There's No Love In the Deathzone (BL) novel Chapter 602

Chapter 602: Chapter 596. Marine Snow

While the battle was happening outside, the communication officer kept trying to inform the approaching Raid team, even though the signal could not reach them. When it finally got through, it sounded rather dire.

"Give us the situation," with Bassena still concentrating on pulling out the cosmic energy, Zein took over.

[Ah, yes--the dungeon breaks had happened both in the city and the sea. We are entering a defensive position right now. Black Dungeon’s boss is appearing--oh, shit--it’s moving toward the ship!] the report started calmly and received a sudden shift. [It’s coming! It’s comi--oh, no--there’s another one! Huh...?] _{freёwebnovel.com}

The officer sounded confused, and the ones who listened were even more confused by the constant shift. Moreover, they couldn’t see what happened, so they became tense.

[H-huh? It attacks the other one? Oh--the bosses are fighting each other! ]

"What is going on?" Han Shin tilted his head at the report which sounded more and more like a live commentary.

"Let’s just hurry."

"Over there," the Eastern Sun’s assistant pointed at eleven o’clock. "We’re not far now, just go there!"

The Giant Serpent, as if having its own sentience, listened to the assistant’s voice and changed its course slightly based on the guide. They were entering a forest this time, and it seemed like at the edge of it, they would be able to reach the sea.

Zein frowned, wondering how much longer did Bassena need to pull out the cosmic energy. And then he wondered--if they were almost there, the Fallen Star should be even closer, right?

Then...where was it? The report didn’t indicate they had seen the Fallen Star.

When the forest was thinning out and they could see the cliff edge, another report came in. [The other boss had won! Oh no--it’s coming toward the ship!]

As they were stiffened from tension, the Giant Serpent finally breached the forest. They ended up on a cliff, with a sea in front of them, and what looked like a ruin of a city on their left. And, among the darkness and glowing red eyes, was a lone ship docked on a half-broken pier. It gleamed like a faraway star with the purification device blinking on either side.

They had hidden the twins! Zein exhaled in relief and grasped the commlink. "Gus!"

As he called out for the swordsman, Zein finally caught the sight of something resembling a serpent; with a long, scaled body moving swiftly through the sea, and a horned head. The most important thing, however, was its shining forehead.

[Zein?]

[Zein!] Senia practically screamed to the speaker. [The shard! It’s he--]

An explosion muffled the rest of her words, but Zein already heard the most important thing. The shard; it was between the creature’s head. It explained why the twins said it was moving swiftly. It must have decided that purifying one of the strongest boss monsters would lead to safety.

Good kid, Zein smiled. It’s better than looking for it at the bottom of the sea.

But his smile faded when a familiar scream came from the port city--to be exact, from the middle of the explosion earlier. Zein knew what it was before receiving visual confirmation.

"Zhan!"

The spearman jumped and the support magicians immediately gave them buff and resistant spells. "Let’s go, Aunty!"

"Don’t call me Aunty!"

The Easter Sun spat in annoyance and swung her arm forward. A high-intensity fireball shot toward the city like a comet and struck the space in front of the running Fallen Star. It was so fast that not even the cloaked figure managed to react. The attack itself did not strike the Fallen Star, but it created a shockwave that knocked the Fallen Star back--away from the ship.

"Let’s go, Syl."

The Eastern Sun, now looking more serious than before, flew toward the city while Zhan was rushing through the land.

"Go to the seaside," Zein patted the Giant Serpent, who proceeded to move down the cliff. Han Shin and the two support magicians immediately gripped the barrier tightly so they wouldn’t get thrown over. Meanwhile, Zein turned toward the meditating Bassena and whispered in the esper’s ear. "Don’t panic, I’ll be back."
