Chapter 429 - Chapter 429: Unison

[Proto Earth]

As Lilia had successfully caught Edelene off guard, she then efficiently used her smokescreen in her and her clone, in order to further obstruct the vision of the sharpshooter from afar. After all she believe that as long as the sharpshooter's aim is obstructed, it would be hard for it to actually pinpoint her exact location.

The moment the smoke rose again to the point that even Lilia had trouble on seeing her opponent, she then made her clone submerge into the shadows, as she quickly puts on her combat mask and asked her own system to activate her heat sensors on her mask visor.

The moment that application was applied, she then got a clearer view on her target, as she ran up towards her while amidst the smoke and begun attacking her in unsuspecting areas. Because of that tactic, Edelene then had a hard time fighting off against Lilia as she begun heightening her senses in order to not get caught in her trap.

As Edelene carefully extend her senses, she also at the same time fend for herself, as she somewhat able to fight off against Lilia's unsuspecting attacks, but despite that she never let go of her vigilance as she also kept her focus on the dark areas in her surroundings including her own shadow.

Getting caught off guard in that situation to the point that she received a wound was something unacceptable. Even thought such an act was done through exploiting her blind spot, Edelene was a type of a mercenary who should always stay in vigilant no matter what assignment was given to them. Just receiving such wound was already a detrimental to her performance, that is the reason why such a thing was unacceptable.

Luckily for her she wasn't alone in this fight. About a few kilometers away from them, Castorea is somewhat having trouble pinpointing Lilia's as exact location due to the huge smokescreen she had layout. Because of this smokescreen, her point of view was constantly obstructed as she almost had a hard time identifying the shadows as a friend or foe. But this only lasted for a few moments.

As an experienced killer who somehow is involved in eliminating a person for a long time even before the system was ever implemented, such an attempt to obstruct her view wasn't new at all. In all her missions given to her, there are many occasions that were used to obstruct her own visions. But all those attempts had failed.

With that experience, she naturally had a way to deal with such an obstruction that was coming from a person who haven't experienced the cruelty of the society.

Alongside it, she was also quite thankful towards her target's companion for stalling the authorities. For a person like her, the authorities are quite a troublesome bunch, after all if she ever got caught, it would most likely end up as her being killed to keep the confidentiality of information that was given to her.

With the authorities being stalled, she was now free to let loose all she want as she begun to take out equipment's which would her her in this type of situation.

From her bag, she took out a type of mask that was especially made for her, as she puts it on her face and activated the application in its visor. Just like what Lilia had, Castorea has her own application which would enable her to see the  people within the smoke and even identify them as foe and ally.

The reason why such mask is able to identify the friend to its target, is due to its primarily scanning its user's brain waves and  read through the information stored in its memory. From its memory, the mask would recognize Edelene as a friend and Lilia as its target. With such a hi-tech mask which differentiate a person from person, she then once more peeked on her scope as she aimed from afar towards Lilia's head

As she saw Edelene slowly getting pushed back in this blind battle, she then pulled the trigger as she let the bullet zoom across the air and enter the smoke itself. But the moment the bullet entered the smokescreens' vicinity, Lilia then instantly senses its presence, as she controlled her clone to intercept such a bullet. In that instant a huge clang resounded in the air, as the clone's blade, had clashed against the approaching bullet in mid air.

After deflecting the bullet, Lilia quickly made her clone intercept Edelene who somehow attack towards her direction upon hearing the bullet failing to hit its mark. With the previous attempt that her group of clones failed to reach their target, Lilia then decided to take out the sniper first before she deal with the close quarter combatant.

With the clone dealing with Edelene, she then rushed out of the smokescreen as she used the buildings itself to obstruct the view of the sniper while she get close towards her target. Likewise, Castorea wouldn't just let Lilia get to her close, without a fight

SO the moment she saw Lilia rush out of the smoke, she begun o rapidly use her sniper gun as she fired off bullets after bullets towards her target, in hope that it would be able to trap her in a corner. However Lilia herself was a sly opponent, the moment Castorea intercepted her from the front and back, she then used the walls within the district to climb on top of the roofs and raced towards her location in a speed incomparable to a normal human runner.

Because of that, Castorea quickly kept her sniper gun back towards her storage, as she pulls out her bow and begun raining down arrows from above. But this time instead of travelling across the roofs of various establishment, Lilia then crashed to the window of the building in front of her upon noticing the change of weapon as she used the building as a cover from the rain of arrows while also running forward.

The moment Lilia did such a thing, Castorea further enhanced her arrows as she begun attacking her with a piercing arrows that can even pierce through hard concrete.

The moment such arrows fall from the sky, Lilia's danger sense then kicks in as she felt something different from the arrows that had been launched towards her. Just as expected the moment the arrows hit the concrete roof of the buildings, it then instant melted any obstructions on its way, as it pierce through the ceiling and rained down on her inside a closed room.

