Chapter 532 Arad Vs Shi: Two Monsters

Thud! Arad took one step forward after telling them what he saw.

"I knew it," Zephyr sighed, "I did sense a slither of human mana from that thing."

"What was that stone? Can we reverse this?" Nina stood atop the mountain beside Arad.

"Doma says we can't. The change is physical, and it's already taken root." He said, "Our best bet is to leave,"

"That isn't easy," Eris stared at him. "We could have left it alone if it was a tarrasque, but now we don't know if it will ever stop."

"That thing is a tarrasque," Zephyr said, staring at Shi in the distance. "Or should I say, it's becoming one?"

"[That crystal was most likely crystalized tarrasque blood. When Shi touched it, she gained a tarrasque bloodline but then lost control of the power when she raged.]"

Arad waved his hand [Gemini]. He split into two people so Doma could explain more easily with magic.

"[Do you know how draconic bloodline sorcerers can develop wings or scales when they get strong enough? It's a result of their blood transforming their body's genetic traits and getting closer to the perfect body for that power.]" She waved her hand, creating a large humanoid shape with magic, showing the wings growing on its back.

Doma then pointed at Shi, "[She's the same now. Her body is adapting and evolving to contain the power in her blood. It's already late now that it's started.]"

"There has to be a way to save her," Nina stared at Doma, but she shook her head, "What little humanity was left in her that Zephyr sensed had already dissolved in that blood. That's a wild monster now, and we can't let it roam the world."

Nina growled, "Fine, I will finish her off," She stepped forward, but Arad stopped her, "You aren't. You can't resist the blood."

"We don't know that," Nina glared at him.

CRACKLE! CRACKLE! The barbarian clan rushed through the mountain, reaching the peak where Arad and the girls stood, "Monster, great one?" Nina's father stared at them.

"No, Shi," Nina replied.

The barbarians stared with stunned faces, "The monster?"

"We barely understand it," Jack stared at the barbarians, "But we must stop her before she wreaks havoc on the lands,"

Lydia pulled her sword, stabbing the ground, "Can't holy magic help? I have a lot of it,"

"I doubt it," Zephyr replied, "That isn't an evil being. It's a poor creature in pain, trying its best to survive."

Eris scratched her head, "If she lost control of it that means her mind is either dead or given up, and it's only her body trying to evolve into an immortal tarrasque."

Arad cracked his neck, "I'm going to end this. Support me from afar,"

Nina grabbed his shoulder, "Don't go alone,"

"I'm the only one who can face that thing without dying upon contact," Arad replied, pushing her hand away. ZON! He teleported away, and everyone stared in silence.

Thud! Arad appeared in front of Shi, staring at her with a passive face. "We meet again,"

Shi, now reduced to a rampaging beast, stared back at him in silence for a moment.

ROAR! She roared, swinging her right arm down at Arad's head.

Arad lifted his left arm, blocking her attack as the ground beneath him exploded from the sheer pressure.

Two purple eyes gleamed from the dust as Arad transformed into his draconic form, lifting Shi's arm up with him. "You aren't the only big monster around here,"

He swung his right claw, releasing a blast of void at her head. The shockwave sends Shi rolling back, tainting the forest red with blood.

Arad stared at his forearm, seeing his scales falling off.

Arad glared at Shi, prowling around and waiting for her to make a move.

BLOP! Shi's body disappeared into the ground as if it were nothing, and Arad blinked. His bare claws are touching the ground, yet he can't feel her dig around.

He looked down and started tapping his claws on the ground, baiting her toward him.

SWOSH! Out of the ground, Shi's massive jaw emerged right beath Arad.

Arad smiled, opening his jaw to breathe a blast of inferno right in her throat.

The crimson flames gushed out, but the moment they touched her mouth, they bounced in her throat before shooting back at Arad, sending him rolling into the sky.

[HP:975/975]=>[HP:912/975]

He stared down with a grin, "I thought you can't reflect things inside your mouth,"

Shi glared at him as she sank into the ground without disturbing it.

"That thing is evolving and adapting, I better finish her off before she becomes capable of reflecting anything I throw at her."

He expanded his wings, turning in the middle of the air and soared down to the ground, flying close to it while activating gravity magic to lift chunks of the forest.

SWOSH! Out of the ground, like a crocodile jumping at its prey, Shi lunged with her jaw open, aiming at Arad's neck.

ZON! Arad teleported away, letting the stones he gathered fly directly at Shi's head.

SWOSH! The stones fazed right through her body as she landed on her feet.

"Dirt, stones, and anything ground-related pass right through her body as if she isn't there. Is that why we can't hear her digging around?" Arad mumbled as he hovered in the air.

[Earth dragons have an ability called earth glide that allows them to pass through the ground like ghosts. The tarrasque might have something similar.] Mom explained.

Shi squatted down, her body sinking into the ground as a grunt escaped her throat.

As Arad saw her retreat, he knew that he had to keep pushing her. If he remained in the air for long. She could leave and attack another place.

"No time to waste," He dodged down and landed on the ground. noVE/lB.1n

The moment Arad landed, Shi came out slowly, staring at him.

Arad smiled, "Time for more, come at me,"
