Chapter 44: Chapter 44 Arrived

Zane quickly ascended into the air and unleashed wind blades toward the mages standing behind the palace soldiers. The mages didn’t remain idle. They immediately cast protective magic shields and blocked her attacks.

Without waiting, Zane then raised both hands and summoned a massive tornado that flown forward. The raging winds were so powerful that debris from the surrounding area was sucked into the vortex.

The nearby hunters had to cover their faces as the violent gusts blasted toward them. On the other side, Max watched the scene in amazement.

"Her skills are incredible! What class does she have?" Max asked Oscar, who was standing beside him.

"It’s Wind Caller, one of the top ten rarest classes in the entire Rahiel State, just like the leader of Golden Wing’s class. Once our boss gets serious, nothing but destruction is left behind. She’s the very definition of a calamity!" Oscar said with a smirk, clearly proud of his leader.

Max looked ahead and saw the enemy formation completely thrown into disarray. As soon as Zane’s attack ended, the hunters successfully broke through the enemy lines.

They immediately rushed toward the red pillar of light until they arrived in front of a massive door. Together, they pushed it open. Beyond it was a vast hall stretching far into the distance.

"It looks like a throne hall," Emma said. Among her teammates, she wasn’t a combat specialist. Her role was to map the dungeon and gather valuable information for the company.

At the same time, she had also been clever enough to secure a few Class Books from the palace along the way.

"Look!" one of the hunters shouted as he pointed ahead. In the middle of the hall, a massive red crystal floated in the air, slowly rotating.

Everyone cautiously stepped forward. But the moment the last person entered the hall, a gigantic magic circle suddenly appeared beneath their feet.

The massive doors behind them slammed shut. No matter how hard they tried, they refused to open.

"Damn it! Are we trapped?" Otto shouted from the front of the group.

Suddenly, everyone looked toward the throne. Two figures were standing before it. Both wore regal clothing. One was a middle-aged man with a white beard. The other was a middle-aged woman. Their eyes were completely pitch black. They both were King and Queen of this palace.

"Those two must be the ones responsible for all of this. Let’s attack them!" one of the hunters shouted. A few hunters immediately charged forward.

"Wait!" Iris called out.

But it was already too late. One of the hunters raised his hand, preparing to cast a spell. However, nothing came out.

The same thing happened to the others. No matter how hard they tried, none of them could activate their skills.

They slowly raised their heads as the Queen was silently staring at them. She waved her staff and blue flames instantly engulfed the hunters. Not even a scream escaped their mouths before they were reduced to ashes.

"Tch! Those idiots..." Riana clicked her tongue. She had always stayed by Iris’s side, ready to protect her at all times.

But now, the atmosphere had become extremely tense. If they were all unable to cast their skills, then they were nothing more than ordinary people.

In this situation, there was only one person who wouldn’t be affected if he were here. And right now, he was riding on top of a giant bird.

"Where the heck is this freaking bird going?!" Lars shouted.

"I don’t know! But something feels wrong with this bird," Ryuken answered.

Soon, all of them noticed that the giant condor had begun descending. Its wingbeats were becoming slower and weaker.

"Hey, why are we falling?" Justin asked as he was still hanging beneath the giant condor.

Right now, they were flying several dozen meters above the palace. From their height, they could already see flames and smoke rising from below.

Just as they were wondering how they were going to get down, they suddenly felt a violent jerk. They immediately turned around. Something had wrapped itself around the condor’s tail.

Lucien looked downward, and his eyes instantly widened. A gigantic frog was standing on top of the palace hall, its long tongue tightly wrapped around the giant bird.

"There’s a frog! A giant frog!" Justin shouted as he struggled beneath the condor.

Lars and the others quickly noticed it as well. Soon, the condor was dragged closer and closer toward the giant frog.

Only then did they realize, the frog was even larger than the condor. Its enormous mouth slowly opened wide enough to swallow the giant bird whole.

"What are we going to do? Do we just jump?" Lars shouted.

"No! It’s too high," Vega replied.

Lucien and Vega immediately fired their projectile skills at the giant frog. However, the frog’s slippery skin deflect the attacks with little effect.

"Ahhh! I don’t want to be eaten by a frog! My channel hasn’t even reached one million subscribers yet!" Justin screamed for his life.

Lars couldn’t help but feel annoyed. Even in a situation like this, Justin was still thinking about his channel.

"Wait... how about we use that?" A sudden idea flashed through Lars’s mind. He hurried to the side of the giant condor and shouted toward Justin.

"Justin! Throw your bag at the frog!"

"What?! Are you out of your mind? This thing is like my second heart!" Justin shouted back.

’Tch! This guy!’

"Then do you want to die here? What about your fans who are still waiting for your next update? Do you want to make them sad?"

"My fans?"

"And think about how much money you can make if you upload all the videos you recorded here. Your channel will explode! You can easily replace your stupid bag... I mean, your server, anytime with that money!"

Justin fell silent as he thought about Lars’s words. Then, with a determined expression, he unclipped the bag from his back.

"Where do I throw it?!"

"Yes!" Lars clenched his fist. "Wait for my signal!"

Lars quickly explained his plan to Ryuken and the others.

"That’s a crazy idea! But I like it!" Ryuken grinned.

Vega nodded in agreement, while Lucien merely clicked his tongue. He clearly disliked Lars’s plan, but he had no better alternative. All of them got into position. As soon as they got close enough, Lars finally shouted.

"Now, Justin!"

Justin immediately used all his strength and threw his bag. It didn’t fly very far, but it was enough.

"Now!"

Lars and the others immediately jumped off the giant condor. Ryuken struck the condor with a powerful kick while grabbing Justin at the same time. Then, they unleashed their strongest attacks toward the bag.

"Impulse Swing!"

"Desert Giant Claw!"

"Shadow Burst!"

The bag was blasted forward by the combined attacks, shooting through the air at terrifying speed. The giant frog’s eyes widened when it saw the bag flying toward it. But it was too late to react.

BOOM!!

The heavy bag smashed directly into its head, causing it to lose its balance and fall onto its back. However, that was only the first part of Lars’s plan. The second part, was making sure they survived the landing.

"Iyaaargh!!"

Lars, Ryuken, and Justin shouted together.

BOOM!!

All five of them crashed onto the giant frog’s body. The impact shattered the palace roof beneath them. The roof collapsed and all of them fell straight through it.

BAM!!

"What?!"

Down below, Max, Zane, Iris, and the other hunters looked up in shock as a giant frog, together with five people, came crashing down from above.

BOOM!!

The entire throne room shook violently as the main character had finally arrived!
