Chapter 66: 66. They enjoy chaos
The lizard lunged at her with its jaws wide open. It's speed was nothing too much as Dexter saw it as too slow.
Lily jumped even higher than the lizard before swinging her hand downwards, scratching the lizard's nose with her claws.
The lizard hissed loudly as it turned around to see Lily still coming towards it again.
It twirled its body, waving it's long tail to trip her leg.
Dexter raised a brow as she was quite close already but he was shocked to see her perform a front flip and she punched lizard's head as it came towards her from its spin.
The lizard hissed in pain but Lily wasn't done as she began attacking all parts of its body.
'Hm? Who knew she was such a fast learner? Front jab, hook punch, spinning kick...' Dexter was impressed with his student.
The lizard, after taking so many hits was in a terrible condition. It only had one eye left and almost all of its teeth were knocked out. It had claw marks all over its body and it hissed as it began scaling up the building beside them.
''Hm? You won't finish it up?'' Dexter asked as they watched the lizard escape in front of them.
''I added poison skill on my claws.'' Lily said as she showed him her glowing, green claws.
''That means most of its injuries are already poisoned.'' Dexter mumbled with a smile and they moved backwards as they saw the lizard falling from the building.
*Crash!*
Dexter smiled as the lizard fell in front of them, completely dead.
''What level was it?'' He asked.
''Level 9. It was quite tough to deal with.'' Lily said but Dexter was surprised.
'At her level I wasn't defeating creatures that were too higher than me in level.' Dexter sighed.
''I have a lot free stat points. Should I use them?'' Lily asked as she looked at the sit in front of her.
''Hmmm... you're fighting with your hands and legs so i guess your physical stats need to be complimenting each other.'' Dexter said but Lily didn't understand a word he said.
''Just add to Agility too. Those gauntlets give 50 strength points so your speed also has to be able to back up your strength.'' He said and she proceeded.
''What level are you now?'' He asked.
''I'm at level 8.'' Lily chuckled and Dexter sighed tiredly.
''It's because you have a mentor.'' He mumbled. ''Come on, Let's see what else your powers can do.''
...
They continued walking around the area, Dexter acknowledged Lily as a true student as she was extremely attentive and got all the skills he taught her.
Plus, with ger poison claws and natural martial art ability, she was extremely formidable.
''Don't go too far, if you see any powerful creature, just yell my name.'' Dexter said to Lily who nodded excitedly as she dashed towards the zombies ahead on the road.
...
Dexter went back to another direction to check on his brothers and see what level they achieved.
He saw them all handling a a centipede type monster. Dexter guessed that Jude had an enhancing skill as he moved around skillfully, waving his short thin swords.
Collins was not too far off and used nothing but a circular shield to defend himself while fighting it off with his fists.
'Huh? Where's Henry?' Dexter thought as he looked around.
In that instant, a circle glowing purple with multiple symbols arranged appeared below the centipede and black chains shot out, wrapping around the creature.
'Oh. He's behind.' Dexter realized.
Behind the centipede was Henry who had nothing but two daggers in his hands.
''Do it now!'' Henry shouted and Collins and Jude nodded before charging forward.
Collins jumped up and went above the creature, he waved his arm downwards with his shield and the circular edge hit the creatures head, making it shriek loudly.
Jude jumped on the body and stabbed its neck deep, before twisting his sword.
*SHRIEEEEK!!*
The creature shrieked loudly in pain as the sword went deeper and deeper.
Henry put both of his hands close, dismissing his daggers and the chains on the body of the creature began to get tighter and tighter.
Collins looked at the neck, making a random guess whether it will have a throat and he jumped high with his bare fist.
While still going upwards he raised his fist up and slammed into the crestures neck making a loud banging sound.
Dexter was surprised at their teamwork.
''They must have made plans beforehand.'' Dexter concluded.
When they were done and the creature finally collapsed Dexter walked towards them with a smile.
''Wow. Level 20 right?'' Dexter asked as the centipede was a little bigger than the one Brian fought before.
''It's just at level 16.'' Jude said as he sat on the floor while panting in exhaustion.
''I thought it was higher than that, seeing how you guys struggled.'' Dexter nodded and they all looked at him.
''Were just level 11 to 14. We can't take om a level 20.'' Henry sighed, but then his eyes widened as he looked at Dexter who was nodding.
''Wait. What level are you? You said you fought a level 20 titan.'' Henry asked.
''A level 20 titan that was injured and weak.'' Dexter corrected. ''I'm at level 18.''
''Damn.'' The boys were all devastated to hear that he fought with a creature higher than himself.
They all just reasoned that it was probably because he was a vampire.
...
Dexter returned to see Lily in front of the building waiting for him and immediately she saw him, she ran towards him and hugged him.
''I reached level 8.'' She said excitedly.
''Yes, yes, that's good.'' Dexter too laughed but he was sad that he had no one to show him the ropes.
''Ah, I get no hug.'' Henry chuckled while spreading his arms but Lily just ignored him and walked into the building with Dexter.
The soldiers that were at the entrance who saw what happened were laughing at him.
Collins and Jude who saw what happened came from his sides before putting Henry's arms down.
''It's alright. Just come inside.'' Collins said and Jude looked at the building with interest.
Collins ran past Jude and into the building with a smile as he heard something enjoyable.
They entered to see Dexter smiling at the current situation and they smiled.
''You were having sex with my wife!''
''Why aren't you talking to her about it?! You coward!''
''Shut it! I'm gonna kill you today!!'' Two men pounced on each other and Dexter and his brothers were busy chuckling as they watched the soldiers trying to separate the men.
''What's happening?'' Lily asked Henry as she looked up.
Henry just sighed as he forgot whaymt happened outside.
''You see, these three weirdos enjoy watching chaos.''
