Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse-Chapter 190 Growl
"Candace?" I called as I kept my eyes locked on the dog-looking thing.
"Yes! I am okay, but John is in critical condition!" Candace called from the next room.
"What can you tell me about this creature? I don't have much to go on other than I can transform! My name is Daniel Brighton, and I was sent in here by Riley!" I called over, and the dog thing started to growl again. "Can you shut the fuck up? Stop growling at me, you damned beast!"
The Barabasuar stopped growling, to my surprise, tilted his head at me, and narrowed big eyes. No part of me liked the look I was getting, and a small part of me had a feeling that this thing understood me.
"Don't curse at it! Growl is very sensitive!" Candace called up.
"Really? Can it understand me?" I shout over.
"Better than you think!"
I gave the creature an unbelieving look, and I was given a non-caring one back, and the Barabasuar turned up its nose at me.
"Listen, doggy, I need to... is he supposed to do this?!" I asked as I started to step back.
"I told you he is sensitive!"
The dog was starting to shift and got much bigger to the point that it was filling up the room that was thankfully much bigger than the others. Looks like the puppers wanted to play. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚
Roots burst from my back and then splashed into the metal floors and walls, making everything a part of me. Roots burst from every direction and grabbed the massive monster as it dove at me, stopping just before my face. I didn't flinch, but I did step back as the creature roared at me, straining futilely against my bonds.
I reached forward and patted the creature's massive head. I could feel the intelligence, and a quick scan told me that this creature was nearly as smart as a human.
"Good man. I know that you are probably trying to protect these people, but that is what I am here for. If you like protecting people, then you can come home with me. I have lots of people to protect, and I have beautiful forests for you to roam freely. You don't have a home, right?" I asked the creature, and it stopped roaring at me and went quiet.
I was hit with a sensation of thoughts; this creature felt me to be different than the others. This feeling was almost identical to the way that Mr. Tree talked with me.
Suddenly, Images of a massive tube structure that was filled with caged creatures that I had never seen before filled my mind. This place was where Growl had been created and where he had spent his entire life until he was transported. The ship he was on crashed here, and humans captured him, but he was very close with a woman that I assume to be Candace.
I sent back everything that had happened to me so far, and the images not only shocked Growl but intrigued him. I was sent questions about if he could see the forest and some of the other big creatures that I had displayed.
"Once we are done here, you can come back with me and the others. I still have to do some more work, but I first need to heal the hurt person behind me. Are we done with the fighting?" I asked, and I got a strong confirmation that Growl was no longer my enemy.
My roots let go of him, and the massive blue-maned and matted orange fur body shrank back. This guy was going to need a brush at some point, but I am sure that one of the girls could deal with it.
"Come with me, and let's go see the others. Show me where they are," I said, and Growl nodded at me.
After my roots were back in, I followed Growl to a large glass area filled with straw. There were two humans inside, and the male looked to be in rough shape. The girl got up and came over to the door, opening it up to look at the two of us in shock.
"How were you able to calm Growl down?!" Candace asked, and I shrugged.
"We understand each other pretty well now. Let me in so I can help John," I said, and Candace opened the door, letting both Growl and me into the twenty-foot cubed area.
I walked over to the man, and he had a severely infected right arm that was severed at his elbow. The man was sweating and looked to be in a great deal of pain.
"John was attacked by one of the Wargon's, and it took most of his arm," Candace said as she and Growl came over beside me.
"Yeah, looks pretty bad. I killed two of them by accident, but I think there are two more running around," I said as I squatted down.
"Three more. The ones that you would have killed would be the lesser males. The female is much bigger and will not come out if she doesn't have to. The female Wargon is much bigger than the males, but they make them do all the hunting," Candace explained as I placed a hand on John's chest.
"Is there anything special about them? Or anything that I should worry about?" I asked as I activated my System and slowly started to not only heal John but rejuvenate him as well.
"What are you doing to him?!" Candace exclaimed, and I smiled. It was easy to forget how crazy this looked to someone that knew nothing about me.
"My name is Daniel like I said, but I am not fully human. I am rejuvenating his body and bringing him to his ideal body age. Everyone has a peak age, so to speak, and I have the ability to recharge a body to that point. There are a handful of other things that I can do, but there are also rejuvenating pools I have created above that do the same thing," I explained, and Candace looked away from me to think for a moment.
