Chapter 31: Poisonous Gene Core
"BOOM!"
The stroke was fast and furious; it was as if it had been practiced innumerable amount of times.
Tyrion's body executed it by instinct.
He saw the huge black shadow pouncing towards him get struck by the saber and felt the backlash from the blade striking something hard. Borrowing the momentum from the huge impact, the long-hilted saber swept away the oncoming black shadow.
"BAM!"
The black shadow slammed into the ground, rolled over a few times, and emitted a pained growl. The torch cast its light onto it now that it appeared in its range.
It was a huge Dark-wolf! Its waist had been cut wide open by his saber!
Before he could think about it further, two other wild wolves pounced towards him from the dark.
His body reacted in the first second by instinct.
Tilting the long-hilted saber leftwards, he blocked one of the wild wolves with its long hilt. Then, with a swing of his body, he threw that wolf onto the other beast.
"Bang!"
These two effortful motions would have left him wanting in strength but with 52 percent of his cells active, he was more stronger now.
The two dark wolves were thrown into the distance, hurt.
Panting slightly and red-eyed, Tyrion lifted his saber and unleashed the Fifth saber style on the nearest wild wolf!
The blade sliced down from above, inclining slightly. His wrists vibrated vigorously – they shook thrice continuously, as per the rate dictated by the mantra.
"Whoosh!"
The piercing screech of the air being torn apart resounded through the air like a sonic boom as a white scar appeared in mid-air.
Struck with fear, the two dark wolves trembled and their movements lapsed by a beat.
At that instant, light flashed across the blade of the long-hilted saber. One of the beasts was beheaded on the spot with a clean saber stroke.
The tip of the saber had also nicked the other wolf's neck, and blood was rapidly seeping out of it.
Tyrion mustered up his strength and struck again. This time, he used his strongest skill, the Ultima state of the Nine Saber Styles.
His forearm vibrated four times, employing a different level of force each time. The strength of his entire body was channeled into the saber.
Star annihilation emphasized more to speed than the other nine styles did, compromising slightly on strength in return.
Nonetheless, its power was extremely frightening as it could even slash through rocks. It wasn't something the fragile neck of a mere rank 1 wolf with 5
20% cell activation rate could withstand.
Before the wolf could dodge, it was struck squarely in the neck by the long-hilted saber that sped up drastically without warning.
"Splat!"
The wolf's head fell to the ground.
Tyrion sucked in huge mouthfuls of air, as he stood motionless amidst the corpses.
The continuous series of big movements had left a layer of sweat on his face.
"HOWL..."
One more Dark wolf remained – the one which went for the bloody meat.
Now, it went around a rock, its two green eyes staring furiously at Tyrion.
Frustration gathered in Tyrion's heart.
Facing the brutality of the Dark wolf, Tyrion's face remained impassive. He understood that when facing off against an Evo beast, one must never back off or show even a hint of fear.
"Eh!?"
Both his eyes opened wide in a stare as he glared fiercely at the wolf.
The last wild wolf focused its stare on him for a moment longer before slowly retreating backward.
The moment it turned its back and was about to flee, Tyrion's figure faded along with the wind like an apparition and suddenly appeared by the side of the dark wolf.
Before it was even able to react the blade dragged a thin white scar on the air, slashing directly at the wolf's neck. 𝘧𝘳ℯℯ𝓌ℯ𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
"SPLAT!"
Another wolf's head dropped to the ground just like that.
Tyrion's muscles squirmed as his boiling blood finally calmed.
He then thought back to the battle as he revised his reactions.
'If I had used phantom Leg art along with my combat arts, it would have been more easier to kill them all.' He couldn't help but shake his head.
However, this was still a considerable outcome. Dark wolves could only activate 20% of their cells and amongst other Evo beasts, they are weaker.
Genetic Soldiers with 20% activated cells and experience could easily take care of one Dark wolf therefore it was no surprise he could take care of a group of them.
Tyrion retrieved a square-shaped device that was as thick as a brick and placed it above the arteries of the dead wolves.
With a 'Kacha' sound, a needle ejected from the device, and then with a mechanical sound, a suction force activated as the blood of the dead beast was been sucked and compressed in it.
A few seconds later, the dark wolf had been sucked dry of its essence blood as its body shriveled considerably.
Tyrion repeated this for the other dead beasts until he had sucked them dry.
Taking the torch, Tyrion kept the device in his backpack and hurriedly left the area, choosing a random direction, he continued walking deeper into the forest.
...
Currently, Tyrion was squatting on a huge tree and staring at a giant forest lizard below him.
This was the third Evo beast he had met.
And, it was also a peak rank 1 mutated beast!
He didn't know if he was lucky or not. He had hung around for an hour but didn't meet any evil beast. The moment he met one, it was a peak rank 1 evo beast.
This beast had mutated from a forest giant lizard. Its body was covered with thick and heavy scales, giving off a metallic glimmer. Its claws were as sharp as knives, and its fangs looked like spikes. They were able to pierce through a person in an instant.
At first, Tyrion thought that it hadn't noticed him yet. He had steeled himself and was planning to sneak an attack on it. Nonetheless, this was the first time he met a peak-level evo beast. Hence, he didn't act rashly.
Out of his expectations, the forest giant lizard swung its tail at him. The huge force cut the tree he was using to hide into two.
