Chapter 216 Things Going South
Chapter 216 Things Going South
A massive beast appeared from the underground and looked at the human and made weird noises.
No!!!
The savage men cried in their hearts as blood disappeared from their faces with their heart thumping, wanting to jump out of their chests.
They knew what those beasts are; They are their nemesis in the Rainstorm region. The Terra-Saw.
Nika and the genesis team frowned when they saw the massive beasts as this was the first time they would see a strange beast. Before everyone could process what was going on, the Terra-saw came out in multiple ways from the underground water and rushed toward its prey.
Ah!
A tiny cry of pain came right opposite the battlefield and everyone turned their heads.
Whoosh!
A silhouette jumped out of the water with a powerful deep cut on her chest. Who else could it be if not Lola.
Her cute little face glared in Robert and Mack's direction in hatred.
'How can she survive my attack?!' Robert thought in dismay while the Genesis team breathed a sigh of relief as a bright smile crept to their faces.
Mack smiled and released the pent burden on his chest. They planned to capture some men and use them as leverage to escape but who would have guessed Robert would do the opposite.
"I'll tell Uncle Justin that you attack me," Lola said as she moved toward the Genesis team with determination.
Growl!
Hearing the cry of the beasts, the people regained their bearings and looked at each other.
"Retreat!" The commander said with the last bit of strength as he was covered in blood from head to toe while some of his bone had been mangled under Nika's continuous pummeling.
Nika didn't dilly-dilly, he rushed toward the Genesis with his top. "Retreat"
Mack and Robert looked at each and realized their plan had gone south but could do nothing about it.
"Let go" Mack commanded the men that chose to follow him.
At once, the battlefield was divided into three groups. The savage men supported each other as they took the opposite direction, Mack and his men took the adjacent path, leading into some broken buildings.
As for the last group, they took the last only available option. Their west. Watching their prey escaping, the Terra-saw were furious and increased their speed.
In a couple of seconds, the street was filled with the appearance of the beast with cries echoing under the heavy downpour.
Even the Terra-saw were savage beasts that acted upon instinct. The higher grade among them controlled the lesser ones and divided their troop into three paths.
Ah!
A cry echoed from another part of the city as a body fell into the water, dying in red.
"Do you think you can escape from us? Hmm?" A hoarse voice in disdain as he looked at the girl fighting with his other men.
The girl only looked at her teammates for a second before she concentrated on her defending the attack. She was fighting two against one. She was a First Circle existence while her enemies were both in the First Circle and the Second Circle. Thus, making the battle a difficult one.
Now, with her teammate down, it is four against one. She gnashed her teeth with her wandering back and forth, looking for a way to escape her current predicament.
Bang!
She raised her shield in the nick of time to defend against a sneak attack. She grimaced and took a couple of steps back with a splash of water. Her shield trembles with her face pale.
'Are we going to fail to deliver the intel to the ark?' Despair filled her heart. No matter how unwilling she was. She couldn't escape from the encampment of the four enemies.
Just when all hope was lost, a golden light came from the water and a young man came out of the water, hovering in the air. The continuous heavy downpour avoided him as the golden light from the sky fell upon him.
No!!
Yes!!
'I knew it! We're from the Genesis ark. The chosen ones.' The girl cried and the despair in her eyes disappeared and was replaced with a will to survive.
The golden light only lasted for a couple of seconds and the young man landed inside the water without cursing a ripple. He looked at the four savages attacking the girl and a light smile appeared on his face. This was not just a smile. It was a smile of confidence.
Previously, he was only a First Circle Existence...everything changed with his breakthrough into the Second Circle.
'The heavenly mark is more powerful than we imagine. How did the king do it?' he thought for a moment before he shook his head and welcomed the incoming attack casually.
"Just fucking die!" A man with a huge axe appeared before the young man, trying to hack him into the two.
The powerful gust of wind from the attack came crashing into the face of the young man as the sharp cut the air into two.
Meanwhile, the battling lady diverted their attention to watch the battle with the young man. Seeing the attack almost connected with the body. The savage men had proud looks on their faces while the lady panicked.
'Please, dodge it. No!' She cried as she could imagine the gruesome death of the young man. Just then, something unimaginable happened.
"Bubble prison." The young man said casually as two golden circles appeared on his head.
Out of the thin air, a bubble appeared and imprisoned the savage man in a blink.
What!
The man with the axe cried as he looked at the fragile bubble. He tried to break the bubble, only to find it quite impossible.
"Yes. I knew it." The lady shouted in elation.
Whoosh!
The young man disappeared from his previous position, leaving a trail on the water, and appeared in front of the three men assaulting the lady.
"Bubble prison."
Another man was imprisoned in another bubble. Seeing this, the two other men recovered from their initial shock and sent a barrage of attacks toward the young man.
"Bubble shield." He said casually without any fear on his face. "Go. I'll handle them." He looked at the lady.
"Alright!" The lady nodded and bolted into the distance.
"No!!" A man cried as he tried to follow the lady but only to be assaulted by a bubble bullet.
"With me around, you can forget about going after her."
