I'm a Stingray?

Chapter 157: North problems (2)

The very coral that was unlucky enough to be struck, shattered in 3 big chunks thanks to that very hole of which the little Snoopy had caused. Such a situation was tremendously difficult to stand, especially when the same stingray came back in one piece.

Timothy couldn't help giving a contemplative glare, how could this be more confusing than death? The first thing he managed to utter was, "What the hell is going on?"

His brother carried the same shocked facial expression with another firm hint of worry. And the answer he could come up with was. "I don't know..."

Haze was one of the toughest so she was the second to arise after that episode of traumatic pain. This little lady didn't carry any confusion or worry in her eyes, but just anger and vengeful intents towards the blobfish that had already been destroyed in battle.

Unlike her brother, she didn't change in appearance whatsoever. But what this lady unleashed in a split second was enough to shock anyone for life, simply because of how unusual it was.

With a simple glance against a patch of coral, the conscious siblings noticed how the very coral began breaking down in all directions. It unleashed a loud creak that most definitely managed to pierce the ear.

It became difficult to understand what was going on. Small chunks had shot out from the coral in all directions and then bigger chunks fell down and caused a little rumble against the ground.

The coral patch was broken down in a thousand pieces and from the looks of it, a glare against the same coral was enough to cause such colossal damage. But that fact regardless, this little lady doesn't seem to be surprised and instead behaves superior above the power and the target she demolished.

Such an attitude was a tad intimidating but these siblings are used to her so they don't really mind it. Before any more questions could be asked, Philip managed to get himself together too but seemed to have changed in appearance just a little.

The boy's body colour was coated with a hint of green, which was heavily noticeable considering that his former colour mostly contained yellow along with blue dots spread around. By now it was clear that the holy-tar like gooey substance had caused these drastic changes and seemingly gave powers too. But how could this be possible? There are thousands of fish who were in the holy-tar sect yet neither of them had powers!

It was tremendously confusing but Philip had an urge to demonstrate his powers as well. With a foot-long burst forward, a colourless form that represented a shark's mouth had shot forward and clashed against a big patch of coral. By now it felt a bit funny to unleash all this rage on coral but it was sure as hell great for target practice.

The colourless shark-bite that formed was 6 feet long and just a couple of feet wide. Bizarre at least but the damage it unleashed against the coral was tremendous! Such colourless power-move behaved like a vicious bite, but the damage it had unleashed was super clean.

A massive chunk was bitten off and then pulled across the sand nearby. But when looking at the rest of the coral, it seems as if someone had taken appropriate measurements for the bite to be perfectly sliced in a vertical matter. Tremendously powerful but understanding just how the hell this was possible, felt difficult.

"I think we got powers." Philip pointed out the obvious and the conscious siblings wanted to smack the boy behind the head. It was obvious that they got powers and hearing such a sentence was more head-wrecking than trying to figure this out.

But yet neither of them said anything ill-manered and awaited for Patty to awaken. And she did not let them dwell on worries, although technically she was the last one to wake up after such tremendous pain.

No one had to speak anything because the process was already subconsciously understood by now. These stingrays simply woke up and had an urge to demonstrate their powers so it was likely that Patty would do the same.

And the little lady didn't fail to disappoint. Within a blink, her barb barged upwards and then forwards, which in exchange unleashed a set of 3 barbs; that were moving in a pace fast enough to disclude water as a friction-causing obstacle.

Three barbs shot against coral and the impact unleashed a screech that felt equal to the shot having landed on their ear holes. These barbs had pierced the patch of coral but didn't stop there.

They had broken through the other side of the patch and halted still after impaling half-way through the other patch of coral. There was no doubt that such a power-move was tremendously powerful.

And now seemed like the best way to talk, Timothy asked. "Just what the hell is going on here? How did that weird tar give you all powers?"

It was not that he carried jealousy but these abilities seem dangerous enough to be life threatening. What if they have side-effects as powerful as these power-moves? Thoughts of that sort were so difficult to stomach, he had just started building a bond with these siblings.

These stingrays were all too stunned for words. Although some were more confident than others, they were completely uninformed of why this had happened. Since they were silent, the system used the opportunity to pitch an idea.

[Bite your sister]

"What? Why?" Tim asked, unwilling to even think of how inappropriate that would be.

[Bite your sister and I might be able to give information of what could be causing this]

Uncertain of how to put this into words, he glanced at one of his sisters and muttered an idea. "Look, I have these weird senses that allow me to figure out more stuff about an animal once I bite them. Maybe it will work here, it won't be a powerful bite, Haze."
