Chapter 292 The Dead Dog (1/2)
After Darren had killed the double-headed mutant, he took his corpse and quietly walked back.
”I never thought that you were so strong, Darren! You just killed a double-headed monster all by yourself!” Tom looked at Darren in awe. He initially thought that Darren's strength was only a little superior to his, but the fact made it clear to him that Darren was not only stronger than him, but also much more powerful.
Darren shook his head. ”It was nothing. I would still need to draw the other double-headed monster's attention away. Hurry and go fetch the fruit.”
”Okay, I got it.” Tom nodded once and dashed away.
Darren then walked towards the double-headed man guarding the tree, dragging the dead corpse of the other.
”Ah, my brother!” The other double-headed monster's eyes grew wide in despair.
”I killed him. Don't you want to take revenge?” Darren threw the dead body towards the monster.
The monster narrowed his eyes at Darren. ”Are you trying to lure me away? No way!” The double-headed man was quite smarter than Darren had thought—he did not fall for Darren's trick.
The monster suddenly raised his head towards the sky
and howled like a wolf.
”Damn! He's summoning his pals!” Darren's eyes widened in alarm—he had a bad feeling about what was going to happen. He then immediately charged at the monster, trying to get a head start in the fight before the others arrived.
”Come on, Tom! We can't afford to waste any time!”
Rushing towards the fruit tree, Tom quickened his pace even more.
Boom!
The battle had begun. The double-headed monster was evidently much stronger and much smarter than the previous one. He had a good strategy and was very efficient in his attacks, using strong ones in short intervals, giving Darren no chance to defend himself or counterattack. He was even able to bombard Tom with attacks when fighting Darren. Tom fell down from the tree several times.
The rumbling of numerous heavy footsteps was heard not far ahead—a powerful army of monsters was approaching.
