Chapter 716 A different way to fight
Once again, Austin found himself in a situation where he was going up against the shadow fighter. He started to think back to his first few exchanges he had with the said person. Being an Altered, it meant that Austin was naturally faster and more powerful than he usually would have been.
His Altered form wasn’t based on speed or anything, but he still would have somewhat of a natural boost just for being an Altered, yet he was still unable to hit the shadow fighter. This was all due to them being nimble, slippery, agile and flexible at the same time.
‘I doubt this person is an Altered, otherwise they wouldn't have reacted the way they had when they were going up against that Vixen guy that protected the Scavenger’s daughters, and I can tell whenever they talk about the other Altered they have slight fear in their voice.
‘If I was to come up against someone like this, who was an Altered that enhanced these traits in a person, then I would lose. I need to figure out a way on how to beat this person.’ Reêad latest novels at novelhall.come on, are you really just going to stand there and wait for me to make the first move?” The shadow fighter said, with their hand out gesturing for the other to come at them.
Taking on this challenge and being the only Altered in the fight, he thought it was only fair. He charged forward from his position using the explosive powers in his legs. From the reaction, he could tell that even the shadow fighter hadn’t expected the big guy to be so fast.
‘He’s fast and this strong? I saw what he did to Vixen. If I get hit by this guy, even once, then this fight is over. I might even die!’ The shadow fighter leaned backward, so much that their back was nearly making a ninety degree angle and avoided the punch completely.
While close to the ground, using their hands they flipped back and used their feet to kick Austin right in the chin, and eventually came up right. They could see that the kick to the chin did little to affect Austin as he continued to charge forward swinging his fists.
The shadow fighter avoided both swings and then when a third swing came, went in and matched a punch hitting Austin right in the face. His weight and his own speed was being used against him, but it wasn’t enough to knock him down.
Going for a grab, the shadow fighter was able to duck underneath his arm and create distance between the two again.
‘My fist is throbbing from that punch, is his face made of a rock or something?’ The shadow fighter thought, holding onto their wrist. ‘If my punches are doing nothing, then I need to figure out another way to beat him.’
Austin didn’t go charge in to attack again because so far he was the only one that had been hit. He needed to think about his next attack rather than just hoping for a lucky hit.
The double doors slammed open, Vixen had entered, walking through the restaurant while dragging a particular person in his hand. When he was close enough, he threw the said person who tumbled across the floor.
On the ground, Vlad slowly lifted his head, to look at the bald headed man, his face was already beaten by Vixen a little.
“As I informed you over the phone, there was a recent disturbance in one of our underground fights.” Vixen said. “This one, is one of the students that had arrived with him. I brought him as requested, Sir Nox.”
Nox, the leader of the Scavengers, was staring down at the student on the ground that was next to him. Before Vlad could even say cheek to grind against the inside of his tooth.
“A person that even managed to escape you Vixen, I find that hard anything, he lifted his foot and slammed it on his face, forcing his cheek to grind against the inside of his tooth.
“A person that even managed to escape you Vixen, I find that hard to believe, and why would someone that strong associate themselves with a student of all things.” Nox continued to twist his foot, while Vlad grunted and moaned in pain.
“Oh well, we will be sure to get the answers we are looking for from this one, and while we're at it, let's send out a clear message to everyone so this never happens again.”
