Clang!

Yuria held a long saber and struck the robot’s arm in one go. Among the two of them, one was larger while the other was smaller. Their forces pressed against one another and collided violently. Despite only being slightly inferior to the robot, Yuria was sent flying for several meters before he landed on the ground lightly.

Within the forest, both of them resumed their confrontation once again, as sweat trickled down from Yuria’s sideburns endlessly.

His current strength could already be compared to Garen’s in his regular condition. However, the fellow on the opposite side of him had actually almost rendered him helpless.

When the robot was defending itself, Yuria’s saber could neither cut it nor pierce inwards. Meanwhile, every time the robot simply waved its hand when it attacked, Yuria needed to block its explosive force with all of his strength. Moreover, it was possible that he would suffer a fracture directly if he was even slightly distracted.

Just like the two other people who were lying on the side.

Bat and Egret were leaning closely against the bottom of a tree on the side. Both of them had suffered broken limbs that made it difficult for them to move. They could only stare blankly while Yuria and the robot fought directly.

Three days had passed since they encountered the robot. Within these three days, it seemed as though their opponent was murderously pursuing them unceasingly without any intention of showing mercy. Moreover, he did not have any worries about his own safety or mortality like normal people, instead, it acted unscrupulously.

“We’ve already requested for backup! Hold on!” Egret said while gritting his teeth. He was using both of his hands to assemble a thin, skateboard-like thing in an experienced manner. It seemed like some sort of transportation tool. They relied on these playthings to escape the robot’s murderous pursuit during these past few days.

Yuria did not reply. He pounced on the robot again and fought messily with it instead. The body of his saber struck various parts of the robot’s body continuously. It even left cracks on certain parts of its body but they were unfortunately ineffective. Even the connected parts inside the cracks remained unusually solid as there was an internal protective layer.

Hydra!

He suddenly released this ability quietly before the robot’s speed decreased instantly while his own speed increased abruptly.

Clang clang clang clang!

Four consecutive noises could be heard when his blade hit the same part of the robot’s nape suddenly.

Shh!

A thin crack appeared on the robot’s neck. The great impact force shook his body and forced him to take two steps backward.

“Fine!” It was apparently completely unconcerned about its own injuries. It joined both of its arms in the middle and attempted to grab Yuria’s waist firmly when Yuria was striking it rapidly. The robot tried to hold him tightly the same way a man would embrace a woman around her waist.

However, the Hydra’s abilities had absorbed the robot’s speed to strengthen Yuria instead, allowing his current speed to greatly surpassed his expectations. He recoiled his body and evaded capture immediately after he finished striking before his blade pierced the robot’s abdomen again. He used all of the strength in his body when he stabbed it. His skin reddened when he used all of the strength that he had borrowed from everyone else through the Savior’s special ability.

“Single Person’s Strength.”

Yuria turned around and spun rapidly while his blade rotated speedily like a deadly tornado.

Shh shh shh shh!

Endless cutting noises rang out from the robot’s body.

“Dragon Spine Leap.” The robot’s right arm pressed downwards firmly before a vaporous shroud of driving force exploded from its right shoulder suddenly. The robot increased the speed of its arm’s movements quickly while moving it downwards. The speed of its entire robotic arm instantly shot up several times while it came right in Yuria’s face to oppress him.

“Upwards!”

Yuria’s spinning sword move condensed into one movement suddenly before moving upwards.

Clank!

The blade and the robotic arm clashed violently. There was a brief clashing noise before the blade broke immediately and bounced away quickly.

Yuria’s expression changed and he retreated quickly. However, he had failed to react in time now. The explosion of the vapor increased the speed of the robot’s arm and allowed it to crash forward violently.

Bang!

He suffered a direct hit to his chest. A series of bone-breaking noises could be heard while Yuria was sent flying far away.

“Go!” Egret had finished making the skateboard some time ago. He brought Bat with him to pick Yuria up from afar before escaping into the distance speedily without even turning back.

Along the way, light traces of blood that were left behind on the grass could be seen faintly.

Bat could see the robot catching up to them quickly. “Its long-range attack measures have been exhausted, so there should be no problem as long as it doesn’t close the distance between us. Are you alright, Yuria?”

“I’m fine!” Yuria answered while his complexion turned paler. He spat out a mouthful of blood just as he finished speaking.

“This thing has the same strength as those in the top ten, at the very least! Although my injuries have healed perfectly, I couldn’t unleash the Savior’s power to its full potential, instead, I could only use the Single Person’s Strength. It was so strong that my body couldn’t take it.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already requested for backup so the powerhouses will be arriving soon. We just need to stall for some time and we’ll be fine,” said Egret hastily.

“Here! Here!” A series of frantic shouts echoed from the front suddenly.

Joyful looks appeared on Egret and Bat’s faces instantly. “They’re here!”

The trio rode the skateboard forward quickly and weaved through the forest. Soon, they saw a group of people in black clothes in front of them who were getting down from black motorcycles. One of them, who was leading the group, wore half of a golden mask that covered the left side of their face.

This person was actually a woman. There were several people behind her who were assembling a certain weapon for her now. That weapon looked like a longer and thicker version of a super sniper rifle.

The body of the entire rifle was silvery white; it almost resembled a small-scale cannon.

“Duck!”

The woman took the weapon and carried it on her shoulder before aiming it at Yuria and the other two people accurately.

The three of them immediately lowered their heads as much as they could.

Boom!

They merely heard a dull, thunderclap-like roar above their heads before the trio’s ears were completely muffled at once. They could not hear anything and could only feel their entire bodies turn numb while their ears were filled with a series of chaotic humming noises.

