“Why!! Tell me the reason for it!”, the Elder shouted desperately.
But Rex already go into his battle position, he didn’t even intend in answering the Elder anymore.
From the look of the Elves in front of him and their power, Rex already knows that they are the High Elves of this place.
The root-like horns on top of their heads, and their dark yellow eyes say it all.
“Elder Sylvar, We need to fight him together!”, one of the Elder said to Elder Sylvar who is the strongest one.
Hearing this, Elder Sylvar nodded his head.
The exchange they have before where Rex destroyed the wall made by all of them greatly concerns him, Rex did it so easily.
So based on that, Elder Sylvar assumes that Rex has something even greater.
While they are discussing with themselves, Rex’s breathing suddenly becomes hot as a red symbol appeared on his forehead.
The symbol is shaped like a half-crescent moon,
And as soon as the symbol appears, Rex’s injury stops healing.
“Berserker Curse…”, Rex mumbles.
This is one of the skills he got from the Werewolves fighting in Zrolis City, this is Brutal Grey’s skill that makes him even daring despite his gruesome injuries.
BOOM!
Rex dashes in again like a lightning bolt,
His aura becomes violent as he prepares himself to exchange blows with Elder Sylvar, and he didn’t plan on stepping back.
SWOOSH!!
Elder Sylvar also burst with green energy as he flapped his wings forward to meet Rex head-on.
Looking at this, the two Elders join in the fight while one of the Elder is left behind to take care of Elder Gorduin.
BOOM!!
A powerful shockwave was created as Rex and Elder Sylvar collided,
Both of their fists collided creating a powerful shockwave that uproot the trees and even the ground around them, it was devastating for the surrounding.
The Elders that were about to join were forced to stop, the shockwave is too strong, they can’t move any closer to the two.
After the powerful collision, Rex and Elder Sylvar started to exchanges blows.
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
Each of Rex’s attacks is imbued with Force Beam knowing that his opponent is not weak, while Elder Sylvar was shocked by Rex’s power.
Even in his half-Spirit form, he still got overwhelmed by Rex’s power.
When both of their fists collided, Elder Sylvar’s fist got pushed back as he felt a slight pain on his muscle, and every time Rex’s fist landed on him, blood crawl onto his throat trying to gush out.
“Rghh!”, Elder Sylvar gritted his teeth as he forced the blood down.
From the look of it, Rex is in the upper hand.
But Rex is still hurt by Elder Sylvar’s punch also, there is cone-shaped green energy on the tip of Elder Sylvar’s fists that punctured a hole each time Rex got punched.
And the weird thing is, the hole didn’t regenerate as if Rex is only a human.
‘What’s wrong with him?! Why is he becoming stronger by the second!’, Elder Sylvar thought in shock.
Instead of becoming weaker, Rex becomes stronger instead.
It makes no sense with all of the injuries on Rex’s body right now, there are three gaping holes on Rex’s chest but he still keeps punching vigorously.
BAM!!
“ARGHH!”, Elder Sylvar was punched to the side.
But just after he crashed, he flapped his wings upwards as he shouted, “Great Wood Magic, Nature’s Arrow!!”
He forced out his remaining mana to this attack, blood can be seen on the corner of his mouth.
The wood mana gathered on Elder Sylvar’s hand as it take a shape of an arrow, it contains immense mana that even the surrounding wood mana got sucked into it.
“Let’s fight together!”, Elder Sylvar shouted to the two Elders.
He then fires the Nature’s Arrow that creates a cyclone as it descends towards Rex,
Hearing this, the Elders nodded their heads as they touch the ground before four thick vines caught Rex’s limbs, and also a green symbol appeared in front of Rex.
Rex was caught by the vines chaining him in place,
He looks to his front and saw the Nature’s Arrow is closing onto him, and getting hit by it will certainly injure him badly.
In the nick of the moment, Rex’s eyes flash with black lightning.
“Blitzing Cry!!”, Rex roared as his body exploded with lightning, the vines that held him in place got destroyed by the black lightning setting him free.
He then positioned himself as he shouted, “FORCE BEAM!!”
BOOM!!
