Chapter 477: No Escape (1/2)
”Erin, move to that spot. Leianne, block the Wind Elementals way using your Ice Domain.”
Although I didn't really need to point them in a direction on where they should place themselves, I still did it because the girls were always waiting for what I would say whenever we're on the battlefield together.
Especially this time when it's important to not let these two Rank 3 Transcendents get away.
Since I broadcasted the words I uttered to the red-skinned Transcendent when I was talking him down when he surrendered, if these two decided to escape, they would surely leave the atmosphere of Earth.
The strongest combatants of Earth were at least two days away from Earth even if they used their Space Vessels and I doubt that sly old man could just open up a portal from where he was.
If these two left the confines of the Earth, we wouldn't be able to chase after them because outside, the restriction they were receiving would be lifted. The advantage we're having against them at this moment would be voided.
That's why… we had to finish them here.
Even with the revelation that there's an organization behind them, that could be mulled over later.
”Irja, support Nysia. If you need replenishment of energy. You know where to get it. Avelin, go with her. Take care of his Metallic Shards.”
”Fleur and Yumiko. Standby here and watch out if they try to retreat upwards, you both know what to do. I'll be circling the battlefield to sneak an attack whenever I can.”
After I finished saying that, all the girls around me moved out to their respective positions.
And like what I did against the Red Wolf, I used Void Concealment to wait for the opportune moment to end the fight against the remaining two Transcendents unaware.
If at first the Wind Elemental and the long-nosed Rank 3 Transcendent were evenly matched against Yuko and Nysia, the addition of my other Companions was enough for them to panic.
The Wind Elemental opened his Domain, letting him control the Wind inside it. Due to that, he could create vacuum areas that could weaken or totally disintegrate Yuko, Erin and Leianne's attack.
Leianne's Ice Domain almost collapsed against it but when she opened her other Domain from her other Pathways plus transforming into a Glacier Fairy from her Spirit Pathway, she managed to stabilize it and even filled the vacuum with her frozen blocks of seawater that she scooped up from below, negating it.
Erin then ordered her Pillars to as well as her Shadow Clones to assist Yuko's Future clones to thoroughly block the Wind Elemental's path of retreat.
On the other side, the long-nosed Transcendent's Armored Suit's core was finally pierced by Nysia.
She managed to do it when she suddenly ejected herself out of the Sanguine Aegis, taking the long-nosed Transcendent by surprise.
Her Powergen instantly equipped itself on her body, amplifying the hit of her Morning Star, disintegrating the thick armor plates covering it.
As soon as that Powered Suit malfunctioned and almost toasted the long-nosed Transcendent, Avelin came homing in with her greataxe. Following my advice to her, her previous greataxe somehow merged with the new axe I gave her, letting the consciousness in it also inhabit her new axe.
Like my Willful Sword, it started exhibiting unique properties. For example, from behind her, her Flux Energy covering her entire body would conjure an apparition behind her almost similar to the Higher Spirits that Yumiko borrows ability from.
That apparition would then deliver a follow-up attack, copying what Avelin did.
More often than not, those who blocked her attack would be somewhat relaxed, thinking it was over. And that became the reason for their defeat.
When I sparred with her once, I was also hit by it and the strength of that apparition was no joke especially if she used an Axe Skill, it's the version of Sword Skill for her.
Apart from the two, Irja repeated what she did against the Red Wolf. Creating a cage by continuously shooting her colorful Energy Attacks nonstop before gradually reducing the space of the cage, trapping the enemy inside
In this way, the slightly drawn-out battle against the first Rank 3 Transcendents we encountered had entered its final stage.
Naturally, I wanted them to surrender by themselves but not everyone was afraid of death like the red-skinned Transcendent.
