The colossal beast looked everywhere around it, but due to the escaping creatures and the numerous corpses, it had turned into squashed innards. It had quite a serious difficulty in noticing the standing still Fell, and it was only when it sensed a dangerously sharp blood-l.u.s.t that its splintered pupils turned toward the black-haired figure."Finally", thought Fell as he felt the chilling glare on his head. "You"re quite the dumb one, aren"t you?", he exclaimed loudly with a mocking grin on his face.
The t.i.tanic snake was quite the intelligent beast, and although it didn"t understand the word spoken from the hairless monkey in front of her. It fully understood its intention and knew that it was making fun of it.
How dared he! n.o.body had ever dared to treat him like this.
It thought while releasing a sharp hiss, that broke the eardrums of many animals near them. This feeling of being looked down wasn"t something the gigantic snake was used it, as it was usually him who would look at preys like that.
A long and thin sword-like tongue snapped a few times out of its mouth. Numerous information was gathered during the few flicks of its tongue, and it began coiling around itself. The t.i.tanic snakes coiled around a few times, and its lower part formed a spring that began whenever it contracted its muscles.
"Oh, you want more?", asked Fell in a soft mumble. In the middle of the noisy beast, his voice didn"t go far before being washed out by the numerous howl and roars. By now, the MechSuit"s charge had made contact with the beast wave and was making their utmost effort in stopping it.
One corpse after another fell on the ground. But the intensity and number of the beast forced the numerous MechSuit to step back, and before long, they were engulfed by the ma.s.s of b.e.s.t.i.a.l attacks. Thankfully, few were the numbers of casualties from the human side, as the defenses offered by the armored MechSuit couldn"t easily be pierced by the sharp claws and deaths from the beasts.
Except for a few cases where the MechSuits were engulfed under the weight of hundreds of animals, and their pilots were disappearing after their deadly pa.s.sages. Thankfully, most of the MechSuit was equipped with an engine powerful enough to take flight, and that special perk made it easier for the human side to kite the beast wave.
The t.i.tanic snake coiled on itself and began strangely contracting its lower part in a rhythmic pattern. The short distance of a few dozens of meters meant nothing for it, and for Fell too, who could easily cross that distance in two steps.
Their gaze locked on each other. And before long, the snake lost patience, and the ground it broke down and became fine particles. The huge slippery figure turned into an arrow that pierced the air. A tremendous shock wave appeared around its body as it broke through the speed of sound.
But even at this speed, Fell could see its movement with ease. His right leg drew a semi-circular circle in front of him and traveled backward before taking a solid footing on the ground. His lung expanded as his lips turned into a vacuum that inhaled every speck of air around him.
A grim expression replaced the vicious smile he had. The arm grasping Soldier"s Fortune rose to the height of his shoulder and was placed in a horizontal manner. As soon as he finished taking his posture, the beast entered his range of attack. Its oversized jaw snapped open, and rows of sharp teeth appeared in front of Fell.
"I"ve already cut you once. Begone!", he mumbled as he moved in an explosive fashion. Soldier"s Fortune disappeared, Fell"s figure disappeared. The t.i.tanic Serpent"s jaw snapped again, and close as it continued traveling through the air. After flying for another twenty meters, it hit the ground, and its fine line appeared in the middle of its body. The next moment, its body was turned into two similar pieces before it died. A large puddle of blood soon left from its dissected body and turned the brown soil into a vivid red color.
Fell had reappeared a few distances away, his body was still in the same posture, and a deep line had been traced on the ground behind him, leading toward the place where he had been standing.
Soldier"s Fortune black blade was filled with the t.i.tanic Serpent"s blood, his hand moved, and his forearm snapped at his side. A long line of red appeared on the soil, and Fell disappeared toward another powerful blood essence he had detected.
His figure dashed among the many vicious beasts. Whenever he pa.s.sed, the numerous beast would stop in their track, and turn into motionless statues before falling on the ground in many pieces.
"I guess our defenses are holding quite well.". He exclaimed between two speedy steps, with eyes darting everywhere. He swiftly managed to gather information about the state of the battle.
Due to the fact that MechSuit gave humanity better defenses and weapons. Even with a far smaller number, the human managed to hold their ground in front of the plentiful vicious monsters. The casualty from both sides couldn"t be compared as every seconds; dozens of monsters would be taken down just from Fell. The MechSuit"s didn"t disappoint Fell as he saw their heroic charge take down hundreds of beast in one fell swoop.
"If we hold like this…", he mumbled before stopping in track and turning around. Horror flashed on his face, and he couldn"t help but slightly tremble before raising his head. There in the sky, he looked at the origin of the filthy blood essence he had sensed earlier.
Shaped with the same musculature as a three-meter high gorilla, and donned with a pair of black wings that seemed to contain the obscurity of the night. In its hand was a crunched and bloodied helmet of a MechSuit.
