Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!
Chapter 356: Come Over Here!

Chapter 356: Chapter 356: Come Over Here!

Even without hearing it from Iyas, Rococo could tell that it was Yang Yu who had saved them when she saw him battling the monsters.

Despite not knowing why Yang Yu had suddenly changed his mind, come to the Goblin Maze, and rescued them from dire straits, these trivial details could wait to be casually shared around a campfire once everything was over.

The immediate priority was to accept the proposal Iyas had spoken of and work together to overcome the difficulty.

Using her Magic Wand as leverage to rise from the ground, Rococo called out to Yang Yu, who was fighting the Goblin Lord, without caring if she looked like a lady, "Captain Yang Yu, Rococo will follow your lead. Please save my other companions at all costs!"

Busy battling the Goblin Lord, Yang Yu cracked a faint smile,

"Then I won’t be polite. First, use the ’Skill’ buffs you’ve learned, and judging by the situation, apply them to me."

Receiving the command, Rococo did not hesitate.

Priests seldom join the fray directly; they need to develop insight to make the right decisions at the right time.

Having followed Sekamens through numerous battles and learned much, Rococo naturally knew when to use which ’Skill’.

Seeing the bloodstained fabric at Yang Yu’s waist, Rococo immediately used intermediate Healing Magic to treat his wounded waist, alleviating his pain and allowing him to move more fluidly.

She then observed the situation and selected the most suitable buffs for the current circumstances.

Currently, Yang Yu was managing to battle the Goblin Lord without taking a single hit, so there was absolutely no concern about defense.

What he lacked was Attack.

"Holy Blessing.

Divine Counterattack."

After the chanting, two bright traces of light shone from Rococo’s Magic Wand, merging into Yang Yu’s body.

Yang Yu immediately felt a surge of power.

"Holy Blessing" could increase the target’s Strength by 10% and damage rate by 10%. It was a common damage buff used by intermediate and higher level Priests.

And "Divine Counterattack" could add magical damage to the target’s attacks equal to 20% of the caster’s Intelligence. It was also an extremely common support ’Skill’.

Yang Yu’s combat capability instantly surged, and he even gained the upper hand against the Goblin Lord, whose attributes wholly suppressed his own.

The Kazan Spider, which was avoiding magic attacks, noticed this as well and processed its belly-spun thread into sharp, dense short spears, bombarding Yang Yu.

Yang Yu didn’t dare take his eyes off the Kazan Spider’s movements for a second.

As the volley of short spears flew towards him head-on, Yang Yu triggered "Sudden Killing Intent," stepping on the Goblin Lord’s swinging arm, vaulting over its shoulder, opening the Illusion Shield, and executing "Interception," blocking all the thickly grouped short spears.

The Goblin Lord swung its Wolf Fang Club furiously at Yang Yu on its shoulder, but Yang Yu leapt up, performing a 360-degree roll in midair, and landed steadily on the ground. He beckoned to the infuriated Goblin Lord with a taunting gesture, signaling "come here!"

The Kazan Spider had intended to immobilize Yang Yu with its multitude of short spears, providing the Goblin Lord with an opportunity to hold Yang Yu off a little longer, but to its surprise, Yang Yu easily dissolved its offensive move.

Abandoning the silk thread in its mouth, the Kazan Spider made a jumping motion.

Iyas, Bai Jin, and Rococo were all fragile in their professions. Although they could keep attacking with silk threads while airborne, their movements during the attack were too obvious and easily dodged, while others could treat them like moving targets suspended in mid-air.

Despite moving swiftly on the silk threads, continuous assault from several people, constantly hitting its vulnerable underside, would be too much for its body to handle.

This would only liberate more people and waste the hard-earned provisions it had accumulated for its task.

Although giving up ranged attacks from the web meant losing some advantages, attacking with its dagger-like long legs on the ground provided a significant upper hand.

Hesitating no more, the Kazan Spider, like a small truck falling from the sky, landed beside Bai Jin, planning to start with this girl who had become somewhat weak.

However...

"Fatigue Healing, Holy Light Restriction."

The faint glow from Rococo’s magic wand instantly relieved Bai Jin of her fatigue, restoring quite a bit of her MP, and "Holy Light Restriction" brought down a column of light above the Kazan Spider, restraining it for nearly a second, allowing Bai Jin to slip away.

Seizing this opportunity, Iyas fired several arrows in quick succession, completely peeling the cocoon enveloping Sekamens from the web.

Sekamens was not as lucky as Rococo; he had neither been held aloft in mid-air by Bai Jin’s magic nor hung by the Kazan Spider’s silk and hit the solid ground with a thud.

Fortunately, the silk wrapped around Sekamens cushioned his fall and didn’t cause much loss to his life value.

As if not witnessing the white cocoon falling, the Kazan Spider lunged at Rococo, who had just executed several skills in succession.

At that moment, a sharp spear blade poked open the cocoon that bound him.

"Holy Radiance Piercing Spear."

As soon as a slit appeared in the cocoon, Sekamens, impatient, immediately used his skill to provide support.

The moment the white cocoon struck the ground hard, Sekamens woke up abruptly and, from the footsteps echoing from the ground, immediately understood the situation.

He didn’t know who had saved him, but the spider that had captured them as food seemed to have plummeted from the sky.

Whether the spider harbored resentment or intended to capture others as food.

Sekamens definitely didn’t want to miss this rare chance to break free from the cocoon.

Relying on the tapping sounds from the ground, Sekamens had long locked on to his target and, the moment the long spear pierced the cocoon, instantly released his skill to attack the Kazan Spider.

And his skill, driven by luck, hit one of the spider’s eyes.

The usually calm Kazan Spider finally let out an angry howl of pain from the loss of vision in one eye.

Unfortunately, the Kazan Spider didn’t turn to attack the white cocoon but continued brandishing its dagger-like spider legs, targeting Rococo.

But in those few seconds of brief hesitation, Rococo had already been whisked away by Iyas, holding hands.

Outnumbered, and unable to lock onto a single attack target, would only result in being played by others, the Kazan Spider knew this well, so it didn’t change its target and continued to chase after Rococo and Iyas.

It was at this moment that a shadow merged into the blade, and the person holding the blade charged toward the Kazan Spider, a sliding tackle allowing the sword blade to slice across its abdomen.
