Blood Assimilation

Chapter 134 - Possible Solution

While Randy was inwardly screaming his voice in a panic as he tried to move his body to no avail, the chimera monster had already approached him and raised its huge arm before suddenly throwing a punch at the speed that Randy could barely follow but now could not even block against it.

"BANG!"

Randy was sent flying away helplessly from the other party's punch which felt like he was hit by some metal despite his momentary enhanced physical state brought about by his now dissipating Werewolf King of Wind's form.

'Ughhhhh!!' 

Randy groaned and inwardly screamed in pain from the impact on his chest that almost shattered his chest bones.

Boom!

Not long after, he was smashed into a tree that was on the edge of the road that was constructed in the Beast Forest.

"Cough!"

A moment later, he began coughing up a mouthful of blood from his mouth. 

'Fuck! I almost died just now! Why can't I still move my body? What is going on? Is this a type of an ability attack?! Cough! Fuck! I can't stop coughing up blood!'

Randy was shocked to see his blood spilling too much today from his encounter with this chimera monster that came after him for some reason that he could still not figure out. 

But the odd part was the fact that despite being attacked by the other party, he still could not move his body and could only lay on the ground without being able to anticipate or evade the other party's next attack.

Sure enough, the chimera monster approach him once again and ruthlessly bared its claws this time and then started unleashing its continuous slash attacks.

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

Randy could not move, could not defend, he could not do anything but inwardly scream in pain and agony as the chimera monster rained down slashes that caused him immense pain that also felt oddly familiar at the same time. 

At this point, he started to recall when he was being tortured by Jeremiah and his goons and how at that time, he was also helpless to do anything.

Not to mention retaliate since he was worn out from using the training center to the extreme that day, he could only helplessly take on their punches and magic attacks afterward. 

The pain he was feeling right now at this moment was very reminiscent of that day, enough that he was now angry at the fact that despite him getting stronger compared to before, he was still helplessly being tortured by this unknown monster that came out of nowhere. 

He was angry at his pathetic self that thought he was strong enough to deal with anything just because he had awakened this unique ability to assimilate with other creatures' blood to attain their power. 

While he was thinking of these things in dejection and frustration, all of a sudden, he snapped out of these thoughts since he realized complaining or self-deprecating himself would not help with his current situation.

Right now, the situation was dire, he needed to calm down and think deeply without any thoughts of distraction.

The next moment, he then gritted his teeth and decided to bear with the pain as he quickly thought of a solution to defeat this ruthless chimera monster.

'What should I do? At this rate, I will end up dying to this chimera monster. But luckily or unluckily, this chimera monster doesn't appear to be aiming to kill me right away since the wounds being inflicted on my body were not too deep. So I still have a chance to… Fuck! It hurt! It hurts This bastard is not stopping with its attacks! Fucking bastard! I will let you suffer this pain after I find a way to defeat you!' 

Randy silently and painfully thought in his mind while inwardly gritting his teeth to endure the onslaught on his body. 

And then all of sudden, he suddenly found something strange about the current situation.

'Hold on a second, why can I still feel pain even though I couldn't move my body before? Does this ability not numb my other senses besides my bodily muscles or something? If that is the case, then, doesn't that mean I could still attack it if I could somehow use some long-range attack technique or skill that doesn't require me to move my physical body…? Do I even have a long-range attack skill or technique like that?' Randy pondered despite the pain he was suffering.

'…Ah, there was that…'

He ignored his pain and pondered for a long while before he soon quickly thought of a possible solution.

Despite his fatigued and battered body that was full of wounds that could be described as unsightly since the chimera monster kept on slashing his chest and occasionally punching a hole into his body, Randy did not care for any of that at this moment of his discovery. 

Although his current body after he awakened had natural regeneration even without his werewolf form, it was not as quick at regenerating his wound compared to the werewolf king's superior regeneration skill. 

And thus, he could not completely heal his wounds before being slashed or punched a hole into by the chimera monster's unceasing claw attacks.

But now, there was some slight hope for survival, and he was willing to bet his survival on this tiny hope that he discovered in his desperation.

… 

Meanwhile, on the other side, Sky Rise City, inside a certain luxurious hotel.

David Silvermoon was now kneeling on one knee in a subservient manner in front of a big projected screen while deeply bowing his head in earnest.

The screen showed nothing but darkness on it. However, judging by the fact that he was kneeling on one knee in front of such a big projected screen, it would seem that there was someone on the other side of that screen.

At this moment, David Silvermoon slowly raised his head and then spoke in an unusually respectful and solemn manner despite his usual arrogance: "Honorable elder, I have completed my task and it is currently dispatched to the Beast Forest in the Eastern District."

He paused for a moment before continuing in the same tone: "…But as for the performance test, I think it would be of low quality due to it being nighttime when I let it loose, and also, there was a possibility of the military intervening as there were academy students where it was dispatched. But your honor does not need to worry, I have my subordinate orchestrate everything to look like the rampage of a mutated beast, so they would not be able to discover the trace or source of the RA-001."

{Hmm… And your reason for such a decision?} 

"That… Your honor, there was an arrogant brat that pissed me off… Ahem, excuse my speech just now, what I meant to say was that there was a very disrespectful and rude young man who thought that he could look down on me even though I especially tried to approach him with kindness. And so, I intend on using him along with his classmates as test targets to see how RA-001 would perform against the renowned Sky Rise Academy students. I hope that your honor would not mind my decision." David Silvermoon explained.

{You useless idiot! What if the strong people besides the military find out about this through the witnesses or those who survive the encounter? Are you not aware of how RA-001 deal with its targets? How do you plan on dealing with such a situation in case some targets remain alive in the process?!}

The owner of the voice shouted in a displeased tone when they heard his explanation for his reckless actions.
