After three hours of fighting on the wall, Theo realized the decrease in their number. Due to their wall advantage, humans managed to minimize their casualties while continuously raining the monsters with their skills.
Theo also had been fighting nonstop while maintaining his Magic Power usage, resulting in him leveling up several times.
He didn't use his Magic Bullet recklessly and waited for a minute before sending another one because he didn't want to exhaust his Magic Power so soon since the Magic Bullet required more and more Magic Power each usage if he used it continuously. It was the drawback of his Magic Bullet after all.
…
Suddenly, they heard someone's voice from the speaker that was installed inside the wall.
"The enemy number has significantly decreased, so we will start fighting them on the ground. It will be a hard fight due to the lack of stable footing, so please think carefully if you want to stay on top of the wall or the ground. Those on the walls are to aim a bit farther. Any friendly fire will not be forgiven."
When Theo heard this announcement, he smiled and looked down. It was true that there wouldn't be a stable footing because the ground had been covered with blood and corpses. In other words, they needed to fight against the monsters on top of the corpses, not the ground.
However, three soldiers suddenly leaped off the wall, heading straight to the corpses.
A wind formed beneath their feet and softened their fall.
The monsters noticed them, but they were too late. The three soldiers used their skill to create three giant tornados and blow all the corpses away. This way, they wouldn't need to fight on top of the corpses but red-colored mud.
Before they could kill the soldiers, the three soldiers had jumped to the sky and used their wind to return to the top of the wall.
"Ho?" Theo widened his eyes, fascinated by the strategy and considered the announcement seriously.
Although the people were still raining the monsters down with their skills, half of them had been moving to the stairs, trying to go to the ground.
After looking at his teammates' expressions, Theo shrugged and asked, "I don't think there's a need for a vote, right?"
The group smiled as they quickly made their way to the ground, waiting for the army to open the gate.
He could see more than two thousand people standing in front of the gate, excluding the one thousand soldiers.
"As soon as you come out, quickly search for a place to fight and don't chase them too far!"
Another instruction was announced and the gates started to open right after. Since the soldiers were in the very front, they set up the example and quickly killed all the monsters around the gate, securing the place for the people to come out of the base and spread around.
Theo and his group also left the base. Theo had been observing the movement of the monsters, so he knew where to go to kill high-level monsters.
Theo led his team to the position while other people were around them, fighting all the monsters that ran toward them.
Theo's team wasn't an exception. After running for a minute, a monster slipped past other humans and leaped toward them.
It was a humanoid monster with green skin, walking on two feet. It had long, sharp claws on its hands.
Those claws hit Sihan's shield as the latter appeared between them, trying to stop its advance.
Surprisingly, Sihan got pushed back several feet away, but he was still fine.
Feeling something different from this monster, Theo quickly took a look at the monster's information, finding it was a scary Hero Rank Monster.
Name: Humanoid Vagabond.
Level: 255-260
A humanoid monster with sharp claws and extraordinary agility.
"Oh, no. It's a Hero Rank Monster." Theo informed them out loud as he said, "I don't know if this is a normal one or a rare monster, but we need to be careful. Alea, Sihan, you two will handle it first to take its attention."
Alea acknowledged and tried to help Sihan, but the latter quickly mentioned. "This monster doesn't have powerful strength, but beware of its speed, Alea."
Alea nodded, raised her sword, and slashed downwards, trying to cut the enemy.
The monster was intelligent enough to match Alea's movement and raised its hand as the green skin became glistening before it stopped Alea's sword without a problem.
It then raised its other hand and waved its claws. Sihan used his shield to push him back.
The monster ultimately missed Alea, but it didn't want to stop there. It grabbed Sihan's shield and threw it away.
Sihan used all his strength to hold the shield, but even though strength wasn't its forte, the monster gradually overpowered him.
Phyrill and Laust appeared from both sides, trying to slice its neck.
"Die." Phyrill gritted his teeth before widening his eyes, seeing that the monster somehow caught his sword with its claws.
The same applied to Laust. His sword couldn't move when the monster caught it.
"The claw is so sturdy. The skin doesn't look like it can handle our weapon though." Phyrill observed the monster before leaping away.
Laust followed him right after as they planned to use a sneak attack to kill the monster if Alea couldn't deal with it quickly.
"It's fine." Alea smiled and emerged behind Sihan. After finding no one in the front, she didn't hold back anymore this time and waved her sword. "Inch Slash."
The monster didn't understand her action and quickly raised its claws to stop this invisible energy but to no avail. All the claws were cut before a huge sword mark appeared on its body, almost cutting him into two.
This Inch Slash had been reinforced by the Enchant Blade to the point it could kill the mammoth, so Alea was slightly surprised that a monster could withstand it.
Before anyone could react, Ellen already appeared behind the monster and placed her hand on the monster's slimy back. The sticky mucus on the surface was frozen and ice crystals formed on the monster's chest.
"Frost Nova." Ellen smiled and delivered the killing blow.
It wasn't over yet. Two monsters slipped past the people and leaped to Ellen with their mouths wide open.
"Ellen!" Alea called her name out loud before she found blue light pierced through their heads mid-air.
There was only one person who could do that. She turned around and found Theo shooting his Magic Bullet while grumbling. "Seriously… Can't you all just wait a bit to look at your surroundings? Don't just focus on one monster."
Ellen simply waved her hand and said with a smile. "Theo is always dependable. I'm going to be your fan now."
"Don't brush it off with that useless thing…"
