Chapter 3162 Battle II
"They are close," said Heleu with a shaking voice as the Grimms appeared close to us. There is only around a mile of distance between us.
Which they will cross in a few seconds.
I have already picked several targets, and I will attack. The only thing I have to do is cross the distance and fight them.
Both armies got closer and closer to each other for a second, before finally clas.h.i.+ng.
"Kill the sp.a.w.ns!"
A loud battle cry rang out as the armies met and clashed. The clash was so powerful that it shook me, but I continued moving.
"Die, human!" said the blue Ratman, appearing directly in front of me with a black dagger in its hand, which is moving at me at a very fast speed.
The Ratman is at Mid-Primary III. It does not have a bloodline, but I will have to kill it to reach the Grimm with the bloodline.
Burst 90%.
The immense power flooded into every part of me. I decided to go high from the beginning. This is a battle where enemies could come from any side. The more prepared I am, the better I will deal with whatever coming my way.
I dodge the attack, by an inch and moved my sword forward.
Puch!
The Ratman's eyes widened seeing the blade, and it tried to dodge it, but my sword was too fast. It had touched its chest before it could activate any defensive method, before piercing through it.
A moment later, the Ratman had disappeared, and I moved ahead.
Hun!
I had just taken a few steps to reach my target when I saw a white ax coming toward me. It was a Bearman that is attacking me, with the intention of hacking me and a beastman beside me to death.
CLANG! Puch!
"Huma"
I defended, and it opened its mouth and let out a few words when it suddenly stopped seeing me in front of me, with my sword at its chest, before it disappeared.
I nodded at the Beastman and moved ahead.
The battle is chaotic, like all battles are, the Grimms are a little more organized than us, which is a plus point for them. Unlike them, we are completely disorganized, with most people, being never fought in armies like this.
Though there are many like me, who had fought in armies and had a great experience in fighting the Grimms.
These are dancing on the battlefield. Fighting, killing before moving to another prey, without wasting a moment.
I had to kill another Grimms before I reached the prey. It is fighting alongside other Grimms against horned race women.
The red Crockman seemed to have sensed me coming toward it, as its eyes turned to me.
"Handle it for a moment. I will have finished this human in a second," said the Red Crockman to its friend and appeared beside me, before swinging its red saber at me with a power that surprised me.
It is a High-Primary III Crockman, and the bloodline makes it far stronger than average Grimms of its level.
I could have chosen weaker prey, but I chose the strong from the beginning. As a killing, it will give me an enormous boost in advancement, which will increase my chances of surviving this battle further.
It could also backfire. It can defeat me, and it will be all over.
CLANG!
Our weapons clashed, and immediately a surprise couldn't help but appear on its face.
"A good prey!" it said and grinned, seeing me stopping its saber without shaking, while I also smiled back before my expression turned serious.
As it attacked me with much greater strength than before.
CLANG!
Our weapons clashed again, and this time, too. There was no shake from me; instead, I smiled brighter.
"Try harder," I harder taunted, but instead of getting angry like normal Grimms would do. the Crockman laughed, while its eyes shone in the powerful killing intent.
"Since you want me to try hard. I will try harder," it said, and a thick red aura exploded from it. It is so powerful that it had pushed away several humans and Grimms fighting around us.
The aura moved up and formed a bloodline phantom; seeing that, my eyes couldn't help, but turn serious.
"Die, human!" I screamed and swung its saber at me. The attack is dangerous, especially the red light radiating from the blade. It is hotter than the fire, and burning the air itself.
I did not think it would use its full power quickly. While I wanted to fight it for at least a minute to get to know its combat style, it is fine too.
Burst 100%.
I activated the full burst and swing my sword. Since it is not willing to hold anything back, I will not do it either.
With the full power of the burst, I swing my sword at it.
CLANNG!
My sword clashed against its saber, shaking me immediately, while at the same time. Red light enveloped me thoroughly, and I had experienced its full power.
It is not just extremely hot, but also has a powerful binding property. It had frozen me the moment it enveloped me. I felt like I was stuck in solid concrete, with no way to escape.
A big smile appeared on its face and it immediately. It swings its saber at me for the killing strike.
No change occurred until its saber reached halfway when suddenly all the red light covering me had vanished and I moved my sword in defense.
CLANNNG!
I stopped its saber while it watched with wide eyes.
"How?" it asked after a moment of silence. "You are not the only one with the tricks," I said and immediately a smile appeared on its face. A smile filled with anger.
"Good. I like to see how long you survive," it said and attacked, while I moved my sword in response.
CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG
Our weapons clashed hard and fast, with each attack being stronger and faster than before.
In this battle, there is no need to hold back. The quicker you finish the enemy, the sooner you will move to a different enemy.
It is a battle, not a fight. You win it by killing the maximum number of people.
We keep clas.h.i.+ng fast and hard. Its every attack is a death blow. If it hit as it intended, it will be a death blow. There is no way I will survive the saber if it hit me squarely.
Rip!
Nearly a minute later, its sword slashed through me. Giving me a gruesome wound that reached my go from my chest to my stomach.
"You have survived. You will not survive the next," it said and used that move again.
Its body bathed in red light, while it came at me with blurring speed.
It is an amazing move that caught me off guard. A move that should only be used once, especially against an enemy like me, who record everything and had clones to study everything.
It came to me, targeting my sword once again, but unlike before, moved forward, making the smile on its face brighter.
But the next moment, that smile froze when I moved left, dodging the saber, before taking the step forward, appearing directly in front of its chest.