Clicking her tongue, Lilia evoked a swift movement akin to a dance as she tried to dodge every single one of the arrows, while also aiming to head towards the opposite window of the room. But the moment she thought of such thing, she suddenly felt an ominous feeling deep within her, as she hesitated from jumping out of the window and instead break through the hall.

Breaking the door of the room, she then ran along the hallway, as she held her sword and dagger, while also deflecting the prieci9ng arrows at the risk of losing her weapons durability.

Not long after, she surprisingly crashed through the wall of the hallway, as she jumped down from the building and immediately ran along the alleyway of the streets. The moment she did that, she then begun multiplying herself through her clones, as she tried to direct the attention of her sniper elsewhere while also secretly gunning for its exact location.

As exactly what happened to what she expected, Castorea was actually caught off guard by such movement as she begun shooting down the clones at a quick pace in order to narrow down her target. As she took down one target after another, Lilia slowly figured out her exact location as she submerged into the shadows and begun chasing after her in secrecy.

At the same time, Edelene noticed Lilia's ploy through the numerous explosions ringing out from afar, as she quickly took out the clones around her while simultaneously casting targeting spells from her location.

As she finished her spell, the spell was then launched into the air as it targeted the clones and easily picked off all of the fakes that were running about on the surface. But despite that there were still many clones that is roaming about in the city streets and each clones can use Lilia skills with less proficiency. So the moment a huge number of clones were wiped out by Edelene's spell, they then casted more clones from them and begun spreading out even more.

While this was happening, Kaido on the other hand was standing in the middle of the street leading towards the current battle as he saw a multitude of glowing cars from the distance heading towards his direction. Such cars are like the police force of earth itself, meaning such light reminds people that authorities were on the way.

The moment the cars saw him blocking the road, many of them pushed their breaks at a maximum degree, which caused their cars to screech along the ground. As the first cars of the front did such a thing, the following cars followed suite, until; the whole street was blocked by the cars of the authorities itself.

Since one person bravely blocked the street, all the forces immediately thought that such a person must be confident to block them all alone. In the past this might have been a suicidal act the results to the perpetrators death, but ever since normal people gained power to fight monsters, such an act became quite common to the populace which slowly aggravated the authorities that were keeping the peace in the city.

After all, such an act was like an act of disrespect towards the authorities, and the moment the system appears, more and more bold people goes against the authorities which caused the rise of crimes happening in the city. Since the authorities cant blame the phenomenon called the system due to it being a force similar to nature, they have no choice but to held their stress within their heart and let it out towards any captured offenders. Due to that the authorities became strict with the usage of abilities and somewhat harsh towards rule breakers.

But despite the enhanced laws, there were still many brave souls who dared disobey and kept breaking the rules of the city and such a situation was one of them.

The moment the authorities of police force saw Kaido, they immediately rushed out of their cars and formed a formation around him. Alongside it many soldiers even went inside the building and set up their snipers' and long ranged gunners at a farthest point which would need an effort from the players to reach it by foot.

This may be an excessive formation, but such procedures are needed as they cant afford to underestimate a single user that is as strong as a squadron that is fully armed with hi-tech weapon.

"This is the police force of the city! how dare you block the way of the authorities! State your name and affiliation and we may perhaps lighten your sentence"

Naturally as calm as he stood, Kaido simply watched them fully finish their formation, as he ignored the officer calling his attention and looked at the humans aiming their guns towards him. The moment the police force received no answer, some of them begun to grow angry as the officer once more called out to him.

"I demand you to state your name right now! If you don't we will treat you as one of the terrorist's group that had been giving problems at the neighboring city"

But despite that, the police force still received no answer. In that moment just as it was about to call out the third time, a hand grabbed it by its shoulder as one of its colleague steps in with his own team that was recently formed for the service of the police force.

Naturally this new team was made up of players who's sole purpose was to apprehend any offending players and such a situation was just exactly within its domain of activity.

Since this group of people doesn't seem to intend to introduce themselves, Kaido has no choice but to differentiate them through the class of their chosen profession. To be exact this team consist of profession that is fully focused on suppression. Mainly there are about a total of eight people in this group of preferably called suppression squad.

There is 1 guardian tank, 2 swordsman, 1 spearman, 1 male and 1 female brawler, 1 female archer and 1 healer. As one could say, aside from the lack of long range attackers and  lack of any support profession such as bards and songstress, one could say that such squad is fully focused on is attack power rather than endurance. At most it seems that they intend to suppress Kaido through overwhelming strength.

On the other hand, Kaido simply seemed amused as he, opened up his arms, and positioned himself at a location that will make him comfortable to engage in battle. No matter what world Kaido landed, there is one thing he learned from all his experience, and that is to never underestimate his enemy.

