Chapitre 448: Great Minds (Part 2)

Panic spread like wildfire in the main hall. The convened nobles screamed in terror at the sight of their peers, people that they had known all their lives, turning into hideous creatures.

The bodies of the meat puppets' carriers burst through their clothes like inflated balloons. A single touch was all that it took to assimilate those too close or too terrified to dodge their deformed limbs.

Tista and Dorian had tried to destroy the creatures before they could become more than an overgrown lump of flesh. Unfortunately, when the nobles saw the bloated monsters rearrange their organs and muscles, terror had turned into horror.

Some fainted or remained frozen in place, but most of them ran away disregarding anyone's but their own safety.  The frenzied crowd almost trampled the two mages and managed to slow down Lith's and Jirni's reaction.
