Right now they where in a large vast waste land and the end couldn't be sighted they could also see some ancient ruins to which gods knows how many years they have been there after walking tirelessly for 2 days and nights they still haven't sighted a single sign of life .
To make it worst everywhere was foggy which made them hard to see the surroundings after going deeper and entering a mountain range . the air was getting denser and eerie. most of them where ascended and only few where awakened which made it easier for them to navigate the surroundings.
After they went deeper for a long period of time Ethan thought * something is not right* Even though it a Tier 5 dungeon we should have encountered a beast by now* the thought spined in his head.
All of a sudden they fell a sudden pressure that made them difficult to breathe. * everyone be at alert * sunny shouted as he drew his axe . he had sensed an evil presence. all the awakened already knew as Sonny don't have to tell them.
Ethan also had a black sacred amour called black panther hide which he bought for 50 million ace token( digital currency in the whole alliance) it boosts his speed and has a active skill called shadow panther which makes him hide his presence he also owned a blade but it was only a mutant one but still it was fast and sharp because of the skill he cultivated .
* hiss* everyone breathe heavily as the pressure only got worst the team quickly formed a formation as they where about 30 with only 10 as mages and healers where in the middle.
* BANG ARGHHH* a shriek came from. behind has a purple fist burst forward and punched an ascended with a mutant beast amour . He immediately burst like a tofu even though he used his ability to resist.
immediately the mages launched a series of beams at the beast but they all met air as the beast was fast like breeze. it was not as if they where slow but because the beast was too fast . *BOOOM* another explosion shook the place as the area and ground shattered almost scattering their formation what they did not know was that another ascended has already met his maker. but it was not their fault has the beast was too powerful.
* everyone watch out it a humanoid heavenly beast * Sony shouted * he already knew the enemy as expected from and apex level being * Ethan thought. infact Ethan had already sighted the beast already and was aware it was humanoid it was all thanks to his sacred amour he could sense danger . * protect the mages and healers they are it target * Ethan shouted . with a burst of speed he coated his sword with water blade and swiped at a certain area in the fog * CLANG * it was like hitting metal.
* what a tough skin I thought humanoid beast had only intelligence and attack power and not so much on defense* Ethan cried in shock he just used his sword skill called traceless sword technique which was a rank s skill which was given to him by the vanguards because of his hard work. even if he couldn't hurt it at least it could still leave a mark. The beast was surprised because this group could not catch up to his speed not to talk of this week ascended human .
* hmph* Sony snorted has he used his berserker skill His aura scattered the fog as they saw a humanoid beast with purple skin and tall body frame it lacked muscle but still nobody dared underestimate it. *Bang bang bang* the two immediately burst into fights but within few exchanges Sonny screamed as he was sent flying and one of his arm was missing .but immediately he fell a huge fireball landed on the beast confusing it for a second.
Ethan threw Sonny to the healers as if he was like a pillow immediately 15 ascended and Ethan rushed to the beast and delivered devastating blows to it . but it dodged it and rushed to the healers* not a chance* Ethan Rushed has he used a condensed water serpent big like an anaconda but only bigger around the beast . before the beast could shatter it Ethan had already slammed his body to the beast .
Bang a loud sound occurred although the beast shifted and it fist missed an healers head . Ethan still felt like he hit a steel mountain. * crap* Ethan body felt numb.
*ROAAR* it got angry this human was annoying. it shifted it attention to Ethan as he saw the tiny human doing some weird movements technique. it was his sacred panther amour that boost is speed .
currently his speed was like an apex being about 220 points higher than sony himself bang bang boom flurry of attacks where like tracing fireworks. but still Ethan dodged it all . ROAAR this made the beast more angry as it couldn't land a single strike at the human.
* Sony now* Ethan shouted as he dodged a crushing blow bang spurt an axe fell on the beast neck which left a bloody gash blood oozed out . of course Sony arm had reappeared long ago he was just waiting for an opportunity to hit the beast weak spot and kill it . but they still underestimated it .
bAang the beast shoved Ethan and Sonny away. he retreated a few meters away but it still couldn't shove away this 2 flies . before you know it the other ascended and warriors joined in almost at the same time. the beast got worried it best technique was sneak attack but because of sunny and Ethan he wasn't able to run into the fog as they kept hot pursuit. after 30 minutes the beast was covered in bloody marks it was reaching it last rope who would have thought this squad where almost perfect. especially Ethan who constantly used the skills of the panther armor he even used his water skills to restrain the beast.
puff suddenly the beast turned to purple smoke . * oh no everybody join together* Ethan felt a sense crisis coming.
