Chapter 357: Unique Skill: Switch II
Grey hurriedly looked around, and the Darkness Elementalist amongst the triplet caught his eye, without wasting time, he took a step forward and disappeared. In his position stood the Darkness Elementalist who was defending against an attack.
The Darkness Elementalist was shocked when he realized that the magical beast before him was gone, just as he was about to process what was going on, the claws of the Leopard that was coated with lightning struck his back, ripping off some of the flesh on his back.
Bang!
The strike sent him flying, landing in the midst of some of the magical beasts at the bottom of the hill.
Grey, who was standing in the position where the Darkness Elementalist was, was helped by the blue vest which activated its defensive properties when Grey was unable to defend the attack. The attack sent him flying.
Bam!
He slammed into the body of another magical beast, pushing the beast backward.
The body of the beast was the perfect cushion for him, helping him get his balance.
After standing properly, he looked in the direction of the Leopard and was surprised when he couldn’t find the Darkness Elementalist.
The Leopard stared at him with its angry eyes, scaring him a little. He quickly wrapped the lightning tree with a cloth, before keeping it in his loose shirt. Of course, that was just to deceive others, he truly kept it in his storage ring.
‘This technique is beyond heavenly!’ Grey thought in excitement.
The technique he used to switch places with the young man, as well as the Darkness Elementalist was a technique that was part of the Great Void technique. After gaining a bit of mastery, he realized he couldn’t just move to a designated area, but he could also switch places with anything that was there.
This was a skill that would be greatly beneficial to him, only the consumption is higher when switching places. As things stand, he could use it five more times, and after that, he would be exhausted, even fighting with his other elements would be difficult by then.
The Leopard charged towards him, making him turn around, fleeing. This was a unique skill he had honed in the trial land, and he was very confident in his fleeing abilities.
On the cliff.
Roar!
The roar of the Leopard caught the attention of all the people who were still trying to climb to the top of the hill.
“What’s that?” The Lightning Elementalist amongst the triplet asked.
“Someone must have gotten the lightning tree,” The leader of the expedition said, he was already close to the hilltop.
“It must be brother,” The Fire Elementalist said confidently.
“I can’t say for sure, he isn’t the only one who has gotten to the top of the hill. The kid who came with us is there as well, then I recalled seeing a red flash, if my guess is correct, then it’s a human as well.” The leader of the expedition said.
“Hmph! That brat is lucky to be alive till now, if he dares to steal the lightning tree from brother, then death surely is…” The Fire Elementalist paused, looking at the figure that was flying towards the bottom of the hill.
“Brother!” The Fire and Lightning Elementalist exclaimed simultaneously, darting straight to the bottom of the hill where the Darkness Elementalist crashed.
Going down from a hill wish was just around one hundred meters high was a breeze for the duo, a single jump was all they needed.
After getting to the ground, they were shocked by the sorry state of their brother. His back was bleeding profusely, and blood was running from the side of his mouth.
They didn’t have time to ponder about what happened, they focused on fighting off the beasts that were running towards their brother.
The Darkness Elementalist tried to stand up, but he was unable to.
The Fire and Lightning Elementalist were still fighting against the beasts when they heard an annoying voice.
“So that’s where you were, and I was searching for you all over,” Grey said while charging towards the triplet, with the Leopard in tow.
He planned on using the strength of the Leopard to deal with the triplet. He initially thought the Darkness Elementalist escaped, but he never thought he was actually thrown off the hill by the Leopard with a single strike.
“You little piece of shit! What do you mean by that?” The Fire Elementalist immediately scolded when he saw Grey.
But his expression changed when he noticed what Grey was bringing towards them. He could see a wicked grin in Grey’s expression, so it wasn’t hard to guess he must have had a hand in what happened to their brother.
While Grey was running towards them, the Lightning Elementalist hastily picked up his brother.
“Retreat,” He said to the Fire Elementalist.
“Count yourself lucky, brat!” The Fire Elementalist said before turning around.
They knew they were no match for the Leopard that was chasing after Grey. If their brother was fine, then they had a chance, but with him being injured, they couldn’t take the risk.
Grey grinned wildly, and with a step he vanished, appearing in front of the Fire Elementalist, where the Lightning and Darkness Elementalist were previously standing.
Bang!
He punched the face of the Fire Elementalist, sending him flying.
The Lightning Elementalist who was trying to escape was shocked to see his brother in front of him. He recalled the Fire Elementalist was previously behind him.
His pupils dilated when he saw his brother being sent flying by the kid who was behind them.
Grey directed the punch he threw at the Fire Elementalist so well, making sure he was sent flying in the direction of the Lightning Elementalist.
Now the Lightning Elementalist was caught in a dilemma, either he tries to save his brother or moves to the side to save himself.
Saving the Fire Elementalist means putting both him, the Darkness Elementalist, and the Fire Elementalist in the range of attack of the Leopard. But saving himself means he would be able to protect his life, as well as the Darkness Elementalist’s life, at the cost of the Fire Elementalist.
