《New Path》Chapter 14 - Anomaly

We didn't have to wait too long that the next attack was already starting, the birds after going a little high in the sky they came back at the dogs, and after being enough close to the dogs about 3 meters they landed on each dog using the falling weight they pierced the skin dogs using their sharp claw, the called on the ground taken by surprise by the new attack.

"let's go now it's our chance "

I told them to wait 10 seconds we formed our group like before but this time hector was next to me like always, we separated each other about 2 meters to have enough space when we will fight and after we saw that they were fighting each other.

I choose to attack one of the dogs who was more on the border of the street with the buildings facing our back we didn't need to worry to be encircled by them.

And when we were about 1 meter from him I looked at Edward and nodded noticing he responded and the two of us dashed at the dogs while Lisa and hector took our place to protect the others, when I was almost next to the dog I raised my shield and used it for make the dog fall to the ground I aimed at his hinder leg and pushed him to the ground.

when I noticed that the dog falling I stopped pushing him and used my sword to attack his belly and I continued by piercing his eyes at the same time reaching his brain instantly he tried to howl but die before even before understanding what happened to him.

I could felt the energy entering my body and I felt that the energy entering my body was stronger than the rat we killed and I saw a screen appear in front of me informing me that I killed a common dog I just looked at it for one second before making it disappear.

at the same time, Edward used the same method as me and cut the dog head separating it from his, and just after we killed the two dogs some of the dogs who weren't attacked by the birds charged at us.

" Emily, Sarah attack them now, and look at the sky for any birds attacking us "

hearing the two girls hearing us the two girls attacked two dogs who were coming while I charged one of the dogs but this time hector and the other also following us closer waiting for an opportunities to strike they were just behind us since there were more dogs coming at us they seemed not caring for the birds who were attacking them at the same time but the bird couldn't grasp the dog and make enough injuries for wound them seriously.

I could see also some of the birds changing their target for us so I grasped tightly my shield preparing myself for the incoming fight and even before I could attack the dog who was not far from I saw a shadow of one bird coming toward me, I was about to turn my shield to block him but it wasn't necessary as an arrow passed above my head piercing the bird's neck falling on the ground a little away behind me.

So I dodged but it was a mistake the dog who was coming at me took this chance even if he wasn't next to me I saw him suddenly increase his speed and jumped at me his mouth wide open I could smell the odor of blood and flesh from it.

but even if I know I was in danger I was strangely calm I used my shield to push his mouth aside letting his neck for me to attack, so I took this chance and sliced his neck making blood flowing out on me I used my shield to block some blood to block my view the body of the dog fall to the ground I stepped aside this time enough to keep my balance while running.

and when I looked around me I saw that the other was already fighting one beast each and two dogs was trying to attack Emily and behind us but Fred who was fighting noticed it turned his back from the dog he was fighting, I was about to warn him but Emily shot two arrows quickly at the dog neck and eyes.

I didn't have the time to focus on them, more dogs were coming at us so I advanced giving them some time to deal with the one they were fighting I was sure they could handle them at least I hoped so, advanced about one meter letting enough space for all of us to fight.

At the same time, the dog who was shot twice growled toward Emily but still continued to go for Fred even with the two arrows in his neck and eye and was going to continue to charge at Fred but Philip who saw that used his sword to cut one of the dog legs he was fighting but at the same time the dog hit him on his shield but he was able to defend himself against the sudden attack.

after he was able to deal with it he killed the dog who was to the ground and quickly charged at the dog who was going for the dog but he was stopped by Emily.

" let me deal with him you go help hector we should be fine here "

after saying that she took her sword who was on her waist and charged toward the dog, Philip was surprised for one second but quickly gathered his spirit and turned to help Hector.

the fight was with the dog and the bird was starting to be dangerous Edward and Sarah instead of charging one after another like Chris and hector choose to attack at the same time closely next to each other and pushed each dog who was in front of them to the ground and let those behind them deal with them.

But there was some time where they weren't careful and one of the dogs bites on Lisa's leg making her almost fall but she quickly stabbed the dog head making him release his grasp, tears were falling on her cheek the pain was unbearable she was sweating but she gritted her teeth and endured it.

' i don't feel it at all, it's just a bite I can handle it '

she kept repeating that in her head to not think of it, but the more she fought the more her legs were hurting her.

Edward noticed that she was starting to lose focus sometimes and quickly called Sarah who was behind while they all used one car as a barrier to at least prevent dogs to surround them.

" Sarah can you heal her quickly we can't stay here for too long Chris group are starting to advance further "

- "I am not sure if it would be able to heal her enough before we are surrounded but I will do quickly "

Sarah was breathing heavily she didn't stop to use her energy to launch spells at birds and dogs but she only used a small quantity of energy making her able to use them continually, so she still had enough energy left to heal Lisa lag.

