Chapter 862: Top 50 In The AFC

The message sent out by Kai was heard loud and clear by everyone in the Howlers, and some of them took it to heart. Instead of trying to win their fights, they now were trying to last as long as possible.

Raven had transformed his body; large heads had appeared and were in the air. Numba had been picked up by one of the Hydra Altered's heads, its teeth biting down on his stomach and flinging him to the side until he hit a wall.

"This Altered's strength is crazy; does he have the same strength in each head?" Numba thought as he tried to get back up.

Charging in were both Marie and Olivia at the same time. They struck from two sides, trying to hit the heads, but weren't fully committing. They were carefully waiting for a strike and moved from side to side.

Marie had avoided attacks from one of the Hydra's long winding heads, while Olivia, as she jumped back, swung her hands and used her whip. It was effective in hitting the Hydra, but she didn't dare try to wrap it around its head due to its strength.

Meanwhile, Ian and Izzy were together; Ian was growing spikes from his body and hurling them at the right time to try and stop an attack once in a while. He wasn't used to playing a supportive role, but against a target or enemy like this, it was the only thing he could really do.

Izzt was the one most at a loss, since her powers worked similar to the Hydra's in a way. Her Altered form focused on strengthening part of her hairs to wrap around, pull, drag, and hit its target, but the Hydra's head was far stronger than all of her power together.

Instead, she had decided to focus on the Phoenix Gang members who were getting up from the ground or now charging in for the attack. Some of the Howlers' members were supporting her from behind as they got closer and closer into Burnham food street.

"You told us to wait, Kai, so we're waiting, but I'm not sure waiting, for whatever, is going to help us beat this guy!" Olivia thought as she was looking at her own whip. She didn't realize it until now, but it was somehow beginning to wear out as well.

With all of them going up against Raven, they were doing okay holding him off now, but with one of them gone, then it would be over for them all.

In the hospital, the room had become a mess. The chairs that were attached to the tiled flooring had been ripped apart to shreds. Part of the walls were completely destroyed, crumbling with parts of them falling on the floor.

"This guy is too much; his large form is incredibly durable, and not just that, he seems to have some strange gravitational power in his hits which make them even harder!" Xin thought.

'I haven't been directly hit from above, but if I am, I'm done for.'

Xin was lucky that in his durable form, Gil was slower, but his strikes were incredibly powerful. He had transformed into his smaller form, and she hated to admit it, but he was perhaps just a little faster than even her, making it almost impossible for her to land a hit.

She had been hit a few times in his fast form already, but they weren't enough to take her down. But wearing her down bit by bit, Gil would transform into his large form and go for an attack just like he did now.

"The order sent by Kai told me to hold you off for as long as possible, but I'm not going to do that; I'm going to win this fight!" Xin thought.

She stretched out her hands and started to take in a deep breath. As she exhaled, sparks of electricity came out like a cold breath.

This was the start, the start of her Altered transformation.

Her hands had slightly changed; they were jagged in shape, looking something like feathers, but all of them were hard and solid, not soft.

This jagged feather-like pattern was bright yellow in color and went halfway up her arm, stopping just shy of her elbow. Sparks were continually going off between each of the feathers, and Xin's eyes were slightly narrowed as well. The iris of them glowing with a yellow color.

The rest of her body had remained intact; this was a practical transformation of her Altered form, rather than a full one, but something she felt like she needed to win the fight.

"Oh, what's this, this is the first time I've seen you like this!" Gil said with laughter. His face was like that of a jackal, and his size was incredibly large to the point his head nearly touched the ceiling.

"I heard even in the AFC they had never seen you transform into your Altered form. You managed to get to the top fifty with skill alone. Some thought that you might be some mythical humanoid type-based beast, but we can see that's not true now, right? Not like mine, based on the god Anubis!

"I am now a god of death, and I will bring you great Death!" Gil was punching both of his fist's together. Each time the power would ring through the hospital. The people above could feel shaking from above, and were slight worried that the floor might collapse underneath them.

"There's something else you forgot as well," Xin said as she started to crouch down while in her position.

"In the AFC, we aren't allowed to use our elemental powers. We can just use our Altered forms; the reason why this form has never been seen in the AFC before is because I can't control its power!"
