Chapter 137: Centipede Beam

Chapter 137

Ch . 137 Centipede Beam

“GiJiJiJiJiJii!”

A straight red light shoots out from the huge centipedes head .

It came, the centipedes beam finally came .

Be positive . I have to think positive!

It is a dilemma, but it should also be an opportunity .

Evade it without decelerating, and shake it off!

Concentrate, its over if I get hurt .

I won’t die immediately if I do, but if it hinders [[Roll]], then I’ll fall prey to the huge centipede .

Complete evasion, there is no other choice .

I move to the left a little .

A straight line of red light penetrates the place I was at just seconds before .

It continues on through the sand and raises smoke from where it hits .

It still doesn’t end .

The straight line of red light moves along closer chasing after me uninterrupted . The hot air coils around me as if it was living, making me feel the heat through my scales .

Is this a sense of intimidation .

My sense of meeting death increases and so does my speed as a result, making me move further to the left to escape from the [[Heat Ray]] .

The red light quickly moves over, following me .

Oh, this is impossible .

As expected, I should fly .

The attack lasts for way too long . This is a cheat .

Fortunately, as it was passing through the ground or hills, I could jump and avoid the red light like a jumping rope .

I pass within inches over the [[Heat Ray]] under me .

It was regrettable .

After all, it is impossible to avoid the centipedes beam on a two dimensional plane . Being able to move in three dimensions on a three dimensional plane is required .

The [[Heat Ray]] rises towards me who was still in the air .

What? You’re kidding!

Why has it not finished attacking yet!?

I guess I really need to pack my MP into avoiding this!

I already seriously, dislike huge centipedes!

If I was unlucky, I would have already been killed three times!

I slightly stretch out my wing to the side while rolling to deviate my center of gravity and barely manage to avoid it .

The [[Heat Ray]] passes right beside me from the bottom up . Even though I wasn’t hit, my scales were hot and got a little burnt .

The fatigue also starts hitting my body, but my mental exhaustion is even worse off .

What the heck is with this monster beam .

The [[Heat Ray]] comes down diagonally above me, who just got to the ground . I sharply bend to the right while feeling death behind me .

Maybe my [[Roll]] got faster since I’m being chased .

[Normal Skill [[Roll]]’s Lv increased from 6 to 7] [Title Skill [[Chicken Runner]]’s Lv increased from 2 to 3]

Yeah!

Although the name of the title skill is completely bad, right now it’s my salvation .

They decided to be merciful to me on the verge of hell .

I can visibly see an increase in my speed .

Even though I should be considerably far away from the huge centipedes body, the [[Heat Ray]] is still not finished .

I can’t shake it .

It literally shoots through the surroundings at the speed of light . Since its specifically aiming at me, I barely managed to avoid it but if it were shooting recklessly then I surely would have been killed already .

The [[Heat Ray]] hits the ground just behind me . The sound of burning and smoke rises .

The other side of the food chain should be rather tough .

That’s why its frantic right now as you will surpass this if you escape .

You can run away if you could last a few seconds .

If I manage to escape, I will someday be ranked AAA+++, then I’ll exterminate all of the huge centipedes in the desert .

I’m trembling thinking and waiting for that time time to come!

The [[Heat Ray]]’s light starts to shake .

Finally, it seems that the time limit of the huge centipede has come .

However, now that the stream is not consistent it’s difficult reading the movement .

I cannot afford to get hit after coming this far .

If I jump right at the small hill, and continue along a right angle, the [[Heat Ray]] should end by then .

Let’s go .

I should be able to do it .

The moment I was getting ready to jump as I was climbing the hill, the [[Heat Ray]] sharply moved from left to right and scraped off my scales as if it was paper, along with an edge of my body .

Pain was emanating throughout my body .

It was no longer hot but, an acute pain of meat being scraped away .

“Gugu!”josei

I wanted to shout, but then I remembered that the ball rabbit and Nina were in my mouth and I somehow managed to close it .

But I could no longer keep using [[Roll]], as I was thrown to the ground with a crawling posture . Dragged by inertial force, my abdominal scales were being scraped away by friction with the sand .

My head hurts, my sight is dull . My senses aren’t coming together .

After stopping, I move my neck and look behind me .

Ironically, it was just where the [[Heat Ray]] had stopped .

“GiJiJiJiJiJiJiJiJiJiJiJii!”

The ruler of the desert comes closer .

Having confirmed victory, its speed isn’t that fast .

However, it was impossible to correct my posture and escape now .

Ah… . this, I’m dead .

At the very least, I want Nina and the ball rabbit to escape .

I looked to the front to open my mouth, then I saw a large hole opened on the ground . The sand is hardened around the hole and its reddish brown .

I crawl on the ground and approach the large hole . Anyway, I had to flee the centipede .

It was a big hole that I approached without thinking, but the size was one size larger than I was . It seemed like the huge centipede was getting closer, but I could not move my legs like I wanted to .

I kick the ground and spread my wings, and jump into the big hole head first .

Without changing to [[Roll]] I go in as is .

Apparently it’s some kind of underground passageway, the interior is also paved red-brown sand all around .

It is regrettable, but it’s better paved then the cave I had .

I can use earth magic so I’m confident in my strength, but it looks considerably better here .

However, the location is too severe for a residence . It’s in the middle of the desert .

Perhaps… . are these ruins or something?

“GiJiJiJiJiJiJiJii!”

Following after me, the huge centipede sticks its head in . As it catches up to me it collides with my back and I’m blown away .

Hitting my head against the ceiling and falling back on my back, it was fortunate that this happened .

I was able to take a distance thanks from being blown away .

After all, the huge centipede seems to be unable move its legs properly in this aisle, stopping its movement behind me, as it desperately wiggles around .

“GiJii!” “GiJiJiJiJii!”

You are hitting the wall with all your strength but it doesn’t look like the wall will collapse .

Even if it looks like it could use its feet to attack, it doesn’t seem I need to worry about the walls being broken like that .

It might be possible to cut through it with your teeth, but when you’re facing that direction it’s impossible .

It would reach me if it were to shoot out [[Heat Ray]] in this narrow space, but it looks like it doesn’t have enough stamina .

I managed to run away but now I can’t get out .

My only hope is trying to find where this leads to .
