Strongest Hammer God

BANG!

The huge base hit the stalactite behind it, breaking it into pieces.

Kyle saw the chameleon jumping to the side.

Naturally, it had managed to avoid the attack.

However, it didn’t launch the second attack with its tongue, opting to pull it back instead.

‘It’s scared of direct attacks,’ Kyle thought as he used Time Slow to plan. ‘The stone should have barely done anything if it had hit, and it would have had a chance of killing me if it just continued.’

‘It values safety over killing me.’

In the short moment of safety, Kyle pulled out a handful of ore from one of his satchels and shoved it into his mouth.

Usually, it only took a couple of seconds for Kyle to refill his Ether storage, and it wasn’t different right now.

Yet, a couple of seconds during such a fast battle was quite a lot of time.

During that short pause, the chameleon managed to land on a new stalactite.

That was when it released a lot of Water Ether into the surroundings.

As Kyle touched another stalactite to shoot forward, he slipped.

Viscous water had suddenly come out of the stalactite.

The chameleon saw its chance and shot its tongue at Kyle again.

Suddenly, fire appeared around the falling Kyle.

The chameleon’s tongue burst through the middle of the fire.

But there was nothing there.

The chameleon became confused and pulled its tongue back.

At that moment, a hand came out of the scattered flames above the tongue and grabbed it.

This was one of Kyle’s new techniques, Fire Cloak.

Fire Cloak created a big flame, masking his position.

He didn’t need to be in the center of the flame to use it.

This technique was primarily used to hide the user’s location from the enemy.

While he had used Fire Cloak, Kyle had slowed his fall with his Soul.

Without Fire Cloak, the chameleon would have seen Kyle slowing his fall and would have adjusted its tongue’s trajectory accordingly.

Kyle was pulled towards the chameleon as he held the tongue.

Yet, just an instant later, Kyle held his hammer to the tongue in front of him and positioned himself above it.

BANG!

As expected, the metallic spears came out of the tongue again.

The spears only hit the hammer’s head, shooting it away.

Kyle was shot diagonally upward with his hammer, and he landed on the ceiling with his feet, stones bursting out from around him.

BANG!

Then, Kyle shot forward with all of his speed, right towards the chameleon. BOOOM!

Kyle’s hammer destroyed the stalactite the chameleon had been on.

Had been.

Naturally, the chameleon had already jumped to a new one.

BANG!

Kyle jumped off the destroyed stalactite and flew to another one.

Before the chameleon could launch another attack, Kyle destroyed the next stalactite again.

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

Kyle kept chasing the chameleon from stalactite to stalactite.

Every time Kyle launched an attack, he had to use quite a bit of Ether due to the weight of his hammer.

With just his physical body, he couldn’t launch the hammer with a lot of speed.

He needed to use the Ether of his Center as well.

Meanwhile, the chameleon was barely using any Ether since it was only using its physical power.

The chameleon hadn’t used that water ability again after the first time since it cost a lot of Ether.

As Kyle kept charging after the chameleon, he kept destroying stalactites.

Eventually, the chameleon landed on a stalactite that didn’t have any other stalactites close to it.

Kyle approached, and the chameleon tried to find another stalactite to cling to.

Yet, the only thing it saw was raining rubble.

Big parts of the ceiling were collapsing, and there was no free path to another stalactite.

It could probably just jump through the rubble and grab another stalactite, but that didn’t feel safe enough.

Instead, it remained on the stalactite and launched an attack at Kyle with its tongue.

As the tongue approached, the metal spears appeared again.

There was no way to grab onto it.

Kyle gritted his teeth and used three Boosts to get to the side.

Each Boost cost a lot of Ether, which was why he wanted to avoid using them.

The spears barely missed Kyle.

Then, the spears retreated back into the tongue as it turned around to attack Kyle again.

Beside the tongue, Kyle turned around and held his hammer forward.

BOOOOM!

The tip of the tongue hit Kyle’s hammer, catapulting him towards the chameleon at insane speeds.

The chameleon jumped away.

BOOOM!

Kyle shot through the stalactite, hammer first.

While this was happening, he watched the chameleon jump onto the ceiling.

Its clawed feet dug into the ceiling, and even its sharp tail dug into it.

When the chameleon was clinging to stalactites, it was not clawing at them with its appendages.

In a way, it just held onto it like a man would hold onto a coconut tree while climbing it.

It could also use its appendages to stab into surfaces, but it avoided doing so.

The reason was stability.

The chameleon was quite heavy, and stone wasn’t as hard for beings of their level as it was for normal people.

If it just used a bit too much power, it would break the stone and lose its hold.

BANG!

Kyle used a Boost and landed on the ceiling, in front of the chameleon.

He used his Soul to attach to the ceiling and looked at the chameleon in front of him.

It was only around two meters high and five meters long without its tail, but it was probably the most terrifying thing Kyle had ever fought.

Both of them stood opposite each other, evaluating the other party.

By now, the chameleon’s eyes had stopped darting around.

Both of them were fully focused on Kyle.

Kyle narrowed his eyes.

‘I can kill it!’

For the first time during the fight, Kyle activated his Momentum.

Then, he burst forward.
