Just as his friend was about to use his claws to deal the spider its death blow, an arrow from an unidentified source struck him in the gills, and at that instant, he turned into a beam of light and vanished.

''Watch out!!! The enemy team has found us… '' He shouted a warning to his friends as soon as possible and used a defense-type skill.

''Water Shell. ''

He was surrounded by a jet stream of water that quickly formed an oval shield.

As he tried to figure out where the arrow came from, the Fishman turned around and called out to his friends.

''Due to the dry weather, my water shield is very thin. Can probably only withstand one arrow attack. Find the enemy team quic...'''

*BANG*

Before the Fishman could finish, the spider slammed into his water shield with a powerful blow. The Fishmen team was all focused on finding the opposing team and were unable to realize that the spider's stunned effect had already worn off and that it was currently on the rampage.

''Gaaghg.''

The Fishman briefly hovered in the air before crashing to the ground a short distance away. The water shield had completely shattered and covered the sand, turning it into mud.

''Beghh, bough, hurry and wash me, I can't breathe. '' He called out for assistance in an attempt to get the mud out of his gills, but nobody responded except for the spider.

*Crack*

The spider popped open its enormous, obscene mouth and bite the Fishman's crab-like head with a walnut-like crack.

''Damn you, run. First, let's find somewhere to take cover. '' The fan-wielding Fishman shouted and made an effort to run away. Two of his teammates had already died within a short period of time, and an enraged spider was now chasing them.

"I can't run fast enough. My scales have all dried up and are now covered in mud. I also don't have enough mana to use skills. Please help. '' The spider was rapidly approaching him when the other Fishman turned to look behind him, at which point he began to scream for help.





However, it was obviously too late, as usual. The spider caught the Fishman, who couldn't run fast because of his condition and devoured him as well.

There were only two Fishmen left, and they weren't looking good either.

''Fuck this… I'll immediately commit suicide if I ever find myself in a region that is dry and covered in sand again. It's not worth going through all that pain. ''

"You're right, " The other Fishman nodded in agreement after hearing what the fan-wielding Fishman said and placed his hand on his head.

''Water bullet. ''

His dead body then hit the ground and vanished into the lights.

''Wh… This idiot… I was just saying… I wasn't even serious…. IDIOT ''

The last Fishman standing yelled angrily as he turned to face the spider chasing after him. Even though the region greatly disadvantaged them, they shouldn't have died out so quickly. He was unable to accept this. His own race was the ruler of all the seas in the world he came from, and he couldn't bear losing so easily and mockingly.

''You can't even fight us face to face, cowards. Take a look at how I'm going to kill this spider. Afterward, it will be your turn. ''

Holding the fan in his hand, he bravely went up against the spider, shouting at the enemy team in an effort to make them hear his voice. Although he wasn't sure if the enemy heard him, he had enough time to realize that an arrow had been shot through his neck and killed him.



[Lv.8 Fishman (F-Rank) has been killed.]

[Your team gained 8 points.]

[You gained 80 experiences.]

Raydon rose slowly from his sitting position and placed the crossbow in his dimensional storage. He said while cleaning himself with his hand. ''That was fun haha. ''

Raydon found the entire situation to be amusing as the Fishmen struggled mightily to score one more point for the team despite all odds.

''I could only kill three of them to gain experience points, but at least their items are still there. ''

Raydon hastened to the location of the dead Fishmen. Pulling his shortsword out of his dimensional storage, he muttered and cast a glance at the spider that was still hovering nearby.

''It won't make up for the experience points I've lost, but at least your death will lessen my resentment. ''

He then started to run in the direction of the spider. The spider looked exhausted but stayed in the fight when it saw Raydon approaching. The monster immediately began to spit out sticky, web-like saliva.

Raydon deftly evaded the incoming web attacks and came right in front of the spider, thanks to his ultra-super-powered rolling technique.

When the spider realized Raydon had dodged all of its attacks and was now directly in front of it, it screamed in rage and stabbed Raydon with its two massive metallic teeth.

*Screeaacchh*

''Reflect.''

Raydon used his skill to deflect the spider's attack with his hand. Due to the skill's ability to reflect 5% of damage, the monster briefly lost balance. Seizing the moment, Raydon stabbed his short sword into the spider's abdomen, easily splitting it since the abdomen was softer than the rest of its body.

The spider screamed in agony and started to quiver. With the greenish liquid flowing from its stomach, it turned around and began to flee at breakneck speed, but it was too late. Raydon raised his hand once more.

''Hook. ''

The hook became entangled in the spider's side legs, causing it to fall over. Quickly approaching the spider that had lost its balance and fallen on its side, he drew the great sword from his dimensional storage and stabbed it into the spider's head with all his strength.

[Lv.1 Dirt Spider(F-Rank) has been killed.]

[Your team gained 1 point.]

[You gained 10 experiences.]

Raydon removed the great sword from the spider's head after hearing the system message. He cleaned the greenish blood off the sword by rubbing it against the spider's hairy abdomen before putting it back in his dimensional storage.

''It'll be pretty gross disassembling this thing, but... Sigh, I can't let any loot go to waste. ''
