Cain dashed forward like a bullet. In response, the remaining creatures met him with a mad frenzy...
'Avoid engaging them physically...'
Although he had been warned by Evangeline, Cain still wanted to test his mettle against these huge creatures. Their bodies were filled with thick muscles, so he reasoned that their strength would be immaculate.
Circulating his Ki, he was about to strike his fist against the forerunner when his senses suddenly tingled.
It was the sort of tingle that indicated the moment before a calamity. Thinking fast, Cain twisted sideways and dodged. The creature's first slammed into the ground, producing a shockwave that lifted him off his feet.
"What?!"
Cain quickly took a moment to check the stats of the creatures...
