NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 196: Run
Rahhhhhh!
A violent shout erupted from a man with two thick long horns which stretched up his head like that of a cow.
Thick waves of energy poured out of his entire being and rose into the air, the energy so thick that it formed a red pillar of light that touched the skies.
Lightening rumbled in the sky and clouds gathered, the rays from the sun soon getting covered and the several people around the man left gulping.
"We can barely handle him as he is. Whatever he is doing will just worsen the situation for us." A well built man with blood trailing down the left side of his forehead and holding unto a long axe said, his dreary form gazing at the figure of the horned man in the distance.
"Damn, my arm, I nearly lost it" A man dressed in silver armour said and twisting his arm 180 to correct its position."
"Should we be chitchatting or trying to stop this bastard from powering up" A scantily dressed woman, covered in blood and cuts said.
The two men looked at her with a curious gaze. The armoured man wanted to say something, but the woman didn't have the time to listen to his words, tightening her lips, she shot forward, speeding at the horned man, her body lighting up in a blue energy film that covered her.
"Impulsive" The silver armoured man said.
"But she has a point" the man with the axe said and with a stomp on the ground shot after her.
Seeing no reason to stay back, the armoured man also took off in pursuit of the two, and as the two of them advanced, so did the over hundred men on the battle field also charge forwards, their target the man who was releasing energy into the sky.
Ha! Ha! Ha!
The horned man laughed as he washed the approaching crowd of enemies, he had already downed several dozens of them but the small army around him still refused to understand that he could not be resisted.
"They don't understand that the only way out for them is death, because I am invincible."
With the steady stream of energy he was sending int the sky it was obvious he couldn't easily move like before, that he was most likely stuck in place.
Chuckling to himself at the naivety or perhaps desperation of his opponents, he raised his right foot up and stamped it on the ground, a tremble which had a shockwave rushing out in all directions being created and then with a grin he watched as the ground split for up to a 100 meters in all 4 cardinal directions around him.
The approaching enemies all dodged the cracks, their eyes wary and alert as the looked at the widening opening, all wondering what was come next and then.
"Screeech"
Gory creatures whose appearance spoke very much about their violence began crawling out of the dark crack.
"Cannon fodders" One the men shouted and ran towards the creature, ready to easily dice it in half with his sword.
The man swung and though his attack hit, it went only a few inches into the creatures body before getting stuck.
"What" The man said in disbelief before the long sword limbs of the mantis like creature fell on his head.
People who paid attention to the man were surprised by this, and it didn't take long for one of them to figure out what had gone wrong.
"They have mana cores" A man screamed out, his voice travelling around the whole battlefield.
This new information had several peoples stopping their charge against the horned man to face the summoned creatures, while the rest charged at the main enemy harder than ever,
"Forget the creatures go for the summoner," The man with the axe yelled when he saw that their forces were being cut in half, the summoned creatures distracting them.
"Oh really" the horned man said his words traveling through the battlefield.
"Let's see how you get to me."
After the man said these words, a powerful far reaching screech sounded from the crack and a wave of mana totally different from that of the horned man washed out on everybody.
"Now you guys don't go dying on me before I can complete my techniques"
True to the man's words, all assault against him had to be stopped, because, the creature which had just crawled out of the crack if it not sufficiently restrained was mowing through the dozens of men on the battlefield,
The scantily dressed lady had on a bitter expression, she wanted to keep on charging at the horned man but even she knew the fate that awaited her if she faced him alone.
Having a spear appear in her hand she ran towards the massive creature and jumped into the air soaring high up. She looked down at the raging creature and then focusing her gaze on it's hind legs, she shot down her spear.
In a display of majestic brilliance, the woman spear became covered in a blue glow and then it expanded to a hundred time it's size falling like a pill from the heavens on the creatures legs, drilling through it's flesh and pinning it to the ground.
The lady had just barley finished pinning one of it's legs when a mix of several chains burst from the ground a and wrapped around it's other legs, further holding it in place.
The creature screamed and roared as it tried to free itself. It quickly realized that it's physical strength could not get it out of it's binding and began pulling on the mana within itself.
Like a detonation, an explosion of mana was released off the creature's body, waves of mana pouring into the surroundings, but this was nothing to the men that surrounded it.
They shrugged of the force of the mana and the pressure it came with and then rallying their strengths, rained down powerful deadly attacks on its immobile form.
Though the creature proved to be resistance it didn't take long for it to begin screeching in pain.
"You guys go after Malachi, the rest of us will deal with eat."
Considering the situation, this was the best strategy and immediately, half of the team split running off to stop the overly powerful man.
Dozens of men shot towards the enemy, but despite their determination and readiness to give their lives, before they could get to him he disappeared.
Everyone was taken back and immediately they began looking around, trying to sense him with every means at their disposal.
"Where did he go"
"I'm right here"
