Welcome To Arcana 9 Surving A Pack Attack?

He turned and quickly scaled the tree. He went to one of the higher branches to avoid their jumping capability. To his surprise that wasn't going to happen.

The creatures approached the base of the tree and tusks protruding from their backs that extended over their shoulders and punched into the tree. Radley's jaw nearly dropped when he saw this. They did a weird swinging motion to climb the, but they were extending faster than Radley antic.i.p.ated.

Radley surveyed his surroundings. His axe is broken and the headpiece was still lodged into the dead beast on the ground. He still had his shaft but its attack according to the Diff system registered a poultry one. His attack on his fists was higher than that. He looked at the axe head still lodged in the dead creature's neck. It registered a three, but it was over there and not in his hands.

He shrugged. If he was going to go out, it will be in a blaze of glory. He took a deep breath and pounced onto one of the creatures. At the same time, he gave a battle cry. While he was falling towards the creature his arm started to glow in a yellowish aura. He grabbed the creature by the throat and crashed it into the ground. The crash was so hard that it created a crater, killing the creature instantly. A popup appeared. 400 Invo points. 2 Diff points. New skill attained: Power slam (This skill can be transferred to weapons to drastically increase the damage output of the weapon)

The Diff system chimed up, "Achievement earned: Self-taught. Congratulations on your first self-taught skill. 2 Diff points earned."

He had no time to be impressed with himself. He rolled off the now-dead creature and ran towards the other carca.s.s that still had the axe head stuck in it. Radley quickly looked around and saw a creature leaping towards him. He did a rolling dive to avoid the incoming attack. He attempted to roll towards the carca.s.s and succeeded, but more creatures pounced towards him. He did another rolling dive and at the same time ripped the axe-head from the dead beast's neck. Two creatures pounced at him at the same time. Radley did a twist on the spot and slammed with his axe hilt into one knocking him off trajectory and used his ability combined with the axe-head and slammed it into the other creature's forehead. Remarkably the axe head was still in one piece. It killed the creature. Another popup: 425 Invo points. 2 Diff points. He got hit in the side and went sailing through the air. He hit the ground, hard. It felt like all of his bones were broken. He checked his health. There was a sliver left. His stamina wasn't looking any better.

He grabbed his water bottle which was still surprisingly intact after all the action he had gone through. He drank the contents hoping it would help with his stamina. Even if only a little bit. To his surprise, it went up by quite a bit. The beasts were hesitating to attack by now and slowly walked around looking for an opportunity. Radley had his back against a tree. He was eyeing every one of them waiting for a moment.

One pounced as Radley. He jammed a foot into its neck and grabbed the arm and activated his ability one last time and crashed it into the tree behind him. A sickening crack could be heard as splinters and wood blasted out of the tree. Another popup: 434 Invo points. 2 Diff points. Radley tried one last tactic. Intimidation. He roared at the top of his lungs and tried making himself look bigger. The creatures started to back off. Not long after the creatures started to run away one by one.

Radley collapsed to the ground. He was exhausted. This survival lifestyle just wasn't working for him. He had no idea how far he was from Argoon. Diff chimed in, "Congratulations, multiple achievements achieved. Slayer of stronger: You successfully killed a beast and survived long enough to claim the reward. Survivor of a Powerful pack: You survived an onslaught of beasts that were at least one or more levels higher than you. Multi achievement: Achieve more than one achievement at a single time. The rewards are as follows."

A heads up displayed the results:

Slayer of stronger: +5 Diff points

Survivor of a Powerful pack: +500 Invo points

Multi achievement: +2 Diff points for every achievement at the including this one. Total: +6 Diff points

Whoa! Now he could say he was a happy boy. But his work was not done yet. The first thing he needed was some much-needed rest, but he needed to be safe. He collected the creatures and dragged them and placed them together under a blue-leaf tree.

He climbed into the tree himself after he removed the axe head. He broke off a piece of a vine which he wrapped around himself and the base of the tree. He just hoped that no creature would eat his kills during his rest. He went through his skills to see what he could buy with his Diff points. He saw something called toxin detection which he bought for 5 Diff points. He looked into upgrading his instant reaction but saw it cost 50 points. Holy c.r.a.p, upgrades were expensive.

He decided to spare his points, but something else caught his attention. Upgrade of life generation to level two? Life generation. He carefully looked at his health bar. It was indeed higher. That literally meant he was healing at an incredible rate. Radley smiled, "Well, Diff. I take my words back. You are pretty d.a.m.n useful."

Radley closed his eyes to get some rest as he dreamt of dreamless sleep.
