57.29% The Strongest Beast Tamer / Chapter 110: Another One

Chương 110: Another One

Lachlan didn't think too much about it. Their group was rather strong so it wasn't surprising for the Vice-Leader of Researcher's United to have heard of them. But then something shook him, his entire being was shaken to the core by what the Vice-Leader said next.

"I see you still don't know what your other half is. Oh well, you'll eventually find out when the time is right," His half blackened eyes stared through Lachlan's flesh and soul. It was like he could see everything about him.

'Wait, could it be' Lachlan stared at the body encased in thick glass, the man's black, silky hair went down to his feet, sliding across his tanned snow white skin. He was 6'0 tall with a shredded body. Almost nothing seemed odd about him except his eyes and long hair. But.

--------------------------------------------------------

His status screen sent a shock through Lachlan's system, the sight of Alfredo's race gave him a quick reminder, a reminder about his very own situation. Lachlan had found another one, another person in a similar position as him.

However, there was something unique about Alfredo aside from him being exactly the same as Lachlan. It was his weakness, a split soul.

"Your weakness, what does it mean?" Lachlan asked. He didn't both trying to take any guesses, considering Alfredo already analysed him and knew they were the same there was no point in keeping the abilities a secret.

Phoebe quickly yanked on Lachlan's arm. "What are you doing? How would he know about what you're talking about? Also, why did you give away such a big secret to someone you don't even know?"

"The other half will split the soul, from there it will begin the process of possession in an attempt to become a materialised being that can interact with this world without any obstacles," Alfredo explained, interrupting Phoebe all while slightly shocking her.

She turned back to Lachlan. "Is he like you?"

Lachlan nodded silently, Phoebe swiftly lowered her voice. This would be the first time Lachlan's come across another person like him, she didn't want to ruin it.

"What are you talking about? Do you mean there's another soul?" Lachlan asked in confusion.

"Kind of; but rather than another soul it's easier to say it's apart of your soul. However, once you reach a certain point that part of the soul will attempt to split and become a separate being. It'll cause great pain and weaken you. Unfortunately, that's not even the worst of it," Alfredo suddenly stopped talking as his eyes were engulfed by darkness.

"What's the worst part of it? Alfredo, tell me what's the worst part!" Lachlan didn't want to be left without any information. If he could prepare himself for the worst of it then he'll be in a better position.

"Kekeke, the worst part about it is that I can now come out whenever I feel like it," Alfredo's voice changed, it tuned to a higher pitch. The crackles in the voice sent shivers down everyone's spine, when those black eyes scanned them they felt themselves get devoured by darkness.

"You're not Alfredo, you're the other half," Lachlan realised what was happening and became slightly fearful. He looked at his hands then looked towards Alfredo. 'Would I become like that?' Lachlan wasn't sure.

"Kekeke, indeed I am. Welcome to my humble abode, I've been dying to meet you, the one that has yet to have their soul split. Granted, what'll happen at the later stages will be much worse," Alfredo said in a chilly tone.

"What are you talking about?" Lachlan was shaken.

"Don't worry, you won't feel a thing; those around you on the other hand will feel a lot of pain, it'll be wonderful when your other half comes out, after all, he's the strongest of us all," Alfredo's eyes went back to the half blackened state once he finished what he needed to say.

Alfredo stared Lachlan dead in the eyes. "Listen to me Lachlan, you need to increase your willpower if you want to resist them. The Leader and I roughly estimate that it needs to double for every tame, starting with 10 for the first soul contract."

"So it'll roughly go 10, 20, 40, 80, then finally 160?" Lachlan asked for confirmation. Alfredo silently nodded.

Lachlan finally realised how difficult this would actually be. He was lucky to have had 20 points in the willpower by the time he tamed Aaron, otherwise he'll be in a world of trouble. And although he currently has more than 40 points in willpower, not all of that is actually his and is really his tamed beasts.

Lachlan wasn't completely sure whether or not it would count, although he might need to test it out. He would also want to do it during the third stage, from Alfredo's other half's information it seems to get worse and worse the more tames he gets.

"Also remember, don't hesitate to go well beyond those numbers. This is only an estimate by the Leader and myself; it could very well be completely wrong so tread with caution," Alfredo warned.

"So is the Leader of Researcher's United in a similar situation as you?" Lachlan asked. He kept hearing Alfredo mention their leader which would mean the boss of Researcher's United.

