Chapter 147 A Cold Hearted Captain
“Aliya, heal them fast,” Noah shouted at the top of his lungs, running inside the opening; he looked everywhere as he searched for Aliya.
“Oh my… what happened to them?” Aliya asked as she came running in.
“We were all having a practice session with Sirius when suddenly, he had this strange shadow rising from the ground. After that, he lost control and started beating. Thankfully, Ray got there in time and asked me to take all of them out,” Noah hurriedly explained. Doing so, he fell to the ground; wheezing sharply as he held his chest in pain.
“Hold on Noah, I will check you right away,” Aliya turned and said, she was currently tending to Tim as he was the one with the most injuries.
Due to him being the tank, Tim had suffered multiple lacerations from the attacks by Sirius and his shadow. Not to mention that the muscles in his forearms had been torn off due to the impact of their attacks.
[Healing Embrace: Multicast]
Aliya chanted her spell. Doing so, a milky white light shrouded her body. This spell was a self-buff spell that increased the user’s magical energy and made it more efficient for the user to cast multiple healing spells within a short period of time.
However, like all spells; it also had a drawback and that was that the user couldn’t use any large-scale healing spells nor could the user do a complicated form of healing that required immense conversation like the one Aliya did when she was healing Sirius.
“Help him, I feel better now,” Tim slightly opened his eyes and spoke. Although his voice was weak and on the recipe of being a whisper, Aliya could hear it well.
Hearing what Tim had to say, Aliya nodded as she moved to Noah and attended to his wounds.
Even though Tim hadn’t healed fully, his wounds weren’t that Sirius as none of his major arteries, organs, or limbs were damaged. Instead, it was muscle tears and little to no internal bleeding due to the impact of Sirius’s attack.
Therefore, Aliya had taken care of those and also closed the major wounds to relieve the pain temporarily so Tim could be healed later; after everyone else was out of danger.
Moving on to Noah, Aliya looked down at his wound and she found a gaping hole in Noah’s chest.
Looking at him, Aliya gasped lightly as she forcefully closed her out using her hands. Trying not to scream, she calmed herself down as she cast another spell.
[Healing Embrace: Instaheal]
Sacrificing half of her mana, Aliya canceled her other spells as she cast a high-tiered healing spell. Concentrating the spell on Noah’s chest, Aliya used all her concentration to close the wound on Noah’s chest.
Slowly, the wound started to close as the spell took effect, coupled with Noah’s vitality granted by his system; the spell worked wonders.
With the wound closing, the muscle fibers and flesh healed at a rate visible to the naked eye.
As the wound closed, color slowly returned to his face and his face regained a rosy glow.
“I guess that’s enough for now,” Aliya muttered weakly, wiping the sweat off her forehead; she shakily stood up and moved to others.
As others had received minor injuries, it didn’t take long to heal them. Therefore, Aliya used her remaining mana to cast an AOE spell,
[Healing Embrace: Halo Of Regeneration]
Casting this spell, a small halo appeared above her as it emitted a milky white glow. The glow spread to an area of 5 meters around her.
“Pull them in the area around me. Make sure they are not 5 meters away. This way, they would heal eventually,” Aliya said.
Listening to her, Elina nodded as she moved and carried the others into the halo.
As for Aliya, she sat down and took a meditating posture. Trying to recover her mana, she focused on resting her body while casting the spell at the same time.
This way, the mana used up by the spell and the mana gained would cancel out each other, leaving her with half of her mana at the end.
Meanwhile,
In the other opening,
Ray stood with his shoulders straight as he looked down. On the ground, Sirius lay unconscious; his body trembling in a pain as arcs of electricity coursed through his body while his fur was scorched all over.
As for the shadow wolf, it had long vanished and returned to Sirius’s shadow.
“Now that was a nice fight,” Grinning widely, Ray spoke as he stretched his limbs in satisfaction.
“By the way, Aurora; are you done with the analysis,” Ray asked merrily.
“Ummm… what analysis?” Aurora asked back, her confusion apparent as she didn’t understand what Ray was speaking of.
