Chapter 233: Operation Wolf Slayer. (Part 21)
"Thanks, Sunray." With his wounds healed, Werewolf stood up and prepared to joining the battle.
"Be more careful." Sunray replied, pouting a little. "Just because you look like a beast doesn’t mean you have to act like one."
"Yeah, I will be more careful."
Though his transformation came with its own healing factor, there was a limit to the damage it could fix. Cuts and wounds healed instantly, but broken bones and fangs needed a lot more time, something they Team Silver Wind didn’t currently have. That is when Sunray comes in.
Being a Level 3, she was capable off dealing a significant damage in a battle, but what mad her truly valuable was her ability to heal others. Genomes with healing abilities were quite rare, and Sunray’s addition to the team allowed Silver Wind to operate at a much higher efficiency than the others.
Night Gale and White Arrow were going a great job holding back the Romano executioner, but they wouldn’t last long. Knowing that, Werewolf rushed to rejoin the battle, taking the right moment to pounce on their opponent.
Unlike their previous fights where he kept his fists tightly clenched, refusing to rely on his claws, Werewolf made use of everything he had, including his fangs. It made for a rather horrifying sight. Anyone watching would think he had gone made because of the transformation, but he was entirely in control.
Carlo Romano was capable of rivaling him in physical terms, which meant he was using several other sorcerous Arts to enhance himself beside the one that allows him to control the silver substance.
They exchanges several blows. Each time, Werewolf’s claws scrapped against the surface of the silver shield, which seems to harden at just the right moment. Night Gale and White Arrow continued their support, with the white clad using every opening he had to shoot one of his explosive arrow while the team leader ensured their enemy doesn’t get to back.
The fight was affecting their surroundings. The walls began to fall, unable to hold themselves together as more and more cracks spread through them. With each one that crumbled, the inner structure of the hotel revealed itself a little. While some of the walls were made from normal bricks and cement, others were reinforced with the same allow panels as the gates sealing the building. The elevator shafts seemed to be encased in the same material, which was the reason why the heroes couldn’t just break in from the side and use them to reach the lower floors.
The same was for the floor, as well as the ceiling. No matter how intense the battle got, they stilled on, refusing to bend in the slightest.
Loud bangs continued to reverberate through the forty seventh floor, violent winds blowing through its corridors. Most came from the explosive punches Carlo Big Fist Romano threw at Werewolf, who continued to block instead of dodging, sometimes negating them by countering with his own strikes.
