However, Rhino's tears slowly calmed down as he turned towards Lenny. "I'm going to..."
He paused in surprise. Lenny was gone.
Immediately, his nose twitched, and he turned in a certain direction.
Lenny had gone in that direction.
With a smack on the ground, he jumped into the air for Lenny.
He landed in the audience stand and then rushed for him.
Lenny was not so fast, he had sustained too many injuries all over his body.
And every step he took was a jolt of teeth-clenching pain through his body, but he had to do it.
He had to move.
"System, channel as much poison fluid into my mouth."
<Affirmative>
Rhino head chased closely. "LENNY TALES!"
His scream echoed throughout the arena, hoarse and deep, an expression of blazing anger.
His robust frame burst through the stand, bashing walls as he moved.
Lenny, on the other hand, sank once more into the shadows.
This Assassin move of his was very tasking to the body, but it was also very worth it, as it allowed him his next move.
Rhino head chased after him like a hungry cat with a vendetta for a mouse.
His nose led the way to a dark corner. "Found you!"
He rushed over as he smashed into the wall with his head. Stone and gravel flew about the place, but to his surprise, Lenny was not there.
Suddenly, his nose twitched again, and just behind him, he sensed another dark corner.
Like the one before, he smashed into it, but unfortunately, he did not find what he was searching for.
Lenny was nowhere to be found.
Once more, his nose twitched, except this time around, he could smell Lenny in three different places at a time.
That did not make sense.
*GGRRRRRWWWWLLLLL*
He growled angrily. Everything was not making sense.
Meanwhile, in a corner in the dark, Lenny spat to the ground a black slimy substance.
This was the poison-causing problem in his body.
This was what he had been doing in the shadows.
Every place he went, he would spit this poison from Croc head.
After all, Rhino Head had stated clearly that he could find Lenny using the smell of poison in his body.
Although the poison had quickly increased within his body, this could help him establish the escape that he so desired.
Yes, Lenny's goal was to escape. He tried as much as possible as he hurried for the way out.
<Alert: HP is at a critical low and still dropping.>
<HP 200/6000>
Even with this method of constantly spitting out the poison from his body, it was of no use.
Lenny could see from the black river-like lines running along his body that the poison had sank deep into his blood and, most likely, his bones.
To make matters worse, he still had the injuries that he had gotten from killing Hippo head with that last move.
His body was filled with cuts and tears all over that kept leaking blood.
On some parts, it was just blood, and on others, it was black pus.
The pain was excruciating, as every part of his body screamed for relief.
But the pain and pleasure technique had been activated a long time ago.
Lenny continued his advance towards his goal.
He had to get to the exit.
Unfortunately, there was only one he was aware of, and that was through the Plaza.
Nevertheless, he had to reach it.
<HP170/6000>
Once more, the Satan system alerted him to the impending doom.
He was already in critical organ failure and could feel tremendous pressure on his lungs.
However, he persisted, using the walls as hell to move.
Finally, he made it to the passage that led outside the plaza.
Lenny smiled at this, however, seeing who was waiting for him on the broadway, he frowned.
It was none other than Rhino head.
"You nearly got me there, spitting poison about the place to confuse my nose. However, all I had to do was follow the smell of poison that was not stationary. And then it hit me in the head. You are trying to escape.
Unfortunately for you, this plaza only has one exit, and I'm occupying it."
Lenny frowned tightly.
However, he suddenly pushed himself off the wall.
<HP 100/6000>
The system reminded him once more of the impending problem that was his doom.
Lenny looked at the large passageway with Rhino head in the middle.
He was tired and hurting all over, but then again, he had been in a life-or-death situation many times.
By now, it was practically like his bread and butter.
"System, can I activate strength and stamina abilities one more time?"
<Calculating...>
<Affirmative: however, the host risks death at a calculated 90% in relation to the falling HP caused by continuous organ failure and loss of blood>
"Hmmm! So you are saying that there is a ten percent chance I'll make it, huh!?" He chuckled to himself.
<!!!>
The system wanted to reply but was lost for words.
"Good! That's very good!"
Instantly, Lenny squatted in a dog-like position, like he was about to start a race.
Only this movement made his bones crack some more.
But he still took form as he saw fit.
With his eyes on the mutated human before him, he looked like a cheetah ready to sprint.
Just behind Rhino head was his goal.
Rhino head saw this move of Lenny's and was surprised by it.
"So you still have some fight in you. Not bad! Let's end this once and for all, man to man."
He too took a stand for a charge. "Once I eat you, I too will be able to become a great demon-level existence."
Rhino head kicked his foot against the ground like a bull for the charge. He was going to ram Lenny with his incredible head.
For a few seconds, neither of them moved.
And then it happened. As if a loud whistle had been blown for the start of one person's end...
