Chương 116: Chapter 115: The Hunger
In the badly damaged building of Spirit Pagoda, where its windows were either showing cracks or had shattered, similar to the walls of the building, heaps of piles of dismembered corpses were piled all around the building with blood pooling the entire ground; making it seem like a river of blood.
A few dozens of people and Mechas stood guard around the building, killing off any stragglers or any escaping cultists.
Several battles of groups between the allied forces of the Federation military army and Tang Sect Battle Hall agents against the evil soul masters and the ghouls could be seen in the lower floors of the Spirit Pagoda building that was connected to the secret tunnels that led outside of the city.
The battle between them was intense. Bodies of the two forces began dropping more and more with every minute that passes, with the allied forces being the ones with the most casualties despite them outnumbering the escaping cultists and ghouls.
The reason for this was because of two certain individuals that was slaughtering any members of the allied forces and helping the cultists decipher the locks of the secret tunnels for their escape.
"Hahahahaha! More. More. More. More! More! Give me more flesh and blood!" A loud blood curdling laughter echoed the highly advanced pathway, made entirely of thousand refined metallic materials capable of standing the blows of a Assault Power System Soul King easily, as heaps of blood spilling corpses filled the floor and even more as the owner of the laughter ripped a man's throat out with her mouth.
She was pale, deathly pale, with black long hair that reached her back and similar colored eyes that shone with complete unhidden bloodlust and hunger of human flesh. She has a pretty face, with a killer body; with a sizable chest which was only covered by a black sports bra; showing off her six pack abs and lithe waist, which was coupled with her skin tight black sport shorts that revealed her great curves and thicc thighs that could squash a man's head like a watermelon.
In fact, she did blown a man's head off of his neck like a balloon earlier with her legs.
She was Zhao Ming, the last of the two only females of the ghoul generals. Before her ghoul transformation, she was a officer of Skysea City's Federation military army on her break and was just training in the gym to stay fit as usual. She was a known talent in the army, having only taken her half a decade to rise to the rank of lieutenant and was just a few months away from being promoted to
Sadly, that all changed when a infected person caught her by surprise when she was treading on the treadmill with her headphones blaring her favorite rock song.
"C'mon! Give me more!" Zhao Ming roared, with a red frenzy gleam in her eyes, the still intact corpses that was on the ground started to rise up once more. "Is this best that you all got? I'm disappointed! I'm truly disappointed to find that my fellow officers and the so called legendary Tang Sect, aren't capable of taking care of little old me. Come. Don't you want to take revenge for your fellow brothers and sisters? Don't you want to save them from this damnation?"
The newly transformed ghouls, having shown to be fully healed from any injuries, spoke with their eyes staring at their former colleagues and sibling-in-arms.
"Why....? Li'er, why didn't you save me? Don't you love me? If you feel any guilt or regret, then come close to me. At least, give me one last hug...?"
"Senior brother, you...look so tasty..."
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I don't want to eat you. I don't want to eat you. I don't want to eat you. But you look so tasty, and I'm so hungry, and..."
She grinned maniacally at the group of hardened soul masters, who backed away from her and the ghouls in fear, horror and wariness.
There was a reason why she had quickly rise up in the army. Her cultivation base at the peak of Soul Emperor and martial soul called, Scarlet Tigress, most people would have that was the main reason but in truth, it was because of her sadistic and bloodthirsty nature.
Watching the fear and despair in the eyes of her enemies, Zhao Min grin widened further, 'Ah, seeing them like this is making me wet~ The fear, the anger, the terror.... Oh. Damn. I really want to scratch this pussy of mine but I don't want to let down my guard. I have no choice. I have to hold it in for now and wait till those stupid fucks and us finally get out here safely.'
It was no wonder why she had easily sided with the evil soul masters and why she didn't resist the hunger, the greatest side effect of being a ghoul.
There was a reason why those ghouls, who retain their human conscious and memories, still sided with the evil soul masters and go against humans.
It was because of the insatiable hunger shared among all ghouls. The need to eat human flesh. The hunger is so great that it can twist a person's personality and moralities, even someone with a strong mind would succumb to the call of his undead instinct.
To eat. Devour. End all human life.
"Heh, don't get too excited Min'er." A amused voice spoke up behind her and a middle aged man, above average looking; with short spiked green hair, yellow eyes, and a masculine figure, appeared.
He was Bi Tianzuo, a Soul Emperor who worked as one of the high level security guards in Spirit Pagoda, and the childhood best friend of Zhao Min; who turned into a ghoul when he tried to save her from the undead transformation. He was one of the reasons as to how they easily got into Spirit Pagoda and destroyed it; killing every members and turning them into their undead kin.
Zhao Min huffed and crossed her arms over under her chest, "Hmph. Tianzuo, always being the party pooper. Even when we're dead, you still won't let me have much fun."
Bi Tianzuo rolled his eyes, "If I don't reign you in, then I won't get to play as well."
"You could always just jump in, you know? Get in the action and shit. Don't be courteous about it." Zhao Min shrugged her shoulders with a 'its all on you' look.
In response, Bi Tianzuo raised an eyebrow. "And get rip apart by you as well? We've known each other for years, Min'er. Do you seriously think that I don't know that you wouldn't differentiate between allies and foes when you
"...." Zhao Min looked away and whistled.
They both widened their eyes as they felt a sudden oppressive feeling washed over them.
It felt like a tidal wave of the most disgusting water imaginable was near them and they took a step back just from smelling it!
They turned their heads towards across them, where they felt the weird feeling was.
Standing in front of the group of soul masters, Gu Yue, Ye Xinglan, Xi Lizhi, Shen Yi and the students of Shrek stood tall with determined expressions on their faces.
