Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix

Chapter 624 Immunity



Chapter 624 Immunity

When the following day came, Rain nodded to himself in satisfaction when he saw that eighty percent of the warriors were back to normal. The technique that Rain decided to call Starving Recovery helped them quite a bit since it at least doubled the mana, health, and stamina Regeneration, and that was the result... they woke up feeling pretty hungry, so the name made sense.

One hour later, the warriors assembled outside the town. This time, they had five thousand on their side. Their force wasn't complete, but it would do... Rain looked confident, but anyone else from a distance wouldn't be able to understand why.

"Why do they have to look like this?" Terra asked while frowning. "This isn't very hygienic."

"You should know already, and it is for the sake of the victory," Rain said. "I want to exterminate all the monsters before I have to leave. I can't wait for Dad to send me a message since I know that he will avoid on doing so."

Roan decided not to ask for Rain's assistance, knowing that his son was already shouldering a tremendous workload. He wanted Rain to have the chance to unload some of that burden and take some well-deserved rest so he would refrain from seeking his help for the time being.

Terra could see that... everyone knew how much of a workaholic and training junkie Rain was, and they wanted to help him as much as possible. When everyone was ready to move, Rain looked around and saw Seara with the kids behind once again. She looked like she wanted to help, but she also knew that they needed a leader behind and someone to look after the kids, so she didn't want to complain.

"Advance!" Joris shouted when Rain raised his arm and then pointed forward.

The landscape quivered underfoot as an immense horde of orange giant slimes jumped toward the warriors. With each leap, the ground trembled and shook, sending quakes through the earth and creating quite the spectacle. These massive slimes resembled enormous, bouncing mountains, their sheer size and resilience making them troublesome adversaries.

There were five thousand of them, their orange, gelatinous bodies undulating as they propelled forward. The warriors gazed upon this remarkable and daunting sight, realizing they were about to face a truly a difficult challenge on the battlefield. While they had never faced a creature like that, and they didn't have any idea how to kill it, Rain told them what they could do.

"Only half, huh?" Rain stopped moving and watched his warriors passing by his side.

The best way to deal with monsters like that was to enchant weapons with elemental properties. Rain and Liss could do that, but could they enchant five thousand warriors with their mana pool? No. Even if Rain used the second seal to use Seara's mana, it wouldn't work, and he didn't want to reveal such a trump card like that. So, he came up with another solution...

It didn't take long for the warriors to meet up with the orange slimes. The sound of the impacts had been quite something since it had been a mix of bounce and muffled sounds... Although the warriors looked motivated and itching for a fight, they quickly began to be pushed back... fortunately, the ones from behind were quick to realize that and gave room for the ones on the frontlines.

The warriors stabbed the orange slimes with their spears, and while they took some chunks of the monsters bodies, it didn't even make the monsters flinch... the slimes didn't have cores either, so they didn't have any clear weaknesses. They also had a high immunity to physical attacks, pain was an unknown thing for them.

While seeing the warriors struggle, the scous barely could see Rain's expression in the distance, but they could tell that the warriors were trying their best... they just weren't strong enough to deal with those beasts. Not even the magic people knew how to handle that... so they assumed that it was their chance to win.
