No warning, no sound...
No sign of presence at all...
Hazal, immediately appeared next to Linc.
"BANG BANG BANG!"
As the closest person next to him. Linc pulled out the gun in its holster, and shot Hazal at full speed.
Hellnis was guarding the devil, though he was slightly caught off guard by Hazal's sudden appearance. He raised the metal shield in his hand, and silver colored water droplets started to appear on the surface, and shot straight at Hazal like an iron bullet!
"Sorry to interrupt, my only mission was to catch a research subject who ran away. Then, excuse me."
Has bullets blocked by fog around its own head. Hazal's body began to emit gray smog, and completely enveloped the Linc who was nearby like a starving python.
The iron bullet fired by Hellnis entered the gray fog, and bounced off very quickly like it was hit by a trampoline.
"!!!!"
"BANG!!!"
Got hit by his own attack, and retreated while creating a line of cracks on the ground. Hellnis reabsorbed the iron bullets into his shield, and the hot air from friction, instantly raised smoke on the surface of the shield he was holding.
"DEVIL!!"
As hellnis put away the shield in front of his. The gray mist had dissipated, and the sandy smoke that had surrounded them grew more and more.
"What happened? Where's the devil?!" Lister looked back, and hastily asked in confusion.
All these actions were very fast.
Lister was focused on bringing down the helicopter so she didn't care about the surroundings, Manasa was taking care of the prisoners she just got, Maister and cheasy were standing guard behind the three of them to prevent being attacked by hidden or unknown parties.
Only hellnis was guarding Linc, and Raina who didn't take any action to notice Hazal's fast ambush attack.
"Cough! Cough! Captain... The dust is getting bigger! There's something unusual about this dust!" Cheasy who accidentally inhaled a large amount of dust, coughed badly.
"It's damp..."
He took off his gloves, and waved his finger in the air, coming into contact with the dust that was still flying. Maister glanced at the Key master, and shouted:
"MANASA, We need your fire! Burn all the dust that is near us!"
"I coming!!"
Waving her hand to ignite the steam within her body. The area about 20 meters from their surroundings was covered in a sea of light flames, and the dust that was scattered in the air, fell directly to the ground.
Waited a few minutes in the blazing sea of fire but took no damage at all due to Manasa's great control. The dust in the air instantly dissipated, and they were finally able to breathe fresh breath once more.
"Maister, did you find something?" Ask Lister.
Nodding his head, Maister informed him: "The person who kidnapped the demon just now is the same person who threw back the bullets when you shot the helicopter. His steam ability is estimated to be water mist. It has the characteristic that it can reflect steam transfusion attacks."
"Also, look at the rest of the master key notification log. Hore activity increased 62% in the short time that person appeared, estimated to be almost the same strength as the death group."
"W-where's the devil!?"
"Shhh.... Calm down... Sister is here..." Hugging Raina who was panicking, Manasa asked curiously.
"How did you know that much in such a short time?"
Maister put his gloves back on.
"Steam's abilities can be observed by observing the dust that is scattered in the air. That guy assimilates the dust and obstructs our vision. The characteristics of his abilities can be seen when he bounces back the bullet Lister fired and bounces back the hot iron bullet hellnis. Thanks also to the shot. A devil gun that doesn't reflect at all."
"As long as you pay attention to details, it can all be easily seen."
Manasa: "...."
"Shouldn't we save the devil? He's been kidnapped!" Raina said helplessly.
However, everyone was in no hurry.
Maister earlier said that the master key log trace revealed Hore energy activity increased by 62%, indicating that this transfusion was more powerful than all of them!
Transfusion is like a moving radiation object. By measuring the activities of the Hore around them, they could determine the power of the Transfusion.
The more Hore energy assimilated in the blood, the stronger the steam power of a transfusion.
However, if the assimilation is too excessive, it has the potential to make the transfusion to become a "Fallen."
"Fallen" is an expression for someone who has a Hore assimilation exceeding 50% and will increase with time.
A "Fallen" would have a very strong power of steam, but he would continue to assimilate the Hore energy within his body until it exploded.
Simply put, "Fallen" are people who can't control the absorption of Hore energy within their own bodies.
Lister, Manasa, Maister, Cheasy, hellnis, is a Transfusion who has 49% blood assimilation and below. They didn't dare cross the 50% percent threshold and endure the effects out of control with their own bodies.
A transfused person who has a blood assimilation of 50% or more percent and above, can be said to be a truly fallen person.
They were destined to die quickly.
Destined to fight a "Fallen" transfusion person who wasn't afraid of death, and possessed the unknown power of Steam because he hadn't reached all his limits, really made them have to think twice about saving the devil.
Their mission is to bring "Raina" back to the Neisser Society.
With the devil, or without it, it makes no difference at all.
"By the way we have new prisoners who can talk. How about interrogating them?"
Looking at Manasa's index finger pointing at the army prisoners she had just tied up. Lister nodded his head in agreement.
"Let's do it."
_____
Has direct vision looking underground. Linc who was carried like a sack of rice by Hazal, was disarmed very quickly.
The gun, and the military dagger stuck in his leg, were thrown into the street just like that.
For fear that the person carrying it would throw the backpack behind him as well. From the start, Linc had no signs of using his backpack at all.
"I advise you not to do anything unnecessary. Return obediently to your cages."
Crossing his arms dissatisfied. Linc looked at the mist under Hazal's feet with great displeasure.
"We're both human, aren't you being too racist to me?"
"No, you are not human." Say hazal calmly.
"...."
Has 5 points of approval, but 5 points of injustice with race gender issues. Linc finally could only rely on the inhuman creature that Hazal was referring to just now.
Linc spoke in his mind.
"(LOVE? Can you help me?)"
"...."
"(Come on, I know you're awake. Are you still mad at what I said this morning? Don't be mad...)"
"....."
"(Oh, do you prefer to be called system? SYSTEM HELP ME!!!)"
"[....OK.]"
"Hmm?"
Have no hope that words will be reciprocated by the system. Linc was stunned for a moment, and then he wondered in astonishment.
How did he help him?
"KABOMMM!!!"
"BANG!!"
"CRACK!!!!"
.....
Saw a group of Mechas 23-type that fell from the sky, and surrounded the two of them very quickly. Linc crossed his arms tighter.
"Good, the LOVE Association has now joined in the battle. This is really hypocritical reinforcements."
Linc was speechless.
