Chapter 138: Raiding the Mountain Monkey's Lair part 9
The Mountain Gorilla was no longer able to continue hiding in the dark the moment everyone started throwing Luminescent Stones everywhere.
Standing in front of everyone is a ten feet tall Gorilla that's covered by hardened rocks in some parts of its body and a mossy substance. Its body is not huge compared to the Earth Gorilla's, which explains why it was able to move fast and nimble in the dark.
However, unlike other Mountain Gorillas, the one in front of them has dark-colored hair that covers its skin, clearly because of its Gift.
"We would have only seen its silhouette if we had let it continue moving in the darkness," Friedrich said in a remark.
Not wanting its presence to be revealed, the Mountain Gorilla started trying to destroy the Luminescent Stones. But it soon realized its effort is useless because there are just too many of them, and moreover, every time it destroys one, its enemies simply threw more.
With a loud bellow, the Mountain Gorilla went for a frontal assault.
Bang!
A loud sound echoes as the Mountain Gorilla smashed its body into the shield of the Guardians.
"This is what I was talking about!"
The Guardians were more than prepared to take on a frontal assault from the Mountain Gorilla, so they barely took a step back after receiving its body smash.
"Marksmen! Fire!"
Whoosh!
A barrage of arrows rains toward the Mountain Gorilla.
In an attempt to block the arrows, the Mountain Gorilla waves its hand mid-air, parrying most of the arrows while letting some hit its non-vital parts.
"I told you so," Kayn muttered. It was exactly like what he had previously said; barely any strategies would work on the Mountain Gorilla.
"Mages, shoot it with fireballs!" Kayn ordered.
Whoosh!
Jude, Kimberly, and Cyril each fired a fireball at the currently preoccupied Mountain Gorilla.
Boom!
A series of explosions sounded as the Mountain Gorilla received a direct attack. As a result to it, a few of its rock armor fall out from its body.
The moment the rock armor fell from its body, a patchless skin was revealed.
Kayn is already well-versed in dealing with Mountain Gorillas, so he advises, "Focus your attack on its armor!"
"Understood!" Everyone replied.
Whoosh!
As the Mountain Gorilla stands its ground, dozens of attacks are aimed at its rock armor, relentlessly assaulting the beast.
This causes the Mountain Gorilla to bellow loudly in pain.
"It's effective! Continue!" Gilbert felt delighted.
All of a sudden…
Three cleaving claws similar to those of a sword wave travel through the formation of the Guardians.
Whoosh!
Many of the Guardians were instantly flung to the side as a result of it.
Immediately, the barrage stopped in fear that they will hit their comrades.
Taking advantage of that result, the Mountain Gorilla smashed its body once again directly through the open pathway.
Boom!
In the end, the Knights were sent flying away, hitting some of the Marksmen in the process.
As simple as that, half of the formation was broken by the Moutain Gorilla.
However, this was what Kayn planned on doing.
Although he didn't expect a , he has been looking for an opportunity to surround the Mountain Gorilla on all sides.
"Surround it!" Kayn ordered.
Without wasting any time, Roshan and Carter came to the front and started tanking the Mountain Gorilla.
Boom!
The Mountain Gorilla smashed its hands at Roshan's shield.
Bang!
Roshan easily held his place after receiving the full force of the attack.
Carter attacked the Mountain Gorilla to get its aggro away from Roshan.
Boom!
This time, Carter received the attack.
Bang!
But just like Roshan, he was able to easily handle the attack.
Another to the rear from Roshan instantly made the Mountain Gorilla turn its body around once more.
In both , Roshan and Carter specifically targeted the areas with the rock armor on them in order to weaken it or completely remove it.
Between those two attacks, the Knights and Marksmen continued launching their attacks, this includes Kayn, Friedrich, and Charles.
Gilbert, Natasha, and Jackson also occasionally sent an attack from different angles.
As time continues to pass, the rock armor was slowly being chipped out completely from the body of the Mountain Gorilla. At the same time, it became more and more aggressive.
Whoosh!
The entire Goblin formation was finally broken off.
This time, the fight is up to Kayn and the others.
Clang!
Sword wave!
Sword Dance!
Sword wave!
Sword wave!
Sword wave!
Kayn, Friedrich, and Charles combined their skills together to form a very huge and powerful sword wave attack.
Boom!
The Mountain Gorilla directly received the attack, creating a huge horizontal mark on its chest where blood oozed out.
Bang!
Boom!
Splat!
After some time, all rock armor around the Mountain Gorilla was finally removed.
Contrary to what everyone was expecting though, the Mountain Gorilla suddenly busted out in rage.
AHHH!
The Mountain Gorilla issued a loud human-like cry as its body turned red.
This marks that the Mountain Gorilla is close to dying.
Unlike the last time, the released by the Mountain Gorilla was even bigger and more powerful.
