Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode

Chapter 126 In Their Dire Situation



Lola could only stare at the orb that gave off a thin orange glow in her hand with a feeling of uneasiness. She bit her lip because she didn't know what to do.

Lola didn't understand what the function of this orange orb was. What she understands is that she can increase her abilities with the existence of this orb.

But right now what she needed wasn't the ability of precognition or augmenting Magic Power. Seeing Clyde's state, she didn't need precognition to know what would happen if she left Clyde alone too long.

Behind her, Lola heard Rosie's screams. When she turned her head, Lola saw Rosie sprawling next to a very large hole. A woman came closer to her and prepared to kick Rosie down the hole.

However, Rosie manages to shoot a lightning bolt in time at the woman's face. The woman - Mona - seemed to have been caught off guard because she thought she could kill Rosie who was on a level far below her.

That's what makes Rosie able to land lightning attacks easily on her face. Even though the attack didn't do much damage to Mona, Rosie could buy enough time to move away from the hole.

Lola also saw that her other friends weren't much better than Rosie. That made Lola panic even more. She had to do something immediately so that their situation wouldn't get worse and cause them all to die here instead.

Amid that despair, Lola extended the orb in her hand to Clyde's body. Apparently, what she did was fruitless.

The glow on the orb is getting brighter. Then an orange mist came out of the orb and entered the wound on Clyde's chest.

A moment later, Clyde felt that his thinning consciousness had returned. Even though the pain he was feeling was still stinging, Clyde was able to process what was happening.

He turned his head and found Lola's face staring at him. Lola's tears came out of her eyes, depicting great sadness and anxiety.

"You awake?!" Lola said with a relieved look on her face.

Clyde didn't answer because his eyes were focused on the fight that was happening behind Lola.

The members of Lola's group were dealing with the Regressors who were facing her. And Clyde realized that they would almost certainly lose.

Clyde also realized that Lola and her group members intended to save him. So, at least for now, he had to take advantage of them to get away from this place. Even if he doesn't know where to go.

Clyde winced as he tried to look at the wound on his chest. The sight of his wound was terrible and made him wince because he was sure his internal organs had been destroyed.

However, there was an orange mist that kept coming out of the orb and into the wound.

Clyde felt a little better because of the mist, at least he didn't feel like he was dying. So basically, the orb is what keeps him alive.

"We... have to get out of here," said Clyde.

"But..." Lola seemed lost for words. "Where?" That's all that could escape her lips.

"Anywhere but here." Clyde glared at the Regressors hatefully. He really wanted to kill them right now. But he couldn't do that.

"Are you able to speed up... whatever you're doing?" Clyde asked Lola because apart from feeling that he had come out of the dying stage, he also felt that his Magic Power was filling up little by little.

If he could fill up his Magic Power a little more, Clyde felt he could create a distraction that could make them leave here.

"I'll try!" Lola concentrated her Magic Power on the orb and wanted the orb's processing to speed up.

Turns out, what she tried did work. Clyde felt his Magic Power being filled bit by bit. However, the wound doesn't seem to get better.

It seemed that the orb only had a slight impact on the wound, but had more impact on Magic Power. That ability was definitely weaker than Asqa's but now she wasn't here. So, Clyde will just waste time thinking about her.

"I think this will do," Clyde said, then struggled to his feet.

"A-are you sure?" Lola asked with great doubt.

Clyde looked at her, then at the orb, she was holding.

"I have to do something first to keep them away. Then, I will return to you. When I come, you must be ready to flow the orb again," Clyde said.

Lola immediately nodded. Then she stopped the flow of her Magic Power into the orb. Instantly the orange mist that covered Clyde's wound disappeared and he felt an extraordinary sting of pain.

But Clyde held him back and dashed towards the fight. He activated [Skill: Burning Hand] and threw fireballs at the Regressors.

It seems that the Demonic power in Clyde's body has disappeared because now the fireballs he throws only consist of ordinary fire.

Rodney and Reed who were fighting Leon and Albert were knocked out after being hit by the fireballs.

"Let's get outta here!" Clyde said to both of them with great difficulty because of his pain.

Leon and Albert happily complied. They rushed to Clyde and then saved Rosie who was almost stabbed by Mona.

Clyde also threw fireballs at Mona's back and threw her forward with quite a bit of force. Albert picked up Rosie and then took her running.

After that Clyde and Leon rushed toward Wiley who was fighting Eric. In Eric's body, several darts from Wiley had been stuck, making Eric's movements much slower than it should be.

Supposedly, Eric had died moments ago but because of his Stats, he was able to survive much longer. The poison darts only managed to make him slow down and feel dizzy.

Because of that now Wiley became very worried. He wasn't talented with melee attacks at all, so he was at a huge disadvantage in this fight.

Luckily the help arrived. A fireball came from behind Eric and hit his head. Causing him to fall forward and hit a sharp rock.

Wiley saw Leon wave at him. It didn't take Wiley long to figure out what he had to do. So he dashed trying to leave Eric as far as possible.

"Where shall we go now?" Wiley asked as he ran.

"To be honest I don't know yet," Clyde took the initiative to answer. "But for now lets just ru-"

Suddenly the pain returned and Clyde fell to the ground. Leon and Wiley immediately helped him up. But they didn't realize that Rodney and Reed were already chasing them.

Rosie and Albert were way further ahead than Lola. They saw Rodney and Reed coming but judging by their distance and the speed of the two Regressors, they wouldn't be able to make it in time even if they tried to save them.

"You think I'm going to let you run away!" Rodney said, furious. He sent his sword slash toward them.

Even though he was angry, Rodney knew that they would not be able to go anywhere. He was just mad because all of a sudden there were fuckers bothering him when he almost succeeded in killing Clyde.

"We can't run!" Wiley realized their limits. Everything around them is just ruined. And they were being chased by a group of players whose Levels were far above theirs.

Clyde didn't help much because his wounds made it difficult for him even just to survive. Lola had to channel her meager Magic Power to keep Clyde alive.

It didn't take long for the Regressors to catch up with them. Rodney slashed at Leon's back, causing him to fall to the ground and Rodney immediately kicked him.

Wiley was about to fire his blow dart. However, he still lost quickly to Rodney's sword.

*CRAATTT!*

Rodney slashed Wiley's hand, it fell with his blow dart. Wiley whimpered in pain and Rodney kicked him to get him out of his way.

Mona and Reed move to stop Albert and Rosie from acting. Meanwhile, Rodney was now facing Clyde and Lola who were looking at Rodney with a frightened faces next to him.

Clyde felt that everything that happened before was ultimately meaningless. He continued to spit out blood from his mouth and his vision was getting blurry.

Rodney approached slowly. Like a hunter who has succeeded in injuring his prey and seeing the prey dying slowly.

"You are indeed strong. Unfortunately, you are still young and naive. No matter how careful you are, you can still be caught off guard," Rodney said.

His words made Clyde feel like an idiot even more. And now he will die because of his stupidity.

Rodney shot towards him. Lola of course couldn't do anything even if she wanted to. So Clyde is ready to accept his death.

However, a flash of light suddenly shot from a high place toward Rodney. Rodney was forced to stop and used his sword to block something like a rod covered in red light.

'What the hell is this?' Rodney thought in shock.
