Chapter 920: Grapple (1/2)
Sam had a myriad of thoughts going through his mind while he fought with them.
He never had a problem with dealing nine to ten opponents of same level. There are times he defeated dozens of people who are powerful than him much less people of the same level. Except when he was attacked by the players.
He has a whole new understanding of the Solar fragments, the previous batch of soldiers who came are disposable at best when compared to the current batch.
These nine people, could really put on a fight and even when he used the light element and shadow element, the fastest right behind the space element which he cannot use because of the restrictions he himself put on.
They have intense coordination between themselves that was even hard to achieve in one of Sam's own teams and they all attacked simultaneously with perfect sync without any communication. It is almost impossible to predict his position when he is in light elemental fusion, but they did.
The only reason he didn't use the fire element is because they would be having certain level of immunity due to their similarities and the fight would be decided on who would last longer.
As for the rest of the elements, if he cannot get near them with the light and shadow element, it is almost impossible with rest of them. He would not only be slower, he would also be an easier target before he could make an proper attack or defensive move.
This is the first time he was this helpless even with the large number of abilities he has. They are a perfect team and now he is thinking of some kind of ideas on how to train his own teams with their strategies.
And all these thoughts while he was kicking their asses with void style and the fire elemental fusion. Now that they are all on purely equal terms it is just a good old fashioned fist fight, which Sam is winning.
The opponents couldn't keep the fire elemental fusion for as long as Sam and his use of void style is making them suffer injuries that are otherwise impossible in their form and when the first one ran out of energy and his fusion turned into partial fusion, Sam's hand directly went into his heart and the void style exploded the heart.
He moved to the next target instantly and his punch landed in the guts which was the last attack that made the fusion disappear.
And the next punch that landed on the face made him bleed though the orifices on his face and faint on the spot leading to a slow death.
The next target was simpler as it was a jab of his palm to the neck causing his throat to break.
The team is falling off one after another and soon there are only three members left.
They looked around to see if there is another way out. But the beasts are almost already done with the rest of the Solar Fragments so they cannot escape easily.
When Sam is about to proceed to kill the next one, they accepted their fate, but at this exact moment, a palm came out of nowhere and stopped Sam's fist.
Sam pulled his hand back and looked at the leader who just blocked the punch.
”Not bad you recovered faster than I thought.”
Sam said and he looked at the guy carefully. He is examining his physical aspects to see if he can find anything wrong with him. Any sign of weakness would be helpful.
The leader didn't speak though, he activated fire elemental fusion and started attacking Sam.
Sam who is also in his fusion form is attacking him in the same way.
The fight is becoming intense and soon Sam suddenly stopped in his tracks and changed his fusion form. He deactivated his fire elemental fusion and changed it to the light elemental fusion.
His speed increased and he took out the reaper sword once again, he started slicing the leader who is stronger than Sam.
The main reason he changed out of the fire elemental fusion, that guy has a slight advantage over him. Extremely slight and Sam doesn't want any advantage to that guy.
And this time it worked since no other Solar fragments are there to cover his back.
He stabbed the guy in the back, but he didn't go deep enough to kill him or do some critical damage, because he almost caught Sam's hands.
Sam moved away from that spot and came from another side, he left a slash on the left hand, but had to dodge a punch on hair's breadth.
The next slash was made at his thigh and a kick was missed by another hair's breadth.
