Chapter 100: 94. Revenge sir!
"I almost got eaten." Hannah seemed pretty shaken up.
Dexter looked at the black snake and he also noticed that its scales wasn't blue like that of the mutated creatures.
[You have slain level 19 black cobra. You have earned 17,000,000 spirit points and 5000 Heaven's tower points]
[Warning, can't absorb spirit points until you have evolved into a seventh class creature.]
'This shit about seventh class again?' Dexter sighed tiredly.
After thay, they managed to secure the creature at a safe location to carry back to the camp easily later on.
Beatrice healed their wounds which came as a shock to Dexter as he never knew her with healing abilities. She was more of a gun person.
Marco sighed as he pierced his large sword in the ground.
"One more creature. We have to be careful, it's not as low in level as this one." Marco said after he got his arm healed by Beatrice.
"What type of creature is it?" Dexter asked as he walked forward to Marco.
"It's a mutated comodo dragon. Some people from camp said it is huge so I guess it's a titan or its just a really high level creature." Marco said and Dexter looked at him in suspicion.
...
Chapman and Johnny decided to stay behind and keep the body of the black cobra intact.
"Don't you think it's weird?" Beatrice said as she walked with them.
"What?" Marco looked at her.
"Up until now, all the creatures we've seen were all blue." She said.
Marco put a hand on his chin as he thought about it. "Come to think of it, that's quite true."
"That's because this is the second phase of the tiran impact. It's called the evolution phase." Dexter said with his tranquil expression.
"Everything seems so mysterious. The asteroids, tiran impact, spirit interface... there must be someone running the show behind the scenes." Tracy said, making everyone look at her.
"Ah! Of course I could be wrong haha!" Tracy shook her head.
Some might think that it was just a random idea, but Dexter, he knew that Tracy was right.
"There's definitely someone running this show." Dexter mumbled with furrowed brows.
...
Soon, they got to an abandoned site which was previously a zoo and they headed in cautiously.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. Almost all of the creatures are roaming the city." Marco said as he looked inside at all the destroyed cages.
"So... what kind of creature are we hunting this time?" Dexter asked.
"I thought I told you before, it's a mutated comodo dragon. It's tail is very strong so we have to be careful while fighting it." Marco said and they soon reached a large pit where something large moved about.
Down in the pit was a large lizard with monstrously long Claws and faint outlines of its muscles were visible.
The creature had deadly jaws which were lined with a set of large pointy teeth. Standing three metres (300 centimetres) tall, it looked deadly as it was ferocious.
The lizard roared as it waved it's tail, smashing a cage made of steel with ease.
"So it's tail is powerful. Do you think we can take it?" Dexter asked worriedly.
"You're here aren't you." Marco grinned at him and Dexter frowned in annoyance.
"Come on." Marco charged forward and jumped into the pit.
Lily followed as she didn't want to be left behind and jumped into the pit.
"You two going?" Dexter asked Hannah and Tracy.
"I think I'll sit this one out." Tracy said.
"Me too. I still have a hard time killing zombies. I'll just slow you down." Hannah said and Dexter patted her head.
"You don't need to feel bad about yourselves. You'll be strong enough some day." He jumped backwards into the pit and ran toward the comodo dragon which roared at the sight of three people running toward it.
Dexter summoned his spear as he dashed forward faster than the others. Lily jumped up towards the comodo dragon buy it was fast.
It slashed her in the air with its claws but she just turned to green mist which moved to another position.
*RAAAAAHHH!!*
The creature roared loudly as it looked down to see a slash wound on its leg and it saw Marco there and bent down quickly to bite his head off.
Marco jumped out of the way and he pointed at the creature with his palm. A purple light began to gather in front of his palm.
Dexter was not enjoying this at all and Lily struck a big poison spike in its body and jumped away.
The creature looked towards Marco who was gathering energy with one of his hands and Dexter put a hand on the body of the creature before releasing a massive lightning surge that caused the creature to roar loudly in pain.
Marco was finally done and a straight beam of purple light blasted towards the creature and Dexter vanished through the shadow of the creature and he appeared a little far away.
The creature managed to get up and dodged the incoming ray by a small margin but it managed to graze its back, making it roar loudly while rolling on the floor.
"Dexter! Cover me!!" Marco shouted as he charged forward and Dexter only chuckled.
'Cover you?' Dexter still shook his head.
The creature spun, it's tail going towards Marco who was mainly targeting its head.
Since the zoo had a huge canopy covering it, the entire place was all shadows and Dexter appeared to block the tail, making Marco smile as he brandished his great sword.
As the tail closed in on Dexter, he vanished and appeared where Lily was in a distance and Marco's eyes were open wide as the tail whipped him into the wall on another side and Dexter flinched as he felt that one.
"That's going to hurt. Why leave him to take the blow?" Lily asked.
"He's the one that lured us to fight the golden eagle that nearly killed us. He deserves it." Dexter said with a smile.
The comodo dragon was busy trying to remove the spike on its butt when Marco stood up from within the wall and walked towards Dexter, his left hand limp.
"Hey! What was that for?!!" Marco shouted in rage.
"For revenge sir!" Dexter replied.
As Marco was about to ask more questions the creature came for him from the side and he ran to escape while shouting.
"Curse you Dexter!!"
