Ambrose stuffed steaming buns into his mouth. He soon had eaten all his remaining food but was able to restore his health.
RedBand watched as the gorilla smashed its fist at the ground and then picked up a large rock, and hurled it at PamPam.
PamPam quickly rolled out of the way, but she was sweating heavily and couldn’t keep this up forever.
Andyy shot forward and drove his spear forward. The gorilla slapped his steel paw at the spear and shattered it in the middle.
Andyy looked at his broken spear with a shocked expression. He then noticed an enormous shadow appear around him. He raised his gaze and saw the steel paw falling at him.
“Oh, shit…” He closed his eyes, resigning himself to death.
“Out of the way!” Felixar kicked off the ground and smashed his shield into Andyy, sending him flying out of the way. He then quickly placed his shield above his head and felt the explosive force of the steel paw crashing down on him.
He immediately dropped to his knees and felt his body breaking apart under the immense pressure.
The gorilla screamed and raised another steel arm in an attempt to finish off the shield-wielding man.
At that moment, an arrow swooshed across the air and stabbed into the back of its head.
The gorilla let out a deafening scream and stumbled to the side. It tried removing the arrow from its head, but it was too small compared to its large body and therefore couldn’t even find it from underneath all the black fur.
A floating name and health bar then appeared above the Steel-Armed Gorilla’s head.
[Steel-Armed Gorilla – HP: 345/500]
RedBand ran forward and drove his sword through the gorilla’s exposed back. The gorilla screamed and started stomping around. RedBand gritted his teeth and was thrown around like a ragdoll, but he didn’t let go of his sword. 𝓋xt.𝐂𝑚
Roza continued firing the arrows, PamPam carried on using her spear to annoy the gorilla, Andyy took out his wooden spear, which was his last remaining weapon, and Felixar protected PamPam whenever it was needed.
The gorilla let out its loudest scream. It suddenly shot forward towards Roza and slammed its steel paw straight into her. Roza’s body exploded on impact, and she immediately became nothing but floating pixels.
“Roza!” RedBand shouted and removed his sword from the gorilla’s back. He backed off a few steps and wiped off his sweat.
The gorilla turned its blood-red eyes at the rest of the ant-like humans. It had grown used to facing off against weak villagers and thought of them as nothing but vermin. Now, it had received more damage than ever before in its life.
The more damage it received, the stronger it became.
SMACK, SMACK, SMACK—The gorilla pounded its steel paws against its chest powerfully to show its might.
“High Pain.”
A black-haired figure appeared from its blind spot and left behind two deep, bloody cuts on its large legs. The gorilla could often endure such wounds, but this time, it let out a maddening cry of agony.
“Attack!” Ambrose shouted and charged at the gorilla with both swords in hand. “Kill!”
He attacked the gorilla’s back, slashing at its thick neck and shoulders. With Kill activated, his attacks were ferocious and never-ending. The gorilla could only scream in agony as it tried to remove the vermin off its back, but it was still under the effect of the stun.
RedBand, Felixar, PamPam, and Andyy attacked the gorilla with a variety of skills. The gorilla finally managed to move its arm, but instead of attacking, it covered its head to block most of the strikes. It was completely taken aback by the attacks and only had thoughts of defending left.
It had lost most of its fighting spirit after suffering immense pain.
“Humans… I will… kill… you all…” The gorilla raised its menacing blood-red eyes and looked straight at RedBand.
“B-Boss, did this gorilla just talk?” Andyy screamed.
“I have no fucking idea…” RedBand was shocked, but he knew that they were very close to killing the gorilla. “Continue attacking!”
At that moment, the gorilla managed to move the rest of its limbs and immediately grabbed PamPam with its right steel paw. PamPam screamed as she immediately felt her body being crushed to pieces by immense strength. She didn’t have time to react as the gorilla squeezed.
Her whole existence became nothing but tiny, light blue pixels.
“Huh?” Ambrose was still swinging his swords madly at the gorilla’s back, but then he was thrown off by the gorilla’s sudden movement. He crashed on the ground and rolled for a few meters before he again stood up and rushed back at the gorilla.
The kill was still activated, and he couldn’t deactivate it until the gorilla was dead. It was the biggest side effect of the skill. He couldn’t stop until the gorilla was dead or him!
The gorilla didn’t expect the human to attack right away. It swung its steel paw towards the black-haired human, but he dodged it and jumped on top of the arm. He began furiously slashing at the steel arm while running on top of it.
The gorilla swung its steel arm in an attempt to throw away the human. Ambrose was thrown into the air, but he quickly spun around and crashed straight into the gorilla’s body. And there, he stabbed his swords into its large chest and began cutting down its flesh.
“ROAR!” The gorilla screamed and slapped its steel paw at the crazy human, but then a tall figure appeared in front of the paw and blocked it with the shield.
Felixar cried out and pushed the steel paw back with its last remaining strength.
Back on the ground, RedBand slashed at the gorilla’s legs while Andyy drove his wooden spear through the other leg. He didn’t remove the spear and instead ran to the spot where PamPam died.
PamPam had dropped her steel spear.
Andyy took it and temporarily planned to use it as his main weapon.
The gorilla fell to the ground sideways, and Andyy appeared in front of its face and stabbed the steel spear through its eye. The gorilla screamed hoarsely, but it couldn’t do anything about it.
“Humans… DIE!” It screamed, but it was already at death’s door, with health depleting quickly.
Ambrose furiously continued slashing through the chest and stomach.
Felixar tossed away his spear and smashed his fists into the gorilla’s body. They had all thrown away all the ideas of defense. They now had a chance to kill the gorilla, and of course they shouldn’t miss the chance!
RedBand appeared beside Ambrose and hacked down at the gorilla’s flesh. They both hacked, stabbed, slashed, sliced, cut, and chopped.
After a few moments, the gorilla’s scream stopped, and it stopped moving. The menacing light from its blood-red eyes disappeared. Its large body started disappearing, and soon only a treasure chest was left where it was just a moment ago.
The treasure chest was brown with a gold lining. It looked very precious and luxurious, as if it belonged to some ancient king who had long ago passed away.
The remaining members of the party surrounded the treasure chest.
