Chapter 435: Half of What I Was
Logan knew he had to go all out. To do this, he chose to merge immediately with Scorch.
His fangs lengthened as a snout formed—he had practiced this skill more and now understood he could select any of Scorch’s evolutions. He chose the Inferno Raptor form, but kept the density of the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
His strength was halved, but he would still have the mobility, claws, and leaping power needed to attack the warrior before him.
[Let’s do this, Scorch. You were a raptor for a good part of your life—show me the ropes!]
Scorch took command of the body. The dinosaur, remembering his days as a swift hunter, charged forward faster than ever before.
He combined it with Burst Charge, fire erupting around him as he bolted. Despite the heat, Logan noticed the warrior didn’t flinch. He was ready, sword raised to meet him head-on.
"Use the claws, Scorch. Save the bite for when we find an opening. He’s wearing top-tier armor."
Scorch growled in agreement. He straightened his neck slightly as he accelerated.
The first clash came fast. Logan had expected to be pushed back, but instead, they were the ones pushing forward. The warrior’s sword wasn’t able to cut through Logan’s hardened claws completely.
That gave Scorch an opening.
He kicked with his talons, scraping the armor and testing its durability. One claw even managed to slice into the warrior’s armored leg, just enough to draw a reaction.
"Damn, those are some strong claws," Logan muttered.
