Harry Potter The Mutant Obscurus Gamer

Chapter 41 - 41 Rated R for Rabbit



Although Harry was tempted to break out the reality bomb, set the timer to five seconds and say Adios, he wanted a better idea of the situation before he started destroying everything.

Harry opened the eyelids of one of the unconscious lab coat wearing personnel and used Legilimency combined with telepathy to target and read specific sets of information.

It seemed this location was a vast compound run and owned by Mister Sinister, the one Nanny and Orphan Maker escaped from. Their goal after kidnapping Jean was to implant some mental programming into her mind, collect some DNA, and then wipe her mind of the procedure and release her to be found by the X-Men.

What surprised Harry was that after learning that they had no intention to kill or keep her, he didn\'t feel a need to adjust his plans for wiping out the complex. The fact that she was a target in the first place was the issue. If they had politely invited her, asked nicely, and accepted a refusal if given, then he wouldn\'t care. But no, they had ambushed her when she was alone, captured her, and taken her.

The pop up certainly got Harry\'s attention. Since the fiasco with Hell mode at Hogwarts, Harry had kept the Dungeon Generation system turned off with the intention to never turn it on again. And yet he was tempted. He did need to level up after all.

As for the innocents in the complex, Harry knew there to be none. From his mind, Harry learned that the man was a clone as were all the other personnel. They were created to be loyal and controllable. They didn\'t even know what the programming they were going to apply to Jean had been for.

Harry Paused and went over the ups and downs for a while before deciding to give it a go. Worst case scenario was failure to destroy the place.

Harry made another portal and left the place before opening his settings and turning on the Dungeon settings. He also took a swig of polyjuice potion and changed his clothes. He had been in too much of a rush to disguise himself before getting Jean, but since he was about to go on a rampage, a little precaution wouldn\'t hurt.

Harry made a portal back to the same spot and the moment he was about to enter, he got the pop-up he never thought he\'d see again.

Harry physically poked the selection for Hell. He had changed the settings a while back so that he had to poke the selection instead of think it. The reason he chose Hell on purpose this time was that unlike his time at Hogwarts, he was actually prepared.

-Defeat Mister Sinister or force him to flee.]

Harry opened up his minimap and saw a half dozen areas where he figured each of the targets were located. He zoomed out of the minimap and though there were no details for areas he had never explored, if he zoomed out enough, he could tell his location on the planet.

From what he saw, he appeared to be somewhere in central Africa. When he compared the map to some of the Atlas\' in his inventory, he appeared to be one of the mountainous regions.

After another Pause, Harry had a plan that was both vicious, ruthless, and would leave both horror and nightmares to any of the few that may last long enough to survive.

The first thing Harry took out was a crystal sculpture that was in the shape of a bunny rabbit. In the center of the crystal was a fist sized gold sphere of vibranium engraved adamantium which held more magic than any other artifact Harry had ever created and was even comparable to some of the relics Harry had seen in Kamar-Taj.

Harry cast several unlocking spells on the crystal rabbit which allowed the magic within to activate. The final measure to unlock was a voice command from Harry. "Rise, Rabbit of Caerbannog."

The moment the final word was spoken, the crystal turned into a slightly chubby white fuzzy bunny rabbit. Harry telepathically sent the parameters for its targets into the rabbit\'s mind. Those with clean clothes in this facility, and those who attack the rabbit. Any who meet these criteria were considered targets.

The rabbit was gently placed on the ground and it took a moment to scan its surroundings and Harry. By default Harry would not be a target even if he fell in the parameters, but the unconscious personnel in the room were.

The rabbit vanished from where it stood at speeds that would have given Pietro a run for his money and it reappeared where it stopped next to one of the unconscious lab techs.

Harry turned away and went over to a corner. From his inventory he took out four difficult pieces of tech and ȧssembled them into a reality bomb. Unlike that unstable first iteration he used against the Knights of Wulpurgis, this one was far more stable. Relatively speaking.

