*Clink!*
Clovis heard a clicking sound while he felt the hardness of the skin of this beast. This beast was supposed to be at a higher tier in his opinion.
The beast had strength and weight. Its size was colossal and the skin was tough. Other than speed, the beast didn't lack anything.
Clovis glanced to the side. Jay was making his way toward him while Kanaria led the group to a tall tree in the area. She climbed the tree while lody and Ragna were stationed below it to protect her.
When Clovis was about to say sothing, he noticed that the sun was actually covered by sothing. He raised his head out of reflex and saw the giant beast turning around.
Without hesitation, Clovis moved back to regain so distance, but to his surprise, the beast actually lowered its head and circled around him. With such a size, Clovis would be swallowed alive.
He spun his body and struck the beast's head. The latter didn't feel hurt at all. However, Clovis's aim was not to hurt the beast but to propel himself up, avoiding the beast's mouth.
Clovis landed on top of the Tier 3 beast's head and tried to strike its eyes, but the beast swiftly closed its eyes and started swaying its head left and right to shake him off.
Clovis wrapped the neck with the chain of his short sword as he stuck to this beast.
Annoyed, the beast lifted up its head as though it were about to slam its own head to the ground as long as Clovis could get crushed along with it. It wasn't like its hard head would be injured or sothing.
However, the beast focused on Clovis a little bit too much as it didn't see Jay approaching.
Clovis pointed to the right, so Jay imdiately looped around the beast from the right. Instead of the body, Jay jumped higher than Clovis and struck its neck instead.
*Oooohhh!*
The beast growled as Jay actually managed to pierce through its skin. Even so, it was only the surface. Other than the skin, the flesh was also tough. Even Jay's sword could only penetrate one centiter deep. It was nothing compared to the beast's size.
"Jay! Rember the snake? You are Ivan now!" Clovis shouted, realizing sothing.
"!!!" Jay raised his eyebrows, recalling that particular scene. The snake he was talking about was the Tier 2 Yurlunggur.
In the past, they were unable to pierce through the snake's skin. Hence, they ran away.
However, the mont they saw Ivan cutting the snake, they hurriedly switched their strategy and poisoned the snake.
Clovis wanted to recreate that strategy. Since his swing was so powerful that it could injure the beast, it would be his role to deal as much wound as possible. In the anti, Clovis would be distracting this beast while trying to widen those wounds.
Unfortunately, they didn't have any more poison. Hence, the only thing they could do was do this the hard way.
Now that both of them saw the path to success, Jay sped up and looped around the beast while delivering so strikes on that big body.
Clovis kept clinging to the beast's neck while trying to shoot the beasts that were about to surround them.
"This is not looking good. They'll be too slow." Kanaria bit her lips while shooting the beasts down.
"What are you talking about?" lody asked with a serious expression.
"They're planning to have Jay create so open wounds while Clovis will expand them later. However, there is a big problem with that strategy. It's too slow. More and more beasts are coming."
"!!!" lody seed to co to a realization. She took another look at the radar and said, "Things might look bad soon."
There was a horde of beasts coming from the west. Their number was close to fifty. As lody said, more and more beasts were coming. If this continued, they would be surrounded first before they managed to kill the Tier 3 beast.
"Ragna. Protect Kanaria well. I'm going." lody turned her head to the left as if seeing sothing much more terrible. Before going, she grabbed the backpack that Clovis dropped earlier, taking out a few small devices.
"What? Are you going to be fine?" Ragna looked surprised.
"Don't underestimate lody. While she is our operator, she is still a Tier 2 mobile operator. In terms of close combat, she is actually better than ." Kanaria smiled while shooting yet another beast.
lody didn't bother to answer him. She just went to the west while taking out her grenade.
She only traveled for a bit before finding the incoming beast wave. Before engaging them, lody tossed one of the devices to the ground. This was a radar that had been connected to her. Not only in this place, but she also wanted to drop this device in a few other spots, widening their search area. This way, they could react before the beasts could co.
This was lody's answer when Kanaria told her that the subjugation took too long.
Now that the radars were in place, Kanaria headed out to et these beasts.
*Roar!* One of them noticed her and alerted the others, causing all of them to turn around.
lody wasn't afraid of them and charged ahead as if she were planning to deal with them in close combat.
But when there were only ten ters left, lody extended her hand and grabbed the trunk on her left to forcefully stop her montum. In addition, she tossed the grenade with her right hand.
The beasts, full of montum, were unable to stop or change direction.
*Boom!*
The grenade blasted several beasts away while lody took cover from the tree. After their charge was disrupted, lody started shooting them, fully grasping their attention.
The enraged beasts had no thought other than shredding lody apart. They didn't respond to the Tier 3 beast's call anymore.
Seeing her plan succeed, lody turned around and ran away. She was ready to throw a grenade or shoot them, but for the ti being, she just wanted to go around to drop so radars while bringing these beasts away.
'I've got you several minutes…' lody thought while glancing at Clovis and Jay.
Unbeknownst to her, this action actually led to a more shocking discovery.
