Outside The Gates Of The Northern Corridor...
The sinkhole was now covered by rocks. Under these rocks laid a body. Suddenly a bloody clawed hand burst out of the rocks. It was Larsson. Luckily the rocks and rubble destroyed the stalagmites and stalactites. He got away with most of his rib's broken, a broken left arm, a twisted ankle, ruptured kidneys, and a broken jaw. He floated onto the ground and collapsed. He looked at the sky and saw fire embers that quickly transformed into ash. Pieces of ash landed on his body. He began gathering aura around his body which began to heal his external and internal injuries. He stood on his feet and the energy around his body dispersed. He looked at his hands and clenched them into fists. "When I see you again you fucking bastard, you are dead!" yelled Larsson.
Aftermath Of Explosion. Shade's Location.
All that was left of the old soldier was his head which was burned. Shade was now heading towards The Eastern Corridor. Maddox who was already expecting someone was out for hid head was already prepared. He ordered over 500 soldiers to guard the outside of the Eastern Corridor. The soldiers he would have guard the outside of the Eastern Corridor was called Death Strike Task Force Team. The Death Strike Task Force Team only took orders from the President and Vice President Of The Council Of Fate Empire. If a regular Councilmen or Righteous One's asked to execute an order, they wouldn't listen. They were equipped with cloaks makers with a mark on their cloak of a grim reaper marking that they were a part of The Death Strike Task Force Team. They also had a chained whip, a bow, hidden weapons inside their bodies, and bombs in their hearts. When they accepted defeat they would activate the bomb in their chests. They hardly talk or communicate with each other. Only one thing was programmed inside their minds. Kill, kill, kill. When Shade saw soldiers of The Death Strike Task Force Team, he quickly ran for cover. He heard a lot of legends and tales about them. Most of the tales and legends were true. Over 50 years ago, they killed a legendary demon that resembled a spider and a human that tried to make the Realm Of Valadin it's best. The name of the legendary demon was Arachne. They easily slayed Arachne with the help of Grey. However, they didn't kill Arachne. They could make him an ally. They gave him robotic enhancements and minions that would do anything he would say. There was only one catch. He would serve as Maddox's champion and protector.
Shade hid behind a rock that was shaped like a head. He could not rush in the Eastern Corridor like a bull. He had to make up a plan. He picked up the rock that was shaped like a head and tossed it at the Death Strike Task Force Team soldiers. They easily dodged the rock. Shade pulled out one of his swords and sliced one of Death Strike Task Force Team soldiers in half. Blood splattered all over Shade's face. Shade quickly pulled out a smoke bomb he grabbed from the old soldier he earlier killed. He pulled out the pin and tossed the smoke bomb on the ground so he could make a quick escape. Unlucky for Shade a Death Strike Task Force Team soldier he stood on the bottom balcony of the third floor saw Shade through the smoky fog. The soldier pulled out two arrows and stretch them across the bow. He released the arrows and bought arrows landed inside of Shade's back which caused h to crash on the ground like a bag of sand. Blood began rising out of his back. Shade got on his feet and pulled the arrows out of his back. He tossed the arrows to the side and turned invisible. The soldier activated thermal vision and easily saw Shade. He pulled out an arrow that had a bomb attached to it and fired it at Shade. Shade quickly dodged the arrow which sunk in the ground. Boom! An explosion commenced. The explosion created a huge crater. Shade grew mad and threw his sword like a spear. The sword when inside the soldier's neck. Blood squirted all over the third-floor balcony. The soldier collapsed on the ground and slowly bled to death. Only three Death Strike Task Force Team soldiers remained. He pulled out his other blade and slashed it across the ground.
"Bring it on!" yelled Shade. The Death Strike Task Force Team soldiers stuck out their hands that suddenly turned to flamethrowers. Shade sliced off one of the soldier's head and kicked the body into the wall. The other soldiers tried to overpower Shade but Shade instead overpowered them. He sliced off one of the soldier's arm and bashed the other soldier in the chest, stopping his heart. Shade tossed the soldier's arm to the side and began breathing heavily. He walked past the soldiers and spat on the ground. Suddenly he could hear the sounds of regeneration. He turned around and saw the Death Strike Task Force Team, soldiers standing on their feet. Shade was shocked. The soldier he slices in half reconnected together and all the cuts and bruises disappeared. They picked up their weapons and began running towards Shade. This wasn't the first time they cheated death. During their fight with Arachne, they were sliced, burned, eaten, and poisoned many times. Shade activated his chest beam that began charging up rapidly. A green electric beam emitted from his chest. The beam vaporized the five Death Strike Task Force soldiers. It also destroyed ten cyberpunk towers. System overheating. said the voice that rang in his head. His chest cannon had three levels. The first level the beam was green. The second level the beam was red. The third level of the beam was purple. Each level was more and more powerful. He fully eradicated the Death Strike Task Force Team soldiers. He started smiling and looked at the giant door of the Eastern Corridor. He placed both of his hands on the giant door and shoved it open.
