Chapter 577 Taking the Devil Pill
Lenny had improved in his overall power, but evidently his control on Shadow runes was still very shaky.
At the same time, Elder Isiah watched the battle and frowned tightly. His eyes were on the shadow Runes that lenny had conjured out of thin air.
Elder Zod was beside him with the same frown on his face. "he has it! only one that has it can use shadow runes," Elder Zod muttered.
"Yes... he does. The mark!" Elder Isiah nodded.
Riff's Transformation was done he had become an abomination of incredible propulsions. His size had double and lenny in front of him was like a toddler challenging a heavy weight champion.
Riff had bone spikes sticking out of his body at different points. These included his elbows, shoulders, thighs and even his cheeks.
He had an inverted eye in the center of his head that shone in a low red light.
the moment the eye appeared, it looked around rapidly as if looking for prey to devour.
And then it paused as it settled on lenny.
The moment it did, Lenny felt a sharp chill run down his spine and he instantly jumped backwards.
Luckily, he did it in time too. A quick, piercing laser beam shot from the eye.
It followed his movement cutting into the mountain like hot knife through butter.
lenny frowned tightly as he continued to move and shift. "Goddamn it! The simulation of our battle had no lasers." lenny complained as he ran.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had fought Riff a thousand times within the system with him having a multitude of abilities. All of which included blades. Lasers was never in the mix.
Lenny finally stopped a long distance away.
However the smell of smoke floated into his nose.
It was only now that lenny looked below and saw that he had not really dodged the laser like he thought he did.
It had gotten his thigh. Although it did not sliced him in two like it had done the mountain, it had still been a deep cut. One that was peppered with chaos magic prevent it from healing.
"Satan System, absorb the chaos magic!" Lenny ordered.
<Sorry, but this chaos magic has mixture of specifically altered cosmic energy. Absorbing it will destroy your internal system>
"Hmmm...It would seem like I underestimated Riff a bit too much. At this rate, I might have to use that stuff..." lenny massaged his brows a little, "No! not yet. I should still have a trick or two up my sleeves... But goddamn it!"
He waved his hands on the wound on his thigh, using his white flames on the affected region, and cutting out the affected flesh to the ground.
Instantly, the injury began its healing process.
lenny steeled his resolve, "since you have decided to take a short cut to power, don't blame me for doing this!"
Lenny kicked against the ground as he rushed for Ralph.
Ralph too sped through the air as he rushed for Lenny with a frontal assault.
On getting closer, Lenny waved his hands for a punch. However, Ralph's punch hit first and it landed with a fist filled with spikes.
*BOOM!*
Lenny had luckily defended against the attack by placing his hands before his face. However, the hit sent him recoiling backwards.
*CRACK!* Lenny heard his bones crack. "That should not be!" he frowned.
This surprised Lenny because he could clearly see Riff's stats. It was true that his stats had drastically increased, even becoming more than his own. however, that did not mean that a punch should shatter his bones.
However, more barraged of fierce punches were fired rapidly.
*POW!*
*POW!*
*POW!*
*POW!*
There landed like rain on his body, and for the first time through out this battle, Lenny coughed up a mouth full of blood.
Another punch sent him spiraling
through the air and smashing into the ground like a comet.
Lenny could feel it all over his body.
It was not the impart against the ground that sponsored his pain, but the cracks in his bones.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe tried to rise from the ground, but he felt his muscles shake. A sudden realization landed on him,"Its not just my bones!"
"It would seem like you have started to feel it!" *DUM!* Riff landed a distance from him.
"Good! because it would be a pity if you didn't. My blades in this state cut at a microscopic level, encouraged by my assault on you.
Basically, the more attacks you take, the more cuts. This will continue until you are dissected down to mere dust."
Lenny tried to stand up again, but he felt himself drop.
It felt as if his body was a pile of puzzle pieces only barely holding on together.
Fortunately, his healing factor was kicking in. However, if he collected a Barrage of attacks like the last one again, he might really fall apart.
Lenny suddenly raised his hand to the sky and punched the ground.
This made blood rush out of his body.
And then he raised his head to Riff, "then lets see whose tenacity will last longer. Your anger or my madness!"
He opend his mouth as he muttered lowly, "BERSERKER!*
Even the very earth seem to understand the gravity of power that was about to be unleashed.
aggressive waves like a heavy stone dropped in a pond went out in all directions and Lenny's stats suddenly had a spike.
His eyes changed, having the veins to his pupils popping out like the roots of a tree.
Instantly, his healing factor increased and his body also became bigger. His muscles becoming very taunt like that of body bulder trying to add in an extra rep to a set.
This Lenny's ability was the evolved form of rabid dog. The moment he activated it, the sharp air around him ensured by Riff shattered.
Riff frowned, 'you annoying cockroach... he rushed forward, but what happened next encouraged Riff's regret for not killing lenny the first time he saw him...
meanwhile, Victor was having his own headache with Imperilment.
