[Armored Scale Formation]!
Souta's skin trembled uncontrollably. It looks like something was wriggling inside his skin.
In the next moment, black scales appeared all over his skin. It was glimmering and an ominous aura was seeping out of the scales.
Zzzz!
Blood poured out and covered his entire body. His clothes stuck on his body as blood continued to flow.
Ohm!
Souta moved his hand as dark and light aura formed above his palm. These two distinct energies started to fuse with the blood. It gives the blood form and power.
When he closed his palm, the entire blood became solid. It turned into a new armor.
His head was covered in a white plain helmet. It has eight dots on its face and there were three cuts on both sides of the helmet. It had one black horn protruding from the center of the forehead.
As for his body, it was covered in black and white carapace. On his back were four spider limbs with sharp tips that could slice through metals.
Every second, blood veins could be seen through the armor thumping a tremendous amount of energy.
[Blood Armor: Jade Spider]!
Souta opened and closed his palm feeling the power flowing through his body. He trained inside Saya's inner consciousness for seventy days. After he learned the [Hidden Concealment Method] to hide the energy signature of his [Cosmic Body], he explored the uniqueness of his race.
The Crimson Twilight's potential was huge.
Using the blood as his medium, he upgraded the trait skill [Armored Scale Formation]. The blood was akin to a container that held the dark and light energy with [Armored Scale Formation].
If it was like that then, he couldn't create a new form of armor. At that time, he realized the connection between Blood Goblin and Crimson Twilight.
He realized that he had traits of other monsters thanks to his previous race, the Blood Goblin. In short, what he needed to do was tap into that small genes flowing through his blood.
He couldn't use the blood of other creatures on this armor. He could only use his blood. That's why it was a dangerous technique that could lead to his death. If not for his regenerative power, he wouldn't think of creating an armor using his own blood.
This was the power of Crimson Twilight.
The power to create combo traits using the traits that he gained when he was still a Blood Goblin.
It depends on the traits that he chose when he evolved into Blood Goblin.
Saya called this Third Mode. It was a time when he would use various traits in a battle. The Second Mode was for his spells and combat art while in the Third Mode, he will add his traits to further increase his combat power.
Souta turned his head and looked at the three people.
"Now, let's continue our fight."
The three people looked at him warily. His form had changed and as everyone knew, when a monster changed its form it means that its ability had grown stronger. Its power rose sharply.
"If you're not going to attack then let me start it."
Souta's figure flickered.
Swoosh!
The swordsman's pupils shrank. He quickly slashed his sword on his left side.
Clang!
"Good reaction." Souta laughed before he repeatedly slashed the vajra sword.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The two exchanged high-speed blows for a few seconds before one of them flew away and crashed on the ground.
Boom!
Souta was about to chase after the swordsman when the spear woman attacked him.
She thrust the spear several times as cold energy spread in the area.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Souta moved his body from side to side, dodging the spear of the woman with great accuracy.
Although he grew stronger with this armor, it wasn't to the point that he could overpower three One Shackle Realm experts at the same time. After all, this wasn't his release form.
There's no way that it could match the added power of release form.
There's no way it could match the reason why people formed a party to subjugate a monster of the same level.
In the next few minutes, the swordsman and spear woman fought Souta in a close-range battle while the support-type was healing their injuries and casting barriers to protect them from fatal attacks.
Suddenly, the swordsman and the spear woman stopped moving. They looked around them and found that there were countless thin webs in the whole area.
'When did he set this up?!' The swordsman said inwardly.
None of them noticed it. Even his comrades were shocked when they realized that webs were all over the entire area.
"Ehe~ surprise..."
Souta laughed and he pulled dozens of webs at the same time.
In an instant, the webs turned into blood-red color and an enormous amount of energy flowed through them.
[Blood Thread: Dark Weaving]!
The swordsman, spear woman, and the support mage felt danger. Their instinct was screaming that these webs were dangerous. They had to run.
Their pupils shrank as countless webs tightened around them.
