These Familiars Are Strange-Chapter 256: Corrupted sand person (1)
When the corrupted sand person saw that we didn't respond and even seemed like we were preparing for a fight, it didn't waste any time.
In the first place, it had already been looking at us with a hostile look and spoke to us in a hostile tone.
It was impossible for the corrupted sand person to hide the aggression that they had towards us.
But then again, it really wouldn't have mattered either since we had unlocked the minimap function.
It really was hard to miss the large red dot that was on our minimap right where the corrupted sand person was standing.

Once the corrupted sand person made its move, we didn't hold back either.
But the corrupted sand person was still charging forward while we moved to the side. With the way that it was charging forward, it was going right where we had been standing previously.
It was as if it didn't see us spread out at all.
And that was because it really didn't see us spread out.
There were illusions that stopped it from seeing us.
In the eyes of the corrupted sand person, it was still seeing the three figures standing there looking at it.
Only when the corrupted sand person came close did it have a different reaction.
The corrupted sand person suddenly brought its arms up and lifted the sand off the ground, forming a shield in front of it as if it was blocking some kind of attack. It was just that this was an attack that only the corrupted sand person could see since it was an illusion.
After creating that sand shield, it also created several spikes of sand that it thrust into the ground before coming up where we had been standing previously.
The way that the corrupted sand person was fighting, it was putting on a one person show.
After all, there wasn't a single enemy that it was actually fighting.
It was only fighting what it thought it was seeing.
During this time, we didn't actually make a move against the corrupted sand person. Rather, we had spread out and we were just standing there watching as the corrupted sand person released its attacks.
We were carefully watching as the corrupted sand person released these attacks, paying attention to what it could do and the power that these attacks had.
"It has the same level of power as one of the high rank Abyss Demons, doesn't it?" I said to Iris and Wang Rong.
Both of them nodded in agreement without saying anything since they couldn't let their voices be carried on the wind like mine. Only I could do this because I had the power of the Astral White Tiger.
Even though this corrupted sand person had the same level of power as one the high rank Abyss Demons, that didn't mean that we were worried.
After all, we already possessed enough power to take down one or two of the high rank Abyss Demons in the first place. That was before we had killed Jin Long's group and gained these new skills.
With these new skills, it was only natural that we would be even more confident in fighting the corrupted sand person.
After seeing it fight for a bit and seeing that it didn't have anything else to show, I gave the signal to Wang Rong.
Wang Rong gave a nod before charging at the corrupted sand person without a single bit of hesitation.
The corrupted sand person didn't notice this until it was too late since it had still been fighting against the illusions that I had been showing it.
When it finally noticed Wang Rong, it was already too late for the corrupted sand person to actually put up defenses against him.
Wang Rong's great sword was already falling down on the corrupted sand person.
But it didn't cut through the corrupted sand person in the end.
Instead, the corrupted sand person channeled the sand of its body into its arms and that caused the arms to swell. It didn't take long before they became large club like things that it held up to block the great sword.
Wang Rong used as much power as he could, as well as increasing his weight as much as he could just to make his strike heavier. But in the end, the sword wasn't able to cut through those club like arms of the corrupted sand person.
"Seriously?" Wang Rong couldn't help complaining when he saw this, but he didn't complain for long.
After all, the corrupted sand person lifted up its arms and seemed like it wanted to lift Wang Rong off the ground. At the same time, the sand that was under the feet of the corrupted sand person was also moving.
It was as if it was churning, as if something was about to come out.
Wang Rong didn't hesitate to jump back while using all his strength to pull out the great sword, but it didn't seem like he was able to pull it out of the arms of the corrupted sand person.
With the way that it was embedded in the arms, it really seemed like it was completely stuck.
And when Wang Rong looked closely, he could even see that there was this strange black sand that was in the center of the corrupted sand person's arms.
"Move!"
Wang Rong didn't hesitate to move his body to the side when he heard this and there was a bolt of lightning that went past him.
That bolt of lightning hit the corrupted sand person in the arm and chest, breaking the great sword free.
With the heat of the lightning bolt, it actually turned the sand of the corrupted sand person into glass shards. This weakened the arms of the corrupted sand person enough that Wang Rong was able to pull his great sword out.
But at the same time, it revealed something inside of the corrupted sand person.
It was this strange black sand that made up the core of the corrupted sand person.
