Chapter 739: Returning from the dead
The three men standing in front of Jayden looked at Jayden strangely. He still had time to look relaxed and look away while all three of them had surrounded him. Either he was way too confident or just stupid, they thought.
“Do the three of you want to betray Malgor? I can spare your lives if you just—” Jayden spoke in a casual tone, but he was interrupted by the second man.
“Heh, is that a tactic of yours to intimidate us so that we can give up fighting, and you wouldn’t be killed?” The second man said, while the other two laughed. Out of the three, only the first one was human while the other two were beasts.
“Suit yourself then,” Jayden said as he created the dream domain around them. In the next moment, all four of them were present over a big desert with only sand in view as far as they could see.
The three men looked around cautiously, wondering what kind of traps Jayden had set. They moved away from him and readied themselves to attack at just a moment’s notice.
“Don’t worry, I have just changed the location so let’s get this over with. I still have a few other things to do,” Jayden said. Even though he looked relaxed, he was still being careful.
No matter how much one’s strength had grown, it’s always better to be careful in front of an unknown enemy.
“When fighting against opponents like them, the first thing we should do is kill the healer, and at the same time observe their abilities,” Anna spoke. Without replying, Jayden just waited for the others to make the move.
The three men glanced at one another and, nodding, they turned their faces towards Jayden and sucked in a long breath.
Then, at the same time, all three of them shot out some kind of green smoke out of their mouths towards the place where Jayden was standing.
This smoke was both poisonous and acidic, enough to burn through most people’s defenses. Then, without giving Jayden any time to come out of there, the three of them made a big net made of fluid like that of a spider’s out of their hands.
And to keep Jayden there, they threw the net towards him. Even after that, they didn’t stop and kept shooting poisonous darts into the smoke.
“Hmm, so one of them possesses abilities similar to that of a spider’s, not bad,” Jayden mumbled as he watched them attack the smoke from above them. He was wasting time on these things since he wanted to see if any of these beasts had good abilities for Eve.
“The ability to share abilities among themselves and even look the same seems to be the ability of the man. One beast has the abilities of a spider; now let’s see what abilities the second beast has aside from healing,” he thought and decided to fight back.
*BOOOOOOM*
Suddenly, he appeared behind the man and punched his back. Without full strength, still, it was enough to break his backbone, though his body soon healed.
They now looked at Jayden even more cautiously and again nodded towards one another, after which the bodies of all three of them began to change. Jayden just watched as he soon found himself surrounded by three large spiders.
“I was right,” he mumbled. Each of the spiders had twelve long legs that had pointed ends, and most of them were launched towards Jayden in the next moment from several sides.
“Show me something better.” Saying that, Jayden pulled his hand and threw a punch towards the beast which actually had the ability of a spider.
*BOOOOOOOM*
Before his hand could even come in contact with the spider’s legs, the air pressure released by his hand hit one of the spiders, throwing it several hundred meters away.
While the legs of the remaining two spiders landed on his body, neither were they able to pierce his skin nor were they able to make his body move even a little.
*CRIEEK*
The spider which was thrown away released a loud scream. There was a big wound on its body, but even such a big wound began to heal within a few moments. The healing ability seemed quite like the vampires, so Jayden was more and more tempted to take this ability for Eve.
“Just who are you?” The three of them returned to their human forms and floated close to one another while looking at Jayden with some fear.
“Stop talking, let’s end this.” Raising one hand, Jayden pointed it towards the same beast with spider abilities again, and then he grabbed the air while the face of that man distorted, feeling as if someone was squeezing his throat.
Jayden pulled him closer and caught his head. Now this man was hanging with his head in Jayden’s hand, and no matter how much he tried to free himself, he failed.
“Say goodbye to your friend,” Jayden said. In the next moment, he crushed the head of the man, turning bones, brain, and flesh into minced meat. It was an instant death, but Jayden made the body of the headless corpse float beside himself as if to provoke the others.
“Noooo, we are going to kill you,” they both shouted.
Then their eyes began to glow with a bright white light and a large amount of energy was released out of their bodies, but strangely it was not directed toward Jayden; instead, it was directed towards the headless corpse that was slowly returning to its original spider form.
Jayden just watched them without interfering. This was another power of the beast with healing ability.
Then, under his surprised gaze, the head that had disappeared not too long ago began to form at a visible rate. It was like watching a video in reverse.
Within a couple of minutes, the head had completely formed and looked as good as new, and then something even more amazing happened. The body shivered for a moment, then he began to breathe again; he had just returned from the dead.
“That’s… It’s not the first time I’m seeing someone actually return from the dead like this, but that’s amazing.” Anna’s surprised voice rang in Jayden’s mind, but he was feeling similar surprise over this situation.
“Yes, this is the perfect ability for Eve. I’m not sure if she will be able to use this on others, but even if not, this could give her a second life,” Jayden spoke. He glanced towards the two men. Since they were sharing abilities, both of them had used it to reduce the burden from just one, still they looked quite tired.
Jayden made his body float a little higher, then he stomped on the head of the unconscious beast who had just come back to life, but the other two men used the web and pulled his body back.
“We won’t let you hurt him again, and now it’s your time to die,” the first man spoke. But since the spider was unconscious, for a while it would be 2 vs 1 battle.
