Chapter 30 - 86 Meter+ & New Body Parts
The moment Ian confirmed his choice, his body trembled. A deep rumble echoed from within, like a volcano on the verge of eruption. His bones creaked, expanding as if being stretched by unseen forces. Muscles pulsed and swelled, sinews twisting and tightening. His exoskeletal armor groaned under the sudden surge, reinforcing itself in real-time. His height shot up like a monstrous tree breaching the heavens.
6.75 meters.
12 meters.
24 meters.
50 meters.
It didn't stop. The transformation continued, the ground beneath him trembling as his increasing weight pressed against it. His vision stretched higher, trees shrinking beneath his towering frame. His joints cracked and popped, adjusting to the new proportions. Finally, it came to a halt at a staggering 87.75 meters.
Ian exhaled, sending a gust of wind outward, rustling the trees violently. His hands clenched into fists, the raw strength surging through him intoxicating. A vicious grin spread across his face. Time to test his new body.
With a simple stomp, the entire area quaked. Birds scattered from the treetops, and deep cracks split the earth where his foot landed. He lifted his leg and stomped again—BOOM!—a five-meter-wide crater formed beneath him. His grin widened.
Next, he balled his fist and slammed it against a nearby mountain of boulders. The impact sent shockwaves in every direction. The rocks shattered into dust, flying out like cannon fire. Ian chuckled. His power had surged beyond recognition.
Not satisfied yet, he bent his knees slightly and jumped. His massive frame shot into the sky like a missile. The wind howled past his ears as he soared, the ground rapidly shrinking beneath him. At the peak of his jump, he could see the entire Blood City in the distance, its crimson glow flickering like a tiny ember. Then, he descended. Fast.
BOOOOOM!
