Feeling deeply deceived, Saint Zachary flew into a rage. He transformed into his beast form instantaneously and charged towards Muir with his giant pincers raised.
Just then, splashing sounds of water descended from above, and a large stretch of moisture spread out at the depths of the earth fissure.
The human and scorpion were already sparred with each other. That loud splash caused the scorpion beastman's actions to halt imperceptibly and his side eyes to roll backward.
Hmph, this tactic again? For how much longer are they planning to pour in water?
Though Saint Zachary didn't feel a tinge of fear, the water level under his feet seemed to be rising way faster than it did previously. Was this an illusion?
His momentary distraction gave Muir breathing space, and even though Muir didn't get a chance to attack the scorpion beastman these few rounds, he didn't get injured either.
