Matt was quick to defend himself, but the increase in stats these undead received was surprising.
"Through tools, you can use magic, eh... I see. That's a pretty good tool you got there, Becker," Matt said, jumping back a bit to dodge a blow from one of the undead.
Gabriel Becker smiled, "You have a lot of knowledge, Matthew Dietrich. Still, that doesn't do you any good. But since you came alone, let me show you the true ability of this pearl."
He immediately pulled the pearl from around his neck and said some strange things about it, activating it.
The pearl then floated in the sky and began to give off strange auras of different colors: red, yellow, and gray.
These auras surrounded everyone below it, quickly reaching Matt.
'Buff and Debuff? Tsk, this pearl is annoying and very well made.' He thought.
He could feel the speed in his body slowing down considerably, but he could also feel that there was some kind of strange poison trying to get into his body.
This stunned him, so he jumped backward.
At the same time, all the undead received various upgrades.
Specifically in their defenses, as their bodies grew slightly.
One of the undead jumped towards Matt, knocking him down again.
He fell with a clatter to the ground, and several lunged at that spot to choke him.
Still, they landed in a lonely place, for Matt had disappeared.
'Let's see if I can steal this thing.' He thought.
He wanted to find a way for the Becker before him to drop the pearl, which was why he hadn't been attacking with determination. That's why this was the perfect time to reveal his power.
And Gabriel Becker was stunned after seeing him appear above him instantly.
Still, when Matt touched the pearl, he felt a strong repulsion that pushed him several meters away and sent him to the ground again.
At the same time and in succession, more than 50 heads of different undead were destroyed.
They had all formed a line while trying to run towards Mat, so they didn't even have a second to react with their low defense.
Matt then jumped to the other side and launched a powerful attack toward five undead, destroying their heads instantly.
'I can't destroy anything else; it's better to focus on the head.'
Even so, when he thought like that, he had to turn his body to dodge the attack of Gabriel Becker, who had recovered and was attacking him.
He hit the wall behind him but quickly recovered to attack him again.
His second attack was fast and accurate. He recovered at an amazing speed, but when he thought he would hit Matt, Matt appeared behind him.
"Mr. Becker, I think it's time for you to sleep for a while." Matt said softly as he attacked him from behind with a powerful blow.
The blow was meant to hit him in the place where the heart was, ready to kill him at once. Moreover, he had used his two skills skillfully, causing the weight of his fist to increase dramatically. But at the last moment, a shadow passed by him, taking Gabriel Becker with it.
Matt's punch then hit the ground hard as it failed to find a target and he frowned.
'It's powerful, ' he thought, seeing that a person had materialized to the side as he carried Gabriel Becker.
Gabriel Becker was stunned by Matt's speed earlier, but he remembered the moment they met and was stunned. 'At that time, he seems to have done it too. Is it a skill?'
Then he looked up to see who had rescued him.
"Luke White." He said softly as he stood up once again, his arm sore.
Luke White nodded to him, "Mr. Recruiter, what do we do? I came to warn you that many of the allies within the City of Clans have been taken by the realm, and several have died. But I did not expect to find so many powers here, and now they are hunting me down." He said as he frowned.
Gabriel nodded, "Let's assassinate this bastard quickly and get out of here. Let's use the secret passages." Gabriel Becker replied, but then his eyes widened as he saw Matt disappear from where he was and could not find him.
"Look out!" he shouted.
Then a voice came from behind him, and a strange, slightly blue light crossed his sight, making him feel cold on his neck...
