The area inside the mist that was always filled with the cries and roars of multiple wild Beasts was silent now. A creature could be seen surrounded by the corpses of multiple beasts. A small pool of blood surrounded the bodies. From the traces, it could be guessed that they had been slaughtered recently.
The creature with a crystalized, pointy shell enjoyed the meat delicately. The sounds of chewing and breaking bones could be heard. It was savoring every piece of meat it ate. It kept eating before it burped in satisfaction; its bulging belly was proof of how much it had eaten.
Everything was going right for the creature. He was enjoying his time in the shade, but it was as if someone could not watch him happy. He saw multiple projectiles made of Ice approaching him from above. The Beast was enraged; it roared, opened its mouth, and released a strange bubble.
Buble grew in size the moment it came out and surrounded its body. The Beast roared again, and the area around him in a circle started shining blue. Multiple fish made up of water elements appeared near it. Then these strange fish started raging at the upcoming projectiles, trying to intercept them.
The first wave from the rain of Icy Spears was easily intercepted. The next wave of Icy spears hit the barrier and destroyed it. For the third wave, the second batch of fish-like projectiles, which Rishi named Fishy Missiles, was ready, and as they came into contact with each other, multiple explosions appeared.
If the Icy Spears are like spears of destruction that froze their opponents hearts, then the fishy missiles were unpredictable and mighty waves that crashed without fear and took multiple Icy Spears with them, Although the result was not good. Rishi's lips curled up.
He was analyzing all his opponent's moves; he knew that now that his barrier and Fishy missiles skills were on cooldown, the next wave of Icy Spear would surely land and do massive damage. As he smirked, a new wave of Icy Spears tore through the air, making a swish' sound as if enjoying the ride.
Icy Spears, releasing their chill presence, were just above the head of the creature and about to hit him, but what happened was something Rishi had not calculated. The shell of the Beast shone and increased in size, hiding the Beast inside it.
Next, multiple spears hit it, and the sound of multiple collisions appeared, As if a metal shield was getting hit by uncountable Arrows. When the attacks stopped, what appeared was a small hill made up of Ice; the land near it was covered in a layer of Ice, and the air contained Frost.
Rishi sighed, thinking that they had got him, but deep inside he knew it could not be that easy. While the Beaswt had numerous disadvantages, like being injured and being at its strongest in water and areas with water, it was not something that could be taken down easily.
'Crack' A sound appeared, the hill of Ice started to shake, and then a small explosion took place. The pieces of Ice crystals were scattered around, and from the dust, A creature appeared. It was perfectly fine; the only change would be small cracks on its white shell. It doesn't shine as beautifully as before.
The Beast released a massive roar that made everyone near the area shiver. Its flared-up red eyes were facing the sky. The area above was covered in mist, but the Beast could feel the presence of some creatures there. He flickered his tongue, and multiple blue-colored fish appeared again and shot towards the sky.
These fish moved and started searching through the mist; when the Beast saw that it was not working, he hissed. 'Boom, one after another, these fish exploded, throwing back the mist in the area. It continued for some time before the mist in that area scattered, and the sky was a little visible for the first time, but a cloud was hovering above the mist.
At first, the Beast was confused, but it soon understood what was going on. It released multiple fishy missiles and started attacking the cloud randomly. Rishi and his contract Beast struggled to defend, but at last they gave up on stealth and were finally revealed.
The Enraged Beast was further angered when he saw that the ones that had attacked him were not even of the Elite Stage. It was an insult to him. If his other competitors found this out, they would make fun of him every time he met them. This was something that it didn't want, so to stop this information from leaking, he had to permanently seal the mouths of these low lives. The good part was that he never intended to spare them anyway.
It raised its front two legs before stomping the ground. The zone around him now manifested itself quickly. The fish, made up of water eels, appeared around him. Soon, he had a small school of fish. He then released them towards Rishi. The Beast didn't stop there; his crimson eyes shone. A giant red portal appeared between Rishi and the Beast. The fish moved like bullets and entered it, disappearing from view. Rishi was confused, but it was then that he felt a chill through his body.
A massive red pool appeared around the Beast, and next, with a loud roar, A giant shark-shaped red fish appeared. It started moving towards Rishi. It was four meters longer and two meters wider, but its speed was similar to before.
Rishi commanded Vakar to defend before commanding Hansi to use Ice Enhancement to further strengthen the barrier. The two beasts followed his command and cast their spells quickly. Rishi had not chosen a shield-type skill that would give him greater defense on one side because he was not sure if this attack from his opponent could be controlled.
He soon got his answer when he saw the Beast using its neck to control the massive Shark made of magic. It changed its direction multiple times as it approached.
The barriers started forming one after another; unlike other barriers created by skills, These were made by controlling the clouds around him. They were weaker than the normal barriers, but the next moment, a loud chirp could be heard. A layer of Frost appeared and started covering all the barriers.
These additional Barriers were hidden in the cloud; only two were revealed to the opponent. Vakar was now using the cloud to move and change positions. The massive Shark attacked with a bite. Vakar moved the clouds, and they dodged the attack.
This happened two more times before the Shark used the bite attack again. Vakar sighed, thinking some people never learn, but his opinion changed the next moment. As soon as he moved his cloud a little upward, the Shark spun his massive body and slashed his tail. 'Boom! This unexpected attack hit like a truck, and the two outside barriers were smashed to dust.
Hopefully, the third barrier was able to stop the charge because of the cracks around it. The impact also threw Rishi and others back.
The Epic Beast didn't miss the chance to control the Shark again. The shark attacked with a bite again, which was dodged by Vakar, but he was soon outplayed again. Multiple small fish appeared from the shark's mouth and attacked them before exploding.
These attacks harmed the cloud, and now it was half its original size. Only one barrier was left. While Rishi and his contract Beasts were sweating from the vicious attacks of the opponent, The opponent was gritting his fangs. He roared again; it didn't have time to play with these weaklings.
The massive Shark split into two and started attacking; their speed increased as their size decreased. They started attacking from two sides, making it difficult to predict their attacks and dodge. They were also releasing fishy missiles from time to time to attack from range.
Hansi attacked the sharks, but his attack didn't do much damage as the opponent was not a living being; they were just creatures made up of energy. The barriers broke soon, and the cloud dispersed further. Even the Beasts got injured, and it looked like they were about to be eliminated.
The Epic Beast hissed A mocking grin appeared on his face; his opponents were just about to be eliminated, and his feet were ready to return to their mana pool. Then a dark smoke appeared around him; the darkness surrounded him, and then multiple small, purple, vertically placed eyes appeared.
When the Beast looked around and was not able to escape them, His eyes made contact with one of them. The eye looked at him as if it could see through his soul. Next, all eyes shone purple and released multiple rays that hit the Beast.
The Epic Beast wanted to move but found that he was not able to move even a muscle; without his interference, the Sharks stopped. A terrified expression appeared on the face of the Beast for the first time; he could feel his life was in danger.
