NOVEL WEB Chapter 31 - Boodlust Part 2
Adam's eyes burnt red at the sight of the blood of the 7 beasts that were sliced apart by his Dual Slash as his heart began to beat wildly.
From each pulse of his heart, he could feel a burning energy surge and spread throughout his body as the only thought that clouded his mind was killing.
He could feel his veins bulge and protrude throughout his body and the Bloodlust characteristic was beginning to take over as he charged at the beasts that were charging at him.
The first beast he clashed with was an LVL 5 Artic Fox that was the closest and one of the faster beasts, but was still instantly slashed in the neck and killed in a single strike by the bloodthirsty Adam.
The more blood he spilt the more engrossed in the massacre Adam was becoming as he was becoming less and less aware.
Battling against two LVL 6 coyotes, Adam was slashed by the back, but in such a crazed state his feeling of pain was numbed to a point it was almost non-existent.
"You will all die" he bellowed demonically as he felt more and more of the Bloodlust pumping through his veins.
Dual Slash
As he crossed his blades then slashed outwards, Adam used another 3 MP on a Dual Slash that hacked down another 6 beasts before him as he turned around and pounced on the beast that slashed him from behind.
He had a fiendish and demonic aura the more he was becoming infatuated in the Bloodlust and the less control he had over himself as he seemed to be more beast-like than the beasts themselves.
With his two daggers, he repeatedly stabbed the beast that he had pinned down as blood splashed onto his face and his body.
Instead of feeling disgusted or annoyed by the blood all over him, Adam began to laugh hysterically as he blitzed towards the rest of the different types of Canidae beasts that had grouped together.
When integrating with the characteristic, Adam had no idea of what it would feel like to have such a thick Bloodlust and to lose control and would never have thought it would have been so extreme.
However, the power and ruthlessness it gave him was undeniably a massive advantage in battle.
He felt the more he killed the more powerful he would become, but along with the power, there was the ever-growing insatiable desire to kill.
Dual Slash
He flung another two blades of energy at a group of coyotes that sliced them apart, burning another 3 MP.
Yet despite the loss of MP, Adam could feel his body brimming with an endless stream of power that was continuously being produced and circulating around his body.
Releasing another demonic cry, Adam was struggling to keep control as he felt that he needed to keep killing as he continued to slice apart the Canidae beasts that were dwindling in numbers.
Adam's Bloodlust and killing intent were so dense and strong that even the beasts that were meant to be vicious and attack him were beginning to whimper in fear.
Like a savage beast, without remorse, Adam dashed towards them and without sparing a single one of them, decimated every Canidae beast he had found in the area around him.
Yet even after the discovery of their not being beasts around him he still felt his blood boiling and the uncontrollable urge to kill.
He was unsure of how much he had progressed and what he had gained from all the beasts he had defeated, but he was too centred on his desire to kill to think about anything else.
The urge was beginning to turn into pain as his heart rate began to lower and he was beginning to calm down, but his body was in excruciating pain as the power boost was beginning to wear off.
"Noooo" he roared as the pain was beginning to settle in.
The Bloodlust was beginning to dissipate, yet Adam didn't want it to go and weirdly wanted the urge to kill and the burning power within himself to return.
Bringing up all the rage he could accumulate as he looked around at the blood bath that he lay in, Adam was beginning to feel the rapid pulsation of his heart as the rest of his body returned to the feeling of internal burning.
"I still have to defeat this dungeon in one go" he roared as he reawakened the Bloodlust that was beginning to be suppressed.
The characteristic itself fed off the desire to kill and would push the body past its limits, but without anything to kill it was beginning to falter.
Knowing this, Adam who had gained some control over his actions, dashed towards the higher levels of the mountains where he knew there was a powerful beast that may be the boss of Floor 1.
He trudged upwards through the snow as the winds and the cold became stronger.
His body was in immense pain and seemed to be a side effect of the crazed state that Adam was in that allowed him to boost his power that the system never mentioned.
After almost 20 minutes of climbing up the mountain at his full speed, Adam could finally see the peak that he recognised as the place that he had initially spawned into and saw the powerful beast.
Sensing the arrival of somebody to its abode, the large beast strolled out of its cave with a furious expression.
Now with a clear sight on the beast, Adam saw that it was some sort of snow leopard and seemed to be extremely powerful.
Adam with a target in sight felt his Bloodlust resurrecting, but could feel that it was straining his body even more to enter the powerful state the Bloodlust characteristic allowed him to enter.
Only being in a Dungeon Form, Adam didn't care about the damage inflicted to his body as his only aim was to defeat the beast before him to not only complete the dungeon, but also to relieve the urge to kill.
