Their sharp dark eyes are locked on to him while emanating a dark mist, slowly hiding their bodies again. Like lions blocking their prays exit path, they all blended in their dark mist as it continued to expand towards the surroundings and Dash.He could also not help but notice the three remarkably restless Thagdas with overflowing droll on their b.l.o.o.d.y mouths. A hint of greed flashed in their eyes, seemingly imagining him as a cooked chicken and sent s.h.i.+vers down from his gigantic sh.e.l.l. It was these three that ate his soldiers like they were crispy snacks.
WOOOOOM~
Their body started to release another round of dark mist and it quickly expanded to the surroundings reaching almost a kilometer in just a few seconds... And just like before, more rocks and plants are being destroyed by the poisonous mist.
Seeing the poison mist doing its damage to the beautiful world of the water realm, Dash had the urges to spit the remaining blue fire right away but that would most likely cost him his life and his last remaining trump card.
Right now, he must think wisely. He could not count for the help of his people or they would just die in vain and become food sacrifices to these dangerous intruders.
Only Elric, who is gifted with the Authority of fire, could give the best beating on these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. The Blue Fire essence planted to him by the Great Seer Mhata is something that allows him to use the said element but with limited capacity.
Once he completely used his stack of fire essence, it would take him around a day or two to completely restore the Fire essence since it was not a native essence naturally produced by his body as a water elemental.
But right now, he must think quickly to delay the enemies as long as he can and hope that the little Diana could pitch Elric as fast as possible and help his melting sh.e.l.l.
While Dash was contemplating his next move, the five Thagdas have completely hidden with the help of the dark poison mist covering the giant turtle"s view in every direction.
"CALL MY HEED! SAND Sh.e.l.l!"
WOOOM!~
Dash"s turtle sh.e.l.l vibrated from his power. The sand under him floated and quickly compressed to an incredibly solidity and form another defensive layer in Dash"s body and sh.e.l.ls. It didn"t take long for the sand to completely hide his body under the sand defense.
With the help of this sand sh.e.l.l, his defense ability almost tripled! However, together with this improved defense is the burden in his mobility
Dash"s already gigantic body expanded further almost doubling his original size but his speed has also greatly diminished, completely stopping him from moving further.
Now he is nothing but a sitting turtle-duck hiding under the sand!

Dash prepared himself. Knowing that he would not be able to use the Blue Fire at the moment unless he gets a sure-kill shot, he decided to bet his last hope on his defense.
WOOOSH~
WOOSH~
WOOSH~
WOOSH~
WOOSH~
Five poison darts had successfully struck Dash"s sand body due to its immobile state.
"Finally!"
"It"s a dead turtle!"
"Head is mine!"
Seeing that their attack had finally hit the target, the three gluttons exclaimed in excitement. But the two other brothers knew that it was not as easy as they think. Their eyes remained glued at the unmoving turtle in the middle of their dark mist.
SHHH~
The poison darts and the poisoned sand sh.e.l.ls slowly fell from the turtle"s thick body and another layer of sand from the surroundings floated, recompressed, and repaired the damaged part as if undressing himself with the new sand sh.e.l.l. Like a statue, Dash just stood in the middle, not even the dark mist managed to penetrate his sand defense.
"I see."
The leading Thagda had a creepy smile on its Dragonic face after observing Dash for a while. With an excited tone, he messaged the others with his findings.
"It seems he had run out of his blue fire essence. It was probably because he had spent too much of trying to buy time for his people to escape. Now he has nothing to defend himself! Hahahaha. No wonder he chooses to hide in his pathetic sh.e.l.l!"
"Really? Do you mean that b.a.s.t.a.r.d can"t spew fire anymore?"
"So we can just attack him down with whatever?"
"I want the head. And the tail and the flaps."
The three gluttons immediately reacted while the fourth one remained silent.
"Let"s do it closer this time boys." The leader declared. His claws glinted a powerful pressure and poison.
"Let"s dig this turtle up and see how tough his sh.e.l.ls are!"
