Floki's torso blurred forward as he switched to the Battle-mage path and activated Stone Reinforcement, forming a layer of defensive stone armor over his body. In the same motion, he swiftly latched onto the gigantic tail of the serpent king before it could destroy anything.
The resulting sound was thunderous, and a shockwave of wind spread across the area, swift and lethal as it tore through everything in its path.

Even so, witnessing the power behind a failed attack from the serpent king was enough. The people feared not only its size and appearance but also the terrifying extent of its capabilities.
