Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master-Chapter 131 Get Out
Everyone instantly panicked. The vibration was getting stronger and stronger. The hunters glanced at each other. They had puzzled looks on their faces, trying to figure out what had happened. They were afraid if there was a threat or a more powerful monster appeared. If it was true, the hope they had created would crumble again.
However, something surprising shook that fear away.
Suddenly, all the monsters stopped attacking. They all looked desperate. The homunculus put down their weapons. The ogres and goblins knelt down. The harpies circled in the sky. Lawrence, who looked arrogant, suddenly curled in fear with his mouth wide open. It was as if the thing he had been afraid of, finally came true.
"Impossible…"
Wang Mei still couldn't process the current situation, but she took a chance on the situation.
"Do not just stand still! Attack them!" The woman's shrill voice echoed throughout the air, reaching every hunter's ears.
Thousands of hunters quickly attacked the remaining monsters. Without the slightest doubt, they slaughtered the monsters who were in despair. Even though only a few seconds ago the monsters appeared ruthless and vicious, now they have completely surrendered. There was no resistance at all. They let the hunters slaughter them.
Of course, this situation surprised Wang Mei, while her men didn't care. They continued to slaughter the defenseless monsters amidst the strong vibration on the ground. They were already drowning in anger after seeing the deaths of their comrades.
On the other hand, a black-haired man clad in golden armor was seen gazing at the empty air in the middle of the battlefield.
"What really happened?" murmured the man.
Ling Tian was taken aback by the drastic change in the situation. The front line suddenly became easy. His men slaughtered the monsters like livestock. They should be suppressed, yet it was the other way around.
Then, Ling Tian saw Lawrence who looked completely terrified. An opportunity finally appeared before him.
His eyes narrowed fiercely. Fire began to envelop his body. Then, he shot towards the monster…
"Arrrrrggh!"
Slash!
The burning sword swung in the air until the wind whistled. A head then rolled on the ground. Lawrence was beheaded in less than a second.
"Just this?"
There was no satisfaction at all after killing the monster. Ling Tian felt strange. The man realized something was wrong with the current situation.
"What is this…?"
GGGGRRRRRR
A huge earthquake shook the dungeon. However, the battle still continued. Wang Mei stopped killing the helpless monsters. Then, she went to the top of the fortified wall. The woman examined the situation of the battle, trying to figure out the cause of this oddity.
However, she found nothing. Wang Mei began to worry more about the earthquake than the tens of thousands of monsters surrounding her.
Suddenly, she felt someone's presence. Her eyebrows rose when she saw the figure.
"I-Isaac!?" Her mouth gaped widely when she saw Guo Chen's condition.
With a relaxed gesture, Isaac lowered the unconscious man from his shoulder. Wang Mei still opened her mouth widely with a puzzled look on her face. There were many questions in her head.
Just as she was about to ask, a question came out of the man's mouth with a strange aura emitted from his body. "Where's Cheng Ho?"
Hearing that, her face darkened. "He died." There was a bitter tone in her voice. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜m
Isaac just nodded. There was absolutely no sign of change on his face. The man really didn't show any expression at all. For some reason, this made Wang Mei wonder if the man felt something or not.
Was Isaac always putting his feelings aside, or was he just a cold-hearted person? She looked at the black-haired man for a long time.
"Hey!" Isaac snapped her from her reverie. "Don't daydream. I ask, who's in control now?"
Naturally, Wang Mei shook her head. She then tried to cool her head. "It's me."
"Good. We have to stop fighting. Ignore the monsters. It would just be a pointless massacre. Now, we have to get out of here quickly. This dungeon will be destroyed in less than a day."
Of course, the last words uttered by the man with the mysterious aura raised questions on Wang Mei's head. "Why—"
"We don't have much time," Isaac said. "Just do as I say."
Now, his words made Wang Mei squint her eyes. "You ordered me?"
"Should we argue in a situation like this?"
Hearing that, Wang Mei couldn't help but hissed in annoyance. She quickly jumped from a ten meter high wall, then ran through dozens of hunters.
