Chapter 52: Revenants' Madness
Priam threw his spear with all his might. The weapon had barely left his hand before it penetrated the Abomination's head. The room shook as the spear sank into the wall behind with the grace of a cannonball.

Priam turned to the petrified priest. "I think we have some things to talk about..." His jaw still throbbed with pain, but he forced himself to articulate. The pain was nothing compared to that of some of his deaths.
Priam's words woke the terrified man, and he ran for the exit. Priam set off in pursuit. A few meters from his target, his instincts screamed out and the Baron leaped high. Priam instinctively clung to the ceiling and activated [Kinetic Control] to stay there.

A tentacle of flesh had sprouted from the Abomination's body. Like a whip, the appendage had tried to sweep Priam away. Priam's eyes widened as the monstrosity continued to whip through the void, hoping to hit its target. This thing isn't dead!
The tentacle stood still for a moment and Priam analyzed it. Without its head, it can't... Suddenly, the appendage charged toward Priam. The young man used a kinetic charge to project himself against one of the room's pillars. From there, he leaped straight for the priest and grabbed his throat. Priam swung his prisoner towards the Abomination.
"If that creature attacks, you die. Tell it to back off," he ordered.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.
The priest struggled as the Abomination reconstituted itself. One of its arms swept across the floor. The bits of flesh, blood and bone that had spurted out when the head exploded were reabsorbed. Within seconds, the creature was complete again. Its capacity for regeneration was delirious.
Priam shook the priest as the Abomination turned towards them. His instincts told him it was going to attack.
"What the hell are you doing?! It's going to kill us!"
No, it will kill you.
The priest struggled harder, "It won't obey me! It's a creature of the Depth. It only ignores me because I've been blessed by the Grand Master. It won't protect me, so get off my back!"
Priam stepped back, pulling the priest with him. He had begun to summon his mist from the start of the fight and it eventually touched the tip of his spear still embedded in the wall. With a mental bend, he could call it back to him.
Priam leaned toward the priest's ear and said. "If you can't stop him, then point out his weakness. Otherwise, you're no use to me..."
Priam suspected he had to attack the Abomination's core - or cores. However, due to the creature's shifting body, he had no idea where it was. The Abomination was only Baron rank, but it was very complicated to kill and its physical attributes were enormous. For the moment, this thing didn't use any skills. Or maybe a body control skill?
Priam was still backing towards the tunnel when the Abomination screamed. A moment later, the Baron felt a kind of heat on his thigh. Priam pushed the priest away, thinking of an attack. Looking down, he saw that the Revenant had simply pissed himself in fear.
The two men looked at each other and Priam understood that the man was terrified. He really had no way of calming the creature.
"I... I'm not sure. They have an aether-packed core in the body. Certain skills can..." A slash from the Abomination cut him off - in two. Blood smeared Priam's clothing. Priam reacted immediately, leaping backward and hurling his spear to wound the monster. It shrieked and Priam took the opportunity to focus on Micro.
He needed more power in his throws if he was to overcome the behemoth and its regeneration. The supremacy synergized with his throwing skill to optimize the movement and power of the muscles in his entire body. The result could wipe out the monster with ease, and Priam wanted nothing less.
Part of his brain noted the creature's motions. To attack, the Abomination had propelled its body at a frightening speed. Priam hadn't seen it coming and realized that the creature could manipulate its body to move inhumanly. It didn't need to stretch any muscles that Priam could see, making it unpredictable. I'll have to be careful...
The Baron focused, thinking that the Revenants were playing with fire. This creature was far superior to Orthos or Nemea. Galapagos could have killed it by attacking from afar, but in this tunnel, the chimera was superior to the Viscount. Priam was now convinced that Anatole didn't know what he was doing - or that he was crazy.
As if to prove him right, the Abomination moved forward and its arms touched the two pieces of the priest's corpse. Instantly, the two pieces began to vibrate and then melt. A second later, they had merged with the chimera, which now seemed a little larger. The Revenants had created an unstoppable weapon. If they weren't killed quickly, these monsters could become veritable cataclysms...
The Abomination then stood still, turning its head as if to spot Priam. The mist had finally invaded the underground and the Abomination seemed lost, unable to see or sense the young man.
Priam teleported his spear in his hand and activated [Aether Perception] to observe the world in search of the core. The world changed. A new color, unknown to the rainbow, was superimposed on Priam's vision. The air seemed filled with both golden dust and a silvery fluid.
Lvl Up: [Aether Perception] lvl 4
META (PERC) +3
Priam looked down at his hands and saw new veins irrigating his body. Not veins, meridians. Turning his hands and clenching his fists, he smiled as he discovered a new facet of this universe. He lifted his head and watched the creature turn on itself, uncertain.
Priam watched his enemy for a few moments. His own meridians were golden green, and his new vision painted the chimera a dark purple.
