Above Hecaosi's unfolded palm.
Shockingly, it was a pool of crimson blood.
It was a ghastly sight of fresh blood.
Blood spurted out from Hecaosi's violent coughing!
Witnessing this scene, Sheyan suddenly pondered.
That was because Hecaosi didn't seem to have made any moves at all, merely dodging and evading. Even when he did attack, it was from afar, and he didn't engage in close combat. Why would he suddenly vomit blood and be heavily injured?
Upon closer inspection, Sheyan noticed something peculiar about the blood that Hecaosi vomited. It congregated without dispersing, and flickered with a metallic luster like mercury. It appeared to be similar to the liquid secreted by the 'Stairway of the Sun'.
"This phenomenon, is truly bizarre. Could it be …..." Sheyan muttered to himself in disbelief. "This brat is also concealing his strength?"
Facing Guarba who was like the sun in the midday sky, Hecaosi didn't reveal a single trace of fear or cowardice. Instead, he slowly declared.
"Many thanks for creating this opportunity today, and successfully slaying that old fogey Tiago! He is the only one who can restrain me, and the only stumbling block before me! The glory of the Ndipaya clan will inevitably shine upon the earth once more. Yet, it will be under my control! Moreover, hmph hmph, I will absolutely not give you the opportunity to follow in my footsteps. "
While Hecaosi was speaking, his left arm started to mutate! The blood vessels on his shoulder blade rapidly split apart, and extended downwards like tentacles, coiling around his entire arm. Then, his entire arm started to swell and lengthen. His entire body emitted coarse panting sounds, as though he was suffering an excruciating agony, as he curled up into a ball!
Sensing something amiss, Guarba hurriedly urged his titanic zombie beast to pounce forward. Yet for some unknown reason, the zombie beast merely sniffed around 7-8 metres away from Hecaosi, but was unable to pinpoint his exact location. Guarba's face revealed a look of astonishment. Suddenly, he snapped out of his daze and furiously roared.
"You actually secretly kept the powder of the holy object?! Only that thing can interfere with the senses of my child. Looks like you've been plotting against me for a long time! "
Guarba immediately brandished his golden scepter, as he controlled the two serpent-headed sculptures to slowly rotate. Then, he attempted to utilize the concentrated sunlight of the convex lens to assault Hecaosi.
However, as the massive sculpture rotated, Hecaosi's heavy breathing gradually ceased. Abruptly, he stood up with his head held high and his chest puffed out!
Just a moment ago, this old and weak shaman appeared to be more energetic than ever, strong and powerful! His pair of beast-like scarlet eyes abruptly lifted up, as he viciously glared at Guarba with a savage and malevolent expression.
His entire left arm was no longer in the shape of a hand. It was wriggling on its own like a huge scarlet leech. The skin under his skin was spasming and churning. Near the scapula, there were protruding arteries or veins that coiled like snakes. They looked like blood-red roots that were spreading towards the body at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this moment, the radiance of the sculpture had already arrived before Hecaosi. Instead, Hecaosi used his incomparably gigantic left arm to smash against the ground. Amidst the scattering of shattered rocks, he relied on the reaction force to roll away with unprecedented agility.
The zombie beast suddenly released a menacing roar, probably having sensed Hecaosi's movements. However, the latter's left arm had already evolved into an enormous, disgusting, deformed arm. This arm resembled a loathsome worm that had latched onto his body. At first glance, it looked like a python, but it didn't have eyes. Instead, its swollen head only had a gigantic mouth. It slowly coiled in the air, before cautiously raising its head. Aiming at the zombie beast from afar, it cautiously breathed out a purplish mist.
One could distinctly observe that within the pitch-black maw of the zombie beast, dozens of razor-sharp greyish teeth were slowly revolving. Deep within its throat, specks of mesmerizing purplish radiance faintly sparkled!
"This Hecaosi, he actually possesses the ability of a mutated parasite, just like those europeans!!" Sheyan instantly affirmed this point. Because he had suffered too much under the hands of a mutated Plaga Host, he was exceptionally familiar with this creature. With a single glance, he could discern the similarities between this mutated parasite and Travice's parasite.
At this moment, under Guarba's control, the zombie beast had already broken free from Hecaosi's bewildering formation. Carrying a foul stench, it ferociously pounced towards Hecaosi. Although Hecaosi appeared exceedingly swollen, and his entire body was exceptionally deformed due to his left arm morphing into a parasite, he actually possessed astonishing agility. Effortlessly, he dodged the attack.
