Chapter 183: Space Core

The dracanae ghouls had great vitality and strength that surpassed even the three Hs. With six ghouls launching a coordinated attack that struck the chest of a single dracanae, the impact caused their attacks to be buried deep, which then sent the dracanae flying back.

The twelve ghouls immediately divided into groups of four, and by using the opposing force from their attack on the two dracanae, they launched themselves towards the other three.

FWIP! FWIP! FWIP!

The arrows of Myas reached the remaining three as she shot three arrows aiming for the head of the three.

Although the attacks were weak, Myas was attacking from the side and caused the three dracanae to get distracted. The goal of these attacks, just like the previous explosive attack, was to take away the attention of the dracanae from the ghouls that were attacking.

Martha never underestimated the Path of Combat and Foresight of the dracanae. Even if they were staggering or stunned, they would still have the ability to perform evasion. And so, Martha told Hunter to give Myas the important task of shooting and to aim for the eyes of these monsters.

The attacks caused the dracanae to instinctively shift their heads to evade the arrow, causing the arrow to land on their forehead. The thick scale made the arrows simply fall off as they could not penetrate. But this priority allowed the dracanae ghouls to land their attack.

SMASH! SMASH! SMASH!

Each team of four ghouls was able to land an attack on the dracanae they were assigned. This time, the four were aiming for the head of the dracanae, and their punch and kicks knocked the dracanae back.

Without wasting a second, the four ghouls retreated and ran for Martha's location.

"Idiots! What kind of dragons believe that lie! I, your grandmother, bid your farewell!" Martha laughed as she retreated.

[Taunt activated.]

Hems had met up with Martha and threw Martha a new quiver of arrows and a bow as her previous bow and arrows were lost in her wild combat when the Dark Maddening had occurred. It was a good thing that Hunter and Myas found the bow on route to their current position. But since trying to meet up with this group still had too many dangers, Martha ordered Hems to provide another bow. 

All three of the Hs had prepared a set of bow and arrows before they charged in to rescue at the suggestion of Myas. With a bow in hand, Martha readied her attack.

"It's time to try them out..." Martha mumbled.

In the momentary gap when she was giving orders to the group as Dorothy ranted about the bizarre family tree, she was able to read up on the many new notifications that had appeared on her screen just as it did with Kyros.

Originally, Martha could only see very few notifications. But now, they were more detailed.

And these detils were shocking!

There was also the issue of her newly acquired jobs. Unknowingly, she received several specializations on her archer job class. She had known from an early notification that she had acquired the Ninja job class, but Martha was surprised to see a special variation to her ninja job.

Other curious parts were being displayed in the stat screen that had somehow appeared. But as of the moment, her immediate interest was on on a certain segment of all her displayed stats.

What took Martha's interest was the skills listed in the portion of her stat window, that talked about the Time-Space Core. It was these abilities that made her instruct the knights to hand her one magic restoring potion. 

Martha activated one of the spells that her Time-Space Core had.

[Haste activated.]

Feeling an increase on her speed, Martha instantly shot several rounds of arrows to the now recovering dracanaes.

[Explosive Arrows activated.]

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

The arrows struck the dracanae on the face, and they lightly groaned as their heads was slightly knocked back.

"What?!" The dracanae cursed.

A mysterious power enveloped the arrows that it flew faster than it should have. And so, the moment Martha shot the arrows, the Path of Combat was too slow in warning the dracanaes of evading.

Martha was stunned as she released the arrows. 

"The Haste spell also affects my bows?" She was stunned.

Aside from the spell, she could sense the vast improvements she had that even how she drew and pulled the bowstrings felt different. She was using a more inferior bow compared to the bow that she lost. But yet, she was still able to draw out the same strength from her attacks.

"It must be those job classes!" Martha rejoiced as she recalled the detailed changes in her stats.

The five roared angrily and chased after Martha.

Martha then started to jump back and shoot at the same time. So while her leaps had more power in them that she was still able to keep up with the running pace of Hems and the Coven.

FWIP! FWIP! FWIP! FWIP!

The attacks flew out and caused the dracanae to use their arms to shield themselves from the incoming volley as it was too fast to evade.

Martha didn't use her Explosive arrows since the dracanae was using their hard dragons to form a small buckler-like on their forearms.

Martha began to shoot the legs and toes of the dracanae in an attempt to slow them down.

Soon, her haste spell wore off, and Martha focused on running.

Even then, she was able to delay the rush of the dracanae slightly.

The ghouls would pick up and carry any fallen ghouls in the path they were running. This was part of the plan that they discussed, for Martha feared that this dracanae would devour the fallen ghouls and increase their strength as Lesser Dragons.

"Hurry!" She ordered as she glanced at the mini-map in her mind.

These were among the things that she somehow received after she returned. 

"Is this how Kyros is able to position our team accurately? He sees this strange map?" Martha quickly wondered as she watched and made preparations for the next part of the plan.

With Taunt, she drew the dracanae to chase her and Hems as they fled on the longest route leading back to the area where Hunter said their escape was being prepared.

She did this so that Hunter and Myas could retreat as they had moved closer to spring the trap of making Mardock appear.

In her map, she could see small blips and dots that she could identify as her allies. The group was performing as planned.

Despite having to kill any of the crippled dracanae they left to disperse the dark energy and weaken whatever nourishment the dracanae lesser dragons may acquire from them, the team was still moving ahead of Martha.

"It's up ahead!" Hems suddenly explained. He was tasked to find a weakened spot suitable to make another rockslide back when Dorothy bought them time.

"Good! It'll work!" Martha confirmed as her Foresight allowed her to sense that it was possible to enclose the path.

The group passed the area, and Hems began to shake the vial of fire rock and readied to throw it.

"Now!" Martha ordered, and Hems threw the vial.

FWIP!

The arrow flew and zoomed towards the fragile part of the ceiling.

BOOM!

The explosion occurred, and the rocks began to fall down.

The dracanae lesser dragons roared as they charged faster. These falling rocks wouldn't hurt them anyway.

But at that moment, Martha activated one of the skills that she saw listed in her True Darkness Time-Space Core.

[Gravity Field activated.]

Martha harnessed the energy to one arrow and shot.

FWIP!

The arrow struck the ground underneath the collapsing area, and gravity increased.

CRASH! CRASH!

The rocks and the sudden increase of gravity caused all five dracanae to stumble as they lost balance from the falling stones.
