As the poison and dark matter headed for the creatures' bodies, they began to wake up, and their auras intensified.
Wain waited until the syringes were empty and instantly attacked the venomous lizard. He thought this monster was more dangerous than the dark wolf, as he had no defense against the poison.
However, before Wain's attack should have reached the lizard, the monster opened its eyes and instantly got out of the pod.
The same thing happened to the dark wolf. The two monsters quickly realized that Wain was their enemy. They teamed up and attacked Wain.
Wain smirked and said, "You are nothing but a pathetic puppy who dared to open his mouth!"
Wain turned into blue lightning the next moment and inflicted a deep wound on the monster's chest. But, suddenly, darkness began to emanate from the wolf's body, which quickly healed it.
Wain was surprised and tried to attack in the same place again, but he had to dodge the poisonous projectiles flying in his direction.
Then the lizard and the wolf attacked Wain furiously. They attacked him in every way possible and even managed to overwhelm him. All Wain could do was defend himself and wait for the right moment to attack.
Wain was not weak. On the contrary, he was powerful, but these creatures combined the strength of a mutant and a monster, surpassing most current creatures in strength.
Zero and Teresa, who watched Wain fight, couldn't even keep track of their action.
'Damn it, I can't see anything!" thought Teresa. To her, this fight was like many black and white flashes after each one appeared, destroying the part of this room.
Wain blocked a swift strike from the dark wolf, and a massive cut appeared on the wall behind him because of the shockwave. Then the same thing happened after the lizard attacked with its three tails.
'Even considering my current stats, I can barely block every one of their attacks. What's more, this wolf doesn't let me get close to the lizard. But, I can't concentrate all my attention on a wolf that regenerates in less than three seconds. Damn.' Thought Wain as he fought off another blow.
Then his body shimmered with electric shocks, and he turned into blue lightning. He wounded the dark wolf deeply again, but Wain didn't turn around this time. He headed toward the lizard.
Wain had to get rid of the dangerous, venomous enemy first. That was his priority. He tried to cut the lizard with his sword, but suddenly the monster dodged, preventing Wain from doing so.
Then Wain abruptly turned around and pointed his hand in the direction of the lizard. Wain decided to use a newly acquired skill - Kinetic Shot. It was his most powerful skill at the moment, aside from Code of Light and Darkness.
Wain didn't know how powerful the recoil would be, but it didn't matter at the time. He had to kill these monsters no matter what it cost him.
Tremble.
The air around Wain's hand vibrated, and then there was a loud click. It was the sound of his bones, which could hardly withstand such a powerful shot without damage.
At the exact moment, the kinetic bullet flew toward the lizard. It instantly reached him, and the monster's head was blown up. The lizard could not dodge, even though it was a swift creature.
A blue soul flew out of the already dead lizard's body and into Wain's body.
[Soul of Poison Lizard (Whole)
Chronicle: Primary
Rating: Common]
'Whole Soul, not bad, but I won't save it for later. I will need to use this soul to gain a skill.' Thought Wain and prepared to fight the dark wolf.
However, the monster was in no hurry to attack. It stared at Wain fiercely, and its eyes glowed brightly. Wain didn't understand what was happening, but then he saw his hands turn to stone.
'What the hell!' Wain thought to himself and turned completely to stone. No matter how experienced and careful Wain was in combat, he could not have known that this wolf possessed such a unique ability from myths and legends.
Wain knew of only one creature capable of turning anyone into stone with a single glance, and that creature was only part of the ancient story.
"We have to help him," Epta whispered. She couldn't bear to watch the dark wolf approach Wain.
Zero nodded and was already ready to act, but suddenly a huge amount of energy began to emanate from Wain's body.
Not only was it a unique power, but it was one of the oldest and strongest curses. However, Wain was not afraid of any curse, for he was the one who put an end to the Island of the Damned.
[Activated the effect of your title - Savior of the Damned
The curse of petrification has been lifted and will no longer affect you if no power changes are detected]
Then the stone layer covering Wain's body began to crack and instantly disintegrated into many pieces. Wain could move again, but he was in no hurry to attack.
He looked coldly at the dark wolf and said slowly, "I wanted to kill you and take your soul, but now you will experience true torment. I will skin you and gouge out your brazen eyes!"
The darkness absorbed the next moment Wain's aura and armor began to change. He saw several messages in front of him.
[Your state does not match the ideal skill balance - the Codex of Light and Darkness.]
[Because of your state, darkness absorbs light and begins to dominate this duo. Along with the increase of darkness, so does the change of stats]
This had already happened when he fought against the Demonic Ants. But, now Wain was angry. He wanted to kill the dark wolf, not to get a soul, but to cause this monster pain and suffering.
So when Wain saw these messages, he immediately used Kinetic Shot again, the invisible bullet headed towards the wolf with lightning speed. When Energy becomes 1, even this skill becomes too weak to use.
But, the monster had time to react and partially dodged. The kinetic bullet hit its paw and ripped it off, but a second later, a new paw was created from the darkness no worse than the previous one.
'Is he immortal?' Wain thought and lunged toward the dark wolf.
Wain didn't use Kinetic Shot anymore. This skill had too much recoil to use several times in a row.
If Wain had used Kinetic Shot for the third time in such a short period, his bones and skin would not survive it. He wouldn't die, but his arm would definitely be broken.
He could not afford such a severe injury. Wain didn't know what else this monster was capable of. He had to be prepared for any surprises.
Roooooooooooaaaaaaaar!
The dark wolf roared furiously and pounced on Wain in response. The monster's sharp claws rained down on Wain, but he ducked and dodged at the last moment. Wain clenched his sword tightly and turned into a deadly vortex slicing the monster's flesh apart.
'What?!'
To his surprise, even such numerous and severe wounds healed instantly. Wain assumed that this monster's regeneration had some limit or that if it inflicted many wounds, it would take a long time to heal. But, neither of Wain's theories proved true.
The dark wolf attacked Wain. He blocked the monster's sharp claws with his sword but was suddenly struck in the side with his tail. Wain flew back several meters from this attack, but he quickly regrouped and got into a fighting stance.
'I need to come up with another plan. I can try chopping his head off, that should work, but the wolf doesn't set up that area to be hit. I need to distract him.' Thought Wain, and the Destruction Sword flew towards the monster the next moment.
The dark wolf easily repelled the weapon with a powerful paw strike, but suddenly Wain appeared in front of it. He put his hand over his head and the Destruction Sword appeared in an instant.
Then he brought his sword down on the monster's neck with all his might, cutting it off. Wain took a great risk, for the monster's claws almost reached him and even cut through some of his armor.
"Phew, that was dangerous," Wain muttered, but suddenly his eyes widened in shock.
Threads of darkness began to appear between the monster's neck and head. Wain couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Before his eyes, the monster was recovering from having its head cut off. But Wain wasn't going to let that happen.
Bam.
He kicked the monster's severed head hard to the other side of the room. Then ran up to the monster's head and grabbed its lower and upper jaws.
Cracking.
A loud cracking sound was heard. Wain gradually tore the monster's head in two like some wild animal. He had no other option than to prevent this monster from regenerating endlessly.
When Wain was done with the head, he continued to cut the dark wolf's body into many pieces. Wain did not know the full potential of this monster and did not want to check.
After about a minute, Wain's entire body was covered in blood, and the wolf's carcass was cut into thousands of pieces.
When the dark wolf stopped regenerating and finally died, Wain saw a blue soul flying towards it. He smiled contentedly.
The venomous lizard proved to be a reasonably easy opponent, but Wain had spent a lot of energy killing the dark wolf. It was one of the hardest to kill in recent memory.
