SCREECH!!!

The void creature did not appreciate the actions of Ross as the moment his attack subsided, it retaliated with a much fiercer attack.

This time, however, Ross was prepared as the moment his attack failed, he wasted no time mulling over what went wrong and directly evaded the attack.

"Not going down, huh?" Ross muttered and distanced himself from the creature the moment his feet touched the ground.

However, this was not the end. The void creature followed that with multiple attacks that Ross had to continuously evade with all his speed.

''This void creature is matched in speed and power with me!'' The realization pushed him to give his all, his bones and muscles straining under the pressure.

With greeted teeth and determination, he constantly moved around, not daring to take another attack. Taking any more blows would be his end as he did not believe he could recover fast enough to react to any follow-ups.

"Tch! If only I had Alex by my side!" Ross understood that his physical strength was not enough to match the void creature and with his injuries, it was only a matter of time before his stamina ran out.

With Alex''s physical strength and speed, it would have been very easy for him to keep up with this creature, and all he had to do was spam it until it fell.

Of course, his mana pool was severely low right now, but it would have been doable. Ross did not believe this creature could continually take physical and magical damage for long.

''I have to think of something, and fast!'' His mind spun rapidly as he considered his options. Making a run for the exit might not be the best idea.

Who knows how many of these monstrosities were roaming around on this floor of the labyrinth?! His only choice was to finish this creature and get some rest.

Suddenly, the creature pulled back from attacking and began to gather its energy for a beaming attack.

"Oh no..."

Ross had a little over a second to decide what to do. Use the last of his mana or take his chances and run? The answer was an easy one.

"My chances it is!" He exclaimed and ran for the exit.

The void creature noticed this and quickly turned in his direction as the beam was ready for destruction.

He released a sigh of resignation, shaking his head at his back luck. His thoughts would occasionally shift to Julia, Ross and Abigail and wondered how they were faring.

Naturally, he had faith in their abilities, what he was worried about the most was Julia and her antics.

Would she attack someone out of anger? Alex shook his head in denial, "Naa... she wouldn''t go that far, right?" He muttered and then thought what if someone provoked her?

"Yeah, I can see that being the case." He placed his hand on his chin and pondered on the issue. "Hopefully, she doesn''t take it too far."

Of course, he had no way of knowing something like that had already happened. Whether it would continue to happen or not was up to the people around.

As these thoughts shifted through his mind, the ground began to rumble, prompting Alex to get back on his feet.

He retrieved his spear at the ready, his expression taking a serious then as his gaze shifted from the three paths he faced.

While they were dead ends, void creatures could still come from them if they were teleported there as he was. He wasn''t going to be caught with his pants down.

Just as he had guessed, he heard the roars of incoming void creatures from the path directly facing him.

Alex furrowed his brows, he moved to the side of the path where he would be out of sight of the void creatures.

It also created an opportunity for him to take them by surprise before they did anything.

Suddenly, he saw three void creatures zoom out of the path at speeds he hadn''t encountered from any of the void creatures he had faced so far.

"..."

Alex was momentarily left speechless, but not so long before the void creatures turned around and saw him. Experience tales with empire

With his mana already channelled through his spear, he brandished it while taking a throwing form.

WHOOSH!

He finally unleashed it.
