Chapter 105: Why destroy?
Chapter 105: Why destroy?
Atlan looked at the colossal Canzer in the distance. He witnessed how it got bigger and stronger with each death it experienced. He saw a constant flow of brown liquid flowing towards the Canzer even though it hadn't experienced any injury as of yet.
Everyone was already too terrified to look at the Canzer. They didn't notice that it was still getting bigger and bigger through the constant flow of brown liquid that flowed from the buildings. Perhaps, it was for the best. If they knew it was still getting stronger, their will to survive would disappear.
Atlan was the only one who witnessed everything and still felt a sense of calm.
Even though he saw how easily Razer got disposed of, he never lost hope. Even if it was apparent that this was not an enemy that they could defeat. It was far too strong and it was still getting stronger each second.
He could see himself injuring the colossal Canzer with his SSS class LifeSkills. Using a combination of his sniping ability 'Apocalyptic Hellfire' and his 'Grim Reaper Physique', he could at least hurt the Canzer from afar. And if it got close, Atlan would use his 'Angel Wings' mutation to run away.

He couldn't get caught by those claws. Even with his enhanced durability, he knew that he wouldn't last a second if he was slashed by those claws.
But as much as he tried to think up of a way to hurt tbe Canzer, he would only end up delaying the inevitable. It could regenerate all of its injuries endlessly, while he would be exhausted just an hour into the fight.
I can't fight it. I need to find a way to survive.
Thankfully, he still had a trump card under his sleeve for when things truly got too dire.
His 3rd stage Student DPS LifeSkill: Cherubic Retribution was derived from Angel Power, and from his brief experience in dealing with Canzers, they all seemed to have an aversion to everything Angel related. This LifeSkill could perhaps be the solution he would need to survive that colossal monster.
Just then, he suddenly saw the colossal humanoid wolf disappear into a blur. He immediately activated his Thermal Vision and saw the cold blue streak left behind by the Canzer, leading his eyes to where it went.
He followed the streaks and it headed straight towards two Saviors trying to run away. They stumbled through the streets, hoping that they would run far enough into safety.
He saw their body heat signatures and immediately knew that these two were inadequate to deal with a threat like the colossal Canzer. The inside of their bodies were a dim yellow, meaning that they were already too exhausted to use their LifeSkills to defend themselves.
And within a split second, Atlan suddenly saw their heat signatures disappear. It was replaced by a gigantic foot as cold as ice.
Atlan barely even saw a blur.
Just like that they turned into a pool of blood and mush.
[You have reaped the death of a Sentient Being: Human] x2
[Due to your trait, you have multiplied your experience by 10]
[You have received 1,000 experience]
This was not the first time Atlan saw human death; there was plenty of it back in the Unclaimed Lands. But this was the first time he saw something so bloody. Most deaths he saw were from malnutrition and dehydration; they looked like they just went to sleep.
Strangely enough, Atlan didn't feel sorry for them.
They died so fast—too quick for them to even register the fact that they died.
They didn't suffer.
"Oh Gods! Look what they turned into!"
"I don't want to be like that! I don't want to lose my SoulTime!"
"It's fine…it's fine…Angels will save them. We just need to return their blood back to the church and they can recuperate! In fact, I think they have it easy, they don't have to suffer in this hell…"
Atlan didn't let go of his gaze at the Canzer. He was the only one who knew that death meant death. There was no going back.

Yasmine gritted her teeth and looked at Sola. "We can't let it go rampant. We'll have to work together to kill it."
"Didn't you hear me? We can't!"
"Are you giving up?! I'm not! I will fight till the end of my SoulTime."
And just like she said, Yasmine launched flaming dragons after flaming dragons. These physical manifestations of her LifeSkill soared through the air and hit the colossal Canzer's legs, barely burning one of its furs.
But she didn't care. She kept swinging her sword endlessly without a break. Her sword glowed bright red from the constant heat that the dragons emanated. Even when her right hand turned too exhausted to even lift her sword, she simply used her left and continued launching attack after attack.
She was relentless, yet no matter how much she tried, the colossal monster treated her as nothing more than air.
This frustrated her competitive blood to no end.

Atlan surveyed the whole surroundings with his SR class Thermal Vision.
It was easy to keep an eye on the Colossal canzer as its dark blue internal body temperature contrasted well with the white background of the Remedium. His Angel Wings was ready to spring out as soon as he saw the Canzer run towards him.
But just then, out of the corner of his eyes, he saw something he shouldn't have.
Out in the distance, he saw a couple of blue heat signatures. They weren't human.
And upon closer inspection, Atlan noticed that these were Pseudo Canzers!
I thought they all died and merged into the giant Humanoid Wolf?
Not only that, these Pseudo Canzers seemed to be pushing something away from the fight. Atlan ran atop the buildings from roof to roof until he landed on a building directly on top of the Centaur monsters. They didn't notice anything strange and kept hauling something behind them.
Atlan squinted his eyes and recognized what they were pushing. It was a chariot!
Not only that, it was Yasmine's chariot.
Why are they doing this?
Through his enhanced senses, he realized that these unintelligent Pseudo Canzers were reciting something under their breaths. He closed his eyes and ignored all the sounds of glass breaking and concrete turning into rubble all around the Pocket Remedium.
'Destroy…chariot….destroy…'
Atlan didn't know why they chose to destroy chariots right in the middle of all the chaos. Back then, they kept repeating, 'they long to belong', which Atlan found out to mean that they wanted to become part of the colossal Humanoid Wolf. But these words didn't make any sense.
Why do they want to destroy Yasmine's silver chariot?
