BXBX NOVEL Chapter 829 Things Are Harder Than What He Guessed
"Is he controlling them? Did he make them or what?!!"
"Don\'t tell me he is controlling them like a puppeteer! Like this, he has the fighting prowess of dark gold masters even before stepping into that realm!!!"
They kept speaking among themselves while fighting monsters coming out from the swamps around. When William dashed outwards and killed many hornets, cleaving lots of their wings, they all commended and praised him.
"Unluckily he can\'t repeat such a method at the flying monsters far away from the ground, tsk!"
This was their belief until William started releasing his explosive arrows. The result that didn\'t satisfy William was quite good in their eyes.
"He can shoot arrows quite well, that\'s a surprise!"
"These arrows are quite special… They are exploding much fiercer than any known grenade in our world…"
"I want to have fewer of these arrows, the more the better…"
Just as they were discussing how to get a few of these arrows, William then released another volley, totally different this time.
"This kid… Damn!"
"He used both his arrows and grenades, releasing much fiercer explosions and killing more of these hornets."
"He should stick inside the safe zones, depend on his arrows to secure himself while advancing…"
Their thoughts drifted around the last comment, thinking that William was going to advance slowly on the ground, hitting flying hornets every time they came down to attack him.
Yet when William moved, used his wind technique and rose high in the air, things became much more shocking to them.
"He…"
"No way! Is he going up there to fight them?"
"Won\'t he die if he fell from such height?!"
"Don\'t tell me he can fly!!!"
Masters kept watching in shock while William went high up in the sky and started to light up the dimness there. William kept moving forward, not caring about anything else. As for these masters, they tried to follow, faced tons of difficulties, ending up using the same safe zones William left behind to rest and save their lives even on many occasions.
The entire group of masters were hundreds in number, working previously in twenty separate groups. But right now, they all merged together, moving and fighting monsters in unison.
"We can\'t advance anymore," after a day and half, they finally reached their limit.
"What is he? A monster? A machine?!!"
"He is fighting monsters without a single moment of pause, using lots of elixirs to do so. It\'s truly a blessing to be rich…"
"Let\'s stick here and watch. He is releasing bright explosions in the sky, and like this we can track what he is doing, to some extent at least."
"Good point, let\'s stay and rest."
Just like this, the group of masters following him was pinned in their place, taking shelter in few of William\'s safe zones.
As they decided to stay and not fight nor advance, they returned to scatter again into twenty groups. After travelling and fighting in the swamps for a long time, they lost many members, and many more were hurt and poisoned.
William noticed their presence when they started to take shelter in his safe spots. He was fighting at high altitude, dealing with lots of monsters when he noticed the sudden appearance of a large group of masters, entering one of his safe zones.
It wasn\'t that difficult to spot them, especially with their high number and their presence in such a clear area. William was surprised at first, then decided to ignore their presence as if he didn\'t notice anything.
He guessed their origin, and knew they tagged along and watched him fight and do lots of things for a long time already. It wasn\'t a problem if they kept tagging along, as there was no point in keeping his fighting style secretive anymore.
William used his wind techniques coupled with his dashes to raise high in the air, fight monsters up there, and move forward at the same time. He thought he\'d be able to stay up there for ten minutes at least, half an hour at most. But that didn\'t happen.
The longest he spent was just five minutes, and he struggled so hard to stay for that long. The moment he appeared high above, he\'d have the upper hand against these hornets. Yet he\'d start losing such advantage with more time passing.
More hornets would flock him, come fast from all directions, and hit him hard. Even when he tried to move around using his dash technique, the hornets were agile enough to keep track of him.
He had to abandon his fighting adventure after a few minutes. The only thing that prevented these hornets from swallowing him with their dense numbers was his explosive arrows and grenades.
The first few times he had to run after staying up there for just one minute. He let his body fly freely, before using a mixture of his wind and dash techniques to change his route, evade lots of hornets, and kill more at the same time.
This made his fighting tactics change from focusing on killing these hornets at the sky, to mainly hitting them while descending to the ground. And luckily, every single time he fell to the ground, tons of hornets followed him like crazy, ending up losing many of their numbers under his arrows and grenades, sword and techniques.
The main problem he faced was his lack of strong backing up there. If he got a flying pet, or even a flying monstrous weapon, then he\'d be able to tear through all of these hornets, the same way he did at the ground monsters.
As for the ground battle, he entrusted everything to his two monstrous weapons. The grenades they released didn\'t explode in the same area most of the time. Yet a new safe zone was created from time to time, providing him with safe landing spots.
