Chapter 3884 Killing the Prime Monster
?It is bad.
Once it had dealt with the black fire; it would focus on me and then I could forget killing it. I could wait for others to come at me, but that would take an even with them. It would be a struggle.
I shook my head and stopped attacking before moving back.
Thankfully, it won't come to that.
The injuries did their job, provided a way, and kept it distracted enough, that it didn't sense the third net.
'I should kill it,' I thought, but I didn't move to kill it. Instead, I watched how the power suppresses the black fire.
It had already destroyed half of it, and in a few seconds, it would destroy the other half.
It is not something. I get to see it every day. A Prime, under the suppression, with the power of the peak of Sky Sovereign. The data I am getting is too much, that I am risking myself to not kill it immediately.
Seconds passed, and finally, all the black fire whittled away, and I could see, the red energy transforming and moving to heal the damage it had caused while the monster turned at me.
"You want to kill me?" I asked with a smile.
ROAR!
It roared and moved at me with all its strength. It is fast; even the strings were able to slow it down enough, that I would be able to dodge its attack.
Nor do I intend to.
Rip Ri Rip
"Die!" I breathed and ripping sounds rang out.
I didn't hear them, but the monster did. Its eyes widened before the shine of life began to disappear from its eyes as my strings cut its three hearts in thousands of little pieces.
I was attacking earlier, not to kill it. I know it wouldn't be possible.
I wanted to take my strings inside it. Where defenses are as strong as outside. Still, it wouldn't have been possible if the black fire hadn't been distracting it; it is the biggest reason, I was able to kill it.
I looked at it for a few seconds before waving my hand. The body of the monster disappeared.
I didn't move immediately. Instead, I waved my hand again, and the monster came out. It also had tentacles, the metallic one and its eyes widened seeing the environment.
It is not in its little cage anymore, but in the vast sea.
"You are free, little octopus," I said. It seemed to understand what I meant, before it looked at me for a moment, before shooting out.
Within seconds, it disappeared from my view. 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝔢𝔴𝖊𝖇𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖊𝔩.𝔠𝔬𝖒
I have got everything from it. The data, I needed and the metal; there was no use in keeping it unless I wanted to kill it and eat.
It would have been quite tasty. Beneath all that metal is soft tasty flesh, but doing that would have been a waste of this amazing monster, which I feel had the real chance to make it to the prime.
Especially after the help I had provided.
It had eaten a lot of metal essence fruits, honey, and other extremely rare materials. It had brought a transformational change into the monster.
I had placed a lot of seed inside it, and they would hit even deeper if it was able to make a breakthrough. I will sense it if it is close to me.
Though, I didn't keep too much hope.
The sea is vast and filled with danger. The monster could kill for the next hour, or it could decide to stay in this suppressive zone. It won't take long before it becomes one of the most dangerous monsters in this place.
It had the potential to become powerful enough that even a man face squid wouldn't be able to kill it.
I shook my head and pushed away thoughts. There is no need to think about it further.
'I think it's time,' I said, three and half minutes later, and swam toward the ship. I moved stealthily till; I reached near the sensory zone before coming out.
Halfway toward the ship, I saw the monsters running away. They have sensed the death of their leader; there is no need to keep fighting anymore.
Blop!
When I reached the ship, I saw many of the Sky Sovereigns floating around it, including the captain.
"Do you kill it?" he asked. "Your arrows had done most of the job; I only finished it," I replied.
A clear relief appeared on his face and the faces of those listening.
"We have dealt with the horde, but we are still in the suppressive zone. Till we get out of it, I want everybody to be alert and ready to deal with any danger," said the captain.
Nobody said anything, but we all moved toward our position. There are a few hours more, before we can finally rest. Once the prime comes, we will be fine.
It won't be completely safe, but we will have the shield. We won't be the last line of defense against the life and death of the ship, which is a burden, I don't want to bear anymore.
I closed my eyes and looked at the soul waves.
Seeing no danger, I focused on myself. Most of my injuries are healed, but the shock from the attacks had affected my soul, it will take a while to heal that.
I am not worried about the damage. It won't affect me unless I face a monster as powerful as the man-facing squid.
It might happen; the suppressive zone is vast. There is more than enough space for a couple of powerful Sky Sovereign or suppressed prime.
Hours passed, and we were only a few minutes away from getting out of the suppressive zone. I am not worried about the horde anymore and focusing on the man's face with squid, which had answered why it was in a suppressive zone.
It was not a perfect breakthrough. It had reached the Prime, but its core hadn't formed perfectly as it should.
The suppressive zone had helped it deal with that problem and even heal it. A decade more and it would have fully healed from it and would have been able to get.
Unfortunately, it made the biggest mistake of its life and ended up losing it.
It had provided me with the massive data. It is not data about Prime stage, that is valuable, but how the prime stage gets suppressed in places like this.
This suppression zone had one of the most comprehensive types of suppression. This means, even the anti-suppressive method, didn't work here; the data that comes from it is most complete.
It is extremely useful to me, because of the forbidden power.
With the data, I will be able to use my abilities at greater precision to deal with suppression. Clawing back, even with the slightest power, could make one most powerful in such an environment.
If the squid could have used even 1% of its Prime strength. It would have massacred us all.
Hun!
I was studying the data, when I returned to the real world as I felt myself getting out of the suppression zone.
As we did, the powerful aura of Prime bloomed out. It did not come from the sea but from the ship.
The prime had come out of his little bunker.
