Lightning Is the Only Way

BZZZZ!

Gravis immediately transformed into lightning as the tree-trunk shot at him with incredible speed. The speed of the ape was incredible, and Gravis needed to anticipate the attack to dodge. Otherwise, his speed wouldn't be fast enough to evade the wide trunk.

SSSSSSSS!

A sizzling and powerful cloud of something green shot at Gravis from the lizard's mouth. The lizard had waited to see where Gravis would evade to and shot his attack at that position. Gravis immediately transformed back and summoned a lot of ore between himself and that green cloud.

The ore immediately started sizzling as it was quickly corroded into nothing. In less than a second, the 100 meters of ore completely vanished into nothing. Luckily, this gave Gravis enough time to flee the area of the breath.

'Acid,' Gravis concluded. Gravis knew a lot about materials, and the fact that this breath had been so effective against Mid Unity Rank materials showed that it wasn't poison. This was actually acid. Poison and venom were more effective on living matter, while acid was more effective on dead matter.

'Yet, acid is also quite effective against natural armor, like scales, for example,' Gravis thought with narrowed eyes. 'My scales won't help me at all if I get hit by that.'

BZZZ!

Gravis barely dodged another hit from the trunk, but the ape wasn't stupid. A punch came from the ape's other hand immediately after the trunk had missed.

BANG!

Gravis transformed back and moved all his power into his body to block the attack. He held his massive saber in front of him to block. Of course, he wasn't blocking with its flat side, but with its edge. Blocking with the flat side would only destroy the saber.
