Chapter 52: 52. Titan Gorilla
Dexter summoned his black, shadow spear for the first time and then he immediately used one of its skills.
'Shadow search.' The shadow attached to his body suddenly detached and he was seeing, whatever the shadow was seeing.
"New skill?" Leo asked as he saw what Dexter did.
Dexter only nodded as he walked slowly like the rest of them while using his shadow to sweep the area.
"Stop." Dexter suddenly said as he saw something not so far away on a tree.
"There's a creature not far away from here on a tree." Dexter said as he looked through his shadow to see the big blue cat on the tree.
The tail looks like that of a panther and since it didn't have spots or stripes...
"What type is it?" Laurence asked.
"I'm not sure, either a panther or leopard. And it's not a titan." Dexter said observing the van-sized creature.
"I'll take care of it quickly." Dexter said before suddenly vanishing, stunning everyone there.
A person in a black robe suddenly flew out of the shadow of the tree towards the cat that slept peacefully on the branch.
Remembering the advanced spearmanship he began to spin his spear rapidly using only one hand.
He didnt waste any time as he stabbed the panther in the head without alerting it. The spear went through its skull as a cracking sound resounded and the creature let out a faint cry before dying.
[You have slayed level 13 mutated panther. You have gained 204,800 spirit points, you habe gained 530 Heaven's tower points.]
[You have levelled up to level 11. You have gained 3 stat points to distribute.]
[You have levelled up to level 12. You have gained 3 stat points to distribute.]
'Woah. So much spirit points.' Dexter thought as he put a finger on his chin.
"So if we fight as a team the points will be distributed equally." He nodded.
"And it seems like the Heaven's tower points are multiplied for killing titans." He also noted.
He kicked the creature off of the tree while removing his spear and he jumped down himself into another tree's shadow and vanished.
...
"What do you think? He could have been killed." Chapman said while looking forward into the forest anxiously.
"Should we go look for him–"
"I'm back."
"AH!" Chapman shouted in surprise as he suddenly saw Dexter beside him.
"I've dealt with it. But I didn't see much monsters within the forest." Dexter said as he furrowed his brows.
"As if they were all hunted down?" Zain said and Dexter looked at him with a raised brow and he began to consider it.
"Let's just keep heading–" Laurence stopped as they suddenly felt the ground beneath them shake, as if something big was approaching.
Big blue bats then began to fall from the trees as they couldn't sleep with all the shaking.
They screeched as they saw the humans below and dived downwards to attack them.
"Up above!" Dexter warned them as he jumped and slashed at one with his spear, killing it.
[You have slayed mutated bat level 6. You have gained 1600 spirit points and 55 Heaven's tower points.]
'Level 6?' Dexter was confused as he thought that there would be only creatures of higher level here.
Upon seeing how fast they were dropping down, the bats saw the humans were very strong the rest of them just flew away to seek another resting place.
The group then turned back to where the vibrations might be coming from.
Dexter sent his shadow which moved on the floor like snake ahead of them. Then he saw it.
"This way!" He said as he jumped on a tree branch and continued that way.
They stopped on a particular tree and they looked forward to see a twenty-five meters tall gorilla and they were all stunned.
"It wasn't this big before." Leo mumbled and Dexter just nodded.
The gorilla currently battled with another titan; a large white snake which curled around it, squeezing it.
The gorilla held the snake's neck with it's large arms, preventing the snake from biting it.
The snake squeezed on the gorilla hard and the gorilla bit the skull of the snake, making it let go.
The oversized ape then threw the snake to the floor and then pounced on it.
*BANG!*
"Damn." The others were shocked to see a battle between titans.
Almost quarter of the forest was destroyed by the still ongoing battle. The battle between titans was both thrilling and terrifying to watch.
The gorilla killed the white snake and then roared loudly to announce its dominance.
It had multiple wounds on its body and looked very weak now.
"The snake should be a python so it shouldn't be poisonous. If not the problem would be solved on its own." Chapman said and the others agreed.
The gorilla was currently weak and it carried the snake before hanging it on its shoulder and walking deeper into the forest.
"What's it doing?" Zain mumbled but Laurence was already way ahead of them as he already leapt to another tree, following the gorilla.
"Follow the captain." Chapman said as he too followed and the rest of them went too.
...
'Damn, just that teleportation took more than thirty points of my spirit energy.' Dexter thought as he monitored his spirit energy bar.
[Spirit energy: 113/140 (regen. = 1 per minute)]
'Damn. I haven't had the chance to use the spirit energy absorbtion technique. If I get back I'll try it out.' Dexter thought as he followed behind the gorilla.
Soon the beast came to a halt and they all jumped up a tree to see what it was doing. There was a giant, circular hole which was a little more than 50 metres in diameter. The hole was in the middle of a sea of trees.
"Woah. We wouldn't be able to spot it even if we climbed a tree." Chapman said in astonishment.
The gorilla then knelt down in front of the hole and placed the dead snake beside it.
All of a sudden, a transparent blue energy surrounded the snake and it then floated up into the air before entering the hole.
"What the...?" Chapman couldn't say anything.
"What was that?" Zain too was confused.
"What should we do captain?" Johnny said as he put his hammer on his shoulder.
"It's weak and vulnerable. Of course we'll attack it right now." Laurence said as he glanced back.
"Oh shit! It noticed us!" Zain said and they got ready to fight.
