Chereads / Symbiotic Cultivation: Night Stalker / Chapter 25 - Third cheat

Chapter 25 - Third cheat

"Ha-"

Amid the attacking undead troop, Remy sigh of relief. His expression had a peaceful look on it as he finally understand how his cheat works, he thought that this was his end.

But now...

Remy put down the metallic weapon he was gripping. He lifted his right arm and opened it like he plans to crumble the enemy troops with his right arm alone.

"VOID CRUNCH!"

Remy shouted as the space between him and the army of undead turned to silence. Even guards, the scream of the enemy troops that are advancing towards him, were covered by something.

Suddenly, one of the leading soul guards, or guardian knights slowed down. Remy observes as he saw a rippling shadow from the void tears through space and soul guard's body.

'It is my cheat.'

He said as he rejoiced that this is a clear sign he could evolve three times in the lower world, the manifestation of his cheats.

Remy's third cheat is called...

Void Crunch.

Void Crunch creates a vortex of infinite darkness of the night, tearing space and opponents violently into the eternal darkness that once was.

The soul general could feel it. He was slowed without it knowing and being damaged. It was weak because of the level difference. That's why it is only as a scratch. It proceeded in Remy's direction after it was slowed for seven seconds.

"GURAAHH!!"

The general screamed, screaming at the army once again.

Remy furrowed his brow and thought, 'It was only that?' he asks. Hoping that just like his first cheat; Nightmare Precognition and second; Undead Appetite, this third cheat had another effect in the night or the dark.

However, before he could react and the general could advance.

The army of skeletons crumbled into pieces that shocked Remy greatly.

"What?!"

Even with his Nightmare Precognition ability to predict, everything happened so fast in the blink of an eye.

But he knew using his predicting ability that before the skeleton army crumbles, Remy observes that there's some echo of shock waves that was built from his Void echo keeps getting stronger as it passes through skeletons to skeletons.

'The soul guards are hurt?'

Remy noticed as the Soul guards, despite being high level had their energy depleted. But they never give up. All the three of them put injected their swords on the ground as they try to summon another group of a skeleton army.

'Let's do it once again.'

He said in his mind, and with difficulty, he lifted and points his palm with sharp claws like an eagle to the army of a skeletal army.

'This is a little hard. I'm getting so hungry and my aura will be depleted.'

Remy's right arm was once again covered with a combination of dark aura and death aura.

'VOID CRUNCH!'

Remy activated his third skill in a blink of an eye as he focused on his first skill Nightmare Precognition. He wanted to watch and see clearly in his eyes what is the true power of his third skill's additional effects during the night or in darkness.

He witnessed that when his skill hit the leading soul guard, there were shock waves that created spatial cracks that travel through the space of an area, damaging enemy units.

Each enemy army of skeletal units hit causes an echo to damage nearby skeletal units. Destroying them all to smithereens and damaging to where they would crumble due to the intensity of the echo.

Slowly, the three standing soul guards fell to the ground. Their aura is exhausted due to intense healing and summoning.

Just by the intensity is enough for them, what more of the two double echoes it receives that Remy saw by his ability heightened senses.

Pant!

Pant!

Pant!

Remy said as he breathe heavily, and says,

"Finally, it's done."

Then he fell to the ground.

Exhausted just like the soul guards, and hungry at the same time. Remy couldn't take it anymore as he let himself rest for a few seconds.

Looking at the ceiling, Remy had a smile on his face. Ignoring that, he might endanger himself if he keeps himself being hungry for a little more time because of his Undead Appetite. Remy is still smiling.

"It's close! It's close! HAHAHAHA!"

Uncharacteristically to himself, he made a maniacal smile. Thinking that everything will become easy once he grasps all his cheats!

Along with the unknown additional effects of it, he knew that all of them would be beneficial to him.

"My dreams, all my dreams are inside these monsters!"

Remy turned his attention to the fallen soul guards.

Kishi.

Kishi.

Crawling to the soul guards despite being exhausted. Remy didn't want to waste any more time. These soul guards would be energized again if he didn't hurry it up.

Because he knew how the death tower works. The important minions of every floor would come back to the life he didn't move fast to the upper floor.

That time, the evolutionary orbs inside their bodies would be gone and it would be useless for Remy to fight them again.

His mouth is watery due to the extreme hunger of his stomach, his eyes are sharp and fixed due to his obsession with power!

Remy crawls and crawl until he reached his destination; the dead soul guards!

It was believed that no one can kill a soul, ghost, or undead knight guards inside a death tower, for they will succumb to the curse of damnation.

Remy doesn't care about that as he swipes his massive symbiosis claw to the head of the guard and tore it open like an egg. The whole death tower trembled when he did that, as Remy noticed a slithering shadow like a snake coming to him.

"Curse seal?"

Remy sneered as he ignored it. His undead appetite, as expected destroyed the curse thoroughly, however, he became even more hungry.

In front of him is a pure soul that was contained inside the soul guard. It had a look of a kind old man. They are said to be pure and selfless people that help the death tower from standing tall.

A kind people that kill and their despair is the best source of evil energy of every death tower.

"Thank you, young man for freeing me."

The old man had his kind eyes turned to Remy and bowed.

"No problem old man."

Remy replied happily while his mouth is watery.

"I have to go now. I may not help you with something, but my heart will forever be grateful to you."

The old said like he is a benevolent old man he is. However, Remy only smiled full of malicious intent and replies,

"Oh no, Old man. I need you so much."

The old man trembled due to fear and shock because he read Remy's intention and tries to resist,

"What are you going to-"

However, all of that was useless because the old is not finished when Remy swiftly grabbed the soul of the kind old man on its head with his Symbiotic arm.

Remy's mouth suddenly transformed into that of a symbiotic beast and opened it wide as he put the old man's soul inside it.
