Damn Academy chapter 112

112 – The Circulatory System (14)

An army of black lizards descended from the cliff. It was terrifying enough just to swarm from the sides, but to make matters worse, there was even a roar that terrified them.

After hearing it up close, the feeling of intimidation was so great that I wanted to give up everything. It was so powerful that it made my eardrums tingle.

Bertang fell into a panic as it was.

I didn’t want to look frightened in front of the girls, but I couldn’t help my legs shaking like an aspen tree.

“Ooh… It looks like we’re all going to die.”

I regretted stepping into the dangerous zone to enjoy some kind of luxury.

Cecile, whose nerves were on edge, spat out vicious words.

“If you are going to die, die alone.”

In an instant, the black lizards surrounded them in a circle and gradually began to narrow the encirclement.

Only Luna and the masked man remained calm in the situation.

He drew his wooden sword and walked out alone. He seemed to be meant to disperse his opponents.

Bertang couldn’t contain his astonishment when he saw his attitude of not being intimidated in the slightest in a desperate situation.

Luna began to memorize the language of her spirits. Perhaps because she raised the power of the spirits, her eyes glowed with blue magic power.

While everyone stood back to back and were wary of the encirclement, a soft wind like a breath wrapped around them. It was caused by the spirit.

Shortly, five wolf spirits appeared in front of them.

That wasn’t all Luna summoned. Soon after, the mist and the stream condensed in one place like a whirlpool, and it turned into the shape of her horse.

A dozen blue horses settled in the rear, snorting like steam.

Marta also summoned the lower level grass spirit and prepared a potion to subdue Bertangdo. If so, it was to grow vine spores that blocked the opponent’s movement. Originally, I was practicing with the goal of being immortal, so there was no fatal injury, and that part came to me painfully.

Thanks to Luna’s spirits standing around her group members as if covering them, the lizards approached Candyi, a relatively easy opponent, first.

In isolation, he faced enemies flocking from all sides.

A random hunt has begun.

Candy drove the lizards and backstepped them, getting further away from his group members. They tried to attack with sharp teeth and claws, but all missed.

I avoided not only those coming from the front, but also those coming from the left and right, and even those coming from behind.

He swung his sword, but he couldn’t slash it at once because the skin was so hard. Then he immediately changed his strategy and attacked his weak points, the eyes and abdomen.

When a lizard jumped in, it cut off the white belly skin, stepped on the head of another lizard, and pierced the eyeball with a knife while moving.

The surprising thing is that even in a precarious situation, the movements were relaxed and light. It didn’t even feel like putting all my energy into it.

It was an unusual move even for an outsider in swordsmanship like Bertan.

The lizards rushed in pursuit of him, as if the medicine had risen. It climbed over the body of other lizards, jumped, flew in, and attacked without hesitation. After spinning around a few times, it reached the point where the lizards piled up in layers.

As if he had waited, he threw the frostwind bomb.

Puong!

That’s how dozens of them turned into well-cut ice sculptures. Thatcher was so calm that Bertan, who watched it, was speechless for a moment.

Luna’s performance was no less than that.

The camp of lizards was a mess as the blue horses circled around and swept the lizards like a cavalry. Anything that tried to pounce on the gap was bitten by the wolves. It was a pretty stable defense.

As the two displayed monstrous prowess, Bertan swallowed. Then he moved to Trisha’s side. No matter how strong the defense wall was, there was a possibility that one or two would leak out.

And as he expected, a lizard pounced on the wolves.

Trisha shouted.

“Here! One guy broke through!”

Seizing the opportunity, Bertan shouted.

“I will deal with you!”

Then he held the suppression potion in both hands and threw it at the lizard.

As soon as the contents were sprayed into the air with a scraping sound, a vine grew and entangled the lizard. It was used to subdue Plantera.

However, thanks to the lizard’s flat body, it got out of the restraints without too much difficulty.

“… !”

As he was about to take out another potion, something flew through the wind right in front of him.

It was a wooden sword that Candyi was holding in his hand.

It went through the head of the lizard that was about to pounce on Trisha.

“Oh, no….”

Bertang turned his gaze to where the sword had come from. Even while driving around dozens of lizards, Candyi was aware of Trisha’s situation. It was an unbelievable sense of battle as if there were eyes on the back of his head.

He shouted, dodging the lizard’s snout.

“Throw it back!”

“Yes!”

Tricia moved quickly, whimperingly drew out the stuck sword and tossed it at him.

Candy snatched the sword out of the air and dropped a bomb right in front of him. Then he penetrated the belly of the lizard flying behind him and used his body as a shield to block the blast of cold air.

Boom!

Once again dozens of them got entangled in one and turned into ice.

As Cecil had thought, he used the bomb more efficiently than anyone else.

Luna accelerated her attack as if she was about to completely dampen her opponent’s momentum.

Following her hand gesture, the wind blew, and soon a small dragon’s volcanic cone formed with the water of the stream.

It made a huge wind noise and turned the place where opponents were concentrated into a mess.

It was so powerful that it left your mouth wide open.

The tide of battle was reversed in an instant, and the group of lizards could not easily approach and fell into the rear.

There are about fifty left. Although it overwhelms the number of hundreds of people, it is still too early to be relieved.

Because the boss didn’t show up.

The remaining lizards lined up and suddenly stood up on their hind legs.

Then they puffed up their necks and started making noises in unison.

Kureuk! Gurgling! Gureuk!

The monstrous cries echoed through the valley.

Satangi left the remnants behind and looked towards the edge of the valley as if sensing something.

Soon after, a large vibration began to echo under his feet.