" be quick we won't be able to stop them for long, chriiiiiiiiiiiis we need help here "

he said to Sarah and shout as loud he can since the howl from the dog was so loud that they couldn't hear anything else except for birds to scream, he know it was dangerous to shout like that but they didn't have another option they were in a bad position.

He was lucky that Emily who was focusing on the surroundings of the group was paying enough attention to see that they stopped advancing with them, and called Philip.

" Philip we need to go help claire group they are surrounded by dogs "

she wasn't able to know how many dogs she killed by now the fight started about five minutes before but with the bird, in the sky, it seemed like it was ten to fifteen minute if she wasn't wrong and she was absorbed in the fight not daring to be a little careless like before, she stayed enough close of the group to help them not wanting to be too far if she needed help too.

" ok I will tell them about that "

" Chris come back we need to help the other group "

he looked at Chris who was covered in blood and with some wound on his body and pierced one dog head who was on the ground with his sword, and when he killed this one a bird attacked him he raised his shield protecting himself and slashed one of wings of the bird making him fall and Chris finished him quickly and turned his head toward Phil who was calling him.

Fred and John were dealing with one too, they were able to adapt to the Shema of attack of the dog and could somehow dodge them when they suddenly increase their speed or change sometimes the way they attack, and after one or two minutes they killed them, and they noticed that Chris who was in front of them was now coming back.

they were surprised when they saw all the wound on his body, they weren't able to make a difference between his blood and the blood of the evolved beast, but they were starting to feel exhausted it's been twenty-minute since they started to fight and they needed to focus on the ground and the sky and with the fact that some of those dogs were stronger than the others, they faced before they could guess that there was some level in the group of dogs but they couldn't see the difference between level 1 and 2 before they fight them.

" ok guys we should not stop moving it's not because they aren't coming at us that we are safe "

I told them I have trouble catching my breath so I stopped talking, then continued I looked at the last group of dogs and birds who were fighting each other too busy to attack us otherwise they will be attacked by numerous birds, at first they could handle them but after we started to kill more of them it was hard for them to fight.

But it was also the same for us since the bird had the advantage to fly and some of them separated from the main and attacked us from time to time.

" so what's is happening "

- " Lisa group need help quickly they seem to have some trouble, they stopped to advance with us and I can't see clearly them I just heard Edward calling you "

hearing that I started to worry that something happened to Lisa and wanted to rush directly there but I stopped myself and focused on myself.

" ok we don't have time to make a plan so we will just charge inside the group of dogs"

- " but......"

John wanted to refute my idea but I didn't have the time or wanted to talk about it

" We don't have another option, will be in front with hector Emily to the middle while the two of us protect our back "

I quickly told them the formation and started to advance toward where I could see a group of dogs fighting with Edward and the others.

they only sighed knowing that they can't convince him and followed him.

they were about one meter from the group when they started to attack the dog surrounding the others, Emily shot one arrow to the thigh of one dog making him howl in pain, and turned his back for only met another arrow directly piercing his eyes and entering his head.

everyone was shocked by the power of this arrow but didn't think too much they charged at one dog for each of them and started to fight them they were still unable to kill the dog easily but they could still block make letting the time for others to help them finish him even if sometime they could kill the dog by paying the price to get bitten on their arms or legs.

And for Edward and his group, it was the only chance they were waiting after dealing with the remaining dog they helped to finish the last dogs.

" So what happened to you that makes you surrounded by dogs "

I asked them even if I could see Lisa being healed I wasn't sure maybe she was hurt during the fight of now.

" Lisa got bitten by a dog and when we took a chance to heal her, we were already surrounded that's when I called you guys "

I nodded and came close to Lisa she was trying to stand up

" Are you ok now, do you need help "

- "I am ok don't need help, it's ok !!! "

I was surprised when I saw her reaction she almost screamed but remembered that there were still dogs left and stopped herself.

"I am sorry it's just the pain which is starting to ache so much and I don't want to take the group down so I just need to catch my breath and I would be fine, Sarah already healed so I should be fine look "

she knows he was only worried about her so she gave him a smile and showed him that she was ok.

" so let's finish those last ones and I don't think it will be so easy like those we fought with now so be careful to stay close to each other "

" shouldn't we wait and see what will happen "

claire was the one to suggest waiting but I didn't know why but when I looked at one of the dogs fighting I could feel the energy around him.

" The energy around one of those dogs there doesn't stop to increase the more he was wounded and it healed him faster each time I am not sure what is special about this one but I think we should kill him while he is occupied by the birds, can't you feel it too "

I looked at Claire, Lisa, and john and they frowned when they noticed what I mean after looking toward the dogs I pointed.

" Yeah this one is too strange better kill him now "

they agreed with me and we took a quick break before advancing this time slowly not wanting to be noticed even if we were sure that they already noticed us.
