Chapter 919: Earth Region 3.
"Master, there seems to be a lot of bad news for us," Legion said.
"And what could be worse than facing a troublesome Tier 7 demonic beast that seems to have no opening?" Alec asked, already unsheathing his Bloody Changdao.
A split second later, another roar thundered behind him, shaking the ground violently, without even turning, Alec already knew what was there.
"Well... are two Tier 7 demonic beasts not worse?" Legion asked back, however now wasn't the time for banter between Alec and his golem.
Alec scanned the area, only to realize the system spirit golem was nowhere in sight.
"Just what I need—him disappearing again," Alec muttered, irritated at how useless the system spirit always seemed in moments like this.
Still, he didn't dwell on it, after all he knew well enough how the spirit acted.
"Oni, Butcher, Hunter—you're with me. Titan, Legion, Magnito, Saint and Hive Queen, handle the other one. I don't care how you do it, just make sure you survive and keep that beast away from this second one, understood?" Alec barked before dashing toward the newly emerged demonic beast caterpillar, looming just meters away.
【> Bloodline Ability – Morph Special Ability – Energy Eyes Second Seal – Unlock <]
Though he could wield weapons in his werewolf form, however, Alec knew his claws were his strongest strength in his new form.
Since he was still unfamiliar with the overwhelming power of his transformed body, he had chosen to unlock the Changdao's second seal to augment his claws further instead.
His aura shifted drastically as his long black claws transformed into a blood-red shade, even his Qi now tainted with a crimson hue.
Sensing this surge in Aura and Realm, the caterpillar turned its focus on Alec.
But by then, Butcher had already leapt high above its head, dragging his thunder axe downward, lightning crackling wildly as it drew elemental particles from the air.
At ground level, Oni gripped his reaper scythe with both hands, swinging it in a wide arc that unleashed a crescent-shaped wave of dark energy. Meanwhile, mid-range, Hunter launched his hooked left hand toward the caterpillar, aiming for a direct strike.
They had coordinated perfectly, each targeting a different point on the beast's body, certain at least one of their attacks would land.
But to their shock, the caterpillar did the unexpected, it curled itself into a massive ball, its hardened carapace facing outward to shield its vulnerable parts.
Bang!
The first strike to connect was Butcher's lightning axe, the moment it smashed against the top of the caterpillar's body, a jarring force shot back at him, his arms trembled with numbness as he felt part of his own power rebound against him, amplified rather than diminished
The lightning element didn't harm him, but the physical backlash was far greater than he expected, the caterpillar's carapace didn't just defend—it reflected, returning attacks with even more intensity.
Using the momentum from the rebound, Butcher twisted mid-air and retreated not wanting to be caught in the range of the demonic beast's next attack.
Next came Oni's attack, his dark arc slammed into the beast with a screeching wail, carving a line across its shell.
But the energy soon faded, leaving behind only a shallow mark, tinged with residual dark mana, his strike had failed to pierce through as well.
However, unlike the others, Hunter found success, his hooked hand shot forward and latched onto a small exposed gap in the caterpillar's body, tearing through its skin.
It wasn't deep, but it was damage—the first real wound inflicted by Alec's group.
Screeech!!!
The caterpillar shook violently, uncoiling from its ball form, in doing so, the embedded hook was dragged along, yanking Hunter into the air as the beast rose to its full towering length.
It wasn't a major wound, but at that moment Alec's Energy eyes caught it, a flaw in what had seemed
like an impenetrable defence, a weak point had finally been revealed.