"No," Alfredo looked at Lachlan fearfully. "He's in a much worse situation than I'm in. He has used up four soul contracts while only having 30 willpower; his other half easily takes control whenever it wants and wherever it wants."

"When it first showed up it was when the leader was sleeping with his family. The other half slaughtered everyone in the house, his wife and children; It didn't leave a single member behind," Alfredo said as his voice quaked. "That's why I trapped myself in this glass box, as a way to stop the other half from harming anyone important to me or attempting to destroy this world."

"Please Lachlan, if there's anything you should take away from this encounter it's that the other half is dangerous and seeks for destruction. They want to destroy everything on this planet through any means," Alfredo explained. "It will also start off with the things close to you, torture you into submission and despair before completely taking over."

"What are the other halves though?" Lachlan asked. He wanted to know everything he could about his other half, he didn't want anything happening to anyone because he was unprepared.

"Although I wasn't able to find out the Leader has. They're called-" Alfredo was suddenly stopped and his eyes were engulfed by the darkness again. "Kekeke, we'll stop right there, we don't want everything about us being spread. You should go now, there's nothing else for Alfredo to tell you."

"Don't lie, there's probably a lot of things you're hiding from us," Lachlan appeared next to the glass box and smashed his hand against it. "Tell me! Tell me everything I want to know about you!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa there boy; there's no need to get all antsy. You'll eventually find out everything you need to know, but for now, you need to find something that'll increase that willpower of yours if you ever want to stand a chance against us," Alfredo said in a chilly voice. Lachlan suddenly felt something glide across his, it felt small but terrifying.

Looking down Lachlan noticed it was Alfredo's hair, it had gone through the air pockets in the glass box. Lachlan suddenly felt someone smash against the back of his calf, he looked down a noticed a light wound.

Lachlan swiftly retreated back to the group, Phoebe quickly tore a piece of the shirt she was wearing and wrapped it around Lachlan's wound.

"Kekeke, that's just a little warning and hint from me. Should you ever lose to your other half you'll destroy everything you love," Alfredo suddenly collapsed to his knees, he looked up and his eyes were back to normal. "Quickly go, the other half is getting agitated, I can't control it once it loses control over its emotions."

"Alright," Lachlan nodded and retreated back into the elevator. The rest of the group rushed in behind him. Swiftly clicked the button to return them to their floor the doors shut.

But before that Alfredo's eyes were once again turned into darkness. "Kekeke, I'll see you at a later date Lachlan Wilson; I do hope you don't disappoint my expectations of you, especially not after I've given you so much information."

The door finally shut and they felt the elevator rocket back up to the lab. Once it stopped the doors opened and the female scientist was in front of them, waiting eagerly. "So, how did it go?"

"It went great! Sorry for interrupting your research," Lachlan said quickly before walking to the other side and entering the elevator there. With the group tagging behind and next to him, it was slightly difficult for anyone to notice the bloody cloth wrapped around his leg.

They quickly entered and clicked for the 7th floor where Zhang was currently at. The elevator shot up quickly, but when the doors opened up they saw Brianna there waiting patiently. The surgery sign wasn't lit up which meant it was completed.

Chương 111: Heading Back

"He's currently resting, the doctor said he should be able to be released in a couple of weeks. The damage done was very deep, as such, it'll take some time for him to heal them up," Brianna explained.

"We could probably give him some water or fruit from the island, it should accelerate the healing process," Lachlan suggested.

"Do we have any?" Brianna asked.

"Not right now but it isn't like we can't just go back to the island to get some. Not to mention we still needed to get those Air Stones back to the island for Flynn and Maddie to finish up the operation," Lachlan explained.

"Alright, I'll wait here till you get back, I don't want anything happening to Zhang while he's defenceless," Brianna explained worriedly.

"Okay then," Lachlan turned to face the rest of the group. "Alright, who else wants to go back to the island. Once you get back you'll first get some rest and then begin to move the island into position. Also, don't move it too far from its original position until everyone is back."

"I'll come back," Phoebe raised her hand. It was quickly followed by Chloe and Simon who both wanted to see their loved ones. The other's weren't too sure what to do, it was already getting dark and they weren't sure if they wanted to go flying in the cold weather.

"If you don't want to go, don't force yourselves. There'll be plenty for you all to do tomorrow anyway, it'll be the first day of Joseph's compensation, I want you all to keep an eye on everything happening in and around the food truck," Lachlan explained.

