Chapter 574 Crushed
Chapter 574 Crushed
Of course, the Rank 3 Transcendent inside it didn't simply wait for her demise. She swiftly reacted by activating the thorns of her machine, singling out the path that we would be taking.
"Hah! What's this? Are you rushing because you can't be certain of your fate against Olive? I may be weaker than them, but I'm not some cheap chump you can defeat!" The granny inside the Thorny Queen boasted.
However, despite being prepared against me, I still couldn't help but shake my head at her confidence.
I may have been careless against the veiled woman but has she already forgotten how I killed that barbarian?
A single Sword Skill. And it's even one that only uses a single Intent.
This time, Heavy Rain is something culminated by two Intents. She possibly hadn't met a lot of Weaponmasters yet much less see their full capabilities. She has no idea about the depth of a Swordmaster.
Without replying to her, the Swordforce took the form of a raging blue dragon, biting at the thorns she produced.
At the same time as that, I pooled in a few clumps of Chaotic Energy on my left and sent it forward, dodging all those thorns to reach the surface of her Framegear.
"W-wha--!"
The shocked voice of the Rank 3 Transcendent inside was abruptly cut off as the corruption trait of Chaotic Energy ran across the hunk of metal's interior.
The thorns also stopped and broke into pieces as though brittle glasses as they fell powerlessly to the lava underneath.
It was momentary due to the robustness of her Source Energy but more than enough to enact our plan.
Nysia, who was waiting on my cue, immediately rushed forward with her Sanguine Aegis. Without the thorns blocking her path, she beelined towards the spot that I told her to focus on.
Her Metagen was once again covered by Iron Golem. Her Pillar Guardians also flew Parallel with her to support her against some manual cannons being shot by the Framegear.
And with her Flux Energy circulating intensely, her Defense Manipulation ability and every other offensive ability borne from her Meta Transcendent Pathway got activated.
The Sanguine Aegis glowed in an intense light which fully showcased her current attainment.
Mixed within her Flux Energy, I could feel the Earth Energy along with the traces of Physique-type Source Energy. Even at this moment, she's progressing smoothly on her Transcendent Pathway.
And along with that, her Elemental Energy supplemented her skills and abilities.
Swiishh!
There was no huge change that could be seen with our naked eye when she hit the Thorny Queen, however, my Energy Senses that was slowly returning to me noticed the forceful change in that Framegear's surface.
Yep. Nysia's Defense Manipulation was on point. With her complete control of Flux Energy to further empower that ability, my sword, as soon as it reached its target, felt like it got stabbed into a soft tofu. It easily plunged into the thick protective hull of the opponent's giant mecha.
Then, with Heavy Rain bursting with its Intents, it easily drilled a hole inside it.
My vision darkened and only the blue Swordforce lightened the way as dug inside it.
The Rank 3 Transcendent's Source Energy came back online at this point and tried to repel me but it was easily cut apart by my Willful Sword.
Momo popped out from the sword and sat on its flat surface. Like a pirate commanding her crew to sail ahead, the adorable dumpling pushed through.
CRASH!
At the end of its path, the cockpit containing the Rank 3 Transcendent almost blew apart.
But at this point, I canceled the skill before it destroyed the key components of the machine.
With the Swordforce subsiding, I found the Rank 3 Transcendent granny shaking from her seat.
Her eyes were bloodshot as blood slowly spilled from the side of her mouth.
Despite decisively stopping before reaching her, the wind pressure when the interior burst open was enough to drill a smaller hole in her chest.
Her Source Energy was trying to mend that hole but the traces of my Swordforce hindered its performance.
Due to that, I easily caught her.
Grabbing the Transcendent by her collar, I dragged her out using the hole I opened.
Nysia who was waiting outside immediately blinked next to me, prepared to assist me at any moment.
"Nysia, get inside and shut it down first. It should have a Material Compression Technology to store it as well."
Following my words, the woman jumped out of her Metagen and dived into the hole.
She took a glance at the Transcendent I dragged out and sighed in amazement.
I accomplished what I told her, after all.
Before long the huge Thorny Queen gradually shrunk before Nysia appeared from inside it, holding a spiky, silver ball.
That was its contained form.
Since I still had more girls to help, I didn't stall for time any longer.
"Any last words?" I coldly addressed the old woman. I activated Chaos Veil on my hand, preventing her Source Energy from continuing circulating.
"Y-you're not going to live long. Crossing our organization will be your demise."
"Sure. I'll act like you lot didn't target my world first. This is retaliation and we won't stop from here. Lord Quetzal, is it? I'll turn him into a pretzel when I see him."
With a sinister smirk, I tightened my hold on her neck, snapping it at once.
I didn't need to hear more from her.
Before throwing her down, I grabbed the bracelet that served as her storage device.
It's the one that uses subspace technology.
With the owner dead, it reverted back to its default, a small cube the size of a rubik's cube.
Using what little Source Energy managed to recover, I imprinted my signature on it and took ownership of the advanced storage equipment.
Soon enough, Identification through my Energy Control worked, giving me the information about it.
Click, click.
Changing its form to the same bracelet, it got locked on my wrist and when I willed it to open, my senses got sucked into the subspace, giving me a glimpse of the wealth the old woman possessed.
Ignoring the usual resources, I focused on looking for papers or any sort of items that could give us more information.
Luckily, I found some valuable information in it.
The map and direction to reach the old woman's Psyche-type Transcendent World. Following the same naming sense as every Transcendent World, it's called Technorad World.
