Chapter 252 - The Legend Of The Boar Berserker 02

Too bad for the beasts, Steve had predicted their retreat and prepared countermeasures. He cast a stacked Earth Spike spell and made a series of spikes appear behind the beasts, blocking their retreat.

The beasts tried to run away by turning back. But they soon saw the crescent-shaped series of 12 feet earthen spikes blocking their escape from all directions. They were boxed in.

"Choo Choo, you sons of bitches. Haha!"

Steve said and directed the boar he was riding on onto the one that he guessed was the most dangerous among the beasts waiting on the sidelines. He stepped right foot onto the blind beast's head and pressed down hard while removing his spikes from its eye sockets. The berserker jumped in the air using the beast's head as a stepping platform.

The beast's head tilted downwards because of Steve's jump– its tusks were pointed right at the beast which was in front of it. The beast was busy trying to headbutt the spikes that had suddenly appeared and blocked its path. Using its tusk, it tried to destroy the obstacle.

But then it heard its peers' commotion and it turned back. The sight of the bling beast charging forth with its tusks pointed outwards was waiting for it. The beast tried to use its tusk as well to deflect the blow heading towards it. But alas, it was already too late.

The blind beast's tusks rammed right into the trapped beast's frontal torso after the two sets of tusks intermingled. The momentum of the blind beast was already too much for either of the beasts to come out unscathed.

But the blind beast's tusks made the situation even direr. The tusks first pushed the trapped beast backwards until it touched the spike that was located behind it.

The tusk's blunt force was enough for the trapped beast to feel pain despite its earthen armour spell. The force of the blunt impact penetrated the beast's armour and broke a few of its rib bones. The beast cried in agony.

But this resulted from the blunt force of the tusks. The blind beast's momentum hadn't been zeroed out yet. Its tusks pressed hard on the trapped beast's frontal torso and started cracking because it couldn't break the trapped beast's armour. The beast was already touching the spike from its rear end.

In response to the blunt force of equal magnitude, but of opposing victor, the tusks of the blind beast were cracked and were about to snap. But the first to show cracks and cracks were not the beast's white tusks.

It was the trapped beast's defensive spell that had broken first after its collision with the blind beast's tusks. The internal injury the former had suffered because of the latter's sudden collision was enough for the injured beast to dispel its armour.

The blind beast's tusks were digging into the flesh of the trapped beast now as a result of the armour spell getting dispersed. The latter's tusks which were pointed upwards now hit the former as well because of the sheer collision force. The two beasts crashed heavily onto the spike that was strategically placed behind them.

'Damn it. Their tusks are cracked on their surfaces. Hope Eren and Besanc don't mind them too much.'

Steve thought and cursed himself for pulling a stunt like this. It might look like the battle lasted quite a while. But in reality, only a few moments had passed. Steve watched the whole event from the air and regretted his reckless actions.

Every set of tusks provided a substantial amount of Merps for LA students. Steve was sure a miser like Eren would critique him and his actions. He thought this would end when he found out about what happened to not one but two of the boars' sets of tusks. Worst case, Eren would take a huge cut from his share of the mission as a form of compensation.

But the deed was already done. There was no benefit to be gained by crying over spilt milk. Steve could pull the same stunt again by targeting his next target the same way. But this time, he valued his potentially dwindling Merps' share more and decided to engage with the beasts in one of the most primal ways possible- punching.

The berserker retrieved his vial of berserker potion and drank it just before he landed on the ground. He threw the vial down and broke it before wiping the residual potion off of his lips.

Steve bolted towards the beast nearest to him as he felt the berserking potion's effects kicking in. His earth armour spell gained even more toughness and durability as a result.

Bam!

He avoided the beast's attack on time and punched it right in the torso from the side. The latter was pushed in the opposite direction because of that seemingly uncalled-for punch.

Steve had seen first-hand how the right amount of blunt force could allow it to breach the defensive spells. So he didn't hold back and started exerting more force in his technique-driven punches.

The other two boars wanted to intervene. But every time they tried, a bunch of spikes would get in between their charge.

Steve handled the multiple beasts excellently with his mid-range Earth Spikes spell backing his play. He used them to retreat in the air where the beasts couldn't touch him.

The White Raven's official berserker was on autopilot as he fought with the beasts. When he was done, the last of the three beasts had its defensive spell dispersed and its now-out-in-the-open body covered in blunt force injuries. This time Steve had made sure that the beasts' tusks were unharmed during his battle.

With the last potential threat dropping on the ground, the White Raven Crew's first mission was technically over. It only needed a clean-up now. And a post-mission pork feast to celebrate the team's feat was also due.

===================

AN: I have tried to make White Raven Crew's first Besanc mission as immersive as possible while showcasing its crew members' progress. There were many rewrites before the scenes felt alive to me. Hope you enjoyed them.

I'll release a regular chapter and a bonus chapter in a few hours.
