BXBX NOVEL Chapter 318 The Alpha!
"Thanks dudes," William shouted, while not hesitating anymore and flashed into the middle of a group of dead monsters that he killed before.
In the middle of all this chaos, he took the chance and started to collect the cores he missed before. He didn\'t try to attack a single monster this time, leaving Sith and his team to deal with the rest of the tigers while he collected his loot.
And this time, William couldn\'t help but laugh from time to time, happy about his gain.
"One hundred silver cores… Hahahaha! That\'s how it should always be, hahahaha!"
He gained around the same number of cores he gained before when he fought with his team. Not to mention he gained those in much shorter time than before. When he finished collecting his loot, he shifted his eyes around. There were still a couple hundred monsters standing on their legs, fighting Sith and his team.
"I want more!" his eyes shone and flashed in bright light, getting a little greedy here.
The entire situation shifted as the tigers focused on Sith and his team, totally ignoring William for the time being.
William kept flashing to collect his cores, didn\'t attack even once, and that helped more in making the tigers forget about him for now. But that was going to change soon enough.
*Fwoosh!*
William wouldn\'t let such a big cake slip by his fingers. So instead of just watching on the side like before, he actively moved. He jumped towards a nearby group of tigers, while letting his knives move again.
He didn\'t need to select the ones which were preparing to attack and evade the already attacking ones. As the tigers focused over Sith\'s team, he could easily sneak in the middle of any group of tigers and start his killing spree without any issue.
And this time, he kept collecting all the cores after killing the monsters on the spot.
With him joining the battle once more, things started to break apart for the overwhelming number of tigers here.
Sith led his team in a very efficient way to handle the front of all these tigers. He and his team used a different method than William, showing how cooperated and well organised this team was.
Few handled defence, few handled offence, and the three water-based spirit masters kept spreading their water all over the place.
Just from the previous battle against William, the tigers missed hitting him. But that also helped in spreading the explosive fireballs all over the place.
Sith\'s team had to put down lots of the fire, creating enough space for them to step on and move around freely.
They weren\'t like William, didn\'t get such fast moving techniques that could save their lives all the time.
When William acted like a sent-out arrow, killing in the middle and rear of their ranks, Sith\'s team acted like the proper task force, the main damage outputer. And with the two working together, things started to roll fast in their favour.
Everything went quite well until a violent roar came all of sudden from William\'s side. A huge tiger flashed and appeared just a few metres away from him.
He just killed a group of monsters, collected their cores, and was about to flash away from here. But the moment he wanted to, that big tiger appeared, blocking his path forward.
"The alpha decided to select me from all others… What luck!" there were still a hundred or more of these tigers around. And they were struggling to keep up against the pincer attack done by William, Sith and the latter\'s team.
The alpha could have selected Sith or any member of his team to target first. But it seemed to place William on top of its hit list, planning to take him down first before dealing with others.
William knew this alpha was a gold grade monster. It might seem quite strong and deadly, as it was the sole tiger here which could use both fire and wind elements at the same time.
However, it wasn\'t enough to make William feel any pressure.
"Let\'s dance," William didn\'t hurry to jump, and first walked towards that tiger in slow steps. The alpha tiger was at least three metres in height, making William feel like he was standing in front of a small hill or something.
It looked quite ferocious, and that didn\'t stop William from getting closer from it.
*Roar!*
"Come on, stop roaring and making such useless noise and show me what you got," William watched this monster open its jaws and a bright red light appeared from there next.
He knew it was going to release the combined fire and wind attack, but yet William didn\'t consider jumping around.
Unlike the other tigers, this dude could perfectly merge the two elements inside its body. So it got just to release a fireball infused with both fire and wind elements, the deadliest and most violent fireballs any tiger here could release.
William knew how troublesome it was to try and escape this incoming attack. This tiger got something like what William got to control his flying knives.
As William could control his knives by his will and spirit power, that alpha tiger was also able to do the same with such an attack.
It was like a guided missile, totally controlled by the monster in front of him. And so, the best way to handle such an annoying attack was by directly facing it.
It was like walking on a thread to cross a deep abyss. If William failed to make the right move even once, if he failed to evade the incoming fire ball, he\'d end up getting hit fiercely and then more attacks would follow.
It all needed one single mistake, and everything would be gone.
