Oleg had no more reinforcements to wait for, and any further delay would only prove more disadvantageous to the members of The Quest Guild.
His sole hope now was that Banning could lead the others to break through the encirclement of the demon rats. If they could concentrate their power on Splurt, there might still be a chance to turn the tide.
—(Lord Banning, I wouldn't have made it here tonight without your strategy...)
—(I believe you can bring me another surprise!)
Oleg sprinted with all his might.
His aged body was no longer as valiant as it once was, but Splurt, his adversary, was not faring much better.
When it came to speed, Oleg, a professional mercenary, still had the advantage!
As the distance narrowed to less than ten meters, Oleg prepared to use his skill but noticed that Splurt's cane struck the ground unnaturally. He instantly understood that the old man was up to some trick and leaped into the air with a single kick!
"STOMP—!"