Harry didn\'t purposely set out to create a reality bomb one day. He was simply trying to create magic that could replicate his inventory while looking through the magics of how the Room of Requirements worked. Since his inventory worked through means he couldn\'t understand, Harry\'s experiments went far beyond the recommended practices and right into forbidden territory.

Eventually Harry had the idea to expand a point of zero volume into empty space. At first no matter how much he tried, it didn\'t work, so he tried overcharging the spell.

What Harry didn\'t realize back then was that expanding a zero volume point was the Wizard equivalent of dividing by zero. The reason the RoR could do so was because the origin of its space was Chthon\'s Nether Realm while Harry was trying to expand nothing into something.

Harry did not create a pocket of space from nothing, instead he created a bubble that rapidly expanded and lasted for a few moments before it popped. The bubble itself seemed to reject the laws of reality and everything caught within would practically have its logic removed. When the bubble popped the laws of reality would impose themselves back on the space which had a myriad of unpredictable effects. Even matter outside the bubble would be affected as the laws of reality would be pushed from the bubble and then swept back in like a flowing tide and those near the shore were affected as well.

The range of this bomb would be about half a kilometre and wouldn\'t go off on its own without substantial tampering. Anything caught within may end up crushed, disintegrated, altered, or erased from existence. Harry tested a number of them in the Mirror Dimension which fixed itself regularly so he knew the effects well enough.

Harry set the bomb\'s timer to thirty minutes and headed up the stairs.

The dozen guards and workers Harry had knocked out earlier had become blood stained skeletons with shredded lab coats. Harry spotted the last guard in the ground who was surrounded by more than thirty white rabbits, gnawing at the man\'s flesh and stipping it bȧrė.

Harry felt no pity for any of them. The Rabbit of Caerbannog was a construct that Harry put a lot of the life force he gathered from Limbo into making. It was designed to be used if Harry was ever surrounded by enemies like in case he got trapped in hell again with nothing but demons.

The adamantium and vibranium core of the original rabbit included over a dozen spells which was a feat only possible thanks to the magic conductive properties of the two metals. Unlike the adamantium of Logan\'s skeleton which was actually an artificial adamantium made with a base of iron, true adamantium made of alchemically synthesized gold could hold spells better than any other.

The Rabbit of Caerbannog could absorb energy and replicate itself using the flesh of others through a combination of transfiguration and the gemini spell. Though it looked like they were eating.

The rabbit\'s skull and teeth had hardness near that of adamantium and it could move at battering ram speeds allowing them to bust open doors. They could also jump at blinding speeds and their teeth also had a severing charm constantly applied to it. If a rabbit had absorbed enough energy, it could use that to replicate itself as well.

Harry chose this weapon of mass destruction for two reasons. First, from the memories of the lab tech, Harry learned that Sinister had a fondness for energy weapons. The second was that Mister Sinister was a scientist who devoted years to studying mutants. He likely had a contingency plan for any mutant he encountered. But how would he react to Harry\'s Swarm of Caerbannog? Harry wanted to know.

Harry turned himself invisible and decided to just guide his swarm from the back.

At the end of the hall was a group of thirty rabbits and many of them were smashing themselves head first into the door which, dent by dent, seemed like it would give way any moment. Harry however was not the patient sort so he quietly conjured a replica of the Kestrel Key of Krakkan. Using it as a wand he fired a beam of light at the door which lit up green and opened.

Although Harry\'s wizard unlocking spell would fry a computer lock, he was free to use the sorcerer spell to unlock things as he pleased.

Harry was not concerned with cameras or sensors. The moment he decided to end this place, he released the tight grip he had on his wizard magic and every piece of tech around him was flashing, sending off sparks, or shutting down due to critical error. Not to mention the fact that each rabbit contained a massive amount of wizard magic as well. The door he opened earlier had actually already fried and only opened due to the nature of the unlocking spell he used.

