The boy nodded and they continued on their journey on the back of the Frosty. Along the way, They were cautious and kept killing the black-stage Shadow Cat that they encountered.
By late in the night, They noticed that they had already entered the top twelve rankings. Most teams' battle points had stopped increasing as they had stopped hunting for the night and decided to set up a camp to rest.
The duo kept traveling until they heard the waves of water colliding at the shore. They dismounted and trudged their way toward the coast.
"We have to look for a peculiar location and find the special beast," Nyla said, as they didn't know the exact place to find their target.
The magenta-haired beauty and Rio walked side by side, looking for any clue that would help them find the special beast.
Their steps were crushing the soft sand beneath their feet, leaving their shoe marks behind and the cool ocean breeze brushed passed their cheeks.
As they were traveling, they soon came across massive pipe-like marks on the ground as if someone was dragging something heavy on the sand.
It was one meter in width and the length was not definite as it kept going in a certain direction.
'What could it be?'
Rio stopped for a moment, bending down to examine the place.
"Look at the size of these tracks, This beast seemed to be something like Python." He murmured.
Nyla nodded, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings. "Sweetie... We need to be careful now. The special beast should be very close to this place." She warned with a concerned tone.
"We can just follow the mark," Rio stated, looking ahead toward where this mark led them to.
The pair continued on, finally reaching the end of where the tracks finished.
Nyla's brows shot up looking at the place where the marks came to a stop. There was a meter-long large pit in front of them.
The girl wanted to go forward to peer over the edge and take a glimpse to find what lay at the bottom but she felt her hands were grabbed as the boy stopped her.
"This is our only chance, if we are lucky we won't have to fight," Rio whispered.
There was darkness all around them but soon she saw a light glowing in the boy's palm.
He cast [Overload Destroyer] to compress a vacuum in the skill [Obliteration of Heaven] as the boy turned to gaze at Nyla.
Rio said with urgency in his voice using telepathy voice, "There is going to be a big explosion here.
If the special beast is inside, then he'll most likely die, but if he's outside, he'll come after us with all its fury.
I won't have enough mana to take on that AI creature again after charging this battle art technique, so we need to make a run for our life as soon as I use the attack. You need to stay a hundred meters away with your mount, so we can make our escape immediately."
"But I don't want to leave you alone here," Nyla said in his thought, her eyes sadly looking at him as she thought he was going to hurt himself.
"I have two ways to escape if the beast chases me but in case you stay here then there is a higher chance of getting hurt." His words sounded rude but Nyla understood what he meant, She was stubborn but she believed in him.
The girl walked away from the one-meter pit, as the blue light in Rio's palm intensified with every passing second. He was using [Overload Destroyer] to compress his [Obliteration of Thunder] skill otherwise the small orb would've already reached a human size by now.
Nyla was standing a hundred meters away from him, the girl saw the blue light glowing in his palm. The illuminating blue orb was giving her chills just looking at it which explained to her the destruction Rio's battle art technique was going to cause.
After charging with nine percent of his mana, Rio walked in a reverse manner from the pit before confirming at what distance he could send it away.
When he was twenty meters from the big hole, he kicked the ground with his thunder-enchanted foot to shoot toward the sky.
"Heaven Destroyer!!"
He threw away the blue orb in the direction of the big pit in the distance. Just as it was traveling, the glowing blue orb vanished in thin air when it appeared again its trajectory had been changed and the strike was falling towards the big pit.
Rio cast [Devlin's Movement technique] to vanish away from his location, as a blue figure buzzing with thunder traveled towards Nyla at full speed.
*Shriek!!!*
The special beast had detected the upcoming danger and let out a loud, piercing cry, showing its fear and anger towards the terrifying attack.
Rio turned around just in time to witness the incredible sight.
As the blue orb [Heaven Destroyer] made of [Overload Destroyer] and [Obliteration of Heaven] traveled towards the big pit, a white head suddenly emerged from it.
The orb collided with the white head of the special beast, causing an explosion that lit up the ground in a dazzling display of blue and white light which spread to cover the sky in its brilliance.
The sound was deafening, like a thunderclap that shook the very ground beneath their feet.
The force of the explosion hit Rio, Nyla, and her mount like a physical blow, sending shockwaves through their bodies and causing their hair, fur, and clothes to ripple and flutter in its wake.
The ground trembled, creating ripples of shockwaves through the nearby forest, trees swaying and shuddering, their leaves rustling and falling to the ground.
