Henry looked at the information once again. And this time, he realized that suddenly, the power level of the man in front of him had actually increased to the third level of the gold rank. But, the thing that made everything worse was the fact that there was still the words that the power level was actually still increasing.

Until now, this guy called Hanson had actually not spoken a single word, and he was just looking at them. He was silent the entire time, as if he did not really care about the actions that Henry and his group did.

But of course, Henry understood that this was definitely something that they were disadvantageous at. So, in order to deal with this person, they had to do it as fast as possible. Otherwise, they might end up in a situation where they were not capable getting out of here.

Henry was not the only one who thought that way. Olivia who was standing on his left was thinking the same way. And at this point, the air around her had already begun freezing.

She was not willing to be trapped in here. Currently, Sarah was outside of this place, and although she was being taken care of by Storm, but, that was just not enough.

Sarah’s condition was currently critical. For that reason, she needed someone to look after her. And, they did not really know about when she was going to wake up. So, the earlier they got out of here, the better it was going to be for Sarah.

Of course, during the time that they were not engaged in any fight, she had actually been training in the ice manipulation. That was something that she had been doing during her free time.

And since there was nothing for her to do after she reached level 9 of the silver rank, the only thing that she could do was to improve the level of her ice manipulation in order to be able to increase her strength.

As if they had come into a tacit agreement, everyone made a move. They launched their attacks at the same time. They had already realized that the more time they wasted, the stronger this opponent of theirs was going to get. So, before he became strong enough to be able to crush them with a single attack, then, it was better if they took care of him now.

Boom!

Stomping heavily onto the ground, Adam waved the battle ax in his hand. And in the next moment, a shock blast was released towards the butler.

This time, Adam was not holding back. After all, the opponent that he was facing was already a rank ahead of him. So, if he held back, then, there was nothing that he was going to do to this person.

Of course, he did not actually stop at that. Instead, after launching that attack, he entered into the rage form. And the moment that he activated this skill, his eyes turned blood red. At the same time, a red aura suddenly surrounded his body.

This red aura was kind of possessing a greater intensity as compared to the one that had appeared before during the time that Adam was using this skill.

At the same time, the amount of killing intent that was surrounding his body was also so thick that even in the surroundings that were filled with killing intent, he was actually capable of standing out.

After activating the rage form, the amount of damage that he could deal had actually been increased by three times. And, the moment that this skill activated, Adam used bull rush to charge towards Hanson.

When he got closer, he used reckless slash while at the same time activating tyrannical strength. The moment that he activated tyrannical strength, his strength was increased by two times. As for the reckless slash, he was capable of dealing 200% damage.

With the activation of all the skills at the same time, Adam’s strength had already gone way past the limit of the silver rank. Right now, he was capable of competing against those at the golden rank.

Adam was not the only one who had gone all out. Instead, even Olivia was doing the same. She had activated an ice beam. And at the same time, she launched hail and blizzard towards Hanson.

Of course, she was not sparing the energy in her body at all. Instead, she was using everything that she had, making sure that the attacks that she launched were going to deal a lot of damage to Hanson.

She was not saving any energy because currently, the restoration pendant had already been recovered after it was used by Sarah to recover her energy. With it, she would be capable of recovering her full energy two times in this week.

Currently, the attacks that she was launching were way stronger as compared to the ones that she could launch before at the same level. This was all due to the fact that she was also using ice manipulation right now, enabling the attacks that she was launching to become way stronger.

At the same time, the freezing energy inside them was also high, and the moment that it landed on Hanson, it was going to be trying to penetrate into his blood system.

If the energy managed to enter his blood system, then, she was going to start attacking him from the inside. That was the advantage that she possessed due to the ice manipulation.

Julie had already disappeared from the spot. She had already blended with the shadows, waiting for an opportune moment for her to strike. She was in the golden rank indeed, but still, she was two levels behind Hanson.

Not only that, but she was also not focused on close combat. Instead, she was so focused on sneak attacks. So, she had to wait until the chance presented itself before she struck.

Diana was already launching a volley of arrows towards Hanson. But of course, as she attacked, she made sure to avoid Adam who was already charging forward. It was a good thing that this was not the first time that they were fighting together.

Other than her, just like Adam, Lenta was also attacking physically. So, he had to approach Hanson to attack.

Henry on the other hand had already summoned a fire dragon in the air. Currently, his power had been increased by the title that he possessed, the Supreme Slayer title. This title enabled him to have a 10% increase in power level as long as he faced an opponent that was a single level above him.

And, with each level that his opponent was higher than him, then, there was an increase of 10% in his combat strength. And currently, facing Hanson who was currently three levels above him, his power had actually been increased by 50%.

Of course, there was an extra 20%. Henry guessed that this 20% was coming in due to the fact that there was a difference in the ranks between the two of them. One of them was in the gold rank, while he on the other hand was in the silver rank.

The fire dragon was currently having one third of its body red in color. That was due to the fact that this part of its body was dominated by the red flames.

The dragon also charged towards Hanson. Other than that, Henry also began moving forward. At the same time, he began using the sword rain, fire arrows, and fireballs, attacking while still in a distance.

At this point, he was already holding the sword in his hand, the Raging Fire Flood sword. This was something that he had been trying to activate according to the system, but still, he was not capable of doing that. He was not sure about the mysteries that were hiding behind this sword, together with the one that was possessed by Olivia, the Frost Dominator sword.

At this point, the battlefield had suddenly become chaotic. The attacks that were being launched by the group possessed great damage capabilities that they could easily level down a city during the time before the apocalypse.

Facing the attacks that were coming towards him, Hanson did not actually panic. To say the least, he did not actually even react to the attacks that were being launched towards him. It was just as if the attacks did not exist to him at all.

Booooooom! Booooooom!

Several big explosions suddenly occurred. At the same time, a huge shockwave was created, blowing towards the surrounding areas. Due to the intensity of the explosion, the ground trembled for some time, and the nearby buildings collapsed.

Henry and the rest of the group were forced to retreat for a few meters backwards. Each and every one of them was actually stunned after what had happened.

Just before the attacks landed on Hanson, a barrier suddenly appeared around him. This barrier was black in color. Of course, that was not something that they really cared about. But instead, what they cared about was what had happened the moment that the attacks collided with the black barrier.

All the attacks exploded at the same time. But, the black barrier was actually not shaken at all. Other than just the small ripples that formed on the surface, nothing else happened.

Adam and Lenta, the two of them were the closest. For that reason, the moment that an explosion of the attacks occurred, the two of them were suddenly blown backwards. Even the attack that Adam was launching was forced to stop, as he was forced to retreat several meters backwards.

Although the two of them actually possessed strong physiques, they were still slightly injured by the explosion of the attacks. Of course, if it was normal, then, the attacks would not have exploded. But, due to the presence of the black barrier, the attacks had exploded, causing the two of them to suffer in the aftermath of the attacks.

This time, Henry and his group did not attack immediately. Instead, they began observing the black barrier. But, they had just began observing it when suddenly, the black barrier began cracking.
