Multi-Gene

A cold light flashed within the Two-Clawed Mutant Pigeon\'s eyes.

Skree!

It let out a high-pitch cry and its wings suddenly trembled. Although the holes in its body was bleeding prefusel, the Monster didn\'t seem to care as it set its eyes on the ship whose figure was about to disappear onto the horizons.

The reddish-orange glow seem to spread from its eyes to its wings and the surrounding clouds tumbled and rolled as though there was something summoning them.

Its body seem to absorb the surrounding clouds and then, with a single flap of its wings the air behind the beast trembled and minute bits of clouds were blasted from its back, propelling it forwards like it was a booster in itself.

It had instantly activated its Skill without caring for its price at this moment.

Cloud Blast!

The bird was immediately propelled forwards and with a single flap of its wings, the gap between the Two-Clawed Mutant Pigeon and the Skycruiser immediately shortened.

Since Steve had the helmet on, his vision was a whole 360 wide and he could see every thing happening within a radius of half a kilometer. He noticed the beast closing in on them, he cursed their luck and he accelerated the Cruiser forwards as it pierced through the clouds like a dragon with terrifying speed.

David and the other students held on to their seats as the Cruiser moved through the air, trembling like a roller coaster.

Although David wasn\'t aware of what was going on, it didn\'t take a genius to understand that they were under attack.

The other students were also able to deduce the facts as they leaned tightly on their seats.

But David wasn\'t the least bit worried, since the institute had dared to take them out for the competition, they surely possess a few methods to protect them from harm.

Sure enough, as Steve was about to activate the Quantum Energy at 120%, a sigh sounded out from the corner of the control cabin.

Steve\'s subordinates instantly quietened their chatter as an a middle-aged man sttod up from the Retractable chair he was sleeping in.

"Boy Steve, no need to waste the energy core of the ship. Open the panoramic." The midde-aged man asaid in a low tone.

"Yes, Mr Smith." Steve replied and he halted the movement of the Cruiser. Pressing a button, a hatch which was a meter wide opened at the top of the control cabin.

Suddenly, there was te sounds of bones cracking as a muffled groan rang out. It as from Mr Smith.

He groaned as two large pairs of wings emerged from his back, still dripping with the bodily fluids in his body.

The wings were thin and leathery, similar to a bat wings. The wings was almost two meters long and was as black as ink while the joints formed a few pair of hooked claw like sharp bone blades.

Thump!

With a light stomp of his feet, his body moved forwards like lightning and the claws of his wings caught onto the edges of the hole as he catapulted forwards, through the panoramic on the roof. His movements, untraceable as he disappeared into the air.

Upon seeing this, Steve quickly flipped a switch.

Suddenly, the Sky Cruiser walls shimmered, as though a glitch had been discovered and then, with a shua sound, the exterior walls of the ship seemed to have turned completely transparent as those who were inside of the it could practically see through the walls, having a view of the outside world.

The students eyes opened wide in surprise. It was a shocking sight to behold. The clouds were practically visible to see, drifting. It wasn\'t that they weren\'t aware that such technology existed, and infact, they had heard about such things.

It was the fact that the technology was a very expensive piece of equipment to procure and was rare. They hadn\'t expected to see one so soon.

David was also surprised as he couldn\'t comprehend what was happening. He could really see the clouds drifting and tumbling through the walls of the Ship.

While it might have looked like magic, it was in fact just a piece of finely connected cameras , placed in a special matrix around specific points of the SkyCruiser, until it covered its whole exterior.

The gadget would then receive the projected data which is in a video format, and then projecting them towards the interior in a holographic image which covered the entire interior of the skycruiser. The whole effect would look as though the walls of the Cruiser had turned transparent.

But as he was deep in though, something instantly caught his eyes amidst the clouds.

He caught sight a huge beast almost three meters long. The beast had the head of a pigeon but beak as sharp as a sword.

Feathers and wings just like that of a normal Pigeon but instead of the soft and fluffy feathers of a bird, it was instead a hard and flexible rows of grey scales that covered it\'s entirety of its body. Looking as though it was as hard as steel itself.

With its long snake like tail that lashed around randomly like a mad whip.

Its most prominent features were it\'s talons. While a normal bird of prey had about five claws and at least three claws, this beast had only two claws.

But, the two claws was its strongest point, its nail long and very sharp, looking like two curved scythe from hell. was its most terrifying weapon.

David was dumbfounded and he doubtfully thought to himself \'Isn\'t that a pigeon.\' he blinked his eyes but, the beast was still the same.

A pigeon that had evolved from its previously weak form to a more stronger form.

But in the next second, there was a sudden flap of wings. Entirely different from the previous set of flaps coming from the Two-Clawed Mutant Pigeon.

Shifting their gazes, the student saw a middle aged man with wings almost two meters long, appeared before the Mutant Pigeon in a ghost like manner.

Obviously stunned, the Two-Clawed Mutant Pigeon let out a sudden shriek and flapped it its wing in a panic, trying to move backwards.

This was the first time it had experienced Someone getting close to it with a speed it\'s eyes couldn\'t discern.

Whoosh!

A sound akin to ones flesh been sliced rang out and a blinding silvery white lights flashed from the middle age man\'s position.

His wings flapped rapidly and his body moved as two steel blades seem to have for appeared out of no where onto his hands.

His body moved and no one as able to discern its position, in a split second, his body strangely passed through the Two-Clawed Mutant Pigeon as he reappeared at the flank of the Bird.

But his posture was wierd as his hand which held onto the blades was raised. A few drops of blood could be seen on the face of the swords.

Suddenly, the Mutant Beasts body shivered and immediately, it burst into several chunks of meat. Blood, guts and fluides flooded the entire sky. And the body parts

One strike, the man had used just one strike to finish off an Evolved Beast which was also almost very close to reaching the Orange glow, already very close to peaking the red state.

It was almost impossible to comprehend, Leaving the crowds of students in awe.

Seeing as the Beast was dead, the ship continued on its way to the map.

David kept thinking about the middle aged Man.

He had concluded that it was a power house who had being assigned there to protect them from any unexpected or unforseen circumstances.

Breaking his chain of thoughts, a soft voice rang out to the students three hours after the flight

"We would reach the destinations soon, get ready. " it wasn\'t the raspy and cold voice of captain Steve, it was aone of the crew members.

Uoom hearing her words, the students instantly readied themselves as they circulated their blood and combat technics while still seated in the seat they had been assigned to.

David also circuits his blood and small amount of slightly visible heat waves could be seen from his body.

Meanwhile, captain Steve replied to his subordinate as he asked. "Are we already situated at the center if the map?"

"Not yet but we will be there in a few minute, I just confirmed that sir. " she replied while sfil seated in her chair.

"Hmm, is that so. Release them already. I\'ve wasted enough time with them as it is. "

She looked upwards at the standing Captain Steve up from her seat and she replied worriedly "Will that be okay, won\'t that just be unfair to some of them due to the distance . "

Waving his hands dismissively, he replied. "We are almost there anyway, a few kilometers won\'t matter, make the drop.. " Steve replied as his tone grew sinister as his expression was expectant.
