Ryder had not expected the monster to still be capable of something so terrifying.
Ryder had practically exhausted his spirit energy by then and he had no way of fighting back.
Yet he did not give up. He let out a howl as he exploded with the last of his spirit energy. The dagger roared into burning flames once again as Ryder lunged at the monster.
Ryder did not give up even at the last second. The idea of running away did not even cross his mind. He used the last of his strength in a fight to the death, not backing away in the slightest.
Elsa was so terrified she had let out a scream. Even she could tell that Ryder was walking right into a death trap, and there was no way he was a match for the monster.
Wilbur let out a sigh. He opened and closed his palms, which exploded with spirit pressure as he shouted, "Lethal Earth!"
He did not stop after that, gesturing with his palms again and shouting, "Quad Thunder!"
Wilbur seemed to complete everything in a matter of seconds. At the same time, an earthen giant around five meters tall rose from the ground between Ryder and the monster.
The earthen giant glimmered with a golden glow as the monster's cleaver struck it head-on.
With a loud rumble, the earthen giant crumbled into pieces, falling onto the ground. It had completely deflected the monster's attack.
Behind the giant, Ryder was completely unharmed as well due to the giant's deflection.
Just as Ryder was in a daze, four basketball-sized balls of thunder appeared above the monster. They crackled and fizzled with chains of lightning between them, trapping the monster for good.
The monster let out a howl of agony from the restriction of the lightning chains, struggling with all its might.
Yet, the Quad Thunder spell was clearly much more powerful than the monster, and it had no hopes of breaking free.
Ryder stared at Wilbur in shock and disbelief.
Elsa was even more at a loss for words. She stared at the Quad Thunder's brilliant and terrifying power, unable to believe her eyes.
Wilbur put his palms together in front of his chest. An explosive spirit pressure burst out from him as he stared at the monster coldly while maintaining the Quad Thunder's power.
Elsa had run over as well, but she was looking intently at Wilbur as if he was the monster from just now.
Wilbur crouched down and pointed at a tattoo on the corpse. "Does anyone recognize this tattoo?"
Elsa's gaze finally returned to the man, but she shook her head.
Ryder's face was pale. He furrowed his brows, then shook his head as well.
Wilbur said, "It looks like a skull."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Elsa asked.
Wilbur stood back up, lighting a cigarette before saying, "Based on the guy's powers, I think he might be a member of some cult."
"What makes you think so?" asked Elsa again.
