"Ah!" Lucas's agonizing scream echoed through the great hall, chilling to the bone.
As the Thorned Rock Serpent bit into Lucas, John's staff flashed again with a yellow-green glow.
Sharp fangs within the gaping maw of the serpent began to grow wildly; in the blink of an eye, dense, thorny spikes pinned Lucas firmly within its jaws.
Blood rained down from above, staining the serpent's head a deep crimson, making its already fearsome visage even more brutal and terrifying.
Lucas frantically swung his blood sword at the Thorned Rock Serpent.
The sharp blade met little resistance, slicing into the serpent's body.
Soon, Lucas had inflicted numerous wounds on the serpent.
Just when it seemed Lucas might escape, what happened next shocked everyone present!
The serpent's wounds began to heal at a visibly rapid pace.
The cuts made by Lucas's blood sword were healing almost instantly!
Everyone gasped in astonishment.
