The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1723

Chapter 1723: They’re No Match

Karl paused to catch his breath, and to shake the blood off of him.

It might not stick to his barrier, but it was everywhere after dealing with the hellhounds, and now that the mob was beginning to thin, he had time to do more planning instead of just attacking the next thing trying to eat him.

There were patches in the hellhound offensive now, and the number of archers that were supporting them had dropped dramatically.

The Kobolds were no match for Rae.

For a few seconds, Karl considered the options as he absorbed some of the excess life and soul energy from his weapons. It might not be the direct growth that it provided at the Mortal Ranks, but the amount that he could use was vastly increased, and all he had to do was adapt it to what he wanted his Immortal Spirit to be, and it would stack on his own power.

It wasn’t yet a passive growth ability, but he was working on getting it there.

There, a growing hole where the Golems were pushing the hellhounds apart. Karl used [Shadow Step] to appear behind the hounds, and [Chaos Vortex] on the Haint Claws to tear through them.

Forcing them to turn away from the rest of the group made them extremely vulnerable, but with all of the packs in the region already gathered, Karl had little fear of the same happening to him.

Rae laughed as Karl finally began to embrace her fighting style.

Shadow Stepping between targets was the best way to engage. They never knew what was coming for them until it was already too late. With only her two core golems accompanying her, she had managed to eliminate the majority of the ranged support for the hounds using that tactic.

Getting through them left the hounds leaderless, and in the dungeon, their insanity made them much worse at cooperative efforts and pack hunting than she suspected they should be.

In the outside world, a Hellhound pack should be able to coordinate these numbers without any issues. But the small packs weren’t working together, they were only working beside each other.

That meant that when she finished the last of the archers, there was no more coordination going on, and she was free to join Karl on the outskirts of the pack, stabbing through scorching hot hellhound hide with impunity, knowing that only those closest to her would even respond to her presence.

The fact that dungeon monsters were insane was possibly the greatest advantage ever.

As the numbers dwindled, Dana, Thor and Cara came out to fight outside the Golems, leveraging their strengths in melee combat to increase the clear speed.

Then, they were standing alone in a pile of corpses.

"Hawk, did you run out of storage space?"

[They’re stringy and taste like hot rocks.]

Karl laughed at the bird’s angry response. He had gone out to collect the Kobold corpses, and rejected them as unsuitable to take space in his food storage. But the hellhounds were apparently inedible.

"Well, maybe you’ll luck out with the boss, but I wouldn’t count on it. Perhaps the final boss."
