Unfathomable Doomsday – 33 – Shouldering the t.i.tle of the Avenger
The dam is guarded by New China Federation’s soldiers.
Lu Qiu feels like it’s going to be dangerous to go there.
Being shot by bullets would still hurt like a b.i.t.c.h, even with a body three times more powerful than a human’s.
Lu Qiu at the moment is hiding in the forest near the dam, observing the distant dormant steel beast-like Wen Han City’s dam.
In the surroundings of the dam are large quant.i.ties of lamplights scouting the dark night, from time to time armed patrols can be seen.
The reason why there is a barracks stationed near a city, is mainly because of the currently turbulent state of this world.
Since WW3 war technology had a rapid growth. Things like the Exoskeleton Armor and Lasers have an extensive applications in wars.
Perhaps in a few years even Gundams will appear, although it would be ridiculous in the real world.1
However wearing the presently strongest war equipment, the Exoskeleton Armor, truly has s bit of a Gundam feeling.
The city seems to have something worthy of protection for New China Federation’s employment of heavy artillery, adding to the perennial flood of the upper reaches of the river. If somebody were to blow up the dam, then the city would experience a catastrophe.
“d.a.m.n it, there’s no way to get there.”Lu Qiu bit on his finger while trying to find out the patrols pattern. As a nocturnal existence, Lu Qiu can perfectly merge with the darkness, but to cross those several meters, adding on the pressure brought by overcoming the hundreds of thousands barbed wires, is simply impossible..
Although Lu Qiu is a vampire, yet he can’t turn into a bat. As a low-level Vampire, beside his body being somewhat more powerful than a human’s, there’s no other specific ability.
After Lu Qiu is capable of unleashing his bloodline’s potential, perhaps then will he be able of using the legendary Magic and the like.
But presently as a Vampire …
“Hmm?”Lu Qiu watches as the barracks heavily guarded gate suddenly opened.
Several soldiers wearing green uniforms, came out while dragging a male covered in bruises.
Following them was a fatty clothed in an Officer’s attire.
Lu Qiu focused his mind on his Vampire’s senses and was barely capable of hearing clearly what they were saying.
“Don’t think I won’t dare to kill you! Your wife followed me happily! Come back and you’re dead!”
Finished speaking, this Officer-looking fatty still kicked the male. The bruised male fell to the ground and then spit out a mouthful of blood. He was thrown out of the barracks gate just like garbage.
“Hah, green hat?” Lu Qiu continued to observe the male. The male stood up while trembling, and then left the barracks with an ashen face.2
Looking by the clothing style, the male should be a villager from the neighborhood.
Within the New China Federation’s barracks there are no female soldiers. Presumably, the fatty officer had to constantly control his own needs as a male, until he finally went outside to abduct a woman without any background.
It’s very remote around these parts, and the officer’s status doesn’t seem to be low. Even if the police gets involved, there’s still no hope.
“This desperate expression.” Lu Qiu has been watching the male as he went towards Lu Qiu’s location within the woods.
Have … a way …
“System, what happens if the Blacklight Virus isn’t diluted and is directly injected into the life form’s body?”
“Powerful transformation?”
“Becoming extremely dangerous, berserk …”
“That’s exactly what i need!”Lu Qiu just now looked through the System in a natural manner. In exchange of 1 Despair Point a container and a matching syringe appeared in his hand. After extracting a little bit of the red virus, Lu Qiu then looked at the bruised male.
Lu Qiu jumped on a tree branch, scarlet pupils observed the male gradually coming closer, as the tempting voice reverberated among the trees.
“Do you … want revenge?”
According to the human’s legends, the Vampires are a corrupted race, who lures humans in order to corrupt them and turn them into as filthy existences as they are.
Lu Qiu as a vampire, also has this kind of ability.
“Who? The black and blue beaten man raised his head, face bruised because of the beating. While some frightened, swept his eyes through the trees.
“Your wife was abducted by others, could it be that you’re giving up?”
“I …” He hesitated, initially he had a wonderful family, but then that wretched fatty came along and abducted his wife, by relying on his status as the one in charge of this prefecture’s barracks. The male had then called for the police, but the police unexpectedly claimed that he had slandered an officer Officer and threatened some soldiers, which led him to a prison sentence of two months.
After being released from prison, even though he feared death, he still embraced his hatred and went to the barracks. But after entering, he actually saw his wife being nestled in that wretched fatty’s embrace!
Without money nor influence … without anything at all, the male even lost his family.3
He was only left with hatred!
However ….
“I can’t win against them, I’ve already lost everything.”
“No … you still have your life.” Lu Qiu’s voice seemed to be uttered beside the male, as if a demon was trying to tempt him: “Do you want revenge?” As long as you give up on your life, you will obtain the power for revenge! Kill those who stole everything from you, human!”
Kill … those who stole everything from me? He became stunned.
That fatty’s hateful appearance incessantly flashed through his mind, as he clenched his hands because of his body’s aching.
Wrath and hatred filled his whole body.
Revenge … whether it is his wife or that wretched fatty, they stole everything from me.
The male felt for the first time that he lacked something.
That … was the power!
“Give me power …” He accepted the demon’s temptation.
Lu Qiu’s scarlet pupils revealed an excited radiance, just this this …
Humans falling into despair, using their lives to take vengeance.
No matter how many times he sees it, it will never tire him.
“Go and kill those that you hate, human.”
In the woods, a silver stream of silver light flashed past, the syringe was precisely shot from Lu Qiu’s hands and hit the male’ neck.
The liquid inside the syringe represents destruction, a little … a little bit was injected into the male’s neck
Then … he fell down as a sign of his death.
However, he obtained a new life!
Monster! Lu Qiu opened his eyes wide and stared at the male’s body, while standing on a tree branch.
A real … monster!
“Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr …”
The sound of a m.u.f.fled growl reverberated through the woods, the originally human body began to distort, a variety of scarlet muscles emerged above the skin and covered the body, containing devastating power. Sharp claws as long as a meter ejected from between the hands.4
Tentacle-like muscle tissue coiled in that human’s body, remolding it. Finally he became that, he transformed into a real monster and once again descended upon this world.
Close to two meters tall, limbs lying p.r.o.ne on the the ground, sharp claws overturning surface of the ground, fangs arise from inside its b.l.o.o.d.y mouth, the tongue also elongated while a corroding liquid flowed from it then dropped on to the ground, corroding the gra.s.s around.5
“Grr!”The monster uttered a growl shaking the entire woods, with its st.u.r.dy and vigorous limbs flew high into the air, leaping into the barracks.
Lu Qiu followed the monster and ran to the edge of the woods, the watched as alarmed cries erupted from the barracks.
“Let’s call you The Hunter.”6
Lu Qiu spread his hands, closed his eyes to listen to the monster’s growls, the crowd’s desperate roars, as well as the sound of bullets being shot.
“It was only the first step, the prologue to the begin of the Doomsday.”
