The struggle for conquest and survival [5]

Alex jumped to the side while the needles of darkness leave his shadow in the direction of the bull, but when they were about to penetrate the bull on impact, an invisible layer surrounded the bull which prevented it from suffering damage and could continue moving forward.

<A magical ability??> Alex was curious about the invisible cloak that protected the bull since he could feel it is made of mana.

<Possibly a normal attack but now implemented with mana> Alex thought as he watched the bull move a great distance without being able to change direction.

The bull swept everything in its path as it made its onslaught.

*Digging* The bull began to dig with its hoof on the ground when it stopped, which caused the earth to rise from the ground.

<I can also do the same... what is special about it?> Alex repeated the same action as the bull while he inclined his head curiously.

This only nourishes the wrath of the bull, since it perceives it as a challenge and an offense, angry, It controls its mana with its tails to create two stone golems while also making thorns out of the ground made of stone.

The thorns were reinforced by the nature of the stone element, which made them sharper and harder, but Alex dodged the attack easily when moving from one place to another while thinking about how to kill the bull with the rest of the mana that remains.

Alex decided to create a curtain of fire in front of him so he could go into stealth by not being observed by his target, he moved with agility between the ground while surrounding the bull and avoids the golems that began to move through the terrain.

The golems moved across the ground while destroying the places where the bull thinks Alex can hide, but while the bull was distracted in search of Alex, two shadows surrounded the golems and held them still until they were shattered by a black shadow.

*Prack!*

"!!!" The bull turned to see his golems when it heard the sound where the stone broke when it turned, it found its two golems divided into several pieces, they were no longer golems, they were only pieces of stone that are on a battlefield.

While the bull looked at its destroyed golems, Alex appeared at the side of the bull with his claws extended.

"MMM!" Taken by surprise, the bull tried to attack Alex with its horns, but the bull was slower than Alex and received two cuts in the face, which caused it to lose visibility in one of its eyes when it was scratched, while its horns only managed to scratch Alex's fur superficially, who with flexible movements avoided the bull's horns.

But it was not all that Alex did, as while attacking it in the face, he controlled his shadow to stab it in the heart, but the thick skin of the bull prevented his needle of darkness from entering deeper into its body.

When the bull lost sight of one of his eyes and felt the attack on its heart, its anger limit was broken, its body began to grow a little more while it turned a red color, the mana was uncontrolled around it, as If it had its own gravitational field, the stones rose from the ground and began to revolve around the bull at high speed and sometimes shot at random directions.

*Fiuuum!!* A stone touch Alex's ear and continued to advance until it hit a tree.

<It burns ...> Alex felt a burning in his ear that is missing a small piece of skin, but with the help of the little spirit, Alex began to recover.

*Plack!* The tree split in the middle of where the stone hit.

Meanwhile, the bull began charging towards Alex with the intention of ramming him and destroying him with its storm of stones.

Alex understood the danger and decided to keep his distance from the bull while avoiding the stones that shot towards his direction.

Angry at not reaching Alex, the bull began throwing a shower of stones the size of a baseball.

Alex began to bother about how difficult it is to deal with the bull, already artful, Alex decided to use his personalized magic "[Fireball]" on the bull to end it at once.

A small sphere of red and yellow mana began to form in front of Alex, as dense as the mana took the color of its element while also a great temperature he exudes, which caused the ground to begin to turn red from the heat.

Blinded by anger and unable to see well, the bull took the opportunity to attempt to attack Alex who had stood still by concentrating on his magic which needs all his concentration to not self-destruct himself.

Alex kept his posture rigid until he felt he could no longer maintain control over his mana so he completed his magic, while the bull was already a few meters near him.

<Bear this!!!> Alex opened his mouth when he released his magic, a beam of light shot out like a laser from the small sphere in front of Alex while also a thunderous sound filled the place by the explosion caused when it hit the bull and the land.

[+350 Familiarity with the Fire element]

[You got + 850Exp]

[You've got +13 Mp]

[You got +1 Sp]

Alex managed to stay in his position thanks to his shadow with which he protected himself from recoil from the explosion.

<Hehe... yeah, I am crazy... but I won and survived> It was what Alex thought to feel very tired by his little remaining mana and to see the new terrain.

Where there was supposed to be a bull and a forest in the background, they are gone, there is no sign of the bull and the forest is destroyed with the trees torn from the ground by the shock wave and burned by it, while there is also a large circular crater where Alex's attack with the melted or red-hot ground of how hot it is.

<I think the bull doesn't leave loot... hehe~> Alex sat on the floor while concentrating on gathering mana from the environment that is impregnated with the mana of the fire element.

The majority is his mana that was combined with the environment while the others are neutral mana that became fire mana for the surroundings with a great inclination to fire, shortly after several small fire mana spirits began to fill the place.

<It was a monstrous combat... and there are still more fighting in other places as far as I can hear and feel> It was what he thought while looking like in other places in the forest, the trees are lying down or one or another attack comes out into the air like thunder, rocks, flames, water jet, all kinds of elements.

<I guess I will have to look for more tomorrow or wait for them to come for me, since I am very physically and mentally tired, apart from the fact that the artificial sun is about to hide> Alex looked towards the false sky where he can see an orange mini-sun about to disappear on the horizon.

But while Alex suffers his own problems within his world, which is the dungeon, out of it with the team of magicians and knights who finally managed to clean the surface of the monsters overload and defend the nearby villages of the same monsters, now they find another wall that prevents their progress.

Literally a wall blocks the passage on the stairs, the thing is that they can't break it by being made of the same material as the walls of the dungeon which makes them unbreakable, although it is a wall, scholarly magicians assume it is a door and entrance to the pocket dimension of the dungeon.

"The dungeons exist within pocket dimensions in two layers, the entry-exit and the part that joins the mana veins of the world, it is known that they are within dimensions separate from ours because if they really were in our own dimension, there would be no space for more than 1000 dungeons, if we talk about those are huge according to the records, possibly the Anclatus dungeon could cover our entire planet with only its first ten floors- "A knight interrupted the-dungeon-fan-magician who was explaining to other magicians below him in rank about the dungeons.

"Why we need to know that? if what we want is to know how to go through this wall-door" said a man of the cavalry while adjusting his heavy armor that is light as a feather for him.

"That was to be explained before you interrupted me, sir [iron golem], now let me continue where I stayed...

The dungeons are the ones that allow mana to be made on the surface of the planet thanks to its entry-exit and if they block the escape of the mana it would be more harmful than beneficial, the mana we use would be its residue, it is as if we were the plants and they the living beings.

The dungeon would suffocate from mana if it is enclosed with the entire mana that 'breathes' and this dungeon placed a block which possibly serves as a blockage of the escape of the mana and only lets go of the mana that no longer occupies, so we can be well without feeling sick even on the side of the dungeon since there is no asthma leak or unrefined mana, but apparently the entry-exit was blocked by some ancient civilization, the good thing is that you have me, the great Gorgie BonRulek, a great student of the dungeons and ancient language or dead languages ​​"Gorgie pulled out his chest while trying to show his greatness and the badge on his cape showing that he is not lying about his knowledge.