On the other hand, listening to what Aurora said; Ray raised his eyebrow in confusion.
“The analysis of the battle just now. After all, it was my first battle after a major power-up. Not to mention the Void Element influencing my normal elements,” Ray told her, expecting some sort of confirmation; he waited for her answer.
“Nope, nothing,” Aurora flatly denied.
“What the fuck Aurora, have you gone out of your mind? Now how will I know what effects the bloodline has caused upon my body,” Ray shouted, his face red from anger as his eyes nearly popped out.
“Well, you will have to fight against a strong opponent once more,” Aurora nonchalantly replied.
“You want me to fight again?” Speechless, Ray didn’t continue. After all, he was confused, angry, and whatnot. Heck! Even he didn’t know what to feel, much less say anything.
“Aurora, you will be the death of me,” Ray said sarcastically.
“Thanks,” Aurora took the compliment happily and even thanked the man.
Sighing in desperation, Ray bent down as he picked up Sirius. He flung the man on his shoulder and turned around as he made his way back to the others.
Meanwhile,
In Another Dungeon Instance,
A heated battle continued as Ron and his teammates fought against the boss of the seventh floor.
“Alex, throw him,” Ron ordered, his body covered in a red hue as his berserker bloodline took full effect.
“Are you sure?” Alex asked, not sure if he should do so or not.𝑛𝓞𝗏𝔢𝓁𝓷𝞮xt.𝕔𝓞𝓜
“Do it dammit. He won’t die,” Ron answered back, his voice loud as he spoke angrily.
“Okay,” Alex replied, disappointed over Ron’s choice.
Doing so, he turned around. Holding his teammate’s hand, he threw the man forward.
“What? Don’t, plz don’t; it will hurt a lot,” the man shouted desperately, but to no avail.
Alex shook his head and turned around. Not caring for the man, not even a bit.
“Arghhhh!!! Ahhhhh!!”
Afterwards, the man’s screams reverberated in the dungeon as the boss started beating the hell out of him.
Eventually, it got to the point that the boss tore off his limbs, and just as he was about to be smashed to death, a light enveloped the man as he teleported out of the dungeon.
On the other hand, Ron and the others took the time to prepare their attacks and regroup as they circled the boss.
Right after the man teleported, Ron and the others released their attacks.
The attacks flew in the air as they hit the boss squarely. With the boss unaware of the attacks, it took the full burnt and suffered from heavy injuries.
With the injuries causing the boss to lose a significant portion of its strength, Ron shouted at the top of his lungs and ordered,
“Continue attacking! Don’t let this bastard heal,”
With Ron’s order, no one hesitated and everyone started throwing attacks blankly. They didn’t care if the attacks hit the boss on its head or any other part of the body. Everyone just wanted to deal damage.
As for why they did so in such a hurry and didn’t even think of saving their energy?
It was simply because of Ron. They had seen his ruthless nature while some had experienced it firsthand. Not to mention the innocent teammate who was just used as bait to divert the boss’s attention.
Therefore, everyone decided to prove their use so as not to be used as bait in the future.
Moreover, some teammates had even sworn to never make the mistake of joining Ron’s team ever again.
Not long after, the boss’s health drained to zero and the boss fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Ron’s eyes lit up as a glint shined through them.
“All of you, I will check the loot here. You all go and clear the rest of the floor,” Ron ordered as he hurried forward to the boss’s corpse for the treasures that might have dropped from it.
“Such a cold-hearted and greedy captain. I literally made a mistake choosing this team,” Alex thought, annoyed and displeased over his own choice.
It was because Alex didn’t know of Ron, he didn’t know of his nature. Therefore, he had just chosen to join the team in hopes of working with the heir of an influential family to build some influence and get good rewards in the end.
However, right now; Alex was disappointed in his choice and just wished to go back in time and select a better team than this.
But what could he do? Hopeless, he and the other teammates went on as they started searching the rest of the floor; leaving behind Ron to clear the boss of his possessions.
