DESTINY GAMES-Chapter 238: Another Round.

His body and mind ached. His vision swam, and his ear was ringing. But he wasn’t being dragged through the air anymore, so he was glad.

He hit the ground painfully and groaned. Wrath was shouting at him, "Are you alright?"

He replied, "I am never doing that again."

Apparently, his diamond defense doesn’t protect him from high-intensity vibrational attacks. Actually, it might have amplified it.

The sound entered his body and caused it to crack all over. But it also ensured that every inch of his body was affected by the attack, so the gap that was created in the force holding him was big enough for him to pass through.

He was groaning in pain because of his injuries, but Wrath wouldn’t let him rest. She kept shouting at him. "You have to leave. This place is too dangerous for you."

He didn’t want to listen to her. He just wanted to take a moment to let life force heal him. Moving in his situation is very dangerous because of his internal injuries.

It is as if he had broken every organ and bone in his body. Of course, moving is a very bad idea.

But he knew she was right. This place is too dangerous for the likes of him. So he did his best to get away.

His best was him crawling away as he healed. It is unsightly, but he is proud of it.

He is also proud that he was able to pull of that one explosion. It is not something he thought he would be able to do.

It is not that he thought he was mentally lacking. But he didn’t think he would be able to perform the series of delicate steps needed to execute the plan.

Normally he is mentally paralyzed or at least mentally suppressed in the presence of unnatural creatures like those two. The dark light of their presence alone used to fill him with dread.

He would become too anxious to perform fine operations. But this time, things were different. Things were worse than the mere threat of death. If he hadn’t done what he did, he was definitely going to die.

His mind happened to be highly motivated by the prospect of living for another day to curse Wrath for her uselessness. So he was very dedicated and managed to pull it off.

He was in a good mood as his injuries began to heal. Soon he was walking and running away from the two beasts smashing each other and everything around them.

He had a look of relief on his face as he made considerable distance from them. But that relief turned into shock when he felt a malevolent gaze on his back.

It was the same feeling he had that made him stop attacking the giant worm and run for his life. It was the feeling of danger of an apex predator setting its hungry sights on him.

He groaned as a powerful invisible force grabbed onto him and stopped him in place. Then his look of shock morphed into fear when that force yanked him off his feet and backwards.

He roared in anger, "No way."

Wrath had to ask, "Is she targeting you?"

The demigod was indeed targeting him.

Actually, she had forgotten about him when the human giant showed up. She was too busy fighting for her life to be concerned with a mere mortal that she could kill in at most two moves. Or one move if she were really serious and willing to go all out right from the start.

Things were so bad that she had to resort to grabbing the ground and using it as a weapon to stop the momentum of the giant swordsman. But then an explosion appeared in the area of her influence.

This explosion drew her attention. Then she saw the reason why she was exposed trying to escape.

She hadn’t planned for a fight. She had only wanted to assassinate troublesome human soldiers quietly through the night. But the first human she had targeted had refused to die.

He was like a cockroach. Even now, he was still struggling to survive. The sight made her angry. So she targeted him and made a move on him again.

This time, her move is deliberate. She is not just picking up soil to hurl at her opponent. The purpose of this move is to crush the human bug like the cockroach he is.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t dedicate much power to killing the human bug because of the giant swordsman hounding her. She could only make sure he wouldn’t be able to escape this time as she pulled him into the range of their battle.

Kelvin’s eyes were popping out because of the pressure being exerted on his body by the invisible force holding him. The force wanted to crush him instantly, but his diamond physique proved too durable for such a move.

Even so, he was cracking. If not for Life Core and its ability to heal him rapidly by siphoning life force, he would be cracked open like an egg in three seconds tops.

Trees withered as he took their life force. With it, he was able to extend the time it would take him to crack to ten seconds.

Unfortunately, he will reach the two demigods before that ten seconds. Then he will surely die.

He activated Juggernaut’s Armament again. This diverted life force from his injuries and shortened the time he could hold on to 7 seconds. But he thought it better to prioritize escaping over enduring the crushing force.

Unfortunately, Juggernaut’s Armament couldn’t create the armor around him because there was no space for it. The grip of the force holding him was so tight that his forcefield ability couldn’t manifest.

His heart went cold with a sudden realization. He said to Wrath, "I’m screwed this time, aren’t I?"

What answered him was Extraordinary Perception. Apparently, an invisible star had appeared in the world.
