Chapter 147 Fight Shoulder By Shoulder


    Rocky, with Uriah by his side, was fighting vehemently against a huge wild beast. Coming from the


    other side of the wild ce were Marin and other spirit maniptors. They came with an intention of


    lending Rocky a hand with this certain battle.


    ''Shit! This is one thick-skinned beast. Even my treasured dagger could barely inflict damage. Such a


    beautiful dagger from the beautiful General Marcia. It could be one of those pesky armored spirit-


    manipted beasts, '' Rocky thought to himself. After fighting against the armored spirit-manipted


    beast several times, Rocky felt a little tired and stepped a few paces back to analyze the battlefield.


    With the Frozen Wind Dagger on one hand, he breathlessly formted a strategy. As he has doing


    this, Uriah diverted the armored spirit-manipted beast''s attention from its master. It was able to


    restrain the wild beast from attacking Rocky.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    This certain armored spirit-manipted beast was of the second grade of three-star level. Its


    capabilities were at par with a spirit maniptor on the fifth grade of the Earthly Stage. Its defensive


    capabilities were superior to its offense capabilities. Its iron armor made it difficult to inflict damage. The


    Frozen Wind Dagger was made of an ancient dragon bone. Even whenbined with spiritual power,


    it was still ineffective against the beast''s armor. Rocky knew for a fact that he was not strong enough to


    defeat this armored wild spirit-manipted beast. If he were on the fourth grade of the Earthly Stage,


    however, he could have gotten through its armor with the Frozen Wind Dagger.


    He could not defeat this beast in a face-to-facebat. He could only defeat it by using his wits and a


    strategy. He quickly analyzed the battlefield and tried not to miss any detail. Every creature had a


    weakness, and Rocky was sure of that. This includes humans, animals, and even these spirit-


    manipted beasts. It did not make sense for it to have a perfect anatomy. For humans, it was the


    spine. It was one of the most vital parts of the body, but it could be a weakness. Once one''s spine was


    damaged, they would have been rendered paralyzed. Being paralyzed meant one could no longer be of


    use, much like a fallen building that had turned into a heap of ruins. Once Rocky found this armored


    spirit-manipted beast''s Achilles'' heel, the fight would be decided. He could finish this battle in a snap


    of a finger.


    While Rocky was devising a n to victory, Uriah was taking care of this armored spirit-manipted


    beast. Uriah possessed a brilliant amount of strength. It was unable to damage the armored beast, but


    this beast also had a difficult time inflicting Uriah damage. Their skill levels were almost equal; neither


    could gain the upper hand.


    ''This beast''s armor protects it from head to toe. It''s possible that the armor is thinner on its underbelly


    around, its movements won''t be as bold. If only I could observe its underbelly closer, maybe I can


    identify its structure by using the Stroking Evaluation Skill. Maybe then I''d discover what this beast''s


    weakness is, '' Rocky thought, grateful for his vast stock knowledge of modern biology. It was


    dangerous for Rocky toe close to this armored spirit-manipted beast, even more so to observe


    its underbelly. He''d be crushed the moment he got discovered by the beast.


    "Uriah!" Rocky called upon his spirit-manipted beast. He had always enjoy taking risks. The instant


    Uriah heard his voice, they charged towards the armored spirit-manipted beast. It was as if they


    were on sync.


    Uriah roared and swiftly made its way to the armored wild spirit-manipted beast. Its sharp talons


    wed and scratched the wild beast''s face. Sparks flew every time Uriah''s w made contact with the


    armored spirit-manipted beast''s face.


    The armored spirit-manipted beast shrieked in pain and pped its wings to retreat. It tackled Uriah


    head on, like a mad bull in a bullfight. The impact was so intense that the dust under Uriah was


    cleared.


    Uriah fell a few steps back. The immense force from the collision almost made it fall.


