Chapter 24 (1/2)

The moonlight was like water.
In the woods.
Standing still, both Thulhu and Donald could see each other’s faces. They were like two statues: unable to move, unable to speak.
Thulhu could see confusion, fear, and the struggle in Donald’s eyes.
Snap!
Donald took a step forward, and a tree branch snapped under his foot. Donald moved!
Of course, Donald still wasn’t able to move on his own. It was the shadow that was manipulating him. Donald walked closer and closer to Thulhu and his hands reached out to grab Thulhu’s throat.
The shadow’s target this time was Thulhu?
Thulhu was shocked. The shadow knew that he was investigating this!
Donald was still moving closer and closer to Thulhu like a puppet.
Thulhu couldn’t let this happen.
He took a glance at his attributes panel and used the berserk spell – Tiger Power!
[Tiger Power: Strength +0.4! Duration: 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, the subject will suffer the effects of enervation for three hours! Strength -0.2; Constitution -0.2!]
If this didn’t work, Thulhu would put all the XP he had now into upgrading his Maga Fighting.
Suddenly, he started howling!
As soon as he cast the berserk spell, he felt warmth flow through his body, giving him great power!
Thulhu’s strength only increased by 0.4 from practicing Maga Fighting, but now the number had doubled!
How incredible was this boost?
The veins on Thulhu’s forehead bulged one by one, and his build looked even bigger now. He shouted, “Fuck off!”
His voice rolled in the woods.
Like rumbling thunder.
Bang!
The entangled shadow was like a rope stretched to its limit. Suddenly, it snapped in the middle.
Then, the shadow quickly retreated and disappeared into the woods.
Thulhu was now twice as strong as an ordinary adult. The strength helped him get rid of the restraint and allowed him to move again.
As if some heavy burden had suddenly been lifted off his shoulders, Donald collapsed to the ground.
“Stay there!”
To make the most of the 30 seconds, Thulhu shot out like an arrow.
Bang!
He stomped on the ground with one foot, leaving behind a small indent. Using the momentum, Thulhu chased the shadow deep into the woods.
As a warrior whose biggest advantage was his muscles, Thulhu had to get closer to the shadow!
The wind was blowing.
Like a lion, the king of beasts, Thulhu jostled and elbowed his way through the trees.
Finally, a few hundred meters away from where they had fought, Thulhu saw a figure in the distance.
The person was staying low in the bushes and shrubs. When the shadow went back into the person’s body, the person groaned. “Damn…”
The spell had just backfired on the caster!
Seeing that, Thulhu got very excited and hurriedly drew closer.
Based on his own experience, failing to cast a spell would more or less cause a backlash and injure the caster.
And this was Thulhu’s best chance! Now!
He was getting closer and closer.
100 meters!
50 meters!
20!
Thulhu could already see the nice figure of the woman. Yes, he was sure that it was a woman!
This was the best chance ever!
Thulhu’s heart was beating fast. He made up his mind to finish this here!
The mysterious caster! The shadow which killed Beatrice! The murderer who tried to turn Thulhu into her scapegoat!
He wasn’t going to have a conversation with her. Things had gone way past that point!
Thulhu had to kill her. He knew it.
