“The Night Lord - he’s back!” One of the female lycans screeched with happiness and almost knelt down on the ground: “He’s back!”
Whoever this “Night Lord” was, it was clearly an entity of worship to these lycans, as the team of Jason and Caroline could tell that many of them were showing similar intentions of kneeling before the reanimated four-winged bat creature.
The last drop of essence of the centipede creature, which was the remnant of the fallen god whose conduit was defeated by Jason back at the SJPD precinct, did not seem to have much control over the body of this four-winged bat creature yet, as it flapped its four wings and seemed to be struggling to stay stable in the air and almost bumped into the walls a few times. But this did not stop a few of the lycans that rushed into this hall from kneeling or even laying face down to show their faith in this “Night Lord”.
“No! Don’t!” Zack Dooms raised his voice with a frown on his half wolf half human face: “This is not the Night Lord!” Then he turned to Jason and Caroline and the Chavers: “Filthy humans, what did you do?”
“That’s not important, but the thing is - we should kill this - ” Jason shook his head, but before he could finish his sentence, the four-winged bat creature unleashed a low roar, which instantly gave them a really uneasy feeling all over their bodies and sick stomachs.
Both Aimee and Thomas coughed and almost fell to the ground, but they still held on and kept their moments of weakness to the minimum. The lycans on the other hand, encountered a completely different situation - the ones that knelt or laid down to show their faith and belief in the “Night Lord” glowed in a dim gray blue light, and one by one in rapid succession, their skins sunk into their bodies, their hairs grew gray and fell off and their eyes bulged out as streams of dim blue energy were pulled away from their bodies. For several moments, Jason and Laura could tell that these streams of dim blue energy showed themselves to be some kind of distorted shadows of the lycans.
“NOOOO!” Zack Dooms yelled in desperation and leapt into the air trying to stop one stream of this energy drained from a female lycan on his side, but the stream just passed through him with minimum hindrance from his body.
Caroline and Jason tossed out their spells at the four-winged bat creatures at the same time - Caroline’s spell turned into a condensed energy bolt made of her fire and wind Xuanli, while Jason’s turned into a silver round seal in the air that released a silver shockwave at the streams of dim blue energy. This silver shockwave did what Zack Dooms wanted but could not - it actually interacted with the streams and blasted them backwards, not entirely back to where they came from, but was close enough.
“Stand up! This is not the Night Lord! This is an imposter!” Zack Dooms carried the female lycan on his side up from her shoulders, which seemed to have helped her pull some of the energy back into her body: “Don’t offer your faith to it! Don’t!”
The four-winged bat creature screeched and flapped its wings harder than before in an attempt to dodge the bolt of energy fired by Caroline. But its limited control over the body did not help it at all, and the energy bolt still hit it right in the chest.

“Boom!” A massive explosion was triggered by this attack, and both the team of Jason and Caroline and the lycans were thrown backwards by the shockwave. The four-winged bat creature hit the ceiling from this attack, then fell onto the ground. But in this process, several streams of dim blue energy drained from the worshiping lycans still made it into its mouth.
“Bang bang!” Both Thomas and Aimee opened fire with their enchanted guns at the four-winged bat creature, but their bullets only left small scratches and tiny puncture holes on the creature’s thick fur and wing membranes. Even the special-issued gun of Thomas tailored to his power was only able to do slightly more but still unimpressive damage than Aimee’s standard-issued gun.
“Aaaah!” One of the lycans who did not kneel right away and therefore did not get his energy drained yelled in pain, as two of his fellow lycans who got their energy drained lunged at him and bit deep into his neck and left waist with their sharp and somehow poisoned fangs: “Help!”
“Stop them!” Zack Dooms cried in fury and frustration: “Stop them!”
Laura tossed an energy bolt at the four-winged bat creature, but a gray energy shield appeared right in front of its head and collided with the energy bolt. The energy shield was completely broken in a mere instant, but it did block off most of the explosive power of the energy bolt.
The lycans got into a fight of their own, as those among them that had their energy drained and became halfway mummified started attacking the rest of them as if they had been controlled and lost their minds. On the other hand, Jason and Caroline rushed to join in on the attack on the four-winged bat creature, as they could tell that though it was unfamiliar with the body, it was starting to get a hang of it, and the energy it drained from the lycans also seemed to be helping.
The four-winged bat creature’s body glowed in an ominous dim blue light, then it shot up into the air and flapped its wings at Caroline and Jason. Four crescent shaped energy blades were released shooting at them, and both of them had to break through using their weapons.
“Bang bang bang bang …” Thomas and Aimee continued firing but right now the bat creature had already gotten a hold of its energy, and a thin energy wall around it just simply blocked all of the enchanted bullets.
“Hehehehehe…” The four-winged bat creature finally stood up firm on the ground after some struggling: “Finally - a fitting godly body, soaked in energy and drenched in zealous faith.”
