Kapitel 241: Sentient Armor
Wrock rolled his shoulders, "I won't be testing the waters anymore, just a heads up."
A blue flame cracking with lightning crawled up his arms, spreading despair into the hearts of the enemy team.
Wrock dashed forward at a speed only Kor was able to keep up with. He seemingly teleported to the enemy team.
He quickly knocked away the Priest with a punch, sending them crashing into the ground.
The purple wolf aimed its jaws at Wrock's leg, only to bite on air. Wrock landed a kick on the Summoner responsible for the wolf, making them recoil.
He aimed for the Sorcerer next, but the Defender stood in his way. Wrock grinned, "Not quite there."
He jumped into the air, dodging a pincer attack from Nier and Kor. Those still standing looked to the sky as Wrock kicked through the air.
"[The Beast's Roar]!"
A shockwave slammed into the Defender and lifted them off their feet. The sheer force sent them flying back, and knocking into the Sorcerer during their flight.
Wrock spun and kicked Nier away before he landed. The moment his feet touched the ground he unleashed a combo onto Kor.
[Xiphoid Strike]!
[Twin Rising Cobras]!
[Second Tempo Strike]!
[Sky Rending Launch]!
With four skills being used back-to-back Kor was sent into the air completely helpless! Wrock still continued the combo relentlessly:
[Vaulting Knee]!
[Cycle Crash]!
[Hawk's Descent]!
[Guillotine Kick]!
Such a perfect execution of skills would leave any pro player speechless! Kor was also speechless, due to his shock from the damage he took in mere moments.
The Priest got up and prepared to heal their team, but a thundering shockwave slammed into them and sent them rolling further away.
Nier appeared behind Wrock and stabbed towards his heart, aiming to secure a fatal wound.
To his distress what ended up happening was not his dagger being buried into the back of Wrock, but rather an elbow into his jaw.
"Uwooohhh!"
Wrock turned to see some strange monstrous creature roaring at him. It looked like a golem, but made of flesh.
It charged over, each step shaking the ground.
"Using raw power to stop me?"
The 'golem' punched through the air, aiming for Wrock.
Wrock dashed up the arm of the golem, completely dodging the attack. He sprinted up and stood on its shoulder.
[Untouchable Power]!
[Mastered Basic Punch]!
The golem's head exploded from the blow, rendering it useless. Wrock jumped off the collapsing body.
He landed and took off towards the Priest, while he enjoyed fighting he wasn't going to give any handicaps.
The Priest had only managed to heal themself a single time before being dispatched by Wrock. They quickly turned into light.
Wrock's next target was the Summoner, the purple wolf was not enough to protect them so soon they turned into light as well.
Kor struggled to stand, not only was his HP low, but Wrock's War Sight also gave various debuffs the more attacks an enemy received.
Currently Kor was faced with two incredibly dangerous ones:
<You are affected with [Electrical Interference]!>
[Electrical Interference:
A strange energy courses through your body, interfering with your basic movements
Effects:
Reduce Dexterity by 25%]
<You are affected by [Freezing Flames]!>
[Freezing Flames:
A cryogenic flame that simultaneously freezes and burns had coursed through your body.
Effects:
•Burn - HP reduces by 1% every 5 seconds
•Frozen - Agility reduced by 40%]
Needless to say, Kor was in a precarious position.
Nier also struggled to move, while the debuffs weren't as potent as the ones that affected Kor, the backlash from the golden rune wasn't light.
By the time they were on their feet, none of their team was remaining.
"Kor, I don't think we can win this one."
Kor smiled weakly, "Yeah, I'm sorry."
"It's our fault-"
Nier suddenly coughed blood and dropped to his knees. He quickly covered his left eye, "Now?! It has to happen now?!"
Kor grit his teeth, the golden rune had one small issue with it. Rarely it would cause immense damage to the user.
'It would be best to forfeit.'
"I don't want too."
Kor watched as Wrock cracked his neck, "Well, it's time to clean up then."
'. . . Fine, but you better not regret this.'
~ ~ ~
'Hmm?' -Stars
Akiol rose an eyebrow, "Is something the matter?"
'No, I just wasn't expecting one of those armors to be here.'
"Those armors?"
'Sentient ones, they work kinda like me. Except, they have a different style.'
"Care to explain?"
'We Upper Four were given a life through a god, it assist us in our development as an individual. The Sentient Armors were crafted with an already existing soul. Meaning they once had they're own flesh and blood.'
"Oh, how neat!"
'At surface levels, but they can get a little. . . crazy. I'm sure no living being would want to be stuffed into an armor set. Thus when given an opportunity to take over those who wear them, they naturally take it.'
"Then why not just. . . not wear the armor?"
