Chapter 226 225: Fatty's Determination
Corey and his group members were now trapped between two massive forces of nature, each equally deadly in its own right. The tornado was a raging vortex of wind and sand with the potential to strip flesh from bone and reduce even the sturdiest of structures to rubble.
Meanwhile, the army of Hastur was a force of pure nightmares, a relentless horde of eldritch horrors that would tear them apart without a second thought.
Divine gritted his teeth, his mind racing as he weighed their options. They had to act fast, or they would be caught in the middle of two disasters.
He looked at the massive twister with a calculating glint in his eyes. The gears in his mind furiously spun as he thought of how they could survive the massive tornado.
Facing the army of Hastur the Unspeakable with their current strength was 1,000,000% out of the question for them. He would rather face an army of dragons and phoenixes than the army of Hastur the Unspeakable.
His body shivered as he recalled some unpleasant memories of the past.
"CAP?!!"
A shout filled with panic shook his mind, and with a tremble, he looked at the source.
"Why the fuck are you dazed?! We're facing a crisis!"
Divine had a blank look as he looked at Fatty Black Bonez, who had an expression of anxiousness and rage.
A second later, Divine's eyes brightened as he looked at Fatty Black Bonez with a tinge of hope.
"Fatty. Our lives are going to be in your hands for now."
"What?"
Fatty Black Bonez had a stunned expression as he wondered what the hell their captain was saying.
Divine ignored Fatty and then turned to Rosa.
"Use the best barrier you have on the car and activate the car's barrier."
Divine spoke, his voice calm but urgent.
Rosa nodded, and then a blood-red barrier appeared around Racing Wolf.
Divine then turned to Corey, who had a grave expression as he looked at the gigantic tornado.
"Kid. Do the same thing as Rosa."
Divine said, and without waiting for Corey's reply, he turned to Fatty Black Bonez. But just as he turned, Corey spoke with a grave tone.
"The tornado has mystic energy."
"What?"
Divine's eyes widened. He looked at the tornado, and his red and blue eyes glowed briefly.
"Crap."
Divine's face twisted as he cursed The Clown endlessly in his heart.
"Bring out your strongest armor to protect yourselves! Use your best defensive skills on Racing Wolf! And pray to whatever god you serve to protect us!."
Divine shouted with a cold voice. Then he looked at Fatty Black Bonez, who was their main hope of surviving the tornado.
"Fatty. I need you to summon every bone you have to hold down Racing Wolf. You need to hold down Racing Wolf until we reach the eye of the storm."
Fatty Black Bonez nodded with a grave expression.
"I'll probably damage myself, but you can count on me."
"I'll make it up to you, don't worry."
Divine said, then he looked around. His eyes lit up when he saw a boulder to his right. He spread out his palm, and two grappling hooks appeared in his hands.
He gave one to Corey while he held the other. Corey looked at him, and Divine pointed at the boulder in the distance.
"Hook the boulder. In case Fatty isn't able to hold Racing Wolf. We'll be the ones to hold Racing Wolf.
Corey looked at the grappling hook, and not wanting to waste a second, he threw the grappling hook to the boulder. The rope of the grappling hook swirled around the boulder a few times. Then, the hook got attached to the boulder.
He snapped his fingers, and a hexagon barrier appeared around Racing Wolf. Although he was just tier 1, and his barrier was definitely weaker than Rosa's, it was better than nothing.
Divine nodded his head seeing Corey hook the boulder, and he also threw his and successfully hooked the boulder.
Fatty Black Bonez closed his eyes and muttered words that Corey could not understand. He made various hand signs, and a few seconds later, the ground beneath them trembled.
Multiple bony hands of various colors appeared from the ground, and they grabbed Racing Wolf on all sides.
Fatty exhaled deeply, sweat dripping all over his pale face.
Divine glanced at Fatty and Corey, both of whom were looking at him with a mix of calmness and determination.
He formed various hand signs, and a few seconds later, a crimson and icy blue barrier appeared around Racing Wolf.
'Let's just hope all of this can save us.'
Divine furrowed his brows as he looked at the multiple barriers and the bony hands around Racing Wolf.
"We'll make it through this. Stick together and trust each other."
With those words, Divine turned to face the tornado, his eyes gleaming with a fierce determination.
"Let's go."
The wind howled around them, sand whipping against their skin like a thousand needles.
Corey activated his Eyes of Omniscience, scanning the tornado for any weak spots or gaps they could exploit. He saw nothing but a swirling vortex of chaos, a force of nature beyond comprehension.
Fatty Black Bonez was gripping his seat tightly. His eyes squeezed shut as he muttered prayers under his breath.
Divine, on the other hand, was focused entirely on the road ahead, his mind calculating the best path through the storm, but he saw none.
As the tornado's edge neared Divine and his teammates, the wind became even more violent, threatening to push Racing Wolf off the road and into the swirling vortex.
Fatty's endurance and mana quantity were tested to their limits as he fought to keep the car stable. The winds howled and whipped against the bones and barriers protecting Racing Wolf and its occupants.
It almost seemed like the tornado was angry it could not destroy the stubborn ants in its domain.
Fatty groaned, grunted, and roared as the wind and the objects it carried hit the bones holding Racing Wolf.
Blood poured from his nose and eyes as he held his hands in a hand sign with a determined glint.
"I won't give up."
"I won't give up."
"I WON'T GIVE UP!!!!"
The faint mystic energy in the massive twister flashed, making it seem like it had accepted the challenge given to it by Fatty Black Bonez.
The roars of the winds became much louder, and its ferocity increased tremendously. The barriers around Racing Wolf broke apart, but Rosa, Divine, and Corey did not panic and made multiple barriers with a determined gaze.
They poured everything they had into the barriers, causing Racing Wolf to glow like a rainbow.
Corey could feel the air pressure dropping, and he knew they were getting dangerously close to the eye of the storm.
Just when he thought they could get a breather, something strange happened.
The eye of the storm shrank, and the pupils of Divine, Corey, and Rosa widened. Fear and horror appeared in their hearts, expressions, and souls.
But…
"I BESEECH YOU BONE GOD!! GRANT ME STRENGTH!!!"
Fatty Black Bonez roared, and a second later, his body glowed with a pale white light.
Corey, Rosa, and Divine felt a chill creep up their spines and souls as they looked at Fatty, who had a maniacal gaze as he looked at the twister around them.
"HAAAAA!!!!"
A thunderous roar escaped Fatty Black Bonez's lips, and in the next second, their comrade did something shocking.
"RISE!"
Fatty released a deep, ancient, and malevolent voice, and in the next moment, the bones around Racing Wolf became longer, raising Racing Wolf high up in the air.
"THROW!"
'Huh?'
'What?'
'Crap.'
The pupils of Rosa, Corey, and Divine widened, and before they could react, the bones around Racing Wolf gripped the car tightly, and then they threw Racing Wolf with so much force that they nearly breached the sound barrier.
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
