Chapter 779: Soloist [Part 1]
Villain Ch 779. Soloist [Part 1]
Father^Alex and Greatest Healer sprang into action without hesitation. They summoned forth their Barrier skills in response to Allen’s instructions. With a wave of their hands, two additional transparent barriers materialized before them, forming a protective wall that stretched across the clearing in the middle of the haunted forest.
However, instead of positioning the barriers in the same manner as before, Father^Alex and Greatest Healer opted to line them up in the center of the clearing, leaving narrow gaps on either side between the barriers and the towering trees that loomed nearby.
The strategic placement of the barriers created a blockade that effectively divided the space and created a funnel-like passage for the approaching monsters.
Arcana furrowed his brow in confusion, his expression reflecting his uncertainty about Allen’s plan. With a skeptical tone, he voiced his concerns, questioning whether the gaps would be sufficient to thwart the monsters’ advances.
"I bet they could still get through them," Arcana asked, his frown deepening as he struggled to grasp the logic behind Allen’s strategy. Although the gaps were narrow, there was still a possibility that the monsters could breach the barriers and continue their pursuit.
Allen, however, remained calm and composed in the face of Arcana’s skepticism. "Yes, but that’s the goal," Allen explained, his voice steady and assured. "We just need to concentrate on those two directions," he continued and gestured toward the gaps between the barriers, indicating their intended purpose.
Red_King’s quick understanding of Allen’s plan prompted him to take charge and swiftly divide the group into two teams, each assigned to handle one of the gaps in the barriers. With a confident demeanor, he outlined the composition of each team.
"Then we will divide into two groups," Red_King declared, his voice resolute as he outlined the distribution of manpower. "Me, Arcana, Father^Alex, and Bored Hunter will handle the right one. Godlike, Valkyrie, and Greatest Healer will handle the left," he announced, his words carrying an air of authority as he assigned each member their designated task.
However, Allen was quick to raise objections to the proposed division, expressing concerns about the effectiveness of the teams’ compositions in combat.
"You guys will need Valkyrie on your side," Allen interjected, his voice laced with conviction as he addressed Red_King directly. "Bored Hunter’s damage isn’t that strong, and you’re a hybrid. Your damage is not optimal," he pointed out, highlighting the potential shortcomings of the designated team for the right gap. "If the barrier breaks before you can clear them, we’ll be doomed.
We only have a few seconds to kill one monster before another one comes," he emphasized, underscoring the urgency of the situation and the critical need for a balanced and effective combat strategy.
Arcana’s disbelief was palpable as he processed Allen’s assessment of the situation. While Allen’s track record of facing challenges head-on had earned him a measure of respect from the group, the prospect of confronting such a formidable threat with insufficient firepower was undeniably daunting.
"Are you serious?" Arcana questioned, his voice tinged with uncertainty as he grappled with the implications of Allen’s analysis.
"Yes." Allen’s decisive affirmation signaled his unwavering commitment to the plan, and he wasted no time in delegating tasks to ensure the success of their strategy. Then, he directed his attention to Greatest Healer.
"Just concentrate on buffing me and create another barrier if the previous one almost breaks, okay?" Allen directed, his tone firm yet reassuring as he conveyed his reliance on the healer’s support.
Greatest Healer, recognizing the gravity of the situation and the significance of their collaboration, responded affirmatively to Allen’s directives, his tone reflecting a sense of determination and readiness to fulfill his role in the impending conflict.
"Okay," he acknowledged, his voice echoing with resolve.
The werewolves closed in on the group. Their numbers may have been fewer than before, but their ferocity remained undiminished. With a primal instinct driving them forward, they surged towards the narrow gap between the barriers, their snarls echoing through the air as they sought to breach the defensive line and confront their prey.

Despite the limited space, the monsters pressed on with relentless determination, their muscular forms contorting as they attempted to force their way through the constricted opening. Each creature vied for dominance, their movements fueled by a mixture of hunger and aggression as they sought to overpower their adversaries and claim their prize.
The gap may have been narrow, but it proved to be a formidable obstacle for the werewolves to overcome. Hindered by the confines of their surroundings, they were forced to navigate the tight space one by one, their progress impeded by the sheer density of their numbers and the limited maneuverability afforded to them.
"Agility, Holy Blessing, Protection," Greatest Healer used his buff skills on Allen.

Allen stood resolute in front of the narrow gap, his gaze fixed firmly on the monstrous figure that loomed before him. The werewolf’s roars reverberated through the air. Its primal fury was unmistakable.
With its claws poised for attack and its eyes locked onto Allen with unwavering intensity, the werewolf made its intentions clear as it sought to breach the barrier and lay waste to its adversaries. However, Allen remained undaunted.
In a swift and calculated motion, Allen drew a pair of knives from his belt, his movements fluid and precise as he launched them toward the monster’s eyes with unerring accuracy. With his keen senses and honed reflexes, Allen aimed for the creature’s most vulnerable points, seeking to blind it and hinder its ability to retaliate. Its eyes.

The knives found their mark, and the werewolf’s roar intensified, its fury reaching a fever pitch as it recoiled from the sudden onslaught. Yet, even as it thrashed and raged in response to the attack, it couldn’t reach Allen.
*Note: Since Allen only uses normal knives, the damage isn’t too deep.
