1760 Rock Fang: Queen of the Nights Bind (1/2)
Edited by Aelryinth
Tao Jing had successfully made the Rock Monster angry. It jumped onto a building and tore its roof off with brute force, lifting it above its head!
BANG!
The Rock Monster tossed the roof at her. Tao Jing backed away in a panic and hid behind a warehouse. To her surprise, the Rock Monster's strength was absolutely terrifying. Not only did the hurled roof smash the warehouse into pieces, it even knocked her into the air!
Tao Jing was covered in ash and cuts inflicted by the flying debris. She gasped in pain as blood poured out from her wounds.
”Tao Jing, don't force yourself, let me handle it!” Lin Qihui quickly ran forward when he saw Tao Jing was injured.
The Rock Monster had already jumped down from the building. Its huge body landed right in front of Lin Qihui. He had initially steeled himself to face the creature, yet he could not help but panic when the Rock Monster landed in front of him with a huge crash.
”Rock...Rock Barrier!” Lin Qihui quickly set up a Rock Barrier to separate the creature from him and Tao Jing, trying to buy some time.
The Rock Monster simply ignored the Rock Barrier, smashing through it with its shoulder like a rugby player. The Rock Barrier shattered like a bubble. It was obvious that an Intermediate Spell Rock Barrier that was not enhanced by a Soul Seed was nowhere enough to withstand the blow!
”Quick, run!” Lin Qihui grabbed Tao Jing's hand and cast Earth Wave when he realized how unfavorable the situation was.
Lin Qihui was very good at using Earth Wave. They managed to flee fifty meters away from the Rock Monster while it broke through the Rock Barrier, and found a spot to hide behind some containers.
”Luckily, that creature isn't fast. We should be able to shake it off if it tried to chase us,” Lin Qihui let out a relieved sigh.
The Earth Element was very effective at increasing one's speed when it was not being used for defense. Earth Mages had the lowest death rates in the wild. Lin Qihui was relieved they had gotten to cover in time!
The Rock Monster stared in the direction the two had fled in. It suddenly let out a huge roar and smashed its right fist on the ground!
The roads and streets in the city were made of concrete. The concrete suddenly began to ripple in a strange way after the Rock Monster touched it. It surprisingly softened and started wriggling toward the Rock Monster!
”What's going on? Why is the ground moving!?”
”Damn it, help, it's dragging us toward it!”
The concrete for over a hundred meters around the Rock Monster had turned into a wriggling rug. All the buildings and warehouses were slowly moving toward the Rock Monster!
”That thing is using Earth Magic too. It's an Earth Elemental creature!” Tao Jing shouted.
”I know that, but what else can we do!?” Lin Qihui yelled back in fear.