Deep in the valley, something so huge that I could feel the vibration of each step was walking. At a very high speed.

The real hurdle was now.

Something pitch-black crawled out of the shady valley and climbed the cliff.

The size of a house. A long neck and a large mouth that could swallow a wagon in one bite. Crimson eyes like burning fire. Scales that look like they are covered with obsidian. Every time he stepped on the cliff, the rock crumbled like a cookie.

It was also similar to the black dragon seen in picture books. If it had wings, it was a fearsome appearance that would have been believed even if it was a dragon.

It must have been the ‘wingless dragon’ reigning as the top predator in the danger zone.

Without a word, Candy motioned to his comrades to step back.

Then he stepped forward.

From Bertan’s point of view, this was a fight that could not be won.

I couldn’t see anything I could do with a wooden sword. In front of that monstrosity’s iron shell, it was nothing more than a toothpick.

The monster took one look at the battle scene and roared loudly again.

Bertang gritted his teeth and stepped backwards.

“Damn, damn, damn! How about running away now?”

No one answered.

I just slowly backed away with Candy’s gesture.

The remaining lizards all moved towards the leader.

The monster crushed the rock with his hand and threw it in the direction of Candyi.

Large rocks rolled in like an avalanche.

When he saw the boulders coming at him with terrifying momentum, he took five steps to the side and stopped.

Trisha saw it and exclaimed urgently.

“Candy, avoid!”

Surprisingly, dozens of rocks passed through, leaving exactly where he stood.

His demeanor was always calm and relaxed.

The monster started throwing rocks one after another. Even though he was stoned, he did not allow a single stone to his body.

Because the monsters stuck to the cliff and didn’t come down, they couldn’t deal meaningful damage to each other.

Bertan rubbed his eyes for a moment and looked at them alternately.

It felt strange to see him come down and throw stones without fighting even after leaving his large body.

It was a composition where the monster became the prey and cornered.

Candy shouted at Luna, dodging the rain-like rocks.

“Can you drop that?”

Luna stepped in front of her and she cried out loud.

“Yes!”

Then he immediately started casting spells.

Soon after, the rocks began to coalesce on the cliff where the monster was attached. After gathering like that, he took the form of a golem and threw himself at the monster.

The attack went well.

The golem and the monster fell down the cliff with their bodies entangled.

Luna gasped for breath as if her energy had been drained by her brief summons.

All that was left was up to him.

It crashed violently, but frighteningly, the monster suffered no injuries. On the contrary, he roared once, as if he had only stimulated his anger, and then jumped out with terrifying momentum.

Then I ran to Candyi and put his front paw down.

He easily dodged the ground-crushing blow by throwing himself away. Then, using his relatively small size, he clung to the monster’s torso and threw himself into a blind spot out of sight.

As if the plan had been planned in advance, Luna’s wolf spirit quickly joined in and distracted her.

The monster swung his arm at random.

He quickly started planting bombs into the cracks in the scales.

Because the shell was so hard, neither the golem’s attack, nor the wooden sword, nor the wolf’s teeth could pierce it.

If the bomb doesn’t work, then it’s really dangerous.

I wanted to be a good opponent, but the monster was not an easy opponent. He turned his body around and swept everything off the ground with his tail.

Quaaa

As the tail swept past, the bumpy ground became flat.

The spirit that was hit directly by it was summoned and turned into smoke, and nearby rocks were shattered.

It was the most powerful attack, including that of the allies, during the battle so far.

And Candyyi was also hit directly by the teeth and flew away, crashing into a waterfall.

“No!”

Trisha tried to run towards the waterfall over her reason, but Cecil caught her and stopped her.

A few seconds later, the bombs embedded in his body exploded one after another.

With a booming roar, his body swayed back and forth.

If this attack didn’t work, it would be the end.

Everyone watched the scene with bated breath.

Parts of the monster’s body were covered in pure white frost and hardened. It stayed silent and then brushed his body.

Sssss-

Soon after, the scales trembled with a sound as if they were adapting to the cold. And the black color slowly started to be dyed with a pale blue color.

After its whole body turned a pale blue color, it broke the ice and started to move.

Bertan said in despair.

“… Oh, it’s ruined.”

Soon after that, it targeted those who remained and began charging at tank-like speed.

Luna drew her strength again and cast her summon.

In the path of the monster, stones and boulders piled up one by one, and once again took the shape of a giant golem.

The house-sized golem and the monster collided with each other and fought.

It was a battle of whales that humans could not intervene. However, the golem did not last long.

The monster smashed the golem’s arm at random with his thick hands and tore off his head with his mouth.

“Ah… ah….”

As the last hope was torn apart, Bertan fell into a panic.

It cleared the obstacle and rushed at Luna at the speed of a tank.

It was then. An intense light rushed in from the side of the waterfall and attacked the monster.

Quang!

With a deafening impact, it rolled sideways for a long time before crashing into a cliff.

And the whole world fell silent, as if deaf ears were covered.

I couldn’t understand what had happened. Some unknown force broke the monster’s momentum and moved it somewhere. Now I see that the monster’s scales are everywhere.

Everyone’s eyes turned to the waterfall.

A silhouette of a person slowly walked out of the thick fog.

In my hand was something of pure white light.

As he swung his arm once, an intense light rose and flew towards the monster on the opposite wall.

Once again, an explosion filled with pain echoed.

The wind blew from the valley, and the water mist slowly swept away. And his face was revealed.

He stood tall, holding his mysterious sword.

The monster raised its body, half of its scales off, and began to escape by climbing the wall.

He swung his sword one last time, and the wave of light exploded again, nailing the monster’s head like a nail.
