Chapter 26: 26. The supermarket (8 - End): Rewards

In front of Leo, Dexter's body was now atop a pool of blood and he could see two red dot marks on Dexter's palm along with the black, sharp, elongated fingernails.

Something even stranger occured. The blood on the ground, the blood of the bee, was being absorbed into Dexter's skin, nails, and any part of his body which was in contact with the blood.

And he was confused.

"What?" Leo furrowed his brows in confusion as he saw the little holes at the back of Dexter's palm suddenly heal and the claws reverted back to the normal human fingernails.

'That hand.' Leo remembered that Dexter has been hiding that hand ever since they fought the horde of bees on the roof of that building.

"Is he ok?" Laurence asked as he walked weakly towards Leo and Leo then went towards Dexter and checked his breathing.

"Yup. He's breathing." Leo then carried Dexter on his shoulder and took him back to the truck.

...

After the bee was struck by Dexter, it fell sideways and a small hill made with a golden gooey substance was there, and it had the eggs of the creature in it.

"So should we destroy it?" Chapman asked and Johnny already brought their bag and pulled out a grenade from it.

"Wait." Laurence said as he walked towards the gooey stuff.

He touched the surface and after confirming that it didn't hurt, he thrusted his hand into the liquid and grabbed an egg before pulling it out.

The fist sized golden egg in his hand was the biggest he has ever seen. Even eggs of hawks or eagles couldn't compare to the size of this one.

'What?' To his shock, golden words began forming above the egg.

[Mutilator egg (evolved species): Born by an evolved bee. The mutilator would grow up to be ten times stronger and faster than its predecessor.

Kill to absorb spirit points.

You can train it as a pet: Pets are allies of warriors in the universe, they add a significant boost to their owner's strength.]

[You can check records of anything that is weaker then you as long as it has spirit energy.]

"What is it, captain?" Chapman walked forward and Laurence handed the guy the egg.

"Woah." Chapman said in surprise. "Check this out. It says, would become stronger that the queen bee."

Johnny took the egg from Chapman and his eyes widened. He couldn't imagine a creature five times stronger and faster than the queen bee.

"We'll destroy it right. Even if it's record says it can become a pet." Johnny's deep voice still remained.

"We'll take that one back, blow the rest to pieces." Laurence said and took the egg and put it inside their bag of weapons before walking back outside.

Chapman and Johnny both unpinned two grenades before throwing it on the thick golden goo which had eggs in it.

They then ran to catch up with Laurence.

...

Laurence stepped out of the supermarket building to see that the day was already getting dark. Beatrice was currently resting on the truck and she stood up, seeing him coming towards the truck.

*BOOM!*

A loud explosion rang out and Laurence just had a cold expression on his face. Behind him, Chapman and Johnny came from within the building.

"What went off?" She asked with a emotionless expression.

"We destroyed the eggs." Laurence walked past her and put the weapons back inside the truck before Chapman and Johnny went in.

He and Beatrice then entered the front seats of the truck.

They couldn't continue the mission and retrieve the necessities but he decided to go back for now. Theu had a lot of injured people and they were all weak and tired.

...

Dexter opened his eyes to see himself on a soft mattress. It was so comfortable that he didn't want to stand up.

But then images flashed before him, he used the last of his spirit energy to do a massive strike of lightning to try and end the queen bee.

'Seems like my wounds are gone.' He thought while he looked at his hand.

No Claws, no bite mark.

'And what's this?' Dexter turned to the corner of his eyes where he saw the familiar golden words of the Tiran in the air.

[You have gained six rewards for dealing the final, killing attack to the aborginal; level 15 queen bee.]

[Do you wish to open?]

[Yes] | [No]

Dexter wasn't exactly in the position to open anything. First of all where was he?

'This isn't the room we were given before.' The one he was in had four mattresses. Even if it wasn't very spacious, it had mattresses!

Dexter sat up and felt pain in his shoulder joint. That's when he saw that his upper body was bandaged and he felt pain within him.

'The pain is not from my flesh. I'm feeling sore all over.' He thought and he stood up.

He sighed as he looked at the sunlight entering through the square window.

"The sun is already out." His Anti-daylight cloak then appeared on his body with a golden flash as he made his way to the bag and brought out his toothbrush, toothpaste, and a bottle of water.

He didn't know how long he slept but with how weird his mouth tasted... he estimated that it has been more than ten hours.

He made his way out of the room and he heard chattering here and there and he saw that he was really in the camp.

He walked towards the electric fence and soon found a secluded place and did the needful.

'I didn't see the others on my way here. Maybe I should ask Freddy where they went.' He thought, making his way to where the sick and injured were cared for.

Entering into the wide tent he saw the young man with dishelved hair and dark circles under his eyes, still with a lifeless expression. He snapped a patients wrist which was bent weirdly, back into its original place, making the person scream loudly in pain.

"Hey Freddy. Where are the others and also Laurence?" Dexter asked straight up.

"They're in the main building with the camp leader." Freddy said without even looking at him as he bandaged the person's hand.

'I'm still contemplating on whether to take the rewards for myself. We all worked for it though.' He sighed as he stretched his arms, he was already making his way to the main building. 'I'll just wait till I see them. Then we'll discuss what to do.'
