Boom!
Bona's body slammed into the wall.
Shaking off the gravel on his body, Bona held his chest and coughed lightly.
"Damn. What a terrifying power."
Bona looked up at Calhemus, who was fighting Robocco not far away. He gritted his teeth and waved the staff in his hand while enduring the pain.
"I don't just practice Necromancy."
The water got summoned in front of Bona at this moment.
"Taste this! Chain of Corrosion!"
He chanted his magic loudly, and the color of the water controlled by Bona gradually turned green.
The moment he felt that his control over the water got stripped, Calhemus noticed this troublesome fellow again.
"Roar~" Calhemus summoned water to form a shield in front of him in an attempt to withstand the attack.
However, to his surprise, the chains went through the water shield and wrapped around his body.
What is going on?
While Calhemus could not understand the situation, he tried his best to break free. However, the parts of his body that contacted the chains began to emit a foul smell.
Roar!
With a cry of pain, Calhemus kept struggling to break free. Yet, he realized that the binding power of this thing was more horrifying than he had imagined.
"What's wrong, ugly freak? Do you know how powerful I am?"
Bona chuckled as he pointed his staff at himself gently. Then, a few streams of water pulled him out of the cracks in the wall.
At the same time, Bona's partner grabbed the opportunity to release his battle aura.
Sensing its master's actions, Liveras opened its mouth wide and spat out flames.
The blazing flames fused with Robocco's battle aura, turning into a beam of light charging towards Calhemus.
In an instant, a large hole immediately tore open in the chest of Calhemus.
"Did we succeed?"
Bona, who was holding his chest at the side, staggered over. He grabbed his staff tightly and stared in the direction of Calhemus.
If he found anything amiss, he would cast his magic spells to deal with it immediately.
"Roar!" A roar came from Liveras's mouth. Robocco, the owner, warned, "Be careful! It's still alive!"
Calhemus was much more difficult to deal with than they had imagined.
It made things troublesome for them.
When the smoke dissipated, Calhemus, bound by the chains, collapsed on the spot in a sorry state.
However, neither Robocco nor Bona were content about their enemy's predicament.
"It's healed again." Bona waved his staff. He looked at the healing wound on Calhemus's chest with an ugly expression.
Robocco had the same expression. Ever since the battle began, they could not effectively kill the other party no matter how much damage they inflicted.
"What's wrong with this guy? Is his magic power limitless?" Bona spat out a mouthful of blood, then looked gloomily at Calhemus, who had stood up again.
"It's a demonic creature that mutated after a ritual. Don't use common sense to assess it."
Although the situation was dire, Robocco did not panic. He calmly explained as he began to think of a solution.
At this moment, Robocco noticed that it got eerily quiet behind them.
Have all of Bona's dead souls been devoured? The progress is slower than I imagined.
"Got an idea. We can lure this demon to the ritual square behind us."
"You mean?" Bona's eyes brightened as he immediately understood what he meant.
"Alright. Let's do it."
Why is this damnable fellow so tough to deal with? Is it that hard to let me beat it up?
Calhemus stood up again. At this moment, his body had changed.
Muscles began appearing on his octopus body while his ape arm began to shrink.
His upper body gradually became balanced, and Calhemus began its evolution.
If Bernal saw the current Calhemus, he would surely find him pleasing to the eye.
Calhemus began to reveal the characteristics of a human gradually. He had an upper body of a human while his lower body was still those tentacles.
The wings on his back flapped, and Calhemus, who had become more powerful, continued charging without hesitation.
"He's evolved again. We can't drag this on anymore. If this continues, we'll be exhausted to death by this guy."
"I understand. I'll be the bait. Wait for my command!"
[Battle Aura Skill: Chain of Hatred]
Robocco's battle aura began fading significantly as a dark gold chain with some rust surrounded his body.
Under his control, the chain flew towards Calhemus.
Another chain!
Calhemus was already brooding over the Chain of Corrosion from before. Now that a similar thing had appeared in front of him, he got furious instantly.
He turned around and rushed towards Robocco.
"Very well, everything is going smoothly. Come up quickly."
"I'll be right there." Upon hearing Robocco's call, Bona quickly used the same trick to make his body lighter before jumping onto Liveras.
The entire process was a success. Under the influence of the Chain of Hatred, Calhemus targeted Robocco and chased after him.
As the chain could cause the target's emotions to fluctuate violently, it could put the target in an irrational state to a certain extent.
Therefore, Calhemus stared at Robocco's back closely for the entire pursuit without thinking about anything else.
Bona, who was sitting on Liveras's back, glanced at the ferocious appearance of Calhemus behind him. He said to Robocco.
"I feel like even the rats in there can't deal with this guy. This thing is too horrifying."
"It might not be that terrifying. In addition to their numbers, those rats might have other abilities that we have never seen before."
Despite saying that, Robocco was not too optimistic about the giant rat.
If there was a reason, this sea god-like demonic creature could totally drown all those rotten mice in it.
If the mice inside the cave really did not have any other means and could only reproduce, then the guy behind him was bound to win without a doubt.
"Don't worry. I have an idea. I don't expect the rats inside to defeat this guy. We only need them to hold him back."
As he spoke, Robocco looked at the three beastfolk sisters on Liveras's back.
Bona noticed Robocco's gaze and looked at him in disbelief.
"Don't tell me you're activating the ritual alone, do you?"
"Do we have any other way?"
