[VRMMO] Dead One

The multiple fake merchant carriages that were hiding guards as well as merceries inside were traveling through the dessert.

"Get ready. Soon we will be entering the harpies hunting grounds and nobody will know when they will appear, so be prepared for combat at any moment." – said the guard capitan.

"As soon as I give the signal, the fight will start. Got it?"

"..."

"Good."

After some time passed, the carriages finally manage to arrive at the part of the dessert where harpies often appear.

After more time passed, we ventured deeper into the harpies territory in order to find the harpies. Honestly this was a stupid idea.

I mean, we are bait and we are literally going deeper and deeper into their hunting grounds?

For fuck’s sake. Is that guard capitan idiot? Now it obviously made us look like a total trap.

Well, if one of the theories of that O’a guy is correct, then we-

"HARPIES!" – suddenly shouted the mercenary outside.

"!"

Before anybody had realized, a huge group of harpies were already flying high above the carriages.

"!"

"They are coming at us!" – shouted one of the merceries acting as the escort.

"!"

"It’s time!" – said the guard capitan.

"Everybody! Attack!"

As soon as the guard capitan gave a single, 3 out of 8 carriages suddenly got torn to shreds.

2 of the carriages were complete blowed up while the third was torn to shreds by the giants scorpions kings and queens.

"?!"

"W-what going on?! What was that?!" – shouted one of the mercenaries.

"Wait it doing of the harpies?!"

A sudden destruction of three carriages created a lot of confusion and panic among the members of the extermination squad.

"...."

"Hey. What do you think you are doing?" – asked O’a with both of his swords out.

"Me? Nothing much." – replied ClownFrog.

"Bullshit! Then why did you blowed up the carriage!" – shouted O’a.

Suddenly, a screams of the extermination squad members could be heard from all around the ClownFrog and O’a.

"?!"

The members of the Purple Hyena guild began attacking and killing the members of the extermination squad.

"..."

"Fucker. Are you guys related to some bastards I dealt with in the past?" – asked O’a.

"No telling." – replied ClownFrog.

(Fuck me.) – though ClownFrog.

(That bastard.)

(In the instant the took out both of his swords and blocked my attack. I mean it was a sudden attack, but that bastard came unscratched from that!)

(Both his reaction time and speed were quite good.)

(By any chance his specialization is speed?)

ClownFrog summon all his skeleton servants as well as a new type of skeleton servants.

[Create: Burning Skeleton Servant]

[Create a special variant of the skeleton servant called burning skeleton servant.]

[The number of the burning skeleton servants is 10 at skill level 10.]

[Increases the number of the lesser skeleton servants, skeleton servants and high skeleton servants you control, based on this skill level.]

"..."

"Necromancer." – said O’a.

(Honestly, it’s not like I’m underestimating him or anything, but I want to find out how strong he is.)

(I couldn’t bring any undeads with me, so the only ones I have are the undeads inside the undead record.)

(I will use the skeleton servants as the sacrifice in order to gain any info regarding him.)

(But-)

[Unique Boss has appeared!]

[O’a "The Twin Sword Of Journey" – Level 275] – [Unique Boss]

"Fuck my life."

(This guy is unique boss?!)

(GreyHunt encounter a bandit NPC who was regarded as the unique boss.)

(Apparently the scary thing about that necromancer was his two stupidly overpower undeads.)

(We now know that the NPCs can be regarded as the "UNIQUE" beings, but I wasn’t expecting that we would encounter another one so soon.)

(Based on the GreyHunt information, the two unique bosses he encounter were way too powerful compare to other beings with same level.)

(The 3 unique beings our group encounter had a one thing a common and with that said, I can kind of make a guess about one thing regarding the unique beings.)

(So far, all "UNIQUE" beings we encounter were stupidly overpower to the point where their level did not matched at all their power.)

(So maybe the "UNIQUE" beings are beings that possess more power than any beings with the same level as them? In other worlds all beings that are regarded as "UNIQUE" beings are an extremely powerful beings.)

(Honestly. I think this theory is correct, but if that is the case then I that would mean than that O’a guy is a real deal, since he is also regarded as "UNIQUE" being himself.)

