บท 416: Battling monsters 2

As Rio and Katherine were dealing with the second group of Gravorgs, splattering stones and hot blood all over the place, another creature burst out from the shadows and attacked them—a Vorrath. This beast was far more terrifying, and hideous than something akin to a stone golem.

Vorrath resembled a twisted fusion of a lion and a scorpion, its elongated tail tipped with a glowing stinger that dripped with venom. Its skin was a mottled, deep purple, pulsating with sickly energy. Its fangs were long and serrated, designed to tear through flesh and bone with ease.

It lunged at Katherine, its scorpion tail whipping forward like a spear. She barely managed to duck, the tip of the stinger grazing her cheek, leaving behind a searing burn. She flipped backward, but the monster was relentless, pressing the attack with a series of quick, venomous strikes.