"BOOM!"
The tree cracked and fell. novelbuddy.(c)om
"F**k, it's so strong?"
Tyrion hurriedly stomped heavily on the ground and leaped into the air.
Then, without hesitation, activated the Ultima state of Berserk Explosion combat technique as he waved his large blade and exerted strength all over his body. He struck his sword down at the giant forest lizard.
"ROAR!!!"
The giant lizard opened its mouth and let out a growl. It swung its tail again and swept it towards him.
This tail sweep was extremely powerful. Even the air around it gave off short exploding sonic booms as they ripped apart.
Tyrion's eyebrows jumped slightly.
Naturally, he wasn't stupid; he wouldn't receive the attack forcefully. He executed his Phantom art leg to its limit and managed to turn his body in the air.
The maneuver allowed him to evade the attack easily.
Tyrion instantly lowered his center of gravity and landed on the ground. He clenched his fist and thick finger-sized veins squirmed around his wrist.
The air around his fist exploded and immediately, he punched the side of the giant lizard with his fist.
"BANG!"
The strength of 100% activated cells was terrifying. This punch caused the scale armor of the giant lizard to crack open, even hurting the bones underneath.
"Howl—"
The giant lizard howled in pain. It opened its mouth and wanted to pounce on Tyrion. The stinging stench of blood flowed right into his face.
"Hmph!"
Tyrion's bloodshot eyes turned cold and he snorted. His speed suddenly accelerated as he transformed into myriads of afterimages, and he evaded the giant lizard's attack.
Next, he raised the blade in his hand and charged forward like a bullet.
"Star Annihilation!"
"Crack!"
Fresh blood spurted out!
His large blade slashed right through the giant lizard's mouth. It cut off a huge portion of the lizard's head. The next moment, the giant lizard fell to the ground with a thud. It was dead.
"Sigh!"
Tyrion let out a breath and his inflated muscles, cracked, bloody flesh, and terrifying snakes-like veins returned to normal.
Peak-level rank 1 evo beast were harder to deal with than he had imagined. However, it was still a piece of cake for him.
His boy began to heal rapidly as he walked towards the giant lizard and absorbed its blood essence.
A few minutes later, he suddenly stopped and faced a direction.
"People are fighting over there!"
Following the sound, Tyrion rushed there quietly. Pushing back the branches, Tyrion found a forest scene with human figures and a huge growling Evo beast.
When he was thirty steps away from the battlefield, Tyrion jumped up onto a big tree to watch the fight from above.
In the woods, there was an emptied grassy field about fifteen meters long. In that field, there were five teenagers holding weapons in their hands surrounding a huge Evo beast. Its body was about three meters long and looked like a tiger with black shiny hair, panting as its long bloody tongue dripped with purple liquid, its mouth was filled with huge sharp teeth and its claws were sharp and angled, measured about a meter long.
It was a peak rank 1 Poison Saw-Toothed Tiger, its power was equivalent to a Genetic Soldier with 90% activated cell. Its teeth carried a deadly poison that, once touched, would cause your skin to fester and can only cured by a single antidote, otherwise once the poison spread to your heart, even a Super would find it difficult to deal with the poison.
The twin brothers suddenly laughed brightly as they harvested the Evo beast, "This time we got really lucky! This Evo beast condensed a poisonous gene core!"
"A poisonous gene core?" Both the blue-cloth young man and the black-clothed man looked surprised.
The twin brothers nodded in excitement, "Yes, an actual gene core. It seems to have been formed only a couple of months ago judging that it is no larger than a walnut."
A peak rank 1 Evo beast could sell for about 10,000 death points. After dividing it five ways, everyone would receive two thousand silvers.
However, a gene core from the Evo beast's body could sell for 10,000 death points by itself.
And even though it was only formed months ago, a gene core the size of a walnut could sell for at least 20,000 death points.
This was because the poisonous gene core came from the accumulation of 'Dust' and pure concentrated gene from its genome.
Gene core was simply the condensation of the evo beast's bio-energy, adrenaline, and gene cells compressed over the ages and richness of 'DUST' in its body. The result was a gene core that formed from layer upon layer of energy slowly wrapping together and becoming larger.
It's like a second heart evo beasts could tap into when cornered, almost like the latent talent of humans.
Gene core could be for many things. Can be used as medicinal ingredients or used for training one's poison arts.
The red-clothed girl stared with big eyes as she reached out to touch that incredible rare black gene core with her hand before the blue-cloth young man stopped her immediately, "Don't! don't touch it! Poisonous gene cores are condensed from the poison from the Evo beast over many years. It is extremely toxic, it can even melt through iron not to mention what would happen if you touch it!"
"Hmph!" The young girl quickly retrocede her hand but then stuck her tongue out at the blue cloth man.
The blue-robed teenager took out a metallic box made of special material from his bag and said: "A wooden box and an ordinary iron box would not be able to contain this core, only one made of special materials like emerald box could safely seal in the poison."
The boy struck out his palm near the beast's heart. Immediately, the force traveled through the entire body and the gene core popped upwards.
Without actually touching it, the Young man kept the core in the box, carefully sealing it inside.
By the dead beast, the twin brothers had already begun to cut away parts of the evo beast's body parts before storing them into a golden backpack.
