Soon, the serpent spirit, having consumed the blood sacrifice, charged towards David once again. Its speed was even faster than before, moving at twice the previous speed. Its massive scales rubbed against the ground, stirring up clouds of dust.

David immediately became fully alert, cautiously watching its movements. Just as it was about to reach him, David opened another spatial portal and disappeared from his original position.

This time, instead of appearing in a different direction, David reappeared ten meters away from the serpent spirit. He knew that engaging in close-quarters combat with the beast was not a viable option.

Although David was a Level 7 esper, capable of overpowering a Level 6 esper like Gary, the serpent spirit was, after all, a wild beast. Its level was slightly higher than Gary's.

Instead of rushing into an attack, David chose to maintain a distance and observe the serpent spirit's every move. Upon seeing David appear in another location, the serpent spirit hissed and once again dragged its massive body towards him.

Compared to before, the serpent spirit's speed was noticeably faster this time. In the blink of an eye, it reached David's vicinity. Before David could open a spatial portal, the serpent spirit suddenly opened its mouth wide, revealing its sharp teeth, and lunged at him.

"Uh-oh!" David muttered under his breath and quickly rolled on the ground, taking cover behind a car, narrowly evading the serpent spirit's attack. Unfortunately, the car in front of him suffered the consequences as the serpent spirit bit a large hole through its roof.

Charles, Sally, and Sophie instantly became tense. They had never expected the serpent spirit's power to become so terrifying. Arnold, who was regaining consciousness, opened his eyes and anxiously stared at David, who was leaping around on the car. Although they wanted to help, they knew that their abilities were no match for the serpent spirit. They could potentially become a liability to David. They had been instructed to remain in their positions and provide assistance when needed. Everyone watched David's battle with serious expressions, their hearts pounding.

Seeing David dodge the attack, the serpent spirit twisted its body and launched another assault towards him. David continuously dodged, utilizing the parked cars as cover, while also contemplating his countermeasures. He noticed that although the serpent spirit was fast and powerful, its elongated body hindered the effectiveness of its attacks.

The serpent spirit's main offensive power resided in its head, while its rear body, apart from its thick scales, was practically ineffective.

David formulated a plan. "Strike at the serpent's weak point," and in this case, the weak point was the serpent's rear body. If he continued to engage with the front half of its body, he wouldn't gain any advantage. Only by attacking the serpent's rear half could he find a breakthrough.

As David sprinted forward, he suddenly halted, then somersaulted in mid-air. Utilizing the spatial portal, he disappeared from the serpent spirit's line of sight. Simultaneously, he reappeared behind the serpent spirit. Raising his space blade high, he fiercely swung it towards the vulnerable spot on the serpent's scales.

"Clang!" The sound of metal clashing resounded as the space blade struck the serpent spirit's body, but it didn't inflict any damage. The serpent spirit tilted its head and coldly stared at David.

David, who had anticipated this outcome, remained calm and immediately fetched a can of gasoline from the warehouse. Opening the gasoline can, he quickly poured all of its contents onto the seven inches of the snake spirit. Instantly, the underground parking lot was filled with a strong gasoline smell.I think you should take a look at

Next, David retrieved a flashbang grenade from the warehouse and shouted loudly to Duke, "Shadow Magic !"

While speaking, David had already thrown the flashbang grenade high into the air, and at the same time, he swiftly moved to the side.

Just as he landed, the flashbang grenade in the air suddenly emitted a bright light. The shadows of nearby objects were instantly cast on the ground, including the shadow of the snake spirit.

Duke, who had been waiting on the side, immediately raised his hands and fiercely grabbed the shadow of the snake spirit.

"Hiss! Hiss!" In an instant, the snake spirit was firmly immobilized by Duke's Shadow Control Magic. Duke exerted all his strength in this grab, even needing Sally's assistance.

Meanwhile, David took out a windproof lighter and, as it ignited, he coldly stared at the snake spirit, quietly saying, "In the presence of humans, a beast will forever remain a beast. Goodbye."

After speaking, David threw the lighter, still aflame, at the snake spirit. Hiss~~ As the lighter touched the gasoline-soaked body of the snake spirit, a large flame erupted. The fire quickly spread and soon engulfed the entire snake spirit.

"Hiss!!" The snake spirit seemed to be in excruciating pain from the burning flames. It struggled to break free but was forcefully held in place by Duke's Shadow Control Art, leveraging the strength of everyone present. The fire grew larger, and the scales on its body began to crackle. David could almost smell the scent of charred flesh in the air.

"Damn it! This is so infuriating! How could it end up like this?" Gary, seeing this scene, was instantly filled with anger. He hurriedly tried to move and rescue the snake spirit. However, before he could take a step, Little Black and Cola rushed forward, preventing him from moving any further.

But Gary's body was already extremely weak; how could he withstand the attacks of two animal spirits? Soon, he was pinned down by a pounce from Little Black.

Charles, seeing this, quickly approached and drew a short knife from his waist, pressing it firmly against Gary's neck. The fire continued to burn on the snake spirit's body. After a moment, the flames finally subsided, and the snake spirit, which had been struggling desperately, became motionless.

Duke let go of his hands and started to breathe heavily. He had exerted almost all of his strength to suppress the snake spirit. Consequently, he was now in a weakened state. Sophie immediately activated Stellar Healing to assist Duke.

Looking at the dark corpse of the snake spirit, a cold smile finally appeared on David's lips. He then walked over to Gary's side.
