Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

Chapter 112: Lacking construct

Atlan pointed towards the corner where two more soldiers came with their batons ready to electrocute delinquents. They almost got caught. Thankfully, Atlan saw them with his Thermal Vision and stopped Yasmine from showing herself in the street.

Yasmine held her breath as Atlan held her mouth. They stayed in close proximity until the two soldiers turned the corner and disappeared.

"That was close," Atlan muttered. He looked at her with a worried expression.

"Are you okay?" Atlan could practically see her heart beating out of her chest. He didn't think that she would be this nervous about almost getting caught by the soldiers. The punishment for this crime must be harsher than I thought.

Of course, the reason why she was nervous was because of him. This was not the first time she had someone close to her body because she frequently practiced wrestling and other sports. But this was the first time it felt too close. Their sweat was practically mixing!

She quickly pulled herself away from him. She ran forward without even looking back, leaving Atlan confused as to what he did wrong.

The Specialist Saviors all floated over the body of the colossal Humanoid Wolf. It struggled to get up and crawl away from the humans.

Now that the other four were unburdened by the weight of the construct, they finally joined the fight. But it seemed that the fight was already over before they could even have the chance to show their strength.

"I was all worked up for nothing!"

"Just when the soldiers finally herded the delinquent kids, I thought we'd finally get the opportunity to practice."

"I almost want these kids to start another party again so that we can come and kill some Canzers. Having a ban on Pocket Remediums is making me itch!"

They all looked over to their leader and saw that she was looking down at the colossal Canzer with a serious expression. They thought that she'd be celebrating this easy win by now. Instead, she kept a hard grip on her one-handed sword with an intensity she only reserved for missions.

"Ninth? Is something wrong?"

Ninth, the leader of the Specialist Saviors, didn't take her eyes off the Canzer as she replied to her team.

"Look at its shoulders."

The colossal Canzer had a gaping wound on its back from its right shoulder down to its waist. The laceration was so deep that they could see the creature's spine from up above. They didn't see anything wrong with it.

"Are we supposed to see something?"

But Ninth saw something. "That wound was longer."

It was only when they floated down and got a closer look did they finally see the problem.

There was a small stream of brown liquid flowing from the ground and trickling up the shoulders of the giant Canzer. These droplets got absorbed by the Humanoid Wolf's injuries and slowly replenished its destroyed flesh.

It was slow and it wasn't enough for the Canzer to recover to its full strength any time soon, but the fact that it was still regenerating was very disconcerting for all of them.

This wasn't their first time dealing with Destruction Canzers. They knew that once the Operator's construct was launched, then the monster's regeneration capabilities were completely disabled.

But this particular colossal Humanoid Wolf was still clearly healing its injuries! This shouldn't happen at all!

"But how?!"

"The construct is still embedded into its chest. It shouldn't be regenerating!"

"Ninth, what's happening?"

The leader of the Specialist Saviors took a deep breath.

"The Operators made a mistake. The construct is missing something."

"Oh my gods!"

"What's been happening with the Quills lately? They seem to be messing up more often than not."

Ninth held her hand up and stopped the slander. She knew that the Operators had no malicious intent with their mistakes. Weird things had been happening ever since that solar event, and even the top Operators had no idea why this was happening. And blaming them for their shortcomings won't stop the problems.

"They didn't have time to prepare properly," Ninth explained. "HeadQuarters rushed this mission because there are kids trapped here that need our help."

"But still…how are we going to kill this Canzer if it keeps regenerating?"

Ninth took a deep breath and answered. "We keep killing it. Tell the soldiers that they need to inform HeadQuarters about this. We need the Operators to solve this fast."

Just then, they suddenly saw the buildings around them shake.

'AWOOO!'

Surprisingly enough, the colossal Canzer regained enough strength to finally stand up by itself. It buried its claws onto the walls and used it to prop itself up. Its entire body was shaking as it forced itself to keep its back straight and howl at the black moon.

"Damn. It recovered."

"Ninth, permission to go all out?"

The leader shook her head. She could feel that there were still some kids hiding around the buildings trying to evade capture. Unleashing all of their powers would surely destroy the city even more and bury the unfortunate kids under tons and tons of rubble.

They can't use their real strength.

Using a fraction of their power was already a disadvantage by itself but it seemed that the Canzer gave itself an even bigger advantage to top it all off.

"Umm…guys? You have to look at this."

Slowly but surely, they all saw the Canzer grow larger as more and more brown liquid flowed up its body.

It was gaining more and more strength as the time passed.

"We have to kill it now before it gets any bigger!"

"Let's just go all out! Those kids are delinquents anyway. They deserve to lose their SoulTime."

Ninth held on to her sword as she tried to think up a solution to stop this Canzer from getting any bigger. She could feel it. It was getting stronger and stronger by the second, slowly catching up to their collective strength.

She had no choice. She had to break protocol and command her team to let loose before things got too dangerous.

But just then, out of the corner of everyone's eyes, they suddenly saw a thin line appear in the sky and headed straight towards the Canzer. Ninth enhanced her eyes and looked at what it was.

Her eyes widened. It was a silver projectile.
