333 Statue (2/2)
He grabbed the Naga that he disabled by its head and marched menacingly towards the rest of them. The Nagas flinched since they could tell what Raven was trying to do, and whether they like it or not, it was working. Needless to say, it is their duty to stop from desecrating their place so they have to do what had to be done.
The Nagas charged at him once more, Raven smirked and used the meat shield to block some of their attacks while delivering one of his own. The Naga on his hand screech in pain but he didn't care. This tactic might be dirty but he didn't care for that as well. This is a battle to death, it's either him or them, nothing in between, so anything is permitted here.
He managed to gravely injure one from that exchange. He then saw that they are summoning bows and arrows once more. Raven snorted and didn't falter, he marched towards them with his meat shield in front. He reversed his grip on his hammer and used the handle to poke the back of the Naga he was holding. The pokes he issued were calculated and rhythmic. After he done, the Naga's eyes widened and it suddenly started spitting out gastric acids uncontrollably.
'Yeah, you got arrows, I got this. Come at me, bitches.' Raven inwardly snorted.
The gastric acids melted the arrows before it even reached him, Raven also took this chance to rush at them violently since he wanted to not only melt their weapons but also singe their skin using the gastric acids.
And this move worked wonders.
The Nagas ran towards different directions to dodge him. Some of them were unfortunate and not only had their weapons melted but also their skin. Screeches of pain sounded throughout the field, Raven's plan was a success since he managed to finish of at least five of the Nagas before the one he was holding finally kicked the bucket.
Those that were left are gravely injured but is still capable of fighting, a naughty grin was plastered on Raven's face.
'If I could do it once, then I could it again.'
That's what he was thinking, and that is also what he precisely did. He abducted yet another Naga, disabled it, poked its back multiple times to force it to vomit gastric acids uncontrollably and then chased off the rest with then intent of finishing them off.
It didn't take long before every Naga was taken care of, Raven was panting a bit but he was mostly fine. He only had a couple of grazes and superficial wounds, he could ignore those since his regenerative abilities will take care of that. Raven had a great life force due to his fortuitous encounters on his journey, it would take more than just mere grazes and wounds to take him down. A couple of deep breaths from and him and these wounds will disappear like they weren't even there at the first place.
”Ugh, I smell gross.” Raven complained upon smelling himself.
One of the disadvantages of using a blunt weapon is that it's messy. Killing someone or something using it will cause the user to literally bath in blood. This happens a lot for Raven.
Sometimes he would feel something on his face and would realize that it was some random flesh from a random body part. Raven often used a barrier to keep himself clean but now that his cultivation base is sealed, he couldn't do that. He also can't change clothes either since his storage are also sealed. Now he's forced to endure this fate until he cleared this place.
He shook his head and sighed. He then observed his surroundings once more to see if some Naga managed to lived but there was none, so he ought to move forward.
Raven then marched back towards the opened doors of the castle. Without the Nagas blocking his way, he could now see and appreciate the interior of the main castle.
As soon as he entered, he was greeted by a massive statue of a woman with a crown and was holding a majestic trident on her right hand and some sort of a boulder on her left hand. Her lower body is that of a squid and despite being a woman, she has a very long beard that almost reached her stomach. Raven's eyes sparkled as he said:
”The Kraken Priestess.”
