Chapter 179 - Fall back (2/2)
”What do we do?” Martha asked, ”it's impossible, we can't take these three things down with just us two.”
”Just slow them down, we'll do whatever we can to slow them down while heading back to the academy, then Nes will hopefully be here by then.”

At the library, Dan and the two Twins weren't doing much better. The Slime snake had immediately shot out a slimeball from its mouth aiming towards Badger and Sloth. The two of them immediately dodged it remembering the sleeping effect the slime had.
Unfortunately, the slime hit a group of knights standing behind the two causing them to instantly fall asleep while being stuck on the ground.
”Avoid the green slime at all costs!” Badger shouted, ”We can come back for them later!”
Badger and Sloth moved forward and managed to manoeuvre themselves between the beast's legs but when they tried attacking their weapons bounced right off.
”Dam it!” Sloth shouted, ”Even Jack couldn't damage this thing how are we meant to?”
The two continued to move between its legs to distract the beast but all this could do was buy them some time. Eventually, the beast decided to ignore the two and started to once again focus on the knights.
”RUN!” A knight shouted. The knights immediately fell back and started to run towards the academy. The Slime Snake shot out another glob of green slime right at the knights.
The knights were fast but not fast enough, there were never going to be able to run away from the green slime. Then, just before the green slime had hit, Dan jumped in and whacked the green slime with his spear activating its special ability.
The spear flung the green slime back at the snake. However, the snake's body was agile and it simply twisted itself to avoid the slime.
”Monk, Badger we can't do anything here!” Dan shouted, ”We have to go back!”
The twins hated the idea of retreating but it was true there was nothing they could to the beast.

Ray was currently at the top floor of Avrion academy, he was slowly watching all the battles take place all over the city. He knew the beasts were strong and was hoping his Dragon Roar would have been able to turn the tides a little bit but it was useless.
Slowly Ray could see that all three groups were heading back to Avrion academy and any second now they would all be just outside the front.
Ray needed to do something to help but he didn't know-how. He needed to get down there fast but was afraid by the time he had eventually gotten down, the three groups would have already died.
Then suddenly, a familiar sound popped inside of Ray's head and a screen appeared.
”What perfect timing.”
