Beast Evolution

"So we are close to their dungeon"

"No...we are already in their dungeon," Selena said.

"I don't see a cave or anything, or is it underground?" Ray asked.

"You have been to a lot of dungeons right?" Selena asked him.

"Yes, but not much, I haven't seen all the beasts in this world"

"You can't see all the beasts in this world, there are some that even I haven't seen, we're starting now, transform," Selena told him.

"I don't think there is a need for me to transform, these are just low leveled golems, I can defeat them in my human form"

"I know, but I want you to transform so we'll find out if they would attack you"

"They are going to attack me, all the beasts I've met are the same, they all attacked me but I was the first one to attack some of them but still they attacked me"

"Transform," Selena said in a more serious tone.

Ray wanted to speak but her face became way too serious and Ray felt defeated, he sighed heavily and eventually transform into his beast form.

[Transformation]

"Good, now go over to them, don't use a weapon...wait you didn't even bring a weapon" Selena shook her head in disappointment.

"Don't worry about that, I have a weapon" Ray said and she continued.

"Try to be friendly and associate with them, if it's not going well or they attack you first then you can kill them"

"Okay," Ray said and walked towards the golem, Selena moved to the side so the golem wouldn't spot her.

The ground was sinking slightly and sucking up Ray's legs, it would be very hard to fight a battle in this condition, while the golem on the other hand could walk on top of the muddy ground without their feet sinking because they were stone golems.

As Ray walked towards the golem he hoped in his mind that the system would give him a task to do but the system wasn't interested in two low-leveled golems neither was he but Selena seems to be testing something.

"Shit... I'm stuck" Ray's right leg was stuck in the mud and he tried to drag it out then the golem noticed him.

Ray looked up and saw the two stone golem staring at him, their face showed no emotion as they looked at him so Ray couldn't tell what they were thinking.

But now he could as the golem rushed towards him, if they wanted to talk they would have walked slowly, and from Ray's experience, all beasts seems to have different languages.

The two golems were just a few inches away from him and his legs were still stuck, Ray had to help himself because if Selena wanted to interfere she would have done something.

Ray wanted to open his [Void] and remove his spear but before he could the golems week already In front of him, Ray didn't anticipate the level of their speed, if he did he would have reacted accordingly.

The first golem threw a punch and Ray raised both of his hands to block, as soon as the punch landed on Ray it felt like his arms would come off, it felt like a rock squashed both of his hands.

The first golem moved away as soon as he punched Ray, Ray's defense was lower because he couldn't keep his hands up again and the second golem punched him straight in his face and sent him flying.

Ray crashed into the muddy ground and his body was covered in mud, Ray couldn't believe what happened.

'This is just like a game...' Ray mumbled as he stood up.

In a video game when the player is at level 1, all the boss that the player faces won't be of high level, but when the game progress further the boss becomes stronger to match the player's strength.

Ray stood up and faced the golems, his legs weren't sinking like earlier and Ray knew why, the closer you get to their dungeon the more the mud increases.

-----------

And this is called the law of dungeons and muddy terrains. xD.

The golems were ready for round two and Ray was prepared, both of his blood spears were in his hands.

Ray felt a twinge in his lips, he used his thumb to touch his lips and discovered they were slightly chapped, the blow from earlier surprisingly powerful.

The golem didn't wait for Ray to come to them, instead they rushed toward him.

Ray scoffed and spoke in a loud voice, "This world isn't fair"

[Dark Binds]

Dark ropes sprouted from the ground and held both of the golems in place, this was the right time to test if he could control Ki and Mana at the same time.

When he was training with Selena he couldn't fight at full strength but now that he was fighting beasts and he was in his beast form without any restrictions he was confident.

*Swoosh*

Ray dashed towards both of the golems at full speed, blood rushing to his vein as he felt the thrill of fighting with full strength again, even when he fought against Draco he wasn't in his beast form so his speed was also reduced but now.

The golem was struggling to break free from the [Dark Binds] when something ran through its body, immediately the body of the first golem spilt into three parts.

Ray used both of his blood spears to ram the golem, he aimed at the neck and the waist of the golem shattering it into parts, the second golem couldn't react as Ray did the same.

Ray breathed heavily as he defeated both of the golems in a flash, he had a huge smile on his face as he turned to face Selena.

Selena walked toward him but then she stopped and pointed at the back of Ray.

Ray was surprised then he turned around and saw both of the golems he defeated being rearranged by the mud on the ground, the mud joined all parts of the golem back together and the golem eyes opened and they stood back on their feet.

"Huh!!" Ray was utterly shocked.

Beasts aren't supposed to heal except they are infected, but these golems were not infected and yet they were coupled together and now they are back on their feet.

"I knew it..." Selena said making Ray turn around.

"Don't turn your back on your opponents, it's bad" Selena said with a sly smile on her face.

Before Ray could turn around both of the golems were already upon him, he tried to jump back to avoid their attacks but the mud made him slip.

It felt like the golem knew he would fall to the ground as both of them attacked him immediately, Ray quickly joined both of his blood spears together to block their attacks.

Initially, Ray wanted to drill the spears into both of the golems but he knew only part of their body would fall off and they would still deliver their attack, so Instead of attacking he decided to block their attacks.

Ray use this blood spear to block both of their fists as they punched him simultaneously, Ray's hands vibrated furiously, the golem's attacks were nullified but they still didn't raise their hands.

Instead, they raised their second hand to finish Ray off, Ray was on the ground and Selena watched two stone creatures hell-bent on killing Ray but she didn't give him a helping hand.

Though Ray wasn't expecting her help, this was also a chance for him to get stronger and surpass his current limit.

As the golems raised their other hand, Ray shifted to the right and bent both of his spears to the left side.

The hands of the golems were still on the spear so they lost their balance as their hands slipped from the spear and both of them fell to the ground. Ray quickly stood up and used his spear to shatter their heads.

Ray's breathing was ragged as he finally finished both of the stone golems or so he thought.

The tiny pieces of the golems began to gather together again but this time Ray didn't allow that to happen, he waited till they were nearly finished then he smashed both of the golems again.

"Why do they keep regenerating" Ray shouted angrily.

"You still can't figure it out"

"Figure what out?" Ray asked with an eager voice.
