Chapter 221: What Kind of Creature Is that? (1/2)
”How could this be”, Rex mumbles in horror.
With three high ranks Awakened that should be on standby guarding the Great Barricade here, it makes the Great Barricade defenseless.
Two high rank Awakened just went past Beah City,
They're currently fending off the demons in Benrith City that is a setup made by the demons.
In a fit of anger, Rex jumped down and started to kill the four-armed demons that are coming towards him without any hesitation.
His mind is occupied by the shocking realization, 'We got played by the demons!', Rex thought.
<Killed a Peak Rank Four Supernatural, Obtained 100,000 Exp>
<Killed an Early Rank Five Supernatural, Obtained 300,000 Exp>
<Killed an Early-
<Level Up!>
<Obtained 3 Attributable Stats!>
The system kept giving him notifications as he killed the coming demons easily, his level even gone up but his mind is still devastated.
If the Great Barricade got breached then small cities will not be safe anymore.
Supernatural will have the direct means to enter the human territory, and they will surely use this to spread terror as far as they can.
But then suddenly,
CRACK!!
”Hmm?!”, Rex widened his eyes in surprise.
His arm suddenly makes a cracking sound as his bones broke, it makes him stunned for a second before a four-armed demon hacks him with its battle-ax.
BAM!!
Rex's body got slammed to the ground and bounce back because of the attack,
”Arghh!”, Rex grunted as blood leaked on the corner of his mouth, it's evident that the attack from the four-armed demons somehow manage to hurt him.
The fight he had with the Winged Demon surely takes a toll on him,
The energy blast that he manage to block thanks to his Werewolf Form is a powerful one, and thus his arm got badly injured and thus broken by the exchange.
ROAR!!
Rex opened his eyes and saw the demon already leaped towards him, He side roll to the side to avoid the four-armed demons' attack.
BOOM!
The ground cracked because of the attack,
But his broken arm didn't completely erase his fighting capability,
BAM!
Rex kicks the four-armed demon's head as it explodes like a watermelon, he then stands back up and sees the surrounding with heavy eyes.
In the center of the city, he saw a blue demon floating above a skyscraper building.
Its body is surrounded by blue fire, and the blue fire emits terrifying energy that even makes Rex feel his legs tremble upon feeling it.
He then scans the levitating demon,
<Vulvaztih Demon Puppet>
Race: Vulvazith Demon
Power: Rank Six(Early)
Mental: 100
Strength: 327
Agility: 299
Endurance: 512
Intelligence: 256
Looking at this, it confirms what Rex realize before.
'Rank Six? But this terrifying aura shows otherwise', Rex thought.
He then asks the system, 'System, Scan any object, rune, or even spell that makes that weak demon have such terrifying aura'
<Touching the demon is required for scanning>
Reading this, Rex sigh because he can't possibly touch it.
But nevertheless, that levitating demon is just like its name is a puppet demon that somehow emits a terrifying aura that tricks the humans into sending powerful Awakened.
In reality, it's just a measly early rank six demon with below-average stats.
The four-armed demons that invaded the city are only left with a handful, Rex killed most of them, Kyran and Edward probably killed the rest while going out.
”I need to go to Benrith City to tell them about the situation but”, Rex saw the demons he fought before starting to regenerate.
It's the demonic ground that came out of nowhere, it supply the demons with demonic energy.
RAAHH!
Another four-armed demon leaped towards Rex as its body got healed, Rex elbowed the demons and shatter its skull again.
”I didn't get any Exp”, Rex thought with a frown.
He then added, ”The demons I killed will not give me any exp even if they revived, what a bummer”, Rex then open the system's shop.
With his broken left arm, Rex's fighting capabilities will weaken.
There are still humans hiding inside the city that need to be saved, and Rex planned to take them all out before he left the city.
He then bought a healing elixir from the shop,
An elixir appeared on his hand with a green substance in it, he popped it as Kyran and Edward appeared from around the corner.
They saw Rex's condition when suddenly, Kyran's eyes darted to the right.
He senses two creatures that suddenly appeared from the middle of the city, ”REX!! WATCH OUT!!”, he shouted to warn Rex.
SWOOSH!!
Rex heard Kyran's shout, he also felt something approaching him from the back, but he sense it late because of the condition he's in,
STAB!!
Three claws pierced through Rex's abdomen cleanly, ”HUAKHH!”
Rex spat a mouthful of blood as he got lifted from the ground, he grits his teeth trying to endure the throbbing pain on his abdomen.
He looks back slowly and saw another winged demon stabbing him from the back.
'There are two Winged Demons?!', Rex thought in surprise.
The winged demon lean closer to Rex's ear and said with clear anger, ”You must be the one that killed him”
Hearing this, Rex smiles mockingly, ”What are you gonna do about it?”
SRKKH!
The winged demon pierced Rex's stomach deeper making Rex groan in pain, ”Your life is under my mercy, so wipe that smug face of yours!”, the winged demon said harshly.
”LET GO OF HIM!!”
CLANG!
CLANG!!
Edward and Kyran leaped towards the winged demon to try to help Rex,
Their bodies glow with a different energy as they put their all in attacking the winged demon, but the disparity between their strength is too far.
”FIRE TITAN ART! COLOSSAL PUNCH!”
BAM!!
Edward pours all of his mana into one attack,
The attack landed solidly on the winged demon's back, but Edward widened his eyes in surprise when he saw the winged demon is not hurt at all.
It didn't even budge on its spot, the winged demon can hardly feel it.
Kyran is also not going to stand still, he leaped towards the claws that the winged demon use to stab Rex and hit it a couple of times to no avail,
His try in breaking the winged demon's claw is futile,
Even Edward with blazing fire enveloping his daggers can't do anything to the winged demon, but he kept swinging his daggers desperately.
SWOOSH!!
The winged demon flicks its tail and sends Edward and Kyran flung away.
It didn't need to try at all, the winged demon just flicks its tail gently as Kyran and Edward get sent crashing away like ants.
”Watch as I kill your friends”, the winged demon whispers to Rex brutally.
But then suddenly,
