Chapter 2170: Unmatched Skills I
CLANG!
The power of the first boost coursed through me, and I moved my sword back with all my speed, and the next moment, my sword clashed against giant violet crystalline clay wings.
The Violet Vidette in front of me is from Crystal Skin Eagleman Tribe, its whole body is made of red crystal, but the vidette process had made it violet and crystalline skin granulated to signature vidette skin.
Even after its skin is granulated, its still crystalline, just granulated, and its wings are still sharp as blades, or even more; now it is vidette, they are now strong as an artifact.
The Vidette Eagleman disappeared and appeared in front of me and attacked again, wanting to slice me into two with its sharp wing from head to toe, and it is not just its wing that is attacking but also its scimitar.
Both of the attacks are powerful, and Masters could forget about countering them, much less defending against them but thankfully, I am not a Master.
CLANG!
I disappeared from my spot and appeared a few meters left, directly in front of the coming scimitar, and countered it with my sword.
"You are good; no wonder the higher-ups have placed such big bounty on you," It said as it looked at me with surprise. "While the bounty is good, it is no use to you. So, why don't you leave?" I asked with a smile.
"Hehe, while its true the resources are useless to me, but they will be useful to my tribe, not to mention satisfaction I will get from killing you," It said with a laugh before the violet armor on its body began to light.
Seeing that, my eyes couldn't help but get light up, and I also activated the 'Second Boost' without wasting a second.
A vidette is no joke, especially the one which has a vidette armor, even with all my strength. I have to be careful against it; a powerful, well-placed attack could bring an end to me, and that would be quite regrettable.
"I hope you will last a minute, human, it had been a while since I had fought against the humans who lasted a minute after I used my armor," It said and came at me, and the speed and power of its attack are ten times greater than the earlier attack.
CLANNG!
Its scimitar came with the speed of the laser, directly aiming against my head, but my sword was not slow either and it had stopped its sword before it could reach me, but as I did that, its wing folded unnaturally and came at me like a knife to slice me apart.
I dodged the attack and appeared a few meters behind and saw its scimter coming at me again and with a wing behind.
The eyes of Eagleman are one of best, and they are this vidette b.a.s.t.a.r.d's one of best weapons against me, considering we have about a similar level of power. It could be said, this vidette is much harder to deal with than the last one I had fought.
CLANNG CLANNG CLANNG
It came at me attack after attack, and I continued to defend against them, harnessing more and more power from the second boost.
That is not all I am doing; I am collecting data from it every second and laying out my net. I will have to use everything; I have to deal with this vidette. It is not just a regular enemy whose heart I could pierce and immediately begin the harvesting.
Though I am planning on killing this vidette, not only because it is a vidette but also because it is something the Mysterious tree needs.
Last time, the vidette was enough to bright the mysterious seed sprout; I wonder what changes it will bring this time. The mysterious tree is interested in it; it is very clear as it is ferociously consuming all the vidette energy that is coming at me.
A few minutes pa.s.sed as we continued clas.h.i.+ng, it attacking, and I am defending. It is the best strategy seeing its experience and fine combat style, which I could not contend against even with all the combat experience and hard work I had put in.
I should stick to this strategy. If I tried going offense, there is a high chance it might be able to evade my sword and attack my body, and that would be disastrous; there are high chances that I might die by it.
As time pa.s.sed, its serious expressions filled with burning self-confidence began to change. There is anger to begin to appear with little doubt.
"The bounty on you is well-deserving," It said while attacking me from all the directions, which gave its voice the omnidirectional feel.
"You are very powerful, and if we give you a chance to grow like this, it won't be long before you became a Grandmaster, and that would be disastrous for us," It added, and its aura burst out with full power that it begins to affect the s.p.a.ce around itself.
'Third Boost,' 'Crown of Roses,'
I did not waste time activating the third boost, and on top of that, I also activated the crown of roses and used all the internal energy I had. I could not let it alone have the sensory advantage, especially when it had boosted the power to such a degree.
"Its time for you to die!" It said and came at with the earthshaking might that only videttes could have; it is extremely hard for other powerhouses to display such might before they reached the Grandmaster cla.s.s, even I could not do that.
CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG
It had begun to attack me like it wanted to cut me into the thousands of pieces, and it would have if I had not had activated the crown of roses on time.
It is slightly more powerful than the vidette I had fought earlier and a lot more skillful when it uses its full power. It seemed like it had worked hard, especially on using its strength at its full potential when it used every bit of its strength.
I could tell it would really help it because it is terrifying with skill and precision. If I did not have the crown of roses and defensive fighting style, I would have been killed by now, even if I had the raw power to match it.
