Chapter 879 Unable To Win
Olivia had been striking Raven with everything she had. She was unaware that the blood even inside his body had the same acidic nature as the rest of the Hydra, but she didn’t let that stop her.
Because, even though her nails would disintegrate because of his blood, she was still able to pierce and hurt him. So she just needed more time. Extending her hand out, she allowed for her nails to grow super strong.
She was confident with this; she would be able to pierce through Raven’s heart. Just moments before her nails ripped through his skin though, the neck that was dangling with the head high above, Raven’s eyes had turned black.
From the infected Altered solution, his strong will, now that his body was weak from the constant attacks, was starting to fade.
“I can’t die, I can’t die until I destroy everyone and everything involved with my brother!” Raven shouted.
The infected solution, his Altered self was taking over, and it was making the powers in his entire body rise. The acidic nature of his blood had become even more potent, destroying her nails as soon as they went into his body.
Right after that, with his regular hands on his body, a punch was delivered sending Olivia right back into the ground, her body cras.h.i.+ng into the concrete floor, creating a large crater where she had landed.
“Olivia!” Marie shouted.
Due to her cla.s.s, her body had just about recovered, but the same couldn’t be said for the other werewolves. When she jumped to Olivia’s side, she looked at her hand. Part of her fingertips were burnt away, and she seemed to have been hurt quite a bit by the singular punch.
“This should help you heal up and get you back up on your feet.” Marie stuck her nails directly into Olivia’s back. It didn’t take long for the large amount of energy to course through her body.
The pain was fading away, and her fingertips were already looking better.
“You"re… like a giant healer Werewolf,” Olivia commented.
“Yes… but I’m worried it might not be enough for us to take him out!” Marie said as she looked at the creature in front of her.
Black smog was seen above each of the Hydra’s heads. It was clear something had happened, something was different compared to before. She didn’t want to admit it, but Olivia had a sinking feeling in her stomach, worried that the person in front of them might have just gotten stronger.
“After our own power-up, he just goes ahead and has another one of his own… and now, we don’t have the element of surprise left either,” Olivia complained as she looked up.
Multiple heads were covering the sky; some of the heads had even crashed into parts of the restaurants on the side, causing them to tumble onto the main street.
While the head of Raven was continuing to float.
“This city took my brother, so I’m going to take everything away from it now!”
One of the heads had come out, and as it had done before, it came out even faster than they did before. It opened its mouth wide towards one of the werewolves and snapped down at it.
The werewolf had lifted its hands trying to stop it, but the mouth snapped shut, and half of its body could be seen falling to the ground while the other half had disappeared completely.
Izzy, who was standing at the back of the thing, was constantly shaking her head.
“No. No, that thing has gotten faster and it’s stronger than before, there’s nothing else we can do, nothing else we can do! Everyone, we have to run, no matter what!”
Ian and Numba had heard the words, but they didn’t want to run away; it felt wrong to them, but before they could even do anything, they felt the hair strands from Izzy drag their feet, and they were getting out of the area.
Seeing them leave, a lot of those that were hiding in the restaurants started to make a run for it as well.
The mouths continued to go down, and went for the werewolves, crus.h.i.+ng them. Not only was it the werewolves though, even the remaining members of the Phoenix Gang, they were being bitten up as well.
Then finally, the large heads went straight for Olivia and Marie. Marie went in headfirst and placed both of her hands up, stopping one of the mouths from hitting them. At the same time, Olivia had extended out her nails to pierce through the top of the mouth trying to stop it from consuming them.
They were struggling as both of them were fighting against the closing of the mouth. This wasn’t just a slight increase in strength, but it was a major increase in strength.
“Marie, I just want to say something to you; you grew up real quick in this dangerous world, and I felt like I was part of what made this world dangerous, you know… and now, everything is coming to bite me back for what I’ve done.”
“It feels like what’s happened right now, this is my punishment, but for you… this shouldn’t be the end for you, yet, I was the one that dragged you into this.”
“Shut up!” Marie shouted as she pushed open the mouth wider, to the point the jaw had broken and split apart. “Don’t talk like you’re dying, because we’re not dead yet!”
Just as she finished her sentence though, a large head swung its body bas.h.i.+ng into the two of them from the side. They were lifted off their feet cras.h.i.+ng into the wall, and right after that, several of the heads dived into the building, biting apart parts of it and melting it down completely.
Izzy, running off with the two boys to help, was only able to witness the scene that had occurred just then.
"This is… a loss for the Howlers gang… we have lost this fight, and lost Burnham Food Street." Izzy gulped down her sorrow, but she feared since they weren’t able to stop Raven, what would become of the rest now?