Rex and the Nature’s Arrow collided creating a powerful green shockwave that is even more powerful than the collision before.
The Green Symbol in front of Rex shatters as it supplies mana to the Nature’s Arrow making it even stronger than before.
Rex can feel the changes instantly,
SWOOSH!!
This time Instead of getting pushed back, the Elders got blown away.
Even Elder Sylvar was blown away hitting the Great Tree, the impact from the Nature’s Arrow and Rex’s Force Beam was too strong.
Rex put everything into this punch, but he feels that he’s getting pushed back.
“RAARRGHH!!”, Rex roared desperately as he drives his fist forward, he did it with all his might before suddenly,
KABOOOMM!!!
Nature’s Arrow exploded sending violent energy slashing the surrounding.
Rex get blown away by the collision as his body got slashed by the violent energy, he crashed hundreds of meters away before stopping.
It was so powerful that even the mutated animals in 10 miles radius ran away.
This night is chaos in the Eastern Altstone Forest, not a single mutated animal can calm down as the fight still going on.
SWOOSH!!
The Elders that are already blown away got even more trashed because of the explosion, some even broke their bones because of the impact.
After the explosion resided, the Elders recovered.
Elder Gorduin died because of the impact, his body can’t hold onto the corrosive black energy as he died in one of the Elder’s arms.
The other Elders are also not in a good shape,
Two of them broke their arms while the furthest Elder got scratches here and there, Elder Sylvar is also injured and his breathing is already heavy.
It can be seen that his mana is exhausted, the attack he used before was his most powerful spell.
“Elder Sylvar! Are you okay?!”, one of the Elder shouted.
Hearing this, Elder Sylvar didn’t answer as he look in the direction where Rex got blown off to hoping that Rex will stay down or even die.
After waiting for 30 seconds, Elder Sylvar then said, “How’re the others?”
“They will be fine, there’re no life-threatening injuries”, one of the Elder replied, this makes Elder Sylvar nodded his head.
The Elders’ injuries are starting to heal, Wood Element is known for its healing magic.
Elder Sylvar turns normal, he can’t sustain his half-Spirit form anymore.
But just after he turns normal,
Thud…Thud…Thud…
The sound of light footsteps can be heard,
Each of these footsteps sound brings imminent terror to the Elders, they’re stepping back unconsciously knowing that Rex didn’t die.
Rex came to their vision with a dangling right arm,
But even with his dangling right arm, his eyes are still burning with fighting spirit.
<The user has sustained a substantial injury! The user’s stats will be increased by 20%!
The system pops a notification that makes Rex even eager to fight, the Berserker Curse skill makes him stronger the more injury he sustained.
The Violet Moon will also make him stronger the angrier he gets, this fight is definitely his.
“IMPOSSIBLE! HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN!”, Elder Sylvar shouted in shock.
Although Werewolves are powerful, no ordinary Werewolf has the same power as him, Only an Alpha has the power to rival his.
Elder Sylvar then added, “WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS! We will compensate whatever our kind did, so just stop this meaningless fight!!”
Hearing this, Rex laughs loudly.
His low-baritone rough laughs reverberated to the surrounding, “You are currently compensating for what your kind did”
Elder Sylvar frowns, he doesn’t understand what Rex is talking about.
“You kill my friend, so I will kill all of you in exchange”, Rex added with a sinister smile.
‘One of ours killed a Werewolf?! Who dares to do that?!’, Elder Sylvar thought, no Elves that dare to kill a Werewolf cross his mind.
Even the Elders will not do such reckless things,
“I will find the person that killed your friend and properly execute him to your likings! So please stop this”, Elder Sylvar pleaded.
He will not go further, he has fight enough.
But Rex ignores this, he grabs his dangling right arm before he relocates it back in place.
Crack!
After feeling his right arm can be moved again, Rex gets into his battle stance without even considering Elder Sylvar’s pleading look.
Seeing this, “then so be it, Elders guard me!!”
“Elder Sylvar, Are you going to use that ritual?!”, one of the Elder asks.
Then another added, “We have been developing this Great Tree for three years! It will raze years of our effort to the ground if you do this”
“SHUT UP! JUST PROTECT ME!”, Elder Sylvar shouted.
