Talent Awakening: I, the Weakest Awakened, Start with Dragonfire Spell

Chapter 37 Chapter37-Bloodfiend Larva

The purple light swallowed Howard and the others in an instant.

When they regained their bearings, they found themselves enveloped in a world of eerie mist.

Fortunately, they had not been separated.

At that moment, the members of the elite team had dispersed, leaving only a girl collapsed on the ground.

Her face was ashen, and a large hole was torn open in her stomach, from which blood flowed unrestrainedly.

The thick and pungent smell of blood immediately horrified Howard and the others.

"How did she die?"

"Damn it, she was in the midst of our group just now. There were no monsters around; why did she suddenly scream and fall to the ground, and her stomach is…"

Glyn couldn't bring himself to continue, with a flicker of anger flashing in his eyes.

Regardless of how he would explain this upon their return, the camaraderie built over these two days made it hard for him to accept anyone's death!

"It seems... that the purple mist came out from Angelina's stomach."

"Huh?"

"What do you mean by that?"

With one of the students speaking up, all eyes turned to him.

"I...I don't know!"

The student shook his head, too frightened to speak clearly.

Indeed, they were young people who had just started out, inexperienced in facing such bloody scenes.

Howard quietly approached Abby.

He had understood that it was the extraplanar creature lurking in the shadows that had made its move.

"Everyone gather together! I refuse to believe that thing hiding in the darkness can still hurt us if we stick together." After a moment of hesitation, Glyn beckoned everyone to gather together.

At this time, Caitlin did not argue with Glyn; instead, she instructed her servants to follow Glyn's orders.

"Everyone, back to back, move forward slowly." Glyn was encouraging everyone, cheering them on while leading the group forward slowly. "We are very close to the exit; as long as we can get out, it will be easy."

"Ah!"

However, they had hardly taken a few steps when another piercing scream rang out.

Everyone turned back to see a male student's stomach swelling massively as if he were pregnant, before suddenly bursting open like an exploding watermelon, scattering blood everywhere.

He fell backward onto the ground.

The horrifying scene immediately brought grave expressions to Howard and the others' faces.

Some of the female students felt their stomachs churn, unable to hold back their vomit.

"Damn it!"

"What the hell is going on?"

"How did the extraplanar creature manage to do this?!"

"Fuck!"

Exclamations of anger and shock resounded incessantly.

Even the battle-hardened servants were unbearably tense at this moment, their eyes blinking rapidly as they scanned their surroundings vigilantly.

"That thing is definitely hiding in the purple mist! Anyone with AOE skills, release them all, bombard it!" Glyn gritted his teeth, raising both hands and levitating in mid-air.

Lightning flickered, converging from all directions, swirling around Glyn.

The next moment, countless lightning bolts transformed into long spears, hurled one after another by Glyn.

They penetrated into the purple mist before explosively bursting apart.

Seeing this, Caitlin and many servants also joined in, unleashing their skills like there was no tomorrow.

However, despite their skills engulfing the vicinity, there was no discernible effect.

Howard, while controlling the firedragon to dance in the air, carefully observed every surviving individual, not letting any detail, not even their gazes, escape his scrutiny.

Upon this scrutiny, Howard indeed noticed something amiss.

The student Felix's gaze was particularly dull.

Although he was still releasing skills, his entire demeanor seemed controlled by something, his actions lagging a beat compared to others.

Furthermore, a faint purple hue lurked deep within his pupils.

In an instant, Howard understood.

The extraplanar creature possessed the ability to inhabit bodies!

"Everyone, stay away from Felix, he's been possessed by the extraplanar creature!"

Realizing this, without any hesitation, Howard shouted out loud.

He quickly retreated, pulling Abby's hand to distance themselves from Felix.

Given the creature's previous acts of rapid killings and possessions, it was clear that it could possess bodies extremely quickly.

Therefore, for safety, they had to keep their distance from him.

However, Abby was momentarily stunned as Howard suddenly grabbed her hand, fixing him with a surprised gaze right after.

Regrettably, Howard was too focused on Felix to notice her reaction.

"What?"

