Chapter 23 - Impossible Fight Part One: Elons Armor (1/2)
Severe provocation.
Triggering the Transmigrator's overwhelming agitation to ensure that he would act rashly, forcing him to utilize brute force. Looking at the man's history of almost winning every encounter he might have done with his sheer luck, he wouldn't be caring a single detail that can determine the result of a hostile encounter.
And that detail was 'preparation.'
'70% chances he will immediately rush in while using some of his lackluster ability. This way, our combat power will be slightly equal,' MF thought.
MF was right in this one. If only Elon could've given enough time to think, he would appraise the devil in front of him deftly.
[Fortune's Blessing: Unsurmountable Luck is activated]
Some of the contraption was activated. Decreasing his mana assimilation capabilities, adding berserk ailment. Strangely, the heart-piercing killing formation was somehow nullified by an insect accidentally touching the gap between the concealment and into the killing formation, shifting some of the circuit's contraption.
By some awfully terrible luck, numerous mana-core eater bugs was found swarming to the newly revealed formations as they happens to appear right at every fundemental core before the wavelength of the mana socket were vulnerable, immediately neutralizing every killing contraption that was laid to massacre the Transmigrator. Foel, who noticed this, gave a finger gesture to tell MF that all killing formations were neutralized—because of bloody pure luck.
'So things will get harder, huh.'
Of course, MF had already foreseen this and a foiled plan should always come with another one behind the veil.
”HAAAAAAAAA!!”
He charged headfirst with a warcry, the man took a sword from his space pocket and imbued every enhancement and reinforcement possible from his brain, coating his sword with hellfire.
In a blink, he threw a field tearing slash, although fast but slower than what Foel could do. MF split her body right at the slash's intersection before connecting it again.
Before he could do another strike, MF slammed her limb cannon made out of tungsten into the young man's skull sideway.
The man got launched and rolled on the ground.
Not wasting any time, MF immediately pointed her cannon into the rolling man. A shot was sent, leaving the tubular hallway of the barrel with the speed of sound as the tip of the hole left a massive sonic boom that messed up the landscape. Because she used pure body energy, it took 4 month worth of concentrated physical fuel for that one shot. Where a Calamity could use their innate 'void' and mana to launch multiple of this same shot without a problem.
Right when MF imbued her gene to create new variants on various Calamities back then, she was also briskly preying on around 50 of them, consuming their flesh and 'void'. To neutralize the Transmigrator, she already prepared 80 months worth of energy before the whole battle started.
Miraculously, the propelled cancer cell was deflected to 10° toward the sky by his sword unknowingly at a perfect angle to shift the crazy momentum. The kinetic collision broke Elon's blade but he is alive.
”What a lucky bastard.” MF cracked her neck left and right, showing that it was all just a warm up. ”Seems like killing you won't be easy.”
Seeing the situation, Foel blasted a fake dark-energy blast to the humanoid Calamity. To ensure that she was seen to be on his side, Foel hurriedly flew to the downed Elon with a destroyed landscape behind him.
”Boy, are you okay?”
”I-I swear that I slashed her into two!” With sheer amount of luck, the head smash hit the acupuncture that focuses his thinking capability. After he shook his head, he shouted the keyword, ”Appraisal!”
