Chapter 161: One Last Trick

When Hat Trick's gaze befell the Locus, at that terror of a variant that had single-handedly lain waste to an entire city on its own, and his time perception slowed to a brief crawl as his brain worked to itsrainbow eyes poised so hatefully against hi but his death

But how? This was Hat Trick's thought as he saw the Locus appear so suddenly The Locus was supposed to be all the way out at the battle site Why was it here?

The ansas simple Teleportation Well, it would have been a simple answer had Hat Trick actually bothered to check on the stream

But instead, Aldrich bet that once Seismic had died, Hat Trick had probably just coht the city was guaranteed to fall and thus had zero relevance to hi towards Hat Trick

After all, ere a few hundred thousand lives to him but just more voices that needed to be silenced?

Hat Trick, befitting of the strength of an A class hero, reacted nigh instantaneously to Okeanos, throwing his fireball towards the Locus The sphere of flaainst Okeanos in a crackling explosion of fire that scattered outwards with enough range to easily engulf an entire house wholesale

The shadow of Okeanos's figure darkened through the raging fla on his shell but not doing any real dae

"Sht!" Hat Trick fuer to spin it for another trick to access another power Probably onein close combat

But too late

Okeanos used Burst, shrouding hireen bolts, and then ht

"Behind me-," Hat Trick said as he whirled around ready to counter attack or evade Instead, all Hat Trick saas just e calmly with his arms crossed

It was natural for Hat Trick to expect Okeanos to have made an attack at his blind spot like that

That was the le people with teleportation or powers that functioned sih Okeanos had actually attacked like that several tiet behind his enemies, but Aldrich had countered that, and now, Okeanos had learned

Instead, Okeanos had ht underneath Hat Trick Before Hat Trick could recover and react, Okeanos reached out and grabbed Hat Trick's ankle in a powerful grip

"Wha-," ed Hat Trick before Okeanos slaround with all his treh several evolutions, one of which had actively increased Okeanos's size and h the roof

Hat Trick shot doards as a hu out his painful descent as he crashed into the ground below He broke through the huge ad board, splitting it in half in a shower of severed, sparking wires andout a sizable crater into the concrete below

Hat Trick coughed up spit and blood and air froh several meters of solid concrete ht not have been as tough as Seismic, but he could still easily survive a throw like that

The attack hadhim

"Follow that up," said Aldrich "Show me that punch of yours you were so proud of Make it hurt"

Okeanos nodded, and as he fell towards Hat Trick, cocked back a fist, and the biomechanical piston structure in his forearreen and blue lined across the shell glowing halfway It was a half-charged punch as Aldrich did not want Okeanos to cos

Still, when Okeanos let that punch loose right into Hat Trick's chest, the effect was as if an energy boy poured out of Okeanos's fist with an explosive sound effect The outburst of ocean wave shaped energy spread all around Okeanos, quickly engulfing hi sphere that ate away at everything it came into contact with

The sphere reached up to Aldrich, and he just casually took a few steps backwards as his perception stat along with Volantis's truesight let hiy was there

When the energy fro crater with Okeanos standing at the center and Hat Trick lying down still, a fist shaped indent nailed into his chest
