Chapter 158: Instinct and Rationality
“Be careful, don’t die.”
After saying that, Flanders lowered his head as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
And the strange creature mother was not the least bit careless towards Flanders in his current state.
Although she could not quite understand what Flanders had said, her rationality and her strange instincts were telling her that the scarecrow in front of her was extremely dangerous.
And this feeling of danger was becoming more and more obvious.
The arm on the ground flew back under the control of the strange mother. Relying on the strange special constitution, it was reattached in an instant.
At the same time, the big hole in her abdomen instantly returned to its original state.
Actually, the arm could also be restored through regeneration, but by reattaching it, it could reduce its own consumption.
Right now, due to Flanders’s previous attacks, the strange creature mother’s had expended quite a lot of energy, and she was already feeling a little tired.
Although it was not much, it was enough to show that the intensity of the current battle was already beginning to make the strange mother uncomfortable.
If time continued like this, the strange creature mother might experience a situation where her battle strength would be reduced due to excessive consumption.
Under the vigilant gaze of the strange creature mother, Flanders suddenly swung his left hand and threw the soul-devouring scythe at the strange mother like a dart.
Night Cut.
This was based on the wild boar butcher’s previous attack and Flanders’s inspiration.
Looking at the rapidly spinning soul-devouring scythe in the air, Flanders let out an intense air-piercing sound as it rapidly approached the strange mother.
Pitch-black energy flickered like a black disc.
The strange creature mother did not dare to be negligent. This time, she had learned her lesson and did not go head-on. Instead, she sidestepped and dodged the scythe’s attacks.

However, before she could heave a sigh of relief in order to successfully dodge, Flanders had already grabbed Apophis with both hands and approached the strange creature mother. He quickly approached the strange creature mother and arrived in front of her.
At this moment, Flanders’s state was completely based on instinct. There was no existence known as ‘reason’ in his current state.
Instinct followed Flanders’s own battle memories and the skills he had mastered, constantly changing and attacking.
Under the control of ‘instinct’, Flanders’attacks were violent and wild. It seemed like there was no pattern, but every attack was the fiercest and most direct, and also the best way to deal with the situation.
Due to his ‘instinct’, the control of Sword Apophis was once again handed over to Flanders.
Different from the green energy that Sword Apophis released when he was in control, when Flanders was in control, the energy that appeared on the surface of Sword Apophis’s body was dark green in color.
As the energy was poured in, the dark green energy began to extend continuously with Sword Apophis as the basis.
By doing so, it could effectively increase its attack range, allowing it to reach the enemy in the distance.
Hum– Hum–
A faint sound was heard at this moment, and the source of the sound was the Sword Apophis in Flanders’hand.
The strange creature mother looked over when she heard the sound. Her heart was in shock, and the alarm bell in her head kept ringing, reminding her of ‘Danger! Danger!’.
The energy covering the surface of Apophis’s body produced a slight but high-frequency vibration.
If one were to look closely at the energy rotating in the distance, one would find that the energy was mimicking a chainsaw, increasing its cutting power and increasing its destructive power.
If one was struck by such an attack, one could very well die on the spot if one was not careful.

At this moment, the strange creature mother did not dare to hold back. She released a large amount of spiritual power along with the energy in her body and gathered it in front of her, forming layers of barriers.
In her haste, she knew that the barrier she created was not very strong.
Therefore, she changed her train of thought. Since one layer of barrier was not strong enough, what about another layer? If this number was multiplied by 10, what would happen?
Thus, this scene appeared.
Facing this layer of barrier, the Sword Apophis in Flanders’s hand was like the knife that cut through the layer of cake. There was no sense of obstruction, and it naturally split the layers of overlapping barriers in front of him into two.
The strange mother was not surprised by this result. These barriers were only created to buy her some time so that she could dodge the attack.
The Crow Storm continued. The strange creature mother could not care less about the crows anymore. With the crows pecking at her, the strange creature mother quickly distanced herself from Flanders.
However, Flanders used his actions to tell the strange creature mother that distance was useless.
He did not continue to chase after her. Instead, he flung his hands and the energy that was originally attached to Sword Apophis turned into light wheels that flew towards the strange creature mother.
These light wheels were like darts that shot towards the strange creature mother.
At this moment, the strange creature mother wished that she could strangle the wild boar butcher that was lying on the ground to death.
This was because whether it was the scythe that flew out earlier, the chainsaw earlier, or the light wheels now, the source of inspiration was obvious at a glance. The strange mother could tell at a glance that she was inspired by the wild boar butcher’s final strike.
If the wild boar butcher woke up at this time and saw the suppressed strange mother, it would definitely be very happy. It would think that it could do it again, and then it would not hesitate to imitate Flanders in dealing with the strange creature mother.
Then, it would fantasize about returning to the days of the past where it would order its wife around and do whatever it wanted.
After throwing out the light wheel, the straw on Flanders’s body began to grow. This white straw was now covered in black energy, and under Flanders’s control, it quickly stabbed towards the strange creature mother.
Seeing this scene, the strange creature mother’s nose immediately became crooked from anger. She thought that Flanders was mimicking the wild boar butcher again, but in reality, this was something that Flanders’s ‘instinct’ had learned through Flanders’s battle memories with the blood-red princess, it was learned through simulation.
Flanders had subdued the long hair strange creature ‘Black’, so he had a certain degree of control over the hair on his body.
As for what the hair on a scarecrow was, it was naturally the straw on the scarecrow’s body.
Thus, Flanders controlled the straw and stabbed the strange creature mother.
It had to be said that this set of attacks from Flanders was a true restraint on the strange creature mother.
The thrust of the straw focused on piercing energy. By concentrating the energy a little, it could break through the defense and pierce through the enemy.
As for the scythe, energy saw, and light wheel, they focused on cutting and strengthening the cutting ability to cut through the enemy’s defense and hurt the enemy behind the defenses.
In both cases, one had to break through the defense, while the other had to pierce through it. This was quite a restraint for the strange creature mother, whose physical strength was limited and whose defense relied entirely on the barrier.
