YM778.TV Chapter 156 - Help (10)
Since those two were forced to back down, Lily made many arrows rain down on the creature. The monster tried to sidestep and dodge them, but then he saw Billy and Natalie ready to strike. In the end, the monsters use their claws to repel the arrows that flew toward their vitals. The others only scratched its arms and legs.
"I bet those would make good swords," Billy said.
"You can worry about that later!" Natalie said.
The monster decided to use magic when it saw Billy\'s group surrounding him. Still, then two spinning spears and a massive fireball fell from the ceiling to hit the creature. The beast put the claws around its face to block the spears, and it still managed to fire several Water Balls upward and made Sarah\'s attack disappear. The spinning spears made his claws tremble all over, but in the end, the enemy threw them to the side with brute strength alone. Kate recovered them soon enough with her magic, but she still looked troubled. She went all out with that attack, after all.
The monster suddenly felt danger and then jumped forward, but he still felt a sharp pain on its right side. Without alerting anyone, Marie approached and attacked the monster with Lurk. The creature only felt blood lust at the last moment… Nevertheless, the wound began to bleed, but only for a short while.
Billy used Fierce Aura and then dashed toward the enemy and then used Light Spear, but the creature blocked the attack with one of its claws. Despite the boost, Billy couldn\'t overpower the beast. Still, he didn\'t stop there. He used Light Spear again and again until the enemy was only focusing on blocking his attacks. Some blood began to fall from the arms of the monster, but the creature didn\'t look that bothered by it. Besides, Billy\'s hands were swollen for using that skill at a high level so many times…
The next one to attack had been Natalie, and she used Swift strike. The enemy was caught off guard and had its arms moved away. The monster was left wide open, and Lily used that change to fire a barrage of arrows. Still, the creature decreased its speed by using a water wall, but that caused a problem for the monster; it prevented it from seeing another attack coming. Kate imbued her spears with wind magic, and they easily pierced the water wall. The beast reacted to the attack at the last moment and jumped to the side, but the two spears still pierced its left shoulder. The monster grunted in pain, even though only half of the tip of the spears pierced its body.
The monster pulled those out and threw them to the side… it really was a stupid creature if it was thinking that it was enough. In case Marie dashed toward the monster again and tried to slice its throat, the beast tried to do the same since it had a longer reach, it forced Marie to stop and lower her stance to dodge the attack. Still, she managed to attack the arms of the creature. She clicked her tongue in annoyance since she tried to cut the monster\'s wrists, but she missed them, and before she could try again, the beast tried to kick and forced her to fall back.
Things were being a lot more difficult than she recalled. The monster was way too versatile. Billy wondered if attacking the monster all at once would help, but considering its spells, that seemed like a bad idea. That being said, just waiting wasn\'t food either, and he soon confirmed that when the enemy fired some water spears toward them.
They were too close to dodge, so they used their weapons to block it. While they succeeded, the weapons trembled for quite a while due to the impact. Such was the strength of those… Billy looked toward the backline and seemed that they were fine. Sarah protected them by emerging from the ground an earth wall. It seemed that even the weird brick was considered earth…
Nevertheless, Billy noticed that the spears were quite strong because the water around them moved like the blades of a chainsaw. It was an application that Billy never thought of. Still, it would only be useful on certain magic projectiles and weapons.
The monster decided to use the spears again since that attack forced everyone to recover for a short while. Still, Billy bombarded the beast with a wind sphere and prevented the creature from focusing and casting. The monster didn\'t have time to block those, so it grunted in pain when its flesh was torn apart in the places he had been hit…
Using Fierce Aura and imbuing their weapons with magic would drain their mana pretty fast, so they were avoiding doing that. However, dragging out the fight at that rate wouldn\'t help them either. They all reached the same conclusion, and they also decided to take their chances.
After doing that, Billy charged and used Light Spear. The guardian ground while looking at its right arm being thrown in the opposite direction.. A single-arm block worked before, but it wouldn\'t work again… Natalie dashed and aimed for the monster\'s head with Swift strike, and while the beast blocked it, it left itself wide open, and Alexander stabbed the creature from the side.
