Chapter 149: A Dangerous Battle
"Kana, these things are dangerous..." Aoi looked at the plant monsters with a bit of fear in her eyes. Although she was very strong, she still feared these flower monsters.
"Oh? Even if I hit them with [Water Breath]?" Kana asked.
"Mmm… I do not know why but I do not want to get close to these things at all." Aoi floated to the middle of Kana"s body, where she felt the safest.
"Well… I guess I can only attempt to try to pull one and see how it goes." Kana took a deep breath and prepared herself for the battle ahead.
Kana crouched down, lowering her body close to the ground as she shuffled around the edge of the tree line. She was looking for a flower monster that was far enough away from the others so she could pull it. Luckily after making her way to the other side of the pond, she finally spotted a single flower monster roaming around by itself. Kana picked up a rock and flicked it with her finger causing it to fly right at the flower monster"s head.
The rock soared through the air with lightning speed. But just before reaching the flower monster, a root shot out from it, striking the rock. Having the rock she threw being blocked did not surprise Kana, but having the rock not only blocked but turned into dust after being hit by the root.
*Skreeeee!!!!*
The flower monster suddenly let out a strange screeching sound which attracted all the other flower monsters around the pond. They all turned and looked in the spot kana was currently standing. "Kana, not good! You need to get out of here!" Aoi yelled.
Unfortunately, Aoi"s warning was a step too late as multiple roots came flying up from under Kana. "s.h.i.+t!" Kana jumped back and twisted her body, trying to evade the roots but one still stabbed right through her right rear leg. When it did Kana, felt as if something was sucking her dry. "What the h.e.l.l is this!?"
[HP]: 90000-> 75034/90000
Kana [HP] dropped by a lot from a single attack, causing her face to pale. One word came to mind as she saw the huge loss of health: "Retreat!"
Kana tucked her tail between her legs and charred off into the jungle. But with the flower plants screeching, every plant monster in the area uprooted and began to chase after Kana. "s.h.i.+t! s.h.i.+t! s.h.i.+t! s.h.i.+t! Why does this always happen to me! Aoi quickly leave my body so I can switch back to my fire element!"
"Okay!" Aoi flew out of Kana"s body. Kana quickly opened her menu and pressed the b.u.t.ton next to where it says [Meteorite Dragon Level] 35/200. But instead of getting the expected results of her fire dragon form. She was met with a system notification.
*Ding!*
[Element change can not be done while in combat.]
"!!!"Kana wanted to die! She was cursing whichever G.o.d came up with this d.a.m.n system thing! As Kana was cursing, some random roots began flying up at her from under ground as she continued to run. What was once just a few roots turned into hundreds and then thousands. Kana was not having an easy time.
"Kana, run faster!" Aoi yelled out as she saw the ma.s.s of plant monsters chasing after them.
"I am already running at full speed. The only thing I can think of is to use my water breath. Aoi help me find the right timing." Kana was too busy concentrating on dodging the roots that were coming out of the ground to be able to turn around and attack. She was lucky she had Aoi with her so she could have a set of eyes to watch her backside.
Aoi took Kana"s request seriously as she watched the roots exiting the ground behind them. After a few rounds, Aoi"s eyes lit up as she shouted out: "Do it now!"
"On it!" Kana jumped up into the air, flipped her body around, and opened up her mouth wide: " [Water Breath]!"
A scene of ma.s.s destruction played out in front of Kana was her [Water Breath] Easily sliced through everything in front of them. With so many experience points filling her bar, Kana"s [Water Dragon Level] skyrocketed and even surpa.s.sed the normal max level.
[Water Dragon Level]: 12->25/20
Kana landed on her feet. She had no time to care about reaching her first goal as the ground under her feet began shaking violently.
*Roar!*
The area in front of Kana suddenly burst open, creating a huge hole in the ground, and from that hole, a ma.s.sive plant monster giant body emerged. Kana tucked her tail between her legs as she slowly began backing up. She had never seen such a huge monster in her entire life. She had no idea what evolution stage the monster in front of her was, but she knew this monster was very dangerous! Such a huge creature should not be able to exist. The pressure the plant monster gave off was almost on the same level as the eye in the sky that day during the war.
"Aoi I think you may need to find a new master soon!" Kana was not joking when she said this, she had a feeling she was not going to be able to survive this situation very easily.
"Kana run! Don"t look back or fight just run!" Aoi"s voice was shaking but she suddenly appeared in front of Kana. "I will try to hold it off..."
"No, if I am to run you will come with me. Aoi, you are strong but these plant monsters are the enemy of water based creatures. Not to mention you are an elemental. If this thing eats you it will most likely grow much stronger." Kana opened her menu and without even saying another word or allowing Aoi a chance to retort she de-summon her. She knew Aoi was going to sacrifice herself to fight this monster but Kana could not allow that. Whether Aoi got mad at her or not, Kana would never let anyone sacrifice themselves for her. Kana gazed at the huge plant monster and made a firm decision. "Time to run!"
