Nero, the Legendary Hunter - Chapter 139

[Not yet edited]

“Ahhhh!”

Suddenly, Nero was taken by surprise by an iron thorn that was thrown by an Iron Beetle.

Nero tries to remain calm, but he felt her vigor weaken, she starts to feel weak from the loss of blood.

The place where the iron thorn was lodged was making her feel enormous pain.

Soon, she noticed that it was the boss from afar that launched this attack.

‘Shit!’ She cursed and mentally commanded the Monkey King to come and remove the iron thorn from her back.

The Monkey King approached and with an uneasy look, he pulled.

*Pull!*

Her blood starts to flow faster, Nero used <Cell Regeneration> and [Regeneration].

“Whew~”

After she healed, Nero felt relieved, but it was still dangerous, she looked around, and there were still a lot of Iron Beetles, and the boss seemed to want to join the fray now, unlike the others who expected all monsters to be eliminated before entering battle.

Her vigor dropped a lot, even her mana, that’s because she used a lot when healing. ‘If only…”

Her train of thought was interrupted by a warning that appeared on her retina.

_ _

[Warning!]

[It is possible to use 2 extra points to regain stamina and mana. Use?]

_ _

Nero opened her solar violet eyes wide. “Yes,”

Green light enveloped her.

Soon, she felt all the tiredness, even her mana recover as if she hadn’t used it.

‘Incredible?!’ Nero grinned from ear to ear. Soon, her smile was directed to the Iron Beetles and the Boss.

“Well, well, let’s play~” Nero said as he giggled, trying to sound like a mean stepmother.

She was thinking about going back without finishing the floor, but with that, she could go on. She still had a little over 55,000 extra points. It was enough to not have to worry for a long time. Besides, if she ran out of stitches, she might as well swallow the cores and boost her extra stitches.

With that thought in mind, she starts attacking with more force. Of course, even though she knew there was such a possibility, she wasn’t going to risk enough to receive fatal attacks.

Surrounded by Iron Beetles, for they flew, the archery was the best option. Nero pulled hard on the bowstring before releasing a powerful shot:

*<Sacred Cannon>!*

It was an even stronger shot than the first time, causing a spin so hard that it tore the first Iron Beetle to shreds, sending the next ones flying as it slammed into the other Iron Beetle just ahead.

In less than a second, she had turned and yanked the bowstring and leapt aside, dodging a stone pillar that came toward her and fired.

*<Obscure Vibration>!*

An attack soon came from the ground, right below her feet, Nero made her foot surrounded by dark energy, soon she was flung into the air spinning, however, it was within her predictions, and she starts pulling the bowstring with more speed while spinning she used:

<Rain of Shots>!*

*BANG! BANG! BANG!*

The amount of Iron Beetles that were killed while she was spinning in midair nearly surpassed triple digits. However, she was not so lucky, a stone thorn hit her right thigh, when she fell to the ground with both feet, she tried to use only her left foot as support, but couldn’t help but moan in pain.

Pulling the stone thorn, her blood starts to flow, using cell regeneration and regeneration, she starts to recover. Her pets surrounded her to protect her while she healed.

Even if she could use the extra stitches to restore the wounds inflicted on her, there was no need at the moment.

“This is being a little more complicated than I expected, but it’s still possible to finish the floor,” Nero muttered as he analyzed it.

The Iron Beetles had an attack pattern, she just needed to discover this pattern, slowly Nero was recognizing the patterns, however, as there are many attacks from all sides, it was difficult to analyze accurately.

.

.

After resting, Nero returned to attack.

Her arrows flew in black and white color, no matter what the Iron Beetle was, Nero’s arrow survival rate was close to 0.

This continued for the next 20 minutes, until finally, the Iron Beetles were dead, leaving only the boss alive.

Nero looked at the Iron Beetle Boss, then she pulled the bowstring and used *<Sacred Cannon>!*

_ _

[Congratulations! Skill Sacred Cannon reached level 3]

_ _

Her warning to kill the Boss didn’t appear. That only means one thing… The Iron Beetle Boss was still alive.

Nero didn’t think twice before pulling the bowstring again.

But, she had to run, a shower of stone thorns came towards her, Nero ran very fast towards the Iron Beetle while dodging, she continued to pull the bowstring, however, as it was difficult to aim, she did not she shot the arrow, but the Boss didn’t give her that chance, Nero ended up having to shoot anyway.

The shot was like a cannon, strong yes, however, the Boss managed to dodge, then continued throwing stone thorns.

Nero then used the arrow shower as a distraction.

“It worked.” A smile curved Nero’s lips as he spun like a ballerina and then pulled on the bowstring and used the force of rotation to increase the power of the shot fired.

*CRASH!*

It was fired so fast that it caused shock waves, Nero was forced to retreat by his own bowshot.

“Haha, finally dead.” Nero laughed.

She then proceeds to use <Plunder> on the Iron Beetle corpses.