The rest of the group that decided against returning nodded. Joe sat down near Brianna, "Alright, we'll probably do that." Zoe sat down next to him soon after.

Lachlan nodded and walked back into the elevator followed by Phoebe, Chloe, and Simon. Brianna, Georgia, Zoe, and Joe decided they would stay behind and guard Zhang along with greeting him once he wakes up.

When they left the building Lachlan saw the clouds engulfed in an orange hue, spreading from the far corners of his vision to the other corners. The streets were still slightly active with the sounds of laughter, the pubs were filled to the brim with people drinking and eating away.

"Prepare yourselves, the trip back is going to be a long one," Lachlan warned. They decided on doing something before that though. Nearby the hospital was a clothing store, it was filled with winter clothing.

A small girl walked up to them, she looked roughly 13 years old and was a lot smaller than even Lachlan. She looked quite shy and hesitant when she walked up to the group. "Welcome! How may I help you?"

"We're looking for some warm clothing, preferably something like a windbreaker to go along with it," Lachlan replied in a friendly tone.

The girl rapidly nodded her head and gestured for them to follow. They walked to the righthand corner of the store where there were a variety of windbreakers and warm jumpers. The group quickly picked what they liked before the girl led them to the lefthand corner where there were tracksuit pants.

After they got what they needed they walked up to the counter and placed their clothes on top. A much older woman was waiting there patiently, staring at the group and the small girl since they arrived. Either she was testing the girl or guarding her.

"Is this all you'll be buying today?" The older woman asked in a gentle voice.

"Yes," Lachlan nodded.

"Alright, you won't need to be paying for this as I know who you all are, especially you boy," The woman pointed towards Lachlan. "You're the one that dominated those tyrants in front of Choripán Reyes, I'd like to thank you for that, you protect some dear friends on mine."

"Oh, you're friends with the owners of Choripán Reyes; don't mention it, I was just protecting some innocent people," Lachlan said with an embarrassed voice. He looked to the side and noticed the small girl staring at him with big open eyes.

"That's a friend's daughter, she saw you at Choripán Reyes when you took Joseph off his high pedestal," the older woman explained. "Anyway, all these clothes are a gift from this store as a thank you."

Lachlan nodded and took the bags of clothes, the group swiftly left the store before searching through the bags to find their own things. They took out everything they needed to feel warm and comfortable before walking towards Choripán Reyes, they still needed to get the Air Stones after all.

When they reached the food truck it was still rather active, however, instead of the usual owners running the truck, Valentina's parents, it was Joseph and a few of his subordinates instead.

"Welcome, welcome," Joseph came running out to meet with them. "Please sit down, let me show you my cooking skills, you'll probably be impressed by how much my skills have improved since you last saw me."

"I didn't eat anything you made last time I saw you so I don't know. Anyway, some of our group has decided to leave to go back to our base now including me. So, I'm going to need some of those crystals and I'd rather you lead me to them rather than just bringing them yourself," Lachlan quickly explained. He added the final part because he knew how ineffective Joseph's subordinates would be in terms of picking out the better stones considering they all look the same.

"Okay, I'll quickly get one of the guys in the truck to lead you to the storage facility, take whatever you want," Joseph said as he gestured towards one of the chefs in the truck to come over.

When the chef came over Joseph grabbed him by the shoulders. "You have an important task, lead these people to the storage facility and let them take those crystals, as many as they want. And remember, don't piss them off."

The chef nodded before walking to Lachlan, he gestured for the group to follow behind him. They quickly began walking towards the wall in the distance but just before then they turned off the road into an offshoot alleyway; they were led down it for a few seconds before the chef stopped and opened a small door. He had to slightly squat down to walk through.

Lachlan just walked through since he was short while the others all had to squat down slightly.

The chef reached to the side and flipped a switch, turning on the lights which opened their eyes to the large storage facility. The roof was roughly 10 metres tall and the entire building was roughly 30 metres wide and long. There were boxes that went up to the roof, filled with crystals.

Lachlan quickly analysed them.

--------------------------------------------------------

Name: Air Stone (Low)

Description: Grants the user control over the air within a limited space. To gain control one must drop their blood on it. The more crystals or the larger the crystal is, the more powerful their control over the air will be.

Location: Can be found where the air is at a high intensity or is unique to that area.

