Chapter 285 The Pond
Chapter 285 The Pond
"Fire Elemental", Rex mumbles as he grips the sword hilt tighter.
The Fire Elemental that they expected finally came out from the entrance on their left just beside the entrance that leads to the Sand Elemental place.
Its body is very hulking as its head almost reaches the high ceiling.
Different from the Sand Elemental before, the Fire Elemental looks more of a golem than what they expected to be more similar to the Sand Elemental, a spirit.
The entirety of its body is made of black charcoal rock blazing with scarlet red fire.
Its body is humanoid with two muscular arms and legs, two horns sticking out of the side of its fiery head that emits steaming black smoke. The upper body is engulfed with fire while the lower body is dripping with lava.
Thud!
Thud!
Every step it takes makes the ground trembles as the ground also melted of his steps.
Looking at the hulking fire golem in front of him, Rex scans it with the system,
<Carabidis Fire Guardian>
Race: Elemental Spirit
Power: Sixth Rank(Early) - Fire Elemental
Mental: 60
Strength: 757
Agility: 162
Endurance: 711
Intelligence: 432
'Its mental and agility stat is very low, but what's with the ridiculous amount of Strength and Endurance', Rex thought as he look at the Fire Elementa's stats.
After assessing the Fire Elemental's stats,
Rex then said, "Make sure to don't get hit by it, keep your distance and just let me be the one to fight it close range"
Hearing this, Adhara and Kyran nodded their head.
"Kyran, make sure to use your dark element to its injury", Rex added.
But when they're discussing strategies, the Fire Elemental's mouth suddenly blazes with fire before suddenly it spits flames from its mouth.
SWOOSH!
Rex and the others jumped to dodge the attack,
The fire that came out of the Fire Elementa's mouth came out non-stop as it turns the ground into flames, everything that got hit by the fire melted easily.
Before they fall to the ground, Adhara creates a platform for them to land.
Kyran and Adhara fall onto the platform she created using her purple fire, while Rex, on the other hand, there's a small explosion beneath his feet that Adhara created to propel him forward.
With the Necthu sword in his hand, Rex twists his torso to swing the sword.
Slash!
The golden-brown lines on the Nechtu sword glow as the Fire Elemental get slashed by it, golden brown cut can be seen on the Fire Elemental's arm that got slashed by Rex.
Just upon contact with the sword, the Fire Elementa's rock skin got cut like butter.
Rex then stabs his claws on the wall because the ground is still engulfed in flame, he jumps from wall to wall while attacking the Fire Elemental from all angels.
The Fire Elemental's movement is slower than the Sand Elemental.
Added with the night buff to Rex, the Fire Elemental's moves are easily dodged by Rex as more and more wounds appear on the Fire Elemental's body.
BAM!
Rex tries to punch the Fire Elemental's face with Force Beam and was surprised that it has no effect, the Fire Elemental didn't even budge upon getting hit by Rex.
Even when Rex tries to attack it with his spells, none of it is able to hurt the Fire Elemental.
'Let's stick to the sword', Rex thought as he went back to slashing using the Nechtu sword.
Kyran is also doing his thing after seeing the cut all over the Fire Elemental's body.
Dark mana invades those cuts on the Fire Elemental's body, the dark mana ripped the cuts wider and started to corrupt it with the dark elements.
ROAR!!
The Fire Elemental roared in pain, it started to hit around madly in anger.
But after realizing Rex can't be caught easily by it, the Fire Elemental's head turns towards Kyran and Adhara who have their backs against the wall.
Roar!
Thud! Thud!
With its huge body, the Fire Elemental runs towards Kyran and Adhara.
The Fire Elemental then leaped across the crystal clear pond despite its huge body.
This makes the both of them widen their eyes in shock, the sight of a huge fire golem running and even leaping towards them can make anyone piss their pants.
BOOM!
BOOM!
Rex didn't sit idle as he saw this happening,
His body glows with yellow force, moonlight, and black lightning also present as his stats are enhanced even further, he body-slammed the Fire Elemental with the Nechtu sword repeatedly.
