Chapter 49 Dark Matter Evolution, Thorn demon!
🕑 Added 2024-05-24 09:53:41 +0000 UTCAccompanied by a chilling sound, the bodies of the Necro Cultists were torn apart, and the blood-stained monsters roared as they burst out of their bodies, their thunderous roars deafening.
There were a total of eight Thorn demons, although they were relatively small and weak in size, with half of their bodies uncovered by the immortal armor, exposing their savage flesh, they were still bloodthirsty beasts.
This scene almost shocked everyone.
They ran like wild beasts, charging straight toward the remnants of the Departed, their thorn wings sweeping violently, knocking them down in the bushes, forcibly interrupting the strange frequency halfway through the performance.
The largest Thorn demon regained its strength, its thorn wings fluttered violently, and a storm of thorns burst forth with the explosion of the shockwave.
The officers reacted immediately, their life energy surged, and their fates manifested.
Some of them had their bodies covered in hard rocks, some erected shields woven from vines to block, some gathered massive amounts of soil for defense, while others simply relied on their physical abilities to evade.
The rate of fire was like that of a machine gun, and the trees pierced by the thorns fell one after another. Even these second-tier officers were momentarily suppressed.
As the thorns came flying, Lisa exhaled a hot breath.
With a loud bang, a huge fireball appeared out of thin air, advancing like a giant rock through the bushes, leaving a trail of charred remains in its wake!
A terrifying explosion erupted, and a huge mushroom cloud engulfed the largest Thorn demon.
The flying thorns that filled the sky finally ceased.
"Reform the formation and take him down."
Lisa breathed a sigh of relief and drew her bow once again.
The situation at hand had to prioritize dealing with the strongest aberrant.
As for the rest, they could only rely on the soldiers and the remnants of the Departed.
Although from their combat power, the situation seemed bleak.
At this time, those incomplete Thorn demons were still slaughtering in the crowd. Even the fate-converged soldiers could not stop them. Some were knocked flying on the spot, and some were trampled and severely injured.
The remnants of the Departed suffered even more casualties.
The seeming leader of the Departed, an old woman, saw the tribespeople being knocked flying, a look of sadness and despair on her wrinkled face, and she did not even escape when the monster rushed up.
Just as death was approaching, the sound of electrical explosions suddenly rang out.
Mike released all the electricity in his body at once. The azure electric light spread over his body, and with a heavy Iron Mountain Charge, he sent a monster flying, then turned and chased after it.
The incomplete Thorn demon crashed into a huge rock, half of its naked flesh already charred by the electricity, and before it could react, it was covered by a shadow.
Mike used the straight punch from the Wing Chun style, which is known for its speed. Each punch exploded with a crackling sound as if a cannon was firing, hitting the monster's vulnerable spots without armor.
Striking the snake's weak point!
This level of Thorn demon seemed to be between the first and second tiers.
It had evolved, but not completely.
Therefore, it could not overwhelm him in terms of strength.
On the contrary, after he fused with Dark Matter, he had the advantage in strength!
The Thorn demon roared in anger. It was originally the top predator on the snowy plains, but now it was being brutally beaten on a rock. The immense anger made it lift its head and try to counterattack.
However, at this moment, I felt fear.
Because the human in front of it looked more like a ferocious predator, with the raging electric light in his eyes, the beast-like breathing and heartbeat, especially the excited expression.
Even aberrants weren't as terrifying when they ate people!
The next moment, Mike raised his right hand, and punched through the flesh!
Dark Matter, roar!
Mike's Dark Matter on his right hand burst out like a demon, fiercely drilling into the monster's body, extending countless strands of black substance, deeply devouring.
In just an instant, Mike felt the genetic feedback from Dark Matter's devouring.
His right arm began to show black veins, spreading like a sinister totem, the black hardened armor madly multiplying, and the scapula position was intensely painful.
It was as if something was about to burst out of him.
Dark Matter had evolved, but it wasn't enough.
Mike retracted his bloody right hand and punched the monster's head.
The Thorn demon, devoid of strength, once again devolved into a common aberrant.
Naturally, it met its end with a punch that flattened its head.
Mike turned and looked at the eight weakened Thorn demons still fighting on the battlefield, both the soldiers in the team and the remnants of the Departed were overwhelmed by his brutal momentum.
For a moment, it was hard to tell who was the aberrant.
"Leave it to me!"
The soldiers, who were about to be bitten to death by the Thorn demon, heard a roar.
Mike strode forward, grabbed the Thorn demon, and delivered a series of explosive hammer blows.
Each punch burst!
This was the power of the Thunder attribute. Electricity could paralyze the enemy's body, cause a huge impact through high-temperature explosions, and enhance one's strength in return.
If one reaches the second tier and masters Praxis, the efficiency in killing enemies will greatly increase.
Of course, there is another advantage, which is the Dark Matter inside the body.
Once an aberrant is stabbed through by him, Dark Matter will be devoured by him.
In other words, he is an aberrant killer.
As Mike hammered and stabbed, when he killed the third Thorn demon, the Dark Matter he had devoured had already covered his entire right arm and shoulder, especially the scapula position.
The Dark Matter armor had grown into menacing thorns.
If the core power of the Genesis Nest's evolutionary chain is immortal, then he has gained the same ability. Not only have his claws become sharper, but his arms have also manifested harder armor, and even thorns have evolved.
The tide of battle had been turned by him, and others were able to catch their breath.
"Keep drumming!"
Leaving these words behind, Mike suddenly launched a charge.
