Two notifications rang inside Mark's brain as he felt the most terrible pain of his life. This pain was even horrible than what he had gone through previously when his Agility had hit the 20-point mark.
This time again, it was his Agility stat that reached 30 points, as if he were supported by this amazing stat, which was now making his life hell.
Mark felt as if his legs were getting broken and mended, his body was getting broken and mended, and his brain itself was getting broken and mended.
As the pain drilled on each and every part of his body, making his veins pop out, his eyes widened enough to nearly fall out, his blood vessels swelled as if they were about to burst open, but nothing such thing happened.
It was as if some power was supporting his body from falling apart, but all that made his pain even miserable.
As he felt his entire body getting stretched into weird angles, as if he were some kind of rubber, but all that broke his bones such that he could not describe.
While Mark was going through the ordeal of his life, above on the ground, chaos and slaughter hadn't stopped. In fact, it intensified.
Mark's slaughter killed a chunk of monkeys, giving Blake the leeway he needed, while his clouded judgment also returned.
Instead of going to slaughter more monkeys, he ran towards his fallen gun, which had fallen inside the fiery water, but what was surprising was that instead of getting melted like any other steel meeting fire, his gun remained intact, as if it couldn't feel any of the fiery temperature.
Taking his chance, he jumped inside the water, and seeing him jumping, some of the monkeys jumped too, just to crazily howl, as they remembered what this lake meant for their lives, making the other monkeys who were ready to jump stop.
But Blake did not stop; he reached for his gun, pulled one of the magazines out of his space, loaded it, and swam out.
Seeing the weapon in Blake's hand, which had just slaughtered their brethren, the monkeys were shell-shocked, but there was some hesitation in their minds too, not believing whether he could do the same thing that the other creature did.
But their hesitation turned into horror when again the sound of ratatatatata rang, slithering their bodies, piercing them as if they were nothing but a piece of paper, as all the monkeys tried to run away in terror, but it was already too late.
Blake shook his gun from left to right, not targeting anyone specifically, but hitting anywhere there was a larger group running towards the forest.
His gun could fire ten rounds per second, five thousand rounds in fifty seconds, and he took complete advantage of that.
Within ten seconds, he had killed enough monkeys for him to feel piercing pain in his body.
The same pain he had felt before as a painful howl leaked out of his mouth unconsciously, and that was what Mark saw when he got out of the darkness.
Blake falling inside the crater, which the water had filled, flailing and screaming in agony, making him confused as to what was happening, cuz the monkeys were running in horror from Blake, instead of trying to kill him.
What made him more shocked was the number of dead monkeys whose bodies had increased close to twice what he had killed, as finally it struck him what had happened, making him shocked and angry.
As turning into shadow, he rushed inside the lake, remaining in the shadow mode where nothing could touch him, he jumped from below Blake, until he had reached on top where he was flailing, and the moment he got outside, he wrapped his tail on Blake's neck and threw him towards the ground with all his power.
Screaming and thrashing in terror, Blake fell to the ground. He was helpless. He couldn't do anything, as he saw angrily Mark rushing towards him, and then the big mouth of the tiger bit right on his face.
Biting with all his power, Mark thrashed Blake everywhere, as his paws smacked and scratched Blake's upper body to tear it apart, but what made Mark insane was that nothing happened, even after his amazing transformation.
Right now, his agility stat was as much as 40 points, even his strength stat was 19.1, including his transformation state, it was 29.1 points, which was enough for him to crush anyone and anything.
Not to say his second passive skill, the ravager, which allowed him to destroy anything and anyone twenty times stronger than himself.
Yet he couldn't do anything to Blake, as he suddenly felt Blake retaliating, smacking his both palms on his stomach, making him fly in the air, as crashing and rolling he fell to the ground.
Hearing the howl which was getting closer, hurriedly Mark hid inside the shadow, as he saw Blake pounding the place where he was, destroying the land itself into pieces, making him feel complete loss.
No matter what he did, he just couldn't damage Blake, why couldn't he damage him?
Was it because his strength stat wasn't enough? Was that the reason?
If that was the case, then all he needed to do was slaughter some more monkeys, fill his strength stat enough to come back and slaughter Blake.
So without wasting his time, he ignored Blake and ran at full speed towards the monkeys, which had now run inside the forest in fear.
He moved towards the area where the groups were running, but behind him was also coming Blake, who somehow could see where he was going.
Although he was nearly five times slower than him, he was still coming to where he was running, as if he wanted to kill him with his own hands, but Mark did not mind that; he even welcomed it.
As soon he reached where the monkeys were screeching and jumping from one tree to another, as leaping out of the shadow, he bit at the head of the monkey which was in front of him.
