The Golem Mage

Chapter 338: Almost... 2 & 3.

”Don’t even think about resting!, The Matriarch Hyena isn’t dead yet!”

Agnes shouted at Arthur, who was about to slack off after Brandon’s combo move.

Agnes was certain that the Matriarch Hyena was still alive; otherwise, the organized pack would have already fallen apart and lost their coordination, resembling a legion of soldiers without a general’s command.

Alec managed to finally dispatch the three Hyenas that had kept him busy.

As he jogged towards Brandon to provide support, he had been the only one attacking with his sword Qi, that was powered by his sword intent.

This gave his attacks a lethal edge and his strength allowed him to gain the upper hand in combat against the demonic beast.

On the other hand, the rest of the group had to rely on their mana to boost their attacks, as they had not yet comprehended any intent yet.

And despite their tired bodies, they continued to move and evade, fully aware that even a slight mistake could make them easy prey for the hyenas.

As the smoke from the explosion cleared, Alec and Brandon stood their ground, their eyes fixed on the location of the explosion, waiting to see if the Matriarch Hyena would emerge heavily injured or only lightly injured from the attack.

But before the hyena appeared, they were startled by loud laughter, followed by two sets of claws swiping towards them.

Without wasting a moment, they both instinctively slashed their weapons reinforce with Qi to counter the claw swipes.

However, the force behind these attacks was so powerful that it sent them both flying into the air.

Alec quickly summoned his Red Salamander tattoos in the air, enveloping himself in the protective spirit equipment armor that deflected the residual attacks of the claws, creating a series of clanging sounds till he landed on the ground.

Beside him, instead of a soft landing, Alec heard a thud and saw Brandon heavily injured, covered in cuts that resembled the work of different beasts’ claws.

While Alec had the protection of his Salamander armor, Brandon only wore a Tier 2 armor they had managed to acquire from the War God’s Armoury counter.

It was gotten ever since their initial visit to the Abyss, where Igor had generously covered the expenses for their armor and necessary equipment, but the armour had proved not sufficient to withstand the Matriarch Hyena’s attacks.

Although Brandon had suffered cuts in various places, none of them proved fatal.

As His strategic defense with is saber had effectively thwarted the claws’ light attempts to strike any critical areas, resulting in a multitude of wounds across his body.

”Ouch! Shit!” Brandon groaned in pain.
