Chapter 429 Mr Augustus' Children
The moment he saw those crescent eyes of the creature, he suddenly realized that he had been played.
This mutated beast was far more intelligent than he thought.
When he used Surveyor on the creature, he had seen that it was at the Deep demon level, but somewhere at the back of his mind, he had the faint assumption that it was just a stronger animal.
After all, it had attacked as such and he had even been able to easily reach behind it's head it in a swift manner.
However, now that he thought about it, many things were actually off,but he had been too carried away by the zeal of the win to notice.
For a person that was always careful, he could not believe that he had been so stupid to have let such a thing happen.
Essentially, he had underestimated his opponent and now, he was paying the price for it.
Lenny frowned. He understood what was happening. Things had essentially been going smooth, and he had now become too complacent.
"Fuck!" He cursed.
It was indeed a surprise to see that the mutated beast was still alive.
Lenny had destroyed it's brain but it was still alive.
The beast opened it's mouth wide, revealing the bottomless pit that led to obvious oblivion.
Lenny struggled again and again, but it was of no use.
Without a moment to waste, he activated Rapid dog.
His muscles instantly became taunt and his overall energy levels increased significantly.
White flames rushed from his body about the body of the mutated beast.
At first, it made significant damage to the creature.
However, there was a sudden explosion of magic from the creature's body.
To Lenny's surprise, it was actually Darkline magic.
"What the fuck!? A demon?" Lenny thought to himself.
However, his ability, Surveyor, still indicated that it was just a mutated creature and not a Demon.
But what he was seeing was clearly different.
Surveyor had indicated that the beast had Magic, but it had only ever used it's Mental attack and that clearly consumed Magic points.
Lenny did not know that the creature could also use it's magic in this manner, and certainly did not know the type of magic.
The creatures Darkline magic rushed forth enveloping his body like flames that wanted to consume a forest.
He screamed loudly to the sky.
This was magic that was of the Deep demon level.
For Lenny, It felt like he had been dropped into a bucket of uneven jagged blades, all competing fiercely for domination over more flesh to hurt.
"AHHH!!!" He screamed loudly.
<Alert! Alert!! Alert!!!>
<Darkline magic of purer quality detected. Invasion of body and soul eminent. Host is advised to stay away from opponent.>
<Host is adviced to stay away from opponent!>
<Host is adviced to stay away from opponent!!>
<Host is adviced to stay away from opponent!!!>
"I know fucking damn it!" Lenny screamed at the Satan system.
His mind raced for a solution to his current predicament.
At the moment, he couldn't even move his limbs.
The mutated giant Octopus had taken complete control over his body, stretching it abnormally.
And he could not even use his magic.
For the first time in a long time after coming coming to this world, Lenny actually felt helpless.
Steadily, the creature pulled him using it's tendrils into it's mouth.
Just then, there was a loud giggle.
"So you are Lenny Tales! I have heard so much from you."
A figure suddenly appeared on the creature's head.
It was a woman.
She was petite in nature.
She had red fiery hair, dressed in a long gown, matching the color of her hair, and in turn her eyes.
This was the desert, and it was a day as windy as most, bit it seemed to have no effect against her gown.
In her hand was a black umbrella.
Even though it was not raining, she held it as such.
She looked like any normal person, except that no normal person would stand on the head of a Deep level demon
By her side was a big, buff man, a stark contrast to her frame.
While she looked normal except for the very blood red hair, he had black hair and blood red skin.
Their arrival had been so sudden that it had actually been a surprise for even the Giant Octopus.
....
Meanwhile, at a distance about a few kilometers from the City of Milk and Honey, a ship raced out of sight with incredible speed.
This was the Crimson Leviathan.
Tobi stood beside Captain Crimson at the helm of the ship, "captain, do you think it was a good idea for us to leave just like that? I mean we could have at least warned them with a flare."
Captain Crimson shook his head. "That's the problem with you. You are too sentimental. Everyone knows that mutant beasts are scared of reaching that city because of the Primordial Beast, and yet, we happened to witness a giant octopus pass by us to attack the city.
Even the Mutated beasts we use to pull our ship get uncomfortable going to that City. What does that tell you, huh?"
Tobi scratched his head a little, but immediately answered.
"That the giant octopus is strong enough to challenge the Primordial beast?"
Captain Crimson shook his head, "trust me my dear Tobi, that beast is nowhere the strength level of the Primordial beast. But that was not a bad guess.
The truth is that someone is intentionally picking a fight with that city.
Any person that would do that most likely has the strength of Great Demon.
And you think it's a good idea for us to have a flare up to warn the city?
Please, we should be grateful that we left that city when we did, and that the creature did not decide to destroy my sweet Baby," captain Crimson patted the ship.
"This is definitely the last time I see those two. It's as if trouble is attracted to those Half-borns." Captain Crimson sighed.
However, a few figures suddenly landed on the ship. It was werewolves. But not just any Werewolves.
These were Iron Back Werewolves.
"So they are Half-borns, huh!?"
