Chapter 387 Change of Pace

"Three Tier 4 beasts that are not suppressed by the stone pillar and more than fifty beasts following them. In addition, there is another Tier 5..." Clovis' expression was dark.

Even if he wanted to challenge the Tier 5 beast, it was impossible to win against all these beasts in this situation.

Clovis said, "We'll need to retreat a little bit."

"But if we're retreating, they will go to the left side, which will cause them to be pincered from two directions." Melody protested.

"I know, but we're not in the position to handle all these beasts." Clovis shouted back while gritting his teeth.

Melody couldn't deny it. Although it was a hard decision, they had no choice but to retreat.

Clovis slashed multiple beasts around him before shouting, "Jay, Ragna. We'll move back fifty meters. Take care of the rear!"

"Got it!" Jay and Ragna switched their stances. They were still surrounded, but now that they had a priority, they planned to abandon their post.

However, before they could retreat, a group of seven people suddenly appeared from the left. And their leader was actually Aileen.

"Kill all of them!"

Their group immediately killed the beasts, forcing the enemies to shift some of their attention to them.

"!!!" Clovis was shocked at first, but he hurriedly shouted, "Aileen!"

"Clovis! You are a better commander than mine. You take charge and assign us our roles," Aileen replied while killing another beast. "I've brought six people with one of them being a Tier 4 assassin."

"This number..." Clovis took a single breath to think of the plan. "All of the six people coming with you are to eliminate all those Tier 3 beasts or lower."

"What? I can stop the Tier 4 beast by myself." The Tier 4 assassin shouted in protest.

"No. We'll be focusing on killing the other beasts. Once they don't have any more subordinates, killing them will be much easier."

Clovis threw his short sword at the Tier 4 beast. The spider thought it was a distraction, so it simply smacked the sword away.

As expected, Clovis was approaching once again while shooting several bullets.

The spider blocked a few bullets with its legs, but some of them still hit its body and one of its eyes.

"Reee!" The spider was screeching in pain, but when Clovis was about to reach him, the spider waved the two front legs.

Clovis clenched his long sword tightly. When the spider legs were about to reach him, he unleashed all the momentum he had held back this whole time.

Clink!

The clash between the legs and the sword produced a clicking sound as Clovis was actually a step too late.

"Tsk." Clovis gritted his teeth. The legs had actually hit him, but fortunately, his clothes were still hard enough to stop them.

Clovis jumped back, which caused the spider to take the initiative to attack.

'You should focus on the change of pace.' Clovis remembered Mara's advice.

There were a lot of ways to utilize the change of pace, but in this situation, this was the only way.

Clovis let the spider come closer to him while he was holding the sword, as if he were about to draw it. The spider didn't know what Clovis was attempting. Since he presented that opportunity, the spider wasted no time using it.

'Change of pace... Change of pace. Wait until the last second and unleash my fastest speed!' Clovis looked at the incoming legs as closely as possible.

When the legs were only ten centimeters away from him, he struck both of them at almost the same time.

Clink!

"Tsk." Clovis clicked his tongue, not because he failed, but because the attack was still not enough to crush the legs. However, all that momentum from the sword actually knocked the two legs up, exposing the spider's head.

Nevertheless, this was also an opportunity. Clovis slashed and shot the head multiple times in the half second he had.
