Chapter 97: Vanishing 2

Jay noticed the archer statue was creating another arrow, though this was normal sized one again.

“Hmm.. I guess for such a powerful spell it must need a cooldown.”

Jay certainly didn't want to get hit by a tree-trunk sized arrow, so he made a mental note to save his boots for that.

Finally, he was now close enough to analyse the archer statue.

“What the hell? I can’t see any of its skills? …And it’s level one?” Jay scoffed, “I don’t believe that for a second...” he pursed his lips, frustrated.

Something weird was definitely going on, and while there was an element of danger, Jay now believed he could still win.

His skeletons wasted no time in engaging their targets, and Jay wasted no time either as he jumped right into the battle.

He pounced on the statues with the cold and diligent focus of a veteran assassin; keeping one eye on the archer as he punished the spearmen with his hammer.

The middle spearmen seemed to be a little more fearsome this time as it seemed to have better reflexes, and Jay squinted at it in suspicion, analysing it.

“It’s level four.” he realised before commanding his skeletons.

“Finish the level three ones first, boys!”

*VRRR~* another arrow hummed towards Jay, but he stepped into the darkness just in time. The arrow dematerialised right before him, threatening to bore right into his chest; Jay unconsciously exhaled seeing it.

Jay was fighting with one foot in the light and one foot in the darkness, allowing him to easily evade the arrows now.

The archer statue had no expression as its face was stone, but Jay was sure that it would be grinding its teeth with a vein bursting in its forehead if it could.

This only encouraged Jay to hammer faster, dodging spear thrusts and smashing stone helmets.

[35 Exp][35 Exp]

With the two level three spearmen dead, the level final one had no hope against four skeletons and Jay.

It frantically thrusted and did sweeping spear attacks, along with a few different defensive twirls that Jay hadn’t seen before, but it was all for nothing.

[100 Exp]

Not only was the archer getting more threatening, but the spearmen statues were getting tougher.

Jay looked across the light circle to find that two of the statues were level four while the middle one was much bigger, its armour thicker and heavier - it was level ten.

“Damn, what, level ten? That’s way too high..” Jay furrowed his brows in anger.

“How am I supposed to get past it?”

The archer statue was about to release another red arrow; Jay stepped into the light to avoid it, and an idea suddenly popped into his head.

“Surely it’s not that simple…” he began to smile.

Jay went back into the darkness and waited for the archer statue to release another red arrow, then he proceeded to dash across the last circle of light.

This time, something was different - The level 10 spearman statue had a double-ended spear and stepped out of the darkness to meet Jay in the middle of the light circle.

“Well, this just keeps getting better” Jay sarcastically said as he shook his head.

“I’ll distract the level 10, you guys work on the level four’s!” Jay yelled orders to his skeletons.

Jay analysed the level 10 statue before him.

“100% damage reflection… how the hell am I supposed to kill you?” Jay thought, taking a step back to dodge a spear slash.

“It’s faster too, much faster… dammit.”

Jay realised he had to be extra careful now, but suddenly he heard the familiar sound of danger coming from the archer statue.

*THROOSH~*

Jay only had one option - to hide behind this large spearman statue, and he hoped this would be the answer.

So far, none of the arrows had hit any statues as they had either missed or were intangible, so he wasn't sure if they could even hit the stone soldiers.

This was a risk, but Jay was confident he could still escape if things went south.

*VRRRrr~~ BOOM!~*

The golden arrow exploded on the back of the bulky statue, causing it to stagger for a moment while chips of rocks flung off and whizzed away at high speeds.

The level 10 statue was not seemingly defenceless as it kneeled down.

This was Jay’s opportunity, he smashed down on the head of the statue with his hammer.

[Critical hit][12]

Jay struck again with his hammer, trying to do the most damage possible; the statue was kneeling on one knee and couldn’t see Jay, but suddenly it’s double ended spear came up above its head and perfectly blocked Jay’s attack.

The momentum caused the spear to twirl around and the other end struck back at Jay.

[-6]

“Argh!” Jay gritted his teeth, the spear pierced him right in the leg.

Jay took a few steps back, almost falling over as his upper leg muscle, the tensor fasciae latae, was almost completely severed.

It quickly healed up as his health bar dropped by six, his leg movement restored.

“Dangerous.” thought Jay, squinting at the double-ended spear.

The full counter skill was nothing to mess around with.

The statue stepped forward again, thrusting its spear. Jay narrowly evaded, but the statue used its double strike.

The resulting second pierce of the spear came much too quickly for Jay to dodge.

“Shi~” Jay braced himself for the pain and raised his shield.

*BROONGGGggg~* The force of the hit caused the shield to vibrate, and Jay was sent flying five meters backwards. He was turned around, and forced to place his hand on the ground to stop himself from falling over.

[-3]

The statue gave him no rest or respite; clearly it was a seasoned fighter, still retaining its combat sense from its last life as if it was now a core part of its being.

Jay only took three damage, but that was after the 80% damage reduction from his shield; it would have done 15 damage otherwise.

Bits of bone had chipped off deathwalkers sentry now, and Jay could tell it may not survive the next hit.

The level 10 statue was rushing over to Jay while he was still recovering from the last spear hit, it was not letting any opportunity escape.

“Dammit” Jay gritted his teeth, preparing for the next hit; about to get pierced by the double-ended spear once again.

*VRrrr~* a golden arrow came flying, and thankfully, Jay was still behind the level 10 statue.

A mischievous grin appeared on Jay’s face as he looked up, realising the statue was about to get struck again - and right before he would be hit; he was about to escape the attack.

*BOOM!~*

The level 10 statue went down to one knee again, pausing in its tracks, it didn't get a hit on Jay.

Jay pounced up like a little hungry goblin, ceasing the opportunity and smashing his hammer at the level 10 statue again.

[Critical Hit][12]

A new crack began to form on the stone soldiers helmet now - but it was nothing compared to the gashes across its back.

Jay smirked seeing the damage, and quickly took a step back. He wasn’t going to let the statue counter him again.
