Chapter 1009: Zon's Last strike
The strange energy being shot out from the large beast was not only damaging them in some way when being used, but it also appeared to be healing its own body, or doing something of that nature.
The vines that came off from the beast's body had reconnected themselves, twisting from the ends and growing at a fast pace, and all the work that both Zon and Lince had done, and gone through felt useless to them.
Watching all of this were Beatrix and Ricar. Luckily, the two of them only needed to deal with one energy blast, but they had stayed together just in case. In case the blast was pure energy, they were afraid that the two of them would be needed to stop the attack.
However, while running away, Ricar had been keeping an eye on the others. Seeing the results of what had occurred, he had hid behind a tree. He was the test subject in this situation. When the energy beam had hit the large tree he was hidden behind, he could see that it had done no damage whatsoever.
The beam continued to hit the tree doing nothing to it. It didn't blast it away, but only made some part of the tree darker with green growing on the very edge. Seeing this, Beatrix had done the same, moving to a tree next to Ricar, to make sure that the concentrated blasts were coming their way.
They had stayed quite a distance away from where the other two were, and the least they could do if they weren't attacking the beast was making sure that at least one of the heads wasn't too busy.
"What are we going to do!" Beatrix shouted.
The moment she did, the beam of energy blasted from Ricar and had moved to where she was. She somewhat flinched for a moment, but the energy did the same thing, not doing anything to harm them.
It was strange because she could still see parts of the energy going by her side and hitting the ground. A part of her wanted to reach out and touch the attack since it had done nothing to the surrounding area, it certainly was a strange phenomenon.
Ricar took a peek from his tree, and at this time he could see the vines being healed right after Lince had been freed.

"I stayed back because of those vines in the first place," Ricar stated. "They're too fast and strong and we haven't even gotten close to the body of the beast. Although it might not be strong in its physical state, we can't be so sure with a creature so large in size."
"So you want us to just wait, and continue to let the others fight. Is that really what we should be doing as members of the Light Faction?" Beatrix asked. "As a warrior, as an elder of the Dawnblade Clan, is that what you really think we should be doing?"
"We have to admit in this situation that we are not the same as them," Ricar replied back. "We can only wait and see in this situation at the moment."
The vines immediately after regenerating were starting to attack the two. With Lince and Zon back to back, they had a much easier time avoiding the vines. Using his two red blades, Zon was able to input more energy into them, extending the red blades in length.
As he did this, he swung them in a circle motion, cutting several of the vines too close but even those from behind. While this was happening, Lince had stopped any from coming to him just like those that had got to him, but regardless of how well they acted, there was one thing that they couldn't avoid, and that was the two energy blasts that were coming their way. 'If only I was able to use the new item I had received, it would make things several times easier,' Zon thought. He still hadn't really had much use of the item, and it felt useless with him, so he could only do one thing for now.
"I need you to distract the two energy blasts for a while. I need it off my back."
"I can do that," Lince replied. "I can try to, but what about the vines then?" Lince asked. Immediately, Zon disregarded the red energy swords in his hands and started to blast several lasers out of them. They hit the vines at several points and burnt several parts. A large number of the vines were no longer in commission, and the energy blasts started to move from the two of them, and started to move towards the vines to repair them just like before.
Zon moved, and Lince rushed ahead towards the energy blasts. Right after the energy blasts had recovered the vines, they both started to come from Lince as Zon was practically no longer in view.
'I hope he has a good plan to deal with this thing, because I don't,' Lince thought.
Zon had analyzed what he could using his system, moving in a way that would allow him to avoid the eyes of the beast as much as possible. He knew it would be a hard task with the beast having three heads and several eyes.
It was most likely that the beast would have peripheral vision to see from its side, but it was the only thing he could do. Eventually running from the side, Zon started to place both of his hands together.
The red lines on his black suit all started to light up and the energy was shifting to the palm of his hands. The laser, rather than coming out from the palm of his hand like it would do, a large handle was being made coming towards the back of his palm.
Right after that, the energy blade started to thicken and come out, turning into what looked like a giant greatsword being held in his hands. The red energy swords weren't thin like the ones he would usually use.
Zon looked up at the beast as he started to move in a zigzag pattern towards the beast. 'This is not big enough to take down a beast of this size. But if we were to take out such a large beast, especially one that has this kind of power, then using its crystal maybe I would be able to grow stronger than before, and even stronger than him!' Zon thought.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
With this in his head, the sword was growing larger in size. It was growing longer and the end of the blade was growing even thicker, till the sword was nearly five meters in height.
The red from the black of his suit was starting to fade and as it did, the black part of his suit around his arms started to disappear as well. Instead, it was forming by the handle of the red blade. It encased around it, making a solid firm handle for Zon to hold.
"Alright, I'm ready!" Zon thought to himself as he rushed out and started to run towards the body of the beast, the large energy sword being dragged through the ground by his side. It cut the grass and ground freely as he continued to run.
When running forward, Zon knew what to aim for.
'With this attack I might not be able to take out three of the heads in one go, but I'll at least take out one of them!'
While rushing forward, Zon was focused as much as possible on the head. With his legs, he could jump up to the head height in one go. He moved closer and close and was ready until a wall of vines raised in front of him.
There were like smaller versions of the large beast itself, or twisting at the top looking toward
Zon.
'I can't swing my arms right now! If I do, they'll get me, the beast will notice me as well. I thought the vines would take longer to heal than this!' Zon thought.
From the corner of his eye, he could see Lince was already dealing with two of the blasts. He was doing the job as tasked but despite him being close, none of the vines were going after
him.
'I have no choice, I have to just swing the sword and hope I still have enough energy for another attack!' Zon thought.
He tensed his hands around the grip of his weapon until he saw one individual right in front of him. Her sword was glowing white, and she swung it in a crescent shape, cutting the heads of
all the vines in front of Zon.
"Get that thing!" Beatrix shouted.
Zon didn't expect this, nor was it variable he thought about with his system, but it was a welcome one. His feet closed off the floor, and he was equal height to the beast in front of
him.
Then with the strength of the nano machine in his body, he swung it from his side, swinging at the beast's head. Immediately after the beast's head moved, the blast from its mouth had stopped as it snapped, opening its mouth and biting right onto the energy blade.
At that moment, Zon could feel its strength. He could feel that there was nothing he could do. The strength of the beast was enough to stop its attack completely, and it had done it with ease. Zon felt at the mercy of the beast.
With a snap of its head, it could fling it to the ground, but instead one of the heads turned to
face him, and the yellow energy beam was gathering in its mouth.
'I can't...die here,' were the thoughts running through Zon's head.
As the energy blast grew larger and larger, it was ready to burst out from its mouth. Out from
the top of the beast's head, a large force enclosed on the top, snapping the head closed, stopping the energy blasts.
Immediately, the powerful force had forced the head of the beast down until it crashed into
the ground.
Zon had been saved, and all he could see was a white-haired figure falling down to the ground where the beast's head was.
