The Goblin's Leveling System!

Chapter 176: What A Group Of Heroes Are Capable Of (10)

[Monster's Abode, Near The Boundary]

[4 minutes had passed]

Alex's PoV:

My mana was now at 50% full so I should be able to assist Pedonar and the others if they weren't able to defeat the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

I opened my eyes and checked to see how Pedonar and the others were faring against the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

I found out and realized that I should have not worried about Pedonar and the others since they were doing well against the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

The level 77,000 great forest spirit was in bad condition since it had lost both of its hands. The level 77,000 great forest spirit wasn't able to regenerate the limbs it had lost due to Pedonar's death mana that was corrupting the wound of the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

I saw two hands on the ground that was certainly from the level 77,000 great forest spirit and instead of the level 77,000 great forest spirit's severed hands being green-colored, it was now covered in death mana which resulted in it turning into black.

The level 77,000 great forest spirit was forced to attack Pedonar, Sophie and Aileen by using the trees and grass from the surroundings instead of using its grass sword due to not being able to wield anything.

The level 77,000 great forest spirit's control in its nature magic was drastically lowered because of losing its hands that acted like its personal wand or something like that.

Several sharp and durable tall blades of grass pursuit Pedonar, Sophie, and Aileen but the three of them easily managed to defend themselves by creating condensed mana weapons to deflect the sharp and durable tall grasses that were manipulated by the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

I noticed that Aileen was preparing for an all-out mana release attack towards the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

Aileen had previously gathered mana in the surroundings and stored the gathered mana in her body and mana pool.

She then transformed all of the gathered mana into dragonic mana and stored all 9f the dragonic mana in her mana pool while casting a dragonic spell in the process.

It took Aileen several minutes to finally start releasing the condensed dragonic mana in her body and now she was charging the dragonic mana in her body while aiming it towards the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

A small sphere of dragonic mana was generated between Aileen's two hands and the small sphere of dragonic mana was gradually becoming bigger as every second had passed by.

Pedonar and Sophie already knew what Aileen's intentions were so the two of them stalled the level 77,000 great forest spirit by assaulting the level 77,000 great forest spirit with magical attacks.

The level 77,000 great forest spirit was forced to either defend the magical attacks of Pedonar and Sophie using fortified wooden walls or receive the magical attacks head-on.

Pedonar attacked the level 77,000 great forest spirit using mana bullets that were filled with death attributed mana.

On the other hand, Sophie attacked the level 77,000 great forest spirit using condensed mana daggers that were filled with shadow attributed mana and thrown at the level 77,000 great forest spirit at high speed.

The level 77,000 was struggling to defend themselves from the attack of both Pedonar and Sophie. Although, the level 77,000 great forest spirit had yet to receive a fatal attack from Pedonar and Sophie's combined attack.

Aileen's condensed sphere of dragonic mana was now at the medium size and was at least half the size of a wrecking ball.

Pedonar and Sophie weren't troubled installing the level 77,000 great forest spirit so I decided not to step in the battle yet unless the situation was dire.

My mana was now at 60% full and my concentration was halved due to using half of it to spectate the battle of Pedonar, Sophie, and Aileen against the level 77,000 great forest spirit so my mana recovery speed wasn't at fast speed nor slow speed.

I was recovering mana by absorbing the mana in the surroundings at a decent pace so I wasn't worried about that but instead, I was worried about the possibility that Aileen somehow missed hitting the level 77,000 great forest spirit with her attack.

I had decided to catch the level 77,000 great forest spirit off-guard by attacking it with mana bullets that were coated with space attribute so that Aileen would be able to hit the level 77,000 great forest spirit using her condensed sphere of dragonic mana attack.

If things go haywire, I might need to step in the battle and support Pedonar and the others.

Killing the level 77,000 great forest spirit was the utmost priority since its level was the highest amongst the high-level monsters that our group had faced except for the three-horned horses.

Now that I had thought about it, where was the three-horned horse?

Aerin wasn't able to eliminate the three-horned horses that had wounded Axel but instead, she had prevented the three-horned horses from further harming Axel.

I was distracted in dealing with the high-level monsters that decided to fight against our group so the three-horned horse managed to slip from my attention.

The three-horned horses might have either retreated or hid in the forest to wait for all of the members of our group to run out of mana.

If it's that latter possibility, then all of us were completely screwed because Axel and the rest of the heroes weren't able to help us deal with the three-horned horse.

Satomi couldn't even act as bait for the three-horned horse if the three-horned horse decided to attack the members of our group due to Satomi being occupied in dealing with the huge tiger.

Distere was still resting on the ground while recovering his mana and energy. I used [Mana Sense] and saw the flow of mana and stored mana inside Distere so I was able to deduce the estimated amount of Distere's current amount of mana in his mana pool.

Distere might have at least 70% of his total mana and Distere was 2% ahead of me in terms of mana percentage.

But since I had more mana capacity than Distere, I already had at most 1.5 times Distere's current amount of mana in his mana pool.

Distere might be able to help me in helping Satomi defeat the huge tiger but not the three-horned horse.

Pedonar, Sophie, and Aileen's mana were already below 50% so even the three of them might not be able to defeat the three-horned horse.

If my intuition wasn't wrong, then the three-horned horse might be the strongest amongst all the high-level monsters that our group had faced off against.

Unless Axel had defeated the high-level monsters with the highest level amongst all the high-level monsters that our group had faced off against.

It was a possibility considering Axel's mana pool was almost depleted while some of the high-level monsters were either killed, slightly injured, or badly injured by Axel.

As I racked my brain of many possibilities that were connected with the three-horned horse, I decided to stop thinking for a while to rest my brain or I might suffer from a headache due to overthinking too much.

I decided to observe the battle of Pedonar, Sophie, and Aileen against the level 77,000 great forest spirit again to rest my brain.

Being an intelligent being was difficult since I needed to overwork my brain every time problem came up instead of using my fist to solve every problem that comes in my way like a muscle-head.

Axel might have assumed the position of team leader in the heroes party due to him possessing the required intelligence and management to become a team leader.

Although Axel's ethics was unscrupulous because of the damage in his brain and mental state, Axel was still intelligent enough to think of ways that would benefit the majority but at the price of sacrificing the minority.

I focused on the battle of Pedonar, Sophie, and Aileen against the level 77,000 great forest spirit and I found out that Pedonar, Sophie, and Aileen were slowly taking the upper hand against the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

Pedonar and Sophie did well in keeping the level 77,000 great forest spirit occupied and preventing the level 77,000 great forest spirit from finding out about the attack that Aileen was preparing against the level 77,000 great forest spirit.

One of the perks of dragonic mana was that it was less noticeable compared to all of the mana types even if the dragonic mana was high in quality and large in quantity.

That's one of the reasons why the level 77,000 great forest spirit wasn't alerted yet from the condensed sphere of dragonic mana that Aileen had been charging up.

The condensed sphere of dragonic mana that Aileen was charging up had reached the size of a wrecking ball so it's almost ready if I'm not mistaken.

I waited for Aileen to start aiming and releasing the condensed sphere of dragonic mana towards the level 77,000 great forest spirit so that I could distract the level 77,000 great forest spirit when Aileen's attack was launched towards the level 77,000 great forest spirit.
