《Poison City》Book 2 Chapter 53. Circumstances (Part 4)
Advertisement
Standing mostly straight where he was, Gyuu Park stared back at the creatures that remained in the docks area. They were still mostly humanoid, some were made of two humans fused together, some were just single humans that showed signs of corruption and mutation.
Now that he had a good chance to get a clear look at the creatures, Gyuu Park could tell that they were definitely human spirits, unfortunate and miserable victims from the past. It was not easy to tell how they died exactly, for their bodies and figures were all corrupted by prolonged exposure to the water and heavily Yin environment.
And when he looked more intently, he could not help but notice all of these creatures had some kind of rope or chains connecting their bodies to something under the water. This was the first time he got this close a look at the unclean entities at the docks, and it was the first time he noticed this.
After thinking for a while. Gyuu Park decided to push himself and see if he could take a much closer look at one of the creatures and see if he could find anything.
Green Qi covered all major parts of his body, some portion of it got concentrated on the edge of his palms. Then with a loud roar, Gyuu Park launched himself at the creature closest to him.
This creature was one that was made of two humans stuck together back to back. A man was under, with his two arms and one broken leg supporting the weight; a woman was above lying face up, chest cavity exposed and two arms bent backwards to the front, her fingers extended and nails sharp, like two additional appendages primed for attack.
“Give us our child back! Give us our child back!” The two humans cried at the same time, while their mouths opened wide, revealing their sharp, crooked and heavily weathered teeth, and tongues that were freakishly long and covered in bristles. The man pushed his arms against the ground and launched themselves into the air, facing Gyuu Park’s attack head on.

“Die in my stead! “ “Drown in my stead!” Two more creatures, one made of a single half a person and the other made of a person with another head embedded in the chest cavity lunged at Gyuu Park from the side.
Gyuu Park’s hands drew two half circles in the air. Then with a brief moment of preparation, he launched two palm strikes with both his hands - one at the main creature he was targeting, and the other at the other two that tried to join in.
“Boom!” The Qi concentrated on his left palm exploded before the palm strike landed on anything, green shards made of solidified Qi blasted at the two creatures like a high caliber shotgun from point blank range.
The two creatures screamed and gurgled as they were thrown back into the air. The shards tore at least a dozen holes on both of their bodies, shredding some thinner and weaker parts of them into tiny pieces that smoked, ashed and dissipated in the night air.
The right palm strike, on the other hand, emitted a heavy crushing wave of energy that crashed against the creature made of two humans stitched together back-to-back. This creature was much more hardened and solid than the other two, yet it was not able to move forward with its attack and was pushed onto the ground. The ground cracked, pellets of cement popped into the air. The right palm strike was visibly more powerful than the left, and the propulsion of which lifted Gyuu Park’s body up slightly.
Gyuu Park’s body spun in the air riding the force. Then he held both his palms together, combining the residual Qi from the attacks. A thin, round and spinning green blade of Qi formed in the space between the palms. Just when the blade reached a high enough speed, he unleashed it towards the ground, aiming at the space behind the creature he just shoved into the ground below.

The creature was paralyzed by the impact for the moment. It tried to break free, but some kind of special energy seeped into its body and prevented it from making any kind of move. Its body was made of mostly pure Yin energy and foul, corrosive and corrupting Qi, and this energy from Gyuu Park’s palm strike was especially destructive and effective against it.
The sound of spinning saw cutting metal objects exploded from the impact between the spinning Qi blade and the chain made of aqua weeds. Glistening, thick and dark liquids spew out from the cut, and a foul smell arose, almost making Gyuu Park faint.
This seemed to have caused greater pain to the creature than the palm strike of his Qi. A throaty, desperate and hysterical scream shot out of its exposed and damaged chest cavities, and its limbs shook and twitched uncontrollably on the ground, hitting the ground repeatedly like chaotic drumsticks.
Gyuu Park’s ears hurt from the high-pitched scream, his heart rates were elevated, his breathing pattern became irregular, and he felt the Qi flow in his meridians was disrupted to the brink of loss of control - anymore, and he could suffer severe internal damage from overflow of Qi from his ruptured meridians.
He had to immediately back off from the creatures when he landed on the ground, trying to stabilize his flow of Qi, and to calm himself down after hearing that scream. This gave the creature a chance to struggle against the energy that seeped into its body and was suppressing it. Right in front of Gyuu Park’s eyes, the creature started off being able to move two of its front legs, and later it could even shake its main part of the body.
Gyuu Park felt like cursing again, but he decided not to so that he could concentrate his breaths and his mind on stabilizing his Qi and getting himself back to fight ready state. His Qi circulated in his meridians, soothing his tense muscles, slowing down his racing heart and pulses, and relieving the pain in his ears and back.
The thick liquid that dripped on the ground from the wound on the chains started smoking, releasing small clouds of dark particles that buzzed around like hordes of mosquitoes or flies.
They were not flies, they were not mosquitoes. When Gyuu Park narrowed his eyes, he could tell that these were actually tiny drops of liquid, changing sizes and shaking around.
“Give us our child back! ” This creature crawled up and screamed at Gyuu Park once again: “Give us our child back! ”
