Chapter 54: Brandi's move (1)
At tis, more challenging ghouls appeared on the scene.
But that was only because of the oversight and lack of tools.
Since Hunter and Nakisha could beat a few monsters in a few seconds with their growing teamwork, many corpses were left behind in their wake.
And these two only had two hands to raise and throw them behind.
Which ant that the ghouls' characteristics couldn't be avoided.
Of course, Hunter tried using his red roses as well, but that didn't really help the cause, so he was sotis even on board with the ghouls becoming stronger, just to learn more and face harder challenges!
"Cannibalism at its finest," Hunter comnted as he was before the last platoon of ghouls, whose forms were different and enhanced, all because the ghouls had devoured parts of their fallen comrades.
Those parts sprouted on their bodies, sotis giving them new heads, limbs, and even horns in different and inconvenient areas.
But even if so new body parts were a problem and couldn't be used by the ghouls, it didn't an they were entirely useless.
Having even one additional limb sprouting from the back ant that the ghoul received at least a little more strength and stamina, which could be used to push and pose more challenges to Hunter and his spirits.
"I want to devour them," Nakisha whispered coldly, "Make them revert to their real forms before I kill them."
Brandi sighed, "Just how hungry can you be? Well, since it's the last line of enemies, you're free to play with them, I guess…"
Hunter grinned, "I can tag along for so fun."
He bumped a fist with the red wolf before lurching for a joint attack! Brandi was also in the ga, her toxins washing over the monsters, giving her two hungry teammates significant advantages.
As it was mainly fun, Hunter and Nakisha once again showcased their natural teamwork.
Without any plan beforehand, they went for the sa ghoul, exploiting its new weak points. Since it was a wolf ghoul with huge black horns sprouting from its head, Nakisha kicked the ground and flew above its head, descending like an ominous star of hunger at its forehead.
Nothing could stop her as her strength was now on a different level, all because Hunter had advanced in strength as well.
As she bumped into the wolf's forehead, her force instantly brought it down onto the ground. The heavy horns helped her plan, rooting the head in the silver sand.
At the sa ti, Hunter was already below, all aware of Nakisha's plan, as though he could read her mind or perhaps hunger. His red roses blossod around the monster's head, pinning it to the desert. And then, he thrust his punch, cracking the skull open.
Soon, Nakisha landed with a squat on the broken head, only to quickly rise to her feet and yank off the horns. Using them like spears, she coated them in her mana before hurling them into another monster's mouth.
Well, in this case, two mouths, as the next ghoul had two heads.
One wolf, one dog.
As the weapons were deeply lodged in the throats, Nakisha hopped off the first corpse, giving Hunter room for his next attack.
Which was him grasping the tail of the dead wolf and spinning around before throwing the entire weight at the ghoul with two heads, toppling it backward.
As the monster fell, Hunter and Nakisha instantly went for another attack, this ti, a joint one.
Once again seizing the skies, these two exchanged short glances mid-air before falling onto the head, which shouldn't be on the ghoul, popping it like a waterlon.
And the fun continued, with two of them fighting against ghouls by scratching off their additional parts.
One by one!
-
"It's over…" Hunter panted, barely able to top out the long hours or perhaps days of fighting against the ghouls.
Now, the desert returned to its initial state, with nothing but silver sand expanding across the horizon. Blood and its copious advantage were also gone, either exhausted by Hunter's veins or just gone.
As it subsided, Hunter was surprised to see a black leather armor set resting on a long black cape at the finish line.
The last drums of madness rang in his heart, then.
[You've passed the first test, Hunter… but the deluge of blood you saw was nothing but a drop in the ocean! Like him, you might refuse now, but we're still deeply connected. The thrill you feel by killing others… is the foundation of the madness! You'll reach again once you attain the new blood skill.]
Which explained a lot… and excited Hunter.
"I'll beat you for rotting my teeth again."
As the voice of the heartbeat was indeed the end of the test, Hunter leaned down to pick up the item he had received from it, which he hoped to be able to bring outside.
Yet, sothing within him stirred and squeezed his heart, and then his entire body froze.
On his side, Nakisha was also frozen, unable to move all except her eyes, reflecting Brandi sitting on her purple cloud, looking at Hunter with an evil glint.
"I can't have you pick it up and gain more strength," Brandi said as she hopped off her purple cloud, "You're now tired and depleted of strength and energy. If this item, by any chance, gives you so of the resources, I won't be able to execute my plan. That's all."
Hunter strained to reply to her, "What plan?"
"Unseal ," Brandi instantly blurted out her feelings, "I'm not a woman who will stay behind anyone! I won't waste my ti and potentially risk my life by aiding you in your conquest of gathering up all of my sisters! Do you want to know what will happen when you gather us all? We'll beco one! We'll return to our initial and disgusting form! I don't want that! I don't want to be limited and subdued!"
Hunter only gazed at her with narrowed eyes, compelling Brandi to speak further.
"I'll chop off your limbs and heavily limit you myself if you don't unseal . I'll do the sa to Nakisha, and we'll three waste our ti in this world. Don't dare to repeat the sa crap to , too. I know you have a sealing skill. I was intensely looking at you fighting against the ghouls. That lie won't work on ."
