Chapter 1188: The Monster Is In Weakened State
William's friends were just about to cross the safe border, and get rid of the monsters. "They can't remain high above, and can't get here… That short zone is the only place they can stay in…"
Fang didn't delay and sent a message towards Sar, Anjie, and Lara, telling them everything using spirit telepathy.
"He doesn't want us to come down?!!" The moment the three ladies spread the news, everyone couldn't help but question their doubts.
"He says it's deadly for us," Lara paused, looking at the other two girls Fang picked to deliver his message, "we need to be extra careful even here…"
"What about William?" Berry interrupted her, and the other three didn't know what to say.
"He promised to help him," Anjie stepped up, "and he said William is fine and alright."
"But…"
"We can't get down there," Lara sighed, "he said it clearly, we'll end up dying if we dared to step past the tunnel. Something is protecting us here, and we can handle ourselves in this place. But down there, it'll be death."
"And we are going to be a liability for him," Sara cleared up her throat, while speaking in a very suffocating tone, "the best we can do right now is to sit tight and hope he'll manage."
She hated such situations, the same like everyone else. They came here to help, but it seems they were going to be a liability instead.
They trusted themselves better than anything, but Fang wasn't someone to take his words lightly. He was one of the top three in the world, and he seemed to harbour good intentions to all of them and William.
If such a person said it was lethal down there, and they'd be a hindrance for him and William, then they had nothing to say against that. And what made them believe him more was the fact that their spirit sense got crushed the moment they extended it beyond the opening of the tunnel.
They all tried to see what was laying down there, but failed. At the same time, the trembling of the ground came more frequently, and they started to worry if even the tunnel they were in would sustain all this.
As he gave them a warning, he turned around and focused on William and that cloud. "What's going on here?" Without waiting to arrive at William, he spoke with the youngster using his spirit telepathy, "what do you need me to do?"
William was just struggling to move forward when he heard Fang's voice ranging in his mind. He abruptly turned, looked around while spreading his spirit sense.
"What are you doing here?!!" William was surprised to see Fang here. It was something he never expected to happen.
"Speaking as if you have full control over this," Fang harrumphed, and yet William's next words, the ones he said with a shout, forced Fang to stop flying, and even head directly to the ground.
"Do you want to die? Get down at once and establish a spirit regeneration array!" William shouted with disbelief, before he realised something.
"The monster… It's getting either too focused on me to miss Fang, or it's growing weaker and can't spread its deadly effect to distant places…"
William was walking towards the monster, prepared to start a deadly battle with it. And yet when Fang came, everything changed. It didn't change thanks to Fang's presence, but thanks to what William noticed.
It was supposed for the monster to absorb anyone's spirit power fast and kill any person in a few seconds. Even if Fang was much stronger than him, William was sure he would have died in less than twenty seconds.
Fang wasn't only fine, but he was so fine to even speak and fly over towards him without any problem or threats. William's shout was just a precaution, out of impulse, and now he realised Fang wasn't in any danger of any sort.
That all pointed towards the monster's weak state. And it meant William didn't need to directly confront it head on. "If it was pushing itself beyond the limit, then it's time to change plans."
William looked at Fang, who was now at the ground, laying down arrays to regenerate spirit power as William warned him.
Fang already got the answer he wanted from William's shout, it was all the doing of that black cloud thing. Even if he didn't know if it was a monster or what, he knew there was a way to stop his spirit power leak. And so he started to make many arrays to protect himself.
"I need your help, will make formations like before for you, and you'll rain that cloud thing with your lightning," William's voice came to stop Fang from what he was doing. He already built five arrays, and was in the middle of adding more.
"Can you come over?" he looked at William, and the latter seemed to struggle to move around fast enough. He was limited by the arrays his five monstrous weapons were building, and got little room to move through.
"I will send one of my boys over," William had to do this as he couldn't reach Fang in time, "just do as this…" he started to explain everything over, and Fang grasped what was going on here fast.
He looked at the black cloud, while asking himself why he was getting to meet weird stuff since meeting up with William.
He had materials enough to make tens of these formations, but he didn't even speak a word about that. He knew William would know later on, and Fang frankly didn't care. To him, all he loved was to amass more materials, and he wouldn't give any for free.
The formations he used already were important to secure his life and others. And he got paid already by lots of materials to do this. He even had lots of materials he didn't need and didn't know what their values were. But he'd swap them for the materials he wanted, adding enough stock to make up twenty more formations if he wanted.
