Life Howling Chapter 23

"And there's more than one?"

I could see countless skeletons behind the one that's before me. I couldn't get a feel for how many was there.

What the h.e.l.l is up with them.

Why are there so many? Do I have to break through all of them alone?

"f.u.c.k! What kind of co-op battle is this! This is bulls.h.i.+t, that's what I say!"

What the h.e.l.l is going on inside the head of the guy who made this d.a.m.n game, huh?

hwakk!

A light s.h.i.+ned from my body. The Divine Power leaped out from my anger. The power of Lyfedearc's Apprentice Warrior Steel Body Technique is now active.

Soon, the light turned to smoke and it was absorbed through my nose and ears. All the essence of Divine Power were inhaled into my lungs then spread throughout my body, adding power to my strength.

Tukk.

I threw my Nail Gun over to the side.

Kw.a.n.g!

Then, I ran towards the front with all my might.

Koong! Koong! Koong! Koong!

I ran forward like a tank smas.h.i.+ng everything down that was in front of me with my flail. Great amount of Divine Power was infused within my flail, making it appear that my weapon itself was on fire.

My flail was going through the two Skeleton warriors like tofu.

Kwah! wakh!

I put a snap in my wrist to make the flail spin before I sprung forward to aim at the guys behind the first two. I turned them into dust before they could react to my movements.

Shuook!

That's when it happened.

As I was smas.h.i.+ng one of them down, there was another one behind him coming at me with a sword.

"Uahk!"

I barely dodged by twisted my stance and took a step back. His broken allies were coughing up smoke in agony.

The one that tried to stab me was walking my way without any emotions. There were still dozens of Skeleton Warriors left behind them.

d.a.m.n. I've already used plenty of Divine Power…

"Tch. What to do…"

As I was thinking, he came at me slowly. When he approached me, he made a funny noise that matched his weird appearance.

"Eh? What the h.e.l.l is with him?"

tchhhk.

Other Skeleton warriors that were coming at me, had smoke burning from their eye sockets and I heard something burning.

"What? Is that what I think it is?"

I took a step back just in case. I could feel the wall at my fingertips.

"Basic Divine Light."

Pahht.

A light s.h.i.+ned from the wall. When the light around my hand intensified, the smoke that was coming from the Skeleton warriors got stronger as well.

Is this for real?

"Oh~ho. So, the Divine Power isn't strong enough for you, is that it? Basic Divine Light."

I tied the flail to my waistband, placed my hands on the wall to activate the Basic Divine Light a few more times. The whole place lit up because of it.

That's when I realized everything.

hrrrrr!

A blue light s.h.i.+ned from their body. Then, I heard "Kiahhhh."

Hah. isn't this something.

"The Basic Divine Light can only last for an hour… could I take care of all of them in that time frame?"

This is disappointing. It really is.

"The undead will always be a good source for the Divine Apprentice."

I took a step back yapping something that didn't make sense. My hands were on the wall again, using the Divine Light. It lit up the entire pa.s.sage.

Other Skeleton warriors that were at the end of the pa.s.sage heading my way, fell with smoke coming out from their sockets.

Pieces of bones were rolling around on the ground, and weapons were dropped.

"This is just too easy. Why was I worried about this?"

I began feeling bad for the others. Like Hye-Won for an example.

Few Skeleton warriors didn't walk. They ran towards me like crazy, but before they reached me they all burned up and fell the ground.

Bunch of fools.

"This is why undead will never win. They're too stupid."

Although my Divine Light is at a basic level, focusing and directing its strength did a lot of damage to them.
Is this rigged somehow?

I was busy thinking, forgetting that there still Skeleton warriors left. They were coming at me in flocks. Endless flocks, and I couldn't tell how many more of them was left.

The one who created this place wanted the fighter to lose his energy while fighting all these skeleton. It was completely obvious, but it was just manual labor for me. Something so trivial, yet annoying.

As I was returning to the way I came from, I used the same skill on the wall a few more times. When I
returned to the stone chamber, I sat down at its entrance and just watched the Skeletons walking in burn
down to the ground.

I watched the Skeleton bones stack up from the ground, and them trying to clear their way through.
But in the end, the light s.h.i.+ned through bones that were dispersed throughout. All this burning made me want to light a cigarette. So, I looked into my pockets, found a pack and took one out to light it.

Clink.

CHuahh.

"whew…"

I had no idea that a single cigarette could taste so good. I lifted the Steel Body Technique as I was taking a break smoking a cigarette.

"Kek. kekekeke."

Now, won't the guy who made this dungeon be surprised when he sees me? I was laughing hilariously at just the thought of it.

I must've spent about 40 minutes watching these stupid Skeleton warriors fall to their deaths. There's no way they could keep pouring out even after 40 minutes, could they?

There must be at least 300 skeletons that's on the ground. If I had to knock them down one by one… that would've been one h.e.l.l of an annoying job.

By the way….

I think I'm about done. Should I look into it?

I went out to where all the bones were scattered, and began moving them around. d.a.m.n. How could there be so many d.a.m.n bones?

I wonder if any of their weapons could be of use?

"Let's see…."

I lifted up the weapons and the armors, but they were all corroded.