But the two ghoul generals attention wasn't on Shen Yi, a Soul Emperor and the second most powerful soul master in the group just second from the commander of the allied force; the commander's name being Cei Luo, who's a Soul Sage with a Two-word Battle Armor, and now stood besides the Shrek teacher with his martial soul, a dark colored metal bat called Big Black Bat, in hand.
No. The two generals attention was on the black haired little girl.
They knew this feeling, it was the feeling of the most disgusting and hated feeling all undead shared–light element.
Although they felt that her cultivation was low, being at Soul Grandmaster, but the Light or Holy element is the greatest weakness of an undead.
Tensions rose. Both Zhao Min and Bi Tianzuo just stared straight at the soul masters with a deadly glare that can make a weak man piss himself. They didn't spoke. No one did. Seconds passed and it seemed as if time itself had froze.
But it was far from the truth.
Zhao Min took a step forward and leaped towards Gu Yue with such speed that it seemed as if she teleported.
She already activated her martial soul, Scarlet Tigress, her body was instantly almost covered in red striking fur with black stripes. Her hands turned into a pair sharp tiger claws that can easily sliced apart an adult man in pieces in a split second. Her soul rings; yellow, yellow, purple, purple, purple, purple and black soon appeared beneath her feet.
That's right! When she became a ghoul and devoured so many humans, she broke through into the Soul Sage realm!
Bi Tianzuo wasn't far behind her as well. With his martial soul, Snake River Spear, activated and soul rings appearing beneath him, he was going towards the two strongest soul masters for the sake of preventing them from saving Gu Yue.
All seem according to plan with Zhao Min's claws, covered in a purple light–having used her fourth soul skill, to rip the head of Gu Yue to shreds.
Unfortunately however, they didn't account of the action of a certain swordswoman.
Ye Xinglan intercepted Zhao Min's claws with the yellow blade of the Stargod Sword, the twinkling lights surrounding the sword's blade sparkled intensely with a purple light as it brought the latter's attack to a complete stop.
'What?' Zhao Min's eyes widened in surprise, when she suddenly felt the hairs in the back of her neck tingle. She tilted her head back as a completely white glowing sword passed by her face and cutting off a few strands of her hair.
She shivered momentarily at the brief brush of touch of the light sword passing by a couple inches of her face before her military experience and discipline crushed her fears.
It was what had saved her in the soon relentless and fast barrage of attacks launched by both Gu Yue and Ye Xinglan; with glowing white weapons made from light elemental energy appearing around her, all aimed towards her, while blinding sword thrusts was fired in front of her vital areas but Zhao Min, in a great show of her flexibility, dodged almost all of those with a few only either grazing her and the two light sword piercing through her shoulders.
Steam rose from the wounds caused by the light swords as she blocked the Stargod Sword with her claw, slapped it away, and somersaulted away from the girls.
"Min'er!" Bi Tianzuo yelled out in seeing his childhood friend being injured by their target and a little swordwoman. He was about to go over to help her but a large tree root sprouted in front of him, stopping him.
"Ah, ah, ah. Senior, I can't let you interfere with those kids' battle, it wouldn't be fair. Instead, how about being an opponent to this junior here?" Shen Yi smirked as she took a step forward, her soul rings appearing below her and her One-word Battle Armor soon covered her body.
She may be a Healing System Soul Master, but she had gone through the hellish trainings in Shrek and her teacher, mostly her teacher, that made her combat prowess abnormal compared to other normal Healing System Soul Masters.
If she couldn't even handle a undead, then she wouldn't he worthy being a teacher of Shrek Academy, the number one academy in the world.
"Tsk! I don't have the time for you!" Bi Tianzuo clicked his tongue and twirled his Snake River Spear and swung it towards Shen Yi, only for it to hit dead still at a thick metallic black bat.
"Hmph! Don't forget about me as well!" Cei Luo, the commander of the squad, harrumphed and swung the tip of the spear away.
Bi Tianzuo took a step back to retreat but he soon realized that he was trapped in a large circle of thick bulky tree roots.
Shen Yi and Cei Luo soon engaged against Bi Tianzuo in combat.
"Tianzuo! Damn it!" Seeing her friend being trapped, Zhao Min growled. The wounds around her body still let out steam as it healed, though ever so slowly.
Even the strange swords these allied force started using wasn't as much as a pain as one using either the light or holy element. Still, their numbers had diminished considerably compared to before due to those.
'If only those old fogies from the cult would have gone with us, this whole thing would have gone without a snitch and we would have probably even pick up a few new additions as well. But the goddess made them stay at the hotel for their so called grand plan. Just what is so important that securing new blood for their organization comes as a second priority.' She shook her head, tossing such thoughts out of her mind.
She was a warrior than a strategist. She lived for battlefield and would die in it. She didn't care if those evil soul masters had some sort of grand plan that would destroy the entire world. She didn't care if she was killing innocent people or her former allies. She couldn't even give a shit if she's an undead.
She only cared about fighting in battle.
That was it.
And so, Zhao Min bared her teeth towards the two girls in front of her.
Gu Yue stared down at her coldly with a pair of steamed buns in both of her hands, having floated in the air with the help of the wind, golden ripples appeared behind her as numerous light elemental-shaped weapons took form and aimed at the ghoul.
Ye Xinglan didn't have any magnificent show of her powers. Her soul power fluctuation was calm and serene, like she wasn't going to be part of the battle. Her sword was raised straight in front of her face, that was when a domineering feeling started to emit around her. Great amount of Sword Will covered her entire body like some cloak.
They were amazing. Even when she was at their age, she couldn't even come close to the power they were radiating it.
Still, "You bitches wouldn't be enough to kill me!" With a loud war cry, Zhao Min leaped towards her opponents with her claws bare, one of her soul rings glowed, her soul skill Bloodlust Claws activated, and engaged to kill those who stood against her.
