Jayden surged forward, his powerful legs propelling him through the dense undergrowth as he pursued the fleeing Earth Smasher. The massive beast moved with surprising agility for its size, its thick arms swinging from tree to tree as it desperately tried to lose its pursuer.
But Jayden wouldn't be shaken.
His enhanced senses tracked the creature's every movement, his energy detection skill locking onto the energy residue left in its wake.
The Smasher thought it could lose him in the labyrinth of towering oaks and tangled vines - its home territory where it held every advantage.
But it was wrong.
Jayden's feet slammed against a thick branch as he launched himself forward, covering twenty meters in a single bound. The wind whipped past his face as he closed the distance, now just ten meters behind the panicking beast.
