Furious Battle

Rowen jumped spinning in midair like in Chinese martial arts movies. On the floor, a wave of pointy ice rushed through, piercing everyone in its path.

Translocation was activated and he switched places with Uvon, the butterfly-winged king guard, who had his body spinning for a moment out of his control.

He flapped his wings and managed to mend himself in mid-air to a thread being pierced by a thorn of ice.

Already Rowen, appeared and moved his arms at high speed with sharp sword attacks against Marcel who used teleport to appear on the other side of Rowen giving a kick that was deflected as Matrix, but forward.

Leaning forward in a compromising position, Rowen swung his leg around with his back to the ground and kicked with his right leg the arm Marcel used as a shield, but even so he was pushed a few feet away.

Rowen finished the spin on one foot and stood facing Marcel who disappeared and reappeared in front of Rowen ready to cut his head off.

Rowen switched places with Aaron and attacked the red ant with both swords.

[You leveled!]

But he didn't stop. Blink was activated a moment later, as Marcel did not stop his attack when Aaron appeared before him, but simply teleported as soon as he knew where Rowen appeared and ended the attack, but only hit the black smoke.

"I never thought I was going to say that, but teleportation is proving to be pretty annoying." Marcel whispered raising his lip in frustration.

"Now you know how I almost always feel in our workouts." Aaron approached him and commented coldly and then followed Rowen with his eyes.

The teenager was sliding through a crowd of three-color ants and killing them in succession with brute force and speed.

"I don't know what it is, but the brat has a skill that allows him to get stronger, faster and tougher whenever he levels." Aaron commented.

"Yes, I got it and it's annoying. Can't he just let himself be killed? Damn time I brought him. If I had known, I would have killed him on the spot." Marcel growled and sighed shortly thereafter. "The longer we take, the closer the king is to be born. I did not know of this ability to absorb the energy of the dead around you to accelerate the birth. According to legends, if they are to be taken seriously, we have no chance against such a creature. I think it's time for us to leave."

Aaron stared at the whole place. There were fights on almost every side. The ants were slowly decreasing in number and the pressure emanating from the cocoon was increasing.

"A little more. I want to screw this damn floor before we go to the second floor." Aaron answered.

Marcel shrugged.

"It's fine by me."

Rowen jumped and as he spun in mid-air like a beyblade using both swords to slice her enemies, her eyes caught glimpses of Aaron and Marcel talking to each other.

His attention returned to the fight and he used force as he placed the two blades in Uvon's palm, which had its feet sunk into the ground and was pushed back by almost 1 meter.

"You'll be a great meal for the king." Uvon commented half effeminately.

"And you shouldn't give much EXP, but it should do something." Rowen's tone was calm and emotionless, as were his golden eyes.

He pushed and then backed away and jumped back. Blink was activated and Uvon received an attack that came from nowhere on the shoulder.

Green blood squirted and he roared with pain. Furious, he turned sharply. Translocation was activated, and Uvon found himself hitting Marcel, who had great reflexes and instincts and so quickly created an energy shield that was cracked and he found himself being pushed back by the force of the shock.

Aaron found himself hit in the face by a powerful aerial kick from Rowen.

The bandit leader was sent away and crashed into a group of red and purple ants.

At the same time, whenever possible, unknowingly, the slaves were slowly translocating away into a corner near an ant-free exit.

And discreetly, sometimes a blue mist mixed with purple appeared like a mirror and a slave entered.

[You leveled!]

Rowen continued to level and at times, his eyes darted over the king's cocoon and then he watched the 3 royal guards around the queen maintaining the force field and being impassive. No one dared to approach them.

He had long realized that he was being watched by the only female guard, a humanoid ant that looks like a cat, Nerpheri.

Her feline tail waggled at times and she had a curious and expectant look, but at the same time, she possessed an otherworldly malice.

Uvon flew and hovered in mid-air spreading wings and flapping. Rowen, Aaron, and Marcel were the targets of a steel-piercing rain of thorns that rose in midair around him and flew at them.

Rowen launched her sonar over 200 meters. There was only him and one more slave in the middle of the fight.

He had not yet teleported that slave, for he saw that he was fighting and doing well against countless ants. Unfortunately, he still couldn't see what that slave was like, but there was something familiar about him.

The thorns were about to hit him when he chose his target, Nerpheri.

He focused and activated. It took almost two seconds to wait for the skill to be released and at the last moment failed.

Nerpheri wiggled his ears and tilted his head and simply stepped almost imperceptibly aside at the last moment.

His feet sank to the floor creating cracks and in the blink of an eye, a pillar was knocked over and then Nerpheri was kicking the back of both of Rowen's arms that reacted fast enough to protect himself.

There was a crash and then it was flying like a cannonball dropping countless ants and pilasters.

Blink was interrupted even before he could activate the skill.

This damn ant-cat mix had managed to make both of his skills fail and had overwhelming strength and speed.

There were two more consecutive crashes and the wall of ice that Aaron created was destroyed and he was thrown away and then Marcel, who had teleported away from the attack area of Uvon's thorns, was kicked in the back and thrown into the air. through the rain of thorns.

In the blink of an eye it all happened and Nerpheri reappeared in his seat beside the queen licking his paw casually.

