Chapter 776 Saving Everyone
The flaming dart thrown by Stunker did something strange the moment it hit Austin. The fire burned brightly and started to spiral around as if it were being controlled, and when it did, the darts were going deeper into Austin's chest.
Because of this, the darts were almost ripping apart his flesh, and blood was flowing out rather quickly from his body, causing large alarm bells to go off in Vere's head.
"AUSTIN!" she screamed.
She tried to run to his side, but as she did, a hot claw came right at her face. She managed to pull back in time and lift her leg, her foot having transformed into a hoof. It whacked the man right on the chin, sending him back, but he managed to catch himself.
Even with the strong hits and timing that Vere was able to pull off, these Altered were stronger than your average ones, and they should be, since they had come from a tier one city of all places.
"ARGHHH!" A loud roar came from Austin's mouth, and as he puffed his nose, his muscles expanded. When they grew in size, the flaming darts that had entered his body shot out, falling into the water.
Now in his body, the large wounds could be seen, and as the water continued to drain completely to the ground, he could see the darts on the ground. They didn't look like normal darts, as there was a rotor in them.
"Ah, you're still alive. Now that really is surprising," Stunker said, looking at him. "These things are made with the latest Anti-Altered technology. Even with a simple throw, they would pierce right through a body.
"Then if you add my Altered strength and my abilities to it, that should have definitely gone right through even a big guy like you!"
What Stunker was saying was correct, but he had no idea just how strong Austin was, nor what type of Altered he was, but either way, he was still unfazed by the whole thing. In his mind, the task had just become a little more difficult compared to before.
"Alright, I wanted to take down the most troublesome one first, but if I can't do that, then I'll just have to take out the rest one by one."
Stunker looked around the room, and as he did, his eyes were set on Vere. She was moving agilely and packed quite a punch with her hits and kicks, but with her body, he was sure that this could work.
At the right time, Stunker threw the dart from below, and the flame activated, swirling around it and heading straight for her.
"No!"
Austin moved. As he jumped in the way, he stretched out his arm, and the dart pierced right through his skin, more so than before. When it reached it, it started to spin, and the flames ignited, causing a searing pain to be felt over his body.
Since he had stopped the dart but it was still moving, he moved his hand, and then the dart spun until it completely went through his skin and fell onto the floor. Now there was a small hole right through Austin's arm.
"Austin! You need help, we need to get you out of here!" Vere shouted.
She now wasn't avoiding hits as carefully as she was before. Instead, she would take small scratches against her skin in order to hit the attackers.
However, Stunker didn't stop there. As he continued to throw out the darts again, and as he did, they went towards Vlad this time. He rushed to where the dart was heading, and with his open palm, Austin had caught the dart.
He could feel the rotor spinning, trying to get through his hand. It had pierced the skin, but with his strength, he had decided to crush the dart completely, pushing the dart through his skin.
"You! Attacking from the back like that, do you have no shame!" Austin said, as he decided to charge forward. His hand was bloody from the last attack, and there were two men in his way, but this was perfect for him.
Austin reached in and ignored their slicing hands as they stabbed him in the body. He picked the two up and threw them right at where Stunker was.
Each body, Stunker was able to avoid as he moved on the counter top, but right behind them was none other than Austin. He crashed into the counter, shaking the whole place, leaving Stunker unstable.
"Crap, how did he get here so fast, and how were those Altered not even able to stop him?" Stunker thought, but he had even bigger problems to worry about.
He held five darts between his fingers, and all of them activated as Austin was right below him.
Before he could throw them though, Austin had grabbed his legs, pulling them out from underneath him. Stunker fell onto the counter at that moment. Then, with his legs, Austin lifted him in the air, and turned his body around, aiming it right toward the floor.
"F*cking die!" Austin screamed as he swung down with all of his force.
In a desperate attempt, Stunker threw all five of the darts he had left, each of them hitting Austin. But it didn't stop him as the body crashed into the ground and a loud cracking noise was felt all down Stunker's spine. A loud bang sounded in the entire area, like someone had fallen from the tenth floor, and blood poured out of his mouth.
Austin said in a faint voice, "You scum. How could you guys get regular people involved in all of this?"
Austin's eyes were weak, and each of the darts had pierced his chest. Even though Stunker was out, they were still spinning, ripping apart his skin.
The sudden sound of footsteps rushing down the stairs could be heard, and entering the room were several people in black and gold, and one person in particular with a whip in her hand.
She could see Izzy struggling, and throwing out the whip, she had grabbed the Altered, and lifted him up, bringing him towards her. As his body was flung, she transformed her hand, creating fur around it, and slammed it right into the man's face, causing teeth to go flying all over the place.
After finally arriving and saving Izzy who was struggling greatly, "Vere!" Olivia screamed. "Help Austin."
Olivia had just attacked the first person she had seen, so she had yet to fully gauge the situation.
That's when she could see Austin standing in the middle of the room, with several strange objects and fire spiraling around his chest.
He looked at them all, and a weak smile appeared on his face.
"Tell Gary to get rid of these bastards for me."
The rotor continued to spin, and each of them went right through Austin's body. A clanging sound was made as they hit the bar on the other end, and his large body swayed from side to side and collapsed, falling onto the floor, blood pouring from his wounds.
