Retreat!

After the D grade monster shows up, continues gunshot are heard. Naturally, when the apocalypse first appears, normal bullet cant harm the monster. But after almost a decade of continues research, people starts to invent a new bullet made out of monster carcassess that are able to injured monster.

"This cant be, thats not a normal D grade monster!"

Worry can be seen on the faces of the soldier, not because of the size of the monster but because of the skills it had. It had 4 skills!

Monster can be graded based on the skills they had. A normal F grade monster had only one skill. While an E grade monster had two skills. And, a normal D grade monster should have only three skills, but the monster that the soldier are now fighting had four skills which confuse them all.

The soldier are keenly observing the monster, looking for the reason why. As they are looking through it, a loud voice from their commander are heard.

" Mutated! Its a mutated monster! "

As the voice rang through their ears, their already gloomy face had become more gloomy again. A mutated monster means that its a monster which are stronger than its keen, and can be labeled as stronger than the same level monster. They contains one more skill and a more enhance body and skills.

" Fight! Fight till your last breath! Kill as many as you can, I will distract the D grade monster in the meantime! " said the commander.

" No, you cant do that, you cant take that monster alone! ", one of the soldier said with face full of worries.

" I know, but Im the only C grade hunter here! Im the only one who can distract it! "

" But...."

" No more buts! This is a command! Kill as many monster as you can, while Im distracting it! ", retaliate by the commander.

" ...Yes Sir!! "

As the commander finish giving his command, he jump out of the wall and rush through the middle of the monster horde where the D grade monster are located. Normally, a C grade hunter can fight and kill a normal D grade monster easily, but in case of a mutated one, a normal C grade hunter cant kill it alone.

And in case of the commander, he lost his companion pets years ago, so his fighting capability was at its lowest.

There are some cases when a hunter can fight even a monster two level above them, but thats so rare as they are those with potential, talent, skills and a great awakened attribute.

As the commander got nearer to the monster, it suddenly burst fire from its mouth which are then easily avoided by the commander through his skill.

The commander attack back with C grade lightning bolt that comes out from his hand. Two lighting bolt comes nearer and nearer to the monster, but as it was only a one meter away from the monster, an oval shape shield appeared out of nowhere and easily block the lighting bolt.

The commander got shock upon seeing it, but thats only for a minute as he dont want to be distracted in the middle of the fight and lose focus. He attack again, but this time, a dark cloud starts forming on the top of the monster.

The skill that he just used are B grade skill called ' Thunder Storm' and also brings a large amount of damage to the same level monster, the only downfall of it was that upon activating the skill, he have to wait for 1 minute for it to finish forming the clouds and for the thunder to strike.

This one minute may seem short to other people, but when on fight, a one minute difference may decide who the winner of the fight will be.

As he was waiting for the skill to activate, the monster attack again with a large firestrike, which he easily avoided again with his skill called 'Air steps'.

' 1 second... 20 seconds.... 30 seconds... 59 seconds...'

" Now! "

After one minute, the skill now start activating as 5 thunders starts to decend from the now 5 meters dark cloud above the monster.

The commander enjoyed upon seeing the strike got nearer to the monster, thinking that its the end. Since the skill can easily injured even a C grade monster as it was a B grade skill, a D grade monster on the front of him was supposed to die from it.

But as the skill got nearer again, a golden oval shield appeared out of nowhere, it looks the same as the shield that the monster used earlier, only this time it was golden in color.

The commanders' face got worried at the appearance of the shield. It was the last skill of the monster, and since it used this shield instead of the shield it used earlier, it only means that its confident on the capability of this shield.

As the thunder storm finally reach the monster, the shield block the thunder that is aiming at the head of the monster. Since the shield was only of a plate size, it cant block all the thunder that are descending.

Various injuries can be seen on the body of the monster, as all the thunder hits its body with only its head suffering no injuries.

This injuries can be considered fatal, and the monster can die from blood loss over time.

The soldier cheers upon seeing the injuires on the body of the monster, but that cheers stops suddenly as the voice of the commander rang again through their ears.

" Retreat! Retreat! Immediately retreat! "
