Chapter 158 A Losing Momentum
Everyone's eyes were widened by the sudden turn of events as they saw a girl who possessed a bee-like stinger on her back. Currently, that was inserted inside Roy's chest and went through the elder's head, who was hugging Roy.
The elder dropped dead on the ground after his head exploded.
At that moment, Vik and Grelia launched their attacks on this unknown beast girl, but their attack missed as she had already taken Roy to the sky with him dangling in her stinger.
Crac-Bang!
The ground beneath them collapsed, creating a narrow yet long crevice, and from it emerged beasts that had weaker strength but were in possession of great digging ability.
Vik and Grelia didn't drop down because of their flying capability, but the elders weren't as lucky, as they fell into it by surprise.
"AHHHHHHH!" At that moment, they heard a loud scream that shook the air and the ground violently.
Not only was it heard by Vik and Grelia, but the scream also reached the entire town's ears.
On Julie's side, she and others stopped to look at the main battlefield's direction. 'Something bad has happened.'
Julie and others made a quick assessment and wanted to see what had happened and who was the source of this voice. However, they couldn't leave with their hands full.
Julie attacked with anger and shouted. "Quickly kill these beasts! We only have a few left."
What Julie ordered made everyone hurry, and they didn't see it as a false morale boost as they could see the end and knew they could finish this at any moment.
Not only her but on the other side, where Fiona, Rag, and others were fighting, they tried to finish their fight as fast as possible.
The main battlefield.
Vik and Gelia watched in horror as blood started trickling out of Roy's eyes, mouth, nose, and ears.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Don't resist, become this queen's slave, and conquer this town for me." Nimona's soft yet seductive whisper worked like a charm, making Roy's body stop.
Vik and Grelia were shocked by the sudden change of events, so they hadn't thought of rushing and quickly saving Roy. Now that it had ended, Vik and Grelia flew toward Nimona, trying to kill her. They weren't worried about the elders, as the beasts were mostly in the Foundation Establishment Realm. They both were sure they could handle these.
"It is futile." Nimona glanced down at Vik and Grelia, making her grin from ear to ear. She took her stinger out of Roy's chest, then she lightly tapped on Roy's shoulder. "Show them what you got."
Roy didn't even look down at Vik and Grelia; instead, he did a peace sign and swiped those fingers up.
THRUD!
Sharp yet thick tree roots shot out from the ground, which grabbed Vik and Grelia's legs in an instant and then smashed them to the ground.
Bang
"Hehe," Nimona giggled, seeing the power and speed behind Roy's attack. She came beside him and leaned her body on his shoulder, she said while caressing the doll-like Roy. "I made the right choice trying to capture this big fish. I had been making a mistake for so many years. If I had just captured goods like you, I would have completed my goal so early. I should have gone for quality over quantity."
"But that doesn't matter." Nimona gloated at Vik, who was looking at her with seething anger. "I can take over this silly town with this nice baby, and…I want that and the other goodies too."
Vik stared at Nimona and asked with a grim face. "Who are you?"
"Oh~ Wanna join this queen's legion?" Nimona asked coyly. "I am dying to take someone like you."
"Answer me!" With a sudden shout, Vik shut off Nimona's demeanor.
"Don't be so impatient. I won't take you without introducing myself." Nimona said with a smirk on her face. "I am Nimona, Hypnotic Bee Prin- Queen."
"What are your goals? Just to take control over this tiny town?" Vik said, glancing at the beasts that were being cleared by the elders while he talked to Grelia mentally.
'Don't hold back.'
'Do you seriously want to kill him, or can we even do that?' Gelia asked with skepticism.
'It doesn't matter; I will do the killing part, and you will use your ability to stall him.'
'I hope you don't fumble.'
This happened in a span of a second, and Nimona wasn't able to hear any of this. But she did hear Vik's question. "Take over this town? Yes, that is indeed my goal, but it is only the beginning of my grand plan."
