I have Nine Lives

Shima's face was so dark, he almost looked like he swallowed a fly, but the situation was way worse for him, he had to pay for the death of 30 people and that would mean his salary would be withheld for atleast 2 years! That was because he had to take care of their families as well, with the money he got from his salary he could have easily paid for the funerals with around half of his monthly income.

"Now you shall come with me and take you dissection patiently unless you want me to cripple you before."

Felix sneered as his white aura appeared, his breathing changed as he entered the breathing combat mode, his hair started to stand on end while his eyes turned emerald, he had decided to go for broke!

"Since there is no way out and you decided to be like this I shall make my own way out!"

"Foolish!"

Shima threw away his lab coat as he flexed his muscles, his brown tail was moving aggressively behind him as a deep purple aura engulfed him:

"I shall sever your legs so you can never run away again!"

Felix felt a strong wind nearing his four legs, he jumped up instinctively barely dodging the wind blade that Shima used without even moving an inch of his body!

Some of his hair was cut and dropped to the white floor below.

Felix disappeared as he employed his stealth technique and started to circle Shima only for him to feel a deadly attack approaching from all directions!

His killing intent detection wasn't lying to him, the air around him was practically trying to kill him!

"Being able to control the air transforming it into a killing ability?"

Felix found it rather hard to stomach such a broken ability as the air was everywhere in existence if you didn't count the void.

Air spikes transformed into a prison that wanted to skewer him in nonvital places and keep him trapped but Felix used his body to go through two spikes at the edges of the prison trading an injury for escaping, blood flew down his body turning his stealth technique useless.

He appeared in front of Shima who shook his head:

"You are lucky we need you alive or I would have made you lose all your lives up till now."

Felix gritted his teeth, he didn't want to be experimented upon nor dissected, he thought that no one would want that, especially because it was against his will and Shima was continuously going against him.

"Grit your teeth as much as you want but that won't stop my scalpel from slicing your chest open."

Shima appeared in front of Felix as he made a claw with his hand trying to grab him from the nape of his neck and paralyze him again, Felix's muscles hardened to an immense degree as he blocked the attack barely, even though his nerves hadn't been touched his hardened muscles deflated like a balloon as they took the whole damage from the claw attack.

Felix could feel so much pain going through the nervous system that he wanted to shout and roll on the floor but he knew that this wasn't the time for that so he endured as best as he could as he tried to dodge or block another attempt at being captured.

It was harder to capture someone alive than killing them so Shima was getting rather annoyed at Felix's attempts of escaping.

It was getting to the point that he wondered if it would be worth analyzing a corpse instead of a living body, he even started to mutter:

"Oh how would I break your soul but it's quite strong and protected by the divine realm..."

Another strength of God's chosen was that they were more enduring against mental attacks and their souls couldn't be destroyed, that was also one of the reasons Wu Xiao couldn't do much against Felix, they were just a bad matchup.

Felix decided to fight it out with him with his ultimate move!

Dark hex energy converged to his claws as they lengthened and sharpened, his eyes narrowed as he disappeared from view, his broken muscles started to cry in pain for being overused but he pushed through the pain and attacked!

Shima put his right hand over his left and leaned in a bit waiting for Felix's attack.

The moment Felix's claw was nearing Shima's neck he launched his left hand forward and grabbed him by the paw before launching a kick with his right leg directly hitting him in the face and breaking his head open.

Blood flowed freely from Felix's head as he felt his brain shake, even though his skull had cracked only blood flowed from his head, and no brain matter.

Felix felt scared... this was the first time someone countered his ultimate technique and it was so clean to boot!

"Surprised? Actually, if you landed that move on me you might have injured me but considering how obvious your attack pattern is, it was quite easy to counter."

Felix deflated like a balloon as his body started to glow again however this time Shima was prepared and he immediately hit him again on the neck hitting a nerve and making him unconscious, it was better than paralyzing him as there was a chance he would find a way to self destruct again.

Then he grabbed him by the neck and shouted:

"I have caught CSP all return to your work after you clean away the corpses of our colleagues, send the bill for all of the funeral items to my account."

Shima sighed as he thought about his colleague then decided to experiment alone on Felix.

Even though he wanted them to learn something from the dissection experience it was too dangerous for them, he was the only military scientist left in the facility after the others followed the army off-world.

Shima entered a sterile room and pressed his foot on a small button on the floor, out of the floor a white operating table came out and Shima put Felix on it, along with the table came quite a lot of sharp instruments and tanks filled with unknown substances and gases.

He hooked a transparent mask to one of the gas tanks and put it over Felix's face while saying:

"Wakey wakey, I did say that you would have to experience the pain you have inflicted on my poor colleagues."

Felix woke up groggily his whole body hurt like hell from fighting with Shima and there was no time for him to heal himself up.

"Ok, now that you woke up it's time for the main course."

Shima took a scalpel from the table full of sharp instruments and started with a small incision on Felix's chest, Felix could feel the whole thing happening and it wasn't a pleasant experience at all, the pain from being cut open was rather uncomfortable but it wasn't as bad as he thought it would be, he endured way worse pains before.

"Your pain enduring threshold is rather high but this is only the entree, we shall start with a small incision here and we will move further later... you shall see."

Shima already had a surgical mask on his face along with transparent protection goggles when Felix woke up, it was rather scary but Felix endured, at this point, he was too injured to move and he was paralyzed from the waist down meaning he could only move the upper part of his body.

As the butchering of his body went further and further the pain he experienced amplified along with the fact that Shima was getting to his internal organs, the mask that was pumping that gas into him was tied tightly to his mouth and the gas that was being pumped increased in quantity the more he was being cut into, it seemed the gas was there to make him stay awake and also increase his pain receptors sensibility very slowly.

Felix didn't even have the strength to grith his teeth anymore at this point, actually, the pain wasn't even that bad anymore, his eyes started to close as the last image he saw was Shima toying with his heart and internal organs.

Felix woke up suddenly, he didn't know why but when his body regenerated he remained unconscious it was rather strange, as he looked into the corner of his eyes he saw 7 heads left meaning that he didn't die further after he died on the operating table.

He looked around and he found himself in a clean cell, the black bars were dividing him from the other room and there was a bit of food left in a bowl near him.

"Now I'm a prisoner?"

The feeling of being experimented on still paled compared to falling to the fiery fire and dying but he already gets used to those so he didn't feel much from being experimented on, he just didn't want his secrets to be found out nor did his abilities to be shared with someone else, especially in the way they had done it.

"How do I escape from here?"

Felix had only these words in his thoughts but the cold voice of Shima broke him from his thinking:

"You already thinking about escaping? You are actually a failed product... I couldn't get anything from dissecting you, I wasted my time and you even killed 30 scientists, I will be scolded..."

Those were great news for Felix but now came the round of bad news:

"Considering what you have done we won't kill you as you are a God's chosen and you could revive out of the cell and go God's knows where to go on a rampage again and kill more people, so we will just let you here to rot for 30 years, 1 year for each person you killed, actually if you just let yourself be dissected without any problems you could have already left by now considering you have no more research value, what a pity you are such a fool..."

Shima's voice disappeared as his silhouette didn't even appear in the cell room.
