Chapter 424: Disadvantage (1/2)

BZZZZ!

Gravis immediately transformed into lightning as the tree-trunk shot at him with incredible speed. The speed of the ape was incredible, and Gravis needed to anticipate the attack to dodge. Otherwise, his speed wouldn't be fast enough to evade the wide trunk.

SSSSSSSS!

A sizzling and powerful cloud of something green shot at Gravis from the lizard's mouth. The lizard had waited to see where Gravis would evade to and shot his attack at that position. Gravis immediately transformed back and summoned a lot of ore between himself and that green cloud.

The ore immediately started sizzling as it was quickly corroded into nothing. In less than a second, the 100 meters of ore completely vanished into nothing. Luckily, this gave Gravis enough time to flee the area of the breath.

'Acid,' Gravis concluded. Gravis knew a lot about materials, and the fact that this breath had been so effective against Mid Unity Rank materials showed that it wasn't poison. This was actually acid. Poison and venom were more effective on living matter, while acid was more effective on dead matter.

'Yet, acid is also quite effective against natural armor, like scales, for example,' Gravis thought with narrowed eyes. 'My scales won't help me at all if I get hit by that.'

BZZZ!

Gravis barely dodged another hit from the trunk, but the ape wasn't stupid. A punch came from the ape's other hand immediately after the trunk had missed.

BANG!

Gravis transformed back and moved all his power into his body to block the attack. He held his massive saber in front of him to block. Of course, he wasn't blocking with its flat side, but with its edge. Blocking with the flat side would only destroy the saber.

CRCK! Psh!

Yet, the saber still broke under the ape's overwhelming power. The saber was made of Middle Unity Rank material, but Gravis couldn't utilize its full potential. Because of that, the saber could only be considered as an Early Unity Rank weapon.

At least Gravis' saber managed to leave a deep cut inside the ape's fist.

Several pieces of the broken saber shot at Gravis, but his scales were powerful enough to block these fragments. Then, he turned to his right.

BANG!

Gravis summoned another saber to block an attack from the lizard. Yet, this time, his saber managed to hold. Instead of feeling relieved, Gravis felt more nervous now. The lizard should also be able to destroy his saber. The fact that the attack wasn't powerful enough showed that the lizard had something else planned.

BANG!

Gravis saw the tail coming too late. He could have transformed into lightning, but he wouldn't have been able to evade. If the tail hit him while Gravis was inside his Lightning Form, he would use up most of his power. That's why he didn't transform into lightning. The tail hit Gravis and destroyed a lot of his scales. On top of that, the tail shot him into the distance with incredible power.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Gravis shot through several mountains until he hit the earth. The sudden stop made him spit out some blood. His scales had done incredible work, but the power difference between him and his enemies was just too great. Because of that, several of his organs had been damaged from the impact. Luckily, his bones didn't break, thanks to his scales.

BOOOOM!
