Chapter 176 - Dont Trust The Fox (1/2)
”Don't you think exclaiming your technique out loud is the same as telling your adversary to prepare for your attack?”
The creepy cloaked woman gestured her hands. The ground was adsorbed layer by layer as it left lava-like scars from the alchemical action that she did. From the melting cloak sprouted numerous barriers that glazed at every inch of her existence, it crept and spreaded to the lava as artificial shields were born from it and ascended to the air, surrounding the woman.
The eye on the staff became stiff and it immediately hardened in response to the spell that its master had casted.
The numerous yin-yang orbs scattered to the sky as it soaked the elemental essence from the vicinity. It didn't dance like its proclaimed name. Instead, it was morphing into a void-like cube that was watching over the entire battlefield with no clear intentions of what it was going to do.
The fox put on a smug grin. ”Don't you think believing every word that a fox says is the same as digging your grave?”
It might be a prudish action made by the fox to summon numerous cube just to extract all kinds of elemental essence in the surrounding while the enemy was making herself comfy in her personal bunker, but the act of the extraction that the cube commencing was far more planned than a mere gimmick.
Guda had made the women sink half of her body into the ground with no clear idea of what those cubes were gonna do except extracting the essences. The witch didn't do anything for more than ten seconds while Guda was preparing more talismans to be deployed for her plan.
'It seemed like she had never fought a trickster before.' Guda would be drenched in cold sweat if not for her ongoing process of genetic modification. 'Still surprising that she didn't attack instead of going for a fortification, does she lack the fuel to penetrate my protection?'
The woman felt dumb. Irritated, she unharden her staff and swayed it to the sky. All of the protection that she casted was being absorbed into one point, creating a ball of destruction as the ground above it rose into two hands, cradling the energy as it got absorbed into those giant fingers, funneling into the ground and corrupting the nearby soil with purple goo-like substance.
Numerous ugly creatures began to rise from those goo; it was the very same humanoid that was waging a war with the Ouroboros on the far west battlefield from Domeniul Ceresc.
”Gueh!? They were ugly!” Guda had almost activated her vomit reflex fully, gagging.
”As long as the ritual has been enacted, they won't stop coming until the end of the time.” The creepy woman giggled. ”Although I did wonder how that pet of your was suddenly disappearing into the air.”
The fox smiled with confidence. ”Don't worry, I don't want him to get hurt on this battlefield.”
”You're strangely kind for a cunning fox.”
The witch started to aim for the numerous cube in the sky, as it sapped the elemental essence within the surrounding area, and most of her spells were focusing on the utilization of matter and energy from the surrounding area.
