Runemaster in the Last Days

"Damn it."

Dina didn't need Peter to inform her. Standing on top of the special platform that was built in City J Base, Dina was able to see further than others. From this direction, she could see that the mana eater was still alive.

Her magic spell was not very effective against it.

Taking a deep breath, Dina chanted once again, "I am the lord of the dark. May the darkness come and envelop the entire world. Block every ray of light, descend onto the world and cover every surface in the darkness. Darkness is the greatest power in the entire world. Let the darkness come, Dark World!"

Whoosh!

This time, the dark element magic was concentrated on one point, which was the mana eater that was coming in their direction.

The dark element magic completely drown the mana eater and it was unknown whether it was still alive or dead.

Dina looked in the direction of the mana eater nervously.

Swoosh!

And there it is, coming again.

"Damn it! Come again!"

"I am the lord of the dark. May the darkness come and envelop the entire world. Block every ray of light, descend onto the world and cover every surface in the darkness. Darkness is the greatest power in the entire world. Let the darkness come, Dark World!"

Hearing Dina chanting the same magic spells again and again, Peter was speechless.

Didn't she see that the magic spell didn't work?

Why did she has to repeat it over and over again?

"Are you stupid? Use other magic spell!"

"This is the highest ranked magic spell that I know that I can use, you b*stard! Just shut up!"

"But you won't be able to kill it this way!"

"As long as I hit it several times with the same magic spell, I'll be able to kill it!"

"It doesn't work that way!"

"Just shut up, you idiot warrior!"

"You're the stupid one!"

In this way, the two people were shouting to each other while Dina was still using the same magic spell to fight against the mana eater.

The other soldiers silently focused on their task, ignoring these two people. These returnees were indeed powerful, but they were all very eccentric and impossible to control. Even the higher ups didn't give them any order to absorb these returnees into the army or anything like that.

So seeing these people fighting against each other…

They could only stay silent.

While Dina was having difficulties dealing with the incoming mana eater, Ruth was also looking at the mana eater that came with a frown. She naturally also recognized the mana eater, but she was not very good at dealing with it.

After all, a mana eater is a very troublesome magic beast to deal with.

It was also famous in that world and many magic warriors gave up attacking it because they couldn't defeat it.

Ruth used to be among them.

"But this time… I have to defeat them…" Ruth took a deep breath as she focused her attention on the mana eater in the distance.

She knew that she's only a rank 5 magic warrior and this mana eater could possibly be of higher ranks.

But she had no other choice.

"Piercing arrow."

Swish! Bang!

The arrow pierced through the mana eater and pierced the ground behind it hard. The mana crackled within the mana eater's body, but disappeared soon enough. This meant that the attack was not very effective.

Ruth clicked her tongue.

The problem is that her mana is limited and it's basically impossible for her to take care of so many mana eater at the same time. In the distance, she could see that there were more magic beasts, she meant, mana eater coming.

As these mana eaters got closer to City J Base, the situation in the base will turn for the worst.

Because she didn't have the confidence that she would be able to stop it.

'Calm down, try other method.'

Her mana has been depleted through continuous use of mana when she fought against other magic beasts in the past day. There were so many magic beasts coming that it was impossible for her not to use her mana.

Magic warriors were not exactly a profession with a lot of mana in the first place.

This made it difficult for her to use magic spell that required high mana.

But mana eater could only be dealt with using mana…

"This is really troublesome… elemental arrows."

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Following that, there was a rain of arrows coming towards the mana eater in the distance. Ruth didn't hold back in the slightest bit and continued to fire shoot after shoot. Her arrows were formed through mana and also this bow.

The making of the bow allowed her to conserve a lot of mana compared to using ordinary bows.

This was the reason why she could fight for hours.

But this didn't mean that there was no consumption at all.

Her mana has been consumed more than half and if she didn't find any magic spell that suited to kill the mana eater in front of her, then it was certain that she would not be able to survive.

"Tsk."

Swish! Bang! Bang!

Under the continuous attack from these returnees, these magic beasts were unable to come any closer. Not to mention, some of their magic spells were also affecting the other magic beasts, lessening the burden of these soldiers.

For Dina, she needed to use the magic spell for five to six times against one mana eater and then it would be killed.

For Ruth, she would have to use a few magic arrows to shoot the mana eater.

Everything seemed to be going in a good direction.

Until they saw the giant that was coming straight towards City J Base. The large golem magic beast was more than 40 meters in height and its entire body was grey in color.

Samuel's lips twitched. "That's it! Who the hell attracted these magic beasts to come out?"