Such a lesson was learned through a hard way during the attack in Tokyo which he was involved. With the intent of not repeating the same mistake, he then readied himself for the battle that was about to commence.

The moment Kaido placed himself in position, the guardian player then ordered his whole team to prepare for battle as he took out his sword on his storage space and begun to engage in battle.

First off the guardian then used a skill called leap to close the distance between him and Kaido, as he landed on top of him and collided with the psychic barrier that Kaido has put up from the very beginning of the morning. the moment the psychic barrier was proc by the guardian's skill, the whole squad then noticed the profession of Kaido as the guardian called it out towards everyone who wasn't paying attention.

"He's a psychic!"

The moment this was called out, some of the police in the vicinity and some who are aiming from above, then immediately knew what to do, as they prepare some equipment's to deal with players who have psychic profession.

"Psychic are one of the troublesome profession, at most their defenses are rock-solid and their attacks matches to combat magician... but there is one flaw they all have...." said by the guardian player as he attacked Kaido with multiple sword swings and a shield bash.

"Hoh! What is it?" replied by Kaido

"They will become vulnerable when they are under a huge amount of stress which disrupts their concentration... psychic powers relies on concentration and the moment that is disrupted, it will be over"

As the guardian pushed Kaido back, the two swordsman and 1 spearman then charged towards him in all three direction, and lounged their sharp weapons at him, all pointing at his vital areas. Due to that Kaido has no choice but to use his shield to defend himself and block all three attacks that are coming at him from the front.

The moment he did that, the female brawler then came in from behind, as she enact a multiple flame fist combo which riddled Kaido's barrier with multiple impacts, before inserting a skill which disrupts his barrier.

"Ki point"

Launching a small Ki point at the tip of its finger, the  female brawler pointed it at the most concentrated force in Kaido's barrier, as she broke the flow of energy and destroyed the rock solid defense that Kaido had erected earlier on. The moment the psychic barrier was destroyed, the male brawler quickly trip him over with a swift kick on his ankles, as the female brawler simultaneously kicked him on the face which made Kaido fall down on the ground from this unison combo.

As Kaido fell face first, he then quickly rolled to the side in order to avoid  the follow up strike from both brawlers, while also avoiding weapons that are suddenly  aiming at him from the side the moment he stood back up. Just when he pulled back his head in order to avoid the stab strike coming from the two swordsman, he then smack both swords up above his head, as he sent a wind slash  from below and blow  the two swordsman away for a few blocks.

After that he caught the spear stab coming at him from behind, as he pulled the spearman close to him and punched him straight to the face with a strike enhanced by electrified element which boosted his strength.

As he knocked the spearman down to the ground, he then used the spear he had grabbed to forcefully made the female brawler dodge his swing, with a step back, as he proceeded to block the fist strikes coming from male brawler in quick reflexes.

Using the spear, he then created an opportunity, as he locked hold the arm of the brawler with a spear, as he kicked him with his enhanced kick and blow him over at the place crowded with police officers.

After doing such thing, he then blocked the few incoming strikes from the female brawler, as he kicked away the incoming shield bash from the guardian, while avoiding some of the arrows shot at him by the female archer from afar.

After dodging the fifth arrow, he then took ahold the sixth arrow from midair, as he  used it to stab the female brawler on her shoulder after dodging her fist strike. Following it, he then sent a flamethrower from his palm towards the guardian which forced him to be put on the defensive, before erecting a wall between him and the two swordsmen who came back with a swing from their enhanced swords.

Raising his foot, he then stomped the ground, creating a devastating shockwave, which blew everyone away, causing all of them to fall to the ground.

As they all fell unto their knees, Kaido rushed towards the archer from the distance while avoiding some arrows and bullets from the police and successfully arrived before her in an instant from where he took off. Of course the moment he got there, the female archer fought him with her bare close quarter combat alongside the healer of the squad, and somewhat barely able to hold on. But despite that, Kaido was still able to kick away the healer for a few steps, causing him to crash at the close car, while also sending the archer crashing unto the car behind her with a quick gutter punch.

Without mercy, he buried her through the car with a strong kick, and also with an intent to bu8rn her along with the car using a short fuse of gas and fire. But before he could do such a thing, the guardian came in to intercept such act as he swung down his sword and tried to separate Kaido from their archer.

However such effort was proved useless as Kaido simply erected a barrier between them and proceeded to put fire at the oil gas that was leaking at the car where their archer was buried.

Despite the frustrated shout from the guardian, a huge explosion still erupted into the area, as Kaido literally made the car explode alongside the archer that he had buried inside it. With this act, the atmosphere just grew even tenser, as hostility towards him, ever grew more.
