Chapter 20: Killing the bird I
Shooting a bird with fast speed while having a handgun from far away was difficult but he could manage. At least he could distract it making time for Fanton to reach there before going too.
Aiming at the bird, predicting the places where the bird might evade to with the speed and everything analyzed, he felt as if he was in a game where he could calculate everything with a skill. At that moment it was as if he was in an enlightenment. Subconsciously he pulled the trigger one time.
Then another, then another like this he shot four times in a row.
During the fight a bullet came to the bird, not thinking much about it, the bird evaded it just like last time but then another one came right at the spot where it evaded. Flustered, the bird gathering the power in its body evaded it once again albeit hardly.
Right as it had evaded another bullet came, helpless it could only get shot in the stomach. Blood splattered, following the last bullet the bird once again got shot by three bullets all in weak spots. Two in the two wings, one in the stomach and one in the chest.
Together they formed four injuries, with blood gushing out of it in large amounts.
The bird was barely able to fly when an unexpected thing happened. Blood stopped gushing out of the wound completely as the wounds healed on their own. Instead of becoming heavily injured, it seemed even more active and healthy than before.
Seeing such a scene 'Must be a regenerative gene' popped up in their minds. Instead of becoming fearful, they became greedy instead. Though it will be hard to kill a monster with genes, with the power of the three of them they could. Moreover, his yin energy could be said to be a counter for the gene.
His energy was corrosive and looking at the power of the gene it couldn't suppress his. His energy would completely overpower it. Even though it was healed, the wounds from before had delayed it making time for Fanton to go over.
Fanton jumped up landing on the bird, ice blue outlines appeared on the bird's feathers as it tried to make the human on its body fall down. The bird was the size of two large rooms, Fanton was like an ant compared to it but still he alone managed to make the bird hurt just in a single attack.
The healing gene resisted it for a bit and some of the ice melted but couldn't melt all of it completely. After all, it was a healing gene, not some protective one while advanced ones might have some extra functions it didn't. It was already impressive enough for it to melt ice, just with this feature alone it would fetch quite a high price.
The bird retaliated with even more attempts at shaking him off but it didn't work. He was still on the back of the bird and even made an icicle to make it as a weapon. The skin of the bird was very tough and only after a few tries did a wound open up but it still healed quickly.
Shaking his head, he pulled out a handgun, handguns were cheap and easy to move with so most people choose handguns over other guns. While grabbing at the now frozen feathers he aimed the handgun to the body of the bird. After covering the body of the bird with more than one layer of ice, he pulled the trigger.
As a result, a huge wound was made and the dense ice layers started to crack as the firmly grabbed feathers got torn. A powerful wind blew over Fanton's body as he was almost blown away. But he was resilient as more amounts of energy radiated from his body making the surroundings around him an ice hell.
The bird as if in an unimaginable pain screeched out so loudly that his mind went blank. For some time he couldn't listen anything at all, he felt dizzy. With his enhanced hearing it was multiplied, fortunately he had closed off a part of his senses in order to escape it.
He felt incredibly easy as he closed off his senses, almost like switching off something. From the enlightenment, he felt as if he could control everything in his body. From shutting down the pain to moving every muscle with precision, his perception had also increased tremendously.
The rather strange thing was that if he were to describe the enlightenment in other words, it would be lifting a restriction or something. He felt his understanding of energies increase and he could find almost everything from it. He felt like a saga, omniscient with nothing escaping his eyes.
In fact, if in the past he didn't know the exact weak spots of the bird except for some easily noticeable ones, now he could find every weak spot the bird had. The bird was like an open book to him where he could find all sorts of information. From the complexion, eyes, skin, feathers he knew everything and this sort of feeling was very addictive.
The density and the hardness, temperature of the energy Fanton was exuding, to the most critical injuries of Garen.
When his mind had returned to normal he saw a crazed bird with bloodshot eyes acting like a mad bull trying to shake off the human above it. Fanton was still on top of the bird with a gun in his hand.
The bird was really a tough nut even with all the damage it had been dealt with it still didn't die. At this time did Cylius reach here. After arriving he looked over at Garen and seeing him still mending his wounds threw a healing potion to him. This fight will be a hard one without the strength of all three of them they wouldn't win.
'Garen had his uses, all three of them were force type geneticians, no matter how weak, a person with a force type inner superior gene was a valuable asset. If they were pushed to a dead-end at least his self-destruct would be...' this was his thought as he gave out this healing potion.
A healing potion was expensive, he only had two with him.
It was only to be used in emergencies. With his knife covered with his energy, he leaped up to the bird using a support. After drinking the potion, the injuries on his body also relatively healed, and his lifeforce immediately shot up.
With two knives by his side, he stabbed the bird with the knives using it as a tool to stay on its body without falling.
