CHAPTER 71
Right in front of Trisha, Chloe, Van, and Kai, a hulking creature stood exactly where the Aberrant had been looming just moments earlier.
Standing at a daunting three metres tall, the beast was covered in thick brown fur with streaks of shimmering silver coating its powerful body like a tight, protective blanket.
Its black eyes burned with a seething, primal rage, locked onto the Aberrant with predatory focus.
With every heavy huff of air, the creature exhaled a low growl that sounded like a monster awakening from the depths of hell.
Each vibration was as menacing and guttural as the roar of a lion from the ancient world.
The creature stood on two feet like a human, but the similarities ended there.
Its legs, specifically the massive thighs, were twice the width of a normal human's torso, rippling with explosive potential.
Two thick hands ended in sharp, wicked-looking claws that appeared capable of splitting the very earth in two.