The swarm of rabbits was met with a platoon of six armed guards who started opening fire the moment the door opened. Harry stayed to the side to avoid the incoming blasts and though he could easily survive them, he didn\'t want them to target him while invisible regardless.

The energy weapons made each rabbit it hit glow for a moment but did nothing else. The swarm of rabbits launched forward like arrows fired from a bow and only a single guard in the back who ducked down at the last moment found himself not deprived of his head as he watched the headless forms of his squad fall lifelessly to the ground.

He didn\'t even have time to scream before another half dozen rabbits launched forward removing his head and both arms.

One of the scariest things about the Rabbit of Caerbannog was that each copy possessed a hive mind. This made it easier for Harry to direct when needed but it also meant they could attack in formation. The inspiration for the artifact was half from Monty Python and half from that story Mr. Rasputin told about the 3000 rabbit army which defeated Napoleon in history class.

The corpses were quickly swarmed and transfigured into another dozen rabbits which continued down the hall.

The room at the end of the hall was large and had another fifteen or so people in lab coats. There were no screams. The white fuzzy bunnies spreading out was strange but not something the lab techs would run away from. They didn\'t see what happened and the rabbits were spreading out at Harry\'s command before going for the kill.

Harry almost smirked to himself when a few of the personnel actually ignored the rabbits. What they didn\'t ignore was their computer screens suddenly looking like they had been exposed to a magnet.

An alarm on the wall turned on which got everyone\'s attention and made a great distraction. Harry used to have a bunny rip the head of each of the lab techs.

Harry didn\'t consider the spell which prevented the rabbit\'s fur from getting stained with blood useless because in situations like this, the clean white rabbits made people lower their guard too easily.

A bald male appeared in the room out of nowhere and Harry\'s minimap showed him blinking, indicating him as one of the targets.

The man had extensive tattoos over his head and arms and after taking a look at the rabbits, took out a gun and started shooting them.

Harry used his control over the rabbits to prevent them from retaliating. The man continued to shoot rabbit after rabbit and when he stopped to reload, Harry shot him with a spell he found in the Black family library which didn\'t emit light or sound. After he confirmed the spell made contact, Harry had the rabbits attack the man from his blind spot. Harry wasn\'t surprised when the man vanished in thin air. Many teleporters had excellent space perception and attacks from behind wouldn\'t do much unless he couldn\'t sense them or were fast enough.

The man did not return though as a check mark appeared next to the name Vanisher on the Quest board. The spell Harry used was a weaponized version of the effect of the blood replenishing potion using the gemini charm as a base. It caused the opponent\'s blood to increase without end until the physical body exploded. It didn\'t have much use on magicals as their blood required a lot more effort to replicate, but a muggle without anything special in their blood would be affected without issue. Though a mutant, the man teleported with his mind, meaning there was nothing special about his body.

The rabbits that were shot did not dispel. All rabbits would only dispel when Harry dispelled the activation magic on the original. What did happen though was that the live rabbits went over and made it look like they were reviving their dead, though it was just a recasting of the transfiguration magic on the flesh.

Harry had the rabbits rip open and consume the materials on the biohazard marked containers which Harry found contained blood samples. Two minutes after entering the room, there were now about a hundred rabbits. Harry looked up his minimap to learn where his remaining targets were and where the dead ends likely were and went about opening doors and leading his rabbit horde while remaining invisible.

The sirens seemed to have been the evacuation order as the following rooms were empty. Harry used his map and door unlocking spells to continue up into the compound until he made it to a room containing a massive brute of a man with enormous goat horns on his head and a long frazzled white beard. The other targets save one are all heading in his direction and this is the one that got there first.

The twelve foot tall behemoth wore thick armor over his torso and shoulders but looked more than a little confused when the herd of fuzzy white rabbits calmly hopped out of the hallway.

He holds a hand to his ear and says, "Um, sir? Its rabbits. Dozens of them. Uh huh. Did you find Vanisher yet?"

Harry has the rabbits do the same as earlier, spread out and look docile.

