Chapter 37
As the Red Oak Priest fell, the monsters, freed from their brainwashing, began to rampage.
The creatures that had stood side by side just moments before began tearing into each other, and soon the scene descended into utter chaos.
‘We need to get out of here fast.’
Elatra’s blessing time was nearly up.
But my mana was far too low to push through the swarming horde of monsters.
I wanted to deploy stone pillars all around to clear a path, but just maintaining the golem armor was pushing my limits.
Then.
“Gah!”
The Red Orcs, having lost their chieftain, charged toward the Daejae.
“Don’t bother me!”
I needed to leave immediately, but they kept delaying me.
Finally.
Thud-.
Thud.
The mana couldn’t keep up with the regeneration of the golem armor.
Though gaping holes appeared everywhere, it continued hunting the Red Oaks. Yet the creatures trampled over their fallen comrades’ corpses, thrusting swords and axes into the Golem.
“Gah!”
Taking advantage of a momentary lapse in Dojae’s focus, a Red Oak stabbed him in the back with a sword.
But oh no!
A fallen Red Oak grabbed Dojae’s leg.
‘Damn…’
Doja staggered, losing his balance.
And just as the Red Oak’s crude sword lunged toward Dojae.
Thud!
Thud-!
An arrow flying from somewhere blows off Red Oak’s head.
And a woman’s voice echoes.
– I’m grateful you’ve broken free from the shackles of your mind.
Dojae looked around frantically.
