Chapter 379: Sharp Tiger Claws!
Victor couldn't help but clench his hands when Chen Mo looked at his fingers, instinctively wanting to hide his unique nails.
Although Victor usually feels a little unruly and decisive, he has always had a deep inferiority complex in his heart.
The reason for this is his distinctive sharp nails.
Ordinary people's nails are thin, only about a millimeter thick, and the width is generally about one centimeter, while Victor's nails are half a centimeter thick, and the width is much narrower than that of normal people, almost half a centimeter, and the color is not as transparent as others, showing the pink and white of the flesh below, but a shiny brownish yellow, and the overall look is very ugly, as if deformed.
Moreover, his nails grow so fast that ordinary people need to trim them once in many days, and he has to trim them almost every day, otherwise the nails will soon grow long and sharp, looking like the claws of those ferocious beasts.
His father, Thomas, also disliked him because of this, often calling him a monster and abusing and beating him at every turn.
Others always looked at him with a strange look in their eyes, and many people privately said that he was the child of the beast, and even called him a monster.
Of all the people around him, James was the only one who never disliked him, didn't look at him strangely, and treated him as a friend.
So even if he didn't know that James was his own brother before, he still cared for James very much, accompanied and took care of him when he was sick, and stood up to protect him when others bullied him.
However, his nails have always been a piece of heart disease in his heart, making him feel inferior, and he has always been indifferent and withdrawn in the face of others, in fact, he just doesn't want to be hurt by other people's strange eyes, and chooses to make himself cold and tough, and use the hardest side to face people and eyes in the outside world.
Feeling Chen Mo's gaze fall on his hand, Victor instinctively clenched his fists and hid his nails, but the pride in his heart still made him not put his hands behind his back.
If clenching his fists is defense, then the act of putting his hands behind his back is in his opinion an escape, weakness, and being strong, he does not allow himself to show his weak side!
Hearing Chen Mo ask if this was his ability, Victor couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, and didn't understand why Chen Mo asked like this
Although he was reluctant to mention his nails to others, and he had never discussed them with others before, he still raised his head in the face of the savior's inquiry, and replied pretending to be relaxed.
"No, sir, they're just deformed."
Although he wanted to pretend to be relaxed and act like he didn't care, while saying this, Victor still involuntarily clenched his fists, obviously his heart was not as calm as he appeared.
Chen Mo shook his head lightly when he heard his answer, and said slowly in his low and majestic voice.
"No, they're not deformities, they're your innate abilities, the same transcendent abilities as your brother!"
Chen Mo's tone was extremely affirmative, and there seemed to be some kind of magic in his deep voice, which made people feel convincing.
If someone else said this to him, Victor would definitely think that the other party was mocking him, but when this sentence came out of Chen Mo's mouth, he couldn't help but want to believe it.
Your own extraordinary abilities?
Victor stretched out his hands and looked at his hard, thick, yet incomparably sharp "ugly" nails.
However, although he felt that Chen Mo was not joking, or deliberately sarcastically humiliating him, and wanted to believe what he said, but looking at his nails, Victor couldn't help but be full of suspicion.
This is as ugly as the claws of a beast, it doesn't look like any ability, the long bone spurs sticking out of James's fist can also pierce the body and kill people, what about his claws? Tickle?
Seeing the tangled expression on Victor's face, Chen Mo easily guessed his thoughts, he also hoped that his nails were not deformed in other people's mouths, but had a special ability with great power like James, but he really couldn't think of what use this "ugly" nail could be.
"Have you ever seen a brown bear in the forest?"
Victor nodded slightly, although he was young, he was not as frail as James, he rarely went out, because his father Thomas treated him very badly, often beat and scolded, and his strange nails made no one else want to play with him, so Victor often ran alone into the forest since he was a child, where he felt free, free, unrestrained, without caring about other people's eyes, and no one would laugh at him.
He had seen all kinds of animals in the forest, in addition to reindeer and goats, which were not too threatening, and he had also encountered fierce carnivores such as gray wolves and brown bears, but he had escaped them all.
So Chen Mo mentioned brown bears, Victor immediately remembered the scene when he met brown bears in the forest, these huge beasts with long claws and fangs, extremely fierce, he only saw it from a distance and didn't dare to get any closer, and quickly quietly retreated for a distance before turning around and running away.
"The claws of brown bears can leave deep wounds on their prey, even on thick tree trunks, which can make deep scratches."
Listening to Chen Mo's words, Victor couldn't help but remember that he often saw some animal scratches on the trunks of some big trees in the forest.
The thick bark of the trunk was peeled away, revealing a large area of bare trunk underneath, and several deep scratches were left on the hard wood, and he wondered what would happen if the claw was scratched at a person's body.
"In my hometown, there is a powerful beast that lives in the mountains and forests, the tiger, we call the king of beasts, is the most powerful creature in the forest, their claws are not as long as the brown bear, but they are sharper than the brown bear, and the power is stronger, when predatoring, their claws can easily cut the body and stomach of the prey, puncture the internal organs, if caught on the body, only one claw can kill the person!"
Originally, the sharp claws of the brown bear had already made Victor's eyes shine, and the sharp tiger claws told by Chen Mo made him yearn for it.
If his claws can reach the level of tiger claws, then the power is indeed no worse than James's bone spurs.
"Your claws are also very sharp, and it is no problem to cut through people's skin, as long as you have enough strength, you can completely pierce muscles, pierce into the enemy's body, and grab their internal organs to pieces!"
