Corpse Beasts Part 1

As the human greed within surged and Lex's curious nature got the best of him, he heads closer towards the golden and red temple.

CREAK.

Although walking slowly and carefully as he stepped forward the area around the temple began to surge with negative and deathly power and Lex's intuition told him something dangerous was coming.

"Run, " he screams, grabbing Angela's arm as he bursts off his feet towards the exit of the mist grounds and battling the hunters would be better than dealing with whatever was being produced from all that deathly energy.

It was impossible to escape as the whole area around them was surrounded by disgusting corpse beasts who were similar to skeletons and zombies, however, had energy and powerful bodies.

"Shit, Angela you can't see anything so are useless in this battle, we are surrounded by corpse beasts that are charging straight at us" he exclaims in worry.

[I need to calm down, what do I know about corpse beasts], he thinks to himself as he scans his memory that has always been almost perfect since he was young.

"Hahahahaha, I guess the heavens have blessed me and allowed me a way out" he exclaims in joy as he grabs Kano and strokes his head.

[Lightning, the element representing divine punishment to evil which includes corpse beasts and is exactly the element I have] he thinks to himself as he draws on Kano's lightning as they both begin to surge of lightning.

Both his eyes became blue and golden, not using the scouting eye and relying on the lightning manipulation eye to see energy, to be able to see through the mist and his surroundings like Kano.

Lightning Form.

His body surges full of power as lightning swims around his body, externally and internally.

"Angela pour as much energy as you can into me and Kano will protect you," he says to her.

Now slightly more experienced after journeying with Lex, she knew better than to hesitate and at this point trusted him with her life.

Drawing in on all her energy reserves she sends a large burst of power into Lex's body which fuelled his body and eye's as his energy reserves begin to overflow.

Sending out most of her energy all at once couldn't be handled by her body as she collapses.

"Although my energy is denser, she is still higher LVL than me, Kano you protect her as I release this energy as lightning defeating this corpse beast, " he screams as the veins in his body bulge as his muscles inflate due to the extreme amount of energy surging through his body which he could barely handle.

Feeling as if he is about to explode, he transforms his energy into lightning as he circulates it with his eyes throughout his body.

"AAARRRRGGGGHHH" he roars as the lightning boosts his body as he zooms forth at unimaginable speeds and his body covered in blue and golden lightning with his normally curly brown hair standing on end as he charges at the corpse beasts.

With too much energy in his body, Lex was in a semi-crazed state as he sends his fists coated in lightning and the skeleton closest to him completely grinds the skull to dust.

"Kill all corpse beasts, " he roars.

Forming lightning bolts in each of his hands, he launches them at the corpse beasts closest to the unconscious Angela as it explodes as it hit them and burns their entire bodies into dust.

Bolt after bolt Lex throws these explosive lightning bolts slaughtering the corpse beasts. With the lightning as a catalyst reinforcing and fuelling his body, he zooms forth sending his fists into nearby destroying their bodies.

Calming down slightly from his aggressive and crazed state, he streams lightning energy into his hands forming two lightning daggers, one in each hand bursting with power.

The blades were blue and formed of energy with a golden streak in the middle. It was extremely sharp and had three ridges on the blade from a copied schematic in his mind he found of the standard-issue dual dagger in the military on Skynet.

Blitzing around the corpses with two lightning blades in his hands, he slashes through them like butter as he releases massive amounts of dense lightning energy countering their deathly and evil existence, Lex annihilates hundreds of corpse beasts.

Like the god of lightning, the brown-haired youth with two lightning blades in his hand and lightning streaming around his whole body with his blue and golden eyes weaved through the corpse beast slicing them with his blades and leaving humps of bones, ashes and blood everywhere.

However, the more he destroyed the more would be formed and the stronger they would become.

[My energy reserves are dwindling as this battle continues and we are surrounded so cannot escape and the more I destroy the more are formed] he analyses realising how detrimental the situation that they were in was.

Within minutes he had already used enormous amounts of energy, after recklessly launching energy everywhere and wouldn't be able to last for much longer.

"Shit, Kano watch out and guard Angela properly, " he warns Kano as he sees many corpse beast swarming in on their location while he is too far away from them to help.

Hearing his master's warning he was prepared and circulates lightning through his body as he withdraws his serrated claws, he flashes from corpse beast to corpse beast to corpse beast leaving a trail of lighting as he slashes them with his claws.

Seeing Kano protecting Angela diligently he felt relieved and now was just drawing the attention of the corpse beasts while he devises a plan and tries to figure out exactly what is going on. As he jumps away from the beasts charging at him trying to keep their attention on them.

[The more I destroy them, the more are produced somehow, mysteriously, the closer I get to the temple the stronger the corpse beasts are, so it is protecting something and it doesn't let me leave and escape].

"Just what in the hell am I going to do" he exclaims in confusion.
