The towering bug monstrosity landed one of its massive black legs right on their heads, forcing them to jump in all directions, breaking their formation. Before they could get up, a splash of bright green acid followed the simple attack of the monster, covering a large area that none of them could run past in time. The crowd cheered wildly at their dire situation.
Evante screamed hard, releasing powerful sound waves that made a hole in the oncoming splash, but it was still not enough—even a drop could burn a hole through their bodies.
Alex gritted his teeth. He had to use it.
Quickly, he grabbed the runic tool with his left hand and channeled his powerful second-ranker mana into it. Suddenly, a gigantic wave of water pulled itself out of the runic tool and materialized in the form of a massive snake, made entirely of water. The water snake's form rivaled that of the emperor-ranked beetle.
