Chapter 413 - Home Run
Supreme Exoskeletons had been rushing towards the location where Shakstress was. They were using powerful shrinking and expanding techs to help them travel seamlessly from one place to the other.
The entire ship had several small paths that were so small you'd have to be the size of an ant to travel.
But right when Richie caused a trembling in the space of Shakstress, many of those Supreme Exoskeletons suddenly began to face a distortion that was forcing them to revert to their original size.
And right when they thought they could move...
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Several explosions that had great desolation erupted. It was followed by a jolting explosion that sent several thunders to their suits.
"Ahhhh!" One of the pilots reverted to his original size and suffered from the desolation, and lighting fell to the main hall as the path they were traveling on was wrecked.
STAB!
A powerful stabbing attack struck the pilot, and it pierced through. The previous attack had weakened the armor's integrity and allowed the concentrated power of Typical's harnessed skill to stab right in.
The armor could repair itself, but the pilot could not.
Madison immediately began to shoot the two other surviving Exoskeleton with a strange gun that he had acquired within the ship.
BOOM! BOOM!
The two pilots were still being assailed as the lightning bolt of Lennox would bounce from one of the pilots to the other.
The two surviving pilots were unable to resist as they would get bombarded, and Madison kept using his Skill to stop time in his perception and shoot the pilots at a location that prevented them from counter-attacking.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
On another area, Cheryl and Oark were rushing with great haste. What was amazing was the fact that they were equipped with the Sun Devourer suit.
"Of all the things we had to take, it's this. I mean, those Supreme Exoskeletons were better!" Cheryl complained.
"A Supreme Exoskeleton has many restrictive levels. And we don't know what techs they can employ, and it will take a while for us to figure it out. But these Sun Devourers have one tech that is applied instantly. So we don't have to activate it." Oark explained as they kept moving and killing the werewolves that were rampaging on the location they were in.
Chris and Grace had switched some of the medicines into the serum that transforms the humans into wolves. What was even scarier was that these serums had a delay in their activation.
Many Aragarians who were wounded and who had a higher level of access in the ship were infected and brought in the werewolf apocalypse inside the previously enclosed areas of the ship.
Soon, Oark and Cheryl managed to enter the rooms and would kill these wolves. Those guards inside would even open the door for Cheryl and Oark to kill the werewolves.
Through that, the two mercenaries were able to infiltrate the more secure areas of the ship and even witnessed several cameras used in the Command Centers in various parts of the ship.
The secret of Madison's timely attack in hindering several Supreme Exoskeletons was a secret ability that the trio chose to have. They all had their assignments, and these three who had worked together in their many missions from China, to Russia, and towards the European nations gave them the experience and teamwork that allowed them to be among the spies despite not having any formal spy training.
They were later given experiments according to their potential and had a unique Realm that allowed them to link with each other.
This skill was the ability to share their vision within a certain distance. Within roughly three kilometers, the three could activate a powerful link based on a certain Path that Richie discovered in the Americas. When they activate this Skill, it allows everyone to share their vision for a few seconds. This was their personal choice to become a specialized type of spy and assassin that could move, infiltrate and perform covert operations.
The risky experiments of the Thought Transmitter had to start. And in this timeline, improvements were being made. Using Realm as the foundation and the acquisition of one of the most important Unlocked abilities. And when given to the trio, it was further capitalized by Madison's ability. He had the ability to stop time in his perception.
When Cheryl and Oark were still without a Sun Devourer Suit, they had managed to enter a room in dire need of help as more than five of the people within the Command Center became werewolves. With them nearby, holding guns, the people quickly opened the door, allowing them to move inside and made quick work of the werewolves. And as the pair fought, they activated their links allowing Madison to see their vision.
From the perspective of the Aragarians, they saw the sun Devourers swiftly entering and killing all the werewolves and swiftly left as they had no jurisdiction or clearance to enter those rooms.
But those swift moments gave Madison so much information. He saw the map of the particular area. He even could deduce various information and details about the ship through the objects displayed in the Command Centers' monitors.
Through that, he found the orders to send out another set of Exoskeletons which he quickly killed, and when Richie's sound returned, they managed to communicate with each other and gave Cheryl and Oark access to wear a Sun Devourer Suit.
With that suit, the pair constantly moved from one place to the other and began to follow the very precise and detailed plans that Madison developed.
His perception in that Realm where time didn't move allowed him to develop elaborate plans that set the team-up. He was even able to pass on important information that the pair used to talk their way into restricted areas.
Finally, Madison had given the orders to deploy the weapon that Arthur gave to them.
"This would have been easier if he carried that item in the first place!" Cheryl complained.
"Haven't you heard of the saying, don't put all your eggs in the same basket? We came in not knowing what was going to happen. So he had to divide the weapons among us. But now that a plan is forming, we can finally use it. If he had used it earlier, it would alarm the Presider. But now, she doesn't have time to notice how her ship is losing a large amount of air." Oark laughed as he held on to a ball. The ball was originally as large as the Balls of Thunder. But now, it was almost the size of a basketball.
Click!
A sound was heard that showed that the large ball had taken enough air.
