Chapter 60: Forest Centipedes (1).
Hearing the loud shout from Jake, Leo quickly grabbed the stunned two skeletons beside him, before jumping away from the ground.
Crack...
Boom!
Gravel and soil flew into the air as thick sands began to hover in the atmosphere, restricting their vision for a couple of seconds before instantly getting cleared by the wind. Showing the body of the insect to them...
This...
Showing a shocked expression, Leo stared at the 2 meters-long dark brown body of a seemingly snake in the distance.
No... It's not a snake, but to be precise, it was a 2-meter-long centipede!
Click... Click, click!
The Centipede created a clicking rhythmic sound as it began to move its hundred legs that were akin to daggers.
Seeing the humanoid species in front of it, the centipede makes a sound similar to a laugh as it charges toward the nearest humanoid creature in its sight.
Click, click.
"F*ck, do you think that you can eat me easily!" Due to the drastic changes and also being shocked by the sudden appearance of the centipede, Rosa couldn't help but utter the F word as she raised her staff high above before stabbing it toward the soft ground.
Restrain!
Swish! Swish!
Instantly, thick roots covered with sharp long thorns emerged from the ground, entwining the body of the centipede, creating a grinding sound as the roots tightened their coiling.
The long thorns embedded its body, greatly wounding the brown segmented body of the centipede and at the same time restricting its movement.
TSSSS! (Sound created by Centipede upon feeling pain.)
Click... Click!
"That's what you get for..."
Rosa was about to heave a sigh of relief when suddenly, the ground again trembled (Much stronger than before) as another 8 similar centipedes broke from the ground. Making the group's expression solemn.
This...
Kristine waved her hand in the distance as she hid the body of Roy behind her. Calmly summoning dozens of sharp blades made of air, before shooting toward the centipedes in the distance.
Slash!
Slash!
Swish...
Unfortunately, with speed that was much faster than feline, other than the restrained centipede in the distance, the rest of the centipedes managed to evade the sharp wind blade easily.
...
Ding!
In the distance, as Leo entered his invisibility mode, he immediately used his soul scan to scan the nearest centipede in the group.
Ding!

"Watch out for Acid and Borrow! They could Spit acid through their mouth and increase their overall recovery under the ground!"
Leo's shouts reverberated in the forest, causing the group to nod their heads in understanding as they focused on dealing with the enemy.
Seeing this, Leo again entered invisibility, leaving the two dark skeletons standing confusedly in the distance, not knowing what should they do.
...
Boom!
Click, click, CLICK!
Back to Kristine, seeing that the centipedes easily evade the dozen wind-blade. Roy behind Kristine, quickly summoned his sketchbook from the void, immediately flipping its pages before stopping at 3rd page.
"Arachnid! Come out!" Shouting in his cute childish voice, the sketchbook instantly flew away from his arm, being suspended in the air before quickly enlarging by a hundred times!
Click! Click!
Followed by that sound, the huge 2-meter-long black sharp feet of the arachnid came outside the sketchbook, causing Kristine and the Centipides in the distance to pause for a while.
This...
Kristine mumbled absently, as she stared at the giant arachnid summoned by his brother in dumbfounded. ( First time seeing Roy using his sketchbook that directly summoned a tall Arachnid from it.)
Moreover, its strength almost matches her!
Ding!
[ Black Arachnid (5:00)- Foundation level 2! ]
Still not done, Roy spread his little arm, retracting the sketchbook that was suspended in the air before using his other skill "Doddle Army".
In an instant, upon activating the skill, the soft soil under him cracked before slightly enlarging.
Crack! Crack...
Crack!
Parting the soil away, a white thin arm similar to a stick man rises from the ground, followed by one and another.
Soon, in the blink of an eye, dozens of stickmen holding different weapons ranging from shields, swords, and bows, encircled Roy and Kristine in the middle. Ensuring their safety as they faced the direction of centipedes.
Ding!
[ Doddle Men (7:30): Mortal level 15-20! ]
Finally summoning his Army. Roy's legs suddenly bend down, gasping in exhaustion as the white cat hurriedly supported him.
"Are you okay!?" Kristine upon regaining her senses, finally saw her exhausted brother before hurriedly helping him.
"Hmm." Roy nodded his head slightly as he stared at the chaos happening in the distance.
...
Boom!
Boom!
Shadow Bullets!
Vine Entanglement!
Dozens of thick roots grew from the ground as they tried to coil the body of the approaching centipedes in the distance to no avail. With the numbers and speed of the enemy, Rosa couldn't concentrate on one, causing her attention to be divided.
Shield Enlargement!
Seeing that Rosa failed to stop the Centipedes, Roland immediately raised his shield in front of the group, using the skill attached to his shield, instantly enlarging the shield by 2.5 times.
Boom!
Caught off guard by the sudden enlargement of the shield, the fastest centipede heavily collided with the shield, causing Roland and the Centipede to pause in stillness as if Roland was an unmovable mountain.
Not letting the chance slip off Sebastian quickly pointed his pointed finger toward the body of the centipede as if his hand were made of gun.
Overload Shadow Bullet!
Bang!
A ball of darkness with a diameter of 6 inches, shoots toward the body of the centipede in an instant, caving the body of the centipede before creating a huge hole in its body.
TSSSS! Tss, tsss!!!
