9 Ruins from the Ancient Era (1/2)
Rainer spent the following week in meditation and practicing his skills with Lerna.
His cultivation had not increased but their combat co-operation reached new levels.
A month and a half until the tournament among the youth Guardians of the clan, Rainer headed back into the Mist Woods.
Passing the control at the entrance of the city, he took a completely different path from the one he had taken the last time, although they had improved on the use of their skills, their lack of combat experiences became an urgent matter.
”We must be cautious this time, I don't want to repeat the same story from last week.”
By precaution, Rainer and Lerna went down a path that many Guardians had already crossed, where the powerful beasts had already been eliminated for resources and security reasons.All that remainedwere beasts that could be considered weak in the eyes of Guardians, this was information that Alisha gave to Rainer after he had shown his resolve.
On the way, they came across ordinary beasts that would flee when they felt their auras. This was the so-called spiritual pressure, it affected the psyche of weaker beings, making them think twice about it before starting something.
After a whole afternoon spent in search, they came across a target.
A boar at least twice the size of a normal one with metal horns.
This was a very common magic beast in these woods, a Steel-horned boar!The aura of the wild boar indicated that its cultivation was in the Early Manifestation Stage.
This magical beast had a strong charge capacity, if it rammed you with its horns, you'd be a sieve.
”His strong point, his onslaught, is also his downfall. We just have to guide him to the rocks and inertia will do the rest.”
Rainer quickly threw a corrosive projectile at the boar, getting its attention.
”I rely on you, Lerna!”
Rainer ran swiftly towards the mountain, behind him an angry boar was chasing him.
”That's it, follow me, your obstinacy will be your bane.” Rainer reached the bottom of the cliff where Lerna was waiting for him.
After seeing Rainer, Lerna threw her corrosive saliva on the surface of the rocks along the way, making them an acidic mass.
*Hop*
Rainer jumped the acid dough and he avoided the boar's charge.
After seeing its target changing his direction, the boar proceeded to follow him, but did not notice that the ground in front of him decomposed and he was unable to turn.
The boar tried to escape from its fate but was useless.
*Boom*
The boar's muzzle crashed into the cliff wall. Rainer watched in slow motion as its horns were buried into the wall and its muzzle became deformed from the impact.
After the collision, the boar tried to chase Rainer again, but that's when he realized that its horns were stuck in the wall!
Turning its gaze to Rainer, the boar saw how he drew a spear and approached in it.
*Roar*
The boar, who knew it had fallen into a trap of the young human, tried to escape its fate.
”If you have no strength, use your wits. I'm sorry, buddy....”
Xiu!
Rainer pierced the boar's neck with the end of his spear, extinguishing the light from its eyes.
After killing the boar, Rainer proceeded to the dismantling of it, its meat was tasty and its horns could be used to manufacture weapons.
”These horns will be enough for a good spear, this one has already broke after killing the boar.”
Rainer's iron spear was an ordinary spear, after several attacks on the boar's skin, the tip broke.
After the horns were removed from the wall, the floor began to shake when both the wall and the floor collapsed.
”Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh”
*Splash*
After a long fall that ended with a dive, Rainer swam to the surface.
