Chapter 125
Lyra and Tom stood side by side, staring at the beast with anger burning in their eyes, weapons clutched tightly as they waited for the right moment. The creature regenerated rapidly before their eyes, new limbs sprouting out one after the other until it stood with a total of eight.
Since they already knew how many limbs the beast could manifest, they were well aware this number wasn't its limit. They braced themselves, but the beast didn't give them any breathing room as the limbs immediately shot forward with astonishing speed.
Tom wasn't one to wait around. Flames swirled around his feet and like a blazing meteor he exploded forward with neck-breaking speed, weaving through the flurry of limbs.
They sliced the air just inches past his body, yet he moved with precision, letting them pass as though they were harmless shadows.
