Chapter 921 One Trouble Left
While Gary and Sin were fighting in the main parts of Cipen, it wasn’t exactly quiet in other areas. In Burnham food street, they were having major struggles themselves.
Marie and Olivia had both been in tough fights along with several people who had supported them, including Izzy, Numba, and Ian, in taking down Raven.
Raven, a member of the Phoenix Gang, was a special Mythical Altered type beast that imitated that of a Hydra. He had great strength, and he seemed unkillable to the group.
Each time they ripped one head apart, several would grow in its place, and they had another worry on top of that, the poisonous acidic blood of the Hydra itself. It made it almost impossible to take Raven down.
Even with both Marie and Olivia advancing further in their Werewolf cla.s.ses, in the end, they were no match for Raven. f?e?we?n??el.???
The public was watching everything from the restaurants and were unable to come out. Now with no one left to fight them, Raven was walking through the streets with his several heads going through the entire area.
A group of people cowered behind one of the restaurant dining tables. They were peeking out from the window, and they could see large scales moving about. All of them shook with fear as they saw the head pa.s.s the window.
Until it eventually stopped, and reversing back, the head was now staring back through the window, its eyes looking deep into everyone in the restaurant.
“All of you are guilty, for forgetting and doing nothing about my brother! And you shall receive the same treatment as he did, death!” the large head broke through the window.
An echo of screams followed at the top of their lungs, covering themselves and wondering what to do, but the head moved too fast toward them. It was aiming right for a family that had nothing but the table for protection.
They felt a gust of wind past their face, loud footsteps on the wood until a strange foot, that looked like that of a horse hoof, had come out slamming right into the center of the head, pus.h.i.+ng it back.
“All of you head to the back, and get out as soon as you can!” Vere shouted.
Vere was a member of the Howlers that had been brought in from the tier 4 city Gary had found some trouble in. She had joined and was close to Austin, and was a skilled fighter before she was an Altered, and now as an Altered she was even stronger than before.
She had even been in the fight at the restaurant where the first attack from the Phoenix Gang had occurred. However, when the attack on the city took place, she was outside in the middle of the streets.
She was dealing with everything that she could see in sight, trying to get to one of the areas and helping others until she had finally arrived at Burnham food street and the situation wasn’t exactly good here either.
Even though she had kicked the head of the large snake, it had only moved back slightly before it attempted to open its mouth and bite right through her.
In the middle of opening its mouth, though, black tentacles surrounded the entire Hydra’s head and were holding the mouth shut.
“Good job, Vlad,” Vere said.
Vlad had also been traveling with Vere, never leaving her side, and was here to help. Those in the restaurant moved to the back, trying to get out of the exit.
They could see all members of the Howlers had been trying incredibly hard for a while now… but it looked like it wasn’t going to be enough.
To the side of the restaurant, another giant snake head ripped through the walls, breaking it with ease. It then bent its neck up, bearing its mouth like that of a snake, and looked at where Vlad and Vere were going to be at.
This was too tough of an enemy for them to handle. The second head moved in toward them, but Vlad didn’t let go of the head that was trying to bite Vere; he wouldn’t, and she knew this as well.
“c.r.a.p!” she shouted.
Until she saw a large figure come out from the side, he held a large light blue club in his hand and lifted it with both of his hands. The moment the head came toward him, he slammed it down right on top of the giant snake’s head.
The head bent inwards, blood splattered across the room, and the head was moving no more.
The large man pulled the club out from the head and turned to the mouth that was looking at Vere. Then from his hand, he had formed a giant Ice spear and threw it as hard as he could, stabbing it right through another of the Hydra’s heads.
The Ice spike went through the skin and stuck in the middle; the green liquid started to pour on the ice, but at the same time, the ice spike spread its powers, freezing part of the head.
“Who… are you?” Vere asked.
“I am an ally, sent to help the people of Slough, sent by Gary. If you need a name though, you can call me Ice!” Just as Ice said those words, another Hydra head broke through the wall and hit him in the stomach, causing him to drop his club.
He held onto the head tight though, and while holding onto it, it started to freeze over. Eventually, it froze enough to the point Ice slammed the head onto the floor, breaking part of the ice along with the head.
“Gary was right, his city is in trouble, so we will help him.”
“We?” Vere asked, wondering who was the other that was here to help him, and where did Gary get to meet such strong people.