(Can I beat him? Or can I survive long enough for the others to help me out?)

(All the party members are currently focus on the extermination squad members, meaning it’s just me and him right now.)

(But here is a question.)

(The unique boss Forgotten Bride was way stronger than the other two unique bosses that GreyHunt fought.)

(He did managed to beat both of them solo, but that Forgotten Bride was something completely else.)

(Even with our current strength, I can definitely say that none of us would be able to solo her. She was that strong.)

(However, there is also the case of two bosses the GreyHunt fought. Both of them were extremely power and the only thing about them was that he already knew how to deal with the necromancers because of me and because his speed was the thing that allowed him to dodge those giant attacks.)

(The question right now is, how strong is this guy? Is he like the bandit? Or is he similar to the Forgotten Bride?)

(Not only he is unique being, but he is also higher level than me.)

(Do I have a specific advantage over him?)

(Are the swords he is using his only weapon? Or he is magic swordman?)

(There is no telling how powerful or dangerous this guy really is, so I have to watch out for any weird or sudden movements he makes.)

"Go!" – said ClownFrog.

The skeleton servants began rushing straight towards the O’a.

"..."

’Sigh’

O’a rushed at the skeleton servants that ClownFrog send at him and in near seconds he manage to get near them before then swinging both of his swords at the monsters in front of him, completely cutting them into bits.

[Lesser Skeleton Servant has been slain.]

[Lesser Skeleton Servant has been slain.]

[Lesser Skeleton Servant has been slain.]

"..."

(WTF?!)

(I know that the lesser skeleton servant are my weakest monsters, but I build them all around the defense!)

(I even manage to upgrade them recently so they are even more tankier now!)

(Okay.)

(He can one shot them. Without even using an skill or anything special.)

(This is not a good sight. This is not a good sight at all.)

O’a began slaughtering the ClownFrog lesser skeleton servants left and right by just swinging his blades around.

Before long, more than half of the lesser skeleton servants were already killed.

O’a didn’t had any intention of stopping, but suddenly he swinged one of his blade above his head and hit the space above him and cutting multiple fire projectiles.

"..."

O’a looked up and saw multiple burning heads under ClownFrog control right above him that were preparing to spit fire at him again.

"...Annoying."

"[Blade Aura: Darts]!"

The man swinged with both of his swords and each one of his swings were turned into a form of energy that flew directly at the burning heads.

Each of the burning heads were getting shot down by the O’a long range attacks and before long, the burning heads that just joined the fight were all killed in just few seconds.

"..."

(Oh, fuck me.) – though ClownFrog.

(I think I maybe fucked.)

(What was that anyway?! He just made all of his sword swings act just like [Flying Sword Slash] skill?!)

(Was that sword user skill or was it some unknown class skill?! Or is just his own skill?! I don’t know!)

(Damn! I can’t ask for the help from the others since they have their hands full with the extermination squad members!)

(What about Shri?! Did she done her job?!)

While ClownFrog was busy fighting the O’a, the rest of the party were fighting the members of the extermination squad.

Even though the party launched the surprise attack against them, the enemy still proven to be extremely tough to beat. The members of the extermination squad were veteran merceries as well as the elites of the city guards.

The fight between the guild members and the extermination squad will definitely last for a while.

While the chaos on the ground was happening, the harpies that were flying high above the sky were observing the situation.

"Heh. Stupid humans! They are killing each other!" – said the harpy.

"Are they bandits?"

"Who cares! We will swop in and kill whoever remains! Free meal for us!"

"You idiots! We are running away!" – said the harpy with a headband.

"?!"

"Why sis?!" – asked one of the harpies.

"Can’t you see that guy with two swords?! He matches the description of that the survivor from that accident reported!"

"Not only that, but did you saw how he took out those flying skull things?! We are not safe! We need to get out of here before he deals with that bone lizard guy!" – said the harpy with the headband before turning around.

(The sobek chieftain offered us a deal where we have to find his son who left their village alongside sobeks elite warriors.)

(He offered us a lot of food if we do manage to find him and deliver his messenge to him, telling him to return back to the village.)

(We managed to find his location, but he apparently, he was making a lot of the mess and engaging in the fights with humans nonstop. So we didn’t had any chance of approaching him because of the chaos he was making.)

