{Species Na: Ancs, a species that cos together and forms one giant creature once they feel threatened.}
{Strengths: Super regeneration: Sticky blood: Bone Shriek.}
{Weaknesses: They cannot keep their form for very long if they’re constantly attacked.}
After quickly studying the creature, or Anc, Ace quickly shared the information with Cherry and Jim, making sure not to leave out the crucial points. Having already witnessed its super-regenerative and sticky blood strength, all that was left was the Bone Shriek ability which neither wanted to stick around close enough to understand what it ant or how it exactly worked.
"That system thing of yours is really helpful." Jim said to Ace while creating a thick string of blood and later putting it in between the Anc’s jaws. "How does it suggest we defeat this thing?
"It can’t last for long, so if we hit it with everything we’ve got, we’ll tire it out" Ace answered while stretching forth his other hand to activate his newly leveled-up skill.
[Blood Control Level 2: Activated.]
After activating the skill, Ace folded his fingers into his palms and focused on the creature’s head. Since the system ntioned sothing about him being able to control certain body parts, he decided to try the skill out and disrupt the Anc’s head.
"What are you doing? It’s sohow getting stronger!!" Cherry angrily muttered to Ace while they continued to pull back from getting too close to the creature. While Ace kept his hand stretched out, the Anc started shaking its head vigorously while its sticky blood line pulled harder on their bodies, drawing them closer to it at a much faster rate. "Ace, whatever it is you are doing, do it preferably before this thing’s claws rip our heads off of our bodies.
"Just a little longer," Ace struggled, pressing his fingers closer together. The Anc’s head started to bulge in diverse areas while blood seeped from its head holes. Its eyes bulged to near explosion and its once loud roar turned into a choking screech with Ace making sure to coagulate the blood in its vocal cords, keeping it from roaring at all.
"It’s working." Jim leaped back and then charged in one more ti with his fingers being reinforced with hardened blood at the tips. Going for the sides of its head, he quickly shoved his hands as deep as he could while draining as much blood as he possibly could before it could start thickening.
anwhile, Ace kept his hand stretched out with his fingers finally folded into a complete fist. With one last squeeze, Ace managed to cause the insides of the Anc’s head to implode, killing it in an instant.
As soon as it died, its body dropped to the ground and decomposed back into tiny severed chunks of flesh. The sticky blood that once held Ace and Cherry in place beca runny again, allowing them to get free and move freely again.
[Transformation: Cancelled.]
"Excellent," One Horn returned with soft cheers for the blood mutants. "You three seem to have grasped the basics of teamwork. Although you will still need more training, this will have to do for now."
"What’s next?" Ace asked, fixated on fighting creatures that would earn him experience points. "Are we going to fight more aliens again?"
"No, you’ve done enough fighting." One Horn answered while Jim and Cherry deford due to the blood mutant blocker the Granian activated. "Now that you three can handle the lowest-tiered species together, your next training involves you three getting more creative with your skills, physical and ntal exercises, and adaptability to the different conditions you’re going to be put in.
"You’re also going to be put in situations that are nearly fatal for blood mutants."
"What do you an?" Cherry inquired.
"Granians aren’t the only ones who know about blood mutants." The Granian answered. "Other lifeforms know about blood mutants, aning they know what makes you strong or weak. To counter that, we’ll put you in conditions that can kill you if not careful. Don’t bother resting,’ he said as he motioned for them to rise back up on their feet. "The first thing we have to focus on is fixing your terrible fighting styles. You three only know how to punch and kick and shot blood. It’s ti we changed that."
While elaborating on what next was going to happen, the Granian shot the three blood mutants with the scales on his tail. The scales were tipped with green fluid, similar to his blood in terms of color. As soon as the liquid made its way into their bloodstreams, the three humans passed out imdiately and lost consciousness. This happened so fast that neither of them had the ti to react or even process what happened.
If this was a real battle to the death, neither of these blood mutants would be able to defend themselves, especially with a Granian that had a skill like that.
**************
*SMACK*
Rolling vigorously on the ground was Skyler who had just taken a heavy kick to her chest by Huntress in their little sparring ’lesson.’ The young woman was surrounded by four of the sa creatures that attacked Jim not so long ago.
Having to deal with the creatures and Huntress was starting to beco a challenge for Skyler. To make things worse, the young woman had not eaten for hours. Her body was digesting itself at this mont, and whenever she transford, the DNA cells of the beasts she would turn into would have a drastic effect on her body.
’There’s no way I can beat these things and battle her at the sa ti.’ Skyler cursed while trying to nurse her wounds. Due to her low energy levels, her body could only keep one part transford at a ti. This beca hard for her to go on either the offensive or defensive. It also beca a bigger challenge since the transford part was heavier for her to use effectively. To her, it felt like fighting with a log strapped onto her body.
"If you don’t defend yourself, you will die." Huntress giggled, for all of this seed to be a ga to her. "Those things are going easy on you because I’m commanding them to."
"I’m hungry, Huntress." Skyler ignored the Granians’ warnings and instead made her needs known. ’I need to eat sothing or else I’ll pass out."
"Awwww, but you haven’t even laid a single finger on ." Huntress pouted, but not in a way one would like. "Tell you what. Let’s make this even so that you’ll be able to handle these beasts with ease and...." She shrieked, "If you lay just one hit, I will end this imdiately and get you sothing to feast on, since you’re the only one that does not depend on blood entirely.
"How exactly do you propose to...." While Skyler started with her questions, Huntress through her ring blade at one of the creatures. The blade spun through the creature’s body, spewing lots of blood everywhere. Eventually, so of those droplets made contact with Skyler’s body and now registered as a new DNA for her to transform into.
As soon as her body registered the DNA, the transformation began imdiately with her body breaking down and building itself back up. The painful process began with her skin peeling off like molten plastic. Her muscles wrapped themselves onto her bones and eventually snapped them. Her head sank within itself, causing large amounts of blood to spew out.
Her hands grew longer with her phalanges separating into long, dangly, individual parts that were oddly spaced out. Once her bones regenerated, her muscles grew short, green fur follicles everywhere while her head restructured to resemble the creature whose DNA she now had.
*SCREEEEECH*
A combination of a human’s screams of terror and a siren’s cry composed Skyler’s screech. The remaining creatures crawled backward with their white, lifeless eyes showing the true terror behind their gazes.
The young woman’s new form was a replication of the beasts, only this ti she was three tis their size and seed to be much more aggressive than they were.
*SCREEEEECH*
Having lost control of her sanity, sothing that happened whenever her body registered a DNA sample for her transformation to base off of, Skyler ran on all four limbs, aiming for Huntress who was now her main subject of interest.
The remaining creatures tried attacking her with slashes, only for them to get their heads caught in her massive claws and smashed on the ground, killing them on spot. As for Huntress, she remained in one place, waiting for Skyler to get closer.
*SCREEEECH*
Instead of running into Huntress, Skyler leaped into the air and ca landing with a heel kick ready to make contact with the Granian’s head. However, Huntress’ reaction speed was far more superior, allowing her to dodge effortlessly while Skyler began to struggle with keeping up.
"You’ve gone on a rampage again," Huntress giggled while skillfully playing with her ring blade. "This isn’t going to be a fair fight....for you."
