Novel Bin Chapter 764 Beatdown
Chapter 764 Beatdown
Much in the way he had quickly improved in hand to hand combat, new and inventive ideas came to Lex for how he could possibly kill the perverted creature. Yet before he attacked, Lex quickly changed out of his stealth suit and into his defensive suit. If he had been wearing this from the start, the creature would never have had the opportunity to lick his neck.
The creature also recovered from the shock it had received and had retreated from Lex. Fortunately for it, when Lex tried to slash its neck he had to let go, otherwise the creature would forever be stuck in Lex\'s vice grip. Lex\'s physical strength was abnormal from the very start, let alone now that his cultivation technique had changed. Yet oddly enough, he had not been able to crush that creature\'s neck with only one hand. Maybe using two hands would get the job done, but just surviving even one hand was a testament to how strong it was.
The creature had barely recovered its strength after devouring the blood and soul of a few dwarves, so instead of attacking Lex directly, it used its innate ability and targeted his spirit. It hissed threateningly while it extended its wings, releasing a sonic attack that would disorient Lex - or that\'s what it had thought.
With the weapon failing him, Lex relied on nothing but his good old fist and smashed it into the creature\'s face. Unexpectedly, the creature didn\'t lose any teeth in that clash!
Lex was surprised by the sturdiness of the creature\'s body, while the creature was surprised by how ridiculous Lexs strength was. The creature\'s body was easily multiple times bigger than Lex, yet it was being thrown around like a plaything.
A similar scene repeated itself a few more times while the creature tried to retaliate and Lex tried to pummel it. Neither made much progress, though admittedly Lex was venting a little by beating the creature up.
Finally, the creature became fed up and used one more of its racial traits, though the cost of this was quite heavy. The creature, who had gained a momentary respite from Lex\'s beatings began to turn illusory, as if it was fading from existence. Lex did not want to give it the opportunity to escape so he attacked again, but his fists went right through the creature, as if it were just a mirage.
Despite the situation, the creature could not resist showing Lex a smug look, though of course Lex could not decipher its facial features. The creature had an unusual affinity for spirituality, and so could convert its physical form into one akin to spirituality! In simple words, it could literally turn itself into a thought.
But the smug look on its face froze when Lex tried to grab onto it, and this time succeeded. The effects of Impervious Hands were truly manyfold, and beyond what Lex even knew. He had no idea that he was physically holding onto an idea at the moment, nor did he care. He just wished to slap the creature, so he did!
"No, wait, stop!" the creature, still with fresh blood tainting its teeth, began to cry. "We\'re not enemies! That earlier was just a misunderstanding!" The creature tried to plead with Lex, but he adhered to a strict no association with perverts rule, so he was not interested in talking to it, and smashed his knee into its face.
But no matter how Lex beat it up, the creature did not even bleed. The creature could also similarly not even get past the defense of his clothes, let alone once again try to bite his flesh. The fight, thus, seemed to be going nowhere.
"I, I can help you!" the creature pleaded! "I know the dragon\'s secrets! I know where it hides its treasures!"
"We\'re inside its treasure hoard, idiot!" Lex finally spoke, and kicked it again. No matter what, he did not let go of the creature for he had a strong feeling that if it disappeared, he would not get his hands on it again.
If physical attacks didn\'t work, he would try soul attacks…
"No, that\'s not… I, I know how the dragon died! I have its secrets! Please, just stop!"
Although Lex was not hurting it, his attacks still caused its current weak body pain. Moreover, as he got ready to use Evisceration, a subtle premonition of danger filled the creature\'s mind, making it even more desperate.
Luckily for it, it finally said something Lex was interested in.
"How would you know how the dragon died? If you were nearby, how did you survive when the dragon did not?"
"I… I have a very special ability! I can tap into the energy released by others\' thoughts around me! Although I was trapped in the prison cell, I could still read some of the dragon\'s passive thoughts from time to time. It was the only entertainment I had, so I always did my best!"
Lex narrowed his eyes as he wondered whether to give the creature a chance. It was most likely lying, but on the off chance that it wasn\'t…
"How did the dragon die? You better tell me everything, or trust me, I will make you join the dragon!"
"It… it all started a few months ago! A strange golden light filled the entire planet, even inside my cell. Later, I learned from the dragon that the same light seemed to have appeared around the entire realm, and that it was filled with mysterious laws it had never felt before. Unfortunately for it, that light was a lot more mysterious than even the dragon realized…"
