Chapter 4014: Kraken II

Sup!

'I seemed like, I will have to use it.' I thought and pressured the air released from my shoes, from three sides.

I used the force absorbed to collect air and released it with high pressure.

The pressure sent me left, but also spun me into the air the way, I wanted.

I avoided the tentacle coming at me by inches and moved toward the one coming toward me at a really high speed.

I hope I won't get hit by it. It would be a one nasty end.

The tentacle reached me, but like all tentacles before it, it didn't get me first, but my lance, which pierces through it, using its own force against it.

Still, it's not easy. Some of that force is getting transferred to me.

I am storing, controlling, and absorbing it. This is not enough; some of that force is transferring in my body, which is at near breaking limit.

Crack!

I heard the sound; I wished to hear and release the counterforce to elevate the pressure on my body.

The tentacle froze while I fell down.

I watched it turn into moats of light and went above my head. Increasing the number.

I barely glanced at it as I am more focused on the tentacles coming from below me.

Sup!

Once again, two blasts of air released from my shoes, adjusting my position, while I brought my lance into the position.

Sup!

Once again, the blast released, but not from the armor, but from the lance itself.

It also has that faction, but it couldn't store the force.

That is the job of the armor, which I had transferred into the lance through my hands. Which contains a small, compressed air engine.

Crack!

It went down toward the tentacle coming at me and pressed pierce through before cracking it up.

Thud!

I landed on the frozen tentacles the next moment, before jumping away, while it turned into the motes of energy.

Crack!

Second later, the lance pushed into another tentacle and cracked its core, before I dodged with air bursts and pierced through other tentacles.

I cracked core after core without ever touching the ground.

I focused on nothing else other than the tentacle.

I need to be 100% focused on them because they could kill me or send me out of this

challenge. I didn't come this far to let that happen.

So, I crushed the tentacle with math and precision.

There are hundreds of calculations going through my mind, calculating the trajectory, speed, and power of the tentacles coming at me and which would be the best target.

Everything needs to be perfect, the slightest mistake will be over.

In this challenge, every hour, I could spare myself a few moments to look around, but this time, I didn't.

The stakes are too high.

There are a thousand tentacles, with only thirteen people dealing with them.

It's an extremely dangerous situation and I can be distracted, even by those with the greatest threat to me.

They are a bigger threat than this, but not at this hour. In this hour, this Kraken is the biggest threat.

They will deal with it, before turning to me.

There is no other choice for them. If they dared to get distracted by me; they would be finished by the Kraken and they are smart enough to understand that priority.

Second pa.s.sed and turned into the minutes, while I kept moving around the tentacles.

I had cracked the core of many, but they didn't seem to lessen.

They kept coming and coming at me, and I kept finis.h.i.+ng them with my hand.

Which, too, I had changed a little while fighting. It's extremely risky, but it has made the lance more deadly.

I had also made some small changes to my armor, in managing the force. Several times, it had increased so much, that my body had reached the breaking point.

It had become slightly better, but I would still face immense pressure.

RAAAAAA!

I heard the Kraken scream again, but I didn't even look at it.

I am focused on the tentacles coming at me and dealing with them, one after another.

Crack!

My lance shot through my hand like a bullet and pierced through the tentacle perfectly.

It froze it, and the lance came out of it on its own and shot toward me.

I picked it up mid-air and pierced it into another tentacle before removing it and shooting at another tentacle.

There is no magic here, on it coming back to hand automatically after, it is done with the tentacle. No, there are just good designs and perfect calculations.

There is a kinetic and mechanical structure in that lance, that is doing that amazing things.

I wish I knew what I know now when I was young. I would have been able to really do amazing

things.

Crack!

My lance cracked another core in the tentacle before I landed on it, before jumping left and then moving right in the air, without stepping anything, avoiding the three tentacles, before cracking the core at fourth.

They are everywhere, and they want to kill me, but I will not be dying.

It's this construct and anything that will come at me.

More and more tentacles kept coming at me and turned into the motes of light. I would really

like to see what time it is.

In all the challenges, I carefully counted time, but not in this one.

I am fully focused on tentacles and nothing else. I didn't dare to waste my focus on even

counting the time.

Which is not much important.

As long as we crack all the tentacles, it will disappear. We didn't have to kill it.

It would also disappear if we lasted in front of it for an hour. It is a challenge of survival, not

of the killing of the enemy.

I moved through the tentacle and even now, after so much, my feet had yet to touch the

ground.

It's not like, I am doing it intentionally, but it is a viable option.

Being on the ground closes in direction for me. Being in the air provides much greater freedom, I could move in any direction I want to due to the air jects.

Crack Crack Crack!

Seconds pa.s.sed, and I destroyed a lot of tentacles, but they seemed endless.

They kept coming at me. It didn't much matter to me; I would keep destroying them. After an

hour is over, everything will disappear.

Crack!

I cracked another tentacle and looked, but saw only one tentacle coming toward me.

Crack!

I moved with the jets and cracked it, and for the first time, there were no tentacles.

I looked around and saw Iarys and Hayat attacking the last two tentacles.

As they did, it froze the whole Kraken, before it turned into the motes of light and which went

to all of us and changed the numbers above our heads

Thud!

A moment later, all eyes turned toward me. All six of them who had remained looked at me as

I landed on the ground.

"I have seen many battles, but yours is the best one, I have ever seen, better than even Primes fighting," Iarys praised with a smile.

It didn't make me happy, Instead it had turned me cautious, seeing the way they were looking

at me.
