BXBX NOVEL Chapter 146 Through The Gap
Leyan created a big arrow again in his bow. He fired it just as he got a good aim at the other eyes of the Lesser Cerberus.
*SWISH!*
The arrow flew with incredible speed through the air.
*CRAATT!*
It stuck in one remaining eye on the same head. Now one of the three heads of the Lesser Cerberus has no eyes anymore.
"Yes!" Leyan cheered happily. "If we can overcome the strength of its body, it's not a problem."
All of his party members felt the same relief. They were almost certain that they would be able to kill the Lesser Cerberus with a little more effort.
Almost, because that didn't come true after suddenly the Lesser Cerberus rammed its sturdy body into the cave entrance. Seemingly wanted to forcefully break in.
*BRUKKK!*
*BRUKKK!*
*BRUKKK!*
...
The Lesser Cerberus slammed its body so many times with great force that it shook the walls of the cave. It didn't even care that its entire shoulder was also suffering from the impact it continued to exert forcefully.
The rocks around them started falling from the shaking they created.
"Damnit! We have to do something fast to kill it!" one of the females who was a magician said frantically.
Her party friends immediately agreed with the suggestion.
They wouldn't want to wait any longer to see whether the Lesser Cerberus would be injured badly enough to decide to stop, or the cave's entrance would collapse from its attack.
The female magician gathered Mana in her wand which looked like it was made of ice crystals and aimed at the cave entrance. She drains a lot of her Mana to give one powerful attack.
Under her feet, ice began to form and froze the floor of the cave she was standing on. The cold air enveloped her and spread around, making her friends shudder a little.
The woman's hair was lifted by the flow of her Mana that overflowed all around. Her eyes were bluish and gave off a cold glare.
"Freeze that fucker, Kiara!" Leyan shouted.
*WUUUSSHHH!!!*
A burst of white ice magic shot from the tip of her wand towards the entrance of the cave. The instant the ice magic attack hit the head that was visible through the cave entrance, the ice immediately spread to the Lesser Cerberus' neck.
However, the results she expected did not match the reality that happened. The woman named Kiara, had been pouring out a lot of her Mana in hopes of freezing the entire body of the Lesser Cerberus.
But it turns out that the Lesser Cerberus has indeed proven to be a strong monster. The ice that should be able to freeze an ordinary monster stopped at the base of its neck and was only able to freeze two of the Lesser Cerberus' three heads.
They could still hear the loud banging of the cave when the Lesser Cerberus collided with its massive body.
"You can't freeze it?" Leyan asked with a look of disbelief.
"I guess not," Kiara replied. Her voice was starting to sound loose, as a sign that she was tired.
Leyan didn't say anything and could only grit his teeth. At this time, they are not supposed to be losing Haru - another member of their party who was left behind in the middle of the maze-filled path back there.
He then caught Samuel's gaze saying that they should start attacking.
Leyan nodded. After being in the same party for a long time they could communicate with just a glance.
Leyan drew his bow and created another arrow while Samue moved forward and channeled Mana into his spear.
Samuel thrust his spear with all his might through the narrow gap that became the entrance of the cave and directly hit one of the Lesser Cerberus' heads. With that stab, Samuel was able to smash the frozen head.
The Lesser Cerberus let out a wailing full of pain from its unfrozen head.
The monster was moving wildly outside so Leyan could see one more of its frozen heads through the narrow cave entrance.
After that, Samuel stepped aside and allowed Leyan to carry out the next attack. The Elf aimed and fired his arrow.
*SWIISSHH!*
Leyan's shot hit just as one of the frozen heads passed between the cracks of the entrance. The huge arrow hit the frozen head and smashed it instantly.
"Only one left!" the healer said in a hopeful tone.
"We can kill it now," Samuel said while looking at his other party members. As if asking their opinion about an idea that is in their head.
"Yes," Leyan said.
Kiara nodded. As for the healer, Samuel knew that she also agreed with that idea.
So Samuel was rushed forward with a spear behind his body. He shot out through the narrow opening of the cave entrance and immediately swung his spear.
The fewer heads of the Lesser Cerberus left, the weaker it will be. And now it's only one head left which means, it has weakened significantly.
*CRAAATTT!*
Samuel's spear slashed the Lesser Cerberus' neck. Then an arrow shot from inside the cave entrance and stuck in its neck.
Leyan drew closer to the cave entrance and shot his arrow quickly. Within one second he had managed to plant three arrows in the body of the Lesser Cerberus.
Dark-colored blood flowed out from every wound that was on its body. Samuel also continued to swing his spear and added to the wounds suffered by the Lesser Cerberus.
*CRAATT!*
*CRAATT!*
*CRAATT!*
...
Samuel's swing and stab, and Leyan's arrow shot quickly eroded the Lesser Cerberus' life. The monster suddenly fell on the dark sandy ground and its blood flowed onto the sand and was absorbed into it.
Samuel lunged, jumped, and thrust his spear into the Lesser Cerberus' eyes.
*CRAATT!*
Dark blood splashed onto Samuel's face and body. However, the monster still wasn't completely dead.
Its claws suddenly swung at Samuel from the side and rammed him until he hit the cave and left his spear into the eye socket of the Lesser Cerberus.
Leyan who saw that immediately came out of the cave and shot an arrow even faster. While the healer rushed out to Samuel.