(The chieftain decided to send a group of our warriors to break through the chaos and get to him.)

(However, the group that we send were completely annihilated and only one survivor miraculously survived.)

(She said that when they got to the destination, they encounter the completely destroyed town, but they couldn’t find any sobeks.)

(However, when they did finally found sobeks, they only found their corpse.)

(And right next to them, was a man who was holding two sabers.)

(The man noticed them and swinged with his sword and the next moment; all of the harpies expect her were sliced into two.)

(In the instant, she began flying away and thankfully, she manage to escape man attack range before he could send another one of his weird attacks.)

(That girl ended up being traumatized after encountering that man and she warned us that he would kill us all if he ever finds us.)

(Now that I can see him myself, I can definitely say he is dangerous.)

(I don’t know who this people are, but thanks to them we will live.)

(We need to quickly get away and inform the queen about this!)

"....Y!"

"?"

"Hey sis, I think that human calling us?" – said one of the harpies.

"...What?"

"....EY!!"

"???"

The harpy with the headband looked down towards the ground and saw a single person running away from the chaos while waving both of hands in the air as if she was trying to gain some attention.

"HHEEEYY!!!" – shouted loudly Shri while waving her hands around.

"?"

"What is that human doing?" – asked the harpy.

"I don’t know. But it seems she wants to get our attention?" – said the harpy with a headband.

"Hey, isn’t she one of these bandits that attacked them?" – said one of the harpies.

"..."

Meanwhile, on the ground.

"!"

"I got their attention!" – said Shri.

"[Tame Summon]!"

Shri summoned her owl monster and began pointing with her fingers at it.

Moments later, Shri took out a piece of paper and gave it to her own before making it fly towards the harpies.

"!"

"An attack!" – said one of the harpies.

"No!" – said the harpy with the headband.

"I don’t think in an attack, but just in case stay on guard!"

The Shri owl monster began flying higher and higher and before long, it finally got near the harpies while holding a piece of paper with something written on it.

"..."

"What does it says leader?" – asked the harpy.

"..."

"Something that maybe important." – said the harpy with the headband.

"..."

"Tch."

"Okay."

"We are not leaving, but we will not either fight. We shall observe the situation for now."

"However, if all of these people die or that sword guy turns his attention towards us, then we are running away instantly. Got it?"

What was written on the piece of paper? This.

[We were send by the lamia Sand Cobra tribe.]

[We are here to rescue you and give you the message.]

[We will deal with the guards and mercenaries, but by no means try to fight them. They made preparation against you.]

[If we die, then run away immediately and by no means fight a tall man that carries two sabers, he will kill you all. Avoid fighting him at all cost!]

(Sand Cobra tribe send them?)

(But we did not had any contact for a long time and we even had once a fight regarding the hunting grounds where some of our and their people died.)

(It says they came to rescue us, but is it really true?)

(However, they did mention to avoid the fighting the tall man with two sabers.)

(I don’t know who these people are, but we will have to just observe the situation for now.)

The harpies that were just about to run away, decided to stay and watch as the chaos continues.

"!"

(Did they read it?!) – though Shri.

"Hey! Get back here!" – shouted one of the mercenaries.

"Tch!"

"You are annoying, you know that?!" – said Shri while turning towards the mercenaries that were running towards her.

The chaotic battle continues between the party and the extermination squad.

However, while the battle between them continues, a battle between the O’a and ClownFrog was slowly starting for real.

[High Skeleton Servant has been slain.]

[High Skeleton Servant has been slain.]

"...Is this all you got? A skeleton servants?" – said O’a.

"..."

(Okay. He manage to kill more than half of my skeleton servants and the fight didn’t lasted for long or anything yet.)

"Sorry. But it’s not all I have." – said ClownFrog before snapping his fingers.

Studently, multiple undead giant scorpions that were buried underneath the sand emergent and instantly launched their stingers at the man by extending their own tails.

However, the man instantly noticed the ambush attack and used his sword to counter all of the incoming scorpions’ stingers.

"Seriously? Is that the best you got? – asked O’a.

"Of course fuking not!" – said ClownFrog.
