Chapter 174

Ch. 174 – The End of The Lord of the Desert

The lower half of the Giant Centipede, separated from the rest of its body, thrashes about uncontrollably. Body fluids gush out from the separated sections, as it squirms about randomly and hits the ground, gouging it out.

Come to think of it, Centipede, since your body structure is jointed, can you move around without a head? I expect that it will exhaust itself immediately.

I’d be an idiot to get too close and be caught up in such a thing and to die as a result. Let me get away quickly. The problem is not the rampaging body, but the remaining half with the head. It should have taken considerable damage, but that guy is still alive. I should quickly give it the finis.h.i.+ng blow.

Oou, it still has one third of its HP left? Is this how your regeneration works? Is it treating its blood loss? Well, anything is fine.

The Giant Centipede looks up while lying on its back, our eyes meet and it quickly flips its body over to prepare itself.

“GIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJiiiiiiii!”

It completely snaps. I am not referring to its body being cut into two, but it losing its temper.

Again, red light gathers at the mouth of the Giant Centipede. It intends to quickly release another Centipede Beam.

I spread my wings and fly over the top of the Giant Centipede. It was easy to gauge, because of the acc.u.mulated beam in front of its mouth and because I have an understanding of how long it takes to charge the beam, that there is nothing to be wary of.

I immediately land on its back behind its head. From this position, the centipede shouldn’t be able to hit me with the beam. The Giant Centipede shakes its head from side-to-side while firing the Centipede Beam, drawing a large line in the desert. Yosh yosh, use your MP in vain.

The Giant Centipede then starts twisting its body in an effort to force me off. I kick off from its sh.e.l.l and fly, landing on the ground and using [[Roll]] to dash through the desert.

I will run away for now. If I run around, I can expect it to K.O. from the blood loss. It seems a considerable amount of blood is going to its head, and there is no way to create any distance from the Giant Centipede.

“AAAIGIGIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJIJiiiiiii!”

The Giant Centipede is pursuing. It pushes its way through the sand, scattering body fluids in the desert while pursuing. However, compared to its considerable speed before it was severed in two, is its speed still dropping? If I seriously hurry right now, I could easily escape.  Currently, I’m adjusting my speed as to not escape.

I periodically check behind me. Near the mouth of the Giant Centipede, red light is gathering again. Oi oi, the Centipede Beam fires too frequently, is its MP not completely exhausted?  It’s completely lost its composure.

I accelerate at once and turn left. I trace a circle on the ground, aiming for the back of the remaining half of the Giant Centipede. The Centipede Beam follows behind me, but I pull away as soon as its angle nears me. Beyond that, it is necessary for it to twist its body a lot. It will not be as fast as turning its head to aim.

Aiming at the severed part, the place where there is no sh.e.l.l, I tackle it while maintaining [[Roll]].