The giant continued, "Yes sir, they are white and fuzzy. I don\'t know sir. Do you want me to check?"

He walked over to a pair of bunnies and stepped on them, squishing the pair beneath his massive foot.

He lifted his foot to confirm the gore and said, "They squish like bunnies. No sir. Sir? Sinister, I can\'t hear you."

The communicator fell to the effect of the magic in the room and Harry launched his dimension splitter from behind the massive man. The last time he used the spell it only bȧrėly wounded the immortal black dragon but this man was far from Chiantang\'s standard and the armor had no magic defense as it appeared to be solid metal.

The rabbits quickly devoured both halves of the giant and the hundred rabbits quickly turned to a hundred fifty. Harry vanished the bones which left traces of his magic before heading into the next room.

Harry continued unlocking doors and leading the group up the complex. Two of the final targets had grouped together and were waiting in the next room.

Thirty armored guards with high tech weaponry stood at the ready against the swarm. In the back of the group were two who stood out. A man seemingly composed of sand colored crystal and a short woman with pink skin stood in the open, waiting for the horde.

The crystal man said into a communicator, "Aries is gone. I don\'t see anyone opening the doors except the rabbits. Understood sir." He motioned forward and the armed guards opened fire. Harry apparated to the far side of the room behind the group as he had no way to easily dodge incoming fire from such a confined space.

The rabbits took it in stride and after being struck two or three times the rabbits would glow brightly and another rabbit would form next to them. Harry had the rabbits slow their advance so they could soak up more energy fire from the guards.

The crystal man shouted, "Hold your fire!" and Harry used that moment to order an attack. The rabbit\'s teeth and magic easily ripped through the guard\'s armor and limbs and heads were ripped off one by one.

The crystal man ran over to the wall while several rabbits had their teeth locked onto his limbs and they were slowly nibbling away as the dense materials. He swatted them away like mosquitoes but they would jump back at him as soon as they had a chance and he shouted, "Azimuth, now!"

The purple skinned woman had been deftly dodging the attacking rabbits and did a backflip over to the wall herself and opened her mouth wide. From Harry\'s perspective, it looked like a black hole had formed in her mouth and a vortex of suction force was dragging everything not nailed down in the room into her mouth.

Unfortunately for the pair, they were on the same wall as Harry. The young wizard cast an over powered transfiguration spell at the crystal man and turned him into sand. That spell had little effect on organic tissue but turning glass or crystal to sand wasn\'t difficult for a strong wizard.

Azimuth closed her mouth and turned to see her partner turn to sand just as the severing spell came at her. The woman\'s reflexes were impressive as she ducked the decapitating slash but the horde of rabbits had taken the moment she closed her mouth and dodged Harry\'s attack to gain the distance. Surrounded from all sides, she had no place to dodge and she was quickly devoured by rabbits leaving only a skeleton.

It cost more magic to transfigure bone into a rabbit compared to flesh so all the corpses left bloody skeletons. Also made for a nightmare inducing atmosphere which appealed to Harry\'s nature as a prankster with arguably bad taste. Though he did vanish the sand of the crystal guy and repair the damage done to the wall by the severing spell with a Reparo charm. The less evidence of his capabilities, the better.

The minimap was showing more and more hallways so Harry had groups of rabbits split off and go on their own while Harry led the main horde to the final target. Harry had no idea how it worked, but he even got experience from the kills of the far away Rabbits. He had already leveled up twice from the massive amount of human guards killed through the complex, not to mention to four targets Harry suspected gave more Experience than usual because of the quest.

By the time Harry\'s swarm reached what appeared to be a throne room, about twenty-two minutes had passed meaning the bomb would go off in another eight minutes.

The throne room was empty save the target sitting on the throne watching the approaching rabbit horde. Harry\'s energy senses bȧrėly reacted to the weapons and the mutants in this place, but this guy was at another level entirely.

