Chapter 510: Armor Peripherals Storage Building (2) (1/2)
”Raiden, take his attention!” Amry shouted as she began blazing upwards using her Pyrokinesis. Her whole body was on but her clothes weren't being burnt.
Next to her, Kazeyoshi was also floating as they were once again trying to combine their Abilities as one.
”Don't command me! I'm your leader now!”
Even though Raiden retorted like that, his sledgehammer could be seen appearing in his hands as he aimed to smash it towards the Gold Automaton who finally moved from its place.
Upon seeing Raiden rushing towards him, the Gold Automatons pulled that paddle-like weapon behind him. It took a stance similar to a baseball batter as it waited for Raiden's hammer to fall down.
”So that's how you want it, huh. Lightning Hammer!” Raiden shouted the name of his Skill as he seemingly blinked out of existence.
A split second later, he reappeared behind the Gold Automatons, lightning streaking across his whole body and onto his sledgehammer.
Bzzzt!
As the lightning crackled, his sledgehammer swung down towards the Gold Automaton whose back was still turned to him.
CLANG!
Break!
”Raiden!” Hiroda, who was preparing a Magic Spell, shouted in horror as he watched the Lightning Chieftain fly across the room and embed deep inside the sturdy wall.
No, it's not just him. Every Heroes and Transcendent who went over the second half of the ground floor were stricken with horror upon seeing Raiden who was supposed to be the strongest among them.
Hikari wasn't included since I had her step back and let her watch alongside us.
Before his attack hit the Gold Automaton, it instantly brandished its paddle weapon at its back, hitting Raiden squarely on his chest.
Although he saw that attack coming from the Gold Automaton and he reacted accordingly, it was too fast for him. His Temporal Accelaration's activation was a split second slower.
His weapon also broke from that brief clash. When he returned to Earth, I gave him a new weapon from those I looted from all the Transcendents we faced. However, it seemed that its durability was close to wearing out after fighting against the Automatons.
Looking around the other Heroes and Transcendents, most of them were already unarmed while the others had their weapons close to breaking.
There's no doubt that it was a tough fight for them even with Hikari supporting them with her buff skills.
After Raiden was sent flying away, the idiot couple above who were preparing something backpedaled. Instead of sending their Blazing Hurricane that they were culminating above, they charged forward instead, enclosed by it.
BANG!
Unfortunately, the result was the same. The couple was sent flying away by the Gold Automaton's paddle weapon. Kazeyoshi recovered quicker and he successfully caught Amry before the girl suffered the same fate as Raiden.
With three of their strongest Transcendents down for the count and were brought down with just two strokes of that paddle, the remaining Heroes and Transcendents started shaking from where they were.
Too bad for them, now that they crossed that line, the Gold Automaton turned its mechanical eyes towards them.
According to Hikari, they were 21 when they left that green-marked zone where they sought refuge earlier. And they found three more groups that were having the same difficulty as them.
With 30 Transcendents in their group, they managed to defeat any obstacles and reach this place.
