The Gene Gamer

Chapter 19: Monster Hunting II

The information on Haler and Fanton showed that they were terrifying individuals, they had similar power as him. Each of them had their own advatages, Fanton had extreme ice gene while Haler had gene that had the power to control light, extreme light. After knowing the powers of her he felt genuinely scared, the power of light was the nemesis of darkness, and his gene was in this category.

His gene could be said to be an evil yin type one, the light exuded from Haler was very unsetting to him and he felt his eyes hurt just looking at the energy exuded from her. It was good if he didn't make an enemy out of her but it was almost impossible as the changes brought by the gene to her might result in her being disgusted with dark energy or hating it.

Their relationship wouldn't be any good and it was the truth. He wouldn't make enemy out of her but if she shows even the slightest of being together with Farold, he would kill without hesitation. This was a future threat, if they became colleagues the threat would be large.

The bird that had come quickly was very strong, in fact he couldn't believe that the instructors outside hadn't stopped it. Or maybe it might be because the pressure was too large and they ignored it. He couldn't deal with this bird alone so he had to gather people to fight against it.

Since it was so powerful killing it would promise large amounts of points and there was even the possibility of a gene discovery. None would turn down the offer. Just him and Garen couldn't deal with the bird. Roping in random people wasn't a good idea, so other than Garen he could invite Fanton as Erick didn't participate in the mission.

Making the decision in his mind he looked at Garen first. Right now Garen was fighting with three birds, though he wasn't on the advantageous side he wasn't losing either. It could even be said that the winning side was slightly on him. With a bit of time he could definitely kill all three of them but the situation was tight and he couldn't allow it the bird to attack him during the time frame.

Aiming the head and the neck he fired three shots at the bird as he made a dash to Garen. After arriving within a suitable range he fired two shots each targeting the weak spots of the birds Garen was fighting against. Kill-stealing could incur wrath so ambushing the birds in the weak spot while not killing them would be a good idea.

Not expecting the sudden attack the birds were seriously injured. Taking the chance Garen immediately unleashed large amounts of fire from his body and successfully killed the three of them.

"Garen, I need your help. I want you to hold off that bird for a while. When you are doing that I will call for a backup. Don't worry see that huge bird, you will get your share of rewards"

Hearing the urgency of the situation Garen just nodded and ran to the huge bird while fire devoured his body, making the temperature drop near him. While it was hot it also had the kind of sinister feeling mixed into it but it was so faint that only after the energy within his body reacted to it he knew.

Heaving a sigh of relief he looked over to Fanton, seeing that he alone dealing with seven birds, his strength was truly powerful. One of the birds even looked unusual a, a unique one or a powerful among the birds that came through. But its strength was greatly lacking compared to the big bird he was attacked judging by the power ot displayed.

Some of the birds had a layer of frost on their skin while some of their claws and wings were frozen. In this matter, he could be said to be a very powerful person, without any help within a minute at most he would be able to kill them.

Seeing that he needed his help he would need to help him, as he was a powerful person. But he would also need to watch out not to offend him accidentally.

"Hi...Fanton I need your help, but I can promise you that the rewards would be sufficient. One bird but it has the potential of a few hundred points and I can give help to you right now if you need it" Fanton had already saw Cylius when he came close. Hearing the offer Fanton got interested.

"Hmm, ok I agree but I don't need your help with this, after all their too weak. Maybe the bird your talking about is interesting after all." Seeing that the offer went smooth he was quite thankful. After accepting the offer an extremely cold aura appeared around Fanton as the ground beneth him even showed signs of a frost layer appearing.

He couldn't believe his eyes, the material the ship was made from was extremely hard and dense as force elementals couldn't affect it at all, but now that it was being frozen it was unbelievable. Due to the sudden outbirst all of the birds instantly froze into ice sculptures, even the unique wasn't an exception.

'Now with the three of us we could definitely defeat the bird' a delighted expression appeared on his face as he turned to look towards the big bird's direction. Instantly his delighted expression turned into a grave one. He thought that with Garen's power he could at least hold off for a while but the situation was clearly dangerous for Garen as he had several fresh injuries all over his body.

If they didn't help it was inevitable for Garen to be defeated after a few second. He couldn't allow it to defeat Garen so after he signaled he immediately dashed to the bird. Fanton followed behind, he would of course not get there in time and this was also true for Fanton.

So he got out his handgun and aimed at the bird before firing three shots. This at least saved some time for Garen as Fanton immediately dashed forward at a very fast speed. The distance was at least two hundred meters but looking at him it would at most take fifteen seconds to make it in time. His perception was limited, from the three shots only one had scratched the bird's left wing.

Even though the damage was almost non-existent it delayed the bird for a while. Ice continuosly got out of his legs as Fanton glided his way to the bird.
