BXBX NOVEL Chapter 80: Bait
[ He can just release outbursts of electricity through his finger tips, he can\'t exactly control the electricity.
And yes it is possible for more than one person to have the same ability, but that\'s mostly possible with weaker abilities, the stronger ones only choose one person. ]
\' I see, I hope that guy wins or we are all going to die. \' Lucian thought, as he placed his hand in his pocket and clutched the knife tightly.
The burly man and the red fiend continued to fight they both seemed almost equal, but it seemed there was a huge difference in their stamina, the burly man was already getting tired.
" Aaaaaaaaaahh- " One of the porters suddenly released a scream, then the sound of his body falling to the ground sounded.
" N- No I don\'t w- want to die sob sob "
" I should have never c- come here ahhhh we are all g- going to die noooo "
" F- Fuck, what in the h- hell is going on here? " Jackie spoke, his entire body was shaking just like the rest of the porters who fell to their knees and began to cry.
" Stay close to me, there shouldn\'t be too many left of them here. " The burly man spoke as he pulled out a gun.
\' I guess this guy doesn\'t have any ability, and that gun looks unusual. Anyway, Zero do you know how these two burly men are planning to use us as bait? And what if some person don\'t get any ability, will they remain weak? \'
Lucian questioned in his mind, he was standing close to the two guys out of which one was already unconscious and now even the silent guy seemed to be trembling in fear.
[ Even if these red creatures have a leader but they would still go crazy whenever they see a dead body, I\'m sure you can understand the rest.
And no, even if some people don\'t receive any abilities they will throw stronger as they evolve and they would be able to use the Fog in different ways. ]
Reading that Lucian looked around and noticed that both the porters that had died earlier, both of their bodies were missing and they were both probably dragged into the liquid of the pond.
\' Tch I can\'t fight them while protecting these two, I guess I would have to use the rest of the porters as baits. \' the 2nd burly man thought, only six of them remained now.
*BOOOOOOM*
A loud explosion sounded and they all instinctively looked towards it, the first burly man charged the metallic batons he was holding and then blasted them close to the red fiend\'s body.
*KRRRRRR*
Several cracks had appeared over the skin of the red fiend and it was thrown back, but the burly man seemed to have used quite a bit of energy.
He is still at the 1st phase of evolution and close to the 2nd phase, if he could manage to kill the red fiend then he would immediately be able to evolve, but same was the case with the boss of the red creatures.
They were both fighting for their lives and to evolve into something much stronger.
Their battle looked so dazzling that unconsciously all the people standing in the distance were just staring at it, that is until another loud scream sounded and then two porters were pulled into the pond at the same time.
" Fuck now there are only four left, I have to do it now. " The 2nd burly man shouted.
Out of the remaining people, the rich guy was unconscious, the 1st burly man was fighting the boss fiend, the 2nd burly man was protecting the two brothers, the silent guy also didn\'t seem to be in a good shape, he was also on the ground and seemed to have fallen unconscious by now.
Out of the four remaining porters one was unconscious, Lucian was standing beside Jackie who also seemed quite afraid and the third porter seemed to have frozen.
" This is part of your job, help me save them. " The burly man shouted then he pointed his gun towards one of the porters and without giving him any time he pulled the trigger.
*BANG*
The porter died in an instant with ever lasting regrets, he just needed some money and now the money itself became the cause of his death ultimately.
*THUD*
" W- What is he d- doing? " Jackie screamed in fear, before he was only afraid of the red creature but now even this man seemed like a devil.
" Sorry for sending you off while you are not conscious, but maybe this is for the better. " Then the burly man pointed his gun towards the unconscious porter and pulled the trigger again.
*BANG*
Sensing that the burly man had turned to the other side, one of the red creatures swam in the pond, inside that liquid their speed was much faster, all of a sudden it launched an attack towards Lucian and Jackie who were standing closer.
\' No matter where I look, only death awaits. \' Lucian thought.
He sensed something approaching from behind, instead of pouncing onto Lucian and Jackie the small red creature planned to use its tail to kill them together and then pull them into the liquid just like it had done before.
Using all his strength Lucian rotated his body anti clockwise with so much force he began to fall down, the pointy tail of the creature scratched his arm but it was not able to penetrate his body.
" Ahhhhhhhhhhhh COUGH COUGH " But Jackie was not even able to see the tail coming, as it tore through his belly and came out on the other side.
Then the creature instantly tried to pull Jackie\'s body into the pond along with its tail, but hastily Lucian rose to his feet, stretching his arm he got a hold of Jackie\'s clothes and then Lucian pulled him back.
Hearing the sound from behind the 2nd burly man turned around and saw that Jackie was injured, while keeping the two unconscious guys close he stepped towards Lucian and Jackie.
\' Tch I won\'t be able to use them as bait if they die because of the poison, looks like both of them were hit. \' the burly man thought as he looked at Jackie\'s belly and Lucian\'s arm.
" Use this, it is an antidote. " The burly man spoke as he took out an injection and threw it towards Lucian, then he decided to take a look at Jackie\'s wound, wondering if he could still be used.
Raising Jackie\'s body with one hand, the burly man pulled his shirt upwards to look at the wound on his belly, Lucian slowly moved behind Jackie whose breathing had almost stopped.
\' Fuck, the poison had alread- \'
*PLUNGE*
All of a sudden, something tore through Jackie\'s body from behind and was directly plunged into the burly man\'s chest.
