Chapter 51: Chapter 51: Barbaric Rush

[Barbaric Rush has received eight skill points.]

[The damage output and range of Barbaric Rush have increased from level 6 (430% of strength stat) (6 meters) to level 14 (870%) (14 meters).]

Eon continued to walk forward, only pausing when all three Deowolf Fire Fangs stood in his way, showing their razor-sharp teeth. Three lines of destructive fire raged toward Eon. Those flames were Flamethrowers, which could be extremely dangerous if Eon was hit. As Eon flew up to avoid the attacks, his entire surroundings darkened again.

Alpha's Challenge was used by one of the Deowolf Fire Fangs. Due to the Skill, Fire Field, the entire field was once again engulfed in flames. It wasn't as effective as the Alpha's Fire Field because it was only level 11, which meant it only reduced Ice, Fire, and Water elemental attacks by 11%.

Despite the fact that their crowd control and debuff were not particularly harmful, they managed to become such a nuisance to Eon that he prioritized eliminating the user of those skills first.

[Lethal Augmentation has been activated.]

[Icy Touch has been activated.]

Eon rushed forward to gain enough distance from the only monster he could see, then folded his wings to launch a barrage of devastating attacks.

[Barbaric Rush has been activated.]

When they saw him coming, all three Deowolf Fire Fangs activated their skills, Augmented Fangs, and lunged their heads using their skill, Blazing Gnaw— they were repeating the same technique the alpha used against Eon, but this time there were three of them.

However, Eon was learning.

Rather than going for the head, Eon slammed his fist into Deowolf Fire Fang's body, slamming it to the ground while using his right arm to block the incoming attack.

[Barbaric Rush has dealt 339.4 damage.]

[Lethal Augmentation has dealt 420 damage.]

[Icy Touch has dealt 428.98 damage.]

Because Barbaric Rush, like Lethal Augmentation, was not an Ice elemental attack, Fire Field had no effect on its damage.

[Blazing Gnaw has dealt 976 damage to your Ice Armor.]

[Augmented Fang has dealt 818 damage to your Ice Armor.]

Eon waved his right arm away from the frozen fangs that gripped it. The owner of the fangs, on the other hand, was already frozen solid. Eon's armor was crumbling, and the other two Deowolf Fire Fangs were on their way to sever his neck with their blazing mouths. The Alpha's challenge was no longer active, but the Fire Field was, indicating that the caster was still alive.

[Ice Armor has been activated.]

[Ice Armor has 1860 HP.]

[Lethal Augmentation has been activated.]

[Icy Touch has been activated.]

[Barbaric Rush has been activated.]

Before the two Deowolf Fire Fangs could grate Eon with their fangs, Eon vanished from where he stood, easily escaping their fangs. They only managed to bite air. The next thing the Deowolf Fire Fangs knew, Eon was on his way to one of the Deowolf Pyromancers, rushing at such a breakneck pace that none of them could catch up with him. 

When the Deowolf Pyromancer saw Eon approaching, it opened its mouth and activated its Flamethrower, unleashing a destructive line of fire in Eon's direction. Eon, on the other hand, kept his unstoppable charge going and covered his head with his arms, taking the Flamethrower head on.

[Flamethrower has dealt 1048 damage to your Ice Armor.]

Eon emerged from the prison of destructive fire, waving his wings and preparing to punch.

After seeing its opponent survive its most powerful attack, the Deowolf Pyromancer immediately devised a plan of escape. It leaped away from Eon's destination while becoming almost transparent—like a ghost—by activating its skill, Ghostly Leap. It was an escaping blink that allowed the user to jump away from danger; additionally, it reduced the first damage the user received by 25% after activation. The Deowolf Pyromancer leaped ten meters away. It should normally be enough to escape and reposition itself.

Eon's charge, on the other hand, did not stop and pursued his opponent to where it landed. The Deowolf Pyromancer, thinking it had escaped Eon's attack, turned around to find a surging fist on its way to its head. The Deowolf Pyromancer could only stare with wide eyes as its death approached with terrifying speed.

Eon punched the Deowolf Pyromancer in the middle of its head and slammed it to the ground, crushing it into pieces.

[Barbaric Rush has dealt 254.55 damage.]

The effect of Ghostly Leap reduced the damage of Barbaric Rush by 25%.

[Lethal Augmentation has dealt 420 damage.]

[Icy Touch has dealt 428.98 damage.]

Fire Field reduced Icy Touch's damage by 11%.

It happened so quickly that no one had time to react. Two Deowolves were crushed in the blink of an eye.

Eon turned to face the four remaining Deowolves, his gaze wandering around them. He didn't move for a few seconds, as if he was contemplating the best possible next strategy. He was watching from every angle, ignoring his victims' helpless stares.

All of them had already realized that it was only a matter of time. Eon would triumph, and that was the only possible outcome.

[Barbaric Rush has received two skill points.]

[The damage output and range of Barbaric Rush have increased from level 14 (870% of strength stat) (14 meters) to level 16 (980%) (16 meters).]

Knowing that this battle was now hopeless, one of the Deowolf Fire Fangs raised its head and howled while using its skill, Howling Call. Its piercing howl echoed throughout the vast forest, summoning all nearby tribes of the Diviar wolf evolution line. Then there was a response of howling in all directions, indicating that the call was answered.

A telepathic ability that can transmit information such as how many allies the enemy had killed, how strong the enemy was, and what species it belonged to. All of the information about Eon that the messenger understood was spread among them.

Eon, on the other hand, looked around, observing the scene of hundreds of monsters rushing toward him with his superior sense of smell. All of the scattered packs of Diviar evolution lines in the area gradually formed a massive circular formation around the area.

The call was answered by 100 Diviar wolves of level 10 and up, packed with ferocity and determined to avenge those killed members of their kind.

Eon had no idea Diviar wolves had such a system in their society; no one would know until they experienced it.

This scenery, on the other hand, did not even frighten Eon. He even took his time and watched how the massive formation of a large company of monsters formed. It was a beautiful scene for Eon, a scene of a magnificent army forming together as they rushed toward their common enemy.

A swarm of warriors attacking with unison and strategy was a sight to behold in the eyes of a future ruler of legions.

Eon's thoughts were interrupted when one of the remaining two Deowolf Pyromancers fired a Flamethrower at him, which he avoided by flying into the sky.

His surroundings darkened once more, with the exception of where one of the Deowolf Fire Fangs stood.

Even in the midst of the most helpless battle, the Deowolves remained steadfast and growled with ferocity. They intended to survive until reinforcements arrived, against a cold and calculated foe.

Eon revealed his claws by raising both of his hands. It was time for him to finish the battle, which would be swift but brutal.