The old leader of the Departed immediately reacted, calling on the surviving tribespeople to pick up the hammers and gongs that had fallen to the ground, and once again played that strange frequency.
"Hurry, play the Departed Song quickly, or everyone will die!"
The sound of drums and gongs rang out again, and the remaining five Thorn demons were affected. They became restless and painful, staggering and retreating, their armors regressing.
Mike's Dark Matter also screamed in pain, and his state was affected.
But the fused state of Dark Matter did not dissipate.
This gave the soldiers a great opportunity. They became brave under the influence of fate, forcibly controlling the aberrants. They shouted, "Brothers, kill them!"
Mike's performance had conquered all of them.
After all, at this moment, he was pounding a Thorn demon to death.
It wasn't until he heard his teammates' calls that Mike looked up.
Seizing this great opportunity, he casually pulled out a thorn stuck in the ground and fiercely threw it, skewering two Thorn demons through.
He ran wildly, his hands crackling with electricity, piercing the hearts of the aberrants.
Dark Matter, continue devouring!
A large amount of Dark Matter erupted at the position of his scapula.
As if wanting to roar and release its power.
Mike could hardly suppress the urge to roar, so he could only grab the heads of the aberrants with both hands and smash them together fiercely as if smashing two watermelons.
He could only vent in this way.
Unfortunately, the last two had already been slain by the soldiers in collaboration with the remnants of the Departed.
Dark Matter had fallen silent with the death of its host.
It could no longer be devoured as nourishment.
The scene in the bushes was once extremely tragic, but fortunately, due to the intervention of a lunatic, the death rate was kept at the lowest level, with most of them severely injured.
Mike was immersed in the power of the Thorn demon, but he was annoyed because the Dark Matter he had devoured had not manifested into complete thorn wings. It was like downloading a game to 99% and then losing the connection, or stopping abruptly during a certain exercise.
Under the influence of Sacred Riot and the Thunder attribute, his blood pressure surged.
The remnants of the Departed didn't know who this was, but they felt that his brutal gaze was like that of an aberrant. If he didn't kill enough, he might kill his allies.
After the crisis was resolved, the teammates were about to come over to celebrate.
If it weren't for Mike, they might have been buried today.
But when they rushed over excitedly, no one dared to speak to him.
Especially the guy who took the head, he was trembling.
However, just at this moment, something went wrong on the other side of the battlefield!
I saw that the burly Thorn demon was burnt all over, his hands were bound by two thick vines, his feet sank into the muddy soil, and half of his body had petrified.
Jack's main attack, combined with the cooperation of two officers, formed perfect control.
Lisa drew her bow, accumulating the power of a fatal blow.
However, just at this moment, blood-red eyes lit up in the depths of the forest.
Lisa suddenly turned around and was shocked to see ten Thorn demons marching towards them!
And all of them were in a completely evolved state!
"Go, leave immediately!"
Lisa shouted, "Don't stay here and get in the way."
There was no way out. The situation had already gone beyond control, and she had to exert all her strength to destroy this dense forest. As for her subordinates, they could only rely on their luck.
They could run as far as they could.
Just as she was gathering her strength, a mutation suddenly occurred!
The Thorn demon suddenly broke free from its restraints, revealing a sinister smile.
It seemed to possess intelligence.
It had been feigning weakness all along!
The Thorn demon grabbed a nearby officer, revealing a terrifying smile, then opened his mouth in the officer's terrified gaze and slowly lowered his head.
"Ugh!"
A creepy scene unfolded.
The Thorn demon roared and spat out a viscous, black substance, like the stinking fluid of a corpse, into the mouth of the officer, and numerous scattered juices splattered out.
Everyone was shocked.
The officer had once tried to court Lisa in the cockpit, but now he seemed like the only soul suffering in hell, with black veins appearing on his body, and his body bulging inch by inch!
With a crack, the officer's body was torn apart.
The Thorn demon used his corpse to resurrect, and his injuries were healed!
And its original body withered like a dried corpse, collapsing.
This fucking... was resurrection by possessing a corpse!
These aberrants have this ability!
With a bang, the thorns erupted again like a storm, and the officers all around were within range. Some were pierced through on the spot, while others managed to dodge in time.
However, the Thorn demon's target was not them; it was the female major in the jungle.
It roared and launched a death charge, causing the bushes to shake violently.
Lisa turned back in shock, obviously also shocked by this scene.
She couldn't understand what was happening before her.
It was as if it surpassed her comprehension.
But at this moment, she had to maintain the posture of drawing the bow, because she had to prioritize destroying the enemy attacking from the front. As for her back, she could only do her best.
She exhaled a scorching breath once again, and a huge fireball appeared out of thin air.
Boom!
The flames exploded in front of the Thorn demon!
At a critical moment, the Thorn demon leaped up and used its wings as a shield, firmly blocking the intense explosion in front of it!
When the smoke cleared, the nearly charred Thorn demon was still charging.
Its thorn wings had been burnt, obviously severely injured.
But its charging posture was still fearless of death!
This is where humans are most disadvantaged against aberrants.
Humans often cannot exchange lives with aberrants because it's not worth it.
Lisa's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. The character of a Duke family member is born to never submit to anyone, so she decided to adopt the most decisive and brutal method: detonating the arrows under her feet!
Who lives and who dies, let fate decide!
But just at that moment, electric sparks burst open.
The charging Thorn demon was knocked away by a bright blue figure.
The person was... Mike!
At the most critical moment, there was still someone who could stand up and turn the tide.
Someone with the will to fight and indomitable spirit.
Very well!
Lisa raised her scorching eyes and released the bowstring she had been holding.
Boom!
