BXBX NOVEL Chapter 746 More Guests To The Party.
More paragons began to arrive after the little bout. Another brute with white shiny metallic scales arrived. The two brutes stood in front of the shaking and clearly distraught speedster. The last to arrive was the immortal power. It has red scales and its size is somewhere between the brutes and the speedster. Speedsters have small bodies while the brutes are broad and huge.
The three newcomers stood in front of the speedster and protected it. Even so, the speedster is still shaking and its eyes are wide open in shock. It cuts a sorry figure. The speedster couldn\'t believe what had happened and it couldn\'t believe what it is seeing right now. In fact, all four of them couldn\'t believe what they are seeing.
Soverick is standing with one of his feet deep within the chest of the other speedster. This speedster is missing the bulk of its tail because Soverick cut it off with his blade. He had swung his blade at the speedster just as it was about to grab the flag and his blade cut through its hip without resistance.
The event shocked the victim more than the pain caused by the event. The fact that it was harmed by a furry at all stunned him rather than the pain of losing its tail. It fell to the ground only for Soverick to stamp its chest with his foot. That nailed the speedster down and stopped it from moving entirely.
It gave Soverick the chance to try and nab the other speedster without interference. But he too couldn\'t move. Or he would have chased after the second speedster himself instead of using law spells.
His foot had gone through the whole chest. If it still had organs, then he would have crushed every organ within the chest and the spine. As it is, the chest has been blasted open to accommodate his foot. That\'s why the speedster is not moving at all.
He did all of that while also shooting spells at the other speedster. If not for the brute with their enhanced physical defense and strength then the other speedster would be dying too. He considers the result of his effort to be subpar. But the paragons don\'t think so.
The sight is surprising to the other paragons. It is like Soverick impaled the speedster with his whole foot. It wasn\'t that difficult to do since speedsters have below-average physical attributes. They are light, have low mass, low body density, and low physical defense. So anyone can impale a speedster with their foot as long as they have average physical strength. It is just that they haven\'t ever seen a furry do it.
Soverick coughed to draw their attention away from the body lying around his feet. It was then that they took a good look at him. He has four strange eyes and golden fur. He is more than 2 meters tall but that is only short to them. The smallest of the paragons is at least half a meter taller than him. Some of them like the brutes reach 5 meters in height.
All of them are way taller than him. They literally look down on him. But he has something that none of them have though. He has some sort of golden lightning bolt writhing around him. They have seen something like it except the lightning bolt isn\'t golden like his. The sight of the golden bolt entering and leaving his body filled them with dread.
"Let me introduce myself." He said when they looked at him.
"I am Soverick Ghastorix. I am the child of the plane of the Virut plane. What are your names?" He asked them.
They were stunned again. It is not every day that a damned furry dares to talk to them with such confidence. Furries are usually cowering at their feet where they can be stomped to death just like he did to their comrade. Even then, he spoke to them as if his foot is not sharing the space that the liquified organs of their friends should be occupying had they been solid.
So it is not a wonder that they remained silent. They were too shocked to speak. They would have laughed that a furry killed a paragon were they not seeing how easy and effortless it had been. It all seems like a dream or a hallucination or worse, it could be a nightmare. They are desperate to wake up from whatever this is, not to indulge in it.
The remaining speedster slumped to the ground and moaned. "Vitain is dead."
Soverick said to console the distraught speedster, "Don\'t worry. He isn\'t dead yet. He is only dying. Death is not possible during the competition. He will disappear soon."
A battle sage with so much injury would have blacked out already and be removed from the competition to prevent their death. But vipers have a lot of vitality and they can keep functioning as long as they still have their connections. They share the pain they are feeling across their connections so that they can keep fighting. The speedster at his feet has been stunned and incapacitated but it is not dead yet. It is dying and will die if nothing is done to save him though.
Right." The distraught speedster said in realization. Then it shouted to the others. "Quick, we have to save him."
It was shocked by the sight and even more distressed because he thought that the speedster would die. It has forgotten that death wasn\'t possible for them in the competition. They never had a need for that feature in the competition because they never died in the competition. The death of a paragon is a monumental thing.
Every Viper connected to a dead paragon will feel the pain of their passing. So they can all feel some of the pain that the near-death speedster is going through since all of them have been connected through the immortal link. Also, if a paragon is killed by another paragon, then their connections will be taken so they never even tried it during the competition. That\'s why the speedster was so distraught.
