On The Brink Of Death
Conrad teleported away, appearing at a completely different and unfamiliar location. As soon as he appeared, Conrad quickly scanned the environment in search of something but immediately stopped after seeing something that shocked him completely.Ahead, just a few feet from Conrad, stood Cale, who had his back to the security bureau officer. He didn’t turn to look around and see who had arrived, but it wasn’t because Cale didn’t want to—it was because he couldn’t.Why could Cale not turn around though?The answer was quite simple really… because right now there was a hole in Cale’s chest through which he was being lifted into the air by a large tree root that had completely pierced his body.Seeing all this, Conrad, who had just arrived, was totally shocked and unable to react appropriately at all. Like a statue, Conrad just stood there while Cale bled out through his chest.…Let us rewind time a little to just a few moments ago…At this time, Cale was quickly making his way down the
Exotic Beast… Defeated!
Huh!“Something’s wrong…”Back in the main battlefield, Conrad, who was battling the exotic beast’s main body, suddenly sensed something that drew his attention, causing his actions to pause accordingly as he tried to detect what was wrong.With Conrad stopping his actions, his attacks on the exotic beast’s main body also ceased, leaving only Trevor and his men attacking alone.Noticing this, Trevor looked over at Conrad and quickly yelled at him, “Hey, why’d you stop attacking? Hurry and finish what you want to do so we can finally defeat this thing.”Unfortunately, Conrad showed no reaction to Trevor’s words. He continued to stand in place, motionless, while observing the exotic beast closely.Seeing this, Trevor swore to himself, “Damn! How dare you ignore me like this, and why the hell are you not doing anything again? If you don’t make a move I don’t think we’ll be able to hold off this beast.”Although Trevor was swearing at Conrad in his heart, he was more panicked than annoyed
Home-Run
Huff, huff, huff!Cale’s breathing was labored, his breath coming in short gasps as his chest heaved heavily up and down from all the running he had been doing.The exotic beast’s roots were relentless in their pursuit of Cale, their strong and slender bodies crackling like whips, tearing through the air and slicing up any obstacles in their path.In the beginning, the roots were a single unit—just one large piece of over-manured twig that later split off into numerous little spiky roots that attacked from every possible direction like a swarm of heat-seeking missiles.Cale had only managed to survive so long against these attacks by using the trees surrounding him as cover to block and slow down the roots. Yet, as if realizing Cale’s tactic, the roots changed once again—this time cutting down everything in their path, forging a direct route to Cale that he could not avoid.Currently, Cale was hiding out in a rocky outcropping somewhere in the forest. They were already a far distance
The Truth
“What in the blazes! Why’s it attacking me? I didn’t provoke it or anything!”Seeing the tentacle-like root shooting straight for him, Cale was dumbfounded as thousands of expletives went off inside his head, cursing the exotic beast for its shamelessness and the unmitigated attention it was suddenly showing him.“Damn tree, why don’t you focus on the ones attacking you and leave me alone!”Jumping to the side, Cale managed to avoid the first attack of the exotic beast, but that wasn’t the end. Although the large tree root missed its target, it continued moving forward without stopping, only to suddenly make a turn in the air as it returned to attack Cale. This time, the tip of the root actually splintered off into three parts.“What!”Surprised, Cale watched as the three individual smaller roots traced an arc in the air and attacked him from three different directions, blocking all routes of escape so that he was forced to face them head-on.“That’s just not fair!”Finding a gap in t
It’s You 1
Cale was cursing his bad luck today. He felt that the whole world was definitely against him, trying its very best to screw with all his plans at every turn he took.Right now, Cale was being hurled back by three Hive operatives that had been sent to recover him after he tried to escape. They were returning to the original location where it was clear a massive battle was taking place.As they drew nearer, the magnitude of the battle became even clearer as Cale and the others could feel the impact of the attacks affecting the environment, despite them still being a bit far from the center.“Look, you fools, can’t you see what’s going on over there? Do you really want to go back there so that we’ll also be implicated in whatever is going on, huh?”Cale shouted at the three guys that were herding him along like cattle, trying to get them to stop heading for that place that was clearly dangerous. But what Cale got in return was a kick from behind by one of the men.“Shut up, kid. You’re n
It’s You
[Sacrifice!]Some time into the battle, the exotic beast, who was driven into a corner, was forced to perform a drastic move.The battle had only been commencing for less than five minutes, and during this time, many of the surviving Hive operatives had become blood bags for the exotic beast, who used them to replenish its lost vitality. As a result, fewer than ten Hive operatives were remaining, including Trevor, but now they were also attacking the exotic beast alongside Conrad in order to take it down quickly.This ended up making things inconvenient for the exotic beast. It was already losing, but the addition of Trevor’s group—although less threatening to it—was endlessly annoying.Therefore, the exotic beast planned to retreat using a move that would leave it in a severely weakened state for a very long time.This move was called sacrificing and was the same one it had used in the very beginning during the beast tide that had allowed it to sneak into the fortress undetected.By
