Chapter 114 Harvesting A Mutagenic Organ
Chapter 114 Harvesting A Mutagenic Organ
"Just what sort of beast was that?" the pores near his heart opened, forming suction forces that sucked in the surrounding nuclear energy.
The beast could alter its appearance, blending incredibly close to its surrounding with its camouflage. It was only an enhanced beast and its ability was already overpowered. Erian couldn't imagine how strong the ability would be if the beast developed the gene to a supergene. It could stand extremely close to him and he wouldn't still be able to sense it!
This piqued Erian's interest. If he could transplant this supergene along with his super gene, he would be one of the deadliest assassins alive. But it was only an enhanced beast, not a super beast. And since its height is above ten meters, it's considered to be Colossal.
BANG!
A loud crash echoed from outside the building, grabbing Erian's attention. He immediately halted the activation of his nuclear technique. At this point, his body had gained a slight amount of weight and the energy within his cells had regenerated.
Erian's eyes flashed, golden stars swirled within them as his nuclear pulse glowed softly. Suddenly, the sky seem to darken and the wind swirled, forming a tornado.
Blinding lightning flashed in the sky and the air hummed, rippling intensely as a single peal of golden thunderclap ripped through the fabric of space, slamming explosively into the three-storey building Erian was in.
The force instantly shattered the entire building and everything within a hundred-meter radius was wiped out. The shockwave blasting everything and anything into smithereens. Dust rose into the sky like clouds, covering everything within a thousand meters in a heavy dust fog!
"Roooar!!!" Soundwaves rippled from his mouth as Erian felt his body grimes in mid-air with the consumption of nuclear energy.
His body inflated rapidly as his cells massively produced billions of cells that expanded rapidly like a balloon
In the blink of an eye, Erian's body formed and expanded swiftly until he became a ten meters tall abomination. Crazy muscles and tissue bulging out like the statue of a dignified greek God!
Erian didn't stop to examine his streamlined muscles nor did he admire the destruction of his transformation. The instant he morphed, he stomped his feet heavily to the ground and in that instant, the land within half a kilometer radius shattered and the surrounding stores, houses, and skyscrapers collapsed like dominoes!
"kadoom!!!"
The atmosphere imploded and a massive figure flew backward like a broken kite, felling several side road trees and crushing abandoned vehicles before slamming into a nearby skyscraper. The shockwaves instantly shattered the glass windowed 50 stories high.
Erian's dark hair swing along with the wind as every step of his created a deep imprint on the ground that shook the surroundings.
With another loud thud, he bounced off the ground like an elastic ball, leaping the distance of over a hundred meters. He was about to land when he held his fist together and hammered downward at the recovering Colossal.
"KABOOM!!!"
Like the wind creating a tidal wave in an ocean, the earth quaked violently! The land shattered as it moved like waves and in that instant, the skyscraper rapidly crumbled like a scattered pieces of a puzzle. Fragments of concrete shot out like bullets in all directions. Metal dust and sand rose to the sky, creating a brownish cloud that enveloped the radius of a kilometer.
It took a while for the dust to settle, unmasking the change in terrain and the current situation. Erian's massive figure stood above a gigantic hole that buried another massive figure within.
The head of the colossal had been smashed in, bleeding profusely with dark red blood. The body of the beast wriggled from reflex, blinking inconsistently, sometimes turning invincible and sometimes coming back into being.
A grunt of dissatisfaction escaped Erian's lips, releasing hot steam of evaporated gas into the air. Be had expected a long and satisfying fight and was even prepared to release a few of his techniques in the battle. But he didn't think the beast would be this weak. Not able to withstand one of his punches.
With a harrumph, his hands tore into the belly of the beast as he searched through the corpse for something. First, he removed the 100cm, wide heart. Blood spurted out on his body like a tap. Erian tossed it aside as this wasn't what he was looking for. Undoubtedly, this heart is worth thousands of blood points if sold to the academy. But Erian proceed to ignore it as it would only take up more space.
The most valuable part of a Colossal is its Supergene but this beast was only an enhanced beast, therefore, it hadn't developed its supercell yet even then, some enhanced beasts possess Mutagenic organs which is the sole reason for their ability.
Erian's eyes lit up and the squelching sound of his hands moving through organs stopped. He drew out his hands, bringing out a small organ shaped like a starfish with numerous connected veins that spilled out fluids from its mouth.
Quickly exiting his titan form, he placed the organ into his backpack. The cooling system of the backpack immediately activated, freezing the organ to preserve it. As for the remains of the beast, Erian absorbed its nuclear energy which was surprisingly much, and then turned to leave.
He didn't transform its body into points but instead chose to leave immediately after he was done. With his enhanced senses, he could see that he was alone for the entire kilometer radius, but the feeling of being watched didn't seize his heart.
"Might be a supervisor from the institute," Erian mumbled softly, walking down the ruined street with his backpack in hqnd. The night was coming and it was the most dangerous part of the day. Therefore, it was better to find a place to settle down for the night.
Inspecting the leaderboard, he noticed his position was surprisingly No 11 which is below the top ten.
He was baffled! Considering the fact that he just battled and eliminated seven titans and an Enhanced Colossal, he should have been at the top 3. Surprisingly, there were ten people who had done better than him within this short period.