Harry\'s first impression of the man with the ash grey skin was a vampire, but the lack of death energy put that theory quickly to rest. He had a red diamond on his forehead and red eyes. His suit seemed to be made of metallic ribbons which looked both decorative and functional.

As there was only one target without a check mark in the quest list, it was obvious this was Mister Sinister, the boss of this place.

The moment the rabbit horde got close enough, a telepathic attack was sent by Mister Sinister and attempted to take control of the rabbits.

Bad call. Unless he could mimic the signature of Harry\'s thoughts, they wouldn\'t listen to him and went into a frenzy as that was considered an attack. The group of more than fifty rabbits launched forward at the same time but Sinister fired red energy beams from his hands which Harry sensed had a similar signature to Scott\'s and matched the power of Scott\'s beam without his visor.

The rabbits were blown back but glowed white and multiplied in the air leading to more rabbits gathering together and charging once more.

A few rabbits made it through but a powerful psionic barrier formed and the rabbits bounced off. A few rabbits hopped onto the top of the barrier and began to gnaw on it but the barrier pulsed causing the rabbits to be shot away.

Mister Sinister then telekinetically lifted the hundred rabbits into the air and one by one, snapped their necks.

Harry pulled his magic guns out of his inventory and fired. Sinister\'s barrier shattered but another smaller one behind it glowed revealing the layering the man had set up. He shouted, "Finally showing yourself huh? I\'ll admit that your stealth ability is most impressive. My sensors are some of the best in the world yet they cannot see you nor these creatures of yours."

Because Harry\'s magic was invisible through indirect observation, unless you were recording the light bouncing off their bodies or touched them to feel their weight and fur, these constructs of Harry\'s magic could not be detected through infrared or energy sensors. Even recordings weren\'t great as they were the most sėnsɨtɨvė to wizard magic and as soon as a rabbit entered the camera\'s picture, the screen would turn to fuzzy grey snow rather quickly.

Harry wasn\'t going to give his position away yet to a Hell level boss and continued moving with magically silenced steps while firing his guns at random intervals from random locations.

Sinister\'s hand motioned to the side and one of the columns supporting the roof was stripped from its place with his telekinesis and swung through the air where he guessed Harry was. This forced the young wizard to play life or death Limbo and quickly duck beneath the force of the pillar which matched Chiantang\'s tail sweep in overall power.

Sinister sneered and closed his eyes. A moment later, Harry found an intruder in his mindscape, The man couldn\'t locate his presence or energy, but he could locate his mind by spreading his presence into the whole room.

From within the library, Mister Sinister remarked, "What a well built mind. I shall enjoy turning you into my puppet and taking everything you know."

*Ping*

[Physical Paralysis Debuff added, Movement speed decreased by 75% while debuff remains active.]

Harry felt that his body was far more difficult to move while Sinister was inside his head, however he wasn\'t worried, the man would not be there for long.

The intruder took a book from the self and smiled at how easily the book allowed for ȧssimilation of the knowledge. Before he could start downloading the knowledge himself, the books of the library all jumped off the shelves and created a gigantic mess. This was nothing however as each book transformed into a monster and started attacking Sinister.

Sinister\'s astral form fired red beams and psionic blasts at the various monsters to dispel them, but each time he did, Harry would Pause. When paused, any intruder was also paused. Harry couldn\'t do anything to them, but he could repair any defenses they broke. Sinister\'s mental might was extremely impressive and all but the strongest beasts in Harry\'s mind were torn apart like tissue paper to the man, but Harry had a resource Sinister could never imagine, infinite mental time.

Sinister was aware that each creature was weak but he could not grasp how each construct so easily repaired itself.

Seeing as he was making absolutely no headway, Sinister retreated.

*Ping*

[Physical Paralysis Debuff has been resisted.]

However Harry\'s head didn\'t just have psionic defenses, it also had wizard defenses. The reason Harry could sense the presence of even Charles Xavier was due to these defenses and he could even reverse the tap to learn Charles\' identity through his own mind tap.