Seeing Elder Sylvar’s resolute look, the Elders finally gets into their position.
Elder Sylvar then kneels in front of the Great Tree before he mumbles, “Pardon this useless one oh God of Nature, Strike me if you must but I’m doing this for my own kind”
After saying that, Elder Sylvar pierce through the Great Tree’s root with his hand.
Instantly after Elder Sylvar did this, the Great Tree glows before its life force got sucked into Elder Sylvar making him even stronger.
Seeing this, “Alpha Bearing!”
ZONG!!
The Elders suddenly felt their body went stiff, only Elder Sylvar is not affected by this.
“Protect the Great Tree and Elder Sylvar at all cost!”, The Elders shouted with a determined look, they will hold Rex from getting closer with their lives.
Seeing this, Rex smirk.
SWOOSH!
The ground cracked as Rex dashes to the Elders,
“Wood Magic! Chains of Nature!”
BOOM!
Big Vines sprout from the ground as it headed towards Rex, it was moving fast and it wanted to catch Rex.
Rex jumps around trying to avoid the Vines, but then,
Green birds made of mana suddenly appeared on his right, he can’t dodge the green birds so he gritted his teeth and punch them.
CRASH!
But instead of getting destroyed, the green birds’ sprouts vines that started to entangles Rex.
This creates a gap making the Vines that are chasing after Rex catch up.
Rex got entangled once again as he glance at Elder Sylvar, he can see that the Great Tree started to wither.
“BLITZING CRY!”,
BLITZ!!
The vines got destroyed as Rex becomes even faster, he flashes steps to the Elder’s back before he slashes one of them with Claw of Tormentor and bites the other one.
SLASH!!
BITE!!
Rex’s claw slashes the Elder’s head cleanly while he bites the other Elder’s arm off.
<Killed an Early Rank Six Supernatural, Obtained 3,000,000 Exp>
<Killed High Elves 2/5>
“ARGHH!! MY ARM!!”, the Elder shouted as Rex munched his arm, time is ticking and Rex will not be able to fight Elder Sylvar after the ritual.
Without wasting another second, Rex dashes to the last one.
The last Elders looks at Rex in horror, his body won’t listen as a bleak aura came out of his body.
Fear gripped the last Elder in place making him an easy target, Rex clench his fist as it started to emit a yellow hue.
“Force Beam!”
BAM!
Rex’s fist instantly blown the last Elder’s head right off killing him instantly.
<Killed High Elves 3/5>
The Elders protecting Elder Sylvar died and one of them are immobilize, this left Elder Sylvar completely vulnerable to attacks.
After clearing the others off, Rex stopped on Elder Sylvar’s back.
“Are you ready to die?”, Rex said softly, this completely surprised Elder Sylvar.
Elder Sylvar looks to his back and saw the other Elders are either died or immobilized, the Elders didn’t even reach a minute, Elder Sylvar is the remaining one left.
He then looks back to the Great Tree and said, “I can fend you off with one arm! In just another minute, the Great Tree’s power will be mine!!”
Hearing this, Rex smiles mockingly.
“You can fend me off, but what about this Great Tree”, he said with a smirk.
Realizing this, Elder Sylvar’s eyes turn red, “NO! YOU CAN’T DO THAT! I WILL NOT PERMIT IT!”
RUMBLE!
The weather suddenly turns cloudy as Rex’s eyes started blitzing with black lightning, the wind turns cold as this phenomenon started.
It makes Elder Sylvar’s widened his eyes, “No… Please you can’t do this!”
“I told you, All of you will die”, Rex whispers softly.
Elder Sylvar started to sweat,
He can’t use any magic while absorbing the Great Tree, so he can’t do anything.
The words that came out of Rex’s mouth makes Elder Sylvar’s skin crawl, “Please…Don’t do this, I’m sorry”, he started to cry under the immense pressure.
But Rex knows no such thing as mercy,
“This will be your grave. Black Lightning Magic, Sky Rupture!!”
“NO!!!”, Elder Sylvar shouted desperately as he saw a black thick lightning descend from the sky.
CRACKK!!
KABOOM!!!