    It was the perfect opportunity to put into action the Neb Cloud Transformation. Rocky rapidly made


    his way to the armored spirit-manipted beast''s left side and started making gestures. A spiritual aura


    in the shape of a neb cloud emerged from his chest. Soft light flickered as Rocky released his


    spiritual power. The soft light quickly turned bright as he performed the transformation. He released


    such immense power that the sand, stones, and trees around them turned rattled uncontrobly.


    Rocky''s spiritual power chased the beast. The power almost got it.


    The armored wild spirit-manipted beast reacted very quickly to Rocky''s spiritual power and was able


    to dodge such a powerful attack. It was indeed to a beast of high defensive skills. When Rocky''s


    neb cloud finally hit its target, a deafening boom erupted. The spiritual light grew blindingly bright.


    The dust rose, much like a haze. Nothing could be made out of the battlefield, but Rocky knew exactly


    where the armored beast was.


    Rocky sprinted towards the armored wild spirit-manipted beast. He leaned forward as he ran. His


    body got closer and closer to the ground, and when his body was almost parallel to the earth, he was


    directly below the beast''s underbelly.


    Rocky was already a master of the Stroking Evaluation Skill. He knew his time to beat the armored


    beast was very limited. He kept his bnce and ced his left hand directly on the beast''s belly. In an


    instant, he casted the Stroking Evaluation Skill and released his spiritual power onto the armored spirit-


    manipted beast''s underbelly. This signaled the beginning of the identification process.


    The armored wild spirit-manipted beast instantly knew something was wrong with its underbelly. It


    let out a loud scream and tried to move away. Rocky knew that if this beast were to break away, the


    identification process would be put into a halt and his entire n would be ruined.


    Uriah lunged on the back of the armored beast and started attacking it again. It struck and smacked the


    head of the armored spirit-manipted beast violently and repeatedly. The armored beast could not


    fight back and began to mindlessly throw its head around, in an attempt to get rid of Uriah from its


    back.


    Rocky was pleasantly surprised with what Uriah did. It was vital for their sess. Uriah was able to buy


    him enough time to finish the identification process.


    "Yes! I found it! I found the armored spirit-manipted beast''s weakness!" Rocky eximed. He


    smirked as he dug the Frozen Wind Dagger deep at the armored beast''s weak spot. Sparks flew as the


    Frozen Wind Dagger made contact with the armored wild spirit-manipted beast''s underbelly. Before


    he knew it, Rocky''s dagger had bored a hole through the belly of the beast.


    Rocky poured all his spiritual power into the Frozen Wind Dagger. His spiritual power gave the dagger


    a boost of potential. The hole that was on the beast''s underbelly expanded, and a cyan liquid which


    smelled like rotten fish started gushing out of it.


    The armored spirit-manipted beast screamed and howled in anguish. It grew even more furious,


    throwing Uriah tens of meters away as it threw a fit.


    The armored beast inevitably stood up and started swinging its body in all directions. The Frozen Wind


    Dagger was stuck so deeply that Rocky was not able to take it out of its belly. He recklessly threw


    himself off the beast as it rose.


    Rocky shrunk inparison to the armored spirit-manipted beast. It was like David and Goliath


    when it stood up.


    The armored spirit-manipted beast had gone berserk. Its temper worsened as it noticed Rocky


    falling off its body. It dropped its body in an attempt to crush Rocky.


    Rocky grew more and more horrified as its enormous body loomed on him. The weight of this armored


    spirit-manipted beast must at least be a few tons. If it were to drop on him, he''d most definitely be


    crushed t. He should run. He knew he should run. But he had spent the entirety of his spiritual power


    in stabbing the armored spirit-manipted beast. He simply did not have enough juice in him to run


    away. He was in grave danger.


    He was about to be trampled on the beast''s body when Uriah sensed its master was in danger. It was


    many meters away from its master. In a panicked craze, Uriah intertwined its two ming tails and


    produced a sole bigger me. It took aim and shot the fire ball directly at its target: the armored spirit-


    manipted beast that was about to squash its master.
