Chapter 210: The Group Fight

"Is there any need for it? I will show you why I am scarier than the army!" Ria Ross smirked as she formed a sword on each hand.

"Tasha?" Ayaka also realized what Michelle figured out earlier.

"Hehe… You little girl. You are still a few years too young to fight this elder sister. I have been contacting her this whole time… Though I have also sent a request for help from another guy." Tasha grinned.

"Another request?" Michelle frowned, as Ayaka realized there was only one person that qualified for such a role as she looked at Michelle.

"Your (My) Grandfather!" Both of them said at the same time.

"Yeah. Graham Family has come earlier and will probably arrive in an hour or so. That's why we should finish this as soon as possible and help Kai until the reinforcement arrives." Tasha nodded.

Now that she saw it, Sofia finally learned why Tasha said it was not the time yet. It turned out she had prepared everything.

"Anyway, our current objective is to kill these guys and rescue Evan." Tasha waved her hand as she drew her arrow.

"Still, they can be classified as SS rank magical beasts, right? And if we are fighting against a hundred of them…" Tommy remembered the previous failed Zodiacs two months ago. They had even a hard time to kill even a single of them, so he was a bit not confident of killing all of them here.

"You little brats. If you only want to whine, you can leave immediately." Ria Ross snorted as she waved her swords. The magic circle above her head suddenly summoned three swords and shot them toward the enemies.

This was the same magic that she used to fight Kai. The moment the swords arrived at the first enemy, they were blown away by a single wave of the enemy's hand.

Ria had no change of expression and kept advancing forward.

"Attack her!" One of them shouted as the group started looking at her and prepared to attack.

Ria arrived in front of one of them and slashed her two swords from above, only to be blocked by the skin of this failed zodiac. The clash ended in an instant where Ria suddenly lost the grip on her swords as she fell down because of the momentum earlier.

Having a chance to attack her, the monster tried to pounce her head with its fist. "Hmph!"

Ria noticed this and smiled as she was falling down. She was still around his stomach level, and it turned out she was baiting him to show his weakest part, his stomach.

She already knew that these guys had thick skin around their limbs, but the chest and stomach areas were not as strong as the other parts, so she precisely targeted it.

"Kh!" The enemy also realized her target and tried to cover his body, but it was too late.

Ria already summoned another pair of swords and slashed him into two. She didn't wait and threw the two swords toward the next person before grabbing the two swords that were blown away earlier and threw it to the same enemy.

Of course, she had the same reaction with the guy earlier that died in her hands. This female monster blocked Ria's swords with her strong hands by crossing her forearms in front of her head.

Little did she know that Ria already arrived in front of her. She didn't forget to protect her head and body to make sure Ria couldn't kill her. But…

*Slash!* Ria cut her like butter. In her hand was not a sword. Instead, she was wielding a huge war ax and used that weight to cut the hard skin along her body. "Hmph. Do you think you are better than me just because of that body?"

*Roar!*

There were two enemies coming toward her and tried to attack her, but Ria suddenly jumped backward. "Nice. You have entered my execution zone."

Without anyone noticing, there were a few white lines on the ground. They didn't know what these white lines were, but they felt dread. If Kai were here, he would obviously remember this because this technique was a technique to channel a powerful shock wave. The only difference between this and the previous one was the fact that this line had its end, not a circle like the one she used inside a cave.

"Die!" Ria slashed her two swords and sent two shock waves that traveled on the white lines.

"!!!" The two enemies realized the attacks. Realizing they couldn't avoid this attack, they decided to put their hands slightly below their abdomen to block this attack.

Ria smiled upon seeing that because there was another trick in that attack. As soon as they made contact with the enemies, it abruptly expanded and sent the enemies flying, and the direction was toward her.She used this chance and sent these two enemies' heads flying. "Do you think I am afraid of a hundred of you? Even if you throw me a thousand, you won't be able to defeat me. You are just like a little born baby that doesn't know how to control your strength."

Looking at how Ria could easily kill a few of them in an instant, Michelle sighed. "She really stands out."

Meanwhile, Sofia also gasped as she started sweating upon seeing Ria Ross. In fact, she was somehow scared of her. 'So, this is Ria Ross… The number one fighter of US Base, their hero.'

Michelle ignored her and quickly joined the battle as well. Her shadow suddenly rose and formed another her as both of them wielded two shadow swords each. The two Michelles went toward their first opponent and slashed their weapons.

However, this attack was very different. Before the swords hit the enemy, his shadow emerged from the ground and grabbed both of the enemy's hands and let Michelle and her shadow kill him.

"Now, I see." Michelle furrowed her eyebrows before announcing out loud. "They are far weaker than the one we saw in our mission. They can't utilize their magic and only rely on their physical prowess. As long as you are careful, we will win."

Two people finally reacted and leaped toward her.

Michelle glanced at them once and searched for another opponent. Suddenly, an arrow and a bullet pierced both of their heads at the same time.

"Isabelle! Try to find Evan with your hands. If possible, we will try to separate our group before they notice we have beaten these guys." Michelle ordered.

"I know." Isabelle's pupils glowed as it became slightly more pointed than a normal human eye. She looked around and found their base.

It was a small room for resting in a national park. Isabelle could only find a single enemy through the window and wondered whether she should take him down or not. The thought vanished as soon as she found that person seemed to be talking with someone. She then decided to inform Michelle. "I have found them, but I don't have the sight of Evan."

"Professor Ria?" Michelle glanced at her.

"My beloved student wants you to lead the group, right? I will go according to your plan." Ria decided to use this as a chance for Michelle and the others to grow up. If they were too reliant on her or Kai's ability and strategy, it would be bad for their development. Hence, she would only step up her game if the situation turned worse.

Michelle gulped down and shouted. "Isabelle. Keep watching their movement. If they notice that their minions are beaten up, immediately inform us. We are going to break through and save Evan. The others will start killing these bastards. I know that some of you haven't killed a single person, but if you are not going to kill them, you are going to be a waste in this place. So, scram now if you don't have what it takes to help Evan."

Hearing her taunt, the twins, Tommy, and Nicholas gritted their teeth and charged together to the enemies.

"Julia. Watch my back, will you? I am going to fight a bit recklessly." Sofia grinned while glancing at her best friend.

"I understand." She nodded, and they both ran toward the enemies.

A guy that had transformed into a bison walked toward her and sent a punch.

"You look like a minotaur in the myth, but I doubt your strength is similar." Sofia smirked as a few white thin sticks appeared all over her body as she threw a punch as well.

*Bam!*

"Moo!" Unexpectedly, the one that was losing. Not only that, but Sofia also launched him to the sky.

"Ice Ring!" Sofia shot out a piece of ice toward the enemy's belly, and it circled around all over the body as soon as it touched the skin. She then leaped toward the minotaur and kicked its belly, shattering the ice along with the body. It turned out that the ice already entered its body, so it suddenly snapped into two and killed the enemy.

"Earth Wall!" A magic circle appeared next to her before it was broken by another enemy coming from her left. As she protected Sofia from that attack, Julia appeared right in front of the enemy and blew his hand away with her spear.

The force was stronger than expected, so the enemy lost his balance.

Sofia smiled and summoned an ice spear in her hand before throwing it with all of her strength.

Having lost his balance, the enemy couldn't stop the spear from impaling his heart and died.

"Good work. Make sure to follow me." Sofia smiled.

"Yes."

Michelle looked at this development and smiled. "The enemies might think that they can handle us with these one hundred people, but it will be the biggest miscalculation they have ever made. As long as Isabelle keeps an eye on them, they won't know that we have actually turned the situation around."
