ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 510: Hijacking Star Part 2

Secret Finishing Move! “Gun Hand!!!”

Originally it was supposed to be a technique where I would hit the detonator with a knife, but it had a downside that it made your magazine hand look like a broccoli that was absorbed in way too much water. However! Cursed Prison’s hands are made out of metal and coated with metal! And since there is no limb destruction in this game, it means that I am going to be just fine! …… Probably.

CLUNK! My right fist accelerated forward just like a jackhammer would, and then the second joint of my right middle finger hit the detonator on the secret bullet without actually removing the bullet itself. And since I have managed to make my hand into a red broccoli a dozen times before, right about now I could easily replicate that move with my eyes closed! Now the only thing that was left for me to do here was to just sit back and enjoy the fireworks that were about to follow shortly.

「Bang!」

「You little shit…… What!?」

Originally, this technique was something that was to be used at a very short distance. So close of a distance that you could actually call it an “act of sexual terrorism”. Also, its hit rate left much to be desired. But I guess that is what you get when you try to use something like that by just casually trying to stick your left fist right into your opponent’s chest. However, the jackhammer-like movement that sped up the bullet and pushed it together with the detonator should be more than enough in there to cover up for that shortcoming. Even though it’s hit rate will still be pretty much garbage, at least it will be able to cover some distance!

And then there is one more thing here…… Oh yeah, and that thing should come through as one heck of a nasty surprise. This is the kind of a thing that once revealed totally radiates off the aura of a trump card, wouldn’t you agree?

However, those skills that I have been honing on that deserted island were not just for show, you know? And I was making sure that they would not go to waste or that they would be forgotten by me. Right now I can do it all with my eyes closed!

「Did you already happened to forget?」

When it comes to Cursed Prison, the magic trick behind being able to shoot bullets like that lies all in the fact that I was able to wear those machine small fries from before! And it would not be possible if not for the very nature of Cursed Prison! It’s mechanics! All of the above elements and a few extras are going to come together right now in order to make this thing happen!

And if that is so, then now…… The time has come for the trump card to reveal itself! The forehead flick! This is the one and only trump card that I am going to need here!

Realizing what the bullet in my hand was, Xenosergus instantly went into the guarding stance, wanting to minimize the damage as much as possible. However, it could not know that this bullet was not meant for it at all. It was actually meant for the Valkyrie who was trying to skewer both of us from behind while we were preoccupied with one another.

Just for a single moment out there, I’m the only one who counts on this battlefield. I’m the only one who dealt the cards and holds the fate of everyone present in the palm of my hand. I can feel the gust of wind picking up somewhere in the distance…… There is a really delicate tension hanging in the air, one that is sure to break apart even with the slightest of shock affecting it.

「Prison Break!!!」

「Kuh! CERBES……!!!」

–––––– That’s it. I won. It’s my win here.

However, the Gods of RNG truly are ungrateful, fickle and capricious beings. Yes, indeed they are.

「–––––– Huh?」

「–––––– Ah?」

Cursed Prison entered the state of “Prison Break” once more, and its armor started to dissipate. At the same time, Xenosergus activated its own ultimate ability, which caused its movements to become extremely sluggish. The two of us were about to clash with one another at the heliport which was decimated by all the destruction that was rampaging all around us.

However, at that specific moment.

Right in the middle of the two of us…… At those exact coordinates, there was a small light that started to flicker, like a ray of hope in the depths of the cold void. And then it spreads and solidifies, manifesting itself in this space under the guise of a small, beautiful crystal.

「Ult……」

「Crystal……」

「Oh no…… God fucking damn it!」

Oh, now I have done it! I may have created this opportunity, but thanks to the blank moment that the appearance of the Ult Crystal created, it was actually Amelia Sullivan who managed to seek this opportunity and use it to its full extent.

Xenoselgus starts to emit a bright green light from its entire body, and begins to move forward, one step at a time…… Right now it moves faster than its giant body would normally allow it to, all because it was burning its blood and cells for additional fuel. Hence the green aura surrounding its body.

「Wow!!!」

「Huh!!!」

We don’t even have any more insults that we can throw at one another anymore. Right about now the only thing we can do is to punch one another straight to the face in a fierce competition of who is going to take control of the Ult Crystal. All the while the clocks on our Super Finishing Moves are ticking away.

「Guh!」

「What’s wrong, what’s wrong!? Tired already!?」

When it comes to Xenoselgus’s Super Finishing Move, “Super Cell Burst” has a simple, yet very effective effect. It just goes like this: you become an unstoppable super armored force that cannot be stopped and none of your parameters can change. And this state is going to be in effect for about twenty seconds. And that’s it. So what about it? Umm, I don’t have to remind you that not being able to lose HP for about twenty seconds is kind of broken, right?

Yes, all parameters cannot change. They cannot go up, and they also cannot go down.

In other words, the current Xenoselgus can shoot an inexhaustible amount of gauge techniques for twenty seconds, and is invincible with no damage and no way to stun it. So if you are going to be trapped in its range, if you are going to get grabbed even once, you will be slaughtered with Infinite Suplex!

「OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!」

I’m sure to avoid the grabbing attack by the skin of my teeth, and I try to secure the Ult Crystal by dashing towards it at high speed. But it proved to be impossible. Not when there is a literal mountain of muscles standing in my way, and there is literally nothing I can do to move it or to blow it out of my way.

「God fucking damn it!」

「Kuh…… You little! You bastard!」

Realizing that I cannot possibly snatch the Ult Crystal first, I do the only thing that could be done here: I kick it away from the edge of the roof and watch it plummet towards the ground. Xenoselgus’s Super Finishing move lasts for twenty seconds. Prison Break lasts for twenty seconds.

Although it is superior in overall specs, it is impossible to break the invincible mode. But even so, its timer is going to run out way before the one from the Prison Break does.

What should I do!? Ten seconds is plenty of time, but still! I mean! The thing is! However! Agh, god fucking damn it all to hell!!!

Aaahh, but still, hmm…… Yeah, that’s right.

–––––– Seeing insects scratching at the bottom of their feet in desperation, the Gods of RNG couldn’t help but laugh in amusement.
