Chapter 131 - The Forced Quest
Rudra silently caught up with the moving group. He had finally found Megan and Gary , there were even others who he did not recognize with them.
Rudra silently followed the group from a distance , about an hour later the group dissapeared after entering a rather large bark of a tree.
Rudra hesitated to follow?, the tree was obviously not big enough to fit five people.?There was a teleportation device set up inside the bark , Rudra did not want to walk into the formation , without knowing what would happen to him when he came out the other side.
The cooldown for the mirror was up hence Rudra decided to scout first before entering the teleportation formation.
What Rudra saw obviously stunned him , on the other side of the teleportation system was a party of atleast 20 people who were waiting for an ambush.
Rudra knew that the ' welcoming party ' was expecting him aldready. Yet the corner of his lips curled into an evil smile.
Unlocking a cork from a spike bomb , Rudra tossed it into the teleportation formation.

A string of damage appeared,?After 15 seconds he entered the formation two swords outdrawn.
Rudra appeared on the other side , he quickly used windslash on everyone that was left standing , as he used quick and nimble movements to dodge every incoming attack .
The party was utterly stunned after the spike bomb was dropped , they never expected such a move from the enemy , 6 died with the other 14 being seriously wounded , their ambushing formation was utterly ruined as Rudra wreaked havoc upon teleporting.
Megan and Gary fared the worst , the pair only had 20% of their total HP left after the spike bomb attack , yet they lost their minds upon seeing Rudra , the cause behind their sufferings.
Gary rushed in madly , only to have died under a single sword strike from Rudra.
-2500 critical hit!
Gary died!
Megan screamed seeing her partner die af the hands of Rudra , She cursed and wailed at Rudra " HOW DARE YOU KILL MY GARY! I WILL MAKE YOU PAY , I WILL MAKE YOU SUFFER! "?and used some kind of forbidden spell around herself. Rudra got an ominous feeling at that moment and he wanted nothing more than interrupting that spell at that moment , however the last 3 men of the ambush squad attacked him. Diverting his attention back to the fight.
Rudra made short work of the men , and focused back on megan , but all he could here was " I megan harp offers my soul to lord Lucifer .... ".
Black liquid came oozing out of her skin as even her eyelids turned black ..... Little by little her entire body was covered in a black liquid , covering more and more of her body .... A few seconds later , she was completely covered in a hard black liquid that was like a cocoon.
What came out of that cocoon however scared the hell out of Rudra.
[ An ugly creature ] [ tier 2 ] [ half metal half undead]?: an ugly creature born from a forbidden ritual , the user must offer her soul willingly to the god Lucifer to transfer into this inhuman creature.
Threat level : extremely dangerous.
Drawbacks : permanent change , the user will die within 48 hours of transformation
Rudra cursed his luck .... A tier 2 creature created from sacrifice? This would be extremely troublesome to deal with.?Megan herself was a tier one ranger that Rudra could make short work of. However the tier two creature was a different ballpark
Rudra had underestimated Megan , she willingly sacrificed herself to gain powers from Lucifer to deal with Rudra.
The creature looked at Rudra with utmost hate! The man disgusted it.
The creature charged at Rudra and used its hands to meet Rudra's dual sword strikes head on .
However instead of the usual cutting through of the flesh and bone , the swords were flung out of Rudra's hands as the swords hit the metal body of the creature.
Rudra was absolutely baffled , for the first time in a longtime he was outmanoeuvred in a fight.
He retreated a few steps and immediately and unhesitantly used the Stormbringer spell.
A bolt of lightning zapped the target , burning its aldready black flesh to an even deeper charred tone
A huge damage of -7000 appeared on the target .
Rudra checked the creatures EXP it showed [ 8000/ 15000]
More than half was depleted!
Stormbringer was definitely Rudra's ace in the whole , however the creature did not take long before recovering as it charged to meet the swordless Rudra head on .
Rudra gulped a max strength potion unhesitatingly , as he knew that he needed one to meet the creature head on .
Rudra had actually practised Karate and Taikwo do as a kid , Mother Rajput was one of the enthusiastic parents that made their children join every hobby classes.
Although not proficient , Rudra could indeed fight a decent hand to hand combat .
The ugly creature's arms shot forward performed strange movements that tried to trick Rudra's eyes. However, he disregarded them and crouched to slide under his opponent.
The ugly creature's attacks missed as kicked its legs and made it fall forward. The two of them were close, so the ugly creature tried to stab its fingers toward him. Yet, Rudra rolled on his back and pushed with his hands once his feet aligned with his opponent.
Rudra resembled a spring when he used his arms to push his whole body toward his opponent. He didn't need to see the ugly creature to know where it was.
There wasn't much that it could do while it was falling toward the floor.
The ugly creature quickly stood up, but Rudra's kick arrived before it could resume any battle stance. His shinbone hit the ugly creature's head and flung it away again.
Rudra chased after his opponent. The black metal seemed able to endure his blows now, but he would press forward until that material shattered.
His leg rose when the ugly creature entered his range. The creature raised its arms to block the incoming kick, but Rudra missed them on purpose. Instead, his descending blow made his heel and his opponent's foot collide.
The creature's foot bent upward. It wouldn't be useful as a foothold anymore in that condition, but Rudra lost his momentum after completing the attack
Rudra was attacked in that moment of weakness , however the retractable shield was used and Rudra avoided the blow. However he was flung by the force and got crushed flat on a nearby wall.
-2400 , a damage appeared on Rudra's status bar.
Rudra found himself unable to breathe for a second. He struggled to maintain his balance, and the ugly creature didn't hesitate to exploit that chance. One of its hands clung on Rudra's side while the other created a fangs-shaped figure with its fingers that flew toward his collarbone.
Rudra pushed himself backward, uncaring that his balance was completely off. He fell on the floor and dodged the incoming attack, but the ugly creature promptly jumped toward him.
The ugly creature tried to slam its feet on Rudra's chest, but the latter rotated to the side. The ugly creature's attack landed on the floor, and Rudra used that chance to perform the blink skill , instantly teleporting above the creature's head and turning mid air to give a vicious round house kick to the creature's head.
The ugly creature promptly ducked to dodge the incoming leg, but it didn't manage to perform it correctly in time to avoid it as Rudra's real move was not the kick but the concealed Kunai knife in his hand , Rudra took had out a kunai from his inventory secretly during the fight and he?pierced the Kunai through the creatures head.
- 8000 Critical hit!
The creature died under the kunai knife!
