I am an Eldritch Entity

Chapter 126 Chapter 126: Good coordination

Eryndor couldn't switch to his second form because the reason was pretty obvious. It was way too close to the two high ranking members of the Human Federation.

What if Sol or Morris had some way to sense eldritch presence?

The secret realm was as big as a state, true, but he didn't even know where he had been teleported, there was no map of the secret realm. What if he was in the area right next to the entrance?

That was where he saw Guardian Sol was assigned to stay guard. He would be pretty fucked in that case.

There was also another way to avoid fighting.

He could just go out, take the bag, and return. His own speed was definitely enough to dodge them.

But let's be honest. Did he want that?

Nope, I feel like fighting.

Passive cultivation had already refilled his Qi reserves. From the looks of it, this cave also looked pretty large, it might take a few hours to explore all of it.

He didn't want those humongous beasts outside during his time in the cave. Even though the cave looked pretty firm and stable, there was no telling if those beasts were capable of collapsing it.

His Sovereign's Cloak and Crimson Armor cultivation art might probably be able to save him but the potential clues, if any, would be lost.

As he walked towards the entrance, he typed a message describing the beast's appearance, how he fought it, his speculations of its weak spots, and how many points he got from it, and sent it to the group chat.

She still remembered he was only in the early stage of Qi Gathering realm when she met him in the shared dual training room.

Second stage? Third stage? She didn't remember, but it was definitely only in the early stages.

But now?

She had already looked up information about Terramorph Ravagers. Their lowest level in this secret realm was at mid stage of Latent realm, but judging from their physique, their combat prowess was at peak of Latent realm.

Doesn't that mean Eryndor was at least at stage seven of Qi Gathering realm to stand a realistic chance at beating the beast?

What kind of monster was he?

She was already surprised when she came to know Drakarion, Valentina and Paulina were at stage five of their respective power systems, but this? Fuck.

Seeing her reaction, the rest of the team members looked up information about the beast Eryndor had defeated.

Without missing a beat, he activated Shadowstep, slipping past the incoming blow.

His body blurred, climbing the tall tree nearby at breakneck speed and jumping off a branch, reappearing behind the neck of the second beast.

His spiked mace whistled through the air—momentum, detachment, strike!

The unpredictable shift in direction allowed the electrified head to slam into the beast's exposed nape.

Sparks crawled across its flesh. A crackling snap followed—one of its many eyes burst, sizzling from within. It reeled, while Eryndor stepped on its body systematically to descend.

The remaining three had encircled him, their coordination was too good, almost unnatural, it was dangerous.

One slammed its massive foot down to crush him. Eryndor, whose feet had just touched the ground after being so high up in the air, didn't have any time to dodge.

It was a good thing he already had his Crimson Armor activated, crossing his hands above his head reflexively, he reinforced himself just as the foot landed on him.

Blood spurted out of his mouth as he withstood the beast's attack.

Looking up at them, he activated his Shadowstep to quickly move out of the way as soon as the beast lifted its foot.

Eryndor ran around the forest, taking several chances to hit the beast while his body dripped blood onto the ground.

But it was too difficult.

Even if he baited one of the beasts away from the group and hit it, before he could even inflict serious damage on it, the rest would've caught up to him.

He also wasn't able to cross check if all the beasts were sensitive to movement or if it was just that one beast, the battlefield was too chaotic, he would need thorough preparations to check that.

Second attempt failed, time to run back to the cave.

Five well coordinated peak Latent realm beasts were simply too many at his current stage. He would need to come up with more strategies.

He didn't know they were THIS amazingly coordinated.

He had already controlled his travel bag and put it in the cave while the beasts' attention was on him.

I'll be back, you bastards.

Eryndor thought, as he ran back to the cave.

He would definitely kill these beasts, but now it was time to look for clues.
