Captain Rose ran up from tree to tree using her amazing skills to catapulted herself from one tree to another tree a few metres away ...
in a few minutes she arrived before what could be called a crater .. yet it didn't have any signs of a battle ... ...
'This must be where he found the last piece of the clue .. ' she thought to herself as she jumped into the pond hole ...
she was oblivious to the fact that there were hidden holes where she was walking ... however she was aware that there was a small hole up ahead with a small puddle ..
she walked up to it .
however before she even took her tenth step she suddenly fell ..
her feet sunk into a hole and slid at a fast pace before falling on her butt at the bottom ..
and the first thing she saw when she arrived was a silver tail whooshing at her at a fast pace .. definitely deadly ..
before she panicked she immediately activated her chest piece ..
dark blue electric streaks ran around like electric serpents slithering around her torso ...
she then braced herself for the impact as the tail connected with her chest which sent her flying into the wall causing her to cough up a mouthful of blood ..
she then stood up ... and took the chance to take a stance as she looked into the distance where the attack had come from ...
however instead of an attack coming at her this time .. it sounded to come at something situated a little bit deeper .. a few metres apart from her ..
although she felt like the attack was for her .. she immediately disregarded it because it seemed as if like .. the thing inside warfighting against something ..
so to be on the safe side .. she followed behind it's sounds ... and from the vibrations the earth gave as it slithered from hole to hole ..

'Damn .. I shouldn't have done that ..!!! now I'm done for .. captain where are you ..!!?' Theo shouted internally as he jumped to the side to avoid getting chomped down by the razor sharp fangs the silver snake introduced to him ..
and just as his hope dimmed down by a lot ... he heard fast vibrations making contact with the earth underground not too far away from him and the snake ..
and since the snake had stopped in its attacks and eyed him weirdly with hate .. he understood that .. there was someone inside the underground lair with him and the snake .. and he couldn't be more happier ..
"Captain Rose .." he muttered as a beautiful angel appeared from behind the snake with a dark blue armour constantly creating electric energy crawl around her body ...
"I told you to inform me immediately after you find something .. but no .. you decided to engage it personally ... what were you thinking ..!!?" she shouted launching her feet off the ground after landing ...
she then stood beside Theo with a frown on her face ..
"Your death would've been in my hands you dummy ...!!" she slapped the back of his head and snorted coldly before gazing back at the gigantic snake infront of them ...
"Hello captain .. come in .. I'm in some deep trouble .." Theo said his finger on his earpiece as if trying to relay a message to her .. through it ..
however what came as a result was a screeching and disturbing noise inside her ear which made her wimp ...
"What are you doing ..!!?" she took her earpiece out and threw it on the ground staring daggers at Theo ..
the latter returned her glare with a nonchalant expression bearing no emotions ..
"I'm just trying to contact you .. and guess what captain ..?? we're underground ... the service and network is lost ... we can't contact each other .." he said before looking back at the snake ..
"You made your point .. sorry ... " she rubbed her cheek nervously with a slightly rosy expression ..
"Now .. do we attack or wait for this thing attack us ..??" Theo asked with his bow already in his hands .. his bone arrow nocked on to his string ready to shoot it out...
"Let's wait first ... I've fought this kind of creature before .. and it's better if we attack it at the same time at different spots .. because it can't sense the two of us immediately .. and since you've prolly led it to a place where it's threads are no longer created .. this is going to be easy .." captain Rose said with a resolute expression ...
however ... Theo was dumbfounded by the fact that ... it wouldn't sense the both of them ..
wouldn't that be farfetched because it has already climbed through the ranks and reached the fifth stage of the Silver Rank ...
"Uhm .. captain .. the snake is already at the Silver Rank .. the mid Stages ... I don't understand how it wouldn't sense .. us .. I might agree to the point you've put up that it can't sense us when there are no threads .. however .. we're not dealing with a newborn .. right now .. we're dealing with a Silver Rank ... " he voiced out his opinion of which the captain smiled at ..