"We have to hurry. It's starting to compress it now. We have to get there before this thing blows."
Around the area, Agrarians were dying from the sudden loss of air.
"There's the rocket!" Cheryl pointed as they entered another one of the missile storerooms.
All missiles were not armed but what they were looking for was a large rocket.
The pair began to disassemble the rocket and placed the metal ball inside.
"Wow. This rocket's hard." Oark was amazed.
"Do you know what this could be for? Isn't rocket science your department?" Oark asked.
"By the looks of it, this rocket is designed to withstand blows and contain any possible fluctuations inside."
"But this is too big and heavy to be used as a rocket."
"I'm guessing that the application of this is for bombardment. This rocket is designed to withstand anti-air attacks. Many rockets couldn't destroy this rocket. If dropped from the sky, unless the anti-air weapons are strong enough the destroy the metal casing, this thing will create a massive hole first, and then the bomb inside will explode. It's designed to get the bomb to the target area safely. I guess that's why Arthur wanted us to take a piece of this rocket." Cheryl explained as she yanked off the inner compartments of the rocket and hurried to complete their mission.
The chaos in the ship continued to increase, and Presider Shakstress was so busy facing the team of Arthur that she had no time to give orders.
"Octarion, focus on destroying the walls and try to break your way into the Commander centers. Richie, send him a map. We have to keep the focus of Shasktress divided."
Octarion began to create powerful punches that had nuclear power.
BOOM! BOOM!
Various Exoskeletons began to attack Octarion, but they were easily killed and crushed from the wild might.
Arthur was holding two long-ranged weapons and was shooting at the enemies that were appearing from a distance.
The destruction that they had made created a huge gap inside the ship, and Octarion's attacks continued to blow away walls and floors.
Shakstress was forced to activate a powerful shield as she gave more orders of the next step. But with the intense fluctuations that made the area around her unstable, she was unable to activate her shrinking techs.
Richie was the only one who kept attacking, but now, his allies were in position.
"Let's do this! Three-Part Harmony battle formation!" Richie ordered.
Richie, Chase, and Sammy released a powerful shout that resonated mightily.
The melodious vibrations added on to each other and created a powerful vibrating power, and three spears shot towards Shakstress.
Shasktress enclosed herself as the Throne was covered by a large dome, and the force field guarding her also increased in size.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The three sound spears struck the forcefield and destroyed it, and pushed on to attack the dome that covered the Throne.
But as the spears struck, the three discreetly threw in a horn and a cube as the sound erupted from their mouths. The weapons rushed in and created another explosion.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The Throne was already used to fighting against Pridgeon earlier, and Shakstress already had some damages from his battle. Now, the powerful desolation of Meng, the mighty impacts of Richie's shout, Octarion's punch, and Lennox's Lightning began to erupt and attack the Throne.
"The package is near!" Madison informed Arthur, and he moved to kill the next squad of Exoskeletons that were ordered to kill the intruders attacking Shakstress.
Oark and Cheryl had arrived after outfitting the round weapon they had absorbed the air in the ship.
"Shoot it towards my location. Gardo! Attack now!" Arthur ordered.
Cheryl and Oark arrived just on time and launched the massive container.
Gardo was already on the collapsed floor below and was positioned right in time. His right arm was coiled around to an extreme degree that his arm looked like a spring.
The explosion of desolation and lighting had not yet ended when Gardo had already jumped towards Shakstress.
The chaotic explosions and attacks were all according to Arthur's prediction. Gardo safely arrived before the Throne and aimed his attack at the center where the three Sound Spears struck the Throne.
"Gomu Gomu no.... Piercing Rifle!" The fanatic cry of Gardo echoed out, and his hand punched out and crossed the distance.
BANG!
As Gardo's stretching arm connected created an explosion. But his arm kept on spinning like a drill that somehow managed to penetrate deeper.
The forceful drilling shattered the bones of Gardo, but as his fist disconnected from the Throne, he raised his other arm and held out a cylinder.
"Hope I damaged it enough!" Gardo clicked on the cylinder that contained Typical's power.
STAB!
The invisible needle pierced through the Throne and struck Shakstress.
"Argh!" She was knocked back and was thrown off her seat.
The large container that Oark and Cheryl launched zoomed through the desolation and got struck by lightning. It shattered just in time to send the ball, which had shrunk down as it completed its compression protocol.
Arthur ran and, using one of the guns he had, struck it like a baseball bat.
SMASH!
"Home run." Arthur smiled.
The small ball zoomed towards the Throne, and the bat swing created a crack on this ball, and the contained wind was trying to break out. The desolation and lightning were just dying out just as Arthur calculated, but it was enough to further damage the ball that was compressing so much wind. It flew with great accuracy and zoomed right inside the small hole made by Gardo.
Shakstress was too shaken from Typical's needle that by the time she noticed the ball that had entered her throne, it was too late.
A powerful wind force exploded out as the ball containing it finally gave in to the force.
The weapon was a weaponized application of Hermes's Path. Through the compression of the Blowing Wind of Hermes, they created a powerful wind bomb.
BOOM!
