Pati and the Brawler ran at each other full speed without restraining any of their strength back, both of them go all out from the start realizing that their counterpart is at least as strong as them. Seeing the Brawler activating its Hammer Fist skill, Pati sheathed back his sword.
Even though he's fighting a Zombie, his ego in this new world sky-rocketed.
Accepting the challenge of the Brawler that is main in strength stat, he also activates his Hammer Fist Skill in response to the Brawler as both of them charge at each other.
BAM!
[You have been damaged, -50 Hp]
The sound of flesh hitting flesh reverberated to the surroundings creating a subtle shockwave of wind, it was so loud that Dinda who is already far looks back curiously.
What she saw made her worried since the Brawler is juiced, Pati might not be able to beat it.
But the word losing never cross Pati's mind despite realizing that their initial clash was won by the Brawler who turns out to have higher strength than him, he got pushed a couple of steps back proving the winner of the initial clash.
Instead of backing away, Pati's crazed smile becomes even wider as he glared at the Brawler.
Sacrificing 32,000 Chaos in order to not lose out in terms of strength and also piercing that thick skin of the Brawler, Pati's strength point increased by 40 points reaching 244 points. It's not an exaggeration if he says that he can feel his muscles move and gets more condensed under his skin.
The cost of raising 1 stat point is 800 Chaos, it's getting expensive the higher his points are.
For Pati the higher the cost of 1 stat point is something that he appreciates, without feeling the pain of spending Chaos to increase his stats then he will not have the feeling of joy. Right now, he's feeling the utmost joy in spending that 32,000 Chaos.
BAM!
The Brawler and Pati's fist clashes powerfully, but now the one that smirks is Pati.
Even the Brawler that shouldn't have any consciousness was surprised to see that it loses out in strength when it just won a moment ago, but Pati didn't let this chance slide away as he rotate his body by using the big arm of the Brawler as an axis to throw a roundhouse kick straight to its face.
It landed solidly sending a couple of teeth flying out of its mouth, reducing what little it has left.
While feeling the excitement of fighting something this strong and even winning, Pati saw the Brawler's other fist screeching the asphalt ground intending to uppercut him into oblivion.
This is where the Street Fighter Champion skill comes to play,
Pati's eyes dilated forming a couple of counterattacks inside his head before the uppercut even reaches him, his mind is working to the utmost limit and finds the perfect counterattack.
Dodging the uppercut by a hair's length, he can feel the force from the air created.
There's no doubt inside his body and bones that if he got hit by that at least half of his hp will be gone from his bones breaking, but thankfully he's still more agile than the Brawler. After dodging the uppercut, Pati sent a straight punch right on its elbow.
Crack!
Roar!!
His punch landed right on the Brawler's elbow, hyperextending it in an unnatural way.
But despite his solid punch that is destructive enough to blow concrete walls, the Brawler's bone is super hard, 'Not potent enough, eh... then I'll just need to do it more! Get ready to get each hinge of your body broken!
Bam!
Bam!
Jeff watches the fight from the side with wide eyes,
Although the Brawler is known to be not that agile compared to Runner or even Heavy Walkers, the abundance of Chaos helps it move better and certainly more agile than before. Because of that, both of them are moving so fast and strong.
Pati on the other hand strikes with precision and brings with him an intent to kill.
It's hard to find any gap between their exchange of blows that creates a devastating meaty sound each time they landed, even if Jeff wanted to join in, he can't considering the fight is out of his league.
Unconsciously, Jeff already clenches both of his fists realizing that he's left behind.
Bam!
Growl!
There's a gruesome smile that blossoms on Pati's face when he manages to finally hyperextended the Brawler's right elbow to the unnatural side, its bone even manages to pierce the hard skin which completely disabling its right arm.
But Pati celebrated too early and didn't realize that there was a car heading toward him.
"Graaargh!!"
Pati got sent crashing to the wall on the side after snapping the street light into two, the attack landed solidly without him putting on his guard because of celebrating too early.
Boom!
[You have been damaged, -400 Hp!]
"Huakhh!"
A mouthful of blood bursts out of his mouth after his back crashes to the wall, and when he's reading the message from the system he can't help but curse, "Fucking hell..."
Although it's only a measly 400 hp that is only a third of his hp bar, the hit seems to crack some of the bones on his ribcage. It stings to even stand up, but Pati just clenches his jaw and looks back at the Brawler that has its right arm broken beyond measure.
On the Brawler's other hand, it is holding a car that it used to hit him before.
"You fucking cheater, I thought we were going full brawl mode!", Pati cursed before giving the Brawler a ridiculing smile, the Brawler growls angrily upon seeing the ridiculing smile and raises the car intending to smash Pati.
But before it can do that, Jeff jumps from its back before swinging both of his battle axes.
Slash!
ROAR!
Jeff used his All-out slash skill to completely blind the left eye of the Brawler. No matter how hard its skin has become, the eyes will always be a squishy spot that can be hurt easily even with a needle much less two battle axes.
"You're welcome", he said without glancing at Pati.
Hearing this Pati can't help but chuckle to himself, he looks to his front and saw the Brawler's left eye is non-existent after getting hit by Jeff's battle axes, "Alright, let's end this"
ROAR!!
In the next second, Pati and Jeff already sprinted towards the Brawler.
Jeff went to the right side of the Brawler and saw it swinging the car in its right hand towards him, but trying to not panic he immediately slides to the ground dodging the car perfectly.
But just as the Brawler did that, Pati manage to jump with his Peacekeeping Sword Grinder.
Slash!
The sword cuts through the side of its neck managing to pierce its thick skin that is stronger than steel, and not stopping there Pati used the teeth of the sword as a chainsaw and started pushing and pulling it trying to cut its head off.
