But having taken the situation into account, Weed already thought up of a countermeasure beforehand.
“The situation is getting worse by the second. Corpse Explosion!”
The body of the first of the Fire Giants to die was used for the spell.
The shockwave shook the entire dungeon leaving behind smoke and flames to fill the area.
- Corpse Explosion has increased by 1 level.
Hostility from Fire Giants has reached maximum value.
The effect of items that lowers hostility will be weakened.
It is advised that you should avoid attracting the Fire Giants’ attention.
Some of the debris that came from the Fire Giant’s corpse flew towards Weed’s location.
Because of the huge explosion that occurred, six Chaos Warriors were killed.
And a lot of the other enemies were lying on the ground.
Weed has now gained more time so he cannot afford to waste this chance.
Van Hawk began his attacks taking advantage of the opportunity together with Tori.
Weed also manipulated the undead to charge at the wounded Kubichya while Golden Bird and Eunsae prepared another pincer attack at both sides.
“Cut him down!”
Golden Bird and Eunsae came flying down at an extremely high speed clawing Kubichya and dealing huge amount of damage.
“How could my warriors easily fall here? Damn dogs of the Inferno Knights! I shall thoroughly crush you and you’re undead here.”
The undead continued their attacks but this time Kubichya made a powerful counterattack with his axe.
The undead could do nothing but die in vain.
Only about seven undead Chaos Warriors survived.
“Aerial Bind!”
A tempest formed surrounding the area with Kubichya as its center. It was like a barrier that confined the area preventing Van Hawk and the undead from escaping.
“Keuheuheuheu, I’m going to kill you first!”
With Van Hawk trapped inside the wind barrier, Kubichya initiated a one on one battle.
Kubichya swung his axe with tremendous speed. Seeing the attack, Van Hawk focused into defense but he was unable to handle the power and was blown away.
Finally Kubichya, after disrupting Van Hawk’s stance, slashed him with his sword.
“Ku… uugh.”
After countless battles, Van Hawk finally died.
But since his body and soul was sealed by black magic inside a necklace it was still possible to resummon him after the item’s cooldown.
However, since he had died early, a major force in Weed’s party had disappeared from the battlefield.
But at the very least, he was somehow able to decrease Kubichya’s health by 3%.
‘We’re completely isolated.’
Weed already deemed that the odds of winning were now very slim.
Kubichya’s remaining health is still very high and he having a high level and high defense is only making things worse.
‘I should let Golden Bird and Eunsae retreat before it’s too late.’
With the situation as is, Weed is unable to escape so he instructed Golden Bird and Eunsae to fly through the gaps of the wind barrier before they join him in his impending death.
As for Seoyoon, she immediately rushed towards Kubichya passing through the dense smoke created after the Fire Giant exploded.
Her sword was now emitting an intense red light.
While Kubichya had his health and mana constantly drained, a meteor shower like barrage went hurling towards him.
A volley of attacks that ignores all sorts of defense.

In the cinema room of KMC Media, everyone was busy working.
“I want that part cut off. Focus at the direction where a lot of monsters can be seen on the screen. The view from the lava is too bright.”
“Should I lower the brightness?”
“Let’s make the lava part a little darker. We should avoid having the viewers hurt their eyes.”
An enormous amount of video material was being transmitted from Weed’s battle.
So KMC Media was trying to cut as much unnecessary parts as possible.
During this time, Drinfeld and Haven Kingdom’s 2nd fleet together with Griffith and his pirate crew were still hunting above ground in Las Phalanx.
A video clip was then suddenly aired on television showing a volcanic eruption then shifting the scene to where a lot of Chaos Warriors gathered.
“Chaos Daejeonsa Kubichya instigated a race war.”
“If they win this war then they will become the dominant race of Las Phalanx. Currently the Inferno Knights, Fire Giants, and Baovants are in engaged in a battle royal with them.”
Afterwards, two huge explosions occurred in the underground of Las Phalanx.
***
Underneath the sky of Las Phalanx war clouds are gathering.
“We are interfering with that skeleton.”
“Gather more of the troops!”
“We will not let him stop Kubichya.”
***
Everyone who saw the video immediately recognized it as Weed’s quest.
Audience of CTS Media flocked over to KMC Media’s forum requesting to broadcast the whole show.
Rumors of the continuation of Weed’s quest went viral on the internet.
***
Director Kang deemed that both Drinfeld and Griffith can neither interfere with Weed’s quest at this point.
“The problem is whether he will succeed or not……”
Whether the quest will be a success or a failure, it was still worth to broadcast.
And if he does not broadcast the quest soon, the viewers that kept on asking when the show will air will soon start flaming them.
But the information about the program that will feature Weed’s quest was still hidden with strict confidentiality, he even told the advertisers to just prepare.
Even enterprises that don’t usually advertise favourably complied.
“Our company is affiliated with several groups now… So which five should we advertise first?”
“How many hours will it take to finish editing? And what time can we start the broadcast? As for the ads, process the ones from our new sponsors, I would like to have them air first.”
“The ones with high advertising rate, understood. With this, our rival companies can’t beat us in the ratings.”
The advertising contracts were already done all that was left was to balance out the broadcasting time.
