Chapter 1364 1364. Master’s Bafflement

Master grimaced. He understood that the number of night hunters might increase with each night, but these were too many. No way the spike of difficulty from one night differed so much.

'Is this because we destroy the rune diagram? Something like an automated response?' Master wondered.

Even with his minions and a large number of AOE spells at his disposal. He still couldn't stop hordes of enemies that came from every direction. Master warned the others. Spring Crown rearranged their defensive formation to cover the side opposite from Master's position. This was so they could better focus their defensive efforts.

The defensive perimeter around Jack was now split into two halves. Master defended one of these halves while the others defended the other half.

When Grace's group saw the sea of night hunters headed their way, many couldn't help but feel intimidated. The only ones who were still steadfast were Grace, Spring Crown, and Therras.

Therras came forward and engaged the horde without fear. It used the Oppressive Wave and all the night hunters in a large area in front of it were obliterated. It then used Imperious Pressure to stop other night hunters that tried to run past.

Spring Crown began by using Weapon Storm. Sixty-three copies of powerful melee weapons flew out and struck all the night hunters. Each weapon killed a night hunter with one hit. He then followed up by using the Weapons Festival. Nine melee weapons floated around him. All nine moved in a way as if they were handled by nine different players. None of the night hunters managed to get past him.

Grace first cast the Chain Lightning she had learned from the universal technique book. The incoming night hunters were forced to stop their advance because a large number of their brethren in the front line were paralyzed by the spell. Grace then cast Armor of Ego and Mace of Selfishness.

The Mace of Selfishness successfully struck a night hunter and killed it. Grace had max-leveled this skill. Every two levels added an extra target to the skill if it didn't miss. The mace proceeded to strike another night hunter. It continued without missing a hit and killed fifteen night hunters.

Grace used her body as a shield to block the night hunters that tried to get past her. With her exceptional defense and recovery, she was not worried about the night hunters' high damage. She split her unique-grade long mace into two shorter maces and used her martial art, Phantom Beating Stick, to strike those night hunters back.

The others didn't have the time to be impressed by those three. They were busy trying to block the night hunter swarm and at the same time not getting killed.

Kramer was a level 53 special elite native. His level was the lowest among the others. Luckily, with the restrictions lifted, he was back to having high HP which was a native's characteristic. Hence, he was not immediately in danger. However, the side he was defending was the first to give in.

Tom went forward and blocked the night hunters who slip past Kramer. He first cast Soul Link at Windy, the other native in the group. With him sharing damage with a high-HP native, he should be safe even if he suffered a few hits.

He used his martial art, eagle claw, to grab the night hunters who got past Kramer and threw them back out of the defensive perimeter.I think you should take a look at

"Do not give in, everyone!" They heard Peniel's encouraging voice. She also cast Healing Field where Kramer and Tom were, increasing the survival chance of the two. "Jack had found the exit point. He is currently working to open it. He just needs another ten minutes!"

'Working to open the exit?' Master looked at Jack who was still sitting on the floor. 'What exactly does he do?' All his mana sense detected from Jack after Jack sat on the floor was a ma.s.sive spike in mana. After that, nothing. It was as if Jack had stopped existing even when Jack was clearly still there. Master couldn't help but be bothered by Jack's unknown ability.

His lapse of concentration allowed some of the night hunters to slip through. He cast Ice Wall and Chasing Arrows to stop those night hunters. The chasing arrows conjured arrows of pure energy that tracked targets. These arrows struck the night hunters that were blocked by the ice wall. However, a few night hunters survived and climbed over the ice wall. They were now in front of Jack.

The others weren't aware that some night hunters had breached through Master's defensive line. Even Peniel wasn't aware because she was busy healing the others opposite of Master's side. When Stefan, Winson, Windy, and Saddie, who stood the closest to Jack, noticed these night hunters. The night hunters were already dangerously close to Jack.

The night hunters' claws were about to hit Jack when a shadow rushed in. In a split second, this shadow walloped the night hunters and sent them flying back.

"Freddie…?!" Saddie called when he saw the one who had just saved Jack.

"Focus on your side! I will keep him safe!" Freddie told her.

The last time Saddie saw Freddie, Freddie insisted on remaining hostile to Jack. So, his appearance and his act of saving Jack just now surprised her.

The fact was, Freddie remained steadfast in his belief that Jack was trying to trick them. That was until he found out he could suddenly use his equipment and skills again. He knew then that Jack might just be telling the truth.

He had been trying to find Jack's team since then. If Jack was honest that he could escape this place, he didn't want to miss the chance. While he was searching around using his rare-grade steed, he saw something fly in the faraway sky. Something that left a fiery trail. He decided to follow that flying object.

That flying object was Pandora.

When he came near where the flying object stopped, he noticed the group fighting against hordes of night hunters. Some night hunters rushed past him not far away on his left and right, but they mostly ignored him. It was almost like these night hunters were fixated on Jack's group.

Seeing this scene, he was more convinced that the group must be his best chance of escaping this place. So, he stopped hesitating and rushed in to provide help.
