Chapter 775 Attack the Howlers
The restaurant had a lot of money put behind it, a lot of thought went into the architectural design. Even the glass was expensive that had been used, meant to even withstand regular Anti-Altered weapons.
This was meant to be Izzy’s first success and everything was going well. Her hard work was paying off and now she was seeing it go up in flames, and soon afterwards being drowned. The wood, the furniture, none of it could be reused now.
But she understood Austin had only done what needed to be done. As the water drenched everything in the room, it started to sink down into drains even lower compared to before.
It was a safety mechanism that had been designed but the water was still going down at a slow rate and was reaching just below most of their knees.
“I want every single one of their heads!” Izzy shouted. Her hair was transforming, stretching out like a frenzy going up against one of the attackers.
It was the man with the flaming tale. He swung his tail creating a wall of fire, stopping the attack in its tracks and jumped back now next to Stunker.
“Sir, it seems there are more Altered than we expected, and they're not exactly weak.” The man stated.
Stunker could see that, even the small movements from the strange haired Altered, it was almost as if she was trained. Not just that but the others, they weren't just regular gang members either.
What was annoying Stunker more was the purpose of the attack, it was meant to be a hit and run. They were to attack the guests and as soon as the Howlers turned up, they were to get out of there.
They would just barge and fight their way though, but why were there so many Altereds in one place?
“Are you hurt!” Austin shouted out as he went by Vere’s side.
“I’m alright, remember I could still take care of you most of the time even when I wasn’t an Altered.” Vere answered. “So thing’s are a lot easier this time.”
The public were dragging their feet through the water continuing to run out, and with the recent attack it seemed like both groups were waiting for one or the other to act.
With Austin, he had done the same, he had avoided one of the claw hits and with perfect timing through an almighty punch. As he did a man was sent flying back. The water on the floor had split as if it was trying to divide it into two waves.
He continued until his back had hit the bar, right where Stunker was now standing on top of.
“Do I really have to get involved with a tier-2 gang, what is this!” Stunker thought.
Out from his back, he had pulled out a metal pack, and in the pack there were several darts inside made of metal. Pulling it out, he held one of them firmly in his hands.
“Now which one of this lot is going to cause me the most trouble?”
Stunker could see Izzy and his right hand man going against each other, it seemed like he had the upper hand so it didn’t matter too much over there. It was the others that were struggling.
“Alright, let’s see how you deal with this.” Stunker smiled.
Austin waited for the right moment, and when he was ready, he swung his fist again. All he had to do was get rid of these guys one at a time and then he would get rid of their leader.
In the middle of swinging his fist through, coming right at him like a bullet on fire, he saw something pass his eye, and it hit him right in the chest. A flaming dart pierced his skin, and it was bruising, igniting with power.
It was a strong hit as well causing him to flush and miss his punch entirely, the member then with his flaming hand had punched Austin right on the chin. It made a cut and a searing sensation below.
Ignoring it, Ausitn lifted both hands and swung them down on top of the man. His legs were crushed as he fell back into the water, but right after that move, several more flaming darts came out, hitting Austin in the chest one after the other.
The heat was rising on his skin, and the blood was dripping from his body.
“AUSTIN!!!!” Vere screamed.
