Chapter 72 Pipe Man
A middle-aged man was covered in golden light and every inch of his body was undergoing tremendous changes.
His bones, cells, tissues, and organs are no more than mere human systems. But a different existence entirely. It was like he was born anew.
Under these changes, everyone stared at him in awe, envy, fear, and hatred. Yet, no one dares to disturb the mysterious light.
After a couple of seconds, the golden light turned into a speck of particles and disappeared into thin air.
When the man opened his eyes, they flickered with a golden color and a golden circle appeared on his head.
"Ferrokinesis" He murmured and a light smile appeared on his face.
The metal pole in his hand suddenly twisted, reshaping into an arrow. He nodded and looked at the rats with a confident smile.
Swoosh!
The metal pole disappeared from his mind and appeared in front of the nearest rat.
Pu chi!
It crushed the head of the rat-like it was nothing. It whistled toward the next target and reaped their life like nothing.
"It is too long and too big." He murmured.
The metal pole appeared in front of him, oscillating gently in front of him. He blinked his eyes and concentrated on the metal pole.
Suddenly, some of the metal parts began to fall off. After another round of reshaping, the metal pole does not like a pole anymore.
It was thin, sharp, and deadly. Seeing this, he exhaled and wiped the bead of sweat from his forehead.
\'I guess my power is still limited.\' He thought for a second before his eyes darted to the ongoing battle.
"Die!" he shouted.
No one saw how the deadly arrow moves. Only the first Circle existence among them could follow the trajectory of the metal arrow.
Nika and the others squinted their brow. Although, they were busy fighting the rats. They still pay attention to what is happening in their surroundings.
Thus, the birth of a new First Circle Existence didn\'t come as a surprise. But the power he willed shocked them a bit.
Most especially, both Nasir and Chloe don\'t have combat abilities. They were jealous for a moment before they shook their heads and concentrated on the fight.
The sudden birth of a First Circle Existence changed the battle\'s direction.
The science teacher jumped over the barricades and appeared in the hot zones.
Seeing him, the three other people looked at him and nodded. He replied with a nod and concentrated on the fierce fight.
Nika had been conserving his power from the start of the fight due to his injury.
However, he notices his body recovering with each kill he makes. A curious smile appeared on his lips.
\'This is crazy. But I don\'t go crazy, how would I survive in this crazy world?; He thought with determination.
His ability was Enhanced Combat. The more he fights the more the prowess of his ability would be revealed.
Having determined, he jumped over the last barricades and appeared in the ocean of rats.
At once, the rats swarmed him from both sides.
Gasped!
Everyone looked at Nika\'s crazy actions with mouths ajar. Did he really have to do that!? Nasir thought in dismay.
Everyone fixed their gaze on the crazy guy, waiting for his action. And behold, he didn\'t disappoint.
A golden circle appeared on Nika\'s head and a myriad of fists flew out in quick succession.
Boom!
It was like a god of war appeared on the battlefield. The 2 meters around him were devoid of any rats.
The rats squeaked and looked at Nika in wariness. Yet, he didn\'t care about the sudden pause in the rat\'s attack.
"Don\'t think you can push us like we\'re nothing." Nika\'s voice resounded on the battle scene.
He rushed toward the rats with a powerful fist. Since most of the rats were ordinary beasts, they posed no threat to him at all.
Whoosh!
Three dangerous darts appeared in front of him like a phantom. Albeit he was caught off guard, he twisted his body at an impossible angle.
The First, dart scraped past his waist. He didn\'t wait for a second and jumped backward and performed a backflip, twisting in the air.
The second dart missed him totally under such a perfect acrobatic display.
While he was still in the air, he sent a powerful missile toward the last dart.
A golden flashed past his fist toward the dart and they collided.
Boom!
The last sneak attack turned into smithereens. He landed and took a deep breath.
What he just did was based on instinct, trusting his ability and it was done in under three seconds.
Insane!!!
The people watching the battle from the back cried in their hearts. They knew those that control the shelter were powerful. But how powerful, now they have their answer.
Meanwhile, Nika didn\'t relax after diffusing the three sneak attacks. He looked in the attack direction and the corner of his lips raised a bit.
Whoosh!
He disappeared from his position and his silhouette flickered in the far distance while killing every rat on his way.
"Pipe Man, hold down the fort till I return!" Nika\'s loud voice echoed from the distance.
Everyone creased their brow and looked at a certain man. Noticing the numerous gaze on his body.
The man shouted.
"Don\'t call me Pipeman. I\'m Steven" Steven screamed while his arrow pierced three rats in succession.
A chuckle escaped from the group, but no one uttered a word. They continue to kill the rats with seriousness.
Albeit the pressure had been lessened by Steven and Nika.
With the advent of Steven, many ordinary people joined the fight with strong conviction.
If he can do it. I can also do it.
Now, the strength of everyone has increased by a wide margin. Except for the First Circle Existence who didn\'t have any obvious change.
Vroom!
The loud creak of tires echoed from the North and everyone turned their head.
Three Military Convoys race toward them at an extreme speed.
