BXBX NOVEL Chapter 89 - Slaughter Part4
Chapter 89 - Slaughter Part4
Qin Hua activated her skills [Sprint] and [Blending into Darkness] and roamed around the ample auditorium space.
Inside the stadium, the building was very structured and categorized into smaller rooms for various purposes, such as the ticketing area, bathrooms, restaurants, shops, etc.
This made it a lot easier for her to hide and attack from the shadows, catching smaller groups of goblins by surprise.
In just a few minutes, she managed to take down about twenty or so goblins single-handedly, her stats constantly increasing with each green creature she mauled.
Unexpectedly, other than the stat gain, Qin Hua also noticed something new.
After the first couple of goblin mana cores she absorbed, she began to notice how the mana from the cores could also be circulated through the body the same way she circulated the mana from the breathing exercises.
She was even beginning to sense a feeling of fullness.
Qin Hua could tell that she was very close to forming a mana core, which could be critical in the brawl that awaited her.
She might have easily taken care of a few of the goblins inside when they were not grouped together, but she was not a fool to think that she could just as easily take care of the giant army outside.
Forming a mana core could potentially push her chances of winning much higher, and she needed every advantage that she could get.
Engrossed in deep thought, Qin Hua once again wandered outside as no more goblins were present within the stadium building. Most of the creatures were participating in their victory celebration around the bonfire.
Her eyes darted here and there and fell on a group of five goblins on the northern side near the gate, taking care of a pack of wild dogs. They were a bit far away from the main group but not too far that killing them wouldn\'t create a commotion.
So Qin Hua silently observed for a moment before she thought of an idea. The big black dog quietly slipped into a shadow and sneaked out of the stadium.
Meanwhile… On the terrace, Lu Chen quickly grabbed Guan Ye, who stood near him, his face contorted weirdly. "Ye. Ye. Look there. Do you see little white?"
Huh? Guan Ye was confused by the sudden remark, and he snapped out of his trance, looking in the direction where Lu Chen pointed.
While both of them were watching, another goblin carrying a sickle wandered close to a corner of the stadium.
It had caught the scent of something and looked around as if it was searching for that something. The next instant, it suddenly dropped its weapon and clutched its throat in pain.
A big black paw popped out of the shadow nearby and ripped it into two. Another paw emerged and pulled the two halves of the corpse into the nearby bushes.
"That\'s little white."
"That\'s little white." Guan Ye excitedly muttered.
The two of them exchanged glances and almost at the same time muttered.
"Can I use ice magic from here?"
"How far does your ice magic work?"
The two of them bitterly smiled and nodded.
Guan Ye turned to look at Qin Hua\'s clone and pointed. "Umm… little white\'s… this guy is right here. So maybe your ice magic can also work?"
"Yes. It is worth trying. But I have to be careful. I should not give up our location or little white\'s presence. We have to be very cautious here."
Lu Chen focused on one of the trees near the stadium and tried to freeze its leaves.
Schickk!
Immediately, a layer of frost formed around the leaf, and the solid leaf broke and fell on the ground.
"Hey. Look there. A zombie is walking towards the stadium. Get that." Guan Ye pointed in the other direction, and Lu Chen quickly targeted it as well.
He aimed a small ice bullet this time and sent it to its head with as much speed and energy as he could muster.
The bullet screeched through the air, and before either of them could blink, it accurately hit the middle of the zombie\'s head.
"Brother, what the hell is with that aim??? Were you a trained soldier or something?" Even Guan Ye, someone who did not speak much, couldn\'t help himself and exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Chen scratched his head. He was also not sure how he managed to accomplish that, but the good news was that he could make long-range attacks.
"Alright. You keep an eye on little white and see if she needs our help. Let me first try this a few times and check if I can properly control the attacks." Lu Chen rolled his shoulders and prepared to send out the next ice bullet.
The last bullet had hit the target, but it was not big enough to do any real damage. So he wanted to try a few combinations and determine an ideal size to speed ratio for the bullet attack.
Lu Chen gazed at the zombie waddling and roaring in the distance, not happy with the bullet size hole in its head. He took a couple of breaths and aimed for its throat this time.
Three small icicles materialized next to him and as he exhaled his next breath, all three of them zoomed forward, slicing through the air and once again accurately hit the staggering zombie.
Bang. Bang. Bang.
Its body couldn\'t withstand the attacks at all and the three bullets ended up tearing its throat apart. Its head was completely torn from its torso and was now just hanging by a thread of flesh.
Lu Chen could even see the shining mana core at the top of the torso like a cherry on a cake. "This should work." He nodded solemnly.
When he was about to search for targets to practice on, Guan Ye once again grabbed him.
"Chen. Quick. Look here. I think little white is up to something."
The two of them then stared at the big black dog who was now well outside the stadium, but unlike before she was no longer hiding in the shadows.
