Rebirth: Over the Horizon

When Adam reached his destination, he spotted Ariana who was not standing far away.

The girl was waiting for him while patting Ju-Ju who was currently in a baby snake form.

"Hey,"

She waved her hand and ran towards Adam as soon as she spotted him.

"So, here is where the dungeon was?"

It was his first time visiting the nether fire dungeon, the notes he made were all from the description given by the players who raided the dungeon.

So, Adam hasn't even once truly visited the dungeon. Adam smiled and gazed at the gate glowing with green and yellow flames.

The gate was carved with pale skulls that gave people an eerie, mysterious and terrifying feeling.

[Are you sure to enter the Five-star dungeon: Nether Fire, ]

A prompt sound came from the system.

"Yes"

Then the scene changed. Their vision gradually dimmed, and when they reopened, they were already on a piece of red land.

"It seems the land was completely burned by flames."

"If there is an existence in this dungeon that causes such a natural disaster, I am afraid that in a face-to-face fight it can kill us in seconds?"

Ariana said and ger was clearly showed her troubled expression, "Don't worry we can easily clear it." Adam said and smiled reassuringly.

But, his words were overlapped by the howls from a distance which echoed through their ears sharply.

In a few seconds, a pack of wolf monsters appeared before them.

The wolf's fur was blazing with fire and they weren't like the monsters he faced in snow territory.

They seemed to be above level 50 and their formation was also neat and organized.

"Well, do you look at that?"

Adam had a satisfied expression on his face and Abyss angel appeared on his hands.

The wolves howled and showed no sign of fear, suddenly the one who seemed to be their leader jumped towards Adam.

But, there is no way that he will fall for such a clumsy attack, he quickly defended himself and pushed the wolf back.

On the other side, Ju-Ju also started fighting with three blazing wolves under Ariana's command.

Suddenly, columns of flames shoot towards him, like a waterfall.

Adam quickly rolled to the side but unexpectedly it took a turn like a missile and heavily landed in his back.

"Kugh..."

Even though he was levels apart from the wolves, a small carelessness has made him lose a part of his health.

[-13, 900 HP]

"Heal"

While keeping the attention of the monster towards him, Adam quickly cast "Heal" and pulled some distance between them.

Even though the wolf seemed weak at first, actually it had a very powerful skill like this one.

'I can't be careless anymore.'

While thinking of this Adam raised his spear and rushed forward towards the blazing wolf.

At that moment, the wolf become blurred and reappeared at the position where he was previously standing.

At the same time, Adam felt a scorching heat burning his tight muscles.

[You have been inflected by Burn]

[You have been inflected by Blood loss]

He looked down on his thigh, a deep three claw mark was imprinted on his muscles, blood and flames were oozing out of the wound.

Adam felt an incredible amount of pain even heal couldn't recover his wound.

"Wooof..." The wolf sneered and become blurred again, there was another wound on his right arm.

He wasn't not yet recovered from the previous wound, now another one appeared on his arm.

"Tink..."

With a metallic sound, abyss angel fell to the ground, his hand and leg become numb.

[-100 HP]

[-60 HP]

[-75 HP]

On the other hand, his health was constantly decreasing by the negative buff, he received from the blazing wolf.

"Whizzzz...."

"Ahhh..."

Adam felt an unimaginable amount of pain from the tissues located in his face.

There was no end to the monster's attack, it continued to disappear and re-appear for the next few seconds.

Adam's body was full of wounds and he was only left with a little over 20% of his HP.

'I truly didn't expect these dungeon monsters to be this powerful.'

Even though the wolf he was fighting is only LvL 58, it had a powerful skill, this was an unexpected variable.

"Forest Healing Spirit"

[-600 Mana]

A huge amount of mana disappeared and a transparent healing range formed where Adam was standing.

By the looks of it, the wolf's skill had finished and it seemed to be waiting for the CD to end.

Adam used the robe he got previously and disappeared from the place, the wolf become perplexed at the sight of it.

There was one reason why he endured the severe pain and didn't use his skill, it was to receive a title.

[Title Received: Endurer]

[Your VIT will be increased by several folds when your HP goes below 20%]

Adam slowly took his weapon which he had previously dropped and looked at the wolf.

It was cautiously gazing through the surrounding in hopes of finding him, its stance was perfect to encounter a hidden ambush.

"Howww...."

It suddenly howled and quickly ran towards the position where Ariana was standing.

Ju-Ju had already defeated two of the wolves and was fighting with the last one.

Fortunately, it didn't become blurred like last time, Adam could see its movement.

But, it was not running towards him, even if he used super swap and replaced his positions with Ariana.

It wouldn't do greater good, his healing will be gone and on top of that, he also had to receive damage from the wolf.

'Let's see how she will handle this situation.'

For now, Adam decided to watch how Ariana will fight against the two monsters at the same time.

---

'It's tough'

Ariana thought and glanced at Adam, 'He doesn't seem to be doing well either.'

The scene she saw made her heartache, Adam was screaming in pain while receiving attacks from the wolf beast.

'I have to quickly end this and support Adam.'

"Ju-Ju, quickly retreat and use your scales to attack the wolf's."

Ju-Ju's body was covered with claw marks, blood and fire were oozing out of its wound.

"Scale Pierce"

Ariana commanded while sharp and tough scales un-attached from Ju-Ju's skin and departed themselves towards the wolves.

Even though the two wolves blocked it using their claws, both of their right eyes were severely damaged.

Using this chance, Ariana commanded Ju-Ju to grab the wolfs and choke it to death.

'Ah...finally two died'

The moment she felt relieved, Ariana could see a blazing wolf running towards her.

'Tch...what happened to Adam?'

Ju-Ju swirled around and blocked the wolf's attack, even though its scales were tough, the attack was still too heavy for him.

"This bastard...I have to kill him."

Adam felt an intense blood lust from her.
