Even the black-flame phoenix and dark cloud refused to draw closer at this time. It was the same for Han Sen, who chose to only watch the gallons of blood stain the black sand.
”Roar!”
The white rhino roared to the skies and its skin cracked like charred earth, as blood gushed out of its crevices.
Han Sen was frozen. The rhino was as big as a mountain, and it was as if he was watching one crumble to the ground.
”Roar!”
The white rhino's flesh peeled away, ceaselessly unraveling. Beyond the blinding lights, he could make out the shape of its disintegrating skeleton. More and more streams of blood began to appear, like the birth of mountain waterfalls. And all the while, the motionless rhino cried out in agony.
”If this was going to happen, why did it so greedily want to eat the fruit? It's like it chose to self-destruct.” Han Sen sighed. He believed death was the only conclusion to the rhino's current suffering.
Boom!
The white rhino's skin was torn to shreds, and heaps of its soggy, frayed flesh dislodged themselves from its bone and fell to the ground. The holy light began to dim as a mound of mushy meat collapsed.
The surrounding area of the desert had been stained red, and streams of blood began to form; the body's crater acting as a source. The white rhino was living out its final few breaths, exhausted faster by its strained cries for aid. Its bones were all exposed and naked, and it shivered in agony. Such pain was difficult to comprehend.
Seeing the white rhino now unable to fight, Han Sen turned his gaze to the black-flame phoenix and cloud-creature to see if they'd make a move.
They looked as desperate as ever, but still, they did not dare to fly down.
Han Sen frowned, but as he did so, he heard a mix of noises. It sounded like an army was approaching.
He turned around to take a look and jumped. Along the ground and even from the skies above, countless creatures were running his way.
Han Sen could see insects, birds, and animals of all varieties coming towards him. They were everywhere. They were all coming for the now-fleshless rhino like a tsunami.
Han Sen quickly summoned his little angel and prepared for a fight. It was to be a hot and sweaty battle, with the number of opponents headed his way.
But the creatures ignored him. They all raced past him, with an insatiable lust for the white rhino.
Han Sen had seen most of these creatures before, and they weren't particularly high-class creatures or anything. They were a mixture of ordinary, mutant, and sacred-blood class creatures.
It looked as if they had been summoned by something. With disregard for everything else, they all bee-lined directly for the rhino.
As Han Sen watched them rush there, he suddenly heard the frightening sound of a gargantuan bird ring out. He turned around to see a black hellfire rain from the sky to incinerate countless numbers of the newly-come creatures.
The black-flame phoenix flapped its wings, unleashing concentrated storms of fire to halt the approach of the creature-army that had just arrived.
Thunder also sounded from inside the dark clouds, and netted webs of green lightning formed to ensnare and char those below.
