Chapter 63 The Unassuming Hei Caosi
On Hei Caosi's outstretched palm were several pools of crimson blood, a shocking sight.
The blood was coughed up by Hei Caosi in a violent fit!
Seeing this, Fang Senyan seemed to realize something.
Because, just now, Hei Caosi didn't seem to attack much, mostly dodging and evading. Even when he did attack, it was from a distance. He hadn't engaged in close combat. How could he suddenly be so badly injured that he was vomiting blood?
Looking closely at the blood he vomited, Fang Senyan saw that it was quite peculiar. It gathered without dispersing, shimmering with a metallic luster like mercury, similar to the fluid secreted by the Sun Ladder. "This phenomenon is very strange. Could it be…?" Fang Senyan muttered in disbelief, "Is this guy also hiding his strength?"
Hei Caosi, facing the eminent Gurga, showed no fear or timidity, and said slowly, "Thank you for creating this opportunity today, successfully killing the old fogey Tiago! He was the only one who could restrain me, the only obstacle in my path! The glory of the Dubaiya clan will surely shine upon the earth again, but under my leadership!
And, hmph, I will never give you the chance to follow in my footsteps."
As Hei Caosi spoke, his left arm began to undergo a strange transformation! Blood vessels from his shoulder rapidly divided, spreading downwards like tentacles, tightly wrapping around his entire arm. His entire arm began to swell and lengthen, and he began to pant heavily, as if in great pain, shrinking into a ball on the spot!
Gurga, sensing something was wrong, hurriedly urged the giant corpse beast forward to attack, but for some reason, the corpse beast sniffed around seven or eight meters away from Hei Caosi, unable to find his exact location. Gurga's face showed surprise, and he suddenly realized, roaring, "You actually secretly kept the holy object's powder?! Only that thing can interfere with my child's senses. It seems you've been plotting against me for a long time!"
Gurga immediately waved the golden scepter, trying to control the two giant snake-headed human-bodied statues in the distance to slowly rotate, attempting to use the intense sunlight focused by the convex lenses to attack Hei Caosi.
But, as the giant statues rotated, Hei Caosi's heavy breathing gradually stopped, and he suddenly raised his head and stood up straight!
The priest, who had seemed hunched, weak, and old moments before, now looked more energetic, strong, and mighty than ever! His beast-like, bloodshot red eyes suddenly lifted, filled with three parts ferocity and seven parts hideousness, glaring fiercely at Gurga.
His entire left arm was no longer hand-shaped, but writhing on its own like a huge, scarlet leech. The skin beneath was constantly convulsing and churning.
Near the shoulder bone, raised arteries or veins coiled like snakes, and something resembling a blood-red tree root spread towards his body at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this moment, the light from the statue had focused and shone on Hei Caosi, but Hei Caosi smashed his huge, deformed left arm on the ground. Amidst flying gravel, he rolled away with unprecedented agility, using the force of the impact.
The corpse beast suddenly let out a threatening roar, probably sensing Hei Caosi's movement. However, Hei Caosi's left hand had evolved into a huge, disgusting, deformed arm, resembling a disgusting giant insect parasitizing his body. It looked like a python at first glance, but it had no eyes, only a huge mouthpart on its bulging head. It slowly coiled in the air, cautiously raised, aimed at the corpse beast not far away, and carefully sprayed purple mist.
It could be clearly seen that inside this thing's dark, gaping maw, over ten rings of sharp, gray teeth slowly rotated, and faint, beautiful purple light glimmered deep within its throat!
"This Hei Caosi can also master the ability of mutant parasites, just like the European outsiders!" Fang Senyan immediately confirmed this, because he had suffered too much from these mature mutants, so he felt particularly familiar with them, and saw the similarities between this mutant parasite and Travis's parasite at a glance.
At this time, under Gurga's control, the corpse beast had broken free from the maze set up by Hei Caosi, stirring up a strong, fishy wind, and pouncing fiercely towards Hei Caosi. Although Hei Caosi looked very bloated, his whole body appearing particularly deformed because his left arm had turned into a giant parasite arm, he actually possessed astonishing agility, easily dodging the attack.
