214: Abyss Monster's Magic Circle

"What is that?" Leng Yi cried out in surprise.

Unlike Fang Wen, who was in a blind spot, the few New Students standing further away could see clearly: it was a massive Wave-Soothing Demon, so tall that the water flowing over the dam couldn't even reach its thighs.

Its towering size naturally brought immense power; other Wave-Soothing Demons were casually tossed aside like infants as it looked upward with a wary expression.

Without a doubt, it was staring at Fang Wen above. Even separated by a layer of concrete, they could sense each other's powerful aura.

"Bang!" After a brief standoff, the Wave-Soothing Demon King suddenly lunged upward, and the solid concrete floor shattered immediately.

Fang Wen's reaction was equally swift. The Steel-Tailed Snake beneath him swung its iron tail downward instantly.

Not only that, but the Furious Iron Rhino nearby raised its foot and stomped, actively shattering the concrete floor below.

Under the combined effect, the concrete between them instantly turned to dust, and the Steel-Tailed Snake's steel tail collided with the Wave-Soothing Demon's sharp claws.

"Roar!" The Furious Iron Rhino landed in the water and immediately let out a furious roar toward the surrounding Wave-Soothing Demon horde.

This was not just uncontrolled rage, but its Roar Skill. A violent sonic wave spread out from its center, instantly sending the Wave-Soothing Demons who tried to rush forward flying.

On the other side, Fang Wen did not remain on the Steel-Tailed Snake's body; his presence would only interfere with its fight, so he lightly leaped onto the nearby ground.

After the initial strike, the Steel-Tailed Snake became entangled with the Wave-Soothing Demon King.

"Hiss~~~" Both the demon and the snake let out low, serpentine growls. The iron-like snake tail collided with the Wave-Soothing Demon King's sharp claws, producing a grating sound.

The Steel-Tailed Snake chose not to engage in close-quarters combat; although its body was tough enough, being bitten by an Abyssal Monster was not a pleasant experience.

Of course, it wasn't without other means of attack, but it kept swinging its steel tail, tangling up the opponent.

At the same time, the Wanderer Duck and the Six-Tailed Calico Cat, who had originally been slacking off, rushed over.

Especially the Five-Star level Wanderer Duck, whose longsword flashed, directly severing a section of the Wave-Soothing Demon King's tail.

"Sssha~~~" Facing three enemies simultaneously, the Wave-Soothing Demon King let out a low growl, its demonic energy surged, and its entire body grew taller again.

"It's demonized! But it still shouldn't be a match for the Five-Star Wanderer Duck!" Lin Chen said in a deep voice.

Many Abyssal Monsters possess the ability to demonize, which allows them to greatly increase their attributes, and a creature of the Wave-Soothing Demon King's level would certainly possess it.

But at best, it is only three-star itself. No matter how much it strengthens, it cannot be a match for a Five-Star Spirit Beast; it is merely causing some trouble for Fang Wen.

"Sssha~~~" The Wave-Soothing Demon King roared, and countless Wave-Soothing Demons immediately rushed forward from all directions.

"Roar!" The Furious Iron Rhino's roar became even more violent. It swept its long tail, swung its claws, and coupled with the continuous sonic impact, the surrounding Wave-Soothing Demons found it difficult to surround it.

"Awesome! This is the true Furious Iron Rhino!" Zeng Ran said excitedly.

The violent fighting style of the power-type Spirit Beast, at this moment, possessed the shocking might of one man guarding the pass against ten thousand men.

"Sssha~~~" The Wave-Soothing Demon King hadn't expected so many of its subordinates would fail to rush over and support it. It roared and launched an attack on the Spirit Beasts nearby.

The violent attack power forced the Steel-Tailed Snake to retreat; its massive size was not as nimble as the Six-Tailed Calico Cat.

However, the Wanderer Duck was completely fearless of such attacks, easily moving around the Wave-Soothing Demon King. Every sword strike left a deep, bone-visible wound on its body.

"Sssha~~~" Unable to land a successful attack for a long time, and with its own injuries growing increasingly severe, the Wave-Soothing Demon King immediately felt the urge to retreat, turning and fleeing back toward the dam interior.

"Quack! Quack!" The Wanderer Duck immediately squawked and chased after it, with the other Spirit Beasts following close behind.

Fang Wen frowned slightly. He activated Spirit Skill: Spirit Eye, and through the vision of the Steel-Tailed Snake, he saw the situation inside the dam and immediately trembled.

"What is this?" He couldn't help but cry out in alarm. Everything he saw was demonic energy that had spread out and become almost solidified.

But this wasn't the most alarming part. What truly shocked him were the blood-red array patterns lighting up on the ground. Whenever something like this was involved, things became complicated.

"Damn it, something really happened!" Snapping back to his senses, Fang Wen cursed angrily. He pulled out his communicator to message his teammates while simultaneously instructing the Furious Iron Rhino to use a large-scale skill to see if it could shatter the great array.

"Roar!" The Furious Iron Rhino roared upon receiving the order. Standing in the filthy water, it stomped its legs onto the ground.

Immediately, the earth shook, and the sewage churned. Lin Chen and the others could feel the ground shaking even from a distance.

"Holy crap! What is he doing? He doesn't want to tear down the dam, does he? That's intense!" Leng Yi exclaimed.

"No! He really intends to tear it down. Did he discover something dangerous inside?" Lin Chen frowned.

"Most likely. He took out his communicator, so he's probably calling for backup, right?" Zeng Ran said, watching Fang Wen's movements.

All four of them were startled. That person was a Five-Star Beast Tamer!

He needs to call for help just to deal with a group of two-star and three-star Wave-Soothing Demons? What exactly did he find inside the dam?

"Boom~~~" The rumbling from the ground grew louder. It seemed the earthquake effect wasn't very strong because the Furious Iron Rhino was performing it in the mud, but it was enough to cause the surrounding dam to collapse.

Fang Wen continuously retreated, while simultaneously sending instructions to the Spirit Beasts inside, telling them not to go too deep, to maintain a safe distance from which they could withdraw at any time, and to be careful of the collapse above.

After performing a round of earthquakes underwater, the Furious Iron Rhino leaped up onto the surface and performed the earthquake skill again, causing the entire dam and the nearby ground to completely collapse.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! How annoying!" As Lin Chen and the others watched the scene in horror, they suddenly heard someone else speaking nearby.

Everyone was shocked. They turned their heads toward the small grove nearby and saw a man wearing a black robe walk out. He lifted his hood, revealing a handsome yet morbidly pale face.

"It's the Redemption Society!" Lin Chen immediately recognized the newcomer. The symbol on the Black-Robed Figure's robe was exactly the same as what he had seen during the College Entrance Examination.

"Oh! You have good eyesight, don't you? Unfortunately, you ruined my plan, so death is your destined end. But given your intelligence, I can choose to leave your corpse intact!" The Black-Robed Figure looked at Lin Chen and smiled. A black shadow flew out from behind him and lunged toward Lin Chen and the others.

"Chirp~~~" Morning Dew took action immediately. Several beams of golden light descended from the sky, intercepting the black shadow.
