Demon Hunter: I have a red gourd

Chapter 82 It’s almost time
Not very harmful, but very insulting.

Brian had become a giant, and even if Ivan punched him hard in the face, it would not cause him any harm.

However, it only made his already cloudy brain even angrier.

His eyes were wide open, bloodshot, and he let out a deafening roar, the sound seemed to shatter the air around him.

Then he swung his arm like a giant pillar and smashed it down towards Ivan madly. The strong wind it brought up was like a substance that cut people's skin.

Ivan dodged easily without any panic.

This is his real purpose.

Brian's sanity was almost completely lost. If he added more fuel to the fire, the giant would turn into a beast that could not think, and he could then manipulate him at will.

Warlocks who study genetic engineering often propose the hypothesis of transforming humans into giants. For example, Sorel Dagerund, assistant to the legendary warlock Ortolan, once said this:

"They used to say, if you could take an ordinary, short human and turn him into a giant, make him stronger, able to work twenty-four hours a day, never get sick, and live to be a hundred years old, why wouldn't you do it?"

However, for decades, even the Risberg Group, a civil partnership that has deeply studied biotechnology and is committed to promoting magic to all mankind, has not made any in-depth progress in this research.

Unexpectedly, the warlocks of Nilfgaard actually got there first and realized this idea.

However, after Ivan observed Brian for a period of time, it was obvious that their experiment had major flaws.

Although Brian's body expanded rapidly and his strength increased dramatically in a short period of time, his current body seemed unable to withstand this powerful force.

On the surface of Brian's skin, blue veins bulged out like a twisted dragon, and blood vessels protruded, looking like they would burst at any time; the muscles in his body were constantly twisting and trembling, and his bones seemed to be under tremendous pressure, making a "cracking" sound.

Furthermore, the biggest change was in his sanity. In the past, Brian's eyes had always gleamed with cunning and wisdom, like a sinister cat, but now they were filled with madness and pain, leaving only a blood-red glow.

If it weren't for the faint blue light that occasionally emerged from his body, his body would have collapsed and shattered long ago.

The blue light on his body was very similar to that of the griffin that Ivan had encountered before, but the intensity was incomparable.

The blue light on the griffin was dazzling and dazzling, and it could even be condensed to launch long-range attacks from its mouth. However, the blue light on Brian was vague and dim, clearly a poorer version of the poor.

The blue light on Brian's body has become increasingly dim. Ivan can reasonably suspect that Brian cannot maintain this state for much longer, and that the blue light is not enough to support his resurrection after death.

Looking at the giant whose eyes were as red as burning charcoal, whose mouth emitted bursts of beast-like roars, whose body exuded a violent aura and whose anger was almost crazy due to loss of control, Ivan had already thought of two solutions in his mind.

The first was to transform into Guangzhi, take the last Fuhu Pill, and confront the giant head-on. With the bonus of Fuhu Pill, even if Brian turned into a giant, his strength would definitely not be comparable to Guangzhi's after the bonus.

But this approach was too risky. Regardless of the fact that there was only one Fu Hu Wan left, it would be better to save it for the next time he needed to save his life.

Even if Guangzhi killed the giant, if Ivan misjudged the situation, the mysterious blue light on Brian would still grant him the ability to resurrect, and his own Guangzhi incarnation would likely be exposed, a consequence Ivan could never accept. The second option was to engage with the giant for a while, patiently waiting for the mysterious blue light to dissipate on its own, and then his body would disintegrate and die naturally.

Although Brian had grown in size and strength, his speed and agility had greatly decreased compared to before. His massive body made him move awkwardly, the ground shaking with every step he took, and his turns and arm swings were also very slow. For Ivan, dodging his attacks was not too difficult.

Even if Brian's condition was permanent and irreversible, Ivan could continue to provoke him, causing him to lose his mind, and then use his speed advantage to lure him into the corridor behind. He could then return and calmly leave the ruins through the exit.

As for what happens next, leave it to the elves.

Soon, he chose the second option.

As Brian swung his arms wildly at him, Ivan dodged with his agility like a black phantom. He cleverly used the surrounding stone pillars and ruins as cover, always maintaining a safe distance from Brian.

Each of Brian's attacks was powerful, either hitting the ground and raising a large amount of dust, or smashing the stone pillars into pieces and sending rocks flying, but he could never touch Ivan at all.

Ivan dodged while keeping his eyes on the faint blue light on Brian's body. As time passed, the blue light became weaker and weaker as he expected.

At the same time, Brian's physical condition was rapidly deteriorating. His breathing began to become more and more rapid and heavy, rising and falling like a bellows, and every gasp was accompanied by a painful groan.

Cracks began to appear on his skin, and blood oozed out of the cracks, dripping onto the ground.

Brian seemed to have noticed the changes in his body. His attacks began to become more and more crazy and chaotic, and the roars from his mouth were full of fear and unwillingness.

"It's about time."

Ivan looked coldly at the giant struggling in despair in front of him, without a trace of pity in his heart.

"Brian, you've done so many evil things, and you deserved such a painful death today."

Brian was completely enraged by Ivan's words. He rushed towards Ivan regardless of everything, his huge body like a chariot out of control.

Ivan seized the opportunity and dodged behind a huge rock. Brian's mind was no longer able to think. The giant he transformed into slammed into the rock hard, and the rock shattered into pieces instantly. He himself was also dizzy and his body shook a few times.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ivan quickly went around to the giant's feet, pulled out the steel sword behind him, and with a flick of his wrist, he directly cut the tendons of the giant's two legs.

With two dull "pop" sounds, Brian's hamstrings were severed, and his huge body could no longer support him. He fell to his knees with a "thump", raising a cloud of dust.

At this moment, the mysterious blue light that had been lingering around Brian began to dissipate rapidly, gradually dimming like a candle in the wind.

As the blue light dissipated, Brian's body began to undergo strange changes. His originally huge body began to shrink rapidly, and his muscles and bones seemed to be collapsing inward.

Before long, there was only a thing left on the ground that looked completely like no human. It lay there twisted and exuded a disgusting odor.
