Theo saw the mantis in surprise before he took a few more steps of distance.
The mantis hadn't used its 'Metallic Strike' skill, but just brisked toward the eye and punctured it.
The boar roared with a lot of pain and jerked its face to get the mantis out.
Yet it only made the mantis move left and right, with the two forelegs still in the eye socket.
Theo winced, thinking about how it would feel—to get those blade-like legs in the eye and then move them around.
Without wasting time, he moved forward with his shoulders and arm muscles tightened. It was going to be a strong hit.
'Get out of there,' Theo gave the command as the blade already started moving toward the boar's face. The mantis only had to hop once, and it was so fast that Theo only saw a small silhouette move back, making him know that it was gone.
BANG!!
Theo banged the flat side of the blade right at the boar's head again to do some internal damage while he was at it.
