Chapter 284 - Conversion (1/2)

Nik counted a total of seven zombies targeting him. How the zombies could locate him other than their visual senses was still elusive to Nik. But what he knew was that he only needs to stay in this world for nineteen more days and he will be eligible to leave once this mission is completed.

Yesterday, Nik had concluded that his pheromones and mind manipulation had no effects on these barely sentient beings. So, instead of sending these zombies off with a happy smile on their faces as they rode the other dead, Nik had to take another approach.

Just like he informed the girls, this was a good training opportunity. So, instead of brutally smashing the zombies, Nik decided to use his gravity manipulation for the first target.

Now, aside from the obvious effect on his physique by the increase of the gravity during the various instances in the day, Nik observed that what limited the extension of the said gravitational force on himself wasn't his muscles and bones, it was his internal organs. Even with all the enhancement in his vitality, his internal organs could barely endure a total of twenty strands of gravitational force.

Now, if this limit is increased, then the result would obviously be fatal.

With a snap of his fingers, Nik converged ten strands of gravitational force and concentrated it over the head of the targetted Zombie.

Pccht!

Instead of pressuring the head of the zombie in a unilateral direction, Nik adjusted the strands in a circular pattern. With the force of gravity focused on the center of the zombie's face, Nik rotated the strands of gravity and instantly, the pressure on the target's face increased due to the spiral motion.

End Result— The Zombie fell on the ground headless, attracting the attention of other Zombies as the rotten stench filled the area.

Silently, Nik closed in on the converging group of Zombies with their fallen ally as the center and waited for them to tear and devour it, only to find several pairs of hands slowly clawing out of the ground.

Not willing to take any sort of chance even when the opponents were weak, Nik instantly mobilized the strands of gravity over the six Zombies that were practically upon each other, vying for a part of the fallen zombie and crushed their bodies into a gory mess. With their blood splattering around from the impact, corroding the grass and polluting the land by a slight margin.

The sound of grass being stepped over rang around Nik as he observed a total of five zombies surrounding him. Taking care of them, too, was easy. Still, Nik left one of the Zombies intact and closed in on him as he relished the meat of his fallen brethren.

After his breakthrough in the breath of gravity, Nik found his insights into the breathing technique as a whole leaping extraordinarily. Especially, The Breath of War God.

He could devour negative Hamon to corrupt into its positive counterpart and reinforce is physique. The main concept behind the Breath of War God was its concept of conversion. Nik did not have the slightest inkling on its operation until he finally managed to create the very first form of his Breath of Gravity.

As the oblivious zombie chewed on the rotten meat, Nik gazed at the back of his head with a dispassionate gaze and let his neutral energy flood out, covering the zombie as a tangible, white barrier formed over the body of the Zombie.

The basis of conversion of the Breath of War God was the Positive Hamon. In essence, he could apply a similar operation to the rotten energy seeping within the body of the zombies. Ordinarily, this plan would have been stumped with no way of identifying and acquiring the opposite of the energy that resembled death in such a literal manner.

Fortunately, this obstacle may be conquered by the use of his neutral energy.
