Chapter 59: 59. Son of the sun (2) [Bonus chapter]
Dexter remembered talking to Leo about the technique a few days ago. He didn't know what to do now in thus situation.
...
"The pain is almost unbearable?" Leo asked him.
"Yes. I don't really know if it could kill me now that I'm a true vampire." Dexter said.
...
The sound of the wind blew past his ears as he increased the speed of the bike to get to the titan before it gets to the trucks.
He remembered another thing that Zain said vividly after he blocked Dexter from entering the dome.
– "Fire works on it!!"
He looked at the pincer which still saw the burn mark that Zain inflicted and he quickly made a plan.
"It'll work this way, it must. If it doesnt, plan B it is." Dexter mumbled as he got closer to the titan.
It growled as it looked down at the human on a bike and try to step on him but Dexter made a sharp turn, dodging the leg.
He then used lightning bolts to strike it, trying to put its focus on only him.
The titan had enough and turned to Dexter completely, roaring loudly before coming after him.
Dexter stopped driving and left the bike on the side of the road while conjuring up a spear made out of lightning. He put his full focus on the skill, chanelling as much energy as he could afford.
As the creature came closer than 50 metres he threw the spear towards its chest where he hit before. He then casted another skill on the spear before it left his grip.
'Force release.'
The spear went like a beam of light towards the crab, it was impossible for the crab to dodge at this rate.
The titan saw the spear and it has always been putting its pincer in front of its vulnerable spot.
It's reflexes kicked in and the slight movement of its pincer to protect its soft spot saved it.
*BRAA..!*
The sound of thunder echoed as the spear collided with the pincer of the titan and Dexter looked to the side to see the trucks already moving away now.
"No." He mumbled as he began stepping backwards quickly.
'No notifications! It's still alive?!' Dexter panicked and turned around, running towards the shadow of a nearby building and immediately he ran, a pincer came down, destroying the road and missing its target by a metre.
The creature screeched as it came out from the smoke cloud and charged towards Dexter.
Dexter focused on running and in a second, he was already on the shadow and he vanished after he stepped on it.
He appeared at a building which was more than two hundred metres away and he breathed hard as he was almost crushed.
[Spirit energy: 87/230 (regen. = 1 per minute)]
'There's no time to cultivate spirit energy.' Dexter thought as he brought up his plan B.
[Technique - Son of the sun]
[Description: This technique will allow the user to harness the golden sun flame and utilize it in various ways to release its ultimate power.]
[30% chance to learn due to your race. Do you wish to learn?]
[YES] | [NO]
Dexter looked forward and saw that the creature was about to turn around and he summoned the destroyer, his first weapon.
He imbued lightning into it and the sparks coiled around.
He threw it while adding his force release skill, making it cross a hundred metres in two seconds.
The titan noticed a blue light while it was turning around and it immediately raised it's pincer to block whatever was coming.
*CLANK!!*
A loud clanking sound resounded and the creature roared loudly as it removed the spear which only mildly pierced into its pincer.
Dexter felt sad as he just threw away more than fifteen extra stat points and also his first ever weapon.
But it served its purpose.
The titan now noticed him and began approaching fast while roaring from time to time.
Dexter breathed out and immediately pressed the [Yes] button to learn the technique.
Immediately, he then began to feel a searing pain coursing through his entire body, it was like he was being fried from the inside out. It was even worse than before.
"ARRGHHHH!!!"
He shouted loudly in pain, alerting fhe surrounding monsters and zombies.
However, when they looked at the incoming titan, they all ran away in fear
While Dexter was screaming a green mist began to appear around the titan and it stopped running and roared loudly. The force from the roar pushed away all the fog to reveal a little black haired girl with brown eyes, staring at the monster with an angry expression.
The titan let out a low growl as it raised a leg and stomped on the little girl. To its surprise, she turned into green gas and formed again beside it.
She then formed little poison spiked and began to shoot them at the creature.
The titan only blocked its eyes but one of the spikes managed to touch the open wound on its chest.
It shrieked loudly as the spike melted into corrosive liquid.
Dexter, hearing all the noises despite the pain, managed to move his head to see what was happening.
Then he saw Lily running towards him and the titan right behind her with an angry expression.
It spun its entire body using its tail to hit the little girl, causing her to fly into another building. She wasn't too high in level and had little spirit energy or strength, so she died almost immediately.
[Teachnique learning failed.]
Dexter looked in front of him and saw the notification and he looked ahead to see the titan rubbing its open wound while roaring in pain.
He then focused on the notification again and he really felt like giving up.
He had no skills that were powerful enough to defeat the titan. He had too little spirit energy to use shadow skills, he only had this technique to rely on as the guardian of Heaven's tower told him that it would be powerful.
He furrowed his brows as he beared the pain in his body and stood up with shaky legs. He tapped the [Yes] button to learn again and this time, without making him suffer, he saw a message that made him satisfied.
[You have successfully learned the technique, 'Son of the sun'.]
[Get ready for transition.]
