Chapter 160 - Dragon Tears (1/2)
The True infected didn't last long, as Ray pulled his hand back out from its chest, it instantly collapsed onto the floor. Now that the Infected person had collapsed, they all had a clear view of the person behind it. The man they had met back at the arena named Nes.
Of course, Jack, Badger and Sloth watching the whole thing knew it was really Ray. Ray then quickly cast his shadow skills before disappearing back deeper into the cave and away from the others.
”Who was that?” Ann asked.
”It was really him, he saved us again. He was the one who scared away the Dark guild leader.” Martha explained.
”He protected us, just like he said he would,” Dan said looking at the infected body. ”We're saved.”
Martha and Dan had only recently joined the Red wings, their main reason for joining was protection. They were scared of the things the academy was hiding and scared of the people after their life. After learning that Nes was the leader they immediately agreed to join.
They were still sceptical about whether or not Nes would be able to save them when they needed him to but somehow, someway, Nes had once again saved their lives.
Deeper in the cave where no light could be seen, Ray was sitting down with part of the cave wall up against his back. He was sat in complete darkness alone. His hands were placed on top of his head and he didn't know how to feel right now.
Ray wanted to meet the true infected before anyone would get to him, before the two groups split up Ray cast his skill doppelganger, that way he would be able to help the two groups if they were in desperate need. The only thing he had to choose now was which group to send his true self with.
It was a gamble but Ray felt like the True infected had purposely let himself be seen by the others when entering the cave in the mountains, so Ray chose to go with Ann's group while hiding in the shadows as Nes.
When he saw the True infected this time it was completely different from the times before. With the evolution, Ray's dragon eyes skill also became stronger but there was one thing Ray could always see when looking at a True infected and that was his father's yellow aura around his heart.
When Ray looked at the True infected in the cave just now, there wasn't a hint left of his father inside, he had been completely taken over. Ray didn't want his father to suffer anymore he had to finish the True infected there and then.
Ray could see the True infected was powerful, more powerful than he was even with the evolution but its mind was focused on something else. Ray started to gather the Ki from his team members to launch a single surprise attack.
Ray's body could now handle a total of 200 mana points without feeling a strain on his body but he needed more power than that to defeat the True infected. He gathered a total of 300 points from all the members of the Academy and then in one strike, aimed for the most concentrated part of shadows, the heart.
Ray was still sat in the corner trying to get a hold of his emotions, images of him and his father as a child training together started to pop in his head and finally for the first time since he had turned into a human. Tears started to roll down his face.
Ray stood up and screamed at the top of his lungs. The place started to vibrate with the sound of his almighty roar. It sounded similar to when Ray would cast his Dragon's roar skill, only this time there was no buff to his teammates.
”What was that noise?” Dan asked.
”I don't know but our mission has been accomplished, let's go and grab the body,” Ann said
