New Game+ - Chapter 463: The Victor Of The Fight
The entire team charged towards the werewolves that pounced with great hunger.
John positioned himself at the back and used his machine gun mounted on his shoulder to shoot at the incoming enemies. His two hands held on a rifle and began to charge up the Realm of the explosion.
He took aim and shot.
BANG!
A massive burning explosion happened in the room and burned five werewolves at the forefront. The others were blown away. But despite this terrifying explosion, the shock waves that the explosion created and the fire had limited force in the Covenant’s direction.
The attack he just used was a harnessing of Meryl’s light. The WGP’s Origins tech allowed it so that simple paths like this would trigger or combine with other techs. The Realm that John indicated on the bullet directed where the bomb would explode out, and the Origin energy was used to modify another technology to follow the Realm. Hellfire and Meryl’s Path were born.
Through the manipulation of Realm and the enhancement of the weaponized Path, the team was slowly materializing a technology where their attacks would not hit or affect their allies.
This was one of Unlocked to Overcome’s largest hurdles to make it perfect for gamers like the Covenant to fight. It was the elimination of Friendly Fire.
The explosions threw the werewolves back. But those on the back showed resilience as they were able to withstand it.
“Tough bastards!” John cursed and switched ammo.
Danny activated his full berserker mode and charged like a madman.
He attacked the werewolves closest to death or incapacitation due to the attack.
Dara and the Golden Exoskeleton charged at the center of the pack and were determined to meet the Alpha werewolf in combat. So they punched and slashed their way through the pack, and Dara released all her armor pieces which exploded out towards the wolves.
Each metal piece created a small explosion that knocked down a wolf, and it opened the path towards Amir’s son.
Dara had no suit, but her fist was glowing bright red.
The werewolf slashed out, but a gold shield met the claw.
BANG!
The Golden Exoskeleton was knocked back, but the werewolf was still fast enough to claw another attack.
SLASH!
Titan accelerated and moved as fast as he could to slash the arm of the werewolf.
Dara took the opportunity, and a piece of her arm had returned, and Dara punched out.
BOOM!
Another massive explosion occurred with a specified Realm directed at the wolf. It was as if Dara’s punch produced a powerful beam of fire.
But even with such combined effort, the wolf remained strong and bit down.
Danny arrived at the side slapped Dara back to keep her from getting bitten.
BANG!
Another bullet exploded, and an ice explosion occurred. The Coven was pushed back at the force but gave the group enough time to evade the attack.
Danny was the first to keep moving and rampaged to stop the incoming wolves.
“That punch didn’t even phase him!” Dara cursed.
“It’s like he’s Meng!” Titan cursed as he continued to evade the incoming wolves.
But suddenly, the Alpha began to eat more of the nearby wolves.
“It’s working! The fact that he needs to eat means he is trying to regenerate more energy!”
“I’ll be out of ammo if we have to focus on killing the rest! We need to end this quickly!”
“Then let’s go with that gamble. It’s time to see if my Skill works on him!” The Golden Exoskeleton ordered. The group reformed, making another daring charge at the pack of wolves.
Explosions continued to ring out as a battle progressed.
Halley continued to watch the fight from the submarine and wasn’t even worried. She then sensed it and frowned.
“Now, why would you pay me a visit, Amir? I’m sure that this isn’t allowed. Overcomers shouldn’t meddle in fights like these.”
“And yet, they had me fight that kid.” Amir walked into the room and observed the fight.
“Well, you know his boss. Seeker has high expectations and is pushing his luck to be an Overcomer.”
“He has the mindset and confidence but not the skill. So I’m here to tell you to pull your team back. They are too green for my son.”
“Hmm… I wonder about that. Arthur estimated that this team has a seventy-three percent chance of defeating your little boy.”
“That arrogant little mathematician is-” Amir couldn’t continue. He saw something strange. His son was being overpowered.
The Gold Exoskeleton led the Covenant, who kept fighting and clashing with the dangerous attacks of Amir’s sons. The rest were focused on blocking and taking blows in the place of the Golden Exoskeleton. and the longer she was around Amir’s son, the weaker the strikes and slow his speed became.
The rest of the werewolves became even weaker than their claws, and bites could not break the metal Exoskeletons of the team.
The Unlocked team quickly took advantage of the weakening and began to
Without saying a word, Amir left.
“Don’t insult the man called Precision. He is the leader of the Covenant and knows them best. If he says this team will win, they will win. He’s not just a mathematician. He’s a prophet!” Halley chuckled as Amir left.
The battle in the base was turning to the advantage of the Covenant. Danny was whirling and turning, responding to the calls of his allies which happened at the last second. Dara’s multi-tasking ensured that her attacks always kept the wolves at bay. Titan would aid in stopping Amir’s son from making an attack and would bounce to the other side and incapacitate another wolf.
John was running out of ammo. But after his fourth shot using one of the expensive bullets with Realms, he found no need to shoot another and focused on killing the werewolves.
But the most important role fell on the Golden Skeleton, who kept clashing with Amir’s son. The longer she stayed close to this alpha wolf, the weaker he got. And even the wolves around them were turning sluggish.
The fight continued on and on, and a few minutes later, the victor was decided.
“That was… intense!” Danny gave an excited laugh. His suit was damaged, and several claw marks could be seen on the arms. The Exoskeleton’s weapons were barely holding on. Amir’s son made a last-second rampage but ultimately lost as the other members of the Covenant ensured that the Gold Exoskeleton would not get harmed.
Next to him, a massive exoskeleton with thick armors stood up. The Exoskeleton was barely functioning, but the parts were slowly recovering.
“This one defeated Basilisk’s Squadron’s Commanders, right? We should be as strong as a Ranked Hero now.” A young woman who was piloting the hulking Exoskeleton laughed.
“Um… Guys… The dad’s here.” Another Exoskeleton appeared next to them and pointed in the direction.
Amir Mann slowly approached and applauded the team.
“Brilliant battle! The Covenant of the Strongest is now as strong as ever.”
“Overcomer, I hope you don’t bear any grudges for our little interruption of your son’s meal. We are still acting within protocols.”
“Grudge? Of course not. The limbs of your allies are enough. His cells actually calmed down in this fight. So you actually did me a favor.” Amir chuckled as he approached.
The strongest Covenant was trembling as Amir approached, and everyone had their guard up. All but one who was focused on pinning down Amir’s son.
“I must praise her. You wouldn’t have won without her. She’s almost a Ranked Hero. To fight my son and come out unscathed. This is the first time this has happened.” Amir smiled as he observed the Golden Exoskeleton that was pinning Amir’s son on the ground with a massive shield.
“It’s her Skill.” Dara frowned.
“Relax, Dara. Amir’s right. Just accept it. I mean, Kristine’s been with the boss while we were training. Obviously, she would be stronger than us.” Danny laughed.
“Skill? What’s her skill?” Amir was curious.
“I can calm people down.” Kristine smiled as she approached Amir. A young man was on the floor where the werewolf once was.
“Oh? What a Skill.”
“Yeah. I don’t want to brag, but even before I became an Unlocked, I managed to calm a berserked Lynd Indigo!” Kristine smiled as she recalled the first instance of her adventuring with Seeker and being tossed for calming a mad Lynd who accidentally became Inhuman.
“Oh? That’s interesting.” Amir gave Kristine a strange stare.. His eyes turned dangerous, and the Covenant immediately stood before Kristine without hesitation.
