Once Human, Now A Parasite Chapter 280
Advertisement
The might of the golden palm wasn't something the thunder hand could resist, it got repeatedly pushed until it vanished into the dark void way below the clouds. Feeling the presence of the tribulations no more, Arthur glanced at the two Divine Beast and the tough-looking blue shield they created in front of them.
The thunderous bolts have calmed down after a few seconds and the dark clouds belonging to the tribulations disappeared in the blink of an eye as if they were never here. They left behind an unusually clear sky where there is no presence of the poisonous fog or the gloomy atmosphere that brought with it a hint of desolation and destruction.
The sky was blue with no signs of any clouds, the sun was shining brightly but there was still the bottomless abyss down below with the flames from earlier.
These flames never ceased burning even after some time passed, they stretched from East to West, covering most of the deep crack that separated the already destroyed continent into two broken and scorched lands.
Even if Arthur used powerful Nature Magic with the World Tree helping him, restoring this land to its previous state is beyond impossible. It would even be far-fetched to think they could heal the earth, enough for it to start growing plants again.
The radiation caused by his bullet would last for a very long time, along with the flaming rose's flames and the collateral damage from the fight, which is by no means negligible, caused this place to really be a no man's land.
"Listen up, Arthur, in precisely thirty-two seconds, I'll have to start the counter-measure program."
Arthur knitted his brows in confusion and replied
"Counter-measure program?"
"At this point, it is certain that you'll die in half a day if no intervention was done. I cannot let you die like this but I also cannot save you entirely, the best I can do is mimic the previous chains and lock your body's powers for short period of time, at least until your body adapts on its own."

"How much is a 'short period of time'?"
His question was met with a momentary silence before his copy answered with a serious tone
"The fake chains would, at best, hold for a few days before your body breaks them unconsciously. You've already reached a point of no return but that doesn't mean death is unavoidable. If we can at least prolonge its arrival for some time before we find a suitable solution or a powerful lock."
Arthur waved his hand dismissively as if he doesn't care and said
"Well, thirty-two second it is then."
His figure, which was motionlessly floating in mid-air, vanished as he used godlike speed to charge head-on against the large blue shield materialized by his two foes.
Like shattering glass, the shield broke into pieces just by colliding his body with it, what he saw afterward were two Divine Beasts, one was an Azure Dragon that glared at him angrily and the other was a White Tiger that slashed its golden claws at him, clearly being hostile.
After the tribulation was gone, it seemed these two regained some of their courage. The event of Arthur deflecting the thunder hand was sure unimaginable but for some reason, they didn't show fear when they faced him, at least not like the one they showed when the red thunder appeared.
Arthur met those two incoming golden claws with a straight punch, devoid of any skills or techniques, just pure brute strength mustered in his fist.
The golden claws, which were faint white radiance as they slashed the air and disturbed space, were destroyed on the spot the moment Arthur's fist clashed with them.
His punch was unstoppable as it landed on the body of the tiger, sending it fly like a kite toward the flames down below. A river of blood followed the tiger as it couldn't even resist strength behind that punch, its figure vanished amidst the burning flames, the only thing that could be heard was its painful roar.

"You still can't unleash the full potential of your body, a true shame... fortunately, this is more than enough to finish them."
The copy lamented over Arthur poor fighting abilities, he lacked a lot of experience so this sudden boost in power, albeit good for him, cannot be used properly unless he masters his racial abilities and learns what a true monstrous physique actually is.
The only remaining Divine Beast was the Azure Dragon, which opened its mouth and initiated its 'Dragon Breath' was looked more powerful than the one from earlier.
The same mysterious flame energy was spat from its mouth in large amounts and since Arthur was right next to it, he was instantly exposed to those flames and violent energy.
Unlike his previous experience, he wasn't ravaged by the Dragon Breath, in fact, it didn't even injure his skin as he stood there and looked at gaping mouth of the dragon.
"This one needs to be turned into a meat paste or my anger won't go away."
Arthur didn't forget what happened earlier, when he was almost killed by the Dragon Breath, if not for Makaze, which appeared at the last second, he would have already died.
Dense amounts of Nether Energy gathered above Arthur in a split second, it quickly transformed into a majestic looking bronze platform that was the size of a tennis field.
Loud bell sounds echoed from within the platform as Arthur held it with both his hand, the sight looked a bit comical as he was very small in comparison with the actual platform, however, it wasn't a funny sight when that grand bronze platform was suddenly smashed down at the dragon, which was spitting its unique fire mixed with that annoying violent energy.
Like a hammer smashing an egg, loud bone breaking noises could be heard as the dragon's entire jaw was dislocated. Its head was deformed in a strange way thus resulting in a disturbing sight.
However, it wasn't only the head of the Azure Dragon which was injured by the platform, its chest and neck were heavily injured as a suppressing force crushed the bones and broke the tougher ones.
Blood gushed from the dragon's mouth, it could no longer spit its flames, it merely let out a whimpering noise. Its dark abyss-like eyes glared at Arthur, trying to render him unable to move by attacking his soul but that was futile in such a situation. Arthur's current physique was immune to soul or mental attacks unless it's an absurdly powerful entity that specializes in that field, there's no way he could be injured.
Arthur contemplated this relieving sight before he nodded his head and grabbed the huge bronze platform, hammering it again at the dragon. It was pretty similar to a hammer hitting a nail, trying to make it sink deep into the wood but in this case, with each hit, the dragon body was squashed into a smaller size, with its bones turned into dust, half of its head gone and bent body that no longer resembled a dragon, it was only suffering an agonizing from torture before it perishes.

The Forgotten One
Hey there everbody. This will be my second upload to Roll 20. Unfortunately I wasn't able to continue my previous one due to life and what not but I'm now back and have a some what new idea I've been kicking around for years. We'll see if i head back to my other fiction due to having things calming down. And like always I'm open to constructive critisims. Any way on to the synopsis. The world as we know it is gone. Torn from everyone due to two major things. First and foremost a biologica lweapon that no one wanted to take credit for after it was released and couldn't be stopped (a zombie virus of sorts) and the way that many nations thought to stop it from spreading was to destory everything they could ofcourse that didn't include them selves. So there the world was in a mexican standoff with hundreds of countries with hundreds of nuclear weapons just dareing one another to make the first move. Once again no one knew who started it but it didn't matter once it started the world was doomed. In an attempt to save people some scientists began working on a way to cryogenically frezze people so they could surive the on coming armegedon. The problem was before they could begin testing it on humnas the nukes began launching. In a bid to save them selves a family gave their youngest son to the scientists as a test subject. He had already been infected by the virus weeks before the nukes were being threatened and still retained his humanitiy. After being betrayed by his family after telling them of his ability to stay him self and a few things the bio weapon had changed in him physically he was sedated with enough drugs to kill a whole pride of elephants and forced to take part in the experiment. The last thing he remembers was watching his world close around him (his cryo pod) and his family's face of sadness but also hope in the fact that them betraying him may give them a chance to live. This is a fan fiction in which many aspects of one of my favorite games will be quiet prevelent. It will be obvious to those who have played it but for those who may not the game i'm going to be baseing some of the things in this novel is called Prototype. And no I do not own the rights to the cover. If the creater would like for me to pull it down please messege me.