After the zombie beast's pounce missed, it turned its head. Instead, Hecaosi flipped his hand and tossed out a short spear that pierced through its left eye. Then, he stooped down and concealed himself within the zombie beast's blind spot.
Simultaneously, the parasite's gigantic arm was incomparably flexible like a serpent as it swiftly coiled around the zombie beast's forelimb. Then, the swollen maw of the zombie beast's head was raised high, as its ring-shaped greyish teeth rapidly revolved. Like a chainsaw, it bluntly penetrated deep into the zombie beast's body!
Flesh and blood gushed out in a frenzy! It was like a sprinkler truck, drenching Hecaosi's entire face with blood and gore! Hecaosi opened his maw and gulped down large mouthfuls of flesh and blood, as though he had gone berserk. Instead, Sheyan observed his gaze, which was exceedingly callous and calm, without the slightest hint of insanity!
The zombie beast howled in agony and attempted to raise its claws in retaliation. Instead, Hecaosi's parasite's arm coiled around the zombie beast's hind leg and tugged! Thus, the zombie beast instantly lost its balance and fell to the ground! Naturally, the raised claws were instantly neutralized. Hecaosi's strategy of substituting offense for defense could be said to have reached the pinnacle of perfection.
Seizing this opportunity, Hecaosi once again shot out a javelin with lightning speed, piercing deeply into the other eye of the zombie beast!
Noteworthily, Sheyan noticed a detail at this moment.
After the javelin pierced into the zombie beast's eye, it pierced in by an inch!
But in the next second, the spear, which had clearly been thrown out, seemed to be pushed by an invisible hand from behind as it once again pierced two feet deep into the ground! Blood, aqueous and bodily fluids were squeezed out by the javelin a second time, splattering in all directions.
Such a javelin throwing technique appeared unremarkable, but in reality, it was an exceedingly high level throwing ability.
After witnessing this series of battles, Sheyan instantly sensed that although Hecaosi was also a mutated parasite carrier, he was completely different from Travice and the rest!
Travice and the rest were completely controlled by the parasite, and even their own nerves were completely dominated by the parasite's desire! Even Travice, who displayed the most autonomy, only retained less than half of a human's consciousness. Furthermore, at the most critical juncture, the parasite's central nervous system had sensed a threat, causing it to lose control and self-destruct.
Yet to Hecaosi, Sheyan could distinctly sense that the parasite in his body was completely his tool. In essence, it was no different from a javelin in his hand! Hecaosi ingeniously utilized the parasite's desire to feed to battle for him, while he himself wasn't affected at all. His personal battle awareness, combat experience and combat techniques were all preserved!
In a flash, the titanic zombie beast suffered an exceedingly devastating blow. The impression it gave off was that this savage beast was like a crumbling wall, riddled with holes by Hecaosi's parasitic arm like an incessant electric drill!
Hecaosi didn't appear too nimble in evading. In fact, Sheyan could sense that if they were racing on flat ground, Hecaosi's speed wouldn't be comparable to the zombie beast. Still, in such close quarters combat, the humongous size of the zombie beast had become its fatal weakness.
Hecaosi's evasive maneuvers were truly breathtaking.
During battle, Hecaosi was exceedingly familiar with the zombie beast's attacking habits. He constantly targeted the zombie beast's back, head, abdomen and other areas that weren't convenient for him to strike. If he was forced to the point where he couldn't evade, he would forcefully create a blind spot!
In addition to the pitiful defensive capabilities of the zombie beast, it was akin to paper before the parasite's parasite. Hence, not long after, chunks of flesh were peeled off from the zombie beast's body. Finally, its inner core was exposed to the air. Shockingly, it was an artificial core formed from Guarba's blood. That core was spherical in shape, and resembled a hedgehog with numerous arteries extending outwards. Like a heart, it twitched incessantly. Hecaosi's parasite widened its mandibles and chomped a huge hole into the core! Gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp, he chewed and swallowed!
The corpse beast with its core severely damaged immediately froze on the spot. Then, many of the corpses detached from its body and fell onto the square. Then, they quickly turned black, dried up, and were finally blown away by the wind like dried corpses.
Yet surprisingly, Guarba merely watched as his creature was slaughtered. Instead, his burly and muscular face revealed a disdainful sneer, as he folded his arms across his chest and glared coldly at Hecaosi. Yet before the zombie beast was about to perish, Guarba suddenly raised his golden scepter up high. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
