All-in-One System: All I Need is Erotic Coins

Chapter 129 A Tough Fight

"What did you say?"

Damian was not worried about the minor cut, but if what the colonel said was true, then the poison might be a problem. It was unknown to Damian if he had any poison resistance, which could possibly be how he died!

It was a lame one. The death he had in mind was one during a fierce fight, something incredible people would still comment on after years to come, not a death by a poisonous knife!

The colonel made no move, only waiting for the poison to take effect, and once it did, pain spread throughout Damian's body, starting from the cut on his cheek.

"Agggr, bloody hell," Damian cursed when he felt the pain course through his body.

An unpleasant feeling, one that was akin to torture, and when Damian felt that, he was almost certain death was near for him. But then a warmth spread within, coming from his heart!

After every heartbeat, the warmth would spread further, fighting against the poison inside Damian's body, and seeing how the pain was reduced, it was winning.

The only explanation for that event was his bloodline — Damian felt something similar when he unlocked it by jumping inside the blood pool.

Another minute passed, and by that point, Damian should be dead. The colonel was sure of that, so after seeing his opponent standing, looking healthier by the second, he knew something was wrong.

"How? The poison should be all over your body, melting you inside!"

The idea of dying like that made Damian even more grateful for having his giant bloodline save his ass in the moment of need.

"Maybe you used the wrong poison? It can happen, even with the best," Damian said, shrugging his shoulders.

"This is impossible! I am made of poison," the colonel said.

He lost his patience and attacked again before Damian fully recovered, but this time, it was not a knife attack but a long-ranged one! The skin of his left arm fell on the ground, like a snake changing skin, and his arm changed to a freaking snake!

The snake opened its mouth, shooting a green liquid toward Damian, who had a disgusted face after witnessing that scene, dodging by a small fraction, almost getting hit by the liquid.

Damian looked down where the liquid hit, and the ground melted within seconds. 'Acid?'

That poison looked worse than the one in the knife's blade, and Damian was glad he had enough reflexes to avoid the attack, or else his face would have been gone by that point.

If the fight continued with only Damian's adversary attacking, it would not end well for him, so the time of retaliation arrived.

A black substance started pouring out from the ring on his finger, covering his entire body, acting like armor made by a living being!

Damian's face could not be seen anymore, and the slime drew a terrifying smile and eyes on his face. He looked like a demon or an alien creature from a movie, but it gave goosebumps to anyone who saw it!

"What the fuck is this?" the colonel said.

Damian looked way different than a human would, and even the colonel, who had seen many things during his life, shivered at the sight of Damian. It was sinister.

The creepy look of Damian was more than enough to create an opening, and with his attributes recently increased by the giant bloodline and the serum, Damian dashed toward him as fast as he could, looking like a shadow.

He hit the colonel right in the face, making his nose bleed after the punch, and his body was sent flying toward the nearby building.

"What was that?"

The impact of the colonel's body hitting the building was so great that a few tiles broke, and Magnus, Aurora, and Ashley, who were inside the building, could see and feel it tremble.

But despite the powerful attack, it was not enough to deal with Damian's adversary, who left the hole in the building's walls looking even angrier than before.

"This is not enough to end me," the colonel said. His eyes turned green, and his pupils changed to that of a snake. That man's ability was strange, and it was more like he was a snake that could turn into a human!

His body shifted once again, just like his left arm, but this time, both legs turned into a half-snake body, turning it like a tail. The thing before, Damian was not looking human anymore, but more like a beast from the dungeon!

The last part that changed was the colonel's head, which turned into a snake head! The only human part was his torso and right arm. All the rest was that of a gigantic snake.

It looked disgusting, and Damian could feel the power of the colonel increasing with each second. There was a good part in all that: he seemed to have lost his mind after the transformation!

Of course, the colonel was not wholly dumb or unable to think during combat, but it was more like an instinct, meaning Damian had a chance to exploit that!

That was if he had any time to think about a plan! Right after the transformation, the colonel crawled toward him at an astonishing speed, and before long, it was right before Damian, attacking him using its left arm, which was a snake!

The hit was so fast it was nearly impossible to dodge in that circumstance, and Damian flew into the staircase, creating a massive hole in the ground, soaking all the damage using his back.

"Aggrr, it hurts," Damian cursed, placing his hand on his damaged back.

It was not looking good for him because Damian's advantage in power before the transformation was not there anymore. The fight changed sides, and winning in one-versus-one combat would be hard.

Damian got up, yet the colonel was near him again, but this time, it attacked him using the knife, piercing it through his stomach! A clean cut and it even hit a vital point.

The slime armor had been destroyed after the last attack, meaning Damian was unprotected!

"Damian!"

Aurora came out from the building, screaming as she saw Damian on the ground, all hurt. They had found a way to leave the island and returned to bring Damian back, but the situation was not good!

Magnus, Aurora, and Ashley exchanged glances, and without saying a word, they knew they had to work together to defeat the colonel and help Damian before it was too late!

The first one to go was Magnus, who activated his ability, the Ancient Primal Body, doubling the size of his body and muscles! It increased all of his body attributes, which were extraordinary already, and it also boosted his senses, and his reflexes, turning him into a killing machine!

His appearance fitted well with the more rustic environment, as Magnus looked like a man who lived in the wilderness, a primal man, just like his ability.

The colonel turned around to clash with Magnus, attacking him using his left arm, which was a snake! It targeted Magnus' neck, but he dodged the attack mid-air as he jumped in an impossible move, twisting his body and kicking the colonel on the cheek.

It was a powerful attack that even sent a strong wind at their surrounding, yet it was not enough to make the colonel move, and he counter-attacked again, and that time, Magnus could not dodge.

He was sent flying toward Aurora, who had a shocked face, not believing someone as powerful as Magnus and Damian could not take down that man!

She had copied Magnus' ability, so her power was at a similar level to Magnus, slightly lower, so Aurora did not believe she could take that snake-man down.

"What should we do?" Aurora said to Ashley, who also had no idea.

At that moment, a strange smell entered their nostrils, and a man wearing a loincloth appeared carrying a censer. It was the two shaman brothers, and one used its ability to suppress the colonel!

The colonel's body changed to its original form, that of a human, and he could not understand what was happening!

"What did you do to my ability?" he cursed.

But before he could say anything else, a black spear flew, piercing him right through the heart. It was Damian, returning all the damage he had caused to him during their fight.

Despite the win, he was not feeling happy about it, but Damian only won with the help of others, which hit his pride.

'I have a system, a bloodline, and more than one ability, yet I almost lost. It is time to start training more!' Damian thought.

Aurora ran toward Damian to help him move as he was stumbling.

"Are you okay? This cut is nasty," Aurora said, looking at the knife stuck in Damian's belly.

"It's okay," Damian said, pulling the knife without a flinch.

The wound was indeed nasty, but he was already feeling a warm sensation as his giant bloodline was acting to heal it.

"We found a submarine, and surprisingly, Magnus knows how to drive it," Aurora said.

As the two talked, one of the shamans moved toward Ashley and said, "We looked for that man called Creed, yet nothing indicates he was here. I believe they either moved him to another base or he escaped. I am sorry."

Damian heard it from afar, and he was also starting to believe something was off with that Creed, 'is there something I am missing here?'