"Felix has been possessed by the extraplanar creature?"

"Holy shit!"

"Fuck!"

Outcries of shock erupted continuously, with many students swiftly moving away from Felix.

Glyn, Caitlin, and others quickly circled around Felix, watching him nervously with heightened alertness.

It took two seconds before Felix raised his head, his face filled with confusion.

However, just as people were doubting whether Howard had made a mistake, a sardonic smile cracked Felix's face wide open.

A harsh and terrifying voice echoed in everyone's ears.

"Heh heh heh heh, I didn't expect someone to find out so quickly!"

"It seems there are clever people among you, I especially enjoy feasting on the flesh and blood of the clever."

"Today, I can have a great feast!"

With the voice trailing off, Felix's stomach began to swell rapidly, similar to the previous individuals.

Shortly after, he exploded like a burst balloon, blood splattering everywhere, and entrails spreading across the ground.

Despite having witnessed this gruesome scene twice before, everyone still found it extremely distressing to see it happen again.

At this moment, they clearly saw that the so-called extraplanar creature was actually a blood-red firefly!

"It's a Bloodfiend Larva!"

"My God, how did a Bloodfiend Larva appear here?"

The faces of Caitlin and Glyn changed drastically.

They had only seen this kind of creature in books.

It was said that the Bloodfiend Larva only appeared in high-level areas; how could it appear here?

"Heh heh heh heh, I am not any Bloodfiend Larva, the great Smordo Clan will never be associated with such an insectile name!"

"I will use your blood to atone for your impudence!"

Despite its small size, the Bloodfiend Larva's voice roared, continuously reverberating in people's ears as it fluttered its wings, charging towards Howard and the group.

At this instant, everyone began to panic, including Glyn and Caitlin, who were retreating non-stop, unsure how to deal with such a small yet highly elusive creature.

Howard's face turned serious as he quickly checked the attributes of the Bloodfiend Larva.

He was not someone who would just sit idly waiting for death!

"Hmm?!"

"How can its HP be so low?!"

Upon seeing the attribute panel, Howard couldn't help but brighten his eyes.

Initially, he was somewhat nervous given the eerie nature of the Bloodfiend Larva.

However, realizing that its HP was remarkably low, Howard instantly formed a plan in his mind.

Due to the digitization of real-world data, the attributes of a creature were not wholly determined by its level and rank but also depended on its inherent characteristics.

This race, the Bloodfiend Larva, operated on the principle of high attack power but low HP!

As he saw the Bloodfiend Larva rapidly approaching, Howard's eyes sharpened, and he boldly stepped forward.

Not far away, Caitlin, who was just about to flee, froze in her tracks at this sight.

Soon after, gritting her teeth, she no longer retreated but instead turned around to stand beside Howard, attempting to drag him away.

"Are you insane?"

"Even a level 100 awakened might die at the hands of a Bloodfiend Larva; we are not its match!"

Caitlin's sudden appearance surprised Howard quite a bit.

After all, it was their first meeting, and despite her affectionate address, he hadn't taken her seriously.

He was no stranger to situations where wealthy young ladies would take good-looking men as their consorts.

Yet, surprisingly, Caitlin dared to rescue him amidst this crisis.

Although, Howard didn't need saving at all!

With a slight curve in the corners of his mouth, Howard spoke softly, "I have said before, you all handle the creatures from the Ruins; I am responsible for the extraplanar creatures. How can I retreat at this moment?"

Despite the emergency, Howard spoke, not believing that the group would still have the mind to listen to him at this juncture.

As his words fell, Caitlin momentarily froze, her gaze fixed on Howard's retreating figure, which now seemed as grand as a mountain in her eyes.

The others also stood stunned, their hearts filled with astonishment as their eyes converged on Howard.

"Heh heh heh heh!"

"Someone still wishes to offer themselves to death at this point; let me taste the flavor of your blood then!"

The Bloodfiend Larva shrieked, surprisingly abandoning its initial target and charging towards Howard instead.

However, before the Bloodfiend Larva could get close, an astonishing force suddenly erupted beside Howard, even the ground under everyone's feet began to shake wildly!
