บท 377: You Shall Not Pass!

Kiba himself was surprised as a humongous spear landed in front of him, stopping him from moving forward.

He raised his head and looked at the two humanoid statues that were slowly making movements.

An hour ago, just after he entered the core region, he has used supervision to scout the area, and ultimately, the presence of the statues hindered his vision.

While he knew they weren't ordinary, he didn't think they would come to life just as he tried to leave the starting area. 

RUMBLINGGGGG

The bodies of the statues left the cliffs they were joined with. Dust and rock fragments continued to fall down along with what little vegetation grew around.  

Cracks appeared on the ground as the statues lifted their feet. Red smog splashed out, making the area enveloped into a dust cloud.

The next moment, as the feet landed back on the ground, the dust cloud dissipated just as quickly as it was formed.