"I guess we have to squash that plan." Just as Vik finished saying it, he vanished from his spot, flying toward Nimona.
Grelia had armor and wings made of spiritual energy and IceFire, conjured up on her body. " [ Ice Queen's Incarnation ]"
Then Grelia also flew toward Nimona, following behind Vik.
Nimona waited silently with a smile on her face as she wanted to see how her newly found slave would destroy them, but she was met with a weird scenario.
Roy grabbed Nimona's hand and flew to the ground in a matter of seconds. Nimona was dumbfounded and worried if Roy had come to her senses; if so, then she knew she had a high chance of dying.
But that didn't seem to be the case as Roy stood before Nimona, protecting her. He looked up at Vik and Grelia, who had changed their flight trajectory and were diving down at them.
Roy raised his palm up while speaking with a hoarse voice. " [ Forest's Breath - Dancing Roots ] "
Hundreds of tree roots sprung out from the ground like the previous time and shot toward Vik and Grelia.
Grelia came forward and went to block the tree roots from hitting Vik. " [ IceLotus ] "
A twenty-meter radius lotus made of IceFire burst out from her sword, which froze the aggressive tree roots, but the ice broke the next second as there doesn't seem to be any ending to these.
" [ Seamless Sword - Star Thrusts ] " Vik came forward and used this technique to destroy the swarm of roots.
Grelia went from the side, to flank Roy while Vik kept him busy, but that wasn't fruitful as she got bombarded with sharp tree roots from the front and the side.
Like that, Vik and Grelia made some onerous effort to get close to Roy, but it was to no avail.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'Use that long-range attack now, I will use mine. But go the opposite of me.' Quickly instructing Grelia an order, Vik decided to use his other technique with this one to see if it did anything. " [ Seamless Sword - Metallic Hymn ] "
The weapons made of metal-like objects vibrated on each Vik's attack. Then, at one point, they burst toward Roy's direction after the completion of Vik's single thrust.
Roy didn't even glance at them as a dome made of wood covered Roy and Nimona. But the dome made of wood couldn't sustain itself despite being more durable than most of the strongest woods.
Slowly yet surely, the weapons chipped the wooden dome to the point where it was as thin as paper and was about to break completely when the vacant spot got filled, making it as new as the first time.
"Tsk." Vik clicked his tongue, seeing it not do much.
"Your cheap trick won't work here." Nimona gloated, hiding under the wooden dome.
Despite being far away and with all these noises around his surroundings, Vik was able to hear what Nimona said. "Sadly, that wasn't my actual goal."
Vik pulled his sword back and gave a simple yet fast thrust. " [ Seamless Sword - StarBurst ] "
A silver beam of energy shot out from the tip of Vik's sword, looking as if a star had just done its gamma-ray burst.
The silver beam narrow yet slightly thick destroyed anything on its and the tree roots weren't anything.
Nimona panicked a little, as she had felt it from afar when she was at her spot, and experiencing it firsthand made her know how dangerous it is that.
However, the moment Vik launched that attack, something was shot from behind too.
Nimona gave a short glance and saw an ice-blue beam galloping toward their direction, destroying anything it touched and freezing its surroundings too.
" [ Ice Dragon's Breath ] " Grelia was pointing her sword at them while being veiled by a transparent dragon made of IceFire.
Nimona had sweat running down her forehead, not knowing how they could dodge this as the speed they were approaching was too fast to escape.
However, someone was faster than those two, and it was Roy. He pressed his hand forward vertically like he was about to do a chop. He swiped his hand up, and pointed his finger at the sky while saying. " [ Nature's Touch - Mountain and River Chop ] "
BRIIIGGG
A pair of hundred-meter-thick wooden walls rose up from the ground miraculously, blocking the two beams' pathway.
BANG!
The beams hit the giant wooden walls and started piercing through them, but they weren't able to advance as the wooden wall would heal its injuries and grow even larger slowly but surely.
