In an instant, Elio found himself completely enveloped in a carbon box.
Would the Locus attack the box?
Or, unable to see Elio anymore, would it ignore it?
The first seconds were of tense silence.
Then, to Elio's consternation, he heard the unmistakable sound of a blow against the carbon.
Elio could feel the vibrations in his body, a reminder of the brute force that the Locus possessed.
The monster was attacking the box.
"Damn it," he muttered, his mind working frantically to process this new information.
Elio knew that with the Locus' attack of 10, each face of the box would only resist 42 points of damage, five hits before giving in.
"No time to waste."
Without hesitating a second longer, Elio signaled to Wide Guard, his faithful elephant, the wall behind him.
He had to create a hole in the back of the box... But his elephant could do it without spending mana.
