Chapter 363 - Struggling For The Life

ROAR!

As if the beast understood what did Desmond said, it roared and flapped its wings, causing cracking sounds to be heard along with the appearance of many cracks, spreading like a spider web on the surface of iron bars.

At that moment, many lightning sparks flew and hit those wings that eventually making the beast groan in pain. Hence, instead of calming down, the beast became fiercer, suddenly slammed its narrow beak against the irons bars.

Thump!

Like a knight with their horse charging at full speed and ramming into the soldier's formation, the crack on the prison widened after the collision, causing those iron bars to ring aftermath continuously and dispersing all of those lightning sparks that eventually formed a cloud of smoke.

Crack

At the same time, the four magic crystals that were reinforced the prison with lightning sparks were found split into many pieces of the fragment that were scattered on the floor.

On the other hand, Desmond, standing close to the prison, was still crossing his arms on the chest and narrowed his eyes at the cloud of smoke. If one looked closer at him, there was a faint layer of the golden barrier surrounding his front, protecting him from harm.

Wheeze

As soon those lightning sparks vanished, a buzzing sound when a bee flapped its wings could be heard and without the support of magic crystal, the iron prison slowly turned back into the origin, crumbling like a sound of the wave from the sea with much dust slowly replacing the white cloud of smoke.

When Desmond looked at this, he did not look surprised. The surrounding natural energy had been gathered around him,as he was preparing to use a spell.

ROAR!

Before the dust and the smoke fully dispersed, a gust of strong wind suddenly blew from the prison, forcefully dispersing all of the dust and cleaning the floor from the crystal fragments.

The cauldrons that were placed on the side were about to fall when multiple hands suddenly came from the floor and grabbed hold of the cauldrons, preventing the blood on them from spilling out.

Desmond glanced at the cauldrons and when he found that blood was safe, he shifted his gaze to the beast that was standing with ragged breath with its size already twice than before.

If Desmond had not designed this room with the concept of the main hall, the ceiling probably might crumble due to the beast size.

The beast that should be 'The Ancestor of Flying Lizard' used its forelegs to support the chest while its neck bent down, deeply staring at Desmond with its giant beak almost touching his barrier.

The oval small black eyes staring at Desmond, no one could guess what it thought. It did not immediately attack Desmond as it suddenly felt something different and challenging from him.

The look on its eyes did not see Desmond as food; instead, like a dragon spreading its wings to show its majesty, it spread its orange membrane wings with its long tail began circling around them, forming a circle with its large fin blocking the vision from the outside as if it was trying to prevent Desmond from escaping.

On the other hand, Desmond's expression gradually changed from the cold into strange when looking at the beast's behavior. He looked at the surrounding green-scaled tail that kept circling like a snake trying to crush its prey before eating it.

"Felix?" As he asked the faint golden barrier already surrounded his body from all of the directions suddenly flickered when a fin accidentally touched it. However, his slit magenta pupils directly looked at the beast's eyes without fear.

At the same time, the moment his golden barrier flickered, a transparent screen suddenly flashed on his eyes, showing a screen about the progression of getting Felix's data back.

[Successfully entering the target body!]

"Ohh," Desmond gasped. His gaze that was full of curiosity from before was slowly filled by a burning spirit when he looked at the additional attribute behind its species.

No wonder I feel Felix seems to be weakened, it seems the beast's blood did not fully integrate or adapt with a new body, causing his stats to decline, he thought.

The prison and the lightning sparks he set up were actually not enough to stop Felix if he suddenly began rampantly. In addition, he also did not expect the transformation would instanly restore the main body strength.

It seems my case is really special because I even need a few days to recover, He thought and then slowly observed the beast with full of interest.

However, before Desmond could feel the joy, the giant beak had vanished from his view. The tail that was circling around them, giving him enough space for his body suddenly narrowed, trying to squeeze his body.

The next moment, a pitch-black along with a stinky smell suddenly came to contact with his barrier, causing Desmond to be a bit startled.

Crash!

As Desmond's mage class has not yet reached a 1st class realm, the barrier he made was easily destroyed like a glass met a hammer, shattered and then faded into thin air.

After the barrier was destroyed, the pitch-black shadow was finally revealed as Desmond saw it was the beast open its giant beak, trying to swallow his tiny body in one gulp.

However, before that happens, Desmond raised his hands, casually grabbing the beak with bare hands, stopping the momentum and halting the beast's movement.

In addition, Desmond felt something and then glanced around. Its tail was already pressing against his body yet it was stuck, unable to squeeze the meat and only circling around, causing him to feel a tickling sensation.

The beast widened its small black pupil upon sensing Desmond's great strength and resistance. It suddenly wanted to retreat yet, it found it could not pull its giant beak.

"Cluck?!" As if the beast realized it was too late and the danger ringing in its sense, it then tried to communicate with the tiny creature. It let out a sound like a chicken crowing mixed with some groan sound.

"Even your adult version cannot kill me with their full strength, but you? A newborn doesn't know your places," Desmond sneered. At the same time, his hands that were holding the giant beak began pressing the beak with his full strength.

Rumble

Green blood began flowing from the giant beak while the beast was moving in rampant, jumping and wreaking havoc in this room in panic which almost destroyed the cauldrons in the process.

The beast tried to break free from Desmond's grasp by moving its body around however soon the beast found it was a useless struggle as its giant beak slowly began crushed by those tiny hands.

The beast began to regret its decision, hopelessly looking at Desmond while the pain of like being crushed kept transmitted into its brain.

On the other hand, those multiple hands moved the cauldrons to a safe place, while another prison was formed around Desmond and the beast.
