“I must admit that I’m surprised by your ability to comprehend,” Zero walked to him and said while squatting down, “You’re the first one who can comprehend this and counterattack without being given any explanation.”
The Pure Witch picked up the rifle on the ground, carefully explored it for a moment and said, “Rare materials, exquisite processing techniques… Is this a snow powder weapon as well? The items you created are really scary, however, they do not pose much threat to me. I’ve been watching the entire battle closely. Most of the slender tubes in the tunnel and the thick iron tubes behind the camp rely on the operators and you could not even see my movements.” She shook her head and said, “It’s impossible for you to defeat me, I’ve devoured over a thousand warriors and even an Extraordinary over the years.”
Suddenly, a green plastic box appeared between them.
A loud explosion suddenly rang through the roof. The glass in the classroom crunched and even the entire floor of the building was blown up with a hole in it. The air current swept the old iron stairwell door to the ground.
“It’s not because I have a strong ability to comprehend, but your stage setting is too lousy!” Roland reappeared in the corner of the rooftop. He was gasping for air as the sharp pain was still fresh in his memory. He could now understand the feeling of those who were amputated before they died. He ‘made’ an explosive to bomb both Zero and himself into pieces at the same time as he could not tolerate it anymore.
“Lousy?” Zero who was newly born raised her eyebrows and said, “It’s in your memory.”
“However, it’s created through your ability. It’s six o’clock in the evening, the busiest time on the campus! How is it possible that there’s no one on the field? It seems exquisite but it’s just a setting full of loopholes.” He was thinking of a countermeasure while delaying for time. “Is this the way you devour your opponent? Force them into despair so that they’ll give up and obediently dedicate their knowledge and skills to you?”
The skills of the Pure Witch were somewhat similar to the Extraordinary, or at least Roland had only seen such power and speed on Ashes. The Pure Witch could only be hurt by powerful explosives from which he could not escape either as it was difficult to hit her with only a normal firearm.
However, was it really that simple? After three resurrections, Roland could already feel his sweaty back. His heart was pounding faster than before as if he just ran around the field and he was physically weaker.
Perhaps the number of the resurrections was limited.
In this case, it was not a good idea to bomb an entire building with high explosives… The score was already three to one now and he must quickly regain the position.
There was no doubt that what he needed was a weapon that could both attack and defend.
“Although I don’t quite understand what you’re talking about, however, isn’t it good to surrender?” Zero said with her head tilted to one side, “It’s a wise choice even if it means that you have to give up as death is a torture to anyone.”
“You can keep those words to yourself.” Roland loudly shouted. “Ironman!”
A red metal armor suddenly appeared in front of him and he quietly recited “Start the program” in his heart after walking into the armor from behind.
A narrow display screen appeared at the front of the helmet, however, the armor did not close up by itself and no artificial intelligence responded to his command.
The armor fell to the ground straight away, even before he managed to move forward.
Zero’s blade had already cut into Roland’s neck when he got up.