"Everyone! Ignore the monsters who don't put up a fight! Let's get out of here as fast as we can!"
Wang Mei shouted in a loud voice, exerting all the air in her lungs. Her voice reached the ears of every hunter. They still looked confused by the instructions they had just heard.
"Huh? Did you hear that?"
"Should we stop?"
"Let these damn monsters live?! Fuck!"
They asked another person beside them. Yet, their swords were still swinging and piercing the monsters that didn't fight back. After the things they had gone through, of course they couldn't let them live. However, the hunters must still obey the orders of their leader.
Ling Tian who was at the front line also heard it. Not long after, Wang Mei approached him.
"Shall we back off?" he asked with narrowed eyes.
"Yes. This earthquake seems to be due to the dungeon's effect going down."
Ling Tian's eyes opened wide. So far, humans had tried various ways to destroy the dungeon, but they had never succeeded. Hearing the dungeon was about to collapse sounded like bullshit.
"How could that be?! Until when?" The man leading the Golden Dragon couldn't believe it.
Wang Mei hissed again. "I don't have much time to explain. Now, we better back off, or we'll be buried alive."
Ling Tian sighed. The man quickly pushed his way through the crowd of monsters, his body emitting fire and burning anything in his path. He shouted to his men, and the entire gold-armored army followed him right away.
Then, the huge fires burned one part of the castle, attracting the attention of the hunters. Wang Mei took advantage of this situation.
"We retreat! Retreat! Let's leave this place."
Seeing the number one hunter in China left the battlefield, the others finally chose to follow her. They followed the flow, and slowly thousands of humans left the castle.
Wang Mei turned her head towards the castle. Her eyes fixed on a man standing on top of the fortified wall. After that, she turned around and ran along with her men.
Isaac lowered his head, watching the dozens of humans flocking out of the castle. He was estimating how many humans would be able to survive the dungeon collapse.
The greater the number of troops, the more difficult their mobility was. With the number of hunters almost touching 1500, it would take a long time for them to get out of the dungeon, while they only had less than 24 hours.
The chances of them getting away were little.
"I need those humans to live. The nobles should think that they were the ones who defeated Earl Xenovia."
Isaac could have left them, but he needed a scapegoat. Earl Xenovia's sudden death certainly raised a mystery to the Dungeon Masters, especially the Dukes. They would get wary. If there was no certainty of the cause of the female demon's death, of course, they would try to find out about it.
However, that wasn't the thing that bothered Isaac the most.
He was worried about Duke Barbatos. The demon was known to have short-tempered. Duke Barbatos often acted based on his emotions.
Isaac still remembered that the demon once killed one of his allies just because he lost a battle in Mongolia. Duke Barbatos thought that there was a traitor who exposed his plans to the enemy.
Thus, Isaac didn't want to face Duke Barbatos's unexpected actions. Besides, he was recently in a bit of tension with the man.
"I have to reduce the number."
Isaac closed his eyes, trying to call Aman, but he didn't get any vibrations from her. The homunculus girl was already dead.
He took a deep breath. The Mortal Ring that was hanging around his neck was removed, then he accessed the inventory.
[Dark Fate is worn!]
Then, his entire body was wrapped in black metal. A dense aura of death roared into the air. After that, he pulled the Jade Blade. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂
"Time to kill the unnecessary troops."
Isaac jumped into the middle of the sea of ??hunters trying to save their lives. They all looked surprised to see the figure of a creature with a dark aura appeared in the midst of chaos. Some chose to keep moving. Some stopped because of his arrival.
"What's that? A monster!?"
"Dark Knight?"
"The Dungeon Master."
Various whispers echoed in the air. Not a word came out of Isaac's mouth. He simply raised his sword, then a huge whirlpool of wind swirled around the blade.
"Sorry, but all of you must die."
At that moment, the hunters quickly understood the situation. They hurriedly raised their swords and charged in unison.
However, they were too late.
A great typhoon swept them away even before they could move from their places.
