Kill the Sun

Chapter 433 Chapter 433 – Manipulator

The person hovering in the distance was seemingly made almost entirely out of corals.

The front of their body had several long and spiky tendrils of corals coming out of it.

The only things that were exposed were the obviously female chest and the space between the legs.

It was obvious that this body’s previous occupant had been a beautiful woman.

But now, only a mess of corals, a bit of blue hair, and the intimate parts of the body remained free.

Naturally, she had been the one who had fired the terrifying lightning bolt.

As soon as the new person showed up, the two people from Metal Works City were shocked.

“So, that’s where you were!” Kevara shouted at the distant woman before she charged forward.

The people from Anatomy realized that the two from Metal Works City apparently knew the newcomer, but now was not the time to talk.

“You guys deal with the other one!” Liera shouted as she shot after Kevara.

The people from Anatomy were not happy to hear that.

Liera, as the CZE of the biggest Manufacturer in Metal Works City, was an Early Hero, and Kevara was even a Mid Hero.

Meanwhile, the three of Anatomy were just Initial Heroes.

This meant that Kevara and Liera represented the majority of their power.

And now, both of them were focusing on only one of the enemies.

However, when they remembered the powerful bolt of lightning, they were no longer as angry.

That woman with the lightning seemed to be very powerful.

Nick could only watch from the ground as the four people shot at their respective opponents.

Zarren was the first to reach his opponent, the man with the gun that could shoot roots.

SHING!

A metallic puppet appeared in front of Zarren, and its body expanded in the blink of an eye.

An instant later, Zarren charged into an open compartment on the puppet’s back and was surrounded.

It was like the puppet had been made into some kind of powerful mechanical monster!

BANG!

Spikes exploded out of the puppet, and it swung towards the man with the gun.

The man retreated further and readied his gun.

He aimed his gun at the steel puppet and fired.

WHOOM!

But then, strings appeared above the man’s body.

The strings came out of all of the man’s joints and seemed to lead up to the sky.

When the man had fired his gun, his right arm moved upward like it had been pulled by one of the strings, and the shot barely missed.

Nick could see that Mundus also had a puppet in his hand.

Compared to Ariel’s cerulean blade puppet and Zarren’s steel armor puppet, Mundus’ puppet seemed ordinary.

It was just a black puppet that stood on top of Mundus’ left hand, while his right hand manipulated its strings.

Surprisingly, the way the puppet floated above Mundus’ hand looked just like the coral man with the gun.

Nick could tell that Mundus had been the one who had made the coral man miss.

He also immediately realized that Mundus could fulfill two roles.

He was obviously a Manipulator, but his powers could most likely also be used for the Informant role.

If Mundus could control an enemy Hero, he could definitely control someone weaker.

That was when Nick remembered that Veteran who had come to get him.

That guy had acted like a machine.

Had he been controlled by Mundus?

After the coral man missed his shot, Zarren closed in again.

WHOOOM! .𝒎

A sheet of metal came out of the puppet’s arm, and Zarren swung towards the enemy.

The coral man tried to evade, but the strings around his body became taut.

BANG!

The sheet of metal hit the man’s left leg, and an explosion of blood occurred.

After the explosion of blood passed, Nick could see that the man’s leg had been turned into something that looked like a bloody sausage!

The bones in the leg were probably broken so badly that there might as well not be any bones at all.

As it stood now, the coral man could count himself lucky that his leg was still attached.

At the same time, Nick noticed that the man’s strings had been cut.

Somehow, the man had managed to get rid of the strings, which was also the reason why only his leg was injured.

Otherwise, his entire body might have turned into a bloody sausage.

But at that moment, the man pointed his gun at Zarren again, and this time, there were no strings attached to his body.

BANG!

The gun fired, but at the same time, more strings appeared.

But this time, the strings seemed to vanish into the surroundings!

They just entered the air and vanished!

Mundus spun the strings in his hand, and Nick could feel an incredible amount of Zephyx coming out of Mundus’ body.

Nick almost couldn’t believe what he saw next.

The area in a big circle around the coral man seemed to detach from reality.

And then, it spun!

If one looked at the battlefield from above via a round portal or something, they would see the outer fifth of their view detaching and spinning.

The bullet, which had just entered the spinning part, was spun alongside the surroundings.

Of course, due to the bullet’s speed, it was only inside that part for a tiny amount of time.

But it was enough, and it barely missed its target.

Then, Zarren reached the coral man again.

WHOOOOM!

Several gigantic plates of steel appeared around the man, and they immediately compressed.

This was just like the time Zarren had surrounded Nick’s head with metal but on a much greater scale.

Of course, the steel around the man immediately started to bend and was just about to burst.

Something like this couldn’t possibly contain a Hero.

BOOOOOOOOM!

The world seemed to split apart, and a line seemed to form in the air, which turned the area around it blurry.

Nick knew what this was.

This was how it looked like when something with extreme speed passed by.

As soon as the phenomenon occurred, a small hole appeared inside the steel.

An instant later, all the metal became icy blue and turned into icy flakes, revealing the coral man beneath.
