Chapter 109 - The Institute (50)

The creature's hard pincer still dripping with the blood and flesh of its victim came barreling towards him with a deafening boom!

Chu Yi's eyes glinted with a ruthless, excited light but before his sword could reach up and meet the monster flying towards him, his pupils suddenly constricted, feet stagnating.

There was an unprecedented wave of exhaustion and weakness that abruptly flooded over his head him even at this critical juncture!

The holding the knife trembled and fell and even his limbs felt like soft jelly, completely stripping him of the ability to attack, this situation was so sudden that Chu Yi didn't have the time to react, the monster was still barreling towards him.

Seeing the creatures long sharp pincers, Chu Yi's hands began to tremble again as he tried to muster up the strength to dodge but not only could he not move, his breathing also became obstructed as if he had submerged into the dark sea and deprived of all sense of self!

Then suddenly it went wrong.

At a certain moment, Chu Yi felt an unprecedented strike of pain in his heart, like he was being stabbed directly by a sharp chainsaw, spinning at a high speed, that crushed his body into a bloody mash, 

The familiar red lines emerged in dense crisscross against the snow-white skin, the shocking bloody red contrast was like ropes tied around a offering that was being sacrificed to god,

Why now–

The surging strength had completely left his body and he could only watch with blown out pupils as the attack landed onto him!

"Scree––"

He moved,

"Boom–"

Survival instinct kicked in at the edge of life and death, and with a feeble dodge, Chu Yi managed to avoid most of the attacks but his lacking strength still resulted in the monsters attack slicing into the flesh of his side, crimson red trails spewing from the wound.

Chu Yi's mind went blank, soft white fingers slowly raised to clutch his shoulders, scarlet blood spilled from between his fingers and landed on the floor in wet drips, the charming color staining the snow-white hand like warm blood on a blanket of pure snow.

During the first few seconds of the incident, Chu Yi felt almost unconscious, time seemed to slow to a standstill, 

It wasn't until he infinitely heard the dripping sound of water droplets hitting the cold floor, the extreme pain spreading all over his body, that only continued to grow stronger and harsher in intensity.

The cold light slanted on Chu Yi's face like a veil, illuminating one half of his face, his forehead, the bridge of his nose, his fluttering eyelashes, the corners of his frivolous mouth and his sharp jawline. And every inch of the other half was immersed in unfathomable darkness.

The monster didn't care for his silence and as if it had been set off into a new frenzy by the blood that stained its claws, the monster suddenly launched a storm of attacks against Chu Yi!

Boom–Boom–Boom–

The floor beneath him cracked from the force!

He dragged his weak body to dodge frantically!

Pincers and tail slamming against the wall seeing it rumbling and creaking, it completely ignored the other chaotic players and completely focused on Chu Yi.

He cut an embarrassing figure under the might of the mutant, blood continued to spill as the monster's tore into his weakened body, no matter here he dodged it was as if he was a helpless mouse being toyed with at the mercy of the mutant.

Mu Fang who had always been paying attention the Chu Yi's was somewhat startled by the man drenched in his own blood struggling to survive under the relentless attacks, his mind churned quickly and suddenly he shot a knife formation towards the open back of the monster, 

The low grade prop however provided no use but to leave a shallow white mark against the thick skin of the mutant, Mu Fang's gaze was dignified and with a loud shout, he continued to try to divert the monsters attention.

Such bravery in even such an incomprehensible situation, still attracted the admiring eyes of a few players, the scale in their hearts tilting more towards Mu Fang's side.

Chu Yi who had never been so embarrassed in his life suddenly laughed hoarsely, he could still feel the tingling pain from weakness and overwhelming exhaustion, but the voice he used to speak was still haunting like a ghost.

"Why don't we play a game–."

His chest was torn open and blood spilled like an open faucet, the translucent white ribs were visible under the squirming and undulating flesh. This was completely different from the previous fights. He could clearly feel every trace of it pain, wrecking havoc in his nerves, shooting up his spine and combining with the sharp shoots of agony that hammered his skull.

Seeing Chu Yi's abnormal expression, the watching Mu Fang was still puzzled for a while, until he opened his mouth, red lips torn into bloody cracks but still stretched into a fanatic grin, "To see which one of us dies first."

The monster seemed to understand Chu Yi's taunts and it stopped its mindless attacks and slowly approached him, Chu Yi's right hand fell from his shoulder , blood traveling in scarlet trails down his fingertips, his left hand was useless but his right hand slowly clenched around the blade as he watched playfully as the torrential creature approached.

Even the air seemed to be shattered, before it even approached Chu Yi could feel the bloody breath slamming down aagainst him!

It was getting closer and closer, 

There was no turning back now!–

But this stalemate only lasted for a few seconds.

Chu Yi who still seemed to be immersed in pain, was unexpectedly the first to launch a sneaked attack!

In face of such a oppressive situation, Chu Yi's body only slightly paused and then his right foot stomped on the ground, strong explosive force pushed him forward to leap, his front leg quickly went across the room, bringing his body forward as he lunged at the creature!

Time seemed to slow–

His legs made a beautiful leap from the floor and with an explosive twist of his waist, his foot slammed into the skull of the monster with a resounding slam!

"Boom!––"

The creature's head was completely thrown to the side, it's skull sinking in!

"Scree!!"

