480 Race against time (part 3)

“Why are you guys staring, don’t let it get up!” Major Reeves said snapping the rest out of their reverie as they began raining spells on the black tortoise.

On the other side of the battlefield…

The battle between the major generals had gotten more than the attention of everyone and everything in the area.

The collisions of their spells not only destroyed the environment, but they also constantly affected the fights of those around them both positively and negatively.

[At this rate things would get ugly.] The system said as they watched the fight between the demigods and the black tortoise.

‘How do you mean?’ Blake couldn’t help but ask. ‘It is obvious that the only thing still keeping the black tortoise alive is the mana pillar.’

“Besides, during the beast tide, it took only 2 peak demigods to take down an emperor-tier beast, let alone 4 working together. So even if they are not able to take it down before its evolution is complete, they would do so after.” Blake explained.

[You are right about them being able to handle an emperor-level beast, but you are overlooking several things.] the system continued with its explanation.

.....

[The first is that the black tortoise is basically undying at the moment, and even after the evolution process, they wouldn’t have enough mana to kill it, especially at this rate.]

[Secondly, you have to remember that it is turning berserk, meaning it would be stronger than a newly evolved emperor beast, thus further reducing their chances of victory.]

[Finally, what I am most worried about is you guys, not them. If it eventually goes berserk, I am not sure they would be able to protect themselves and all of you at the same time.] The system said making Blake realize what was really happening.

‘What do you suggest I do cause from the looks of things I don’t think we have much time?’ Blake asked the system as he saw that some patches of the black shell had turned to chromastone.

For the evolution to start appearing on the outside it means it has progressed quite a lot even though its evolution would continue for about an hour or more.

The reason Blake felt they needed to rush was that as the evolution process went on, not only would the black tortoise get stronger, but it would unlock new physical and magical abilities and attributes; thus making the task more difficult.

[If you get involved, you wouldn’t be able to withstand the shockwaves from the clashing of spells. So the only thing you can do at the moment is send Ebony and Ivory to help them.] The system said.

‘Are you sure they would be useful to the fight?’ Blake couldn’t help but ask.

[From what I can see, Ebony and Ivory are exactly what they need to win this battle.] The system said.

The main reason the battle had gone on for so long was that the major generals were unable to get physical with the Black tortoise, and this was because of the mana pillar.

The mana pillar was a catalyst that increased the success of a beast’s evolution and also a form of protection given by nature.

The mana being absorbed by the beast during evolution was used to rapidly heal their body as it was being torn from the inside out, but in a case where nothing needs to be repaired; a human would end up exploding due to mana overload if they were to enter.

As for other beasts, thanks to their size and massive mana capacity, they would be able to enter but that also didn’t mean they could stay there all day.

So, if Ebony and Ivory were to join the battle, they would be able to get close and help the major generals to take the black tortoise out of the mana pillar.

‘Alright guys, you have to go help them.’ Blake said through their mind link causing the grey wolf to immediately turn in the direction of the mana pillar.

Awoo!

Releasing a howl, Ebony and Ivory dashed toward the black tortoise, and on reaching the peak king rank beast they separated.

Ebony jumped into the air and turned into a spinning flaming tornado and arrived directly above the fallen black tortoise and released a flame burst twice its size before spinning out of the mana pillar.

BOOM!

The explosion of the flames not only made sure that the black tortoise was grounded, but it also cracked its thick shell.

ROAR!

The black tortoise roared in pain as the floating rocks all around it combined and expanded into a massive earth dome that protected it.

“It’s trying to run into the ground.” Major Briggs announced to everyone.

Although the black tortoise was going through agonizing pain because of the evolution process and the humans, it was still no fool. With Ebony and Ivory joining the fray it knew that staying in the open was a greater form of suicide than what it was already doing.

Immediately the blue markings on Ivory’s body began glowing, instantly turning the area frigid before sending a trail of ice that went underneath the earth and froze the whole space.

“What the?!”

The major generals were flabbergasted by the power being displayed by the king rank wolves but didn’t waste time to shatter the earth dome and once again reveal the tortoise that was now in its shell.

Bringing out its head and legs would only grant it a quick exit from life. So, the black tortoise could only stay in its shell and hope for the best.

“We need to try and get it out of there!” Major Briggs said to Ebony who grunted at him causing Ivory to roar at her brother for being rude.

‘What the hell is going on here?’ Major Briggs was confused by their actions but couldn’t care much since they had gotten his message.
