While the elders were ready to get back into the tower to continue their training, for the time being, the surroundings started to shake seemingly as if an earthquake was happening.However, the five elders immediately understood that it wasn't an earthquake.The surroundings were shaking because of the unique barrier that was being erected around the underground city. They were trying to trap us here like turtles in a jar!Even I could sense that the potency of the barrier was rather high, and I was already quite familiar with the technology of the humanized elves after interacting with it briefly.The five elders looked at each other before nodding and saying:"You two come with us. It's time to witness why we had been appointed as the leaders of the tribe."Sikaw was excited, and I was quite curious about their powers as well. After all, I still needed to have quite a bit of information about them when Ludeus would come with the undead plague.The elders appeared at the entrance of
The technique worked at a cellular level, destroying red and white cells after infecting the targets.Unfortunately, due to Narwa's moral constraints, she hadn't used it after she understood what the technique entailed, thus I had no memory of experiencing it.But the technique involved a lot of high-end medical knowledge, which I had from Narwa, so I could technically use it at its full power even though Narwa didn't.Of course, there would be some kinks and side-effects here and there since Narwa never used it, and she didn't know its power entirely, but I could work them out...For starters, I left the civilian bunker after I made sure every survivor was safe and stabilized before I started to make my way toward the exit of the underground city. I was 100% sure they had already put guards at the exit on the other side, so it was futile to try a stealthy approach. However, the hemoplague magic was an air-based technique, so I could use it through the exit, make it go upward through
As I continued my training inside the tower, Sikaw soon realized why I was improving so quickly as he grabbed me by the shoulders and said:"YOU USED THE HEMOPLAGUE TECHNIQUE?!"It looked like he got that message from the elders above since he looked briefly upward before he confronted me.I nodded at him and said with a serious face:"After I saw what those beasts had done to our civilians, how could I not respond in kind?!"Sikaw couldn't help but take a step backward at those words. he could see the bone-chilling cold in my eyes, and he couldn't help but lower his tone as he chided me slowly:"Do you think you are the only one that awakened that particular magic within his bloodline? The hemoplague is a special guerrilla warfare magic for our tribe, and now you just exposed it extremely early into the war with the humanized elves!"Sikaw wanted to continue chiding, but I slightly cracked my neck and did some arm exercises as I said:"Let's go up and see what the elders have to say
My eyes were lighting up as the blood from the air was permanently gravitating around my body, absorbing it instantly as I continued to unleash a massacre upon the foolish soldiers that made the mistake of abandoning their ranged weapons to get near me. However, I soon realized that the exploding barrier wasn't their only way to poison us. From the blood that I absorbed, I realized that there was a very strong poison being distributed in the enemy's army. The army had strong armor, but the people behind them were considered weak, and when we killed them and absorbed their blood to reinforce our energy and strength, I realized that the blood that infiltrated my body was tainted heavily. The poison had a late activation reaction after the person who ingested it died, so it started to bloom inside the person's blood, organs, etc... Now that we were absorbing their blood, we were intentionally getting poisoned! I shouted to the blood elf army to stop absorbing the enemy's blood, but
The attackers were two generals in similar armor to the first one, but their helmets were quite different as they had no symbols on them, nor were they shaped in any way, making them look very similar to one another.This was most likely a way to confuse the opponent, and I could understand what they were attempting from the first attack, where they tried to cut my head off in a pretty deadly fashion.If I didn't just get the teleportation ring from the fallen general, I might have died then and there.The runic sword I had from Ludeus was quite strong, but the problem was the way it looked and felt evil, so I couldn't use it, having to rest it in its sheath for the upcoming fights. However, the sword I snatched from the general I killed was very good as well.It didn't have the same potential as the sword I had, at least according to Ludeus's words about the sword, but its ability to cut was something that I haven't seen on many weapons, showcasing the runic abilities of the humanize
Before I could think about preventive measures in case Sahrona would descend from her upper city, I could feel a migraine hitting me so hard that I almost fell to my knees.Were these the extra effects of the poison festering inside of me? But my body should have become immune to it by now, so I had to write that off.My danger senses kicked in as I rolled out of the way, however, I was a little bit too slow, and my left arm got cleanly cut off.I could feel some different type of poison starting to interfere with my regenerative capabilities while I tried to draw it out of my body.This time around a lithe elf with a beautiful face, blue eyes, and blonde hair had appeared.From the adam apple at his neck, I could identify his gender, but his body was so lithe and thin that you would think he was a woman at first glance.His speed was immense, and his ability to ambush was also pretty good, there was also the fact that he wasn't wearing any armor at all.He was only wearing a white sh
The moment I started to tear into this elf's body, I could feel the anger of Sahrona being projected into my mind, trying to stop me from what I was doing. However, no matter how hard she tried, she was unable to stop me as my willpower wasn't that weak. I will not bend to anyone when I was at an advantage there. I had the elf's body, and with it, I shall be reborn once more! I could feel the pure energy from his body seeping into mine, coursing through my veins and invading my internal organs. It was a blissful experience if it was to be compared to the first time my body had experienced those changes, but by now, it was already used to it. I could feel my previously stacked bodily strength take one more step forward as it barged through the blockade where I found myself previously. The muscles in my body started to shake and tremble as all of my newly grown organs started to get reinforced a second time, getting closer and closer to the same level as the originals while healing
How did I make the blunder of attacking without thinking? This made me look at Sahrona as a smile appeared on their face while they said: "Can't control your body that well?" Well, that hit the nail concerning my slip-up, but how were they able to control me? I took one step backward and tried to cut their head off, but before I could do so, I heard their pierced heart starting to beat at such a high speed that it made my eardrums bleed! I held my head with one hand while I tried my best to hack their head off with the other, but they had already created some distance between us as they held both of their hands on the closing hole in their armor and chest. The beating stopped, and I tried to narrow the distance, but they took one more step backward as a bunch of elemental arrows spawned around them. Wind, Water, Earth, Lightning, Metal, Fire. 5 Elements, However, they seemed to be lacking wood. This short observation didn't give me enough time to dodge one of the arrows, namel
