Chapter 1191: The Monster's Real Body
The moment William said his last words, he started madly dashing around. This time, he had a trajectory and destination to reach. Using his spirit sense, Fang was finally able to link the dots and realised what William was aiming for.
"I'll barbecue that area once you pass," he said to William, and the latter didn't take more than twenty seconds to reach the side of his monstrous weapons.
"Make sure to not hit my arrays," William icily said, while waving an arm, and his monstrous weapons activated their arrays. The spirit power regeneration arrays felt like they were unable to do anything against the monster's berserk ability. And yet William gulped more elixirs while looking closely at the incoming monster.
"Now!" he shouted, while controlling his monstrous weapons to release torrents of wind and gravity. The incoming massive black cloud was already getting hit by Fang's lightning, and now it got to face William's double attack.
*Roar!*
This time the monster didn't get sent away like before. It simply stood motionless in place for a few seconds, before a mighty roar came and with it lots of spikes came forward.
They didn't aim just for William, but mainly for his monstrous weapons. "Sh*t! You want me to call them back? Fck you!" William didn't hesitate to order four monstrous weapons to step up and take the hit directly, shielding others.
At the same time, he took the remaining four monstrous weapons out, deployed them to compensate for the destroyed weapons.
The spikes looked dangerous, yet in fact they didn't do much harm more than leaving behind lots of gaps in the monstrous weapons. William looked at such a result, and couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
"Even if it looks dangerous, it's still weakened by all these hits," he muttered to himself, and yet he didn't stop the newly added weapons to join the rest.
Instead, he gave them the order to build two arrays, all defencive. Even if the monstrous weapons escaped a close death call, it wasn't guaranteed they'd still be standing after frequent attacks from that monster.
As the monster was halted in its tracks, and its initial outburst of spikes didn't take down any of his monstrous weapons, William felt more confident than ever.
"Keep showering it," he said to Fang, "just stay away from my lads."
"As if you are making it easy on me," Fang gritted his teeth, "you added four more. Do you want me to go nuts?"
"Just focus, we are almost there," William resisted the urge to laugh at such a situation, and yet he showed a smile on his face.
As Fang struggled to keep up, William's weapons started to do their magic. At this moment, William didn't stand idle like before. He knew adding any pressure would accelerate the fall of this monster.
He took out the remaining flying weapons of his, and started to come at the black cloud. From time to time, he'd dash out to evade the incoming spikes, before dashing towards the monster and hitting it with everything he got.
One minute passed, twenty passed, an hour passed, and the two of them were coming hot at the monster, and the latter kept fighting back.
Yet starting from the second hour, the monster showed sluggishness in its movement. William questioned why the monster didn't pull back and retreat, escaping the situation it was facing right now. And in the third hour, he got his answer.
The monster wasn't able to do so, or it feared once it got pushed back, it'd lose all the momentum it accumulated. This got clear when after two and half hours, the monster finally got thrown backwards by the combination of wind and gravity arrays.
The moment it flew back, it fell to the ground, rolled on itself, leaving behind a huge trail, looking like a deep groove. At the same time, violent rumbling and shaking happened to the world, with it being the last one to come.
"It's down!" William was vigilant and ready for the monster to come back and attack again. And yet the latter didn't, and sat on the ground, struggling to get back up. The black cloud began to dissipate, showing the real shape of that monster.
It had a pale white skin, with eyes at its shoulders, and a head that looked like an ox. William knew this was the real body of the monster as he recognised it right on the spot.
Yet that all came as a shock for Fang. He thought that black cloud was the real body of the monster, but now he realised he was deeply wrong.
The monster that caused all this trouble to him and William wasn't a giant to begin with. It was just using a trick to enlarge its body, and it looked nothing more than a normal human, or a bit bigger.
"Keep hitting it," William felt Fang's lightning attacks didn't come as hard as before. So he had to awaken the old man from his momentarily daze or his messed up moment of judgement, "it's not that safe or weak, it's very dangerous now."
"For real?!" Fang was indeed surprised by these words, and yet he returned to focus and shower that monster with more lightning.
"It can now move faster than before," William's words landed, and that monster roared, raised itself using a long tail, before it started to flash fast, evading most of the incoming lightning at it.
"Damn! How come it can move this fast?!!!"
"Just focus, it has to come at me and take me down, so…" William was about to tell Fang to focus on the monster while it got affected by his monstrous weapons' arrays. And yet in the middle of his words, something unexpected happened.
"Watch out! It's coming for you!" Instead of targeting William, the monster seemed to hold a deep grudge against the other humans who kept showering him with lightning.
