Chapter 576: 38 Ignition
Rustle, rustle.
A large and bizarre figure emerged from the woods and halted in front of Bai Wei.
He should have been human.
Because he was covered entirely in human limbs and organs.
But the reason it's only "should" is because those limbs and organs... were a bit too many.
Not to mention those severed limbs growing from all directions like tentacles, just on his face alone, there were seven mouths. Each mouth seemed like a starving person finally seeing food, drooling uncontrollably.
This was Abek.
He stared at Bai Wei, making muffled "gurgling" sounds, indecipherable to ordinary people.
But Bai Wei could understand.
He was shouting "Visas."
Bai Wei sighed softly, "Accidentally created something incredible again, huh."
Apparently, on his way here, Abek had devoured and assimilated the remnants of those Devourers previously Dominated by Bai Wei.
Hmm... should I say assimilated?
Or is it that two madmen coming together have become even crazier?
"Do you remember my voice, Mr. Incisor?" Bai Wei asked kindly.
Abek tilted his head, looking at Bai Wei, a flicker of struggle in his eyes, but it was soon suppressed by the endless devouring instinct.
"Visas..."
"Here..."
"I found you!"
"Found you! Found you!"
The mouths on his face spoke, one after another, their tones shifting from bewildered to excited, then to uncontrollable impulse.
Then he lunged towards Bai Wei, all seven mouths speaking in rare unison.
"Devour you!"
After a soft "tsk," Bai Wei immediately retreated, forming hand seals. Instantly, countless Magic Chains shot from the ground towards Abek.
However, as many Magic Chains as Bai Wei commanded, Abek had just as many hands.
While beasts typically move on four limbs, Abek moved with many limbs on the ground, using a few sturdy ones for running while his other limbs deftly caught the approaching Magic Chains.
His speed remained unaffected, now appearing as a wild bull breaking through countless shackles, rapidly closing in on Bai Wei.
Yet, Bai Wei did not panic. He first controlled the captured Magic Chains, wrapping them around Abek's limbs, deepening their bond with him.
Then, the roaring sound of a chainsaw echoed, and the limp Magic Chains quivered as if electric current surged through them.
[Overload]!
In an instant, these Magic Chains, which a second ago seemed like mere strings, became strong and forceful, their power and strength increasing by dozens of times, as if driven by machinery.
"Whish!"
Abek's numerous limbs were torn apart in an instant by the Magic Chains, and severed limbs and flesh soared like dandelions in the air.
And Abek resembled a dandelion that had lost its petals, leaving only a bare stalk.
However, he still did not stop advancing towards Bai Wei, as if he felt no pain, and without the burden, he ran even faster than before.
"Clang!"
Bai Wei drew the Serrated Knife from his back, and as it unfolded, he sliced his palm, letting his blood coat the blade.
Then, he advanced and swung the knife.
Though Abek was quick, with the support of [Overload], Bai Wei could surpass Abek's speed in a moment or two.
So the Serrated Knife cut into Abek from his left chest.
With a "swish," the blade exited from Abek's right shoulder.
The already bare body split into two once again.
However, it only remained bisected for a few seconds.
Tentacles suddenly sprouted from the cut surfaces of Abek's upper and lower halves.
These tentacles rapidly grew and intertwined within seconds, forcibly "rejoining" the two halves before they hit the ground, merging them back into one.
This scene was also caught by Bai Wei, but he wasn't surprised, as the attack wasn't meant to kill Abek.
It was to get the blood he had earlier smeared on the blade into Abek's body.
As for why...
Under the left eye's [Gaze], Bai Wei watched his blood spread wildly inside Abek's body, like an unstoppable virus, swiftly reaching his brain.
Then he formed hand seals.
The same seals as the "Blood Introduction" Hunter Statue behind Abek.
With a "boom"!
Abek's head exploded, blood and brains splattering through the air like a smashed watermelon.
Rustle, rustle.
The shattered head grew countless tentacles again, attempting to repair the brain as before.
However, the scattered blood transformed into Fierce Fire, burning everything it touched.
Yes, this is the Blood Introduction technique of the Senluo Hunter.
As the soul of Visas, Bai Wei has always been able to inherit the abilities of the Host.
Such as Ulu's [Fog Barrier Karma Fire] and [Magic Chains], Gerard's [Overload], and some of Hewinia's Chorus Magic.
And a few days ago, Bai Wei did have a new Host.
Even though they collaborated for only an hour, and the other party didn't even get to know who Bai Wei truly was.
But that wasn't important, Bai Wei still obtained their most crucial ability.
Yes, the Blood Introduction technique of the old Hunter Ryan.
