Master Of None Chapter 1754 1754. Poisoned Bait

"You're a big one!" The second follow up punch that Rey used caused a solid crack as the defense breaking fla punch hit. A large black mare appeared on the side and the crack was a bone breaking in the behemoth salamander's body.

The instant reaction from the behemoth salamander was to turn in pain and attack with its tail. But Rey had already moved out of the way. She was falling in to a dangerous battle flow that put her right up front with the danger. That was what she liked though.

"Keep trying to bite like that and you might get a mouthful of sothing bad!" the mocking tone was similar to what Su did to taunt. However, it didn't appear to be doing the sa thing. There was no mana in it making the taunts useless. Yet, Su and Walker kept themselves back, they could see that this was a goal Rey had.

The taunt was also not empty, Walker could see that Rey had clutched a small purple potion in her left hand while getting a little closer to the behemoth salamander's mouth. It was not an explosive potion but one of the potions that Rey had said made toxic gas. One that would make people numb and paralyzed.

The danger of using it was clear to him, however, when the salamander snapped at Rey out of anger for the attack just monts ago, the potion was tossed in to the air. Crunching glass was the only inclination of trouble for the behemoth salamander before it felt the glass pierce its tongue and cheeks.

That was only for a mont though. The pain that caused it to hiss drastically stopped its ability to even raise its neck. Rey watched the head fall lower before she dashed forward toward the now sluggish behemoth salamander.

The sheer size of the salamander stopped the potion from doing too much. Just numbing and stopping the muscles around where it had chomped the potions. But it was enough to cause there to be a lot of ti for her to attack.

The combination of punches was growing by the second. Jabs to the ribs, defense breaking punches to the back, and heavy kicks that started to break the tougher skin since the flas from punches had already dried it out. This flow of attacks was too fast for the behemoth salamander to keep up with. It opted for a large sweeping attack with its tail to make any progress.

Unfortunately, the attack only managed to graze Rey for a second. The result was a smallest of bruises that could 't even make her stumble. It did make her hit back even harder. "

Walker, give a boost!" without any other hesitation, Rey leaped up in to the air preparing a heavy hamr fist attack with flas wreathed around her fists.

Hearing and feeling Rey's intentions, Walker used wind to push Rey up more. The positioning was simple for him since he could manipulate the wind well. But he was surprised to see that the system had reacted to him using the wind to boost the attack that Rey was using. Not surprised enough to miss the attack though.

'The skill wind boost has been taken from the wind saint system. The skill has been automatically learned based on understanding of wind elental mana and current buff skills learned.

Wind boost- 3 mana cost

Using a small amount of wind elental mana, the user is able to boost the speed and jumps of the target, it is a one use skill that will work for that mont before needing to be used again. The buff can be extended if used with a larger amount of mana but it will weaken the effects.'

A very basic skill that let Rey co crashing down on the behemoth salamander's head with much more force. With enough force to cause a large cracking sound and a much larger burst of flas than before. The results were easy to understand.

As the behemoth salamander collapsed, it had been left as the largest defeated monster of their trip through this areas. It also appeared to have scared away everything around. Even a few grubs had left the safety of the rotting logs while the battle had gone on. They were taken down by the soldiers, but that was besides the point.

"You should cool Rey off, she looks like she is ready to burn up the entire forest." Su looked at Rey and felt the heat around her was very strong. Walker didn't hesitate to mix wind and water mana to send a cool breeze toward her. It was welco since Rey appeared to be finally feeling the effects of all the heat she used.

What was more stunning than all of the fighting was the fact that Rey didn't have a single burn on her. Just the bruise from the salamander's tail that had grazed her. Yet even that was small and nothing compared to other injuries she had gotten in the past. It was easily healed by Alice who was still singing her song to boost their attacks.

"I thought I would be fighting with you. I think you stole the show." Walker had imagined he would be battling too. When he had seen Rey getting in to the flow though, he had felt a reason to stop himself. As if he had the gut feeling that he wasn't needed at all in the mont.

"It was just an easy fight. You didn't need to help until the end." Rey stretched her fingers after taking off the fire affinity knuckles. Her partner had already retreated with the flas clearly tired from the fight.

"Well, I would say you won a lot of respect from the angels. They saw the first elental spirit that we have had join us in battle. They might actually be afraid of you now." Walker's chuckled a little but Rey just shrugged.

"They need to deal with it sohow. We are going to bring the elental spirits back in a big way. They need to accept them now." She shrugged again before pointing at the body of the behemoth salamander, "I got us more bait, and I even poisoned the bait so the wyverns that eat it will beco slow and useless."

The fact that Rey had thought ahead while battling was exactly why Rey should be feared. Her alchemical side had grown much more to the point that she could use it during a battle. The fight between her and the behemoth salamander was much easier than anyone else would have had when it ca to the soldiers fighting alone.

The strength that the party had was definitely not shown when soone looked at them. Adding in the ntal aspect of things, and it was again, radically different. Such a large monster that was aggressive to start out was defeated and even prepared to use as poisoned bait for the wyverns which were much stronger. The angels felt that if they were going to fight multiple wyverns, then now was the best chance they could have compared to any other ti they had attempted similar feats.

"We can store this and the other monsters before we move on. I think there will be far fewer monsters to worry about for the last section here." Walker had taken the map back out and estimated their position. He was showing Su and Rey where they were and what they should do for their path. He still planned to let Rey take the lead.

"I can still fight if I need to. But it won't do much since they are all too afraid now." The annoyed comnt made Su shake her head but she was wearing smile. Rey was Rey and that would never change.

"Now that was fun to watch. I think you did a pretty big number on the monsters around here. Even with Walker helping I doubt you needed it." hearing praise from Gil was a rare thing since Rey and Gil preferred to tease each other and fight a bit.

"You should have fired more arrows than watching then. You might have been able to learn sothing. Well, you probably learned a little seeing how I was able to crush them." Rey made a show of punching the air. It lightened the mood a bit more since so of them had been worried that she was stop tired or had so injuries.

"Seran, how are things looking? Do you think we'll have enough to attract many wyverns to one spot away from us?" Walker saw that Seran didn't even have words. His head could only nod up and down while he and a few of his soldiers were still glancing at Rey with awe. Neither the Rize nor the Fel empire had seen such battle styles.
