Man-eating monsters (2)
Yet, the knight's quick thinking prevented the worst. The clash was loud, with the sound of steel hitting bone reverberating across the woodland as the shield protected the young men.
Taren's commander delivered a powerful strike to the fanged's flank, prompting it to growl in pain and redirect its attention to the experienced and stronger soldier.
Taren seized the opportunity and retreated. He recovered his bow from the ground and started pelting the monster with arrows.
"It's a tier-2!" Taren didn't know who said that, but the shout was heard by everyone.
The thing thrashed and swung its claws at anyone close, pushing Taren to dodge and weave. He was trying to gain distance, but couldn't.
The creature seemed stuck on chasing the young archer, as if he was a juicy worm, or a vase full of honey.
"This thing covered 50 meters in less than a second!" That was how fast the tier 2 fanged was.
