I'm The supreme Fairy King

Chapter 228: Things Are Getting Bad!



Previously they were fighting a desperate battle, but now they had all the pressure erased off their shoulders.

'It seemed they feared that lizard,' Jim couldn't help but mutter while watching the sudden change in their attitude.

'Who won't be terrified by such a monster?' the old man said, 'even the masters back at the academy would face a hard time dealing with it. But there is great news here.'

'Tell me then.'

'Hahaha, you won't believe it but this lizard is the ruler of this pit,' the old man said and didn't explain further.

'Wait a second... Does this mean...?'

'Yeah,' the old man cheerfully said, 'like this all the remaining monsters here would be slain easily on Hector's team hands and all the treasures buried here will belong to him and you.'

'Damn!' Jim cursed out of his happiness, 'this... sounds pretty big.'

'It's enormous actually,' the old man laughed, 'you can't imagine how many disciples or even masters falling here on her hands. I bet the bottom of this pit is covered in layers upon layers of rings, gears, and treasures. Not to mention the priceless ores.'

'I hit the jackpot,' Jim laughed while turning to watch the expression over Hector and his men, 'they knew that, right?'

'Yeah, and that's why they are acting in such a way.'

Jim only smiled and didn't mention anything to Hector at this point. He knew these gains would be so large to keep for one man or one crew. 'I'll get my hands over a big piece of that cake,' he said and even he felt more energetic and started to count impatiently the seconds remaining for that lizard to fall.

However, that lizard proved to be harder to kill than he initially thought.

"Roar!"

After a long half an hour of constant fight, Hector and his team managed to slain three monsters. As for the darkness descending from above it had to halt under the persistent attack from the higher team.

Yet at this point Jim didn't feel anything related to the lizard, no weakness, no change at all in the energy he was absorbing.

Only the lizard kept twitching and doing its all to break free, and it finally had to give up this approach and adopt another.

"What's happening?" one of the disciples around asked.

"It's... bad," Hector couldn't help but mutter in deep shock, "it's not good... it's summoning the other monsters."

He turned to glance at Jim who was now shining like a vibrant star. "We need to retreat," Hector said.contemporary romance

"What about the dark hunter above?" one of the disciples asked.

"Just take us out," Jim said in determination, "You said they are terribly frightened of the light."

He motioned his head to his entire body. For Hector and others Jim was now showered in bright golden light and his features couldn't be seen.

"It's... a big risk to shoulder alone," Hector turned around.

"Just send me up there," Jim was stubborn, "I'll act as a decoy, leading all the monsters to levels higher than yours."

"You can't think of fighting all of them on your own, aren't you?" one disciple asked in doubt.

"You will come from the bottom and ambush them," Jim said, "this is the best way. I won't let that damned lizard off!"

"I planned to kill the dark hunters first," Hector was deep in his own thoughts, "but tweaking and slightly changing the plan isn't bad. Alright, we'll come with you."

"No," Jim firmly said, "you'll only be in the way."

"You need someone to defend you," Hector was more stubborn.

"Do you think the small group of us will be able to face them?" Jim asked, "I'll use someone else."

"Who?"

"Them," he motioned with his eyes but they couldn't see anything at all from his face. "The hunters," he had to say.

"How?"

"Boss, he is overestimating himself," one disciple said, "let's be with him. It's much safer this way."

"How?" Hector didn't answer his man as he asked again.

"Well..." Jim was thinking about his on the moment plan, "I'll go beyond the pit and draw the hunters to clash with monsters."

"But monsters won't leave the pit no matter what," Hector shook his head, "we'll come with you... it's final."

He stressed on his last words while Jim could only helplessly sigh. He wasn't that loyal to him, but he wanted to see what a dark hunter would give him.

If they were such priceless monsters then he wouldn't hesitate to store all of their bodies inside his rings and lie and say they just ran away.

Yes it was risky but he was willing to do it.

'It's still safer,' the old man said.

'I wanted those dark hunters for myself.'

'Next time perhaps,' the old man said, 'better than having no next time at all, right?'

'Sigh,' Jim shook his head before glancing at Hector who was deep in thought at this moment while the jelly was climbing slowly to the higher levels. "How do you plan to stop them with only ten people?"

"Who said I'll bring only ten?" Hector's answer made Jim realize he mistook the intention of Hector.

"Yes, this way we can do it," Jim nodded despite still feeling bitter over losing his chance to gain all the dark hunters.

He kept draining the energy dry out of the lizard queen while the jelly kept rising up until they reached the level where everyone was there.

"Jump over," Hector shouted, "no time to waste, all must jump or stay here to die!"

His urgent tone made everyone ditch anything else and jump over the jelly and the place turned instantly crowded.

"Take us up fast," Hector said before adding, "the rest have to fire all they got towards that dark hunter."

Jim watched mighty waves of attacks launched and hit that dark layer just tens of meters above them.

Despite this he didn't see any obvious damage to that cloud of darkness until they got near them and his golden light started to shine over it.

"Sizzle!"

"Sizzle!"

"Sizzle!"
