I'm a Stingray?

At first it was difficult for the lady to understand her own veins. Sure they raged with some sort of power, but it was tricky to figure out just how to unlock these marvelous abilities.

This aspect baffled Dana ever since she touched that crystal cube. But since this situation demanded crude action, her understanding of these veins was forced towards a boost!

First things first she picked up that these green-veins worked together, to create five key points where all this power could be projected.

That type of information was important. And it became even more useful once she figured out how to channel all those powers, towards the same five key points.

It became apparent that her long and complex veins weren't just for show; they entirely behaved like a bridge instead.

It was difficult to grasp the definition of that detail, but she managed to break through.

These green-veins acted like an extension of her own nervous system!

Such a realisation, helped make sense regarding why it was difficult to grasp the patterns of these recent changes.

And once she put these new veins into use, the stingray lady picked up one more grand detail!

There apparently were five key-points, which could interject her powers to the outside world!

And Dana was sure that her new green-veins acted as a bridge, which helped channel her power towards those key-points.

That fact aside, all of this power seemed to have a source as well! This base manifestation of power was hidden deep within the young lady's body.

Why this power behaved in such a matter was beyond her.

Pure radiation wasn't a context expansive enough to give a proper explanation, so that couldn't be it.

Yet right now she didn't want to worry about that. Instead she focused on asserting dominance, against the three attackers who wanted her dead!

That was when a few thin streams of green-light ruptured out of her body and wiggled their way towards battle!

At first Dana was a bit confused regarding the exact location of these five key points, but now she was absolutely certain.

The light itself popped out of specific spots of her green veins.

Two thin streams erupted right on top of her head, right from those bumps that behaved like ears!

That aside, a single stream of light also made itself apparent on the fine eagle-ray's tail, from the very tip to be exact.

And the final two elongated portions of green-light erupted from the lady's two fins!

Her fins had a triangular shape since birth, and considering the rest of the process, it wasn't a surprise how the key points were located at the very tip of those same fins.

Now these details aside, all of this effort to break some light out of her body, was not just for show!

These streams of power, headed towards the targeted enemy, as soon as they escaped from Dana's body!

But before any collision had been made apparent, these powers decided to prove themselves fascinating one more time!

These streams of light connected with one another as they went forward.

And afterwards they shaped into a small, but violent spiral!

This spiral behaved a lot like some tiny tornado. But in this situation it moved horizontally, and had specific targets to terminate!

The one foot long spiral crashed right against one of these crystal- fish, and the result proved itself beyond expectations!

Upon collision, everyone nearby could hear a loud thud!

This crash-like sound mixed with an ear-piercing sound, which was equal to the vibration of shattered glass!

Before practically anyone could have analysed what just happened, the spiral delivered its final portion of this grand attack!

The very crystal fish who wanted to attack the fine lady, had suffered quite some unusual pain...

Its body had been ripped into thousands of pieces, which ranged from tiny to whole chunks in size!

And then the spiral spilled those very same portions, across all of the surrounding directions!

It was no secret that the target had been completely obliterated after that point. This result hinted that the attack of which Dana unleashed, was confusingly powerful!

Sure the team had seen plenty of situations, where various light-based powers had destroyed enemies in some brutal ways. But what this lady had unleashed a moment ago, was far more perplexing.

Simply because that enemy had not exploded in such a manner, from brute strength alone.

No, there were other factors that contributed towards the whole result!

Specifically speaking, the spiral itself had penetrated the enemy at first, and then unleashed many vein-like branches all across the same target’s body!

And when those veins thickened within a blink of an eye, the crystal fish had no other option but to explode!

Dana was uncertain if she could attain the same result against an enemy who had flesh and bones, but surely the future could give her the opportunity to figure things out.

As for now she had to deal with a couple other enemies, which didn’t back down regardless of the vile scene they just witnessed!

Timothy on the other hand had quite a bit of fun. He already finished off the combatants that opposed him.

And it was fair to say that the methods he had used were quite crude.

Of course most of his power-attacks featured brute strength, but in this situation he literally slapped these enemies to death, all for the pure sake of spite.

The battle was over before it even began, and the system decided to give a few notifications regarding this matter.

[You’ve killed three of these crystal-coated species of fish,]

[It’s extremely difficult to understand if they are dead or alive, since they don’t have any organs and can’t particularly move either]

[But they can communicate, fight and reason. So it’s a good idea to reward your efforts]

[Since this battle wasn’t exactly difficult for you, it’s best to scale this reward with thirty-five system points in total]

[As for the contribution you made towards the discovery of this new species, you get three-hundred system points as a reward]

“I should have discovered weird ass fish long ago,” The hero lightly joked around.

But then he thought about another enemy that these tunnels had provided. Almost instantly, a few realisations regarding that matter made the boy a little greedy!