Argh!
The support mage gritted her teeth as she casted powerful barriers to protect the two and herself.
BOOM!!!
Souta observed the scene with a cold look on his face. Three explosions occurred at the same time and his webs were torn apart one by one. The energy inside the webs exploded the moment it snapped out.
BOOM!! BOOM!!
A series of explosions sounded covering the entire place in smoke and dust.
At the same time, Souta glanced at the system seeing notifications popping up one after another. It means that the explosion caused by his webs killed numerous civilians.
"They are still alive..."
He could feel their blood flow. He raised his hand and looked down at his armor. His armor had dents and cracks on its surface. It was a proof that fighting these three wasn't easy.
"It's an enjoyable battle."
Souta laughed lightly before he charged forward. Countless blood-red webs followed behind him.
Swoosh!
The three people were covered in blood and their bodies were full of injuries. The support mage was trying to use all of her mana to heal the other two when Souta charged at them.
"Continue to heal us!" The swordsman shouted as he tightened his grip on his sword.
The spear woman raised her trembling hands and pointed her spear at Souta.
They were ready to fight until death.
"Good."
Souta smiled as he continued to charge forward.
Swoosh!
The swordsman slashed his sword and the spear woman thrust her spear. Their weapons pierced Souta's body.
They noticed that something was wrong. It felt different. It feels like their attacks didn't land on a monster's body.
"Shit!!"
The body in front of them slowly turned into a pile of webs and blood.
They quickly turned around having an ominous feeling in their hearts.
What they saw was a humanoid monster covered in black and white carapace behind their comrade.
"Ehe~ goodbye!"
Souta waved his hand. Countless thin webs flew and pierced the body of the support mage. Her defense was the lowest among all the Shackled Realm experts here.
She was the easiest to kill.
"Ugh! W-What!"
The support mage looked down and saw countless webs sticking out of her body. Blood slowly flows from her seven orifices.
Souta exhaled as he grabbed the webs before pulling them.
Bang!
The body of the support mage was shredded into tiny pieces. She was torn apart like a piece of paper.
"One down. The most problematic person is finally gone."
Souta said as he focused his attention on the two.
Right now, no one could heal them or cast a barrier to protect them from his attack.
They had no support.
They were on their own.
Ohm!
A dark and light aura coated the vajra sword.
[Cross Moon]!!
The swordsman and the spear woman moved their bodies to avoid the energy blade. They didn't want to block Souta's attack with their current condition. There's a chance that their wounds would open up due to the force of the attack.
Unfortunately for them, Souta wouldn't give them a chance.
Swoosh!
Souta appeared beside the swordsman.
The swordsman reacted by slashing his sword.
Souta didn't move and he just stared at the opponent. The sword of the swordsman landed on his shoulder and it sunk deep into his bones.
He quickly raised his hand and grabbed the blade of the sword. Then, blood came out of his wounds before it swallowed the sword.
"Shit!!"
The swordsman wanted to release the sword but he realized that webs were tightly wrapping his hand on the handle of his sword.
The spear woman charged forward wanting to help him.
"No! Don't come here! It's a trap!" The swordsman cried out.
"It's too late," Souta muttered and the whole scenery changed.
[Blood Thread: Despair Cage]!
The spear woman stopped moving as she turned her head. She saw blood-red webs swirling in every direction creating a huge sphere with three of them inside it.
They were locked here with that monster. They had no way out aside from defeating him.
"Your sword almost reached my heart. Too bad, you don't have enough strength to push through it."
Souta said to the swordsman before the cage shrunk at high speed. Immense best feram were flowing through every strand of webs. It was thumping.
It will be the end for these two Shackled Realm experts. They wouldn't be able to escape death with these.
"Argh!!"
The swordsman realized that they were going to die. He roared as he used his last bit of strength to launch a powerful attack.
"You can't hope to defeat the Red Matter!!"
The spearwoman followed after him. She used all of her energy without caring about her defense.
BOOM!!
