NOVEL WEB Chapter 127: Fight at the Mansion
Splatter.
Lukas's punches broke the air, hurling airwaves at the undead men and women.
When the airwaves hit, their heads were blown into pieces.
With the coast clear, he turned to Paul and asked, "Where do you need to go to activate your ability?"
Paul pointed at the entrance of the mansion and replied, "Inside the mansion, the old man last appeared inside it."
Lukas wanted to bring Paul into the mansion but stopped.
It was too quiet.
Along the way there were many undead men and women he had to deal with.
But right now, the mansion seemed to be eerily quiet, a stark contrast to what he had encountered.
All that he could hear were the distant sirens and screams.
The gate and the door to the mansion, which were open, showed a glimpse of the dark surroundings inside.
As if it were inviting him to enter.
To be safe, Lukas summoned Shiba out of his summon space.
An amber glow appeared in front of him and Shiba stepped out of the glow.
Shiba jumped excitedly, wanting to snuggle next to Lukas.
But Lukas stopped Shiba and used his thought to instruct Shiba to go into the mansion first as a precaution.
"I promise you a treat when you are done," he said and patted Shiba on its head.
Shiba nodded and turned toward the mansion.
It walked through the front gate and entered the lawn between the gate and the mansion.
When it got to the middle of it, fireballs were hurled toward it from a window on the mansion's second floor.
The fireballs hit the ground and then bounced up from it.
With the bounce, they came at Shiba from different directions.
However, Shiba just grinned and opened its huge wide mouth.
It leaped and snapped at the fireballs with its mouth.
Within moments, Shiba had swallowed all the fireballs.
Growl.
A loud growl could be heard and a man engulfed in flames leaped out of the second floor.
When the man covered in flames landed on the ground, the flames engulfing him burned everything he touched.
The lawn and even the sand started to burn, turning into a hot burning liquid like lava.
Hassan peeked out of the window and watched.
He didn't understand why Ashen wanted him to stay here and prepare to deal with some possible 'nuisance'.
Lukas seemed like any other awakened with summoner ability.
And his summon beast didn't even look that powerful.
The infected man engulfed in flames with Master Level of Mastery for his S Level Fire Ability should be more than sufficient to deal with them.
And if not, he had more backups.
Whoosh.
The man engulfed in flames lunged at Shiba.
Shiba didn't bother to dodge, and it opened its mouth, shooting out huge fireballs at the man.
Boom!
The fireballs hit the man, and an explosion ensued.
The man was hurled back toward the mansion, smashing through the wall, and lay on the ground.
Growl.
The man could only give out a low growl as he tried to get up.
He couldn't.
Only the lower half of his head was left.
The flames engulfing him dissipated and the man lay on the ground motionlessly.
Now that Lukas had upgraded his summoner ability, a familiar sound erupted in Lukas's mind.
[Ding!]
[Slaughter Points +600]
[Current Slaughter Points: 2800/40000]
[Host Level: 6]
[Current Abilities: 6]
On top of what he had gotten earlier killing off the undead men and women along the way, he now had 2800 Slaughter Points in total.
Close enough for another ability upgrade.
Hassan frowned at what had happened.
Being able to take out an S Level awakened, Shiba was much more powerful than he had expected.
He raised his hands and with his ability commanded the other infected awakened to take care of Shiba and Lukas.
Lukas saw Hassan and he activated his Gravity ability, making the surroundings half of what was normal.
He took a step and leaped at the second floor of the mansion where Hassan was.
Wham!
After he shot into the air, Lukas unleashed his lightning strikes at Hassan.
A man appeared from behind Hassan, pulling him away.
Boom.
The lightning strikes hit and the explosion blew a hole in the second floor of the mansion.
However, the man wasn't dead and he lunged at Lukas who was still in the air.
His hands were now metallic and sharpened like spears.
The man tried to stab at Lukas's neck with them.
However, before he could reach Lukas, he dropped drastically to the ground instead.
Lukas had activated his Gravity ability and doubled the gravity in the surroundings.
Thud.
When the man fell to the ground, giving out a loud thud, Shiba followed up with its huge mouth.
It tried to take a bite at the man's head.
The man tried to stop Shiba by stabbing his sharp pointed metallic hands at Shiba.
Clank.
It was, however, futile.
Shiba's scales were too strong for his metallic ability.
Snap.
Its jaws closed and snapped at the man's head.
Shiba was surprised that it didn't manage to bite anything.
When it took a step back, it saw that the man's head had melted away like liquid metal.
Shiba tilted its head and took a bite at the man's body next.
This time, there was no running away and it took a huge chunk of the man's body with its huge mouth.
The man twitched and Shiba didn't stop.
It kept going until the body of the man was ripped into many pieces.
...
Meanwhile, Lukas landed on the second floor of the mansion and he chased after Hassan.
Growl.
When he got out of the corridor, two undead men lunged at him from the sides.
He unleashed a lightning strike at each of them, and continued his way down the flight of stairs to the ground floor.
When he got down the last step of the staircase, he reached the huge living hall.
Hassan was standing at the other end, ready for Lukas with two infected awakened standing in front of him.
One of them opened his mouth, put his pinkie finger into it and took a bite at it.
He ripped it off his hand and started to munch on the pinkie finger.
As he did so, he mumbled something at Lukas.
The next moment, Lukas felt a splitting headache and he felt like knocking his head against the wall to make it go away.
The other man then lunged at Lukas.
