Interdimensional Farming in Another World

Chapter 98 Attack 2

?

Three monstrous abominations, comprised of mangled flesh, bones, and blood, loomed ominously before the elder. Their grotesque appearance, resembling a body that was turned inside-out induced waves of nausea in the onlookers.

Recognising the imminent threat posed by the towering fifteen-foot monstrosities, the elder hastily retreated a few steps. It was only a matter of time before they would unleash their destructive fury. Even he had no means of controlling them. The rampaging monsters are uncontrollable to even the elder and the evil organisation. So, he made a quick escape from them. 

Alex watched this from afar. And the sight of the monster made all the hair on his body standstill. Not because of fear, but because of pure disgust. 

'It looks like some animal had chewed on it and then spat it out. Utterly repulsive and disgusting…Why do these guys want to be something worse than shit for the evil organisation.' Alex thought as he pinched his nose in disgust. He didn't know if the monster was smelly, but he felt like it would be by just looking at it.

Although the monster looked humanoid, it had no resemblance to a human. And most importantly, the creature bore no facial features except a partially decayed-looking nose and a mouth brimming with razor-sharp teeth. In the place of its eyes, it has some smoothed-out convex holes with some twisted skin. And the ears had completely disappeared leaving no sign of them ever being present. 

Alex possessed basic knowledge of the monster's behaviour and anticipated its next move. Having witnessed a similar monster's rampages, he was expecting predictable actions from them.

'The initial target for the monster would be vulnerable creatures harbouring mana within their bodies. It would kill and consume them before proceeding to attack stronger creatures. This process served as a means for the creature to enhance and refine its form. Even the first elder had engaged in such behaviour, understanding that relying solely on the biological matter derived from a single human body would not suffice for achieving its optimal state. The monster would try to consume everything and anything it could to grow to a level of tier 5 warrior in strength.' Thinking that Alex looked around.

'There are still some individuals with no fear scattered around the area. Perfect snacks for the monster.'

"Sigh!" 

After transforming itself into a fifteen feet tall humanoid monster, they stood up. Raised their heads and began sniffing the air.

The monster was finding their targets. They had impeccable senses to find mana signatures in their surroundings. So, even without eyes, they could know the pinpoint location of mana in the surroundings. The moment Alex saw this, he prepared for battle. 

With slight disappointment, Kalina stated. "I don't believe the elder has any intentions of negotiating with us." Her tone conveyed a sense of urgency. "We must eliminate the monsters before they amass strength. We cannot permit them to prey upon innocent!" Kalina's voice resonated with intensity as she urgently called out to the nearby tier 4 warriors, forcing them to take action.

And so, the battle commenced. The elder discreetly slipped away from the scene, having unleashed the monsters upon Thira. Kalina struggled to contain her anger as she observed his departure. Nevertheless, her focus remained fixed on the monstrous adversaries before her. She reluctantly let him escape knowing all too well that he would return for revenge. 

The icy wings behind Kalina spread as she flew towards one of the monsters. She created a giant ice spear in her hand before stabbing it at the monster that was sniffing the air. The warriors behind her followed suit, splitting up to attack the remaining monsters.

Although Kalina's attack was quick and precise, the monster was much nimbler than she anticipated. It dodged her attack effortlessly while sliding to the side. It knew Kalina's attack posed danger and began to avoid her.

Similarly, the other monsters also avoided the warriors that were attacking them. They ran around on all fours hugging the ground like a feral beasts while avoiding attacks, searching for a chance to consume a mana-rich animal. 

And the closest thing that they could find, which was weaker than them was the white-robed man, Alex. So, immediately, they turned towards Alex. Their nimble but muscular form sprinted across the sandy beach as they closed in on him.

Escape was not a viable option for Alex. If he were to flee from the oncoming monsters, they would likely disperse and indiscriminately attack the innocent people in the vicinity. So, he stood without moving an inch.

Alex had foreseen the monsters' actions even before they initiated their attack. He was well aware that they would single him out as their target. He was patiently waiting for this chance. Unlike in the past, he was prepared to deal with them. 

Within seconds, the opened mouth of the monster closed in on Alex. They were ready to tear him apart limb by limb and eat him. 

Just as the monsters were about to bite him, Alex swiftly teleported away, leaving behind a parting gift. From beneath the ground, twenty ice spells blossomed, enveloping the creatures. Like a cascade of liquid nitrogen, a liquid encapsulated and solidified their body, rendering them motionless. Frozen in place, they were unable to even twitch a muscle.

Fortunately, due to Alex's quick thinking, he was able to temporarily stop the monsters' rampage. 

As the ice spells took effect, an ethereal mist materialised, a result of the extremely frigid and swiftly evaporating gas. The spell employed by Alex involved compressed air, which rapidly expanded upon contact with the target material, thereby significantly lowering its temperature. While relatively slower in comparison, this spell had a significant advantage over any other. Even if the monsters were to gain consciousness, they would have to crush their solidified body part to move. So, it could buy Alex the much need time. 

An even more remarkable aspect was how Alex managed to precisely strike the monster, despite its ability to dodge attacks from tier 4 warriors. The answer lay in his ability to create twenty ince spells instantaneously, concealed beneath the ground. This strategic manoeuvre effectively deceived the senses of the monsters, enabling Alex to catch them off guard. 

Now that the monster was temporarily disabled, Alex and the other warriors didn't let this chance pass by. They channelled their energy out of their body to create the strongest attack they could use.

A giant shockwave blasted to the surroundings as the condensed energy rippled across the space. 

In response to the formidable monsters, the members of the void fish tribe employed their space rend skill, capable of cleaving the targeted space in half. Ordinarily, striking a nimble, moving target such as the monsters would have posed a challenge. However, this change in circumstances provided them with the opportunity to unleash their most potent and destructive skill, capable of slicing through solid steel with ease.

Meanwhile, the ice phoenix tribe, including Kalina, channelled a formidable surge of freezing current into the air, enveloping the monsters. This intense cold penetrated their very core, rendering them even more vulnerable to the impending onslaught of physical attacks that would rain down upon them.

Simultaneously, the remaining tier 4 warriors from various scattered tribes unleashed a barrage of long-distance attacks, employing a diverse range of techniques to weaken the monsters from afar.

Meanwhile, Alex who was a kilometre in the sky was falling with a giant metal sphere weighing ten tons strapped to his waist. He tried to maintain balance while being seated on the metal sphere. Like everyone else, he too had his attack planned out to kill the monsters for good.

The metal ball accelerated due to the planet's gravity while battling with the friction of the air. It heated up like a meteor in its descent threatening to cook Alex's ass. Alex had to spend extra energy to reinforce his ass and prevent it from becoming the next meal of the monsters.

With precision and coordination, the attacks rained down upon the monsters one by one. The chilling energy emanating from the ice phoenix tribe's assault permeated the creatures' bodies, gradually weakening their resilience. Subsequently, the void fish tribe's skilful strikes cleaved the monsters in half, further fragmenting their already vulnerable forms. The remaining tier 4 warriors seized the opportunity, launching powerful attacks that hammered into the dismembered flesh of the creatures.

Finally, it was Alex's turn to act. With unwavering focus, he targeted the monster with a colossal metallic sphere, propelling it towards the creature with immense force. Simultaneously, he swiftly teleported himself into the interdimensional farm, evading any potential aftermath. The combined efforts of all the warriors ensured the monsters met their ultimate demise.

"BOOOOM!!!!" 

The thunderous sound shook the world. The sound from the attack travelled to Thira, resonating inside the city. And the location where the monster stood frozen was completely decimated. 

Other than a giant crater and a dust cloud, nothing was visible outside.
