Right after sending his own counter projectile, Kriang wondered what was going to come next. The young warrior had a thought for a moment that the color of those arrows were different...red....and seemed to disappear after impact. If he had to guess...this Endless warrior must've owned a special bow or something but he couldn't tell just yet. Still not fully able to see him, Kriang heard the impact of his attack, making him smile, marveling over his own skill. That moment though, while having an arrogant expression on his face thinking his enemy may have been defeated, he noticed at the last second, another arrow coming which didn't give him time to dodge. He had no choice, calling on the protection of the Yantra tat, he lifted his forearms up for the guard as his limbs changed color, that of a golden bronze, right before the arrow hit him. Upon taking the hit, Kriang effectively defended himself but the despite the defense and the protection from the tattoo, Kriang could feel the intense burning sensation on his arms, looking down at them as they sizzled. "What the-....what kind of arrows...were they?" he said to himself confused and wondering if this was some kind of magic. Now was not the time to wonder about such things as he could hear movement, fast movement, turning to the sounds and catching sight from his left flank of the monk going at astonishing speed. Kriang got into fight stance and prepared to move about to potentially evade or go toe to toe with him. This monk looked young...and interesting looking man but he couldn't underestimate him. Kriang gave a large grin and dashed his way towards Xing Yi just so he wouldn't have to wait on the monk to make his move.
