This time, Ethan paid close attention as Soul Surge formed. The last attack had caught him off guard, but now he watched the entire process.
Hummm…
The orb descended.
Ethan shifted into Travel Form, his movement speed skyrocketing to 290%. He bolted out of the attack range just in time.
Boom!
The orb hit the ground and dissolved into it. Ethan stopped and turned to look. The skill was terrifying. Even with Bear Form's 35,000 HP, he'd barely survived the last hit. If he took another, he wasn't sure he'd make it—defense had upper and lower limits, and there was no guarantee the next hit would trigger his higher defense stat.
He stared at the spot where the orb had vanished, then glanced up at the swirling vortex in the sky. "Is this because I've been killing too many monsters here?" he muttered. "Am I being targeted?"
