Just as Benjamin was about to say something to make the mages following him pay attention, suddenly, his expression changed and he looked forward.
The smash just now seemed to... disturb something in the mountain.
Soon, the roars coming from the front made other mages realize this. Through the perception of the water element, Benjamin could see some small monsters emerging from the forest in the distance. However, those monsters didn't seem to be coming for Benjamin and the others, but there was something more terrifying behind them, forcing them to flee in all directions and become embarrassed.
"Careful, prepare to fight!"
When Benjamin saw this, he couldn't help shouting loudly. After hearing this, the mages also put down their luggage one after another, held their breath and concentrated, and entered a fighting state.
Entering this mountain range, they had long been mentally prepared to be attacked by monsters, so they probably couldn't blame Benjamin for this attack... right
Soon, the vicious guy chasing behind the small monster also appeared in everyone's eyes.
It was a bear-shaped monster.
At first it was only the size of an ordinary brown bear, with nothing special about it except that its fur was pure white. The bear-shaped monster let out a roar that could shake the earth and rushed out of the forest. When it saw Benjamin and the others, it rushed over as if it had been stimulated by something.
Of course the mage immediately launched an attack. However, when the first fireball hit the white bear, not only was it not injured, but it also changed its appearance at that moment.
There was a dull sound like phlegm coming from his throat. Then, its body suddenly began to grow larger and taller, as if some magic had been cast. In the blink of an eye, the guy who was just an ordinary beast has now become as tall as two stories, with red eyes, like some kind of prehistoric beast that has never appeared in the world!
Oh My God…
The mages were all a little dumbfounded.
And this kind of creature
At that moment, the two-story giant bear stood up and roared. It stood in front of Benjamin like a huge mountain, dimming even the light projected from the sky.
Immediately afterwards, it raised its huge bear paw and slapped Benjamin hard!
"Teacher, be careful!"
Hundreds of mages quickly chanted spells and formed a dense and thick shield to block Benjamin.
However, the power of the giant bear's shot is beyond imagination. He quickly caught up with the house-sized bear paw and slapped it down. The elemental shield burst like a bubble, unable to stop the opponent at all. Benjamin was suffocated, so he could only take advantage of this opportunity, the water vapor accelerated, and he quickly retreated, trying to avoid the shot.
boom!
His paw hit the ground, leaving a huge paw print. The trees in the forest swayed, and the birds and beasts flew away. The mages could not help but sway back and forth, as if they had experienced an eight-magnitude earthquake.
As for Benjamin, he almost rolled on the ground before wiping away the wind from his palms and escaping, and stood up again tremblingly.
He looked at this unheard of giant bear with a look of astonishment.
Damn it... so powerful
However, before he could do anything, the giant bear let out another roar that was about to burst his eardrums. The palm failed, and it seemed a little dissatisfied. It hammered its chest like a gorilla, and immediately slapped Benjamin a second time!
... again
In a hurry, Benjamin could not prepare any powerful magic, so he had to continue to dodge backwards. But while dodging, his eyes fell on the crystal ball in his hand.
The crystal ball is still vibrating and glowing. He just started this thing and didn't cancel it because of the sudden attack of the giant bear.
In this case…
An idea flashed through Benjamin's mind.
In his haste, he couldn't perform any powerful attacks and could only run away. And the trouble in front of him, to a certain extent, can be regarded as caused by this crystal ball.
—Why doesn't he let the crystal ball solve this problem
So, while dodging the bear's paw, Benjamin took a deep breath, found an opportunity, and threw the extremely light crystal ball in his hand like a medicine ball.
Whoosh!
In front of the huge strange bear beast, the crystal ball was like an ant in the corner, inconspicuous. However, when it drew a smooth parabola in the air and quietly hit the giant bear's chest, everything changed.
I saw that a small hole suddenly appeared in the giant bear's chest, which was as thick as a mountain. The small hole was just the size of a human head and didn't look inconspicuous. However, the sunlight blocked by the giant bear's body happened to shine through the small hole and became a beam of light in the dark forest, falling on Benjamin's face.
"this… "
The mages were stunned.
In fact, not only the mage, but also the giant bear seemed to be a little unresponsive, standing still and motionless.
When the crystal ball flew over, it didn't even bother to dodge and let the crystal ball hit its body. Perhaps under its judgment, something so insignificant and without any magic power fluctuations really cannot bring any danger to it.
Then, the crystal ball lightly hit its chest, and then passed through its chest lightly.
There was no splash of blood or earth-shattering roar. Compared with the last time when the crystal ball was accidentally thrown out, the process this time was so light and easy, as if it was just a breeze blowing by, everything was harmonious and joyful, and the world was peaceful.
Regardless of the giant bear, Benjamin, other mages, or the monsters escaping in the forest, all creatures were as quiet as silence.
Until two seconds later.
After passing through the giant bear, the crystal ball landed not far behind it, making a loud thud. Later, the giant bear seemed to recover from the pause. It blinked its dazed little eyes, stretched out its paws, and touched the hole in its chest.
Then, there was an extremely cruel roar.
Roar!
The mages couldn't help but take a few steps back and covered their ears to avoid being shocked and bleeding. Benjamin even had to summon a layer of water film to wrap them up and weaken the sonic attack caused by the roar.
This voice... is too loud!
The giant bear's roar lasted about four or five seconds. Then, under the dull gazes of the mages, he clutched his chest and fell straight down.
The ground shook violently. After that, the noisy mountain forest finally returned to its original tranquility.
Benjamin couldn't help but take a deep breath.
After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward and observed the motionless giant bear lying on the ground. After a few seconds, he turned his head and spoke to the almost frozen mages, saying:
"It's okay, it's dead."
The mages were still frozen, unable to react to what they were seeing.
Benjamin touched his rapidly beating heart and understood this very well.
The giant bear that was so arrogant just now was easily killed by the crystal ball in the blink of an eye. This kind of scene of ants killing elephants is something that no one can easily digest. Only Benjamin, who threw the crystal ball with his own hands, was barely mentally prepared.
But... he was also a little scared.
Are you kidding me? When he threw the crystal ball out, he just wanted to buy himself some time, distance himself, and then use magic to slowly grind the giant bear to death. He even thought about his next tactical deployment and what tricks he would use to contain him...
Who knew, he would actually kill the giant bear in one fell swoop!
terrible.
What is this crystal ball
With palpitations, Benjamin controlled the water vapor again, walked around the giant bear's body, picked up the crystal ball that fell far away, and held it in his hands again.
The crystal ball is still intact.
But this time, Benjamin’s hands couldn’t help but tremble a little.
It's not that the crystal ball has regained its original weight and he can't hold it, it's just... When you hold a nuclear bomb in your hand, even though you know it won't explode,... can your hand really not shake at all?
