Suddenly the dark pupils of the corpse focused, staring right back into Rutherford’s violet eye.𝒏𝔬𝒱𝑬𝑙𝞰𝓔xt.𝓒𝑜𝑚

Boom!

The ground Rutherford had been standing caved in by almost more than a meter, but but Rutherford was no where to be found. It was as thought hr had been rises into pieces.

“What the fvck is that?” Rutherford appeared behind the team as he asked. Apparently, he had been prepared for any strange circumstances. The instance he had been attacked by corpse, he immediately activated the Earth-shrinking talisman that the young master had given to each of them. With the talisman, Rutherford was able to swiftly escaped the sudden attack with his life intact.

His eyes blazed with fire as he stared at the rising corspe as it stood up from its lying position.

“It’s obviously a corpse walking. Thousand of years in this place would have caused several unforseen circumstances. Unfortunately, this is one of them.” Young master Alan explained.

“Although it’s of the Atman stage, don’t panic. It only possess the most basic of its ability, losing more than 50 percent of its strength and its intelligence is at that of an animal.”

“David and Rutherford, keep it busy. Gardorf and Teela, attack the corpse from the rear while I look for an opportunity to land a critical blow.” saying this, the young master withdrew backwards to a corner of the passageway, his figure undetectable.

David squinted his eyes slightly. Both he and Rutherford had been tasked to tank the beast, an order that required teamwork to carry out. One wrong move could possibly lead to the partner’s demise.

It was obviously no mere coincidence the young master placed him and Rutherford with eachother

This was the perfect opportunity to get rid of one another without raising a finger. Now, it’s only a mater of who would be the one being ridded of.

The corpse stared maliciously at the two male heading for it and it opened its mouth, similar to letting out a high-pitched shrill, that threatened to burst their eardrums.

“Be careful!” Teela shouted tuwards them.

“Where do you think you are going?”

Raising his fist forward, David punched out towards the fist headed for him.

As both fist connected, David’s expression changed changed slightly. The strength from the corpse’s fist was greater than what David had expected.

Noticing he wouldn’t be able to containing it all, David arm turned slippery as they wrapped around the corpse’s fist, he quickly redirected the fist towards sideways, both his chest and the corpse’s chest exposed.

Rutherford’s long sword had long susnce appeared in his hand. Violet flames raged violently from the blade as he swumg forwards.

With the direction of the sword covered in violet flames, it was hard to determine if the blade was heading towards David’s chest or for the blue-haired corpse’s chest.

BANG!

Shockwaves spread out and the corpse staggered backwards, a while long mark appeared on its chest, coughing out the aftermath of the sword strike.

Both David and Rutherford’s expression changed slightly. Rutherford’s attack was so strong and yet, it had done nothing but to leave out a long white line on the corpse’s skin. Just how strong was the flesh?

Boom!

A feel foot imprint appread on the ground and the blue-haired corpse vanished from its previous position.

David clapped his fist together and he stamped his feet to the ground. There was a slight tremble and his figure also vanished, meeting the fast moving blue-haired corpse mid-way.

Their fist collided and it was as though two mountains clapped against each other. It was as though the entire large passageway was about to collapse.

A massive amount of strength racked upon David’s fist, traveling up from his arm ti his body. His shirt exploded and his veins trembled violently as the enormous force travelled down to his legs.

Boom! Boom!

Two sounds resounded as the ground beneath his feet caved in, leaving two deep foot imprints on them.

Rapidly, David retreated. His figure moving backwards in a strange manner as he redirected the entire force to the ground.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The ground beneath him continued to cave as he floated backwards. But that was only half of it. David had only taken half of the corpse’s strength.

The blue-haired corpse continued to move forwards, with the remaining half of its strength in its fist.

Holding his blade horizontally, the raging violet fire on his blade blazed with even more ferocity. A violet line stretched from from Rutherford to the corpse, then his figure blinked and he appeared right before the moving corpse.

Boom!

Once more, the corpse was sent staggering backwards. Using this opportunity Teela and Gardorf flashed right behind the corpse’s feet using their weapons, slammed it at the joints, bringing the corpse to its knees.

Then they forcibly held the shoulder tightly. David and Rutherford weren’t slow either, they hurried forwards and joined the two others to pin the corpse down.

Suddenly, a rainbow colored stream of light flaoted lightly towards their direction. But the rainbow light wasn’t slwo in the slightest, it was too fast that alsmot no one could see what it was.

The young master then appeared behind them, his hands folded behind him as he watched the walking corpse coldly.

BANG!

The blue-haired corpse’s head seem to have been bisected into a polygon as the skull separated into multiple parts.

David and the others let out sighs of relieve as they let go, allowong the corpse to fall to the ground.

Rutherford breathed out softly. It seems the last attack he had used drained him quite a bit. He went to the passage wall and sat down with his back to the wall.

“With this, I know I can trust you all to do your jobs perfectly without getting personal about it or letting your grudges rule your actions.” Young master Alan seem to be have been impressed by David and Rutherford’s team work as he nodded at them.

“I made a promise to Rutherford, and the first Atman sarge corpse we find would be his and I intend to keep that promise.”

The others expression immediately turned ugly upon hearing this.
