Chapter 336: She Decided To Drag Them All
And then, the silence broke again, this time by a thunderous wave of footsteps echoing through the underground tunnels.
My eyes narrowed as I saw what was coming.
It was another group of Abominations.
These were different—larger, heavier, and darker. They moved with more power, and even their presence was little different. Every single one of them was level 199. But that wasn’t what caught my attention.
There were patches of Deathmist clinging to their bodies—dark, smoky tendrils curling along their limbs, leaking from beneath their torn skin. These monsters were results of some hybrid experiment. Whatever the Holts and the Ferans had done... it was working. At least partially.
I extended my perception and scanned through the deeper levels of the prison.
There were nearly two hundred of these things rampaging across the lower levels. Cells were torn open. Prisoners screamed. The Abominations weren’t waiting for orders anymore, they were attacking everything that moved.
I nudged my link with Lyrate, sending a mental signal.
Lyrate, who had been floating calmly behind Steve and North, trembled slightly. Her glowing red eyes flared brighter. Without a word, she drifted forward, her sword already in hand.
At the far end of the corridor, four Abominations emerged, their roars shaking the walls. Steve and North tensed immediately, preparing to strike—
But Lyrate lifted her sword and slashed once through the air.
A single, wide crimson wave burst from her blade, cutting straight through all four of them.
