Blood Evolution System
chapter-102

After a moment, once the Grim Gore stood up, it charged towards him before throwing a punch towards his figure. Vincent watched the punch coming towards his head, but he stepped forward and slightly to the right when the punch was extremely close as he just barely dodged the attack by a few centimeters. At the same time, he slashed outwards with his daggers, landing a few hits on its body before stepping backward.

Each time it attacked, Vincent would dodge by maneuvering his body at the opportune moment. Also, he would counterattack each time.

He was only targeting certain regions of the monster's leader body, the eyes and upper and lower limbs of its body.

The daggers went through the wound that Vincent already made before, again and again, deepening the lacerations on the negative energy barriers.

The negative energy barrier surrounding its body was fragile compared to the other sides of its body, and Vincent took advantage of this situation pretty severely.

PUCHI

After a few moments, the dagger penetrated through the laceration in the negative energy barrier and deeply stabbed it into the right eyes.

UGH! The obese monster's leader cried out from the pain assaulting its senses as it attacked its tormentor.

Right after stabbing its eyes, Vincent created a blood dome to block the giant fists coming down towards him.

‹ Blood count: 20/50 ›

While the dome of blood was shattering, Vincent's lips thinned into a smile as he stepped back, wisps of red mist coiling around his jeweled dagger and inky, black dagger, both pulsating with magical energy.

At the same time, as the moan of pain sounded in the grassy fields near the cliff, gunfire sounded off continuously.

The sound of amplified bullets made out of beast's bones shattering glass and piercing flesh echoed as Varth took down half of the group of sixteen monsters all on his own

Varth had managed to kill eight out of the sixteen monsters already, yet he found himself in an encase.

He was surrounded from all sides by monsters whose three ruby eyes overflowed with murderous intent.

Yet, there was not a hint of worry on his face.

One could see a solid black purple crystal embed into a triangular-shaped slot, on his battle gear dissolving into a vast amount of energy of the same color.

The battle gear used that energy to generate a unique ability.

At the same time, the monsters surrounding him leaped at him.

A small smile appearing on his face as his battle gear charged up an ability within an instant of a second.

'Showtime.'

The monster's claws were about to tear him apart into pieces, when in that very instant, his figure dissolved into particles of blue and black light as he disappeared under the cloudy night sky.

The claws flew right through the buzzing particles of energy, scattering them apart.

The person that suddenly disappeared appeared a few dozen meters away.

‹ Battle Gear's energy conversion and ability channeling operations are entering a cooldown of five minutes ›

‹ For five minutes, the two functions of the battle gear aren't useable ›

"Now that I can't use it for five minutes, this is gonna take a while," Varth said, aiming his battle gun at the monsters, pulling the trigger, and landing multiple headshots.

Once or thrice could be considered lucky, yet each of the bullets hit the vitals of the monsters, proving that he isn't relying on blind luck rather actual skills honed over the course of many years and countless life and death battles

After another more monster collapsed, Vincent's voice sounded in the area.

"Peter, the attack patterns of these monsters are simple. They will lunge at you to bite or swipe their claws. Evade isn't the best option for this situation as there are two of them. The best defense right now is attacking them with all you got!"

He was aware that Peter was hesitant to take the risks of getting hurt when actually there was little to no chance of getting hurt, so he gave him a push.

"I got it," Peter nodded as the monsters leaper at him.

Following his instructions, rather than stepping back when the monsters leaped at him, Peter stepped forward and smashed his punch on the ribs of one of the two, causing it to crash on the other one.

Peter was having a hard time against two monsters, but after Vincent's guidance, he was able to fight back, beating them black and blue with punches and kicks empowered by battle energy.

Unlike Vincent, who was a jack of all trades but a master of none, Peter had only been physically training combat techniques since forever. The only thing he was good at while fighting was using his fists and kicks, and although his sense of battle was duller than Vincent's, with a lot of guidance, he could become a powerful combat expert.

"There are only a few monsters left," Leila said as she looked at the battlefield, "I should hurry and take care of them."

After taking a deep breath, she activated her abilities.

"Lotus Blizzard!" Leila said as ice energy burst forth from her body, separating into dozens of tiny pieces, each condensing into the shape of a petal.

With a flick of her hand, the tiny petals with sharp ends flew away from the side, heading towards the monsters, and before the monsters could even react, the icy petals rained down on them.

Controlled by Leila's telekinesis ability, the petals shattered their defenses and pierced their flesh.

In a few moments, under the brutal assault of a volley of bullets and a rain of ice shards, the monsters fell one after another until only was left prevailing.

A moment later, once the minions of the most powerful monster have collapsed without any sign of life and death in their eyes and bodies, Vincent dodged the punch thrown at him, took a deep breath, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Focus your attacks on its legs and eyes. It will be worse than a sitting duck unable to do anything once we take away its eyes and legs!"

Vincent's words weren't without reasons, as the monster will become useless if it losses its legs and eyes.

After all, the monster did not have any ranged magic. It could only use physical attacks to deal damage.

"Once it becomes immobile and blind after losing its legs and eyes, we would have plenty of time to deal with it."

"Break the barrier around its legs!"

After a moment, the monster's legs were shattered, and it collapsed to the ground with a dull thud.

"Kill it!"

Dragons made out of ice, sharp knives, and powerful energy bolts shoot towards the figure, full of chaotic might.

BOOM

BOOM

BOOM

The lacerations in most parts of the thick negative energy barrier and armor grew so deep that they shattered, revealing the thick and defenseless skin of the enormous monster.

At that moment, Vincent's voice brimming with might sounded in the ears of his teammates.

"Don't interfere! I want to slay it by my own two hands!"

"As you wish!"

Peter and Varth backed off as they didn't have any interest in taking the last hit.

"Alright," Leila said as she looked at his back with admiration. He was so powerful that he has almost soloed the most powerful monster.

Girls like powerful men that could protect them from harm, and it was true for Leila too.

"My boyfriend is powerful, kind, caring, and handsome. It's wonderful to just stare at him while knowing that he belongs to me. My stomach is going crazy just thinking about him." Leila said in her mind as she patted her cheeks with her palms, "Let's calm down!"

Vincent went over to the blind and freshly crippled monster and began his assault.

The blind monster was immobile as it lacked legs and couldn't see anything.

So how could it dodge Vincent's merciless attacks or even catch up to him?

It attacked, however, out of panic, flailing its bloodied arms like its life depended on it, yet Vincent easily evaded them as they were not only slow but also predictable.

Several moments later, Vincent's daggers slashed it in the same place dozens of times before chopping its head off its body.
