Chapter 152: Game Over (1/2)
Chapter 152: Gay buildup in the skeleton, effusing into a bright green light, and deterle second to deal with the inco explosion
Yet, even as the Voice saw this development, it could not help but feel disappointed Yes, the Kindred had been surprised, but was this truly it?
Because even froh the incoh to co less than absolute destruction was needed to sever the Voice's connection to it
Was this truly all a Kindred could do? A Kindred that could harness the powers of the Outer to a far greater degree than the Voice itself?
No, the Voice realized This was more than to be expected in the first place fro the powers they wielded
It was a good thing that this Kindred would fall here now Before they came to understand their true nature
The Voice instantly tossed the skeleton far into the sky with a charge of energy crackling across its body accelerating the h-speed throw instantly sent the skeleton away, and even in just one second, the skeleton was far enough up in the air where its explosion would not reach the Voice
A gleail on the skeleton's skull shone before the skeleton detonated, disintegrating in a nova of explosive energy that did not even touch the Voice
"Is this it, Kindred?" wondered the Voice as it raised its aruard from the explosion's shockwave "Is this truly-,"
The Voice stopped and froze as its vision instantly blurred in a flash of static Its connection to its vessel was severing It looked down at its sto flesh lined with curved spikes had bored through it, co past the durable shell and flesh with complete and utter ease
When the Voice traced the arround?
"For a mysterious entity, you do talk a lot," said Aldrich as he eh rock "But this-,"
As he stood up, chunks of earth scattering around him, he raised Shrimp up by the stoa around his right arht below his forear [Hand of the Blood God]
"[Exsanguis]" chanted Aldrich, and the [Hand of the Blood God] fully activated
Shrimp's body convulsed before dozens of spikes of his own blood ruptured out fro into solidified, fleshy bluehearts
This was the strongest stitching that Volantis possessed, hewn from a literal God of blood whose touch was said to be able to kill anything of flesh and blood by not si the soul from its physical shell
Aldrich had not wanted to use this stitching tonight, but he had been left with no choice Seeing Shriain with the aid of this new entity, he knew that to end this fight, he needed uaranteed instant kill effect that would take effect in a singlebetter for that than the [Hand of the Blood God], an attack of the 11th Circle tier, which, along with the 12th tier, were considered in lore to be spells and skills in the real landscapes or enacting devastating single target effects like this
At the sa
Aldrich took severe da up to over 30 of his maximum health just to activate this ability, and he could not keep the ared froh Aldrich's body, visually showcasing this dae
Even Volantis could not handle the strain well, let alone while being attached to Aldrich
This truly was an all or nothing attack with a cost fitting for its power
"…How?" h a spike of blue blood protruded fro out supernaturally
Hoas it? It was not that complicated All of his units had been blasted away by Shrimp's sudden explosion All except the Antlion who retreated deep underground, and, with the aid of rock above it acting like a bunker, had survived the blast
From there, Seismic had stepped in to distract the Voice Aldrich had manually controlled the Antlion to ht it, and when the Antlion was in position, Aldrich had signaled for Seismic to leave the scene
