479 Race against ti (part 2)
At the center of the massive dual-layered mine were the 4 major generals that surrounded the massive mana pillar falling from the sky.
While major Gareth sent a sunfire pillar crashing into the ground, major Scott who was in charge of the northern gate cast the demigod fusion spell thundercloud.
Thundercloud was a fusion of wind and lightning elents that created charged clouds that moved with the caster. The clouds sent out demigod-level thunderbolts at the ground, tearing through it much quicker.
As for major Reeves, he was the one dealing with all the beasts that escaped the special ops and tried to interrupt them while major Briggs he was on the ground fighting over the control of the ground with the peak king rank beast below.
This was necessary because it prevented it from further hardening the floor and making the drilling even more difficult, but if Briggs was to win the tug of war, then getting to the beast would be a breeze.
After close to 10 minutes of constantly pouring out mana, the major generals were through the rubbles and had finally reached the deepest layer of the mine.
Imdiately, major Briggs and Reeves floated back into the air, as they readied themselves to engage the evolving beast.
With one final round, they had destroyed the final layer revealing a 15-ter tall and massive tortoise shell. On its black shell were hundreds of ter-long retractable spikes with chromastone tips.
“Fuck!” The four major generals simultaneously cursed their rotten luck as they were about to fight the worst thing one could possibly face in a short period of ti.
.....
‘That makes a lot of sense.’ Blake said as he saw the evolving king rank black tortoise.
The reason he had suspected that an emperor-rank beast was behind the beast attacks was that it was sothing that required an intellect higher than that of normal king rank beasts.
Seeing the tortoise answered the question because tortoises were not only known to be intelligent but they also lived very long lives that fostered knowledge acquisition.
Since its layers of protection were all destroyed, it was now ti to face the humans that ca for it.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Its thick armored legs ca out of its shell followed by its horned head and spiked tail.
Although staying in its shell was the safest, it would make it easier for the humans to push it out of the mana pillars range, thus canceling the evolution.
ROAR!
The king rank beast stood up on its hind legs before letting out a roar filled with both anger and madness.
Imdiately, the spikes at the back of its shell retracted before moving to its underbelly and firing at the major generals.
Sensing that the spikes had no traps, major Scott stretched forth his hand and cast a raging cyclone.
Imdiately, the air in the environnt quickly gathered to form a massive 15-ter-tall cyclone in front of them. The hundreds of spikes aid at them were swallowed by the wind funnel before being redirected back to the black tortoise.
At the sa ti, major Reeves and major Gareth simultaneously bombarded the cyclone with a sea of flas, instantly turning it into a flaming cyclone before major Scott sent it toward the evolving beast.
Wasting no ti, the black tortoise stomps its right hind leg on the ground sending all the rubbles into the air and combing them into thick layers of walls.
BOOM!
The flaming raging cyclone crashed into the massive wall releasing a massive explosion of flas and rocks that stretched past 20 ters, but both parties were in no way affected.
“We need to step things up!” Major Scott said with a frown as his eyes began glowing white.
Hundreds of lightning arcs began squirming all around his body as he flew higher into the air. The bright sky turned dark, and a thunderstorm began brewing.
“On it!”
Major Reeves and major Gareth said as they activated berserk mode, causing their entire body to light up in flas, but they were not done yet.
A water wheel that constantly absorbed the water in the atmosphere appeared behind major Gareth, while major Reeves cast earth guardian causing the huge chunks of rocks to start floating around him.
Earth guardian was the equivalent of water wheel, it constantly attracted and absorbed the rocks and particles in the environnt. This enabled a geomancer to generate and control earth even when they were not close to the ground.
“Let’s go!” Major Briggs said as he cast water wheel and earth guardian before leading the charge.
Hundreds of ter-long ice spikes condensed all around the black tortoise while the water wheel continuously mystic mist that quickly filled the area.
With a flick of his wrist, the thick ice spikes lunged at the open areas of the black tortoise but without looking, the floating rocks around ford armors around its exposed parts.
The ice spikes broke through the rock armor however they weren’t enough to pierce its steel-like skin, but out of nowhere hundreds of exploding fla spears assaulted the now exposed parts.
ROAR!
The black tortoise roared in pain and madness as its staggered, but it was then that a thunderbolt the thickness of 2 n crashed into its head.
“Bet you didn’t see that coming.” Major Briggs said with a smirk.
The aim of the mystic mist wasn’t to trap the black tortoise in an illusion, rather it was to obstruct its vision.
When the smoke created by the explosion cleared, they saw a hole so deep and large that the damaged brain was now visible.
“Shit!” The major general cursed as they saw the brain healing at an astonishing speed.
“We need to get it out of there!” Major Reeves said.
They had thought they would be able to kill the evolving beast while it was still in the mana pillar but it seed that they had underestimated the healing power of the mana pillar.
