'SCRHGHHHHHHH….'
"GET BEHIND ME!!"
Queen shoots the giant centipede as it crawls toward both of them at the speed of light. Riz take the needle that was lying on the table and uses it as a dart to throw it at the creature. The needle hit its body but it was deflected by it hard shell. The centipede crawled at its fast speed to charge near them. It spits it secretion toward them but they manage to avoid it as well.
The 'CREATURE' crawls with a zig-zag pattern to avoid their attack. Its body manages to be unharmed from it, with those spits of the purple liquid. Who knows what will happen if manage to get onto their skin? The liquid that it spits contained high acid poison that can digest its prey which causes the prey unable to move which is called paralyzed after it has been hit.
'WARNING…WARNING…SELF-DESTRUCT SEQUENT INITIAL COUNT DOWN FROM 100'
"OH SHIT!" the both of them know things getting worst…. that sound makes it even worst than fighting the centipede!
Meanwhile, Lilith, Hikkun, Seven and Eight who was about to be near their location can hear the echo from the passage that lead to them. The four of them walk until they see them, it seems they were struggling to fight the creature. Seven who was excited when seeing a battle was dying of excitement from laid in front of him can't contain his happiness.
"HELL YEAH !!! THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" he take his out something from his pocket and throws it like a javelin. The knife went thrust through the creature as it shrieks in pain. It can be retracted back to his hand due to the chain that was on it. He then sprints toward the creature to attack it more. Soon after that, Lilith also sprint toward that creature as she let her katana blade out to swing it toward the creature leg. Queen backup the both of them by shooting using his bow.
The creature gives them back the blow by spitting his acid liquid and was shield by Eight using his mana shield. It use it leg to attack, when it near them. The three of them were fighting the creature to distracted it from the other.
Hikkun ran toward Riz, "I'm fine, but we need to get out of here" she said to him and they agreed upon to their situation. "We need to collect some evidence! If I can hack the system then…" as he about to explain it, Riz shake her head and signaled it that; they don't need it. He then just accepts the order that Riz just did and understands it, There must be a reason if she asks not to save this place. Even it means that this evidence will be buried forever. "Well, then we need to get going then…" Eight who was back up from fighting the centipede neared them. He was waiting for further instructions was also agreed with her judgment on their situation, He howl to Seven who was still fighting that they need to leave the place.
"TCH!" he snorted at the sudden retreated order that was given by Eight and pull his knife back from the back of the creature. "YOU KNOW THE DRILL SEVEN !!" Eight shouted at him as He ran toward the exit. Riz and Hikkun ran out already from there first, which left others there. Lilith still wields her katana and tries to deflect the attack that the creature did on her. "BOTH OF YOU, GET OUT OF HERE!!" upon hearing the order Lilith drag Queen with her as they ran leaving only seven there to fight the creature. Queen was shocked by the sudden grab of his hand and was pulled over by her to make their run from there. 'Why I being dragged!'. Lilith turns her head and looks at Seven who still fighting the creature. She shouts as loud as she can," I'm leaving this creature to you Seven!!" she bid him a bit of good luck before she ran from the scene.
"TCH! ALWAYS LEAVE THE HARDER PART OF THE JOB! BUT THAT WHAT MAKE IT EXCITING!!"
The creature 'hiss' at him while the background sound of the system alerted him to the count down. The only people who were there is him and the creature. He look at the creature and the creature did the same thing toward him. "I'M AFRAID THAT THIS IS GOOBYE, SINCE BUT GOOD THING MUST HAVE THE END!!" He takes out from his pocket an item that seems similar to a stone and pulls it out and throws it toward the creature. He quickly ran toward the exit as he changed into his wolf form, the real reason he change was because he was fast in this form rather than in human.. The creature catches the thing and eat it, without even betting it eye on Seven who manage to flee from that place. The creature then try to follow him but it felt it stomach wasn't feeling so good.
It puffs out a cloud of smoke and it wiggles it body in pain. The creature felt that its body is burning. It turns out the item that Seven gave was an explosion that he made. It is a new type of device he made for fun. He tries to use it on Night to get back what he has done toward him. He was thinking of making a prank that was putting this thing in several buildings at Night territory to explode. But never in his mind to be use it to fight the creature as weapon. He can be heard that the creature is wailing in pain since the item that he made is a bit more powerful than he enticed.
"5...4.....3....2...1"
"BOOM!!"
He manage to get out for the mine and when the countdown was hit zero from his behind the explosion destroyed the mine which lead to its crumble. He was a bit late when he was out and due to the explosion. He was fly up in the air and over because of the explosion wave. He stumbles down with a big hit on his body. The last thing he remembers is his Eight running toward him with his always worried face.
A day after that….
Riz reported the accident toward Evan what was really happen but not fully all the information, she left out the detail of the man know her real name and he said about he know her. Meanwhile, Seven were hospitalized due to the explosion wave. It seem his leg was broken when he fall that time. Eight have to take care of him and he been nagging him of he always jump into fight when he see their one.
Lilith feel guilty after that and ask Riz for forgiveness because she wasn't a bit of help toward her, but Riz reinsures her that she did the right thing and she can manage it even though Lilith wasn't there. Queen after the fight he went missing cause Lilith who drag him out together that time was clueless on what really happens. She was sure there were a man when she drag with her, but by the time they were out, he was disappeared from her hand. What most shock when she ask the others, they said there were only Riz, Hikkun, Eight, and seven, well included her when they were fighting. When she visits Seven to ask the same thing, Seven said she only see her and there was no one fighting with them at that time.
After that Evan makes sure the drug has been disposed of and nobody can get their hand on it. The news about the effect of the drug has been told to civilians and was been ensured that everyone who has to consume it goes to the hospital for further quarantine. Most people who did not manage to save have been burned since they turn into a living corpse.
Riz gives Hikkun the item that she obtains from the monster that she fights and it seems that this thing was not a normal item to begin. It is from an ancient city that disappeared a long time ago. This island was named Illusia because it was named after one of the five dragons that created this place. Well one of them is Evan who takes care of the harmony between the beastman. But the most important among those five was this one. It was said that the legendary sea dragon protected this island and its home was inside the ocean.
The beast-man from the water folk that lives in the sea under the island worships it. The legend said the dragon sleep within the ocean near the Illusia. Deep inside the ocean, a temple was made for it. The dragon slumber inside it and protect something that is more valuable than anything. That was the story that has been passed down from one generation to another.
It seems to be, that the next Adventure Riz needs to do had a connection with it….
