Thriller Paradise

Chapter 61 The Peerless Garlic 15

Generally speaking, Professor Ashford’s Mutant still had a human shape. Half of his face looked like a zombie, falling apart from decay; his eyes were bulging like a balloon, one that might pop at any moment; his hairstyle was a replica of Mr. Einstein’s. However, his upper body had the appearance of a werewolf, filled with fur and his hands were claws, and his back was rather unique in the sense that his elbows, the back of his feet, and his spine had saw-like bones peeking out. The rest were the properties of a vampire; the very few exposed patches of skin were pale, and he had the iconic fangs in his mouth.

In Feng Bujue’s eyes, the appearance of this boss represented three things: it had a head, it was afraid of garlic, and it could be tripped.

The skill that Feng Bujue had used was ’Below-the-belt Shin Kick’, which he could use three times. Its description was ’Ignoring Mastery Level, there is a 100% percent of toppling monster that can be toppled over and angering said monster to target you.’

"You go ahead to deal with the Anomaly. Leave this to me." While the mutant tried to get up, Feng Bujue made use of the chance to launch several attacks aimed at the mutant’s head. The spraying blood and dull thuds were enough to explain how heavy-handed the man was. After all, he had taken the serum already, and he was not afraid of being infected from contact with the blood.

Pan Feng saw that and, for some reason, felt that he was not needed to deal with this.

"Okay... We’ll come help you after we’ve dealt with the Anomaly," he said before jumping down the rail.

The effect of Brain Concussion triggered twice, and the monster was kept to the ground by Feng Bujue for more than ten seconds before it could get up again after losing much blood. At one point, it almost got up but crumbled back down due to the stun effect. When the mutant successfully stood on its feet, Feng Bujue turned to escape. Naturally, the boss chased after him. Unless someone could use the shameless skill to trip it again, it would not be changing its target anytime soon.

"Xiao Tan, come and help me!" Feng Bujue raced around the platform and screamed, his voice echoing in the empty stadium. Wang Tanzhi had just recovered from his earlier fall. He answered, found the nearest stairs, and raced to the highest platform.

Feng Bujue led the mutant on a wild goose chase. His route was very simple, tracing the edge of the highest platform, which looked relatively wide. He did not want to compete in a race on the uneven stairs with this kind of monster who could maintain its speed while running on the wall.

As Xiao Tan reached the top of the stairs, Feng Bujue was running toward him from the left. Both of them carried flashlights, so they could see each other’s location clearly. Feng Bujue saw Xiao Tan’s approach and screamed, "Trip him with your baseball bat!"

"Okay!" Xiao Tan stood one platform lower and retrieved the baseball bat. He turned to the left and assumed his position. Feng Bujue ran past him, and Xiao Tan swung with all his might. The bat landed squarely on the monster’s calf.

With a thud, Xiao Tan felt as if both of his arms were about to be shaken loose; he lost the bat in the heavy collision and had no idea where it went. The mutant’s physique was impossibly strong. Even after the bat came in direct contact with its bone and made such a loud sound, its leg appeared uninjured.

Of course, Feng Bujue knew that the monster’s bones were hard, or else its skull would have cracked when he assaulted it earlier. Furthermore, the fact that the monster was able to break through the building’s window earlier was enough to support that observation. Fortunately, even if they did not break its leg, they did manage to trip it.

Feng Bujue started to slow down after he ran past Xiao Tan. He was about to turn around when he heard the sound of an attack. He aimed his flashlight at it and saw the mutant sliding toward him on the ground headfirst...

"Use your knife to slice its leg tendons!" Feng Bujue yelled as he pulled out the Winchester and aimed a shot right at the monster’s skull. Xiao Tan jogged to catch up from behind. He pulled out the knife and stabbed the back of the monster’s leg before sawing like it was a piece of wood.

The head of the mutant was cracked, and the stuff inside his brain started to ooze, but that did not stop its movement. It even tried to retaliate when it was on the ground.

"Is this its final struggle?" Feng Bujue’s face was covered with blood, but he did not look nervous at all. He moved several steps back and told Xiao Tan, "Get away from it. It should die after a little more struggling."

The mutant had lost its mental faculty and destroyed everything around it aimlessly. It shattered the chairs and cement floor around it easily. It was unable to move because one of its tendons had been severed, so it was no threat to Wang Tanzhi and Feng Bujue, who stood away from it.

"We’re done here! What about you?" Feng Bujue looked down toward the area where the sound of fighting came from. Then, he flashed his light there. He saw Pan Feng and Hwa Xiong surrounding the Anomaly, and the latter used her iron claws to fend them off. Even though it was an unfair fight, she did not look cornered.

Feng Bujue cursed in his heart.

"This is a Level three Anomaly, isn’t it?" Feng Bujue shouted.

"Why did you even ask if you already know the answer?" Hwa Xiong replied with displeasure.

The two GMs looked pressed. When Hwa Xiong jumped down earlier to deal with this Anomaly, he had soon realized that something was wrong. The arm that was blown off by Feng Bujue was quickly regenerated, and it grew a claw. The wounds on her body healed at an impossible speed as well. That combined with her impressive close-quarter combat ability proved that she was beyond the power level of a level four Anomaly. When Pan Feng joined the battle, Hwa Xiong finally had the time to scan the GM’s menu and realized that the opponent was indeed a level three Anomaly.

Feng Bujue also noticed the healed arm, and he yelled from the audience’s seat, "Cut off her head! When do you expect this fight to end if you continue to fight like this?"

"Do you think I don’t want to do that? How about you come and try it yourself?" Pan Feng roared.

This was not their fault. Even though the Anomaly appeared slight, she was no weaker than Ashford’s Mutant, and her speed and reactions were as fast as the two GMs. Her weapon was an extension of her arms, and it was more suitable for close combat than the spear-like weapons used by the two GMs. Plus, the self-regeneration gave her plenty of leeway, like she could ignore all small wounds inflicted on her body.

If this battle drew out, even if the GMs did not lose, their Stamina Points would be exhausted, but before that, there was another hidden threat to deal with...

"Current quest completed. All main quest completed. You have completed the scenario, auto-teleportation in 180 seconds."

When the system announced that, it meant that the struggle of the mutant was over, and it stopped moving completely. It also meant that Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi could only stay for another three minutes in the scenario.

At the same time, at the entrance, pairs of ruby eyes appeared from the darkness. Following the howling of the BW Zombies, it announced the arrival of the hoard.
