Omega Summoner

Chapter 976: The Selvaggians Rise II

The elephant beast man missed his attack as Kabrakan vanished from his location. Adrian continued with this to buy time as he needed to make sure that Kabrakan is not killed. His soulbounds are the ones getting the brunt end of the deal though as the summoned ones are already killed.

The fact that the elephant beast man could kill Dodu, Charon and Saena terrified Adrian to a great degree. Dodu should have been impervious to physical attacks, but he got turned into an inconsistent puddle of black goo. Charon got separated into numerous bones while Saena died from one tackle from the elephant beast man.

The elephant beast man is currently in rage mode which is why he attacks those in his way indiscriminately. He does target Kabrakan for some reason though and his defenses are also boosted to such a large degree that they can barely scratch him. Even Sirius or Kanlaon could not damage him greatly and only posed as a short hindrance.

”What is that guy made of?” Adrian thought as even his other friends joined in on the fight.

Whatever they threw towards the elephant beast man, he will just brush it off and focus on Kabrakan. Adrian could no longer maintain the Absolute Sovereignty skill as he lost all his mana already. He could not drink a potion as much as he wants or else, he would get mana poisoning.

He might be able to not get mana poisoning if he is lucky, but that status effect is not affected by invulnerabilities. Mana is linked to the soul of a person and if they are not a priest that carefully deals with the soul then they will not be able to cure mana poisoning.

Since nothing could stop the raging elephant beast man, the group only focused on making sure that Kabrakan is alive. Only a few minutes are left and all they need is to make sure that one thing happens. Kabrakan could see that his friends are already getting battered up just trying to protect him which slightly broke his heart.

He is usually the one that protects them, but his shields have yet to recover while the opponent is not someone they could easily defeat. He gathered more mana to make sure that the shield fragments would gather much faster. He did not bother conserving his mana as he just needed to protect his team members.

The elephant beast man on the other hand has already lost all reason. This is the feared berserk state of the elephant clan which made even the lion clan fear them. In fact, if two elephant clan members becomes berserk then not only the enemy team will be destroyed but also their allies as well. They are not necessarily the best when it comes to handling their rage.

Their inability to control their rage fully is what made them turn to attaining inner peace and enlightenment. You could say that they have no other choice but to become monks in order to not destroy everything in their wakes when they get slightly angered.

The one that mostly blocks the elephant beast man is Vayu, but he deflects the attacks using wind. He could feel that his usual strategy became more and more difficult to do as the elephant beast man seems to get sturdier the longer, he is in that state.

Soleil even used her special skill by growing Regulus, but the flame lion is just treated as a slight inconvenience. The heat of the lion elemental could not even scorch the skin of the elephant beast man. Even attacks from Levin Cloud could not pierce him as the elephant beast man is not aligned to the evil side.

Peridot is making good progress and is the only one where her attacks seem to be working. Her attacks are basically Legendary spells which is why it is affecting the enraged elephant beast man. Her attacks are effective, but she cannot keep doing it for long as she is now running out of precious gemstones.

The elephant beast man is about to reach Kabrakan, but Adrian used Quantum Dispersion to blow him away. With the respite that Adrian has created, Kabrakan has managed to gather all of his shield fragments back again. This time his shields have now evolved to the Mythical Tier, and it glowed in a different light than before.

The elephant beast man recovered from getting blown away immediately and performed a slam attack on Kabrakan. One would think that the shields would be cracked again but that did not happen as the shields even repelled the trunk of the elephant beast man. Even Kabrakan is surprised as this is the effect of his new Mythical Tier equipment.

His shields have been transformed into the Dual Mountain Aegis. It is currently still using the look of the current armor that Kabrakan possess but the appearance of a gorgon head could be seen decorating it. The shields now have two new abilities that are vastly different from the one it had before.

-----

The moment that the elephant beast man hit the two shields, a beam of light blasted out of them which petrified the enemy. The elephant beast man turned into a stone statue instantly and it bought them more time. After five seconds, the stone statue started to rumble as the elephant beast man returned to normal and started his rampage.

Another slam attack hit Kabrakan that passed through his defense this time and Aegis Blessing activated. He basically became unable to die for a duration of ten minutes, but his health only hovered between 1% to 5%. The group tried all things that they can to try and trap the elephant beast man, but he just brushes off almost anything.

In the end, they relied on Kabrakan to tank everything and Levin Cloud immediately healed him back to half health when the effect of Aegis Blessing wore off. Adrian then teleported him out of the attack as he might not survive despite blocking it properly.

”Is there no end to this? I am incredibly tired.” Peridot stated.

As soon as Peridot said that sentence, the elephant beast man emitted a loud roar as numerous mandalas suddenly appeared all over them. It seems that the elephant beast man wants to kill them in one fell swoop. They could definitely see them not being able to survive this attack as they could feel the power erupting from the body of the enemy.

”Need more time! Let us revert you back to a few minutes ago. Rewind!” Adrian stated as he activated the spell, he used against himself when he needs a skill to be released on cooldown.

He made sure to save this skill if he needed to use an ultimate attack but even his ultimate attacks will have no effect on the enemy. He also did not use Netheros True Form in fear that the enemy also has another form. Adrian threw the magic circle towards the elephant beast man, and he could be seen retracing his steps as his time turned back by a few minutes.

After Rewindʼs effect ended, the elephant beast man once again activated that powerful attack, but Adrian already has a smile on his face.

”Two seconds left. Chrono Lag!” Adrian casted with a confident smile.
