Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Chapter 35 35: From Bad To Worse

?Getting off the floor, Corey dashed to the intersection without haste.

Behind him Mat who was looking forward to beating the shit out of Corey had a stunned expression seeing Corey run immediately.

"Come back here and face me like a man you bastard!

Stop running like a coward!"

Mat taunted Corey and chased after him with a murderous expression.

There was no way he was going to let Corey escape after all that Corey said to him.

He wanted to skin him alive.

Meanwhile the head of the bizarre creature looked at Corey before it also moved like lightning towards Corey.

Corey who was running heard Mat's taunts but he obviously ignored them, he would be a fool if he dared to fight or even stay a second in that hell hole.

Just as he was running with full speed towards the intersection, he felt something coming at an extremely fast speed towards him.

He looked back slightly and his eyes widened when he saw the head of the bizarre creature moving towards him like lightning.

'Shit.'

'Focus'

Time slowed down in Corey's eyes as he used Focus, he turned his head back and his mind which was in overdrive worked quickly to think of how to survive his current situation.

He knew that he would not be able to reach the intersection before the creature's head got to him and he had only ten seconds to think of a way to survive in his Focused state.

A second went and his brain which was in overdrive thought of a method to lengthen his time of survival.

"Add all free attribute points to agility."

Corey spoke so fast that he spent half a second to finish his sentence.

In the next half second, his agility increased from 140 to 212 while his free attribute points decreased from 72 to 0.

"What?"

Mat was baffled when he saw Corey's massive increase in speed. He was not the only one that was shocked, Mac, Kyle and even the creature were baffled.

Although they were stunned, in the next second they regained their composure and Mat increased his speed while chasing after Corey.

The creature also increased it's speed that despite Corey's increase in speed, it was rapidly closing the gap between them.

In the next three seconds Corey was only a meter from the intersection and the head was only a meter from Corey.

Corey could feel the sensation of death so close to him but in his focused state, he was calm.

Noticing he was only a meter from the intersection, he swerved to the left slightly and the head followed, then just when the head thought it would get another meal, Corey abruptly swerved to the right performing a perfect feint like the best player in soccer.

The head tried to turn to the right but since Corey's turn was so sudden, it could not perfectly turn and eventually slammed itself into the wall once again causing rubbles to fly everywhere.

Corey quickly ended his focused state after he temporarily immobilized the head of the bizarre creature.

Been in his focused state was the only way he could react to the creature and if possible he didn't want to use his stamina to enter Focus and he definitely did not want to use his health to enter Focus.

He looked at his status window very quickly as he kept on running and saw that he only had 40 units of mana left which meant he only 4 seconds to stay in a focused state.

Realizing that, he closed his status window and quickened his pace ignoring the shouts and taunts of Mat behind him.

Meanwhile Mac and Kyle looked at the intersection where the head of creature lay and also where Mat and Corey had disappeared to.

A second of silence passed before Kyle spoke.

"Follow your brother."

Mac had a surprised expression and his surprise even showed in his tone as he spoke.

"Are you sure? Mat is level 67 and he's definitely not weak. I don't think Corey can cause any kind of harm to him."

Kyle looked at the spot where the creature's head was for a few seconds before he spoke.

"Zane is stronger than we thought. Also his speed, response and intuition are high.

He already sensed that there was something dangerous in that room before we reached the room.

Also, Zane is faster than your brother and he must not escape. If he escapes and warns the other group of survivors or any other survivor then we would not be able to do this again."

Kyle explained, allowing Mac to understand Kyle's reason for telling him to go after his brother.

Without replying Kyle, his body swayed then he ran, leaving behind afterimages as he reached the intersection and then he finally disappeared from Kyle's view.

Seeing Mac leave, Kyle sighed softly a few seconds later then he spoke.

"Get up and come."

The moment Kyle said those words, the head of the creature rose up from the rubbles and swayed slightly, like it was feeling dizzy.

A few seconds later it's neck shortened until it's head was in front of Kyle in a submissive manner.

"Spit them out."

Kyle said and a few seconds later the head spat out several soul stones on the floor.

This were the soul stones of some survivors of the survivor group that was just slaughtered.

Kyle looked at the soul stones and when he saw the saliva and disgusting liquid on the soul stones he frowned.

He pointed at the soul stones and a drop of water formed from his finger tip dropping unto soul stones.

