Blood Warlock: Subus Partner In The Apocalypse Chapter 78
The sound of roars and bangs was the first thing Bai Zemin could make out as he approached the exit
of the subway parking structure. Furthermore, although it was barely distinguishable due to the
overwhelming sound of what he assumed were the mutated ape’s attacks, Bai Zemin could also faintly
feel the sound of the wind being pierced by what he thought were Chen He’s arrows.
A split secondter, Shangguan Bing Xue’s cold voice reached his ears followed by a roar from the
mutated ape. Obviously her attack had managed to inflict enough damage for its roar to change.
Two secondster, Bai Zemin finally reached the surface and his footsteps paused for a moment to
take in the surrounding situation. After all, he didn’t want to die shamefully by rushing into battle without
knowing what exactly was going on.
The first thing that came into his line of sight was an ape that was clearly taller than the previous
survivor had announced. Instead of three meters tall, the mutated ape easily reached four meters and
its muscles were explosive enough to crush a house with its fists. In addition, the mutated beast was
covered in arge amount of silver-colored fur that glistened in the rays of the evening sunlight, giving it
a majestic appearance.
However, the ape’s body was wounded. There were at least a dozen arrows firmly stuck in the beast’s
abdomen, chest, arms, shoulders, and legs, causing blood to flow constantly from those small holes.
Bai Zemin narrowed his eyes and noticed that those arrows were not normal. A faint light of light blue
shone on the outline of the arrow, which kept them steady and undestroyed by the fierce movements of
the mutated ape.
It must be the treasure Chen He obtained. Probably something that boosts his attacks in some way. Bai
Zemin thought as his sight moved at lightning speed to the semi-frozen limbs of the giant ape.
Bang!
The giant ape brutally mmed the floor right in front of him and Chen He hurriedly jumped to the side
almost getting crushed in the process. He stood up instantly after and ran several meters before pulling
out an arrow from the quiver behind his back and firing it at full speed.
When the arrow touched the bow, its dark brown color turned the same as the other arrows that were
stuck in the mutated ape’s body, confirming Bai Zemin’s theory about boosting power. As for whether it
was a treasure or a skill, he didn’t know.
“Freeze.”
Shangguan Bing Xue’s voice attracted his attention and Bai Zemin arrived just in time to see a small
golden colored stick shooting out a st of icy air.
Roar!
The ape roared and its wild movements slowed a little but still noticeably. Around its fur, Bai Zemin
could see from a distance how some parts had frozen or were still in the process of freezing due to the
icy air from before.
A magic wand? Bai Zemin had that idea as he looked at the small stick in Shangguan Bing Xue’s
hands. He assumed that instead of increasing Strength like his Xuanyuan Sword, the magic wand
should definitely increase Magic and Mana or one of both stats.
Instead of interrupting, Bai Zemin watched the battle unfold as he also wanted to see how strong Chen
He and Shangguan Bing Xue had be over the past few days.
The battle was quite close.
The giant ape was pretty fast and seemed to bepletely focused on hunting Chen He who was
shooting arrows every time the opportunity presented to him instead of going after Shangguan Bing
Xue who was the person that really threatened its life.
Bang!… Bang!… Bang!
Several one or two-story buildings in the surrounding area were crushed under the giant ape’s heavy
and powerful fists or its agile kicks that seemed to contain the flexibility and speed of a whip but the
power of a giant mace. Bai Zemin was sure that even he would be seriously injured if he received one
of those blows directly.
Chen He might not be able topare with Bai Zemin, but he was certainly not weak by any means.
The damage from his strange arrows was little but slowly umted and the giant ape was losing
more and more blood; moreover, when it seemed that he was about to be crushed, he somehow
managed to escape at thest second by using the terrain to his advantage.
Of course, the reason why Chen He could stand his ground and fight without having to run away as he
did before or without being killed was all thanks to Shangguan Bing Xue’s timely support. Otherwise he
would definitely not be able to do as much against the giant ape considering that he was currently
already at his limit even with support.
The giant ape’s movements had slowed down by at least 60% and great parts of its body had been
frozen with small icicles of ice. In addition, Shangguan Bing Xue asionally set up small ice traps to
restrain the monster or shot sharp ice pikes, creating small wounds and freezing the blood inside little
by little.
Unfortunately, Bai Zemin knew that it was not so simple to end the life of a First Order existence…
Because the giant ape had yet to show any skills!
Indeed, Bai Zemin’s thoughts proved to be true not long after.
Roar!
The ape stopped its movements and raised its head to the sky as it roared fiercely. Its silver fur that
had been soiled with its own blood and the areas frozen by Shangguan Bing Xue’s magic spells were
surrounded by a strange white light that shed with such fervor that it seemed to want topete
against the sun, forcing anyone who looked directly at it to close their eyes.
When the bright sh calmed down and everyone was able to open their eyes again, Chen He could
not help but take several steps back as Shangguan Bing Xue’s eyes widened slightly in disbelief.
“I see… So that’s the skill this ape obtained when it advanced to First Order.” Bai Zemin muttered to
himself and couldn’t help but secretly feel a bit of fear as he realized what the giant ape’s skill was.
The giant ape’s skill was very simple. It didn’t increase its strength, nor did it increase its speed or
defense, nor did it give it any kind of elemental control… It was a skill that could only be used on itself.
Regeneration!
The skill that the giant mutated ape had acquired during its evolution gave it the ability to recover from
seemingly any wound!
What was worse than a strong enemy? A strong enemy that could recover from the wounds you had
inflicted on it after working so hard and risking your life so many times to do so!
The silver fur that was covered with blood and ice patches now looked perfect as if it had never faced
any enemy in the first ce. However, Bai Zemin noticed that the beast was breathing erratically and
the madness in its eyes seemed to have dimmed, being reced by tiredness.This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.
