BXBX NOVEL Chapter 193 - Earth Wyvern
A ground-shaking thud sent a gust of wind in all directions. At the same time, I could feel a gaze lock into me from within the shadows as a creature with green and brown eyes looked into my eyes menacingly. I could feel the immeasurable killing intent that was so dense it would probably cause mercury to float.
"YOU! YOU FILTHY HUMAN DARE STEAL MY TRESSURE!" I roared in anger
"Do I look like a human?" I snorted in disdain before flashing with golden lighting and disappearing from my location.
The moment I did that, a humanoid figure with mossy rock-like scales walked out of the shadow and looked towards the location I went towards with ferocious killing intent.
The next instant, wings started to protrude out of its back, however, unlike its mossy green and gray scales, its wings were brown and green, almost like the colors of a tree. Green and brown energy flashed within the eyes of the humanoid creature while its dragonic maw opened up to release a sky-shaking roar that told everything in the forest what was about to go down. Consequently, enormous amounts of beasts started to run out of the forest or in a different direction from the dragonic humanoid.
However, some did go towards the city, making the guards have to be on guard after seeing such huge swarms of beasts running towards their directions.
"Is this a beast tide?!" One of the mercenaries who were nearby at the time asked while cleaving down at a deer.
"I\'m nor sure, but if it is we will have to call for reinforcement from the other cities nearby" Another mercenary shouted while dodging an attack from a serpent-like creature that immediately fled away from the mercenary towards another direction that would both avoid the city yet get as far away as possible from the city.
"HEY WAIT! DON\'T ATTACK THEM!" A swordsman with glasses finally roared, making all the other mercenaries jump back while defending or stop casting their spells before switching to defending ones. However, what surprised them was the fact that these beasts did not attack them and instead ran around them before aiming to run around the forest.
"They are running..." A mage felt her face become cold and drained of blood while others felt their hearts skip a beat out of fear of what these beasts could be running from.
"Wait... Is that Duke tier beast!" An archer shuddered while moving back even more. Everyone who was in front of him looked towards a lead-colored rabbit that had constant surges of electricity go through its fur. At the same time, behind it ran over 50 one meter to half a meter tall rabbits. the one leading the rabbits was around 10 meters tall and was releasing a powerful magical aura. Yet even then you could almost taste the fear and terror it was feeling towards whatever was in the forest.
A few stay packs of beasts could be seen, one of the fastest ones being a pack of around 20 rabbits, the one leading them being around 2 meters tall while also being in the Lord tier.
"We need to warn the mayor... NOW!" One shouted
"ON IT!" A scout roared and disappeared from his place, killing any beast that was in his way before shooting towards the center of the city without going through any of the gate checks.
A few minutes later, a blaring alarm went off waking up every person in the entire city with a sense of distress.
***
In the forest, one could see constantly flashes of golden lights followed by a green-brown beam of light shooting across the skies with an aura powerful enough to crush a mountain under its pressure.
\'What is his power level?\'
[...]
\'HELLO! DON\'T GO SILENT ON ME NOW!\' I roared inwardly.
[Divine eyes are currently undergoing an upgrade. Please wait for -5:56:32-]
"WHAT THE FUCK!" my blood was almost boiling with rage. This bitch dared to tell me to eat the fucking marble just to leave me here all by myself!
However, I could do nothing about it right now so I simply gritted my teeth and sucked it up along with the traumatizing amount of pain I was currently going through. My organs were literally being destroyed, turned into a paste before being reconstructed, all in an instant without stopping.
"HUMAN!" The roar was closer than before making me inwardly curse and try to move faster. I was currently keeping flash steps in case I were to get into any close combat. hand to hand battles where retreating several hundred meters in the blink of an eye is more than useful than running away for a few more minutes before being eventually caught.
Instead, I quickly silently activated the Hermes\' boots onto might feet before reducing my weight with gravity magic and simultaneously casting a Light element body enhancement spell onto myself, allowing me to run even for a bit longer, or at least until my clones finish doing what I told them to do.
I continued to run for around 15 minutes before I felt a slight sense of exhaustion. My breathing had started to become heavy while my speed was slowly dwindling, yet I still had enough mana to go for a few more hours. The real problem came from the pain I was going through that gave me an imaginary sense of exhaustion that really wasn\'t there. If my mental strength wasn\'t as powerful as it is now with the combination of mind-influx and my natural mental power, I would have probably been crippled under the pain.
After running for a little longer, I simply gave up on running and concluded I was far enough already and did not have to run any further.
"You have finally accepted your fate human? Or should I say, divine being?" a primordial voice descended down from the skies onto me, making me shiver slightly under its pressure. However, even though it might seem terrifying at first glance, I had to make sure that I did not fall under someone\'s mere pressure. After all, I am a divine being with the sin of Pride.
"You think I gave up, Lizard?" A cruel grin tugged at the corners of my mouth.
Hearing my words, the pressure only grew heavier, yet it only felt like the pressure of someone slightly stronger than me rather than the pressure of someone who is likely in the Diamon tiers of the Peak Gaseous stage.