'Because Sentient Sets are naturally extremely powerful. Able to not only significantly boost defensive abilities, but also offensive as well.'
Akiol teased, "Better than a sword can?"
'Ha, not offensively. I will admit that the overall benefits are better. However I think that a mutual and beneficial exchange is better than an armor set that won't hesitate to take your body over.'
"Naturally, wait does that mean-?"
'That armor set has taken over their wearer. This also means their power has gained a significant boost.'
"Eh, Wrock's got it. I'm sure he's dealing with it now-"
Wrock was sent crashing through the ground, he barely managed to stop and land on his feet. He then realized he was all the way back at his party.
Akiol looked at Wrock, "Hmm, you good?"
"A little surprised, he became far stronger than I thought."
~ ~ ~
Just moments earlier:
Whooom~!
A red energy flooded a large portion of the arena. Wrock faced the rampant energy and whistled, "They still can continue! What a tenacious bunch!"
The energy suddenly vanished, an eerily calm filling the arena. Kor stood still, his head tilted back.
"Tch! You actually harmed me so much you Pugilist!"
Wrock frowned, "That's not Kor."
"I shall definitely pay back what you have done a thousandfold!"
Kor vanished, the moment he reappeared in front of Wrock was the moment Wrock was sent flying!
By the time he managed to recover he found himself being stared at by his party.
"Hmm, you good?"
"A little surprised, he became far stronger than I thought."
Wrock's eyes narrowed as he suddenly lifted his arms to guard himself, only to be sent flying again!
~ ~ ~
Akiol watched Wrock as he became a baseball, "Yoo, you sent him quite far!"
The Sentient Armor stared at the party, "You're his allies, then you must go too!"
Tilia lifted a finger an a bronze shield manifested into the air, blocking an attempted attack from the Sentient Armor, "Woah there pal, your fight is with Wrock. Beat him if you want to fight us next."
"I concur!" Wrock shouted as he slammed his fist into the Sentient Armor. It took only a step back from the force before throwing an attack back.
Wrock twisted his body to dodge, now well aware that receiving hits was not an option.
He grabbed the helmet and yanked it downwards whilst simultaneously lifting his knee. The helmet did not provide full facial protection, causing Kor to sustain some damage.
"Tch! You'll regret the day you messed with me!"
The Sentient Armor was about to release a wave of energy, only to hear a wonderful bell ringing.
Tring~
Yielya sighed, "Can you not do this near us?"
The explosion of energy happened across the arena, just by eyesight alone anyone could tell how chaotic it was.
Wrock left a thumbs up, "My apologies, I shall take care of this."
[The Endless Fighting Spirit]!
A blue aura exploded from Wrock and he charged forward. He yelled, "Now it's my turn!"
The explosion died down and the Sentient Armor only saw Wrock's knee headed towards their face.
Shock filled their body as the blow received was far more powerful than the last.
Wrock gripped their head with both hands and swung forward, slamming both his feet into their gut.
He landed and lifted a hand free and aimed a punch.
The Sentient Armor gripped the wrist of the arm that held onto its head, "You're not going anywhere."
"Oh this works, please hold on!"
Wrock delivered swift blows to their face, of course the armor tried to defend itself, but Wrock always managed to bypass its efforts.
"You- How- I'll-!"
Every time it tried to speak a fist would interrupt their speech.
"Enough!"
A burst of red energy push Wrock back. Kor showed signs of exhaustion, they're breathing labored.
The Sentient Armor spoke, "I will not be toyed with!"
Wrock grinned, "So that's power. You showcased your speed and power, meaning I only have speed remaining."
"What?!"
Wrock didn't answer only dashing behind Kor and landing a powerful blow.
Before the Sentient Armor could even adjust, Wrock seemed to vanish. He then reappeared at another angle to deliver another powerful blow.
Wrock upped the tempo, soon enough afterimages appeared around Kor. Unable to move from their location as each blow was powerful enough to make them stumble. Pieces of armor falling off, the parts that remained were bent and damaged.
Wrock slid to a stop, his fist by his waist.
[Untouchable Power]!
[Mastered Basic Punch]!
The force of the blow was incredible to say the least. With his stats already skyrocketing due to the affect of both his War Sight and [The Endless Fighting Spirit], the additional triple strength from [Untouchable Power] brought the blow's strength to a whole new level!
The Sentient Armor and Kor was blasted to smithereens, quickly fading into light.
Wrock turned off his Berserk Skill, his opponents were quite powerful. This left him extremely pleased.
"Ah, naturally I didn't forget you."
Wrock turned and kicked behind him, landing the blow on Nier's jaw. After receiving so many powerful punches Nier's HP had already fallen into the critical state. This final hit was more than enough to remove the last of it, and Nier fell defeated.
Naturally, this battle's victory belonged to the party!