"Nyah… Uvon, you need to train more. The king is about to be born and he doesn't need weaklings by his side."

Rowen got up from a few boulders and spat out blood, but her eyes remained calm, or nearly so. He looked… curious and a hint of expectation.

He felt his blood bubbling, literally and for a mere moment, he saw colored scales as the rainbow run down his arm and disappear.

Their mutant genes almost took control.

The chimera, which had eagle's beak and eyes, hawk wings, scorpion tail, and bull's body, had a vision that could see a mosquito for over 10 km, and he saw Rowen's rapid change of skin before returning to the normal.

"Although the egg has been eaten, if the king feeds on that human, it will not be such a loss." Taran commented. "He acquired some unique powers and his race changed to something similar to ours."

All the royal guards spoke telepathically.

Nerpheri's ears moved and his eyes focused on Rowen who was staring at her with the same blank expression.

He reached over and threw a fireball at an ant that could barely stand. His eyes never left Nerpheri.

An anticipatory silence fell over all those who were important.

Uvon, Taran and Nagan, the third chimera beside Taran and Nerpheri, as well as the Queen, Marcel and Aaron, all stared and watched the battle between Nerpheri and Rowen closely.

The fireball was about a foot from the helpless ant.

Rowen didn't blink, just watched Nerpheri as if she were a specimen to be analyzed.

Chimera-Ant moved at the final moment of the release of Translocation.

"Oh…" she said in place of the ant who traded with her and appeared beside Taran.

Nerpheri used the palm of his hand and as if he were scaring off a mosquito, he dissipated the fireball.

Rowen appeared in black smoke behind her ready to bury the two swords in her back.

Nerpheri's ears moved and she crouched feline and spun around using her leg almost like a whip.

In midair, somehow, Rowen managed to turn her body and landed her feet on Nerpheri's leg and leaped upward, headfirst to the ground and only about five meters apart between his head and Nerpheri's. it was half bent over just one foot.

His right leg, which was in midair, was still moving and his body spinning.

In the same position, Nerpheri opened her eyes a little wider as she was taken aback once again.

She and the former ant shifted again and her leg hit Taran's face, which was taken aback and almost crushed between Nerpheri's foot and the shield of light behind him that protected the queen and cocoon.

Rowen fell toward the ant below him and spun to his feet as he cut the ant in half.

"Shit… The damn can adapt in the middle of the fight. Catching him by surprise will be rare and all at once." Marcel commented somewhat impressed and disgusted at the same time.

Taran stepped away from the shield and looked annoyed. Green blood comes out of your mouth.

Nerpheri leaped a few feet back like a feline, but his expression was that of a curious and slowly cat, increasingly interested in the world.

Taran spread his wings sharply. A powerful wave of energy and wind spread everywhere, and blades of wind flew everywhere.

Both Nerpheri and Uvon had to dodge with aerial and ground stunts.

Already everyone else, many ants were killed and cut into pieces.

Aaron created an ice dome. Marcel teleported away from the attacks. A shield of transparent energy emerged somewhere that could withstand the very sharp and powerful wind blades.

Already Rowen, he simply switched places with Taran and moved the swords just as he was attacked by Nagan's hair.

Nagan had a pale face, almost clownlike. Sharp teeth of piranha. Black eyes like those of a frog. Body very similar to that of a human, with parts such as his reptilian scales, back, arms and legs. And there was her hair, which was not hair but snakes. Lots of live snakes that seemed to have a mind of their own.

Snake heads fell to the ground and turned to ashes and new heads grew at an absurd speed.

Rowen used Blink in time to escape Taran's wind attacks.

Black smoke rose at one point. In the blink of an eye, Nerpheri created a trail of destruction behind her by using her raw speed and jumping.

Claws grew and like a predator, she attacked Rowen just as he materialized.

Her body leaned back like the Matrix. He could feel the sharp air of the attack slide over his face and a trickle of blood surge.

Within inches of the floor, he shifted places with Marcel, who widened his eyes as soon as he processed what happened and saw Nerpheri turn and use his feline tail as a whip.

He teleported away.

Rowen appeared standing and if not for his reflexes and instincts, he would have lost control and fallen. He had appeared with his back to Nerpheri.

Nerpheri fell to his feet and spun around at high speed into Karate Kid's position, stood on one leg and extended his arms like a heron. Spots of light appeared in the air behind her, mimicking a pentagram.

The heat increased, and soon after, the five orange-gold-blended points of light released increasing rays of light and merged to create a beam of light more than 2 meters in diameter.

The air trembled and steam rose. The floor below became like a bowl. The rocks melted and the nearby ants caught fire.

Rowen felt hot behind him, but did not turn, for his attention was on the last slave in this place, besides him.

He remembered. He saw him a few hours ago. It was the same young man who used the God Altar before him.

The slave was on his left and there were countless dead and dead ants around him.

Rowen watched him ponder for a moment before rolling his eyes and making his choice.

In just an instant, Rowen watched, analyzed, processed, and adapted. All glimpses of the slave's fights flooded his head and he soon had a poor idea of how that slave fought and what his skills were.

Perhaps as fast as Quicksilver, the slave emerged from behind Rowen and a shield of transparent energy formed over them like a sphere.

The shield began to crack like a mirror.

Translocation has been enabled.
