Chapter 389: Reign Of Disaster [Part 1]
He continued forward with the fierceness of an impregnable metallic wall. All four legs punched against the ground with incredible power.
Northern, above the pristine beast, leaned forward, his eyes focused to the front, radiating a soft blue light.
Suddenly, Mr. Fluffy came to an abrupt halt, swiftly shifting to the side and drifting forward, creating enough friction to reduce his incredible speed.
Northern frowned and asked, "What\'s wrong?"
The beast released a low growl and raised its head.
Northern narrowed his eyes, following Mr. Fluffy\'s line of sight.
His eyes widened. The sky was breaking like glass.
He looked forward. From his vantage point, it was possible to see the ruined castle.
It was much worse in that area; not only was the sky breaking, but monsters were flying out of
it.
Another part of the sky towards his back also began to break.
Northern opened his mouth a little, but no words came out.
\'What is going on? Rifts?\'
Not just one, not two, but three. All in the same area.
He jumped from Mr. Fluffy and kept his gaze upward, watching as the rift shattered into shards of glass that dissolved into the air like sparkles.
Like a horde of bees, monsters began to fly out. Some fell, some flew, filling the air with dreadfulness, painting the night even darker.
Northern opened his hands, black sparks igniting within them, and began to weave a rod into his grip.
As Grengar fully materialized, he plunged forward and met the first monster, a vicious, furless, bipedal monstrosity with a jagged row of teeth and one eye.
Northern twirled the twin-bladed staff upward and slashed across the monster\'s torso to its shoulders. He spun the weapon in the air and brought it down upon the other shoulder, tearing its hide downward in a spill of green gore.
Northern took no moment of respite and dashed towards his next target.
Mr. Fluffy also engaged in a feral show of dominance, pouncing upon every monster and viciously ripping them apart with his powerful fangs.
The beast did not care about the blood that stained his pristine fur and dove into battle with carnal ferocity.
Monsters clouded the dark sky, the majority of them sky-dominant creatures, flying across the air, screeching and plunging into the only opposition in their path.
Regardless, Northern was handling things well. His speed increased with time. He was constantly using Velocity Dash, not just on his legs.
He applied it to his whole body; his hand movements, speed, and reflexes all doubled.
This made dealing fatal blows to the monsters much easier before they saw it coming.
His proficiency with Grengar was getting amazingly better. The way he exchanged the twin- bladed staff between his hands while twirling it.
The blade edges on both ends blurred every time they swirled. He would suddenly shoot into a particular distance, abruptly stopping before a monster and tearing it apart with one end of the staff.
He spun swiftly and harvested the monster\'s head with the other end.
He never thought he would find himself so proficient with the weapon, at least not in such a short amount of time.
If he was to compare it with using swords, it was much easier to handle. There was a fluidity to it that he didn\'t quite experience with the sword.
Perhaps that was because it had blades on both ends.
Northern\'s movements became a blur of precision and deadly grace. Grengar whistled through the air, its twin blades carving intricate patterns of destruction through the horde of monstrosities.
His eyes flashed with that eerie blue light, tracking multiple targets simultaneously as he wove through the chaotic battlefield.
A winged creature with leathery skin and barbed talons swooped down, its maw stretched impossibly wide to reveal rows of needle-like teeth.
Northern didn\'t even break stride. He planted one end of Grengar into the ground, using it as a pivot to launch himself skyward.
The monster\'s shriek of triumph turned to a gurgle of surprise as Northern twisted in midair, bringing the staff around in a devastating arc that separated its head from its shoulders.
As Northern landed, he immediately dropped into a low crouch.
A massive, bear-like beast with too many limbs and eyes lumbered towards him, its roar shaking the very air.
Northern\'s lips curled into a grim smile.
He channeled more energy into Velocity Dash, feeling the familiar surge of power coursing through his veins.
In the blink of an eye, he was behind the creature.
Before it could even register his movement, Northern unleashed a flurry of strikes.
Grengar\'s blades sang as they sliced through flesh and bone, leaving deep furrows in the monster\'s hide.
The beast bellowed in pain and fury, spinning around with surprising speed for its bulk.
Northern danced away from its wild claws, each dodge scraping against his armor with white
sparks.
He could feel the rush of air from the creature\'s claws as they passed by his face.
But with Chaos Eyes, everything played out in slow motion, giving him ample time to
reposition and counterattack.
With a final, decisive thrust, Northern drove Grengar deep into the monster\'s chest.
The beast\'s roar died in its throat as it toppled backward, crushing several smaller creatures beneath its massive frame.
Northern allowed himself a moment to catch his breath, scanning the battlefield.
Mr. Fluffy was a whirlwind of destruction, his pristine fur now matted with gore and viscera.
The beast\'s jaws snapped shut on a flying creature, crushing its spine with a sickening crunch before tossing the limp body aside.
Their eyes met briefly, a silent communication passing between them.
Both knew that despite their prowess, they were vastly outnumbered.
The rifts in the sky continued to spew forth new horrors with every passing second.
Northern gritted his teeth, his grip on Grengar tightening.
He was nowhere near tired but was beginning to feel his pool of void essence hitting the bottom. Using Velocity Dash constantly was a bold move he never would have dared to use if not for the new ability of Limitless Void.
He only dared it because he had figured out a way to recharge his essence without having to
wait in the Limitless Void.
Not minding the state of his void essence, Northern pushed himself even further.
