Rise Of The Hoarder Chapter 167 The Third Gate

>WHUUUUSHHHH<

Making good use of my Coordination skill, I was able to aptly multitask. Since they were all frozen, I turned on my , I took to my heels and headed in the opposite direction they faced. In essence, I decided to go behind them.

Leaping high into the air, I avoided any physical contact with any of them and was able to transverse all of them in an instant.

>BEEP!!!<

I heard a loud alarm echo in my head signaling the end of my Skill. At that mont, the noise of the Demons resud as they all charged forward.

‘Pfft, this is funny.’ I nearly laughed.

It was possible to wait things out until they died, or pick them off one after the other. But, I had grown quite bored of the whole thing. After experiencing all my Skills firsthand, there was no need to delay things any further.

‘Let’s end this, shall we?’

“”

In an instant, the several fireballs that had been launched at appeared above all the Hobgoblins. Hundreds of destructive fireballs fell from great heights and charged at them. From my location, I could feel the heat and it didn’t take the monsters to halt and look above them in response to the stimulus.

Though blind, they were able to sense that sothing big was approaching.

“G-GUR-GURUIIIKKKKK!!!” They made one final cry of resistance before the flas descended upon them in their hundreds.

>BOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!<

Shockwaves were sent flying across the large compound and dust rose to an unimaginable degree. Of course, I took my queue and collected all the smoke into [Subspace], since they would be useful later on.

>SHUUUUUU<

The charred remains of the earth sizzled in heat as its scarred surface still emitted vestiges of the smoke I had taken away. In a couple of minutes, the ground would cool off. I wasn’t going to be present when it did, though since it still had that amber glow coupled with blackness that existed in burnt firewood.

Turning behind as I ignored the sounds of burning earth, I looked behind . I was at the other end of the second compound, and as expected, existing at the rear was yet another gate.

I moved closer to it, lightly trodding the grounds, and in a blink, I was there already. I had barely exerted myself in this fight, so the last thing I felt was exhaustion.

‘Plus, I leveled up a few after all that, so my Vitality is chock full…’ I reasoned.

The third Gate was similar to the first, having wood as its only elent. It was made of sturdier wood, though, and the compound fence that marked the end of the second portion of the Hobgoblin territory stretched way higher into the sky than the previous ones.

“Interesting… I’m feeling quite lively. Should I…?”
