Chapter 231 - Cunning Opponent

Chapter 231 - Cunning Opponent

The surroundings instantly quieted down.
Only the flames were burning.
Both sides were waiting.
They were the most experienced hunters, waiting for the opponent to reveal a flaw and then deliver a fatal blow.
Suddenly, a flame moved.
It was very small, just that the flame slightly deviated from the predetermined burning direction, but it immediately turned back.
An ordinary person wouldn't be able to notice such a tiny change.
But Klein saw it.
No, he should have felt it.
It was the wind!
From the moment he entered this place, there was no wind at all.
Then, what else could have triggered the deviation of the flame?
Klein immediately brandished his Golden Firestorm Saber.
The red saber was like a rubber as it swung towards the flames.
Clang!
The sound of metal clashing resounded throughout the area.
Klein felt a numbness between his thumb and forefinger as the Golden Firestorm Saber in his hand was nearly flung away.
He then looked at the target and saw a figure being chased out.
"Is it a monkey?" Klein couldn't help but say when he saw the figure coming out.
This monkey was very strange. It was very thin and small, as though it didn't have half a body but only skin.
Its skin wrapped around its bones, making it look very shocking.
This monkey was black.
There was a lot of white mixed in between its fur.
But it hadn't been washed in a long time. The fur on its body had long been knotted up, making it look very dirty.
The only thing that caught Klein's attention was its eyes.
Those eyes didn't look like normal monkeys.
No, they shouldn't look like the monkeys he had seen in the zoo in his previous life.
Instead, they were as black as ink.
There wasn't a hint of white in them.
It stared fixedly at Klein. Its exposed teeth showed its ferocity.
Klein didn't dare to be careless. Taking advantage of the moment when it revealed itself, he hurriedly brandished his Golden Firestorm Saber again.
The monkey was visibly cautious. It moved and instantly jumped seven to eight meters away.
Then, it concealed itself once again in the dark of a mountain.
'It's a little tricky,' Klein thought to himself.
Although he had seen enough strange things in the catacombs, none of them were as tricky as the monkey in front of him.
Especially when the hand was invisible. It didn't seem to show itself because of the attack.
That was very powerful.
That was because you had no idea when or where it would attack.
Most importantly, Klein couldn't afford to waste this opportunity!
Maintaining such a large-scale fire consumed a lot of magic points, but if he relaxed, the other party would definitely find an opportunity. It would be even more dangerous when that happened. It seemed like he couldn't afford to delay any longer!
With this in mind, Klein's right hand moved slightly and he actually activated the wind rune.
A breeze inexplicably blew into the space.
The wind stirred up the fire, and the waves of fire became even bigger.
However, Klein was clearly not satisfied with this bit of prestige. He activated the wind rune again, and the wind instantly turned violent.
The flames on the ground couldn't withstand it, and they were directly swept up by the wind.
In a short moment, they formed a fire tornado.
This wasn't a simple fire tornado. There were also countless grains of sand and stones inside.
The gravel made creaking sounds as it stirred in the tornado.
Klein had no doubt that once something was scratched, blood would definitely splatter everywhere. The outcome would be disastrous!
The fire tornado wreaked havoc in this space, as though it was destroying the world. It stirred up and down without any madness.
At that moment, the monkey's figure appeared once again.
It seemed to have sensed the power of the fire tornado and didn't dare to be careless. It quickly fled to the other side, attempting to turn invisible again.
But how could Klein let him escape so easily?
Therefore, he threw the Golden Firestorm Saber at him again.
The monkey hurriedly received the saber, and its body was sent flying beyond its control.
It crashed heavily into the hill, producing a dull rumbling sound.
"You... are... very... strong!"
The monkey got up with a rare solemn look on its face.
"You can actually speak?"
Klein was slightly taken aback as he asked again, "You are Raksha?"
However, the other party didn't respond to him. Instead, it stood on the mountain. Its body seemed to have been stimulated by something as it began to tremble crazily on the mountain.
Before long, the monkey's body seemed to be filled with blood, and its body was visibly full.
The teeth in its mouth also grew out, especially its two canine teeth. Each of them was as thick as an adult's arm, and they emitted a bright glow under the flames. It looked extremely cold!
As for its strong muscles, it instantly transformed the originally weak monkey into a gigantic ape.
It had finally completed its transformation, and its entire body seemed to have changed.
Other than the previous changes, there was also its fur. Each of its fur was clearly visible, and it emitted a bright glow. How was it any weaker than before?
It looked at Klein and pounded its chest with both hands, letting out a terrifying roar.
"It's not a monkey, it's an ape?"
Klein's expression changed slightly.
And at that moment, the fire tornado had finally arrived.
The fire tornado that had engulfed half of the catacomb had reached its peak.
Countless pieces of rubble stirred in the air, producing creaking sounds.
There were also countless flames that covered it, and many of the rocks were roasted until they were red.
Looking at the fire tornado in front of him, the ape wasn't afraid. Instead, it was filled with fighting spirit. It pounded its chest with both hands before suddenly plunging into the fire tornado.
The tall ape was like a baby in front of the huge fire tornado. It was instantly swallowed up.
However, a moment later, a huge tremor was heard.
Soon, the entire ground could not withstand this terrifying explosive strike and instantly collapsed countless times.
The fire tornado was also shaken by this huge force and obviously hesitated for a moment.
The ape inside seized this rare opportunity. Its hands were like electric fans, waving crazily in the fire tornado.
In just a few seconds, the fire tornado couldn't hold on any longer. It let out a rumbling sound in the air as it exploded crazily.
When the dust settled, the ape inside was revealed.
At this moment, the ape was in a very miserable state.
Its glossy fur was covered in countless tiny wounds, and blood was oozing out.
Its massive body was overturned by the blood, as though it was a blood ape.
The bloody ape didn't seem to have suffered too much of a blow as it pounded its chest again and charged at Klein.
Its massive body made it look like a land tank. As it ran, countless rocks exploded and mud flew everywhere. The scene was extremely terrifying!
However, Klein wasn't in a hurry. Close combat was what he was best at.
Therefore, he cast a wind rune on himself and instantly became light, easily dodging the blood ape's first attack.
His massive body was like a train that had lost control as he plunged into the hill, creating a huge hole.
The ape struggled to crawl out, shook its head, and shook off the dirt on its head. Then, it charged at Klein once again.
This time, it was careful. Its hands, which were the size of two adult palms, came towards Klein.
Its speed was even faster than before.
There were fewer places for Klein to hide.
Once he was caught, with the ape's strength, it would definitely be able to crush any place he was caught!
Klein was in danger!
