Arriving into the control room, she looked around not finding anything, walks in, "bam" the clops attack from up striking out fast with 2 of its tentacles, she dodges, " one attack recorded: extending tentacles. force calculated: up to a blow from a C rank. Conclusion: cannot be hit avoid at all cost" she thinks fast.
Pulls out her katana from her waist dodges another blow from the left runs in, slides down and avert another blow from the top, swerves to the right then left in under a second, escaping 2 attacks from left and right she goes in for the kill her blade a few inches from its eyes then bam she see herself flying through the air crashes into some accessories
"Wait I didn't get shocked," she says, recalling during her attack the clops shoots out electricity through its eyes not before it touches her, a transparent green shield envelopes her covering her from the attack but the force from it is what led to where she is now
"An energy base clops, and not just any energy but electricity. So that how it was able to hack into the Ai system unlocking all doors." Nester interrupts her thoughts, she gets up dodges another attack.
"I must admit, we are far behind, our energy-based humans can only be counted on one's hand, too few. Anyway, the shield that just blocked the attack was from the new suit, I have nanobots injected in your body, some are in your brain reading your brain wave, anytime you feel your life is threatened it will send a signal to the bracelet activating its force field protecting you, of course, that's how I can communicate with you by sending my thought through the nanobots which then send them straight to your brain, as in form of brainwave which is then read by your brain."
"So this is a telepathic link between me and you," she thinks which is then transmitted from the nanobots to the other, in brainwave.
Dodging another attack she then attacks with her katana, at another tentacle cutting it off, gets angry, retracts all is tentacles lighting them up with electricity it than launching all 9 excluding the wounded tentacle which is slowly healing itself. The other tentacles shoot at her with such incredible speed as spears. It's tip its tears through the air threatening to impale anything in its way, she runs back pulls out her other katana, running backward she dodges some of the tentacles
"Any other gadgets in this bracelet I should know of," she asks slashing at another tentacle, even though the electricity threatenings to pass through the blade it gets stopped by the hilt, she cuts off three tentacles but they regrow,
"He has the regenerative ability, looks like things just got more troublesome, I can only end this battle fast with one deadly hit, if not it can just wait till I tire out, with its regenerative means it could go on like this without getting exhausted and no matter how many minor injuries I inflict It will just heal up" she speculates, preparing to go for the kill but she Is later surprised by it when it momentarily disappears from her sight. She Gets struck in the back sending her flying across the room. The electric-coated tentacles smash and burn her back leaving a long gash.
"Why didn't the shields protect me" groaning she asks trying to stand up.
"Well, and that's is one of the disadvantages, you see unless you could sense the attack, register it, and send a signal to the tech it wouldn't be able to produce any protection rendering it useless against any fast opponent or a surprise attack. Of course with a powerful mind like mine that kind of disadvantage will be negligible" he says proudly.
"So it has speed boost"
"Normally speed boost can only be done in a straight line but to be able to control it so well to make such quick turn is something else," Nester says thoughtfully
"So what are you implying" she gets up draws her second katana, readying for a difficult battle
"With such amazing control speed boost which is normally used for a short boost in speed at a critical moment, with flexibility, it can be changed to a boost type agility technique, (where the user can move around easily) be careful this one's tough"
"Got it" she attacks and it's exploding with an electric-like net surrounding it, which expands around it but she passes through with the help of the force field which blocks the attack. She gets the upper hand with two blades in both hands she attacks fast precise and dangerous slashing from every corner. The clops take a defensive position successfully dodging some attack while the rest inflicts light wounds.
With the shape of clops, except the eye there where no other weak point been a ball-shaped organism it didn't have weakness like a human neck, heart, crutch, etc. Its heart and brain are basically in the middle protected.
It activates its speed boost, appears over her, and attacks with all it's electric infused tentacles smashing down at her, bam, the dust blows off expecting to see her wounded it is greeted with a quick and powerful slash
Her blade coated in azure light from the heavy amount of Breath accumulated in it increasing its sharpness by 5, durability by 9, and power by 3. She slashes at it nearly cutting it in half.
The clops back of trying to heal its severed flesh and damaged eye but it's interrupted by another slash finally severing it in two killings it.
"Huh"
"Well not bad you have improved, the amount of time you used to activate the mercshieoun has been reduced by two seconds
"Still not enough" inhales and exhales then turns around spotting Nester around the entrance walking towards her, he stops around the clops for some seconds, glances past it to her.
"Your growth is still stunning, even though you might never pass S rank," he says walking towards her
"Should I takes that as an encouragement?" she says raising an eyebrow
"Your choice" he gives her a card
"This is the address to our new base, you should go back to the mission, and this time around find them and eliminate everyone, I will send backup if needed.
What a surprise, now they use the lowest part of the human society as their base to not only recruit humans but also kidnap and assassinate potential guardian candidates
"They have evolved animals, aren't you gonna investigate how they were able to snuggle that in," she asks curiously
"Don't underestimate the clops, they have been toying with Breath for centuries, for them even teleportation is possible"
"Oh"
She walks away feeling surprised "master is right, looks like I still have a lot to learn," she thinks to herself.
