Warlock of War: My Ares System

Chapter 34 Raid: Toxic Slime Cavern (2)

"We will win!" The leader shouts after tearing through another few slimes.

"WE WILL WIN!" We all cry out collectively.

The tanks all shield bashed the wave of slimes, but some of them ended up flying over them, so us spearmen had to take them out.

And as we were taking them out, the swordsman and assassins were slowly chipping away at the numbers.

On the other hand, the mages and bowmen were having trouble as they weren't necessarily made for slimes due to the slime's thick coating around their cores.

Most slimes can completely negate magic attacks, and most of them can completely negate arrows… so then why were they brought?

Fewwwwwww

An arrow whistle passed me, and it was enhanced with an enchantment that sent a slime flying backward.

It saved the man's head next to me from being consumed by a toxic slime that would ultimately kill him.

BOOM

On the other hand, the mages were doing a fantastic job at blowing the slimes backward when the tanks were recovering from their shield bashes or were tanking for one of the attackers.

Most of the mages present are fire mages, so their explosions are coming in handy.

"EVERYONE FORWARD!" The leader shouted, and with his encouragement, everybody was filled with confidence as we took a step forward.

SHING

I sliced a slime's core straight in half, and a residual splash of its slime didn't do anything against my face.

Hmmmmm… I should save [Tangible Bloodlust]... I don't want to reveal all my cards.

"AHHHHH!"

All of a sudden, a tank in front of me was swarmed by at least ten toxic slimes.

His equipment and face began to melt, and even when the leader managed to rip off all the slimes from him, he died, falling flat on his face.

The momentum we had built up seemingly came crashing down upon seeing one of our comrades fall, and it only began to spiral down from here due to the leader's rash mistake.

He's strong and an excellent, considerate leader… but the considerateness will be the death of him and us.

There are times when you must learn that somebody is going to die, and stepping in to save him will only cause more harm than good.

"I guess that's why he's a four-star," I muttered before taking a wide stance and stabbing upwards.

My blade pierced a slime that jumped off the now dead man, but the wave of slimes behind continued their rampage.

With the leader leaving the front lines to help that one singular tank, the front lines had opened up, and now we were being swarmed from all directions.

"STAND YOUR GROUND!" The leader shouts, but I could tell the confidence that had just been built up towards him was slowly crumbling.

Fewwwwww

Another arrow whistled past me, saving me from being attacked by two slimes that jumped towards me.

I stabbed the remaining slime, killing it and granting me a few points of experience.

But, the front line was in shambles, so we all began to back up.

Most of the tanks were now dead, and the leader was basically the main tank now as he drew all the agro with one of his skills.

A red-circled appeared below him, and it angered the slimes as they all began to bubble and boil as if they were lava.

The ground below them began to erode more and more, but the leader was doing an impressive job as he was taking out tons of slimes at a time.

The original wave of 100 strong was down to a measly 15 weak.

"WE CAN DO THIS!" The leader shouted once again, and we all created a new formation that focused on protecting the backline as they kept the slimes from swarming us.

BOOM BOOM BOOM

A few fireballs sent the slimes in front of me flying back, and so I did a few quick stabs that pierced their jelly-like bodies.

Twelve left.

A pair of assassins beside me then flipped over me and stabbed their daggers into the slimes as if they were beasts sinking their teeth into their prey.

Ten left.

Their black aura was a bit disturbing, but I didn't have time to complain as a few swordsmen came from behind me, slicing down four more.

Six left.

But as the swordsmen backed up, it left me vulnerable as three slimes came from beside me.

Normally, somebody would've panicked, but I decided to place a bit of trust in the backline and use my spear to thrust myself upwards.

Fewwwwww

Three arrows whistled past me, blowing the slimes back, but three more came from behind them.

SHING

The leader had arrived and tore through the three slimes as if they were clouds.

Three left.

And just as I took a wide stance, a swordsman came from the left of me and tore through the remaining three.

"Good job on holding out," He complimented me before gazing over the raid team, which was in shambles.

"Dammit," I heard the leader mutter before calling everybody to him in order to have a small meeting.

The meeting was about how we still have a chance of winning, which actually convinced some people to continue the raid, which I wasn't going to complain about.

We may have lost our tanks, but that isn't worth leaving the dungeon for because if we leave, the leader will lose face, and his rating will probably drop… due to him being a "cowardly leader" or something like that.

"Okay, we'll set up camp near the trees, and we'll use them as a natural fortress in case another swarm appears like that," The leader says, and we all nod our heads in agreement.

As soon as we arrived at an open spot surrounded by trees, the porters took out all the supplies we needed, and most of the raid team split into groups.

Some were already friends, and some were just trying to make friends… but I could tell most of them were timid.

"Let's now weave the spider's web," I muttered before making my way over to a group sitting beside an already lit campfire.
