Chapter 387 The White Steel Bladed Beas (2/2)
Electricity began unfurling from Da Zi's body and wrapping itself like vines around Goldie. Then Da Zi discharged all the electricity from its body!
Hum, hum, hum...
A dull electrical hum echoed in the air. Goldie's muscles began bulging and spasming uncontrollably. A strange sound could be heard as Goldie's body began to grow and gleam with purple light...
”All monsters who are bigger than me will feel my wrath,” growled the White Steel Bladed Beast as it lowered itself into a crouch. Without warning, it launched itself towards Gao Peng in a white blur. A powerful wind howled from its shell, as if another monster was living inside it.
The wind swirling around its body began picking up speed until it turned into a layer of green light.
The White Steel Bladed Beast's body began shrinking as it approached its target. It then became apparent that its 30-foot-tall appearance was nothing more than an illusion. The size-altering effect of the Guise Fruit that the White Steel Bladed Beast had ingested not too long ago was dispelled almost instantly when its wind elemental energy began circulating in its body.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Arcs of green light sliced through the air. Due to the incredible speed it was moving at, the White Steel Bladed Beast was able to corner Flamy in the air with the traces it had left in its wake.
Flamy was completely surrounded. At that moment, it could feel a slight pang of panic.
Flamy began shedding its feathers from its body. Its feathers gradually formed a fiery shield before it, which streaks of fire burst forth from. Without warning, a streak of green light collided with Flamy's fiery shield like a sharp dagger.
Boom!
The fiery shield exploded the moment the White Steel Bladed Beast's attack pierced through it.
Flames exploded in all directions, spreading out like a red fiery lotus in the air. The resulting shockwave sent Flamy flying in the opposite direction and the White Steel Bladed Beast in a downward spiral towards the ground.
Arcs of green light pierced through the flames and whipped up a fiery cyclone in the air.
”Help Flamy, quick,” said Gao Peng. Goldie and Dumby leaped into action without hesitation.
”Be careful, Gao Peng. This guy has incredibly explosive power,” muttered the Desolate Frost Lion.
The data frame had indeed emphasized the White Steel Bladed Beast's explosive power. However, Gao Peng had never thought of the data frame's information as an accurate representation of reality.
For instance, monsters that supposedly specialized in defense, at least according to their descriptions in the data frame, never lasted long in a fight with Goldie.
”This guy's really powerful. I've seen monsters like it take out other monsters of the same level in a single shot,” said the Desolate Frost Lion again, noticing that Gao Peng didn't seem to be taking the White Steel Bladed Beast seriously.
This time, Gao Peng took the lion's advice seriously. He ordered Flamy, Goldie, and the others to keep their guard up through their Blood Contracts.
At that moment, Goldie was engaging the White Steel Bladed Beast.
Thanks to Da Zi triggering its passive ability beforehand, Goldie now stood approximately 20 feet tall. The three-foot-tall White Steel Bladed Beast before the duck couldn't even reach its knees. This was what the battle between David and Goliath would look like if the White Steel Bladed Beast was a scrawny boy and Goldie an enormous Philistine.
The White Steel Bladed Beast fearlessly charged at Goldie like a warrior going up against a seemingly undefeatable evil. Deftly avoiding a punch from Goldie, it sprang forward and held its silver blade-like appendages in the shape of a cross before its chest. Wind elemental energy began concentrating around them.
In an instant, the White Steel Bladed Beast's attack struck Goldie's chest.
The impact was so powerful that it sent Goldie flying backward, crashing through a couple of trees behind it before it finally rolled to a stop on the ground. A huge tree then fell on Goldie's body, pinning it to the ground.
Goldie's chest was rising and falling rapidly, its breathing now ragged. There was a terrible cross-shaped wound on its chest. It was so deep that a bit of bone could be seen poking out from it.
