BXBX NOVEL Chapter 307 Damp Earth
The earth elder manipulated the earth, molding out a hand that he used to pick up the water elder.
She was still in a weak state, and unable to make any long-distance movements. The molded hand was used to carry the water elder away from where the battle was ongoing.
He watched the hand take the water elder away, and when he saw that they had gone a considerable distance away from them, he turned his head back to Cerberus who was already starting to recover from the attack.
Cerberus got its body off the ground and continued its attack on them.
The earth elder moved before Cerberus could release its fire attack. He sprouted out spikes from the earth and stabbed the part of Cerberus\'s body that was exposed to the ground.
Unlike before when the spikes had no problem going through Cerberus, the outcome this time was unexpected for the earth elder.
When the earth spikes made contact with Cerberus\'s body, it shattered starting from the tip that touched its body, down to the last part of it connected to the earth.
eαglesnᴏνel The earth elder\'s molded spike came crashing down before his eyes. The first thing he did when he saw the outcome, was to move away from Cerberus, and at the same time issue a warning to the others.
"Be careful. Its defense has been fortified". The earth elder yelled out, warning the others about Cerberus\'s body modification, and its attribute to bounce off spikes made out of the earth.
They heed the warning of the earth elder, and they all made some distance between themselves and Cerberus.
They gathered in one place to discuss their mode of attack, and ways they can coordinate their movements and produce maximum damage with efficient movements.
Cerberus did not give them any time to spend on their discussion, as it hurried its attack once more.
It charged at them with its hefty body and at a terrifying pace. They dispersed themselves, each taking a different turn to confuse Cerberus.
Cerberus on the other hand, kept it cool and went after the one that was in front of it.
It was Monryck. Cerberus went after him, hot on his heels and not losing a distance away from him. Its heavy body does nothing to slow down its speed as it continues to overlap the distance between it and Monryck.
If things were left be as it is, Cerberus would eventually catch up to Monryck. The outcome of that happening is a scene that should be left in his imagination.
Theron turned around and ran in the direction of Cerberus and Monryck, to help him out against the gatekeeper that is going after him.
Meanwhile, Cerberus was close to covering the full gap separating it and Monryck.
It decided to forgo trying to catch up to Monryck and instead opted for burning Monryck alive by raining down its fire on him.
From all three mouths, it rained down its fire on Monryck. With the distance between the both of them, the fire would undoubtedly get to Monryck faster than he can run out of its range.
It will happen, unless, there is a foreign accelerating force that adds to Monryck\'s speed and temporarily raises his agility.
That accelerating force did happen. Shortly after Cerberus rained down its fire from all three mouths, The wind elder who saw that he was in danger, positioned herself to Monryck\'s left-hand side, and from there, she released a blast of wind in the form of a ball tornado in Monryck\'s direction.
The ball of wind straight up blasted through any obstacles that stood in its way until it got to Monryck.
Fortunately for Monryck, the ball of wind was able to get to him faster than the fire rained itself down on him.
The ball of wind grabbed Monryck and took him away from the range of the fire and along with its momentum of crashing through obstacles before coming to a halt.
When the ball of wind dispersed, Monryck was left with outer physical damage as a result of the ball of wind scooping him along. Even if it was a means to save his life, it wasn\'t a friendly way of doing so.
Monryck however was not about to complain. It was either he gets physically assaulted by the ball of wind, or he dies as a result of burning to death by the fire unleashed from Cerberus\'s mouth.
Monryck got up and looked in the direction of the wind elder that was far opposite to where he was.
He made an eye gesture as a way of thanking her for saving his life. Monryck was not the only one who looked in the wind elder\'s direction.
Cerberus who had its attack interfered with was mad, really annoyed at the one responsible for it.
It turned its attention to the wind elder and ran in her direction. The earth elder intercepted Cerberus in its haste by manipulating the ground beneath Cerberus\'s feet.
He figured, if his attack won\'t have any direct effect on its body, then the best good thing is to attack the source holding down its footing.
The earth elder used his ability to turn the constitution of the earth beneath Cerberus from stoned earth to a damp moldy earth.
A weak earth constitution plus an oversized dog standing on it would result in the oversized dog getting swallowed into the moldy earth.
His plan worked, and Cerberus was slowly going deeper into the earth, but not without putting up a fight of its own.
Cerberus breathed out fire from its mouth and set it in the direction of the Earth elder.
To avoid the ball of fire, the earth elder had to temporarily halt what he was doing to the earth beneath Cerberus.
Even though he was interrupted and prevented from sinking Cerberus further into the earth, the earth elder was not disappointed with what he has managed to accomplish.
Half of Cerberus\'s body was already buried beneath the ground. All that remains is getting the other half in.
