SSS Ranked Shadow Monarch: Summoning Infinite Shadows-Chapter 256: Stronger Monsters
RAWRRRRRRRRRRRR!
A werewolf roared as it rushed at Aren, its red eyes glowed through the fog, locking on Aren.
"Tch, annoying." Aren said. He lunged forward, dodging the attack of the wolf before grabbing it by the neck and immediately drove its head down into the ground hard, his eyes looked up, locking onto another that was already rushing at him.
"Tch, they just keep coming." Aren complained before summoning a shadow wolf that appeared and immediately lunged at the wolf, ripping into it very fast, with loud growls and ferociousness.
"Where the hell is this door" Aren complained as he rose to his feet, he looked ahead, another werewolf was incoming, he unleashed a claw strike that cut the head clean off. He charged in that direction as more were coming, his movements fast and precise, evading every wolf while countering with speed.
He drove his fist into the head of one, shattering the skull of the werewolf.
Unknown to Aren, his soul fragments were steadily rising as he fought.
[Level up, 4 stat points]
Aren was stunned when he saw that, eyes widening in shock, it had been a while since he got the level up message.
"Well that’s a shocker." He muttered and then pushed on.
Time went by and after one hour, Aren was unable to find any door.
He stopped, feeling like something was wrong. He looked at Athena, "If anyone should have been able to find the gate here, it should have been me." Aren stated.
"I don’t think it’s as simple as she said." Athena expressed. "I feel something is very wrong with this place." Athena added, looking around.
When she said that, Aren paused.
’Exactly, when has the trials ever been as simple as they said?’ Aren thought to himself, he looked ahead in one direction.
"Athena, come with me." Aren said, she looked a bit confused, but she followed, Aren ran in a straight line while she and Fang followed behind.
He realized something, because they had been told to find the door in the fog, and the entire place looked like it had no end, everyone simply assumed they were inside a void rather than trying to find the end.
If this place had an end like a room, then the door would probably be on the wall.
As Aren rushed ahead, he summoned more wolves, creating a formation around them, attacking any werewolf that dared attack, ensuring that not one came close.
They kept moving fast, when suddenly, a werewolf that was far larger than the rest burst out of the shadows, extremely fast and powerful, Aren couldn’t even react in time before the claws slashed into his armor, it didn’t penetrate but he was instantly thrown back.
"Aren!" Athena screamed his name, she looked at the werewolf and instantly anger filled her, "Die!" she yelled, her eyes glowed even more, the chaos ripped through the air and slammed into the werewolf.
BAM
The force ripped into the chest of the werewolf, throwing it back as blood gushed from the chest.
It slammed into the fog, hitting the ground hard and skidding away, but it wasn’t done yet. From the fog it burst forward, attacking Athena, but Riker rushed out of the fog, using his horns, he slammed into the werewolf extremely hard and tossed it to the side.
The werewolf skidded across the floor, then it used its claws, digging deep into the ground to stop itself. It breathed heavy and locked eyes on Riker now.
Riker pointed his sword at the werewolf, "I have failed master multiple times at this point, I’ll not do that again." He said, shooting forward, he pulled his hand back for a powerful swing.
The wolf knew better than to just take that, so it rose to its feet fast, then used its claws together to block the attack.
CLANG!
The collision sent sparks flying, Riker and the werewolf were both knocked back, but Riker didn’t relent, he shot forward again, his body bursting with strength.
"Arghhhhhhhhh" He roared as he slashed with everything that he had. The werewolf blocked this, but was thrown back further.
Riker gave immediate chase, "You’ll not get away" he roared, slashing down.
The werewolf, seeing Riker, immediately clawed into the ground, stopped itself and then looked up, releasing a powerful howl that shook the entire surroundings, the force of the howl slammed into Riker, throwing him back.
Riker slammed into the ground, rolled and immediately got up, firing forward again like a bullet, he and the werewolf entered into the fog, where sparks of their collision were all that was seen.
Aren walked out of the fog and met Athena, she looked worried, but the moment that she saw him, she calmed down.
"You are alright." She said.
"Of course, you should know it takes more than that to take me down. Let’s keep moving ahead, we must be onto something, and that’s why the stronger monsters are coming." Aren said.
He looked ahead, and dashed while she followed behind. As they moved, another one of the powerful werewolves leaped over all the wolves to attack Aren, Aren didn’t even look at it.
"Fang" Aren called.
"Rawwwwr" Fang growled as he leaped over everyone, biting right into the werewolf and slamming it into the ground.
The both of them hit the ground hard and were pushed aside, the werewolf rose to its feet and immediately pounced on Fang, but Fang immediately unleashed a terrifying thunder and flame breath that slammed into the werewolf, throwing it back through the air.
The werewolf slammed hard into the ground, rolled but didn’t attack again, it let out a roar as it rose to its feet, and a certain red energy swelled and enveloped it, increasing all its stats instantly as well as bloodlust, but Fang was unfazed, he charged ahead.
Unleashing a barrage of lightning, the massive bolts traveled toward the werewolf. The werewolf, rather than dodging, decided to tank the attack, the lightning slammed into its body hard.
