an orderly fashion, but now they were bottlenecked, unable to escape in the chaos.

As the soldiers scattered, Renner threw her long spear.

This caused Gagaran, who had thought victory was assured, to widen her eyes in surprise.

The spear's speed was far beyond what Gagaran had imagined.

However, years of adventuring experience allowed Gagaran to raise her shield in time.

The spear collided with the shield, making a sharp, clear sound. The spearhead pierced straight through the shield.

It aimed directly at Gagaran's body. In a split second, Gagaran discarded her sword with her other hand and grabbed the spear with her bare hands.

In a life-or-death moment, Gagaran successfully caught the spear, preventing it from impaling her stomach.

But the hand that grabbed the spear was already bloodied and mangled.

The immense friction from grabbing the spear had torn the palm of her hand, leaving it covered in blood.
