Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 346: Little Monsters

Val! Miles dashed towards where they headed. There, three of them were fighting against the donkey-like creature. The creature had no eyes. The bloody holes looked back at them eerily. Its body was two meters tall and packed with muscles. The death element was swimming around the monster, while there were purple strikes all over its black body. It looked like a discolored zebra. In one of the eye holes, there was a palm-sized creature. Only Miles could see it, though.

When Miles arrived, Val was on the ground. She looked passed out, but there weren't any injuries on her. Miles dashed to her side and checked her pulse. Everything seemed fine with her.

What happened? Miles asked as he looked at Alex and Maya.

When the creature shouted, Val screamed and fell. I dont know. Maya hastily replied. Seeing Alex nod, Miles was relieved.

Lets deal with this creature for now, Miles answered.

How about the invisible creature on your side? Alex asked.

I already killed it. The monster shouted because of it. He replied.

Are they connected? Maya asked. She was holding a staff made of lava. Ready to dash out anytime.

There is another similar creature in one of this monsters eyes. Miles pointed at the monster's left eye. My guess is, this creature can form two of those parasites to feed on dead bodies.

That explains it, Alex said as he sent out a lance made of lightning. The lance hit the monster but nothing happened. Miles saw when the lance was about the hit, the little creature let out a shockwave to defend the zebra.

The little creature is intangible, invisible, inaudible, Miles reported as he pulled an arrow. He nocked on the bow on his back and let it go. The little creature shouted once again, but the arrow took a curve again and flew straight to the zebra. It can send shockwaves to defend against the attacks and since you cant see them, to you, it seems like your attacks are of no use. But if you circumvent the shockwave you can attack the creatures real body.

Despite saying that, Miles failed to injure the creature. Unlike the dead torso, the zebra monster was alive and kicking. Well, it was kicking, Miles wasnt sure if it was alive. With one of its rear hooves, it knocked the arrow down.

How are we going to do that? We cant see the shockwave. Maya said in annoyance.

I will try to guide you. Follow my lead. Miles said and crouched on the ground. Alex and Maya also crouched near him while still looking at the monster. Create palm-size rocks all around the battlefield, but not with your energy. Create them from the ground so we can use them as well. I will dash at the front to force the little shit to use a shockwave so you can attack from behind, but be careful.

The duo nodded so Miles dashed with a claw in his hand. This was the first time he ever used the Pinnacle-Tier claw he looted from the humanoid monster. Because of its requirements, Miles could hardly charge attacks. But ever since he awakened lightning-elemental form, his energy was more robust and his energy regeneration was a lot faster.

When he was in front of the zebra, he threw a rock he grabbed earlier with his maximum force. He was 16 times stronger than the strongest man on Earth before the invasion. The rock he threw flew like a bullet and was in front of the creature in no time. To Miles's surprise, the creature didnt let out a shockwave but dodged the rock. It turned its back to Miles and shouted at Alex and Maya who were charging with their own attacks. The lightning lances and a rod of lava hit the invisible barrier and got destroyed. Maya and Alex were sent back flying.

If you want to give me an opening, be my guest, Miles smirked and charged the claw with all his energy. The claw produced water and the claws got even sharper.

Five Fingers Claw Death!

Five beams of water cut the air towards the monster and hit it on the bottom. Miles was about to cry in happiness, but in the next second, he was also sent back. He looked down and saw another little creature at the back of the zebra. It was in the hole at the bottom.

Disgusting! Miles spat on the ground as he raised his two feet. Spread out and attack from three sides. There are two of them.

Roger that, Alex shouted and all of a sudden vanished. In his place, the Starmap appeared. In the next second a beam of lightning born from the right side of the monster flew towards the creature.

The beam hit it on the torso and sent it flying. Using this opportunity, Miles and Maya dashed forward with their own attacks. The creature raised its head and the little one shouted, but it was too late. Mayas fire covered the zebras body while Miles's claw cut through the helpless body in two.

Blood and gore splashed into the air, as three of them fell back. Maya raised her hands and created a giant sphere of fire. She brought it down towards the body, but all of a sudden it got destroyed. Miles looked at the dead body of Zebra in horror, as he gulped heavily.

There are hundreds of them inside the body.