Even his eyes glow red after activating the Alpha Bearing skill,
<The Fire Elemental's stats has been decreased by 30%>
The walls cracked every time he jumped towards the Fire Elemental with immense strength.
But even with the humongous power that Rex had, the Fire Elemental only got swayed by each hit as Rex can't push the Fire Elemental down.
Its eyes are transfixed on Kyran and Adhara as a fireball materializes in its hand.
The fireball started growing bigger and bigger until it stopped at the size of a small house, fire mana comes naturally to its body like flowing water as it gathers on the fireball.
Looking at this, Rex leaped towards the fireball with the sword in hand.
The Nechtu sword is very effective against the Fire Elemental, and he's confident that if he manages to slash the fireball it will definitely explode.
But then suddenly, "Huakhh!"
BAM!
Rex got hit by the Fire Elemental's right arm sending him crashing to the wall like a jet.
He got planted on the wall because of getting hit by the golem, the crack on the wall stretches far because of how much power was in that attack.
Roar!
Rex was caught off guard since he's focusing on hitting the fireball.
After successfully swatting Rex away, the Fire Elemental then glances at Adhara and Kyran again.
With a flick of its hand, the fireball was thrown towards them.
SWOOSH!
"Adhara! Do something!", Kyran said from the side as the fireball descend down on them.
They can't dodge the fireball since the ground is on fire, and Adhara's purple fire platform can't be moved that easily since it requires a huge amount of control.
Feeling that they're put against the wall, Adhara's body exploded with purple fire.
Her hands burst with purple fire as it started to make her levitate, the moon shone through the small holes on the ceiling as her body and mind got refreshed.
"FIRE MAELSTORM!"
SWOOSH!
Purple fire exploded from the ground pushing the scarlet red fire away, the purple fire then turns into a vortex as it clashed with the fireball.
BOOM!
Both spells clash against each other and was in a stalemate.
The energy of both different kinds of fires splashes to the surroundings as both spells try to push the other away strugglingly.
"RRGHHH!!", Adhara gritted her teeth as she tries to stave back the fireball.
Kyran can only watch from the back as Adhara desperately tries to shield the both of them, but the fireball is very strong since the fire in it comes from a Fire Elemental.
The embodiment of fire itself.
But her effort successfully buy time for Rex to recover.
Rex looks out from the hole he created on the wall because of the crash, he saw Adhara desperately trying to fend off the fireball as the Fire Elemental inch closer to them.
"Let's end this", he mumbles as his body makes a cracking sound.
Powerful moonlight energy gathers to his body as Rex slowly turns into his Werewolf form, and after he finished transforming.
Swoosh!
His body disappeared before suddenly he appeared beside the fireball and slash it with the Nechtu sword in his hand.
BOOM!
The fireball exploded after getting slashed by the Nechtu sword.
Adhara and Kyran got blasted into the wall as the fireball exploded, the shockwave and sheer force of the explosion were more powerful than Rex has ever seen.
Even rocks and debris falls from the ceiling as the temple shook.
After the explosion passed, Rex stands up from the ground as the fiery ground prickle his skin.
But the red tattoo on his wrist glows as the prickle feeling from his feet burning lessened greatly, he can endure the fire more now.
Roar!
Without a pause, the Fire Elemental swings its muscular arm downwards.
The muscular arm descends down on Kyran and Adhara who just recover from the explosion, and it's heading at them at high speed.
Seeing this, Rex vanished and appear in front of them.
BAM!!
Rex manages to get there just in time and block the Fire Elemental's arm.
The force that came from the attack greatly shock Rex as he fall to one knee while holding the Fire Elemental's arm with two hands.
CRACK!
'It's still very strong!', Rex thought as he gritted his teeth feeling his arms bones break.
Even in his Werewolf Form, the Fire Elemental's strength is still stronger than him. It even manages to force him in one knee even though he's using his two hands to block it.
Aside from its powerful strength, the Fire Elemental is also heavy.
It put all of its weight into that attack which was able to put Rex on one knee.
"Rex! The pond!", Adhara suddenly shouted from the back while pointing at the pond.
Hearing this, Rex glance at the pond in confusion.
The pond looks the same as before with its beautiful crystal clear water, the sides of the pond are burned with a fire that came from the Fire Elemental.
