Chapter 808: The Weakness of the Monsters

Jiang Shaoxu had short legs and no movement spells. The Psychic Magician would surely be left behind when the team was running.
Zu Jiming was beside her, and totally lacked the demeanor of a gentleman. He was running away with Earth Wave, yet he did not even bother helping Jiang Shaoxu with the same spell. Soon, Jiang Shaoxu was left behind on her own.
“Assholes, you bunch of assholes! Come back here and save me!” cursed Jiang Shaoxu, running for her life.
She quickly summoned her Magic Boots, yet the magic equipment could barely outrun a Warrior-level creature. It was nowhere enough to help her run away from the Commander-level Blue Valley Ferocious Beasts.
A giant shadow loomed over Jiang Shaoxu. She could already smell the briny stench of the creature behind her.
“Jiang Shaoxu, behind you!” yelled Nanyu.
“Only one of them is following us?” asked Ai Jiangtu.
“Yeah, just one.”
“Prepare for battle!” Ai Jiangtu was quite the reckless type, too. He stopped running when he realized only one Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was chasing after them.
Ai Jiangtu turned around. A silver Star Constellation had already appeared under his feet.
His speed at channeling Advanced Spells was a lot more fluent and faster than a dabbler like Mo Fan. Ai Jiangtu vanished as soon as he finished constructing the Star Constellation.
The next moment, Ai Jiangtu was at the back of the team, right beside Jiang Shaoxu.
Jiang Shaoxu was hugging her boobs, which were bouncing wildly as she was running. She was surprised when she saw a man appearing beside her out of nowhere…
The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast did not swing its spiked arms. It lifted one of its pointy legs with a hint of disdain, before slashing it down like a sharp knife, trying to nail Jiang Shaoxu with its leg!

“Telekinesis!” Ai Jiangtu lifted his ferocious gaze and fearlessly stared at the creature’s leg, which was powerful enough to penetrate the concrete.
His stare applied a great resistance to the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast’s leg. The limb halted halfway in the air, as if the creature was having trouble pushing it down any further.
“Does the captain have to be so reckless!?”
The team turned around and saw Ai Jiangtu standing before the creature. His relatively minuscule figure was firm and imperious, as if he was having a showdown with the Commander-level creature!
Jiang Shaoxu knew she was not ideal to fight in close-quarters combat. She immediately ran to the middle of the team without hesitation.
The others immediately switched into battle mode when they saw their captain engaging, especially when they remembered that Ai Jiangtu was the one allocating the resources among the team members. They quickly turned around and fought the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast.
The brilliance of a dozen Star Patterns combined as spells of different Elements poured down on the creature, including burning pillars, ice chains, lightning strikes, tornado gusts, and demon vines…
Teamwork was incredibly important when a team was fighting a demon creature. By combining spells of different Elements on the same target, the effects were outstanding. Most demon creatures would find their heads spinning when being blasted by spells from all directions!
That being said, it was not easy to inflict damage on the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast. Even though all the spells had landed on the creature, they merely knocked it back without dealing much damage. The spells mostly left some dents on the creature’s scales and armor.
“Whoever has the Poison Element, use it to corrode that annoying armor of the creature first, or else we won’t deal any damage to the creature even if we expend all our energy!” yelled Li Kaifeng when he noticed that their spells only had minimal effects.

Zu Jiming was the Poison Magician on the team. He was standing at the back of the team. He opened his hand, revealing the Poison Cavity on his palm. Tiny poisonous wasps flew out of the Poison Cavity like smoke.
The movement of the poisonous wasps was rather slow. They finally reached the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast, but the creature was extremely alert. It opened its mouth and roared.
The roar produced a strong and humid gust with a high level of humidity. It immediately shattered the dark cloud of poisonous wasps.
“That thing is quite intelligent; it’s very experienced with fights against Magicians,” noted Zu Jiming.
Most creatures would simply ignore the tiny wasps, allowing the Poison Element to take down its target by surprise. To their surprise, the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast did not bother dodging the Intermediate Spells, yet it immediately shattered the swarm of poisonous wasps when it came close. It was obvious that someone had used the same trick on the creature before, so it realized that the Poison Element was able to penetrate its sturdy scales!
“It’s charging toward us, back off!”
Ai Jiangtu had reached his limit. He quickly blinked away when he saw the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast lunging once again.
Ai Jiangtu blinked to the roof of a building that was around twenty meters high. He was able to get a clear view of Blue Valley Ferocious Beast from this angle…
He did not notice it at first, but on second thought, he realized that the Commander-level creature was fully covered in thick armor, except for its head, which was fully exposed!
A weak point!
Ai Jiangtu was overwhelmed with joy. He did not expect to discover the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast’s weakness when he moved to a higher spot…
“Its head is not covered by scales!” Ai Jiangtu immediately relayed the information to the rest of the team.
The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was smashing its way forward. The others immediately escaped to the narrow alleyways nearby. The layout of the buildings in the East Maritime Fortress looked simple on the surface, but actually favored the Magicians. The huge buildings and the alleyways between them prevented the creatures from easily pursuing Magicians,and provided great cover for those that were not suitable for close-distance combat.
“Brother, none of us can fly, it doesn’t make any difference even if we know where its weakness is, there’s no way we can attack its head!” Jiang Yu yelled at Ai Jiangtu from where he was taking cover in one of the alleyways.
However, as soon as he finished the sentence, the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast blocked off the entrance of the alleyway. Its eyestalk was looking right down the narrow path.
The creature completely blocked off the light coming into the alleyway where Jiang Yu had entered. The man was soaked in cold sweat and no longer dared to stay around any longer.
In the creature’s eyes, Jiang Yu was like a little mouse who had escaped into a tiny gap. Luckily, the buildings were rather solid. Even a Commander-level creature would need some time to destroy them!
The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was losing its temper. It slammed its four arms into the building, trying to force its way down the narrow path. Jiang Yu immediately took off and ran toward the other end of the alleyway.
“Damn, such remarkable design!” Jiang Yu was impressed by the Japanese’s intelligence when he saw that the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was greatly hindered by the buildings!
“Jiang Yu, Jiang Yu, not that way!” Jiang Yu heard someone scream amid the loud noises produced by the collapsing buildings.
“Are you telling me to run into the creature’s mouth? I will if I don’t run this way!” cursed Jiang Yu, who was obviously in a panic.