"I don't need to explain to you .. you'll just have to figure it out .. amidst our exchanges ... with it .." with that .. she ran straight at the giant snake ... with an arm length gun already pointing at the snakes forehead ...
' O-kay ...' he raised an eyebrow 'I'll just figure it out ..' he then leapt through the air .. and ran on the walls .. on the left side whilst the captain attacked on the right ...
"Now ..!!!" the snake looked at Theo before turning its head as it glared at the captain ..
she then shot out three bullets .. the size of her hand ..
one would've thought that .. she wouldn't handle it's recoil however .. judging by how she took it into her hands .. it seemed so much lighter than one would think it was ...
the three bullets changed their trajectory .. one flying upwards and flying straight at its forehead ... one shooting straight where it's 'neck' would be located ...
the last one going for its weak spot ..
the snake shook its head in frustration as it was being played with .. with three bullets that could crack one of its scales ..
Theo on the other side kept his gaze locked onto the snake's movements .. and for sure he saw that it struggling to keep up with the bullets ..
however when he looked into it again .. it seemed more like .. it couldn't figure out which bullet was which ..
he pondered about it as he shot an arrow at the snake .. with a red hue enveloping it ...
'Maybe it's because it cannot sense .. their signature ..?? no it can't be that .. obviously .. the bullets have heat .. meaning it must be ..' when he looked up to it .. he bore a smile before his arrow bounced back after making contact with the indestructible scales ..
"Sound ... it's major weakness is sound ... why didn't I think of that ... "
he said happily before merging his weapons back to his large sword which he instantly slashed at the snake without hesitation ..
from what he discovered from Captain Rose's words .. and actions after she shot out the three bullets .. the snake was ready to stop them all
. however each bullet had a different sound ... or maybe each bullet made sound which disturbed it's senses ..
it couldn't figure out which bullet was going to be the first to make contact because each bullet made sound waves .. which couldn't be ignored .. and since it could only sense human heat signatures and maybe other heat signatures .. it couldn't sense sound .. and this was disturbing it's senses making the soundwaves crash against it's senses preventing it from sensing which was which or when they were going to make contact ..
*Hissssssssssss!!!* the snake raised its head up high and hissed angrily as the bullets and Theo's sword made contact with its scales ..
and then again Theo discovered that when two or more attacks are thrown at it ... at the same time .. the damage doubles making a huge critical hit ...
he then staggered back and looked at Captain Rose who had returned to her spot long before he made it back ..
"I assume you have figured it out ..." she said looking at the snake that was hissing and slamming it's giant tail continuosly on the same spot ...
"Yes ... it wasn't hard to find it .."
[Warning !!!!]
[ Warning!!!!]
[The Imperial Snake has entered it's enraged state .. !!
Note: When entering it's enraged state .. it's power grows more fivefold .. boosting it's power and attacks by 15%.. it's senses become more stronger and it's defence gets more and more harder to get through ...
Hint: It's enraged state has a limit .. find a way to weaken it whilst it's still in its enraged state because if you don't ... it's power will return to being full when it's finally out of its enraged state ..]
the two looked at each other before nodding ..
they then took off .. the captain on the right and Theo on the left ...
unsurprisingly .. the snake swung its tail at the captain and its head went straight for Theo with its mouth opened widely ...
Theo vanished from his spot using his lightning attribute and swung his huge sword at its weak spot under its chin
.
however ... the snake reacted quickly and took the attack head on as it chomped on his mighty sword ...
and because of its higher tier .. the snake wasn't able to eat through it and only managed to keep it inside its mouth ..
it then shook its head violently swinging Theo from this spot to that spot ...
captain Rose was dealing with its tail with her arms in a cross shape defending herself from its attack ...
'It isn't supposed to be this strong .. it's only at the Golden Rank now .. how is this possible ..!!' Theo cursed inwardly as his muscles became very sore from holding onto his sword ...