Harry amplified each of the thousands of creatures with his own version of a weaponized Legilimency spell and had them follow Sinister\'s astral form back into his own mind and ȧssault it from within.

Sinister\'s shield wavered and many of the rabbits held in the air fell down. Harry renewed his own magic bullet ȧssault and broke through another layer of the man\'s shields.

Sinister snarled, giving a show of his pointed white teeth and threw his hands out. The remaining rabbits in the room were telekinetically torn to pieces as he gave up on active defense and relied on the passive defenses of his mind knowing the creatures that had broken through were too weak to do anything to his own mind.

Harry used the opening to throw three grenades. The Stunner Grenade, the Blasting Grenade, and the Slow Grenade went off at the same time with a deafening explosion which shook the room. The Slow Grenade was a new combination of the Arresto Momentum charm and the Impedimenta jinx which had an effect of removing momentum and slowing time of the target.

When the smoke cleared, Sinister was still standing as his third and final shield was still holding against the power of the blasts. He was however looking towards Harry\'s position with a cruel smile and said, "There you are."

Harry noticed the smoke and debris was going around him which gave away his position though invisible. Sinister grabbed Harry with his telekinesis and pulled him forward, but Harry used his own Psionics to resist and broke free. He was however marked meaning Sinister didn\'t need to see him to attack so Harry removed the invisibility spell making Sinister smile again and say, "It will be a pŀėȧsurė dissecting you, cell by cell."

His hands glowed red for a moment before releasing another copy of Scott\'s beam but Harry had observed enough of Sinister\'s tricks to have prepared in advance. Harry tapped a buckler he had removed from his inventory while Sinister was facing off against the rabbits and caused it to expand. The red beam bounced off the mirror like shield and was directed back at Sinister while Harry charged forward and emptied another clip of his magic gun. No matter how good he was, his magic casting speed was still slower than a gun so there was little point in not using it. The reason he didn\'t use spells like Dimension Splitter was that he wasn\'t sure if it would work against those shields and that the quest stated Sinister might flee. Harry wouldn\'t show all his cards to someone who might live to prepare for them, so he used guns and grenades and what could very well be stealth tech.

Sinister stopped the beam and jumped forward as well. Once within range the pair quickly entered close combat. Harry measured the man\'s strength at ten tons which was five times stronger than his base strength without magic. Harry was matching and even surpassing him though as he was controlling the Dimensional energy within his body to move his body faster and with more force using the combat style of Sorcerers.

Sinister initially took each blow with a confident ease as Harry quickly realized the man had regenerative capabilities which were close to Logan\'s. The man\'s confidence however waned with each exchange as he realized his own blows were having little effect as Harry too had some sort of healing factor and his body did not weaken with each connecting strike. Sinister couldn\'t sense any energy from Harry and since he wasn\'t using Cyttorak\'s Strength energy or Immortal Dragon Chi, Harry wasn\'t glowing red or gold making it look like he was fighting using natural strength.

Mister Sinister took a step back and said, "This has gone on far enough. Your abilities are impressive, but no one is a match for Sinister!"

He moved in close and went for another exchange of blows Harry was happy to give, however at the last moment he withdrew his own fist and allowed Harry to strike him. Using the opening he grabbed Harry\'s arm and slid up the sleeve, revealing Harry\'s bȧrė flesh. He grabbed it with the other arm and leveled his eyes with Harry while giving a sinister smile.

*Ping*

[Dilate Power Debuff added, mutant power disabled while debuff remains active.]

Harry stared dumbly at the pop up while Sinister clenched tightly onto Harry\'s wrist. His grip however suddenly slipped through as Harry\'s wrist lost color and turned to black ash like substance that dissolved into a cloud of black mist along with the whole of Harry\'s hand. Sinister\'s sneer turned into confusion as the pair both looked down at Harry\'s severed wrist which was slowly breaking down bit by bit.

Harry\'s only comment was a curious, "Huh.." And in the next moment, he exploded.
