A mournful screech escaped the old man corpse's mouth and then, in a split second the shaking came to a stop as the body flopped back down, lying still on the floor.
As though not satisfied, David kicked the corpse hard five times and when he didn't receive any response, he let out the breathe he was had been holding.
He had truly killed the old man this time. David had guessed this sort of thing would happen which was why he had taken action as soon as he had woken up.
Every single Spryher has a foreign organ implanted into their bodies in strengthens the blood vessels, veins, heart, organs, meridians, bones and muscles.
The orga was basically a second heart for a Spryher.
But those organs had been specially prepared and created with the uses of different evolved beast's materials and genomes by the people of the Genetic Association.
But no matter how clean the organ might be or how concentrated the purification process might had been used, the organ would still contain the 'Stains' of the previous evolved beast's genome they had been prepared with.
Stains are the characteristics and triats or as one might call it, the berserk behavior contained in the organ transplanted into a Spryher.
And it was almost impossible to purify the stains off the organ completely no matter how concentrated the regent used in purifying the modified organ is.
After a period of time, those stains would gradually develop to form a personality if not taken care of which would then attack the body in an attempt to kill off the original consciousness in the body every once in a while.
They call this process, The Backlash. It was the final backlash and counterattack of the beast being killed and used.
Which was why Spryhers used a specific type of serum in order to slowly cleanse the stain present in the body.
And after a period of time, it would no longer be a problem to them.
In the old man's case, he had been frozen in the Cryogenic Pod for a long period of time. It was no doubt that the 'stain' in his body had long since developed a personality, just waiting for a good opportunity to take control of the body.
In a normal circumstance, everything wouks be over as soon as the old man had died, the personality should be dead too.
But the gene path the oldman had modified for himself was the Vampire gene, a true Man Of Myth and even though it wasn't the true vampire gene, they still had connections with each other.
A true vampire wouldn't die due to poison, they were already dead. So killing them by dealing their bodies lethal wounds was completely useless. With their rapid regeneration, it was completely a waste to poison them.
As long as they had enough blood, they could endlessly regenerate.
They can only be killed by removing or puncturing their hearts or by completly cutting off their heads.
Although the old man had been a false Vampire, the fact that he was close to building the true genetic map of a true Vampire means that he would at least develop an ability.
As a Phaser, their main source of power was from arranging genes and modifying them according to the genetic map of a particular bloodline.
For example, after choosing to advance from a Spryher to a Phaser, one would need to start selecting the genes they had chosen to merge with.
A Red-Scale Cheetah main feature is pure speed.
For a Spryher who had chosen to major in speed, the Red-scale Cheetah is a very common path to take, not to talk of the very cheap price at acquiring the genetic makeup or Genetic Map of the beast.
The Genetic Map of a Red-Scaled Cheetah includes slitted eyes that could see through far distances and could vaguely detect radiation. (All Evolved beast could vaguely see or sense radiation. It's an innate ability gained after evolution.)
Streamed line body Cheetahs have distinctive red spots and dull red, tear-shaped stripes that stretch from the inner corner of each eye to the mouth. They have huge rounded heads, long necks, deep chests,assuve muscles and dangerously sharp claws that are non-retractable.
The legs of the Red-scaled cheetah are long, slim and very muscular. These factors allow the Evolved beast to travel at exceptionally fast rates of speed.
The special thick pads on their large paws help create traction for the beast.
The Red-scaled cheetahs can run at full speed for over long distances, not minding the dangers of overheating.
Despite their speed ability, the red-scale cheetah has an amazingly strong jaw that could clamp hard at anything it grasps with its teeth.
After the genetic modification had reached a specific amount of completion, the Phaser would then begin to develop different kinds of special ability that is deep within the bloodlines of the beast they had chosen to be modified with.
For example, an ordinary Two-star talented Phaser with 30% completion rate could develop an ability, if they had chosen had selected the red-scaled cheetah genetic map as their path or bloodline.
Now, the ability developed would vastly vary, it might be a useless ability and it might also be a useful one but, there truly isn't an ability one would call useless. It is just that the uses haven't been found as of yet.
A Red-scaled Cheetah would begin to develop abilities after they had crossed the Black haze stage, over to the Brown daze stage.
The Speed Burst ability is one which would vastly increase their speed for a short period of time due to the dangers of overheating.
A Phaser developing the Speed Burst ability of the Red-scale cheetah is a very common trend, which makes ait a very common ability.
A Phaser with stronger body that could endure the overheating would definitely be a genius amongst his or her peers. But to gain stronger body, one's blood revolution as a Spryher must definitely be high.
Now, a genius with a three would instead develop an ability when he or she had reached 25% completion and even in some rare cases, they would develop the ability at 20% completion rate.
Completion rate simply means the total amount of likeness the Phaser had modified himself with the beast's genetic map.
