As its entire body temperature rose while being attacked on multiple fronts by explosions on its wounds, the 3rd stage woodpecker opened its beak in pain, temporarily affected.
Even though its mana and characteristics were far above those of a level 1 Acolyte like Rory, the bird's injuries and underestimation of its opponent caused it to scream in pain, revealing its plight to those around it.
But Rory's movement was far from enough to stop the 3rd stage woodpecker's attack, let alone endanger the beast's life!
The woodpecker continued on its way to Rory's chest, glaring furiously at its target now that it had seen a bit of the human's abilities.
Bang!
The three men next to Rory fired the last bullets in their guns at the wounds on the relatively large body near them.