Just as it dropped, the water increased and formed a ball of water which swallowed the soul stones and the disgusting liquid together.

A few seconds later the ball of water disappeared leaving behind clean soul stones.

Kyle seeing the clean soul stones no longer had a frown. He turned towards the head and spoke.

"Go after Zane but this time, use your entire body."

The head nodded after hearing Kyle's words then it's neck retracted into the room where it's body was.

The neck regained it's normal length and it's hands which were holding the lower part of his neck removed.

It's body turned sideways and it pressed it's hand on the floor, using it to lift itself up and if Corey were here to see the creature standing, he would be totally shocked and stunned because the creature was extremely huge.

It's head almost reached the ceiling of the room and with it's outstretched wings just made the creature more fear inducing.

"Hihihihihi."

One would expect the creature to roar but no it did not, it giggled with the voice of a little girl which would definitely spook Corey despite his recent experiences.

The creature moved towards the door of the room which was a lot smaller than it since it was made for humans but the monster not caring about that just walked through the door and broke the wall on top of the door causing rubbles to fall.

It walked towards the intersection and walked to the right side of it, wanting to accomplish it's master's task which he gave it.

Kyle looked at the intersection where Corey, Mat, Mac and the creature had disappeared for a few seconds before he bent and picked one of the soul stones.

"Mat, Mac and the chimera went after Zane so he should have no chance of surviving." Kyle paused then frowned, he looked at the intersection once again and his frown deepened.

"I hope those guys don't mess up or I might need to take action and kill Zane myself even if I don't want to."

Kyle muttered as he looked at the soul stone which was turning to dust. The long lost feeling of his stats increasing made a smile to form on his face.

"Human soul stone is really the best way to increase one's attributes." Kyle muttered then continued to absorb the remaining soul stones.

Meanwhile Corey's situation had just turned from bad to worse with him having to face three deadly opponents.

Would Corey be able to survive?

[A/N: IMPORTANT INFO, DON'T SKIP. IT'S LONG BUT STILL DON'T SKIP

I'm sorry that I didn't post yesterday but there was a reason for that.

I fell ill yesterday.

I had headache, body pain, cough, catarrh and cold and because of that I could not write anything yesterday.

I took some drugs and those drugs made me sleep throughout yesterday.

I didn't like the fact that I did not publish a chapter yesterday and since I'm feeling better at the moment, I decided to write and also explain the reason for not writing yesterday.

I'll try to write another chapter but I won't overwork myself so that I don't become worse.

NOW THERE ARE TWO IMPORTANT INFO I'M GOING TO DROP

FIRST: I just signed an exclusive contract with Webnovel today, so very soon you would be able to vote using golden tickets and drop gifts for my book.

NOW, because of that, I'm going to increase the power stone requirement for bonus chapters.

PLEASE NOTE: I'm not increasing it because I don't want to release bonus chapters.

I'm increasing it because I want to start writing down the privileged chapters so that when it's time to go privilege, I won't waste time writing it and would release the entire privileged chapters at once.

I plan on making the number of privileged chapters 30 or at least 25 by the way.

Now the POWER STONE TARGET IS for every 30 POWER STONES, I will RELEASE 1 BONUS CHAPTER. Which means:

30 P.S= 1 BONUS CHAPTER

60 P.S= 2 BONUS CHAPTERS

90 P.S = 3 BONUS CHAPTERS

Some of y'all might say I'm being too greedy and I increased way too much from 10 to 30 but one thing you should know is that my power stone target is low. There are some new novels that will request for a 100 power stones for one bonus chapter so you should know that I've actually been setting my requirements really really low.

ANOTHER THING which I have to say is that yesterday I was TRULY DISAPPOINTED when I saw the number of power stones I received.

The number of collections increased so much yesterday but my power stones didn't increase that much.

I have 85 collections now but only 8 power stones, not even up to 10... TEN!!!

I know that at least 20 people read my book everyday but only few vote and I must say I expected more.

All I'm asking for is power stone at this moment. Webnovel gives out free power stones and if 20 people receive at least 2 power stones then that's 40 power stones.

You know what I'm not going to talk too much anymore. Just drop those power stones and make it reach up to 30 and I will give you your bonus chapters.

You guys can do it and I believe in you.

SO DROP THOSE DAMN POWER STONES!!
