Chapter 81: Diamond

THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD…

The front line was the first to collide!

The Bogus at the front fell face first into the lava, releasing strange noises.

Bogus behind them didn’t react and just kept falling one over another, before long all of them had fallen.

Yet their feet kept moving rapidly, kicking each other but still not stopping.

’How did so many of these guys even reach the 2nd Origin?’ Neil wondered, as he activated Aquamorph again.

“According to the research, even their evolution is related to running, as they haven’t been seen even eating once.” Nemo replied.

Though every place they have appeared in has been soon destroyed, so little information was found on these Bogus.

A thick and big layer of fluid suddenly rose before Neil, almost becoming a tide as it softly swept over all the Bogus, drowning them inside.

Since they were swinging their legs quickly, many even started to float up.

“Harden!” Neil suddenly changed the property of the fluid, making it as tough as possible.

It was like cement, freezing all the Bogus instantly.

The Bogus still desperately tried to move their feet, almost as if running was equivalent to breathing for them.

Very few of the strongest managed to move their feet slightly but one by one the rest paused.

[You have killed a 2nd Origin Bronze Class Bogu!]

[You have killed a 1st Origin Gold Class Bogu!]

[You have killed a 2nd Origin Silver Class Bogu!]

…

Within moments hundreds of messages popped before Neil who stood there stupefied.

Could killing high ranked creatures be so easy? Was he dreaming?

He stared in bewilderment as one by one, most of the Bogus stopped moving completely.

Pulling out the elemental bow, he used the darkness arrow to pierce the heads of the few that managed to remain alive.

[You have killed a 2nd Origin Gold Class Bogu!]

[You have killed a 2nd Origin Gold Class Bogu!]

…

“There is one even at the Diamond class?!!” Neil stared in utter shock as despite the hard surroundings, one Bogu kept moving as if nothing was wrong.

Any of the corpses that came in its way were just kicked aside directly.

“I have to kill it!!” Neil was filled with excitement and intense killing intent as he watched that one Bogu running quickly, tearing apart corpses.

Its body was actually exactly similar to all the others, the only difference was the scales at its feet.

[Stack: 3/3]

Neil poured as much energy as possible as an arrow made of water began to take shape.

Intense energy swirled around him, Neil poured more and more of his energy, emptying more than half of his cores.

This was a Diamond class creature, despite its lack of fighting skills, its defense would certainly be very high.

Nature always balanced things in strange ways.

Neil aimed at the eye of the Diamond Bogu, even if this strike failed, he would do anything to kill it.

The water arrow grew bigger and bigger, the color of its tip changing rapidly as it absorbed more and more essence.

Stacked with three times the strength, it was finally ready.

BANG!

With a loud sonic boom, it shot forward with immense force, blasting away the surrounding snow.

Then the lava was thrown in all directions wherever the arrow passed by.

The Diamond Bogu didn’t pause or try to dodge as the arrow twisted and struck into its eye directly.

BOOOM

Its eye directly turned into mush, the skin cracking as the arrow half submerged into its head.

DRRRRIIIIEEEE

The Diamond Bogu let out an ear piercing scream, one that even made Neil in the distance frown.

But the water arrow didn’t do much damage.

The specialty of the water arrow was not its direct damage, instead it carried a force that was mostly transferred to the insides of whatever it struck.

Right after piercing into its eye, the arrow came to a halt and shot out deadly shockwaves, directly damaging the Bogu’s brain and insides.

It kept screaming, despite the level of damage still not dying.

Gritting his teeth, Neil put all his might and…

[Sonic Activated!]

A wave of mental energy struck the Bogu, since its strength was higher than Neil’s so it wasn’t outright killed.

But just froze instead, unable to move, though its legs still didn’t pause.

[Agility Lock Activated!]

[Agility Lock Target Selected!]

Instantly the Bogu’s speed decreased by a big margin, the mental shock kept it frozen for over 30 seconds.

Which was a pleasant surprise for Neil.

Neil put away the elemental bow and took out the dual blades, sprinting towards the Bogu.

Thankfully it wasn’t attacking back or Neil would be running away just as quickly.

[Slimemorph Activated!]

Dozens of slimes rose in the distance, each forming from the lava.

Even the Slimemorph had gotten stronger, now the slimes didn’t just disappear after carrying out one order.

Even if Neil gave multiple orders, they would fulfill them all, at max ten though.

BOOM BOOM BOOM

The slimes quickly jumped towards the Bogu, striking its feet.

But instead of bursting, Neil changed their property, making them extremely sticky.

It didn’t do much but slightly slowed down the Bogu.

Veins bulged all over his body as Neil used all his strength and began to quickly slash at the Bogu’s body, while running at full speed.

CLANG CLANG

Most strikes didn’t even put a scratch, as Neil searched for its weakness.

’There really is such a big difference between me and a Diamond class, it’s just a walking target yet so hard to kill.’ Neil held back from transforming into a phantom, and burst with even more strength.

WHOOSH WHOOSH

The heat made Neil’s feet burn, his clothes were starting to catch fire, the magma burning his skin.

But he endured the torment and slashed with fury, imagining his worst enemies, his parents, the snake madwoman, the lizardmen.

Bluish blood soon started to pour down the Bogu’s body, more and more blood seeping out.

Holding the two blades upside down, he jumped forward and then stabbed them both into the Bogu’s eyes, gathering every bit of strength.

The blades were covered with dangerous toxins, he used every possible way to kill it.

FAAAAAAAAAAAH!!

The Bogu screamed, swinging its head even while running.

[Sonic!]

It froze, as Neil pulled the blades, clinging to its body as he began to stab again and again like a madman.

He was drenched in blue blood.

The Bogu was moving forward with such force that Neil felt it alone would be enough to tear him up, that alone was its offensive ability.

It was such a strange sight, a bloody and terrifying sight.

Plunging the blades deep, Neil began to punch the blades with all his might.

As the time for Sonic ended, the Bogu’s body suddenly jerked as it let out a painful screech.

Losing his balance, Neil slipped.

THUD

The Bogu struck his torso, tossing him into the distance as the sound of his ribs cracking rang out.

But twisting his body in the air, Neil landed on his feet, his shoes were already gone, his skin burning by the lava.

Yet Neil’s heart thumped with intense bloodlust, his body craving the deadly wild fight.

Unknowingly, his lips stretched into a twisted smile.

The blades were still stuck in the Bogu’s eyes.
