Runemaster in the Last Days

"You want to give up?" Peter asked back.

"No." Dina looked at the soldiers who were already moving the people to get into the underground bunker. "It's called strategic retreat."

Even if City J Base ended up destroyed, the most important thing is that the people around were still alive.

She could find other chance to build the base again in the future.

Anyway, she needed these fledging demonic magicians to survive and grew. Otherwise, the power she could get from their feedback would be too small for her improvement.

That wouldn't do.

"Tsk, you're a coward as always." Peter clicked his tongue.

"Better than a hot headed idiot like you who only know how to charge forward."

"Heh."

The two of them stopped paying attention to each other.

The golem was coming closer and Peter's body was taut. He was prepared to make a move when the golem was close and if Samuel didn't make a move.

Because he knew that the golem's attack power was not that big.

With his physical strength, it should be possible for him to block it for a period of time and during that time, Samuel's attack would be the one that play the decisive role.

Riya's side

Bang!

Riya arrived at the scene and she looked at the large crater on the ground with dark face. She knew very well what the meaning of this large crater is.

The entrance between the crack and the Green Planet has become bigger.

And those giant magic beasts would be able to come out through this crack.

"Damn it."

Many rank 7 magic beasts are giants and when Riya first entered the crack, she felt that they wouldn't be able to come out anytime soon. But this golem had told her very clearly that these magic beasts could forcefully make their way out.

The shield did nothing to block them.

And looking at the large number of mana eaters in front of her, Riya took a deep breath. She will have to go all out now.

*roar?* <Master?>

"Fight with all you got…. Don't die."

Swish!

Several runes plates appeared on Riya's hand and then she threw it towards the edge of the cracks one by one.

*roar* *roar*

Countless magic beasts were killed as the killing formation was activated and then Riya used this chance to enter the crack.

When she saw the scene in front of her, she froze.

Because she could see that the entire ground seemed as if it had been forcefully opened and there was a large gap on the ground. Under the ground, which was as thick as a few kilometers away, there was a completely different world.

A world filled with rocks.

And these rocks were slowly moving one after another.

"The Rock Golem's lair right here?" Riya asked, her tone contained disbelief and frustration. She knew very well that once these rock golems came out of the crack to the Green Planet, City J Base would have to be bombarded with nuclear weapon.

Even then, there was no guarantee that they would be able to defeat these magic beasts.

Because based on Riya's estimation, nuclear bomb's power was only somewhat comparable to rank 5 or rank 6 magician's power.

And these golems were all rank 7 magic beasts.

It's a completely different level.

Riya took a deep breath.

"How should I deal with it?" Riya looked at the golems in front of her with a frown. Right now, Mo was outside dealing with the few magic beasts that got away from the formation killing, so no magic beasts came in from outside.

If they came out from inside, then they have to deal with a few formations that Riya had activated.

The problem is…

These formations couldn't deal with these golems.

"Then there's only one method." Riya looked at these golems and then turned to a somewhat open area on the side.

She's not very smart and she didn't have strong attack power either.

But Riya knew that she could not let these magic beasts go out.

No matter what, she didn't want to see the entire planet got destroyed because of these golems.

It's strange to say.

Riya has always wanted to hide far away from others. She didn't want to be found by others about her ability and lived a relatively ordinary life. It would be very troublesome for others to come and ask her to do many things because of her ability.

Only in this way would it be possible for her to live a peaceful life.

But when Riya saw these golems, she completely understood that there were not many people who could stop them.

Perhaps, she and a few other people were the only one.

But they were not here right now.

So since she's already here….

It's better for her to deal with these magic beasts.

There was a faint helpless smile on Riya's lips. Perhaps even if she said that she didn't want to care, it was impossible for her to truly not care.

But if she was asked to sacrifice herself for the sake of strangers whom she didn't know…

Then Riya could only say that it's impossible.

She's not so noble.

Swish!

Within seconds, the formation was ready.

It was a teleportation formation and Riya connected it to another formation that she had made in the crack before.

She looked at the golems around her and then draw more runes.

Swish! Bang!

Several elemental arrows hit these golems

*Golum*

The golems turned their attention to Riya and then went on their rampage. There was no roar or anything like that as these golem's language was different. But they rushed over in Riya's direction and then suddenly stopped in place.

"Goodbye."

Riya smiled and then activated the formation.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Several golems immediately disappeared.

But even with that, there were still a dozen more golems left in this place.

The number of golems in this place was not so small, after all.