Boom!
"Where the heck is Natas!" Kayn can't help shouting inwardly.
This was the exact reason why Kayn never believed even the slightest bit that they can defeat the Mountain Gorilla.
They might have been able to fight the Mountain Gorilla equally when it was still in its natural and original state. But at this point in time, it has become impossible to defeat the Mountain Gorilla. With the latter in full rage, it has caused both its defense and attack to increase significantly to the point that they have to constantly dodge its attack. Even Roshan and Carter could barely block one of its attacks.
As if hearing Kayn summon, Natas finally revealed himself.
"I've found it!" Natas exclaimed while pointing in a specific direction. "The Mountain Heart Flower is at the center of the cave!"
Landing beside Natas, Kayn whispers. "In that case, why did it take you so long to find it?"
"I thought that it would be somewhere else. So, I left the center and started to look at the areas that are hidden and hard to find,"
Knowing about that, Kayn truly can't blame Natas anymore. Even if he was in the shoes of the latter, he would also do the same thing. After all, no one would put a valuable object right at the very center of the map where not only is it open, but it could easily be found as well.
"Everyone, let's start kiting it to the center of the cave!" Kayn exclaimed. He looks at Natas and added. "Lead the way!"
Immediately, Kayn started directing everyone to the center of the cave. No one understood the reason why, and he also can't be bothered to explain the reason. Otherwise, he won't be able to give a satisfying answer as to how exactly he knows the location of the Mountain Heart Flower.
Boom!
A series of explosions sounded as they continued to run.
Looking back, they could see the Mountain Gorilla blasting each and every patch of stalagmites that blocks its way.
"Why did I think that we can even defeat that?" Gilbert started losing hope of defeating the Mountain Gorilla.
"That was never our goal in the first place," Kayn muttered.
"We'll have to find the Mountain Heart Flower as fast as possible. Or else, we would have to leave this place without it," Friedrich reminded everyone that they will leave as soon as things become worst for them.
"Gnarlak, start evacuating your men to safety. In that way, we won't have to worry about your men anymore," Kayn orders. He already witnessed the sort of character Gnarlak is. In his opinion, the latter won't do something to betray them.
"Are you sure?" Gnarlak starts hesitating. Deep inside of him, he wants to continue fighting so that his allies won't die. He doesn't even care if some of his men would have to be sacrificed for it.
"Just go!"
"But…"
"The more you hesitate, the less likely you and your men would be able to get to safety,"
"But how about all of you?"
"Change of plans,"
"What's the new plan? Maybe we can help!"
"The new plan doesn't involve any of you. So, just go and leave!"
"I…"
"Go!" Friedrich exclaimed.
"You and the rest of your men are nothing more than liabilities right now. If you stay, we would have to constantly protect all of you,"
"That…" Gnarlak finally realized. "Just be safe, all of you!"
With that being said, Gnarlak immediately led his men to the exit of the third floor.
As soon as Gnarlak and his men disappeared, the burden on their shoulders lightened a bit. They could finally focus on running away and dodging the attacks of the Mountain Gorilla.
"Do you have a clue to where the Mountain Heart Flower is?" Friedrich can't help asking after he noticed Kayn moving in a certain direction.
"Not sure. But if there's any place anyone of us would suspect first, it would be at the very center of this cave,"
"Who would even do something as stupid and ignorant as that?!" Gilbert instantly rejected Kayn's thoughts.
"Just be silent and follow me," Kayn can't be bothered arguing with Gilbert.
The disappearance of Gnarlak and his men made it very easy to kite the Mountain Gorilla. Right now, they could even pause for a bit to launch a few attacks before continuing to run away.
"Maybe if we repeat this over and over again, we will be able to defeat the Mountain Gorilla," Gilbert expressed his thoughts.
"Stop spouting nonsense," Jude rebutted. All that they are doing is just buying time to find the Mountain Heart Flower.
"What's that over there?!" Chastine pointed at a glittering object not far from them.
"What the heck!" Gilbert was instantly rendered in disbelief.
"Next time, just trust Kayn," Charles patted Gilbert's shoulder.
"Let's move, quick!"
As soon as they reached the glistering object, Kayn didn't waste a single second as he grabbed the Mountain Heart Flower and stored it inside his Storage Ring.
"It's time to get out of this place!" Kayn right away ordered everyone to escape.
Friedrich's face looked worried. "Hopefully Gnarlak and the others didn't stop to wait for us,"
Chastine shook her head in denial. "I doubt that. With the look on Gnarlak's face earlier, he would definitely wait for us at the exit,"
"Until now, I still can't believe that we were able to make those Goblins our allies," Friedrich expresses amazement as he glimpses at Kayn.
"Just trust Kayn," Charles interrupted.
Friedrich chuckles. "I am starting to,"
In the next moment, everyone changed their direction toward the exit of the third floor.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
