Chereads / Alchemist and the Alderan Academy / Chapter 21 - Reinforcement

Chapter 21 - Reinforcement

The condition of the three girls when he stepped on the ground floor was apprehensive. Four giant creatures pushed them to the edge. Especially Anastasia. Poor girl, she was almost barbecued by one of that vast creature. 

Felix hurriedly fired his arrow while dashing toward Anastasia. His arrow bounced, that creature had thick skin. Thanks for his arrow, nor that monster turned his head at him.

As a hunter, Felix trained to use strategy while hunting dangerous creature. Naturally, he tried to blind his enemy. For the hunter, blind enemies were nothing more than babies with a stick. 

Felix's arrows slid through the wind, piercing a colossal creature's eyes.

The thing moved erratically, its eel-like arms spiraling out of control. [Lost contact with a target. Damaged on lens, need immediate bot repair.]

"You idiot, why are you just sitting there?" Felix yelled on Anastasia. 

"Your blind! Could you see my leg injured? What take you so long?" 

"Take me so long for what?" 

"Helping me! Are you take a pleasure watched me been beaten up?" 

"Oh now you need a man help, huh?"

"Shut your pie and help me!" 

"Yeah yeah, thanks Felix for helping me. I'm at your mercy." Said Felix. Thanks to a stamina drink, Felix could go as fast as the wind while carrying Anastasia. Even after making love dozen a time nonstop.

"What are you doing, you idiot!" Yelled Anastasia. 

"Helping you!"

"Augh, be careful! My leg!" Anastasia's legs dangled when Felix carried her. Her arms reflexively wrapped around his long neck.

"What's wrong with your leg?"

"I don't know, you think I'm a doctor?"

What Felix expected from Anastasia? A kind answer?

"Sweety, here!" Roselin opened her shell shield.

"Your friend's leg hurts. Please check it." Felix entered, putting Anastasia into the shell while observing a sizeable petrified object before him. "What is that thing?"

"Sentry robots." Linsy checked Anastasia's feet. "It run out energy so stuck there."

"Looks like it exhausted after whirlwind for quite a while. Thankfully, if it continues like that, my shield will cannot regenerate." Roselin said, turned her attention to Anastasia, checked her feet. "Sweety, are your feet okay?"

"I guess so. Linsy, look out!" Anastasia pointed at four missiles streaking about to hit the shells.

Linsy deployed two of her bots, shooting down three, but one got away.

Felix shoots the last missile with an arrow, and it explodes. He asked. "What exactly are they?"

"Guardian of Ruin." Linsy squirted something at Anastasia's ankles. "Now move your feet. What's felt better?"

Anastasia nodded while moving her ankles. "Thanks Scientist."

Felix thought, Ah, so she could thank you, apparently. What's so hard about saying thank you, my hero? You're my savior. I'll repay you with whatever you want. How about a kiss? Or my body. "That would be great?"

"What are you mumbling on?" Sarcastically, Anastasia watched him. 

"Felix, Sweety, thanks for helping Anastasia. You're a hero." Roselin said. 

"Does not matter," Felix said, then snorted when he found another robot fixing a broken robot eye. "Oh, Archon, they can help each other, apparently."

Another robot that was low on energy early began to spin and created a whirlwind. Its arm was like a hose without contents, dragged away. 

"Hmm, they can't attack continuously, they need regenerated energy first." Linsy said as she rubbed her pointed chin. "They will fix each other wheen needed. But, they can't repair themselves and without eyes, they can't do much." She snapped her fingers. "Felix, I need your help. We need to destroy their eyes simultaneously."

"Good, leave me do it alone. You girls get some rest." Felix answered confidently, pulling his arrows out of the quiver.

"No, no, no. You can't do it alone." Linsy answered. "How fast you arrow could go? We need to destroy their eyes simultaneously. See, the robot whose eye you damaged was now back on its feet in no time."

"Ara ara, still discussing?"  Roselin had a hard time resisting a robot's spinning attack. "Hurry and take action, Sweety."

A robot shoot a missiles, not four, but eight. Another robot emitted fire and got closer by. [Eliminated intruder.]

"Damn it!" Anastasia got up, but her leg was not healed yet. It's hard for her to just stand. "Linsy, fire those missiles!"

"I-I can't, not enough power to shoot eight missiles."

"Girls, I couldn't hold it any longer," Roselin said. "Quickly carry out your plan, Linsy!"

"We must break out!" Linsy yelled.

Roselin picked up Anastasia. When her shield shells opened, they all jumped in different directions, dodging missile attacks, fire attacks, and those spinning steel creatures.

Felix ordered, "Linsy, you take care those two robots that fired missile. I take care the rest!"

Felix shoots, but the robot catches is arrow.

"Damn it!"

Linsy replied, "Looks like they learned from their mistakes. Don't give up. We can do it!"

Give up? It didn't cross Felix's mind to give up, but he was worried about those three girls. They were great, but no matter how great they were, they started to lose stamina. 

Felix fired many times, and so did Linsy, but those robots blocked it all.

"How many arrows have you left?"  Linsy asked while controling her two bot that flied like a bee, evaded a robot arms. 

"Three, three left." Felix took a sip of stamina liquid. He accidentally touched the screen next to the big door.
