Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 108

Chapter 108: White Tiger
A bicycle would be slower than car and motorcycle.

At least, normally they would.

But after Riya used haste talisman, the bicycle sped up as if it was on a rocket and could easily rival a car’s speed. Riya struggled maintaining the direction towards City A under this extreme speed.

After a while, Riya collapsed on the street.

No way.

Her legs were too tired…

“I should learn how to drive motorcycle at least…” Riya complained and looked at the bicycle behind her with unwillingness. She wanted to go back at the fastest speed possible, but her legs had cramps. Even after her improvement with the formation and so on, her strength was only comparable to rank 1 warrior.

There was still a long way to go before she could reach rank 2…

Her strength was simply too pitiful.

So under the extreme speed of that bicycle, Riya only felt that her legs were about to break.

Riya felt tired.

She should have learned how to drive when she came back in the beginning. Too bad time couldn’t turn back…

*sigh*

Riya stood up and straightened her body. She looked at the bicycle and then looked around. Is there any other transportation that she could use aside from this bicycle? She couldn’t use the motorcycle or cars…

Bang! Roar!

At this moment, there was a loud explosion followed by the roaring of the animals. Riya arched her eyebrows and her fingers twitched a bit. She was itching to give someone a beating and these magic beasts all came at the right time.

How about if she killed them all?

Riya walked to the ruins and looked down. On the small clearing below, there were several magic beasts fighting.

‘Hmm? That’s not a magic beast.’

From the total of four animals in front of her, Riya could see that one of them was not the ordinary magic beast that came out from underground. Instead, it was an animal that absorbed mana on its own and reached rank 1.

This kind of magic beast was quite powerful and talented.

“A tiger…” Riya looked at the tiger and then the other three magic beasts that surrounded it but didn’t make a move. The tiger was white in color, which was quite rare to appear in this place. It might have come out from the zoo or something like that. She wanted to see what this tiger was doing and how it fought with the three magic beasts.

*roar!*

These magic beasts definitely didn’t see Riya and was too busy fighting with the tiger.

The first magic beast pounced forward, trying to use its claw on the tiger.

Swish!

The tiger avoided and pounced to bite.

Bang!

It was knocked over by the second magic beast.

*Roar!*

Watching these magic beasts fought with the tiger, Riya arched her eyebrows. It seemed that these magic beasts couldn’t accept the existence of these animals turning into magic beasts after coming into contact with the mana.

And the lower ranked magic beasts were indeed weak.

As long as they were unranked magic beasts, they were only slightly stronger than ordinary animal. And this white tiger was a bit smarter, killing the unranked magic beasts that attacked it and then swallowed their meat.

In this way, this white tiger eventually become a magic beast like those other magic beasts.

There might be other animals that experienced the same mutation as this white tiger but Riya was too lazy to check.

The world is vast.

Is it that surprising for these animals to adapt to the changes brought by mana? Even humans had started to adapt to this environment and in this situation, it was clear that only the strong will prevail and the weak will die.

It was as simple as that.

Bang!

These magic beasts pounded on the white tiger, but the white tiger didn’t give up and still fought back bravely. When there was a chance, it would claw or bite on the magic beasts that fought against him.

Swish!

As the magic beast jerked to the side, the white tiger suddenly pounced and used its claw to held the shoulder while its mouth opened wide and bite the neck of the magic beast that wanted to eat it.

Bang!

The magic beast thrashed about, but the white tiger didn’t loosen his bite at all and jumped backwards to avoid the other two magic beasts that came to it. Blood was dripping on the magic beasts and the white tiger’s body.

This was truly a brutal fight.

Riya watched the battle for some time and saw the first magic beast had fallen limp on the white tiger’s mouth, but it still didn’t release it and kept on avoiding the attack of the other two magic beasts.

The white tiger felt weak because of the blood loss, but it would not give up so easily.

‘It’s tenacious.’

Riya nodded her head in approval.

She knew very well that what would help them to survive in the last days like this was the determination and will to fight. Without it, they would definitely die and would never be able to survive.

“Hmm, you’ll die if this continued. Well, just count me kind for the time being.”

Tep.

Riya jumped down and landed not far from these magic beasts and the white tiger. They naturally detected Riya and bared their teeth in warning.

However, Riya just looked at the group of magic beasts in amusement. She raised her hand and runes spell appeared instantly.

‘Arrow tracking formation magic.’

Swish! Stab! Swish! Stab!

Two arrows immediately stabbed these two magic beasts in their heart, entering deep until the arrow pierced through their body.

*roar!*

The magic beasts roared weakly before falling down as their mana turned disordered and destroyed them from within.

Riya ignored these two magic beasts and looked at the white tiger, the magic beast on its mouth had dropped on the ground. “Little tiger, you have two choices. Either to die or to follow me.”