Boom!

They felt intense light and heat behind them instantly. Another violent shock wave shook the trio vigorously, making them fall off the skateboard. Fortunately, they were carefully caught by the soft net that was prepared by the people in black earlier.

The woman in black put the gigantic gun down and looked at the depths of the forest from afar where flames were soaring into the sky.

“We’ll use carpet bombing. Dispatch the Falcons.”

“Understood.”

“Request for Falcon Bombing.”

The person behind her relayed the command quickly.

The shrill noise of bombers echoed above the heads of the crowd instantly. Numerous white lines whizzed through the sky before exploding in the center of the large fire. The violent explosions piled up on each other vigorously before the flames and smoke dispersed. The surroundings of the forest were almost completely covered in flames, making it difficult for anything to be seen clearly.

“Is it dead?” The woman asked quietly.

“Its ideal radioactive energy level has decreased by more than forty percent. It’s currently retreating and has probably fled temporarily,” answered one of the subordinates behind her quietly while he was looking at a scanning device on his arm.

“Pursue and kill it with another round of carpet bombing! Destroy it.” The woman dangled a cigarette in her mouth gently before lighting it and taking a puff. Next, she held it with her fingers and removed it before shifting her attention towards Yuria and the other two people.

“Egret, long time no see. You look like you’re in a sorry state, huh.” The woman’s laughter echoed behind the mask.

“Big Sister!” Egret was standing up while being supported by someone else. He was too weak to stand because of his fractured leg. Thus, he could only lean on his other leg to support himself while standing on the ground. “It’s a good thing that you came over this time. Otherwise, we would be in deep trouble a little while longer.”

“Your opponent is one of White Whale’s people. Our superiors allowed us to wait for you nearby earlier. I didn’t expect to actually be sent to the battlefield.” The masked woman was ranked eighth in Vulture and she was an expert in long distance indiscriminate firing. The previous explosions were not simply normal serial bombings. In reality, each target was controlled by the masked woman. She could even determine each of the bombing targets and make sure that continuous strikes were aimed at the same target while her opponent was sent flying and bouncing off due to the explosion. That one specific target was the crack in the robot’s nape that was carved out by Yuria’s saber earlier.

“We’ve already reached the first steps of determining the identity of the opponent,” said the woman calmly, “the business alliance has already released the official command to arrest the White Crab Army.”

“White Crab Army?!” Yuria stood up despite the pain throughout his entire body. When he was violently hit earlier, his internal organs were shaken up and would not heal in less than one and a half hours.

“How did you manage to hear about them prior to this?” The woman asked while looking at him.

“Be careful!” Yuria pounced forward suddenly and collided against the masked woman violently.

Simultaneously, a spot of silver light hissed and passed through the initial position of the masked woman’s head while releasing an ear-piercing screech.

The silver light hit the head of one of the subordinates behind the woman directly. There was a popping noise before that person’s brain exploded and bits of red and white splattered everywhere.

Without having to wait for any shouts or orders, everyone returned fire immediately because they were ultimately the Elites. More than ten grenades flew out and fell in the direction where the silver light was being shot.

Bang bang bang bang!

Exploding noises echoed unceasingly while bullets made clanging noises, striking the metallic ground as if they were being defiantly blocked by something.

Yuria supported the woman slowly and helped her crawl back up.

“Thanks!” The woman’s face was solemn. “I owe you my life.”

“That won’t be necessary! You came here to support us anyway.” Yuria turned around and looked in the direction from which the silver light was being fired.

Within the raging fire and smoke, a gigantic body that was three meters tall walked out of the burning flames slowly. It was the robot from earlier!

Its body was larger and heavier now as if it was twice as broad as its initial size. A gash that resembled an eye had split open in the center of the robot’s body. This opening was filled with little eyes that were blinking with specks of green light.

There was previously a large hole in the area where the robot was injured. However, only a thin white scar remained there after the robot had healed itself speedily now.

“It’s useless. Unless you’re one of the top five powerhouses, the rest of you don’t even have the right to stand before me.” The robot’s deep voice echoed through the forest. It was tinged with the intense, static-like noises of everything that was burning.

“Threefold Super Electromagnetism.” The masked woman’s face turned colder while she carried the gun.

Bang!

A white light pillar lit up suddenly and hit the center of the robot’s chest at a speed that was faster than lightning.

Unexpectedly, the robot managed to grab the light pillar single-handedly. It held it in its palm tightly. The light beam remained in the robot’s palm for a few good seconds before it disappeared.

Shrouds of white smoke were escaping from the robot’s palm now. It was also slightly red and appeared to be at a very high, burning temperature.

“It ends now.” The robot smiled viciously before its large and heavy body exploded from the back suddenly, turning it into a great driving force that rushed violently toward Yuria and the two others who were gravely injured.

Whoosh!

The silver light flashed. At that moment, Yuria removed the body of a gleaming, slender silver saber from behind himself.

It was merely a normal saber, yet he used it to strike the robot’s body.

Boom!

There was a thunderclap-like noise before intense metallic fireworks exploded violently when the blade clashed against the metallic outer shell of the robot’s body.

It seemed as though the robot had suffered a lightning strike throughout its entire body. The robot flew backward like a cannonball while humming noises echoed from the inside of its body. The noises resembled a large clanging bell with sound waves that reverberated and surged through the insides of its body endlessly.

Ahh!

The robot let out an anguished scream while its body flipped over in the sky quickly. Flames spluttered from the boost motor on its back as it fled into the distance.
