Chapter 1189: The Battle Heats Up
But Fang grew more curious about that monster. According to William, it could absorb spirit power from anything around without any limits. And from what he learnt, that monster was in its weakened state.
"Being able to absorb my spirit power out of my control like this and it's in a weak state… Impressive foe," Fang muttered to himself before adding, "and its main element isn't just darkness, but also lightning. That kid… He selected a brutal way to kill this enemy, I like it!"
Fang knew fighting such monsters would require a different approach, after all he saw William make other formations for different elements. Yet William stressed over using the lightning element despite the monster having it. And that meant he wanted to overload the monster with such an element, and brutally kill it using this way.
It was brutal, but Fang didn't dislike the approach. So he waited for William's monstrous weapon to carry the materials in one ring over and then he started to deploy them.
"You got interesting new friends here, why not give me a few?" As he made the formation, Fang kept pestering William about the latter's monstrous weapons.
"Just attack, we got little time to waste here," William couldn't believe how Fang was acting this uncaring in such a situation. The monster was releasing tons of power that started to show faint cracks all over the world here, alongside the unstopping tremors.
"Ok, ok, I just asked for two of your big things," Fang mulled over William's stinginess. He saw five monstrous weapons helping William, and now William took one more out to deliver him the ring with materials.
That made him realise that William had more than just these six monstrous weapons. Asking for two or three from him wasn't a bad thing in Fang's eyes. And yet William refused.
Before William would shout again, Fang acted. He was already experienced in building these formations, and in less than a minute he built three formations.
"I gave him enough to make two formations… That bastard, he must have found a way to get materials from Lara," William didn't miss this little detail, and knew how Fang got his hands over the materials.
And yet he didn't care. Fang started to release the lightning attacks from his far place, and landed a torrent of lightning over that black cloud.
The first clashes didn't bring any harm to the monster. If they did any, they added more power to the monster's destructive move. And yet William knew this was just a temporary boost.
The early minutes were a bit stressful. William changed his plan entirely, and instead of walking towards the monster, he started to run away from it. It wasn't that easy to get away with the risk over spirit power.
To add on top of that, when Fang released his attacks first, William could feel an intangible surge in that monster's ability to suck spirit power from him. Even within the protection of these arrays, he still kept losing his spirit power.
He resisted the urge to take more monstrous weapons out, as he didn't feel at ease to do so yet. So he had to let the five focus on building more arrays at every step he took, delaying his retreating speed even further.
*Roar!*
"At last! Too much sweetness isn't good now, huh?'' At some point, an ear deafening roar came from the monster, making William's tensed up face ease a little bit.
He knew this roar meant the monster was starting to struggle with the lightning power infused into it from Fang. This was what William aimed to do from the start, and couldn't help to turn and look in an evil way towards that black cloud.
"You were enjoying it all the time so far, right? Glad you are going to suffer now!" he checked the power emitted from that black cloud, and it seemed like the monster was losing control already.
The vibrations coming from that attack kept coming faster, yet they started to feel weaker. The cracks all over the place slowed down, and William knew the monster wouldn't be able to return to the same peak of power in that attack again.
It already lost control over this attack, and the power stored within was getting dissipated fast. Yet he wasn't still out of danger, he was too close from that monster. And so he returned to focus on running away.
As the monster lost control, the infamous spirit power absorption ability of it started to grow weaker as well. That allowed William to return to the old way, letting his five monstrous weapons build arrays faster.
*Roar!*
"Watch out! It's coming for you!" Fang was keeping an eye over everything happening. Be it the monster or William, he never missed a thing. As the monster started to respond, he instantly warned William, something he didn't need to do actually as the man was already aware of the threat coming for him.
Just less than a few minutes after the monster lost control over its technique, it roared, and came hot for William. The latter just crossed a few hundred metres away, and yet he kept an eye over the monster.
"Screw off!" William knew the monster was using the first attack it used when the battle erupted. And yet this time he wasn't ready to take the monster head on.
The best thing he could do was to move fast, away from the way of harm. Yet that made the other five monstrous weapons in a tough position.
"I now know why I didn't feel at ease to get more of them," just one attack and William lost another two of his weapons. He managed to call back only three, and if he was half beat slower, he'd have lost all of them.
The last time William managed to get away from the monster assault thanks to the arrays sat before by his monstrous weapons. And now he had no array on his side to solve such a problem, so he had to just run away.
