The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 277

Chapter 277 Sneaky Yetis

True to his word, Hawk eliminated the training group in a matter of seconds, and he was already on his way back to take vengeance on the Yetis.

Karl led the group close enough that he could get a general sense of how powerful the targets were, and found that they might have underestimated the power of the targets. What he had thought were High Ascended Rank Yeti were all Commanders, making this a ten Commander attack force.

Now that he had added the [Haste] Skill, they would be dealing much more damage for every minute of the fight, but they were still at a disadvantage in both numbers and Rank. [Terrorize] added forty percent damage, and [Haste] gave them forty percent more speed, but that still might not be enough to deal with ten Commanders at once.

The problem was that as soon as he attacked, those Yetis were going to start casting spells, which would exhaust Thor as he tried to keep everyone's barriers up. Once the barriers were down, everyone was in trouble, so Thor would have to be pulled back from the front lines to focus on the defence of the Golems.

What they needed to do was eliminate the targets as fast as possible, before they could do too much damage. It was that, or find a way to ambush the target with Golems and let them fight to destruction, then send more, preferably without being noticed. If they could take down a few targets, it would even the odds enough that Karl would be more comfortable fighting.

"Alright, I have a plan. Everyone stay back for now, and I will call when it's time to join. Rae, hide in the trees out of sight and summon your Golems into the group. Let them fight it out, but don't let yourself be noticed until I give the signal.

Once the Golems are fighting, I will start firing arrows from the other side, using [Chain Lightning] to slow them down.

The goal is to eliminate two or three of them right away, then charge in. Ten Commanders is too much, but if we can take that down to six in an ambush, it will be manageable." Karl explained.

Tessa pointed up. "You might want to be quick because Hawk isn't going to wait once he gets back."

"That's fine. If they think that this is a monster attack, they won't be ready for the mages when you approach. Thor, try not to get yourself too engulfed in the fight, the Golems are going to need your Lightning to hold up against the Yeti Ice Magic." Karl added.

Thor nodded and stomped the ground in annoyance, but he understood the order.

"Alright, I'm off. Rae, I will attack as soon as the Golems appear."

Karl rushed to get in position, so their ambush could be sprung before Hawk made it back, while Rae vanished into the woods after grabbing Dana instead of Lotus.

He activated [Terrorize] in advance, as it would spread to the Golems naturally, and then settled in behind a large bush, where his arrows would be fired without exposing his location.

The first grunt of warning marked the appearance of the Golems, and the entire patrol turned their backs on Karl, who began firing as fast as super humanly possible.

Three arrows were in the air at the same time, whistling toward their targets, and all charged with [Chain Lightning], while the Spider Golems leapt into combat with Stone Golems on their backs.

Commander Rank strength was enough that the burden hardly slowed them down, and the move put all four Golems in close combat just as Karl's first wave of arrows hit.

Lightning Arced through the Yeti Clan, but missed the Frost Giant, who had been just a bit too far forward of the main group.

But it had better danger sense than the others, and when they had turned right, it had turned left, allowing it to see Karl's arrows flying, and guess where he was hiding.

The next three gave away his position for certain, but wounded three more Yetis while keeping the others slowed.

That was good enough, and Karl whistled, calling Thor like he would an overgrown pup.

The Cerro began charging across the field, needing time to cover the hundreds of metres, but overhead, Hawk was faster.

A barrage of fireballs rained down on the Yeti Clan, ignoring the Frost Giant that was headed for Karl.
