Chapter 209(1/3)
Chopped very finely
The next scene made even a well-informed veteran like [Riptide] Sam feel chilled in his heart.
The scene looked like this when Mystra's head on the ground began to scream in agony.
The endless worms on her body suddenly seemed to be electrocuted, first twitching, then tensing up, and then dancing wildly.
Then the process was repeated for the larger parts of her body.
Until the end, the movement was as smooth as if it were intact, and the head, shoulders, and arms with eyes turned white were connected to the body.
It doesn’t actually sound very novel, right?
Because this is the perspective of ordinary people.
In the [Condensation] with Nian Qi, this picture is of another style.
——Mystra is achieving "symbiosis" with the worms on her body!
To be precise, her strength is being eaten away!
Sam guessed that the nerve center of this evolved worm had actually been equipped with something like a controller.
After Mystra's defeat, the mechanical stimulation of the worms began to spread their vitality wildly.
The power of the worm greedily demanded the ownerless power of Mystera's body.
They are still calm on the outside, but the end of these worms facing the carapace interface has probably grown into the inside of the body, right?!
The cold and ruthless reptilian vitality invaded and bitten a human body, almost making Sam want to vomit!
And what made Sam feel chilling in his heart was: after most of the beast's power in the body was transferred to the worm, would the head attached to it still belong to a human?
The huge vitality that is crazy and unintentionally manipulated is like a hurricane.
Mystra's uncontrollably twitching body was the eye of the hurricane.
The whitened pupils returned after a few seconds of connecting to the body.
The life force burst out like a storm, then suddenly stopped.
In the sudden switch between extreme movement and extreme stillness, time seems to have stood still for a short time.
".Are you still a human being?"
Sam put the knife on his waist and asked hesitantly.
As for Mystra, it seemed as if her facial muscles had become necrotic after her head was reattached.
He said expressionlessly: "Of course."
"Of course I'm human."
The corners of Sam's mouth twitched as he watched the other person's eyes transform towards insect-like compound eyes.
The flesh, flesh, skeleton, and lens are twisted and deformed like melted candles, then solidified and reshaped.
It's actually a bit scary.
".does it worth?"
Sam's throat felt dry when he asked questions.
Under his sight, those bloodless, tearless, greedy and cold reptilian life forces were constantly eroding the other person's body even during the current conversation.
——Even if you died on the spot just now, you would still feel much better than you do now!
Not only was the life energy being eroded, as the closest person, Sam could even hear the sound of the worm's sticky, fat gelatinous body feasting on the opponent's body.
It really was eaten clean in every sense of the word!
But I don’t know if Mystra’s facial nerves are really necrotic, or if the muscle structure on his face has become close to that of a reptile.
Even the tone of her voice did not change when she was eaten alive.
"worth?"
"Childish question, Sam."
Originally, the thought energy that was once again under control began to rise again.
Soon, Mystera reached the peak state of the battle just now.
But there are still no signs of stopping.
On the contrary, it is becoming more high-spirited, more vigorous, more cold and murderous!
"You're a genius, Sam."
"A genius who can overcome the power gap of tens of thousands of horses to defeat me with the advantages of [Nian Qi Realm] and martial arts achievements."
"But I've said it before, right? The so-called 'meaning of life' is something that must be accomplished at all costs."
"I can't win you in a reserved and elegant battle, then"
"Biting, entangled, and even ugly stalking. Isn't this just a natural thing?"
Now it would be great if your body was really as "relaxed" as you say!
Mystra's physical condition makes even Sam, an enemy, feel trembling all over.
That's like feeding yourself to the bugs with your own hands!
Mystra's aura was becoming as cold and cruel as a reptile.
And it is getting stronger and stronger.
Now, she is——
[Power of the giant beast·285,000 horses]!
"Bang!"
Just by stamping his feet, the ring-shaped air waves directly bombarded the ground with holes several meters deep.
"So fast, faster than just now. This is not an increase that can be achieved by adding 20,000 horses!"
For a moment like a frame was dropped, Mystra, with a distorted face, had already rushed in front of Sam.
Sam's eyes were serious, but he was not helpless.
He straightened the blade and placed it at the position where the opponent was about to reach.
"Even at this speed, it shouldn't be able to catch up with those ahead."
But just as Sam was rehearsing the battle in his mind, Mystra's body movements caused his pupils to shrink suddenly.
".This is not what humans should do!"
The weirdly twisting body is more like a bag filled with worms than a human being!
The first plan to fight against humans has failed.
"Dong-"
The nearly transparent bodies of several worms were stretched tightly against Sam's chest exoskeleton.
The products of Shaw Heavy Industries are solid and durable, and the swordsman with high ponytail is not stingy in the energy he uses for defense.
But when the worm collided with Sam's skin, the flesh filled with the power of the giant beast was squeezed.
It doesn't even crack loud enough.
The level of crushing force caused the worm's arm to blast straight through Sam's chest.
"Pfft!"
The pain of having the nerves crushed makes the body temporarily unconscious.
From the wounds in his mouth and chest, blood flowed down like a waterfall.
"You can fight back even in this situation. You are really scary, Samuel."
Mystra looked at the several worm arms that were chopped off by Sam when he punched, and admired them from the bottom of his heart.
Immediately, the worm arm she had inserted into Sam's body was not withdrawn, but remained in his chest.
The worms burrowed in crazily, as if they were hungry.
More than a dozen worm arms grabbed Sam's body and hung him in the air.
Squeeze, entangle, bite.
After a defeat, there is no room for maneuver.
When there is a huge gap in strength, fighting is a ballet on the edge of a knife for the weak.
It seems that in the process of being corroded by worms, even his own will has been distorted and tainted with playful cruelty.
Mystra stretched Sam's body wider while laughing in a high-pitched voice.
"But so what if you're horrible? How do you feel now! How do you feel now?!"
"The famous [Riptide]! The genius among geniuses! You can cut off my whip at the first meeting!"
