Ruk rolls his shoulders, the sound like boulders grinding together. He plants his hooves, lowers his head slightly, and grips his weapon, a massive halberd whose head alone is larger than a man.
Mana erupts around him.
The ground beneath Ruk fractures as a crimson aura explodes outward, crushing dust flat in a perfect circle.
Alix's voice carries calmly across the battlefield.
"Ruk. Destroy it."
Ruk grins.
"As you wish, my lord."
He slams the halberd's head into the ground.
The skill activates.
"TIER 6 BLOODLINE SKILL: BULL KING'S DOMINION"
The world seems to tilt toward him.
Gravity warps, dragging everything forward. Ruk lowers his head completely, horns blazing with light, and then.
He charges.
The distance vanishes.
Arrows scream toward him, hundreds at once.
They shatter.
Some snap midair. Others glance off his hide like rain hitting iron. Fire spells detonate against his aura and are swallowed whole.
"Stop him!" a mage screams. "Focus fire!"
Too late.
