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.

...

*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.
