Endless Evolution: Last Star

Chapter 692 Stone Leap

Silvana's eyes went wide, in disbelief. Even though she was using shared sight and saw everything that Adam did, she could barely comprehend what just happened.

All Silvana saw was the Mighty Commander appear in front of Adam ready to crush him with his jaws, then a black flash covered in purple energy threw the huge monster nearly a hundred meters away.

'Wait... Damn! He planned all this from the beginning!' Silvana internally exclaimed when she realized what that incredible physical strength and purple energy was.

Crackle.

The Mighty Commander wasn't stupid, so he understood it even faster than Silvana, abruptly climbing out of the deep void in the wall.

"GRRRRRRRRRH!"

With an annoyed glare, the Mighty Commander leaped forward, interrupting the powerful flow of the waterfall for a moment, finding himself on the round platform opposite Adam.

"Well, well, looks like you didn't turn out to be as strong as I thought, did you?" Adam smirked slyly, kneading his right hand, it was in deafening pain, radiating a familiar warmth from the strained muscles.

Then, Adam's expression grew more serious as he examined the Mighty Commander. His tough hide was cracked at the head, and his back was bleeding from the impact of the wall at this speed, but that was all Adam achieved with one of his two gravity blasts.

The Mighty Commander was irritated, this was clearly not what he had expected. Adam just hit him instead of trying to stop him.

"Hey."

Adam waved his hand before taking the same stance again.

"Did you think I was going to let you just pounce on me and tear me apart? If you want to do that, you're going to have to get through my defense."

Step.

Spreading his legs wide, Adam's eyes grew colder.

"But, I'm warning you, I have another equally powerful punch left, and... I've already realized that hitting you over the head doesn't make much sense. You're too tough."

The Mighty Commander's red eye narrowed as if pondering Adam's words.

Oddly enough, it didn't take more than a few seconds for the playful expression to return to the Mighty Commander's face, the flames inside him only burning stronger.

Whooooooooooooosh.

With the next breath, slicing through the wind currents with knuckles, Adam's fist plunged into Mighty Commander's belly.

The thick, rough hide tried to absorb the damage, to dissipate the momentum across the Mighty Commander's large body, yet it quickly reached its limit.

Thrust.

Streams of blood rushed through the open rips, the supple hide torn like a frayed piece of cloth fluttering in the wind.

Dark drops of blood flooded Adam's face as the last and most powerful pulse ripped through his arm.

The impact threw the Mighty Commander high into the air, in seconds the massive shadow traveled from the lowest point of the cave to the highest, crashing back not into the softening water flow but into the sharp stalactites hanging down and the purple crystals full of energy.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

An active shudder comparable to a meteorite crashing in multiple waves swept through the cave, shaking even what was far above, be it the maze or the higher levels of the fortress.

The Shadow Walkers and the Dark Watchers stopped, looking around in bewilderment before directing their gazes downward.

They didn't know what was going on in the caves, but it wasn't normal for the fortress they were accustomed to, there was a major change coming.

Splash.

Wide bursts of blood spurted from above, falling both on Adam and into the water around the circular platform, coloring it crimson.

Adam's eyes remained serious, he didn't allow a smile to appear.

'I was disappointed when I couldn't hurt the gate, but... it also works for monsters. In the Pacific Lands, any monster would easily shatter ordinary stalactites or crystals with its back, but here... in the Wild Lands.'

'It gave him serious wounds, I'm sure.'

Then, his eyes narrowed.

'However, a few stone spikes aren't enough to kill you, right?'

Two bright amber glows appeared behind the dust veil, growing brighter and brighter followed by a deafening roar.

"ROOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR!"
