Chapter 191
The giants aren’t as tough as they look, at least not when enraged. They drop to the first Salvo of attacks, Ahra nearly takes a leg off her opponent before knocking him unconscious with the second strike, while I crush a ribcage with a surprise punch from Shadow Meld and follow it up with a kick that breaks the second giant’s pelvis.
The announcer looks pained seeing the results of that strike and is about to say something when an alarm goes off. "That’s the attack alarm. The city is in a state of emergency, so if we can get everyone to head for safety, it is time our competitors return to their rooms." He calls out to widespread jeering. There should have been a lot of fights left, and they were just getting into it.
"Will you two please follow me. My name is Doosan, Royal Researcher appointed by the King to look into your abilities." An older looking Nephilim asks politely from the edge of the ring.
"After you Researcher." I shrug, dragging Ahra along, not seeing it being likely that his studies will be worse than that stone cell. Heck, if we’re lucky whatever is attacking might just wipe out the city.
The amount of Death Energy building in the air is overwhelming me as we walk. Do the deaths of a few fighters at the Divine Realm really release this much energy? If it keeps up I’m going to be forced to breakthrough in the next couple of minutes.
"Researcher Doosan, could we sit a moment? The flood of energy is about to force me to break though." I tell him when it’s becoming too much to hold back anymore. My Goddesses mark is saturated, and has spread even further down my arm and across my back, Plus my spirit ocean is overflowing with energy in a painful way and every cell in my body is overwhelmed.
"We’re almost there. I’ve got recording devices already set up to investigate the changes. I suspected something like this might happen if fighting started." He assures me, carrying me at a flat out run with Ahra trailing behind.
He sets me down on a beanbag chair when we arrive, but one in the middle of an array of high tech equipment. It’s not too bad, I just need to focus a second to make sure nothing is going to go wrong.
"Can someone tell me what is going on? Why is she being forced to breakthrough?" Ahra pants when she finally arrives.
