Chapter 1403 Wyvern Hunt P2
The results of Jake's unwavering dedication and effort were now evident as he flourished as a formidable Ranker.
His water-element spells were tailored for exceptional defensive capabilities, benefiting both himself and his teammates in battles. The profound transformation in Jake's journey as a Ranker showcased the power of determination and resilience in the face of adversity.
The wyvern unleashed its potent fire-element breath attack, colliding with the 10-foot wall barrier composed of dense water-element mana. In an explosive clash, clouds of mist and vapor billowed into the air. The sheer force of the beast's elemental powers was staggering, swiftly evaporating Jake's defensive spell formation, forcing him to retreat a few steps.
"This fucking beast!" Jake exclaimed in frustration, channeling more mana to reinforce his spell. He couldn't help but curse the Edinburgh kingdom for not investing in taming their own wyvern.
The formidable creature alone was enough to keep all the White Raven members preoccupied. Even the Rankers from Layos hesitated to intervene between the wyvern's attacks and Eren's team, fearing the risk of friendly fire from their own beast. It was a wise decision on their part, as the wyvern lacked the finesse to distinguish friends from foes on the chaotic battlefield.
"Ron! Dino!"
Eren urgently called out to the two Expert Rankers seeking protection behind Jake's spell. Their role was clear, and they swiftly moved to support Jake.
As berserkers, they were fierce fighters, but they also possessed capable mid-range defensive spells. Erecting walls of iron and copper from the ground, they strengthened Jake's defensive formation. For this particular attack, these metal walls proved sturdier than Jake's water-element spell, while Jake's spell provided crucial support, preventing the walls from succumbing to the wyvern's searing heat.
The draconic fire was not to be underestimated; it could have melted Ron and Dino's metal walls within moments if not for the cooling effect of Jake's water-element spell.
Though the clash between the wyvern's elemental attack and Eren's team lasted only 10 seconds, for the Rankers facing the onslaught, it felt like they had been trapped in a hellish furnace for hours, surrounded by fire from every angle. The intensity of the battle tested their mettle, and they knew the real trial was yet to come.
Eren knew that the wyvern would take some time to cool off right after it had finished its breath attack. He wanted to encash on that small window of opportunity and that's why he had asked Jake to tank the wyvern's attack instead of scattering his team.
So when the wyvern finished attacking, Eren disappeared from his position. His teammates knew what he was about to do so they supported him by releasing their own torrent of spells.
Renita, with her crossbow and mana gun in hand, positioned herself to cover Jake and aimed at the wyvern with deadly precision. Each weapon offered unique advantages: the crossbow allowed her to infuse more wind-element mana into each attack, but it required a longer reload time, while the mana gun provided a continuous barrage of mana bullets, ensuring no lag in her assault. However, they were practically harmless to the beast unless Renita only targeted the beast's weak spots.
By skillfully employing both weapons simultaneously, Renita effectively mitigated the disadvantages of her Ranger Class. Her recent promotion to Expert Rank, combined with a solid stage mana core, elevated the power of her attacks to a whole new level. Additionally, her Way of the Elements had undergone significant improvement, granting her enhanced freedom and control over her long-range strikes.
As Renita unleashed her assault, the wyvern roared in agony as a volley of attacks found their mark on its massive body. The beast had nowhere to hide, as Renita's attacks could change directions mid-flight, precisely targeting its vulnerable spots.
Meanwhile, seizing the opportunity, Ron and Dino charged at the elves from Layos who were positioned just beyond the wyvern's range. The enemy Ranger class Rankers were undoubtedly trying to cover for the wyvern's weakness with their long-range attacks. Undeterred, Ron and Dino engaged the enemy head-on, fully aware of the threat they posed.𝔫𝑜𝑣𝔢𝒍𝔲𝐒𝒃.𝗰𝔬𝗆
Ron and Dino, the dual berserkers, had already ingested their berserker potions, and their bodies were coated in metal-like suits of their respective elements, providing comprehensive protection and enhancing the impact of their physical attacks. As they struck the ground, the earth trembled beneath their powerful blows, disrupting the enemy flank.
However, their impressive display of power was overshadowed by Ramy Richards, a Ranker from Eren's team who had been patiently waiting behind Jake's Tank-specific spell. As soon as the wyvern exposed its weakness, Ramy seized the opportunity to launch a daring offensive. Armed with his Knight-class spells and sound-element attacks, he overwhelmed his enemies with both mind and body.
Recently attaining Expert Rank, Ramy had fully embraced his status as a C-Ranker. His sound-element spells were multifaceted, inflicting physical debuffs, confusion, illusions, and even disrupting his opponents' mana circuits. The profound mastery of his Way of the Sound granted him access to various Elemental Aspects, allowing him to add unpredictability to his elemental spells.
"Hahahaha. Weave aaw you looking at? Bozo!"
Yet, the true headache for Ramy's enemies lay in his foulmouthed speech, which he purposely exaggerated with a lisp. He skillfully used his taunting rhetoric to enrage opponents, breathing new life into each battle while also relishing the joy of combat. Ramy truly enjoyed the fights, using them as opportunities to learn from his mistakes and observe his adversaries.
In a stunning display of prowess, Ramy dispatched three enemies within a mere 15 seconds, fearlessly charging deeper into the enemy cohort. Fully embracing his role as a distraction, he drew the enemy's attention upon himself, creating openings for his allies to exploit.
Eren's enemies were vigilant, especially when it came to Grimdawn. The moment he disappeared from their sight, they knew trouble was on the horizon.
"Quick! Protect the wyvern. Grimdawn is going to..."
The enemy squad captain barely had time to give orders to shield their precious mana beast. But it seemed that he had miscalculated. The butcher wasn't interested in facing the wyvern at all.
Eren had different plans; he was after the enemy squad captain himself.
