Chapter 457
Chapter 457: 457
“Looks like another strange fella has arrived…” ROOT looked at Xiao Tan and commented contemplatively.
“ha ha… Phew…” Feng Bujue’s breathing soon became even. “If you’ve come later, it would be a goner for me.”
“Even if I have rescued you for now…” Xiao Tan continued, “That won’t solve the problem, right.”
“It’s fine…” Feng Bujue said. “There was a reason I was captured, I still have a plan…”
The two only had time to share a few quick words before ROOT recovered her broken arm… her body flickered and she appeared before Feng Bujue again.
“Don’t you ever need time to come up with these lies?” ROOT’s arm went for Brother Jue’s neck again. Instantly, a burst of red energy filled the air. Feng Bujue activated Body Enhancement Spell-upgraded in that moment and retreated swiftly, “Is this your kink of something…”
“Hmph… how many times you think you can keep doing this?” ROOT scoffed. “I am faster than you, I only need one minute and…”
“hey.” Another voice suddenly spoke. ROOT in her first form revealed shock for the first time.
“Your enemy…” The man with the burning red hair had daggers shooting out of his eyes. “is me!”
Hong—
…
A simple direct punch had the force of a cannon. ROOT was too late to defend and her body was hit. The next second, the bones all over her body started to crack…
The heavy punch from Phantom Dawn managed to snap ROOT’s bones. That was something no one present expected. But ROOT’s regen speed also surprised everyone… the crumbled mesh of flesh floated into the air with impossible speed and reshaped itself within 3 seconds.
“Not only the body, even the hair, clothes have recovered fully..” Feng Bujue looked at the sky and something seemed to dawn on him…
ROOT’s recovery this time did reveal some problem. The regen of her previous forms were basically a pool of half liquid coagulating into a solid. But this time, her recovery was more like… a map of wrong coordination instantly readjusting themselves into the correct alignment.
“Preposterous…” After ROOT recovered, she lowered her eyes to focus on Phantom Dawn, “The strength of data has increased…”
“Stop wasting time!” Phantom Dawn did not stop. With a roar, he burst forth. “I’ll beat you into dust!”
“Kid…” ROOT used both hands to unleash four Shigans. “Don’t think I don’t dare to kill you…”
Four giant balls of energies like four pillars that ground the earth fell from the sky.
“Ha! Come at me!” Phantom Dawn adjusted his trajectory through the air and evaded the shapeless attacks one after another.
“How did he do that?” Vishnu who observed the battle gasped.
“Simple… because he can see…” Shiva mumbled. “Things that we can’t.”
“Xiao Tan!” Feng Bujue shouted at that moment.
“What?” Xiao Tan answered.
“Help.”
“Okay.”
The two moved at the same time, like gale twirling into the sky.
Feng Bujue’s Void Steps had the effect of ‘increasing jump height twice’ and ‘increasing the effect of leg-based skill by 30 percent’ so his mastery of Geppo was beyond adept and the speed he could achieve had surpassed sonic speed. While for Xiao Tan, even though he did not have the buff from a legendary equipment, with his own physique, he was able to catch up to Feng Bujue, that was truly awe-inspiring.
The two came to support Phantom Dawn and they slowly approached ROOT in the air. At the same time, the three surrounded her and used their ultimate!
Phantom Dawn combines fists and palm strikes, every raindrop size hit was strong enough to shatter a mountain.
Feng Bujue held a golden glow in each hand and his movement was hard to predict, a mix of false and real.
Xiao Tan extended both blades, his accuracy lethal and dangerous.
The three were the best players and even though each covered only one corner, they looked out for each other. Especially Feng Bujue and Xiao Tan, their cooperation was flawless.
“Such audacity!” ROOT finally could not resist it anymore and shouted in anger. Facing 3 alone, she had to be careful and thus was slowly forced back. But… since she was already in her first form, there was already no return. When she was truly cornered, she would…
“Tendril Barrage Devastator!” ROOT shifted around and millions of tendrils expanded from her body, covering the moon and sky. From a far, it looked like a flower of sin bloomed in the night sky.
The 9 phantoms, time wardens, juries; audience in the market servers; shiva, Vishnu and Yama on the street; Red Iron who was helping Sharp Gale with his wound with the shit-like material; 23 who had returned to the battlefield… they were in despair seeing this devastating skill.
Brother Jue, Xiao Tan and Phantom Dawn were extremely close to ROOT… facing this nuclear explosion of a skill, much less evade, they wouldn’t have the time to react. The three were swallowed by the tendrils and disappeared almost instantly…
The tendrils kept spreading and they did not spot. The tendril reached down and touched the ground. Each tendril was like a cannon and was strong enough to leave a deep crater on the ground. Millions of tendrils exploded, it was an actual supernova that had no target because everything was going to be swallowed. One could say that… in terms of a medium range skill, this skill’s damage was greater than dragon slave.
“Fuck… Run!” When Shiva saw the tendrils continue to expand, and slowly approach them, he immediately shouted.
“This bunch of monsters… this is ridiculous…” Yama lowered her head as she darted away.
“Those three should be dead, right…” Vishnu said as he ran. He tried to control his copper to stop the tendrils from expanding, but to his consternation… his attempt at defense was shattered almost instantly. Even Red Iron had carried Sharp Gale on his shoulder and started to run.
“Madam, we have to go!” Seeing 23 standing numbly at where she was, staring blankly at the sky, he quickly warned her.
“Impossible… this is impossible…” 23 mumbled on her lips. “I will not accept… this future…” 23 focused her gaze, she refused to retreat. The claws shot out from her and she darted forward towards the centre of the flower.
“Hey!” Red Iron gasped in shock. “What the hell…” His logical circuit could not comprehend this situation.
“Feng Bujue!” 23’s claws lashed endlessly, tearing at the tendrils that came at her. “if you are still alive…” She shouted. “Answer me!”
