Chapter 739 Radiation Zone
Chapter 739 Radiation Zone
While Flying Porky moves around to avoid the group of giant minions, everyone slowly notices fewer people on the ground below. Even the number of minions is lesser than the area in the back.
At first, they thought it was because they were getting closer to the colossal Monster in the distance. Commonly, people avoid the battlefield of seventh grade since anyone could get hit by stray attacks.
Although they could already see the monster figure, there was still a long distance between them. Suddenly, Angus notices something from the unusual dying minions below.
"Shit!! Porky, turn around and go back now!!" said Angus in a hurry.
*Oink* *Oink* The flying Porky growls with its Pig's howl before turning around. Although Anna is its true master, Porky listens to Angus and Jayna. In fact, he prefers to have Angus and Jayna as masters rather than unreasonable Anna.
He had already lost count of how often Anna tried to force him to learn a weird dance under the pretext of making him thinner. Porky may be docile and lazy as a pig, but he is still proud of being a pig. If a pig is getting thinner, he is no longer a pig.
In contrast, Angus and Jayna always leave Porky alone while still caring for him, like washing his body with Anna occasionally. Hence, the young couple could communicate and control Porky easily with the help of [Alliance].
As their [Alliance] reach the first threshold, they are not only capable of communicating with a beast or other creature. They could even convey their thoughts with a few words and have some control over them. As long as the target is not resisting, they can control the target easily.
"Brat, what are you doing?!! Why would we turn around?" asked a dwarf captain in confusion.
"There is strong radiation in the area!!" replied Angus solemnly.
"Radiation? What's that?" asked the dwarf in confusion.
Unlike Angus, who came from post-modern Earth, people in this world rarely touch hot weapons, even nuclear-base weapons. The knowledge about radiation is unfamiliar and usual even for knowledgeable weaponsmiths like the dwarf race.
"In short, it is an invisible wave that could kill any living being at the cellular level." explained Angus shortly.
"At cellular level?! Is it a plague?" reacted one of the dwarves solemnly.
"Wait... invisible wave?!" said another dwarf.

"Olfre, did you know something?" asked another dwarf.
"Urmm... I am not sure about this radiation. But I know an invisible aura that could kill any living being at a cellular level. If you get overexposed by it, you will also slowly die later." said Olfre.
'There is such a thing in this world?!! Don't tell me, people also secretly develop nuclear weapons or in this world?' thought Angus inwardly.
"Wait... Don't tell me it is Avalon's Curse?!!!" exclaimed another dwarf in shock.
"Fuck!! Brat, hurry!! Get out of here!!!" said another dwarf in panic.
"Avalon's curse?" asked Angus in confusion.
Then, a dwarf explains the origin of Avalon's curse to Angus. In the meantime, the others start to check themselves in case they feel discomfort. Fortunately, their current area is some kind of buffer zone.
There are lesser minions on the ground trying to stop them. They just need to focus on defending against the spike in rain and thunderstorms.
'Hmmm... As expected of a magical world, I never thought there would be a monster overlord that uses radiation. No wonder Avalon is called the Harbinger of Death. It is a fucking living nuclear weapon.' thought Angus after hearing about the Avalon and Klimik dwarf community in detail.
"Wait... Doesn't Avalon live in the deepest part of Morvo Wasteland? That colossal Monster could also produce intense radiation?" muttered Angus solemnly.
Although Angus said in a low voice, most dwarfs could still hear him. This is also in every dwarf. In fact, they already know they will fight to the death when facing the monstrous being in the distance.
Unlike Angus, they didn't have ridiculous mana regeneration and needed to rely on mana potions. After a continuous fight and moving for a long time, their physical and mental energy also depletes.
All these dwarves may look strong but are far from their best condition. With their current state, they could only hope to make sacrifices to make opportunities for others. However, it is a different case for fighting a being that emits intense radiation.
The tale of the Kilmik dwarf community is quite famous and spread among the other dwarf communities. Even if it already happened long ago, it is still remembered by many people.
No matter how many of them fight against the Avalon monster, they will only die before they can reach it. It is the same as making useless suicide. As the warrior race, the dwarf race never fears death in battle. However, it is a different case in throwing one life uselessly like this.
