Chapter 1812: Fighting Riot

Clang!

The crisp sound of metal colliding rang out in the living room.

Luke slowly drew back his blade. “Then you have to be faster.”

Pa!

A silver-gray tip fell to the ground. Riot, who had already possessed Ryoko Tamiya’s body, screamed in pain, but didn’t give up as its tentacles swung out.

At the same time, the silver-gray tip turned into a silver-gray liquid which returned to its feet and body.

Clan

Agony’s blue skin coupled with Haley’s looks was passable, but its fangs were too sharp.

Venom was a tar monster. Not only was it ugly, it didn’t have any hair.

The dog head didn’t have any hair either.

On the other hand, Agony had long, thick hair.

That made Luke wonder if the dog head and Venom were long lost brothers.

It wasn’t until he saw Riot’s head now in the complete symbiotic state that he was basically sure of one thing — the symbiotes generally truly didn’t have any hair.

Riot’s appearance lowered the bar for symbiote looks once more.

Not only was this guy bald, its entire body was bumpy all over and not smooth at all.

If that silver-gray skin was black like Venom, it would look even more like a toad.

However, the toad in front of Luke was clearly smart and not to be trifled with. Many key parts of its body had spikes that ranged from a few centimeters to a dozen centimeters in length. It looked fierce.

So, this was actually… a poisonous toad? This was a disservice to its host, Ryoko Tamiya.

The high school teacher’s looks and temperament could pique the interest of some nerds who liked the mature type.

A lot of ridiculous thoughts flashed through Luke’s mind in less than two seconds.

His brain was just that fast after his Mental Strength exceeded 40.

On the other side, Riot swelled up again, not just physically, but also in terms of its senses.

After it stood up, it roared and shot a dozen or so spikes at Luke.

Luke, on the other hand, was a little disappointed. Shouldn’t the boss do something big after a roar like that? This little trick was boring!

He was too lazy to move. He simply turned slightly, and four or five spikes flew past his chest without making contact at all.

The moment the spikes shot out, three tentacles attacked from above and both sides.

Luke frowned. “That’s all you can do? Then you’re going to die here today.”

As soon as he said that, the katana on his shoulder exploded with a dazzling silver light that enveloped the three tentacles.

The three tentacles suddenly stopped and shattered into pieces.

Riot threw out more spikes as it started to retreat.

This time, Luke didn’t even bother to dodge. He simply flicked his left hand.

With a clatter, he flicked away four or five darts.

A dozen tentacles suddenly shot out of Riot’s body. Their tips were no longer like the edges of a sharp knife, but the simplest of cones, which stabbed at Luke from all directions.

The katana danced around Luke to block the tentacles.

At that moment, a tentacle that had just been cut off slithered back toward Riot’s body.

Luke suddenly sped up and appeared in front of Riot, pressing a palm to its chest.

A very scant amount of Elementary Annihilation spread out to cover the front of Riot’s upper torso.

Riot instantly sensed the destructive energy and screamed in fear as it directly pulled away from Tamiya’s back.

The Annihilation energy seized the opportunity to wrap around Tamiya and prevent Riot from returning to her body.

If Luke had known that Riot would be here tonight, he wouldn’t have given it a chance to combine with Ryoko Tamiya. After all, she was a very important ‘tool.’

He was even more reluctant to kill Riot.

Of the five symbiotes that came to Earth, three could be considered to have been ‘recruited’ by Luke. Only Riot and the missing Shriek could potentially be used for research. It would be a shame to kill them right away.
