Chapter 88 88 - Worm
Chapter 88 88 - Worm
A gigantic creature appeared, coming out of the explosion and looking toward the group. This monster looked like a crystal worm, its color was completely white, and it had heavy armor made of an extremely shiny material. The size was that of a building and a mouth with hundreds of sharp teeth, that monster roared with rage. The creature was wounded, with part of its body destroyed and a blue goo flowing down the side of its body.
Screaming in pain, the worm advanced towards the group, as if irritated by the presence of the invaders. Withdrawing his sword and shield, Damian activated a power-up skill and launched himself towards the crystal worm. The mana from his body flowed to his feet, allowing him to easily jump several meters and fall on top of the creature.
Roy and Ryan exchanged glances and affirming with their heads, they began their attacks from a distance. "I don't have many explosive arrows, so I'll use the piercing ones" then, a long iron arrow advanced towards the creature's wound. Before it got close to the monster, that arrow made a small explosion, launching the iron tip with amazing speed. That attack penetrated the monster's flesh, piercing right through to the innermost part of the ice worm.
"That won't have much effect. Save your special arrows for later," Kodiak said, as he transformed into the centaur form, ready to launch magical attacks from a distance. The redhead then put away his bow and pulled a kind of rifle from his bag, it was a mana weapon, just like the pistols Ryan was carrying.
Shouting with all his might, Damian used a mana barrier. He was trying to push that gigantic creature with the barrier, as if it were the punches of a shield. The attack was effective, causing that creature to retreat back a little. Then the pointed crystals that formed the body of that monster began to glow, the lights alternating like a Christmas tree. "BACK OF DAMIAN! GET AWAY!" Kodiak shouted with all his might, Ruri and Nivia channeled a dark one protecting the group.
The mouth of that worm began to glow with a blue light, until a beam of energy came out towards Tank. That energy was so cold that simple contact with the skin could completely eliminate any creature. Even with the two barriers and the fire elementals warming the group's body, it was still possible to feel the intensity of the cold of that attack.
*Wratchoo*
The panther sneezed and then began trying to scratch its own nose with one of its paws.
'I want a cat...' Ryan thought, as he watched that cute and terrifying giant cat.
Looking towards the ice worm, Ryan closed his eyes a little, trying to see that distant confrontation. Damian was withstanding the worm's direct attack, but he wasn't having much success.
The Tank's body was shaking, the ice was beginning to affect the movement of his legs. Even though his body was burning, he could still feel the intense cold taking over every piece of his armor. The frozen iron in his boots began to make contact with his skin, melting and burning his body.
Gasping and unable to take any more of this attack, tears began to flow from the warrior that so many called a prodigy. He could not move, and his shield was almost gone. The intensity of the attack was increasing, the lightning was intensifying, coming out the edges of the barrier as some of that icy mist approached Damian Smith's body.
Screaming with all the strength he had, the man finally admitted his true cowardly form and asked for help "I DOWN WANT TO DIE, PLEASE HELP ME". Kodiak's eyes widened at that request, with a small smile on his face, he spoke in a low voice "So he's lost that arrogance..." turning to the group, the Druid returned to human form.
But before Kodiak could make a suggestion, Ryan said his plan "This is a crystal worm from the cold realms. This monster's core is at the other end of its body, it's already wounded, so we can cast a spirit of Ruri into that thing's body and stun it. This monster doesn't look like the boss of the challenge so we have to be quick. Crossing his arms, Kodiak nodded.
"That monster is weakened, it shouldn't be able to sustain that continuous attack. Nivia, cast a stamina and healing buff on Damian. I'll put Roy on top of that mountain as a sniper, Ryan you are in charge of casting the spirit to the wound" Kodiak's words were charged with determination, it was evident to all the experience that young druid possessed.
The Shaman then removed her mask, revealing an extremely beautiful and angelic face, her green eyes were eye-catching. She then held the wooden mask out in front of her body. A kind of smoke-like goo was rising from the outside of the mask, it was a kind of transparent orange liquid. The goo was as transparent as the smoke coming out of the group members' breath.
When Shaman let go of the mask, that heap of orange energy had taken the form of a spirit. The creature had no legs, having only two arms and a body that descended into a syrup. In a way, this masked spirit resembled a Djinn.
The Shaman then knelt down and looking deep into the eyes of that wooden mask, she began to converse with that spirit. "You are going to follow that handsome man over there, then you are going to go inside through the bruise of an evil monster. Once you're inside, I want you to go burn everything you can, until you get to a gigantic energy stone. When you're done with that, I'll set you free, all right?" That Shaman didn't usually talk much, so hearing her voice was a surprise to everyone. The spirit confirmed by shaking his head and then standing in front of Ryan.
<That handsome man...>
'I'll assign her to the harem'
Then Ryan and Ruri exchanged glances. That Shaman's gaze was almost mesmerizing, her brown hair was messy, but she remained extremely delicate and beautiful. Her smile warmed Ryan's heart even more, while her green eyes signaled, that it was time to go.
So he activated his Demon Wings and grabbed the mask of that creature. The barrier disappeared and the worm's ice attack stopped, flying with all his speed, he advanced to that creature and cast the spirit into the wound.
"Good luck" He said, and surprisingly the spirit understood. Before digging inside the creature's body, he made a gesture with his arm, it was a kind of thumbsup.