He wasn't done yet, his body spun in a arc and using the inertia of the spin, Chu Yi actually brought the long knife over with his backhand and slashed hard on the exposed neck of the creature! Blood splashed, the pain and trashing movement made the monster screech shrillly, sudddnly it lifted it pincers and smashed towards him, slamming his body away with its claws–

Chu Yi staggered as landed on two feet, blood spurting from his lips, the previous attack completely draining away his remaining energy, the feeling of sharp pain in his limbs only grew stronger, it was to the point just standing made him feel as if thousands of tiny ants were drilling into body and piercing into his flesh like a blood sieve,

"Screee––"

The monster's neck wound wasn't fatal, Chu Yi did not have the strength to lodge the knife any deeper, so with newfound anger, it charged towards them like an angry bulk and Chu Yi was once again pushed to the end, leaping and dodging sideways, as the monsters claws came slashing above his head!

The onslaught of pain made Chu Yi's body sluggish, forcing him to back up again and again, unable to breathe and his dodges only grew more and more sloppy and struggled. He didn't understand why, the alienation had started now but the previous wound was oozing blood more and more and the effects of bloodless was slowly starting to appear in his stiff limbs and fingers,

He was gradually losing!

Enduring the severe pain as if his heart was being peeled off, Chu Yi tried to block, but one hand was completely useless at this point and the other was unable to keep up with the speed of attacks, his gaze estimated the surroundings, Chu Yi who did not look back guessed that he was about to be forced into the vicinity of the rampaging parasite monster's,

Once he was really pushed back, he really had no leeway.

What was taking Tang Shun so long,

The scorpion seemed to sense his slowly falling strength and its attack suddenly heightened to a new frenzy, with a loud wail, a sonorous around attack was released and Chu Yi felt his eardrums rattle, caught off guard he was unexpectedly stumbled by the scorpions tail, the sharp barbs lodged into his flesh and ripped a bloody chunk out of his only remaining arm!

Chu Yi's face distorted, his blood splattered on the floor in a crimson stream that drove the monster crazy! 

"Boom–"

Staggering, Chu Yi actually fell, his feet unable to hold on anymore. The fall caused his entire body to slam against the hard floor, his eardrums felt shattered, and Chu Yi's heart ached with a tearing pain again.

His body was completely wet with sweat and blood!

He wanted to quickly get up nut this intention was discovered the scorpion at the same time, it reached out with its pincer and clamped around his neck heavily, lifting him up! Chu Yi's body swayed helplessly and with a ruthless pull, he was brought to the mouth of the creature!

"Scree–"

His neck was suffocated painfully, Chu Yi red eyes constricted to the limit! 

It wanted to devour him alive!

But he couldn't resist! 

The monster looked at the tantalizing prey greedily, it could smell a special scent radiating from it that made its blood clamor and boil, the saliva in its mouth fell to the floor in long, sticky globs, a nauseating rancid smell wafting from the wide open jaws, Chu Yi who glanced at thorough a bloodu haze, could still see the bits and pieces of blood and flesh stuck in the sharp razor teeth.

The monster hung the prey above its head and Mu Fang who was watching, finally turned away, his group of players warding off the parasitic players with him as the core "It's no use now....he's dead."

His face seemed to look unbearable and sad and the clenched fist at his side, really made people unable to help but sympathize.

Unfortunately, they would never be able to face that chance because from behind them a bloody screech suddenly sounded!

They raised their heads, in their incredulous stare, they realized that the man hanging above the monsters mouth was gone!

Mu Fang raised his head and to his surprise he saw that the previously helpless man was just one step away from them.

The other party's eyebrows were half lowered, and the fluttering hair slightly covered his cheeks, blood still coating his figure in an embarassing red, his shoulders seemed to tremble, head drooping like a broken doll..

He actually heard a low sobbing, and to his absolute shock he saw the corners of the man's eyes turn red from tears, the green and blue blood vessels under the skin swam delicately and the swan like neck seemed like the carefully nurtured stamen of a peony.

Why is he crying...

In the face of such a beautiful man, one couldn't help but want to wipe his tears and hold him carefully in the palm of his hand, 

Chu Yi's tears fell beautifully, the transparent teardrops slid down to the high nose and mixing with the scarlet blood stains that painted his face, pale lips and jawline, everything was just right, even the frowning brows had a delicate sense of fragility.

"Okay... it hurts." His voice was dull, he slowly raised the back of his uninjured left hand, and wiped the tears from his cheeks. He could feel the strength flooding back into his veins, the hapless sense of weakness replaced by exponential strength,

"Very painful."

It's just two words, but his tone seemed to have completely changed.

In an instant, the darkness around him seemed to billow like countless dark clouds, gloomy, cold and oppressive. 

There was a crazy smile like a madman on that demonic and beautiful face.

"So painful it makes me want to kill."

Chu Yi laughed uproariously, unable to stop, his scattered hair, half covered his redeyes, this laugh was almost like not laughing, but resembled the sound of fingernails scratching on a board, jarring and sending goosebumps tingling up their spines.

He was still completely drenched in blood, his own blood but no one seemed to be able to pay attention that now.

"I'm sorry, I just seem to be like this when I'm really, really excited." His grin widened strangely as he stared at the scorpion, eyes narrowing into dark slits as blood drained from the scarlet lips torn by the wide laughter.

Then his laugh was stopped for a moment, and he wiped away the remaining tears from the corner of his eyes with the index finger of his hand still stained with blood."

His smile still remained as he took a deep breath of the sweet air, spit it out, and blew away the hair in front of his eyes, "Maybe I'm sick."

The face is no longer embarrassed and helpless, but is now full of oppressive danger. The corners of his mouth twitched, Chu Yi's slanted narrow eyes curved into a crescent moon, he looked pointedly at the pacing monster, "Then come! Let's see who dies"

His foot exploded off the floor, the walls trembled as he leaped into the air, the monster's raised its two bloody pincers to greet him!

Boom–

Scree––

Cracks shattered.

Snapped--

Blood and putrid brains exploded into a scarlet blood mist!
