23 Night Attak: The Pressure!!!

Zmnnnn… croar… Because his body was vibrating, the orc couldn't roar loudly, and when he turned around, he saw Zion and a dagger stabbed into his furry body.

Even his armor couldn't save him; before he could roar and retaliate, he burst to shreds as the dagger's vibration spread throughout his body, killing him instantly.

The only thing the orc left behind was his blood, with no trace of skin or internal organs.

He looked at Baku on the ground, staring at him with his big round eyes and mouth agape, shocked by what he had seen, and waved his dagger to remove the remaining blood to courage.

"Are you okay?"

"Yes, senior, thank you for saving my life."

"Uncle Baku, what are you on about? You're older than me.

And yet you're treating me like I'm a senior." Zion's left eye twitched as he was startled by a middle-aged man calling him a senior out of nowhere.

"Ah, haha, you are stronger than me, so I should address you as a senior. After all, it's a Tavern Rule to respect the stronger person. "

When Zion heard that, he involuntarily sighed; if such a rule existed, he would no longer be surprised by the Arzenia world's survival of the fittest motto.

"Okay, Uncle Baku, just be cautious the next time.

Oh, and there are still six variant orcs in the camp, so be extra cautious and warn Tesia and Uncle Gord, bye bye."

"Wait, did you just say Variant, hey, Zion?"

It was too late for Baku to stop Zion from disappearing in front of him; he just stared blankly where Zion vanished.

"What the fuck, he vanished into nothingness!" Baku thought to himself.

"Uncle Baku, are you okay?" Tesia anxiously asked Baku.

"Uh, yes, I'm fine hahaha"

Bam… "Dumb bastard, you worried us too much, I thought you were going to die already, haha." Gord chuckled as he happily punched Baku's right shoulder.

"Urgh, hey, that hurts, bastard," Baku says as he clutches his right shoulder in pain.

"What did Zion say to you, Uncle?"

"Ah, right, he vanished instantly, he didn't say much, just that there are six remaining Variants Orcs in the area, so we better be careful," Baku scratched his head.

"What?"

"Fuck so that Orc was a variant, and there are six more shit, I think we should regroup with the other warriors or else this night will be our death anniversary," Gord exclaimed, piggybacking Desmon, who was still unconscious.

"Uncle, if there are six variants, that means there is also a leader, ordering those variants and other monsters." Tesia shook uncontrollably as she grasped the gist of the situation.

Even though Zion didn't explain much to his Uncle Baku, she already understood how dangerous their situation was, and even if all the knights and warriors of the Tavern joined forces, it would not be enough to fight the variant, monsters, and the variant leader.

Tesia also points out that if they fight the variants, they will still be divided into teams; however, she already knows the outcome: a total slaughter of all knights and warriors in the camp.

"Should we run, Tesia?" Baku said, clutching his spear.

"Impossible uncle, even if we do escape, remember we accepted the mission and our identities are listed and checked by the one who commissions us, we will be hung or become slaves if we abandon the mission without any proof or backer that will provide our innocence that we did the right thing."

"Then there's only one option: find the knight captain and report this," Gord said to Tesia.

"Yes, that was our best choice, and I just hoped Zion would be successful in hunting all the variants to reduce casualties," Tesia said as she accepted that Zion was really stronger than her. Even though they didn't introduce themselves, she already knew Kain had talked about her because of his personality, so she wasn't surprised that Zion knew her.

The only thing that surprised her was Zion's strength.

She didn't expect Zion to be so powerful that he could kill a variant orc in a single attack, and she didn't even notice any fluctuation when Zion attacked, so she surmised three possibilities: first, Zion has strong control as a mage, second, Zion has a bloodline to hide his fluctuation, or third, Zion has an item to conceal his fluctuation.

Tesia did not delve further into someone else's secret because she has her own.

Tesia, Gord, and Baku, along with the two injured soldiers, dash to the location where the healer was stationed.

Roar… boom Zion had already discovered the third variant, but he had not anticipated that his target would be accompanied by two more variants.

."TSK…" Boom… Zion dodged the three variant orcs' attack by taking a step back and leaping to the sky.

"Celtic shield self-defense, activate."

Zion was surrounded by a blue aura that lifted and strengthened his body, forming a self-defense that would protect him from both physical and magical attack.

He stopped moving when he saw the orcs rushing and braced himself for the brute force of the variant orcs' attack: "Come."

Roar…. When the three variant orcs arrived at Zion's location, he only felt a twinkling pinch of the attack as the two blunt weapons of the two variant orcs from his left and right hit him.

Zion already knows that the two variant orcs on his left and right sides are only one-star level monsters, while the one in front of him was a two-star level mid-stage monster who was the same as him, which is why he let the two weaker variant orcs attack him and focused his real defense on the strongest of the three, because he would be stupid if he let the orc with the same strength hit him.

Zion raised his dagger and successfully deflected the attack. Boom Zion grinned as the three orcs were taken aback by his actions and his ability to withstand the club attack with only his body.

"Surprise, hehe," Zion stated as the two weak variant orcs took a step back, feeling threatened by Zion's pressure, while the one in front of Zion also released his pressure to suppress Zion.

Their battle was fair, as Zion and the variant orc fought without regard for others.

As the two tried to help their fellow variant orc, Zion accidentally killed one of the weak variant orcs.

Boom... Boom

Roar... Boom...

Both pressures were intense as they cracked the ground layer, and their fight turned into a battle of pressures.
