Multi-Gene

Chapter 538 - Forced Tactical Retreat

"Who are you, people?" David proceeded to ask, his flickering as he calculated in his head.

All of a sudden, he noticed another four of those strange looking men appear behind the first two strange looking men. He couldn't even tell what their strength and weakness were. To him they were just as plain looking as the trees and weeds around him.

Abruptly, a weird scream erupted from their lips and their eyes glowed red with black gaseous substance emanating from within their bodies like a lich.

In that instant, they jumped and attacked David. Their speed was so fast or almost caught David off guard.

BANG! BANG!! BANG!!!

Multiple explosions erupted as the eight people jumped at him unexpectedly like a maniac, attacking him from different directions. 

David's expression hardened and he immediately took a step forwards, managing to squeeze through the gap between them before it closed. 

As their attacks landed, the trees around them exploded into multiple pieces and the space within a kilometer radius vibrated, creating shockwaves that rode through the wind like a tsunami! 

David's eyes opened wide in shock. "Hexa-gene Phaser strength?" They all had the strength of one that had merged with 6 genes which was weird since there were six of them that appeared out of no where.

They could probably be one of the members of the Nine Family parties. 

"Why are you guys attacking me?" David wasn't too startled by their appearance, since there were various genes out there. 

But then, he was starting to feel that something was wrong since they weren't saying anything and just phased in to attack him. 

Numerous blasting sound rang out as the six people attacked again and again, but David appeared to be faster than them by a hair breadth. 

Suddenly, David's muscles vibrated rapidly and then numerous after imaged appeared around him, with them slamming their fists against the chest of the six. 

In an instant, time seem to pause and the moving six figures halted their movements and their expression stuck in one place. 

Rumble! 

Massive six shockwaves erupted from the backs of the six figures as their two hearts exploded into meat paste. 

His after images faded and David appeared before them with his hands slowly unclenching. Since they didn't want to tell him anything and insisted on attacking him, naturally David wouldn't show mercy and ended their lives. 

But as he had just taken his third step, he froze and he felt the wind behind him change. Rapidly, he left six afterimages as he dodged from the left to right to the centre. 

As he reiterated backwards, he was shocked to see that it was the six people he thought he had killed earlier. But now, they were alive and well, as though his attack hadn't meant anything. 

But David was sure he had exploded their both hearts and they shouldn't have been able to survive even if their hearts were placed where their kidney was.

"What is happening?"David muttered and he gazed even more intently at their features before he came to a conclusion.

"Zombies?" without hesitation, he faded into numerous after images as he aimed his fist at their head.

Three bang sounds resounded together to form a loud Booming sound that echoed through the forest.

Their head were even harder than iron steel, but under David's fist, they exploded like they were made of clay.

Black and dull greenish liquid spilt to the ground with think finger-sized maggots crawling and squirming around the ground within the disgusting fluid.

With a serious expression, David glanced intently at the six bodies that had fallen to the ground. He thought for a while figured he needed to keep a low profile in order not to attract any other monster.

But as he was about to leave, his expression changed slightly and gradually, they got darker and darker as he checked his surroundings until finally, he looked as though he was about to cry.

He had been surrounded. Their energy waves were so similar to the forests David couldn't tell them apart.

And right now, he was surrounded by at least twenty to thirty hexa-gene Phaser zombies! And they didn't seem to be dwindling, Instead, they were increasing! 

In another few seconds, they had reached forty in numbers. "Just how many of these monsters are out there?"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! 

David rapidly slammed his fist outwards, leaving multiple after images that rocked the surrounding space like a typhoon. 

But as he blasts a hole through their skills one by one, their numbers weren't dwindling like one would have expected, they were increasing instead as they roared monstrously at David like a maddened beast. 

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! 

His fist moved rapidly like a piston as he started to retreat away from the place, but they seem to show up from every angle. 

"I need to escape before they bury me here with their numbers." David said win gritted teeth. 

Suddenly, he stomped his feet to the ground and a powerful wave of power erupted from within him, slamming into the ground and his surrounding like a cyclone. 

BANG! 

Everything within half a kilometer radius was blasted backwards and David was finally free to move around. 

Immediately, he rotated his blood fierce, overtaking gravity as he floated slightly. 

BANG! 

His feet slammed heavily on the ground, letting it cave in almost a hundred meter deep, creating a well in the process. 

With the stump, David was propelled forwards with an astonishing speed as he broke through several air barriers, alamaot reaching Mach 4 with just the speed of his body. 

The hexa-gene Phaser pursued him intently as though he had killed their family members. The light in their eyes glaring as they wished to have a piece of David's succulent flesh and blood. 

But in just a few seconds, David had lost them as he flew in the horizon. 

BANG! 

The ground exploded as multiple cracks expanded continuously and didn't even stop as they crawled up to a mountain edge, before they stabilized and didn't manage to explode in the process.
