Chapter 26: A Pain in the Ass
It’s eyes were soon enshrouded in red due to its overflowing blood vessels, it’s rage risen to its peak. It shrieked with fury and was about to attack Lin Mu again when a volley of glistening projectiles came flying from the distance.
They streaked through the air, slamming into the creature’s flanks, a few bounced of it’s hard exoskeleton but some still managed to pierce in-between the gaps in it’s carapace, causing the best to cry out in pain.
" They’re finally here." Lin Mu said with a bit of relief.
Lin Mu glanced toward the settlement and saw a group of armed humanoids charging toward them on similar looking mounts. Their weapons gleaming menacingly as they reflected the sunlight.

The shark-like creature roared again, this time in warning and surrender as it began retreating. Its massive form sank back into the sand, disappearing as quickly as it had appeared.
" Finally...it’s over..." Lin Mu exhaled, his muscles aching from the effort. Before he could even consider his next move, the armed group encircled him in the blink of an eye and turned their weapons toward him, their stances hostile.