--------------------------------------------------------

Lachlan analysed a few and went forward to pick out the best ones. Unfortunately, there were only four high-ranked stones while the other ones Lachlan was bringing along with him were medium-ranked.

Lachlan looked at the stones and marvelled at their aqua-green crystal, he thought it would do great as a gift. He looked for a stone that had the most crystals and planned to give it to Sarah as a souvenir. It was a low-ranked stone but this was merely a gift.

"Alright we have what we need," Lachlan turned to the chef that led them. "Tell Joseph that some people from our group will meet up with him tomorrow, right now they're dealing with something and our little group is going back home."

Lachlan walked out of the storage facility while the others searched for a few stones for themselves. The aqua-green was deep and mesmerising, it left one in a trance just by staring at it. However, the thing that made it nice was the change in air once you own one.

Lachlan dropped a bit of blood on a medium-ranked stone to test it out. He immediately noticed the stone was a lot more than they thought. Although it could indeed control the air, the limit is boundless along with the instructions.

He was not only able to change the speed at which the wind blows around him, but also the temperature. Lachlan found that he could control the wind to move in any direction, he was able to navigate it through the nearby alleyways.

"So are we going now?" Phoebe suddenly popped out of the door behind him. Simon and Chloe followed soon after with a couple of stones in their hands.

"Of course," Lachlan nodded and they began to walk to the nearby wall. They walked along with it till they reached the exit, it was surrounded by guards armed to the teeth. They gave off a ferocious aura towards anyone and anything.

The group noticed a familiar face, it was Lucas, one of the people that greeted them when they first entered the city.

Lucas walked up to the group. "You do know it's incredibly dangerous at night, even if you're strong I wouldn't suggest putting yourselves out in the open."

Simon walked up and patted his shoulders. "You don't have to worry about us, we've dealt with this kind of environment for a long time."

Simon swiftly summoned Tempest whose head popped out around the corner outside. The group of guards quickly panicked and got into position but Lucas swiftly ordered them to stand down. Simon gave a silent nod before walking out and leaping onto Tempest.

Lachlan followed suit and summoned all three Rocs before leaping onto Calamity. He gently petted Calamity's head, brushing his hand against Calamity's soft feathers and fur. He was suddenly interrupted when Phoebe jumped in front of him and sat down. She leant back into Lachlan's chest.

"Alright you love birds we're leaving," Simon said with a light chuckle, shooting off into the air with the awe of the guards. Lachlan quickly got Calamity to go before getting Disaster who had Chloe on him to follow.

He unsummoned Catastrophe before wrapping his arms around Phoebe. He leaned back more and grabbed hold of Lachlan's arm, she wriggled around for a bit before getting comfortable.

"Are you scared Lachlan?" Phoebe abruptly asked out of the blue, her question shocking Lachlan.

"About what?" Lachlan replied.

"You don't have to hide it, it's obvious you were pretty shaken by that Vice-Leader's words, the other half's words especially," Phoebe said as she tilted her head to look at Lachlan.

"Of course I'm scared, didn't you hear what Alfredo said; the other halves seek destruction, I don't want myself to lose control and do something I won't be able to take back. He also mentioned their Leader who's also the same, unfortunately, he wasn't prepared and ended up losing his family to the other half," Lachlan's voice was slightly shaking from fear. Although he sought an understanding of what he was, the deeper he gets the more horrifying it seems; he doesn't want anything to do with it yet he has to deal with it no matter what.

"But you can be prepared and myself and all our friends will be prepared to stop you should anything go wrong," Phoebe said. "We can take it slowly as well, there's no need to search and tame many beasts right now anyway, you're doing great with what you have."

"Did you see the damage Alfredo did to my leg with just his hair, I analysed Alfredo and he didn't have the sort of strength to leave such a deep wound with hair along," Lachlan argued back, he was shaken by the strength the other half possesses. What's to say it isn't stronger when it gets its hands on a stronger vessel.

"Of course I did, but while you prepare to go against it we will as well. Although you're currently restricted to how many beasts you can have we aren't; everyone will train and tame to ready ourselves in case the worst happens," Phoebe explained.

"Alright, I'll trust you all for now, but make sure you prepare yourselves to fight against a dozen intelligent beast because that other half is sort of similar; it's incredibly smart but psychopathic and dangerous," Lachlan trusted Phoebe's judgement and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "I just hope I can prepare enough to make sure nothing bad has a chance of happening."
