Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

Atlan stared down at the Basilisk with a cold gaze.

With the power of the pure Angels in his wings, and the power of death coursing through his veins, Atlan was now a creature no one had ever seen before. He was both angel and devil, pure and monstrous.

The Basilisk thought it had come across a large clump of death energy ready to be consumed. But as it turned out, it was only a lure for him to be face to face with the very personification of death itself. Only he would end up as nourishment for this deathly demigod.

The Basilisk immediately spat out a cloud of poisonous smoke. He knew that this wouldn't have worked, but its only purpose was to distract Atlan enough for it to escape.

But of course, Atlan didn't get tricked by such things. He could see all kinds of death energy in the world, which meant that Canzers who emanate death would be visible to Atlan at all times. There was no hiding from him.

His body suddenly disappeared and reappeared just beneath the Basilisk's chin. He kicked upwards, sending the creature flying above, and through the cloud of poisonous smoke.

Kobra, Carmine, and the rest of the spectators suddenly watched as the Basilisk rose from the cloud of smoke.

They thought that it was finally going to attack them. But then, they noticed the dazed expression in its eyes. Not only that, there was a human by its side, with his hands reared back ready for a punch.

Atlan's fist suddenly glowed with a black energy fluctuation, with death energy concentrating in his very fist.

He punched the Basilisk's stomach upwards again, keeping it afloat in the air.

As soon as his fist touched the Basilisk's tough skin, its body started to convulse. After all, ominous death energy had suddenly been injected into its skin. And like poison, this death energy continued to spread throughout his body and infect healthy cells, turning them close to death.

The Basilisk was alarmed. It thought that it was immune to all kinds of poisons. However, Atlan's power was not poisonous. It was death itself, meaning that he held the power to turn anything into decay.

Atlan continued his assault on the Basilisk, juggling it in the air with a couple of well-placed attacks.

The crowd couldn't believe what they were seeing. A Basilisk, a Specialist-level Canzer, was being juggled by a mere Student-level Porter!

They couldn't believe it. Even Kobra himself wouldn't have been able to do this kind of feat even if the situation was beneficial to him.

"Is this real…"

"How is this possible? How is he this strong?...."

"Was he…was he always telling the truth?"

The crowd began to realize the dire mistake they had made when dealing with Atlan. They had always thought that he was lying to them about all the things he did in the Church mission.

They thought that he was simply embellishing his accomplishments to sound good to others. But now, after seeing his strength and power, dealing with the Basilisk as if it were a mere small lizard, they finally realized that he was telling the truth.

Atlan did have the power to kill a Specialist-level Canzer by himself.

This was a fact that they wouldn't have thought was possible. If someone else told them what they were seeing right now, they wouldn't have believed them. But, they were staring at the truth with their own eyes. They could feel the vibrations in the ground as Atlan punched the Basilisk's head into the ground, pounding it with more kicks and slams.

This was true. Atlan was beating a Specialist-level Canzer using his fists alone!

Finally, Carmine had an answer as to what had happened. Although Atlan told him about his exploits in the Church mission, there was still a part of him that didn't believe. But now, his curiosity had been sated. Atlan, somehow, had the power to kill a Basilisk!

Kobra was surprised as well. He knew that Atlan was no ordinary human being, but he would have never thought that he had hidden this kind of power.

He even found it unfair. After all, he built his power and strength through a thousand years of gruesome and risky work in the Remedium. But somehow, a Student-level Savior who hadn't even awakened less than a month ago had suddenly become a figure much stronger than he was.

But of course, in this situation, he was very grateful that Atlan had this kind of power to save them. He couldn't have done anything against a Basilisk, so it was fortunate that there was someone else they could rely on.

Meanwhile, Atlan kept on punching the Basilisk, filling its body with death energy that decayed its body. The black, shiny luster of its scales had soon turned into a grayish, dull, and cracking chitin. Stay tuned to My Virtual Library Empire

"Tell me. How did you move us to the Remedium without a portal!" Atlan threatened the Basilisk.

He wanted to inflict the most pain on the Basilisk to torture it into telling the truth. He wanted to find out how it was able to capture humans and bring them into the Remedium, or else this could happen again.

'Tsss… no… I will never betray our own!' the Basilisk screamed.

Just as its body was about to decay completely, its scales suddenly shot off from its own body and sunk deep into the flooring.

Then, the scales began to form and mutate into a slim worm, which began to grow exponentially larger, reaching the Basilisk's original size in just a few seconds.

Right now, there were hundreds of Basilisks spawned in the ground. Each of them showed disdain and anger for Atlan.

'You cannot kill me tsss… you kill one, three more will spawn in its place tss..!'

As it turned out, the Basilisk was an Infection-type Canzer, meaning that it could clone itself infinitely.

This alarmed Carmine and the rest of the civilians. With hundreds of Basilisks, they would soon be surrounded by those creatures with no other way to escape.

They thought that Atlan was strong enough to fight with one Basilisk, but wasn't strong enough to fight against hundreds of them at the same time.