But then suddenly, he realizes something, 'The water!'
All of the scorching fire that came from the Fire Elemental should be able to evaporate the pond, but the pond is still intact even with the high temperature and even from the explosion before.
'Let's try it!', Rex thought as his legs veins contracted powerfully.
With all of his might, Rex stands back up while still blocking the Fire Elemental's arm.
Looking at this, the Fire Elemental's expression turns into shock as Rex stands up while holding the strength and weight of itself.
After standing up, Rex pushes the Fire Elemental's arm with all his might.
Rumble!
The Fire Elemental got pushed by Rex, its stumble makes the ground shake as its eyes widened in shock. Its expressionless look brimming with expressions upon seeing Rex manage to push it away.
Rex then takes the Nechtu sword that stabbed the ground beside him.
BLITZ!
The Nechtu sword got filled with Rex's immense black lightning mana that even the golden brown linings glow with black lightning, the sword was strong enough even after Rex poured all of the mana he can gather.
With a smile on his face, Rex turns into a blur and slashes the Fire Elemental's chest.
SLASH!
ROAR!
The Fire Elemental stumble back as it roared in pain, the slash wound on its chest stretches all the way down to its waist.
But Rex didn't stop,
In his Werewolf form, all of his stats got increased by 100%.
Even before he turns into his Werewolf form, the Fire Elemental can't really catch Rex since its agility is very low and now, Rex's speed is akin to a blur.
The Fire Elemental can't follow his movement at all.
SLASH!
SLASH!
Rex slashed the Fire Elemental again and again, 'A little bit more', he thought as he saw the pond is right behind the Fire Elemental.
After the last slash, Rex charged his black lightning into the sword.
His body sparks with black lightning as it travels into the Nechtu sword, his eyes also flash with ferocity as he thrust the Nechtu sword into the Fire Elemental's chest one last time.
STAB!
ROARR!
The Fire Elemental got stabbed cleanly on its chest as it stumbles back.
Splash!
One of its legs dripping with lava went inside the pond before it started to melt, the left leg of the Fire Elemental started to melt under the water as its body fall to the pond.
Roar!!
Water splashes around as the Fire Elemental struggles to get out of the pond.
But no matter how hard he tries, the crystal clear water does its job quickly and started melting the Fire Elemental faster than the Fire Elementa can hope to get out.
The scorching fire around the Fire Elemental body becomes dimmer and dimmer, it has a look of helplessness that somehow manages to make Rex feel bad.
The fiery ground started to reside as the Fire Elemental's body dissipated inside the pond.
Kyran and Adhara approach Rex from the back as the three of them look at the wailing Fire Elemental, and it didn't take long before the Fire Elemental completely disappeared.
The water becomes calm again, there's no sign of any disturbance whatsoever.
<Killed Carabidis Guardian 2/3>
<Killed Carabidis Fire Guardian, Obtained 5,000,000 Exp>
Looking at the system's notification, Rex nodded his head.
The system confirmed that the Fire Elemental has been killed.
After a moment, a red glow suddenly appear in the crystal clear water before a red orb came out of the water and floats on the surface.
Looking at this, "It's the same one as the Sand Elemental", Adhara said.
"Maybe if we put this orb on the small pyramid outside just like we did with the Sand Elemental one, something might happen", Kyran added.
Hearing this, Rex decided to take the red orb but stopped by Adhara.
Rex glance at Adhara in confusion before she said, "Didn't you see what happened to the Fire Elemental? The water might be dangerous"
Kyran also nodded his head in agreement as he too feel the water is dangerous.
Looking at the two, Rex squats down and dips his hand on the water making Adhara and Kyran's bodies jolt in shock.
But after a moment, nothing happened.
"See? It's nothing", Rex said before he slowly went inside the pond.
He started to swim towards the red orb under Adhara and Kyran's worried gazes, and when he grabbed the red orb the same scratching sound suddenly can be heard.
This sound makes Rex and the others glance at the right.
Not intending to let them rest, the last entrance on their right suddenly opened.
Rex immediately jumped out of the water and landed beside Adhara and Kyran, "Get ready, the next one must be the Light Elemental"
