All the bones scattered around the cave were now fulfilling their use. Within monts, Bone Goliath towered over the Behemoth. Unlike Ashton, Atlas or the behemoth did not ignore the goliath and imdiately attacked the skeletal beast.
'Really? Is size the only thing this fucker is intimidated by?' Aston shook his head.
[Unleah your Kraken! He'll undoubtedly be afraid of that.]
'...'
Ashton ignored Astaroth's remarks and jumped on Atlas' back to try and cut the tree off while it was focused on the Goliath. With a swing, Balmond was lodged deep within the tree. But just like the behemoth, the cut healed as soon as Ashton took the sword out to swing again.
Even after being dead, their vitality was more potent than most living beings. Not to ntion that absurd damage reduction. Even if Ashton was to activate all of his genes, he might not be able to take the tree down in one blow.
"Tch, gotta co up with so other plan." Ashton grunted as he jumped back, "There has to be a way to get this bastard's regeneration down. If we can't then things are going to be quite troubleso."
[There are two options for you. Either you miraculously manage to one-shot the beast and the tree. Or... never mind, I forgot Raphael's subspace is occupied with that bastard.]
"Damn it! Raphael would have been the perfect counter for the Behemoth."
Just like Raphael had reduced Beelzebub's HP to 1% instantly, he could do the sa with the Behemoth. It would have made Ashton's life a lot easier. Unfortunately, only one being can be held inside Raphael's subspace and since they were not planning on killing Beelzebub any ti soon, Ashton could not throw Atlas into the subspace and get rid of him there.
"Did you hear that? Sothing is coming."
While the behemoth was being kept busy by the goliath, Ashton turned around to see the walls of the cave were shaking. A horde of undead was coming his way. The tree must have done sothing to call forth everyone who had consud its fruit. It had to be so sort of precautionary asure to ensure its survival.
"These fuckers! They were so scared to even live around here, but look at them now." Ashton smirked, "Fine by . You're not the only one who can call out an army."
[Alright, do it. It's not like I can stop you or sothing.]
"Thank you~"
Suddenly, a portal opened behind him, and out of it ca the wraith wolves. They might not have enough strength to kill the undead, but it was also true the other way around. As long as the wolves successfully managed to keep the undead busy, Ashton would be able to deal with the tree along with the undead.
The wolves caused a stampede, destroying the undead over and over again. It didn't matter how many tis they healed or bit into the wolves, the undead could not stop them and soon were overwheld by the wolves.
Ashton had created an impenetrable wall. No matter how hard the undead tried, they weren't getting anywhere close to the tree or him for that matter.
Had the tree been a sentient being, its frustrations would have been on a whole different level. After all, it was supposed to be the unconquered ruler of the trial zone, and yet Ashton was deadset on making a bitch out of it.
A sudden explosive sound took Ashton's attention away. The Goliath had just slamd the behemoth down. It was weird, the bone behemoth wasn't supposed to be this strong. The only reason Ashton had summoned it was to take the punches that were thrown his way. Yet, the Goliath was holding on his own against the behemoth.
"How is he so strong? Is it because of the bones?"
[Hm... it could be possible. Since there were a lot of Precursor's bones scattered around, the Goliath could have received so sort of a buff.]
Watching Goliath fight the Behemoth fired up Ashton's fighting will. He wasn't going to let his pets steal the spotlight away from him. He once again jumped on the behemoth's back, wanting to sever the tree once and for all. But unlike the last ti, he didn't make the sa mistake as the last ti.
"I have been wanting to do this for so long!" Ashton excitedly mumbled before covering Balmond with Seraph's flas.