The giant corpse beast missed its pounce, and just as it turned its head, Hei Caosi threw a short spear backhand, piercing its left eye. Then, he lowered his body and lurked in the monster's blind spot.
At the same time, the parasite arm was incredibly flexible, quickly wrapping around the corpse beast's forelimbs like a snake. Then, the huge mouthpart at the head of the arm was raised high, and the ring-shaped gray teeth inside rotated at high speed, piercing into the depths of the corpse beast's body as decisively as an electric drill!
Blood and flesh immediately splattered wildly! It was like a sprinkler truck, drenching Hei Caosi's head and face! He opened his mouth wide, swallowing greedily, the uneaten blood and flesh overflowing from the corners of his mouth, looking extremely crazed. However, Fang Senyan saw that his eyes were very cold and calm, without the slightest hint of madness!
The giant corpse beast howled in pain and was about to raise its claws to resist, but Hei Caosi's parasite arm wrapped around the corpse beast's hind legs and immediately pulled, causing the monster to lose its balance and fall to the ground! The raised claw attack was naturally eliminated. Hei Caosi's use of attack as defense could be said to be masterful.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hei Caosi once again shot out a flying spear like lightning, deeply piercing into the giant corpse beast's other eye!
It is worth mentioning that Fang Senyan noticed a detail here.
After the spear that pierced the giant corpse beast's eye was thrown, it first pierced in a foot!
But then, after waiting for a second, the spear, which had clearly already been thrown, seemed to have an invisible hand pushing it from behind, piercing two feet deeper! Blood, pus, and bodily fluids spurted out with the spear's second shot, flying everywhere.
This skill of throwing spears seemed inconspicuous, but in fact, it was a very high-end throwing ability.
After witnessing this series of battles, Fang Senyan immediately felt that although this Hei Caosi was also a carrier of that kind of mutant parasite, he was completely different from Travis and the others!
Travis and the other guys were completely controlled by the parasites, and even their nerves were completely dominated by the parasites' desires! Even Travis, who showed the strongest autonomy, probably only retained less than half of his human consciousness, and lost control and self-destructed at the most critical moment because the parasite's central nervous system sensed a threat.
But, for the Hei Caosi in front of him, it could be clearly felt that the parasite in his body was completely his tool, and its essence was no different from a spear held in his hand! Hei Caosi skillfully used the parasite's feeding desire to fight for himself, and he himself was not affected at all. His personal fighting consciousness, fighting experience, and fighting skills were all preserved!
The giant corpse beast suffered extremely tragic heavy damage in an instant. Fang Senyan felt that this ferocious and cruel behemoth was like a crumbling wall, instantly riddled with holes by Hei Caosi's parasite arm, like a continuously drilling electric drill!
Hei Caosi didn't seem very agile when dodging. Fang Senyan could even feel that if it were a race on flat ground, his speed would definitely not be as good as the giant corpse beast. However, in such close combat, the giant corpse beast's size became its fatal weakness.
Hei Caosi's dodging skills were truly amazing.
In the battle, Hei Caosi seemed very familiar with the giant corpse beast's series of attack habits, always staying in places that were extremely awkward to attack, such as its back, behind its head, and under its abdomen. If he was forced into a situation where there was no space to hide in the battle, then he would forcibly create a blind spot!
In addition, the giant corpse beast's pitiful defense made it seem like paper in front of that parasite arm. Therefore, before long, chunks of flesh were peeled off the giant corpse beast's body, and the inner core was exposed to the air. That was the artificial core formed by the blood vomited by Gurga. The core was spherical in shape, but extended a large number of veins towards the surroundings like a hedgehog, constantly twitching like a heart. Hei Caosi's parasite arm opened its maw and bit a big hole in the core in one bite!
Gurgling, chewing and swallowing greedily!
The corpse beast, whose core had been severely damaged, immediately froze in place. Then, numerous corpses separated from its body and fell onto the square, then quickly turned black, dried up, and finally were blown away by the wind like mummies.
Surprisingly, Gurga had been watching his creature being killed, and a nonchalant sneer appeared on his burly face. He folded his arms in front of his chest and looked coldly at Hei Caosi. However, just as the corpse beast was about to die, Gurga suddenly raised the golden scepter high!!