A Fool's Journey, or the Vagrancies of a Man in Exotic Lands
What does a sad bastard do when fate, literally, decides to throw him into a fantasy world? Solon just wanted to lead a normal life; work, share some pizza with friends, work, play some videogames or read something, work, maybe sleep?, work... Pretty much the usual, rinse and repeat. It was far from perfect, but life was nicely boring and comfy enough. Truth be told, he had hoped it would go on forever, or until he got married, or until the apocalypse finally decided to bring an end to everything. As far as he could tell, though, the former was about as likely as the latter; not very. And perhaps even somewhat related, if it ever came to it. Unfortunately, he saw himself involved in some sort of cosmic fart that screwed him over, brutally severing his life-plan. Or, maybe, would it be more suitable to say that Fate had other plans? Sure, he's yet to find out exactly what those plans might be, but, at the very least, they do seem to involve him being shoved into another world, fighting off a couple of horrendous creepers, and -almost- an accidental liaison with a baboon. Needless to say, the job doesn't come with dental care, and death seems more likely than retirement... Yep, when he got yoinked out of Earth, there were no princesses waiting for him, no sexy goddesses, and no severe Gandalf-wannabes! Heck, not even a bunch of demonic cultists! All he got for the trouble was a bunch of snarky windows and the honest desire to punch whatever bastard happens to be behind the smug System. Well, that, and a few forced trips to the so-called Tower of Ascension. Not exactly what he would have expected but, on the plus side, he does get to do some magic. Though, not quite the wand-waving kind. Whatever. One thing’s patently clear, though, he’s certainly not the chosen one, nor the summoned hero, nor the Savior. If anything, he himself might be in need of some saving... Just what kind of fool does the System take him for? Please do consider the tags. Also, 'Strong Lead' here means weak to strong, over a decent amount of time, not op from the very beginning. Things to expect: decent grammar, cheeky goats. Things not to expect: Harems, a decent sense of fashion.

Re:Arifureta
On what seem like a normal Monday morning, Hajime and his entire class found themselves kidnapped in a foreign world. In this land of fantasy and adventure, could they have been summoned to their own personal heaven, or somewhere else?No, this is not your standard Re:monster rip off, this is my first attempt to rewrite a story better than the original auther. To me the original Arifureta started off with a great idea that it completely failed to live up to in terms of story story with it's chuunibyou power fantasy main character, pedophilic undertones, unlikable side characters, and woe is me everyone hates me mindset. This is me trying to fix that

The times and struggle of a orc cook in the Demon Lord's army. (On Hiatus due to reasons seen in summary)
Title needed a change. So a full honest update to you all who are reading and following this story. I'm putting this story on a Hiatus not only because of I'm trying to improve my spelling and grammer (which is slow going) but also due to other reasons listed down below. 1) The story is getting a full re-write as these last months have given me time to see what I have already writen and what else I have planned is not gonna work no matter how much I've tried with what I call 'test chapters' to see how what works or not. 2) I don't really have the time to write, mainly thanks to life deciding to throw a bunch of stuff and leaving me exhausted both mentally and physically. And what little free time I have is barely enough for me to do anything that other than sleep or play a game for maybe 15 min. 3) I have a job and bills to pay. Some of which are overdue. It also dose not help that thanks to the new inflations in prices, I've been struggling to get things in order. So now you all know. Once things have calmed down and gotten somewhat in order again, I'll be posting the new first chapter as soon as I can along with a new summary for the story. Until then, I hope you all have a nice day and enjoy all the other stories you can find around this wonderful site.
