Young Master in the Apocalypse

[Mission objective: Stay alive for 7 days.]

[Mission objective: Kill Raz Gulag.]

[Mission objective: Eliminate at least half of the orc horde. (748/1000)]

[20 minutes left]

In the last 30 minutes, the group managed to kill almost 300 orcs, and now the last stretch of this virtual challenge has arrived.

Boris and Torri were fighting really hard, helped by both Barry and Kosta. The four of them tried their best to hold the line while sitting inside the back part of the tank, where hundreds of orc warriors have gathered.

Tratatatata! Tratatata!

Bamm! Baammm!

However, no other weapons could really shoot those orcs with the same precision and speed as Torri's high caliber sniper rifles. Not even a 7.62 assault rifle with piercing bullets was enough to shoot the orcs down with one shot.

To kill one of them, they have to spend at least half a dozen bullets, and that was assuming the orcs were hit around the same place. To keep the hundreds of orcs from entering the fortress, they had to resort to taking out all the weapons that had been staying inside the storage ring for a while.

Jessie aimed the cannon one more time to the orc soldiers, and right as the crowd came so close, she pulled the trigger. The cannonball swept over the nearby orcs and exploded just 50 meters in front of them, killing a dozen at the same time in a shower of heatwave.

The other four started to sigh in relief, however, Jessie's announcement shattered their hopes.

"That was our last cannonball!

[Mission objective: Eliminate at least half of the orc horde. (782/1000)]

300 plus orcs within 30 minutes, half were killed by the two dozen cannonballs prepared. Now that the cannonballs were no more, Jessie doubt they will reach 1000 in 20 minutes.

Without wasting time, Jessie ran and took Torri's crossbow from the pile of weapons, before she started aiming at the orcs' heads. With each shot, she tried to take down multiple orcs at the same time.

"Fire fire!!"

Despite their valiant efforts, unfortunately, their struggle was not enough to hold back hundreds of orcs, as with every one they killed, five more would start taking their place. It wasn't long until the horde finally reached the tank and started smashing their weapons onto the war machine.

Clank!! Clank!

Fortunately for the group, their hard work last night bore fruit, as none of the weapons could even scratch the tier 2 Warmachine nor push them to the side.

Some orcs even used their teammates to start climbing up the Warmachine, clearly trying to enter and aim for Viktor.

As more and more orcs started to try climbing up, one was close to reaching Viktor and hitting him from the back. Eva then turned to the shaking and crying Liza, while whispering in the most soothing voice she could manage.

"Will you go and help brother Viktor?"

She quickly nodded without much fuss. From her expression, it seems like she was so fed up inside the tank and could no longer stand the loud noises.

Eva turned to look at Jessie, and she helped to open the lever at the top. A girl with long black hair emerged from the tank and jumped down, only to arrive on the ground as a completely different person.

Her hair change to white and a powerful and chilling aura can be felt from her before she starts slashing all the orcs that pass through the tank with her crystal claws and blasting them apart with her ice magic.

It didn't take long for her to start ripping and slashing at the orcs who tried to pass into the tank apart.

Not far from her, a fighter clad in silver and gold armor was busy fighting a group of grey-skinned orcs. He looked dashing under the moonlight as the silver rays enhanced the glint of his axe and his shield. He slashed, chopped, and blocked all incoming attacks using his special ability.

[Metal Fusion]

[Viktor Romanov]

[Strength - 46 (76)]

[Agility - 86 (111)]

[Endurance - 50 (75)]

[Battle Power - 62(87)]

With his 25 battle power addition, Viktor could feel his movements become much faster and his slashes stronger. As a result, he was confidently charging towards 100 of the orcs' elites, the so-called berserkers who sport 75 battle power each.

However, unlike most common orcs, the elite berserkers are much stronger than their numbers suggested. They are much more intelligent, have better teamwork, and the worst of all, they are skilled fighters. If they were to be compared, perhaps they would be similar to an average platoon of human soldiers.

Swiiishhh!! Clank!! Clank!

Usually, normal orcs would just pull out their weapons whenever they saw their enemy and thus were easier to manipulate, the orc berserkers would actually wait to strike when he was close, or even bait and try to kill him from behind. One orc wielding an axe was almost able to behead him, only for Viktor to quickly duck, causing the orc to behead another soldier instead.

The crowded situation of the battlefield only made the ordeal much more difficult.

If Viktor didn't take the time to get used to [Axe Art - Expert Stage] skill, he would probably have been overwhelmed already.

Swiishhh.. Splattt! Clank! Clank!

10, 20… more and more berserkers fell under his axe, and the formations started to thin up. The wooden fortress had long been destroyed, seemingly even crushing some of the orcs who were caught unaware. A quick glance at the bracelet revealed that the kill count was ticking by the seconds.

However, just as things are looking up, Raz Gulag the 4 meters tall humongous Warchief have finally joined the fray.

Viktor's smile faltered for a moment, but then he started to goad the massive orc.

"Finally you join the fight! Come on!!"

Though he projected an aura of confidence, Viktor was actually very anxious. His scanner told him the Warchief has 150 battle power, which was almost twice his own. He had never had to fight something that was much stronger than him before.

He remembered his fight against the orc champion in his mission with the guild. That champion has 100 battle power, and that one was too hard for him already.

After watching the orc, Viktor decided to take it slow. He had never seen anything with that amount of battle power in action, so he needed to test the waters first. With that in mind, he jumped closer while still keeping his distance.

In response, the moment his feet landed on the ground, the massive Warchief raised both of his 2-meter sabers and swung at him.

Swiisshh!

For a few moments, Viktor was frozen in shock. It was such a powerful, quick blow, and the swing of each sword felt like a sports car have passed right in front of his nose. He was lucky that he decided to maintain his distance, for if not he would have sustained some heavy wounds.

It has 150 battle power, and it sure has the strength to back it up. From the slash, it was clear that Viktor and the orc both have similar speeds. So, if the orc has 110 agility, it would have almost 200 points in strength or endurance… This is crazy!

It was clear that the warchief was not something he could take on alone.

Swwiisshh!

Splllaatttt

Viktor dodged the next strikes, and he saw that the Warchief had accidentally killed 2 of the uruk berserkers. He smirked, an idea coming to mind. If he couldn't achieve the objective to kill the leader, he might as well try to get the other objectives.

[Mission objective: Eliminate at least half of the orc horde. (815/1000)]

[13 minutes left]

Then, he started waving his weapon and said.

"Yo, chief or whatever! Get your fatass up here and catch me!"

Grooooowl!

Swish! Splat!

Viktor kept on dodging and dodging, using his agility to walk in a zig-zag pattern around the berserkers, baiting the chief to kill the soldiers for him.

[10 minutes left - (856/1000)]

Just 150 more!,

From the safety of the machine, Jessie saw what Viktor was doing, and she asked Kosta and Barry to push and move the tank a little so even more orcs would enter, and more of them would die faster.

Grawwwlll grawwllll

Swiishh! Splaatt!!

[7 minutes left - (899/1000)]

Viktor kept on circling around the boss, barely dodging its attacks while letting the gigantic warchie unleash its attacks and kill even more of its own men.

"Heh, even the orc berserkers were smarter than this. Fortunately for us the boss only has bigger muscles, not a bigger brain, huh?" He muttered under his breath.

[5 minutes left - (932/1000)]

Now that 5 minutes was left on the clock, Viktor decides to unleash his 5 minutes of divine skill [ All might]