They know intense radiation could kill them, yet they still dare to approach it. No matter how stubborn and foolish a dwarf is, they will never do something like this. Still, this makes all the dwarves very unwilling.
Their opponent is right in their front eyes, yet they can't approach it. However, they couldn't do anything. Even the monster minions also killed under this radiation, much less them.
"What should we do now?" asked one of the dwarves.
"I think we should search or contact Elder Forgus. Isn't he the survivor of Kilmik?" replied one of the dwarves.
"Elder Forgus?" said Angus confusedly.
"Ahh... yeah. It is one of our dwarf elders. He is the representative of the Gold Clan and the only survivor of Kilmik's incident. If it is about Avalon's curse, he is the most knowledgeable one." said one of the dwarves.
"Hmm... I know him and his mana signature. I will try to search for him." said Angus.
"Much appreciated, boy." said one of the sixth-grade dwarves nearby.
Although they have this discussion, the other dwarves never stay idle. They continuously improve the Fortress Porky and shoot down the incoming large spike and minions.
After an hour or so of moving through the battlefield, Angus finally finds a familiar mana signature from Elder Forgus. However, he also notices many giant minions surrounding him and a group of dwarves.
"Porky, shoot [Miasma Blast] in that direction!!" called Angus.
*Oink* *Oink* *Oink* Suddenly, Porky releases a few fast-moving [Miasma Blast] according to Angus' direction. *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* The [Miasma Blast] exploded and crushed some giant minions.
At the same time, Anna suddenly sits up and roughly grabs Silvia nearby while still snoring. Then, she harshly throws Silvia toward the giant minions in the distance. To everyone's surprise, Silvia didn't turn into pieces of meat like before but broke through the giant minions.
She even uses some wind spells to butcher all the giant minions nearby. In contrast, Anna is lying on the ground again as if she never did anything before. This sudden action surprises all the nearby dwarves except for Angus and Jayna.
The young couple knows how terrible Anna's sleeping habit is. Forget about throwing Silvia accurately. She even could play chess with the Twin Gemini while sleeping. This is also why Angus and Jayna didn't care about her falling asleep in this situation.
didn't want to lose this opportunity.
From their perspective, there is no difference in whether Anna is awake or not. The only difference is Anna is never nagging for food when sleeping. Seeing the destroyed giant minions, Elder Forgus didn't want to lose this opportunity.
"A chance!! Everyone attacks!!" roared Elder Forgus loudly.
"OOOWW!!!" shouted the armed dwarves nearby.
A moment later, Flying Porky arrived near Elder Forgus's battlefield. Since Elder Forgus is inside a dwarf base when the Monster comes, his group is large and consists of a small army. Unfortunately, the incoming minions are endless.
Moreover, Elder Forgus didn't dare to casually bring people to fight the colossal Monster since there is still intense radiation in the area.
Unless these dwarves could resist the radiation like him, he would not leave his fellow exposed to this deadly radiation. At this moment, Forgus also notices the incoming flying pig in the air.
"Charge!!" shouted the dwarves while jumping down from Porky.
"Smash them!!" roared at the other dwarves.
More dwarves come down from Porky and help Forgus fend off the minions. For a moment, they manage to destroy and kill a lot of minions. However, they know it is only a temporary solution.
"Elder Forgus, bring your men here!! We can't keep staying here." shouted Angus from the top of Porky.
Hearing this, Elder Forgus immediately orders his dwarves decisively.
"Retreat!! Everyone moves towards the giant Pig!!" commanded Elder Forgus.
Soon, everyone managed to ride in Fortress Porky and fly away safely. Despite having more passengers, Porky could still fly without a problem. His back is also wide enough to contain everyone.
"Master Angus, I am grateful for your timely help." Elder Forgus bowed his head politely.
"This..." said Angus in confusion.
"You don't need to worry about Dumrod's order. What matters now is to stop this calamity and survive." reassured Elder Forgus. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝘰𝑟𝑔
"Well, if you said so. Anyway, I hear from others you know more about this Avalon's Curse." said Angus.
Hearing Angus' words, Elder Forgus immediately frowned and glared at Angus coldly.
"Yes, I know a lot about it. Why do you ask?" asked Elder Forgus coldly.
