Last Shelter Online - Chapter 264 Floating Market

[Magic Damage Protection: All magic damage will be reduced by 55%]

[The power will last for 5 minutes]

Zziiing!

The power generator in front of Hiro suddenly emitted light, and the light seemed to summon the aura in the bodies of all players in the demon team, so that they began to emit the same light. It only lasted a second before disappearing again.

“Yahoo!” The members of the demon team suddenly cheered loudly because they were satisfied with getting additional buff. This was the right time to attack the magicians, especially those with high damage per second.

Boom! Kaboom!

Hiro was also not going to waste that opportunity to try to break into the opponent’s defense. This time, he planned to use his Void phantom skill to hide in the shadows repeatedly, so there was no need to kill those players who participated in the game.

Hiro moved in a zigzag. Sometimes, his shadow walked through the barrier vertically. Due to what the demon team had just obtained, not a few players from the human team had already left the battle arena and spread out in the spectator’s area to look for the orbs scattered in that place.

However, it wasn’t easy to find the hidden orbs without using a special skill. And no one seemed to have realized it until now.

“I have to destroy that generator to win.” Hiro started counting the number of people on guard at the generator on the human team. There were so many of them that they looked like a human wall from afar.

“It’s impossible to kill them all. But, with this Gatling gun, I’m sure most of them can be taken down easily.”

“Got you!”

Clank!

Hiro jumped out, leaving his shadow that stuck to the wall when someone suddenly threw a large sword at him who was peeking out to see the situation.

“Long time no see, Nightfall.”

Dominic. He was really aiming for Hiro from the start, ignoring the others because he knew who would be a threat to his team.

“Dominic.” Hiro had no other choice but to draw the Blood-eater vampire’s sword from his back.

However, as if Dominic knew that there was no way he could beat Hiro in a one-on-one duel. He whistled to summon the people around him.

In a matter of seconds, Hiro became cornered by them. Behind him was only a wall, while in front of him was a semi-circle from the human team that Dominic had called.

“Nightfall, it was you!” said one of the female players in annoyance. She remembered the name that managed to activate the buff on the demon team’s power generator.

Hiro didn’t respond. He was thinking hard about solving the situation right now. More than twenty people were standing before him within three meters. He couldn’t possibly take out his Gatling gun now. It was ineffective and too short to use in this condition.

“Don’t worry, NightFall, I won’t let them kill you. But, maybe you’ll be made to die and unable to move until we win,” Dominic explained. He was getting more and more confident seeing Hiro not doing anything.

Hiro had thought of a way. Actually, the easiest way to do it was by attacking them with a combination of Void phantom and sword combo skills. However, his Void Phantom was still on cooldown. He needed a few more seconds to use it again.

Besides, he had promised himself not to kill too many of them, or he would become a psychopath, as Ace told him.

“Why, Dominic? Are you so afraid of me that you summoned these people to be your protectors?” Hiro tried to buy time by uttering provocative sentences.

“Ha ha ha ha.” Dominic laughed.

“I know what crazy things WynterRain’s brother can do. I’m just a logical old man, NightFall. I know when to call for help and to go down alone,” he said calmly, not offended in the slightest.

Before saying anything, in his HUD system suddenly appeared so many notifications that piled into one.

The game had passed for 15 minutes. According to what the system had stated, there would be a floating market around the spectators’ area and the spectators could buy any item sold in the floating market to give to the fighter they had chosen.

And seeing the notifications that suddenly piled up and bothered him a bit made Hiro reflexively glance at the spectators. In front of them were now seen hovering drones that flew as if they had their own routes.

When the spectators wanted to buy something, a drone would stop in front of them to serve them.

“So it’s the time,” Hiro muttered to himself. The item notification given to him moved so fast that he did not have time to read the name of the item he got because it piled up on the name of the other item.

Even so, the game system was very well prepared. So that something like this was expected to happen beforehand by the game’s event developers.

The items received from the floating market only lasted in a special inventory for 5 minutes. If the items were not used, they would expire in 5 minutes. Besides, there was a categorization of items based on their function.

Such as weapons, armor, equipment, items, buffs, and others.

This time, all Hiro needed was one, and he found it in the item selection.

“Rockabye6, thank you for your gift,” said Hiro in a voice so small that only he could hear it. A faint smile spread across his face. That smile managed to make the human team that was blocking him look at each other in confusion.

At the same time, Hiro’s Void phantom was ready to be used again. Fortunately, luck was still on his side.

[New Year Firecrackers have been used]

Dratatatatataata!

Hiro immediately threw the firecrackers that appeared in his hands to the front, then he went back into his shadow and ran away. Letting go of the firecrackers caused the crowd to split up and back away in surprise. Only Dominic quickly regained his composure, although he was also surprised and dodged away from the firecrackers thrown by Hiro. He shook his head in surprise that Hiro had escaped from his sight once again.

While continuing to move towards the opponent’s power generator, Hiro skimmed the items he got from the spectators’ gifts. He saw a lot of items that were quite useful, and he became more confident about destroying the generator alone.

The impact of purchasing the special items through the floating market made the atmosphere in the battle arena instantly turn chaotic.

The sound of explosions from all directions also made anyone unable to stay at the same point in a matter of minutes. Most of the items purchased were explosive bombs, from smoke bombs of various colors, fireworks, and also firecrackers because the four items had low prices compared to other items.

Wheeee Crack Crack Crack!

The fireworks in the dark sky distracted the spectators.
