Chapter 150: Defeated
The storm of flames eventually came to a stop, the energy of the fifth and sixth members of the squad nearly exhausted. The inferno came to a stop and they caught sight of their quarry yet again. The armored plates seemed brittle, every bit of blood and water having been burned away, yet the beast was still moving. In fact, they were surprised to see that the flames hadnt just stopped, they were being sucked into the beasts opened mouth. When the last of the fire was consumed, the beast even gave a challenging roar to them. They even all took a step back in fear, but their preparations were not in vain. The storm of fire wasnt just a method of killing it also trapped the beast once more.
The wet mud and sand that had been dragging the beast downwards was cooked rapidly in that storm of wind and fire, acting like a massive kiln to fire and harden the ground back into a stone like consistency and trap the monster within. While it was trapped once again, the final steps of the plan were enacted. The youngster of the group, Big Oak, and also the one who had been on scouting duty the longest was finally put into play. The many bushes and shrubs in the valley suddenly started to move, each of them sending forth a few vines, the living ropes writhing forward and piling onto the beast in front of them, adding a second layer of encumbrance and trapping to the beast that was already trapped in the stone ground. The final member of the team acted at the same time. The Boss had drawn out a huge lance, easily twenty feet long. His Qi rose off of his body like steam, all of the muscles of his massive frame started to pulse and expand, making him look more like a monster than a man. Stomping against the ground, the stone and rocks shattered into dust from the force of his first step, launching him forward like a freight train. The trapped beast held in place and helpless, the sharp point of that huge weapon poised to pierce its eye and stab into its brain.
Unfortunately for the Black Skull Squad, the solid stone hadnt trapped it very well. With its huge serpentine body and the help of the free arms on its upper body it quickly pulled its tail free of the ground. When the thousands of vines piled over it to tie it down, the beasts mouth opened and the numerous articulated fangs spread apart. A duct on the bottom of its mouth flared and a stream of liquid shot out. The vines immediately shriveled up on contact with the liquid, the beast throwing its head side to side rapidly, creating a perimeter of that terribly fluid and keeping the vines at bay. Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.
It was too bad the Boss of the Black Skull Squad couldnt stop his attack at this point. He could see that the beast was already freeing itself and while it was surrounded by a wall of vines they hadnt actually tied it down. Even so, it was still confined to a small space, limiting its motion and giving him the chance he needed to strike it down. Charging forward like an army of heavy cavalry formed on a single man, he thrust his lance forward, striking like a thunderbolt.
Run! You have to live for the rest of us!
One man ran out of that valley, blood running down his arms, tears streaming down his cheeks. Unable to even save a single one of the Land Birds in his escape. The swarm of ants were too numerous. Theyd picked the birds clean before they even started the attack on the squad. He passed by a pile of bones in his flight. A torrential explosion of water was the only reason he could survive. It was like the most massive and powerful waterfall hed ever heard of had appeared, moving horizontally like the breaking of a flood dam, washing away countless ants and clearing him a path. The Talisman Master used his own Qi to form a wall of water, blocking the beast from pursuing. Big Oak heard a pained cry a few minutes later, the silence afterwards making it obvious that he was the only one left in their squad.
Not even a silver ranked squad can take it down Just what sort of terrible monster is it?
Hed been running at his top speed, ignoring his wounds and trying to escape as quickly as possible. Suddenly, he slowed down. His steps coming to a stop as he felt death approaching him. Looking behind himself, he saw that the beast was up on a ridge, just staring in his direction without moving. The blood covering its body not subtracting from his terror, only multiplying it. Big Oak turned back to the path in front of him and saw motion. He couldnt quite make out what it was until it was too late. The bushes in front of him seemed to come alive. A figure separating from the underbrush, its perfect camouflage broken as it swung two scythe like forearms towards his neck.