With a couple of pushes and pulls, the sword manages to reach half of the Brawler's neck.
Pati wanted to keep going but he saw the Brawler trying to grab him, he doesn't have any time to pull out the sword since it was stuck so he abandoned it and somersaulted back to safety. It was just at the same time Jeff reached its back and slash its other eye.
Splat!
Both of the Brawler's eyes are gone forcing it to wail around the car it's holding trying to hit Pati and Jeff that are already backing away, it has no choice but to rely on its senses which is pretty bad.
"I'm halfway through, try and trip it to make it easier!"
"Alright, I'll try"
When Pati was about to kill the Brawler in front of him, his eyes suddenly saw something.
Just on the back of the wailing Brawler was the Jericho Paradise Beach which is their destination, but upon squinting his eyes he saw a person rolling on the ground. It's hard to see the person's face since there's quite a distance between them.
Pati tries to focus his eyes before suddenly he recognizes the person, it was Dinda!
At the end of the street, he can see a Zombie that should be a dog landing on top of a car not far from Dinda. This made his eyes widen in alertness as the muscles on his legs bulged, "DINDA!!"
Swoosh!
Without even minding the Brawler, Pati uses his Leap skill and dashes away.
Despite his speed being 20 times faster than a regular person's before the apocalypse, he realized that he doesn't have the time to reach Dinda since the Dog Zombie already charging with its mouth wide open intending to bite her head off.
Because of getting flung away, Dinda seems to be hurt so she doesn't realize the Dog Zombie.
'I can't reach her...! Even if I threw something at that thing, I will be too late!', Pati thought inside his head, but when all hope seems to be lost out of nowhere a spray of bullets hits the Dog Zombie right on its head.
That did nothing to the Dog Zombie since its bones that are protruding out of its body manage to deflect all of the bullets, but it's enough to attract its attention away from Dinda.
Upon seeing this, Pati ripped a street light while running and threw it at the Dog Zombie.
Swish!!
Dinda recover from her dizziness and realized the Dog Zombie is just beside her looking back at a man wearing a kevlar, he's the leader of the group that asked Pati to join and also the one responsible for shooting the Dog Zombie.
"Move! Get inside the beach right now!!!", the man shouted at Dinda.
Without wasting any time, Dinda runs to the side limply while the Dog Zombie prowls with its mouth trembling into a menacing growl looking at the man with bloodshot eyes.
But just as the man started backing away, his eyes catches a swift metallic object.
The metallic object comes out of nowhere and he can only see it for a fraction of a second before in the next second, it crashes onto the Dog Zombie powerfully. But despite the force from the metallic object, it only manages to push the Dog Zombie a couple of steps to the side.
Even though it did hardly anything, it was enough for Pati as he tackled the Dog Zombie.
GROWL!
What the man see is only a lunatic that wore torn black t-shirt tackling the Dog Zombie like a madman and started wrestling with it, and from the looks of it, the man seems to be overpowering the Dog Zombie.
Some of the survivors that finally come out of their hiding after Pati tackled the Dog Zombie also look at the bloody scene in fear, there's one sentence that went past all of their minds.
'This guy is nuts!'
Bam!
Bam!
Like someone possessed by the devil, Pati kept pounding and pounding the Dog Zombie.
Many of the messages from the system appeared in his view every time he punched the Dog Zombie and got grazed by the sharp bones protruding out of its body, but his adrenaline kicked in and he didn't stop.
Even when the Dog Zombie tries to get up and reset the fight, Pati grabs it by the head or sharp bone before yanking it back down like a dog whisperer subduing a regular dog.
Unlike the Brawler, this Dog Zombie doesn't have that much strength.
Maybe for many, they view the Dog Zombie as having a very high strength. But turns out it doesn't, its main focus is agility and that got thrown to the sewer the moment Pati is able to tackle it down beneath him and started pounding like a maniac.
His form of mounting the Dog Zombie is perfect and hard for it to get out and recover.
With his legs that pinched the Dog Zombie's body hindering most of its options to escape, Pati completely renders its defensive capability useless.
By the end of the ruthless and merciless pounding to the point that the man on the side watching this felt bad for the Dog Zombie, his fists and arms are bloodied from getting scratched by the protruding bones. Pati ended the fight by strangling its neck so powerfully that he even manages to rip its head off.
[Gained a level 27 Resilient Zombified Canidae Chaos!]
[Class restriction has been employed, unable to absorb gained Chaos!]
Splurt!
Upon ripping its head off without anything other than brute force, blood sprayed everywhere like a fountain drenching Pati's clothes with nasty dark red blood. It's almost black and very gooey.
There's no change in Pati's expression as he got drenched in the Dog Zombie's blood.
Pati then smashes its skull with one punch cracking its head open before harvesting the brain, he then glanced at the man wearing kevlar still stunned by what he had just witnessed. From his slow and steady steps, the sound of dripping blood snaps the man out of his daze.
Although the night is not chilly in fact stiflingly hot, the man can feel the coldness coming from Pati's body that makes his blood runs cold. It's terrifying to see the state Pati is currently in.
Red blackish blood covers most of his face, and even dripping from his hair.
The only visible part of his face is only his eyes which are calm despite the stench of blood so thick and rotten, that even a veteran military man will not be able to stand the stench of the blood. It's haunting to see someone can be this calm in this current situation.
Upon reaching right in front of the man, Pati looks into the man's eyes.
His gaze alone makes the man gulps harshly, but what comes out of Pati's mouth is contrasting with his devilish appearance, "You really did try and protect us, I'm impressed. Thank you for that"
