Chapter 93 The second war of the hill (1/2)
The adult centipede hurled towards me as if pulled by an invisible string.
Haha! Behold the power of gravity mandibles!
After my evolution these larger centipedes don't look nearly as threatening to me, I could defeat them easily before and now that I'm so much larger than I was I hold no fear of them at all.
CRUNCH!
I great the arriving monster with a fearsome snap of my jaws, directly severing the creature in two!

This is amazing! The power of gravity eh?
With my first foe defeated I turn my eye to the progress of the battle.
What had begun as a long line of monsters battling each other has quickly squashed into a broad, circular grand melee, with monsters hurling themselves into battle with each other as far as my eyes can see. The constant noise from all of this fighting is only serving to attract more creatures and so with each pa.s.sing moment the fight extends further into the forest and grows yet more louder.
Tiny is already is the thick of it, smas.h.i.+ng out devastating electrical punches with reckless abandon, the joy of battle sparking in his bat eyes. I hope he doesn't get carried away.
As a matter of fact, it would do for a master to be outperformed by his own pet!
Just as Tiny is about to join battle against a fearsome looking antlered monster I reach out to it with my gravitational energy and latch on, yanking it towards me and right out from under the confused apes nose.
Haha! Take that you ape!
The monster is a little quicker to react than I would have expected however, lowering its many pointed antlers towards me and bellowing with fury at having been summarily pulled through the air.
Yikes!
Quickly jumping out of the way I totally forgot that what the beast was being pulled towards was none other than myself!
Idiot!
CRAs.h.!.+
Luckily the sudden change in direction was enough to throw the point of impact off and the antlered creature smas.h.i.+ng in the ant hill beneath my feet. Even so my legs get clipped and I'm sent spinning madly into the dirt.
Shaking my head I get my feet under me and prepare to do battle with this new beast. My opponent looks similar to buck, or at least, what I imagine a buck would look like if it had been on a steady diet of steroids and its antlers were made of glittering steel.
This beast is absolutely bulging with muscle! What sort of gym junkie of a deer are you?! You need to be more mindful of your health, deer! Those supplements aren't legal!
Staggering to its feet the poor monster is still looking a little the worse of wear after the sudden journey it was forced to undertake. I won't miss this chance! Das.h.i.+ng forward I don't give the beast the time to gain its bearings and chomp down on one of its legs with my mandibles!
Crus.h.i.+ng Bite!
The deer howls in agony as my mandibles squeeze down on the leg, tearing muscle and splintering the bone.
Monsters in this Dungeon don't go down without a fight though! Before I can release my grip and bite again the deer has swung its head, smas.h.i.+ng into me with those fearsome metallic horns.
Cras.h.!.+
The impact staggers me but my carapace holds up under the pressure and isn't punctured by the sharp tips of the antlers.
Thanks for giving me your neck!
Chomp!
