Chapter 273: Time to get Kraken
Max sprinted across the water, passing the first island and reaching the place where the other rowboats were.
Tanila and Cordellia had moved to the opposite end of the island, where the Kraken had vanished underneath the water. Their presence had summoned it and the spells and arrows from the pair kept it engaged as he made it back to the entrance of the boss floor.
Rowing back to the island was harder than he imagined as the paddles felt like they would snap from the speed and strength so he ended up returning to the start, stacking two boats on top of each other, and carrying them as he ran back to the island.
As he neared the outer ring, the beast started to rise, tentacles lashing out from the water, yet Max dodged and ran, smiling as the boss’s head appeared over the water and it let out a roar that he believed meant it was upset.

“That is completely not fair,” Fowl stated as he watched Max set the two new boats down by the other three. “Running on water? What are you? Some kind of god?”
Ignoring Fowl’s joke, Max pointed at the four of them, each now holding an orb from a pedestal in their hands.
“Are you certain you can keep its attention?” Tanila asked. “That’s a big ask.”
“I’m going to piss it off, don’t you worry. Cordellia already shared with me the good stuff.”
