"Humph, you will pay for your arrogance," the pink-ish blond-haired girl said as she aimed both her guns at Almond, their barrels sticking against each other.
A blindingly fast beam was unleashed at Almond, who simply transformed into lightning, dodging and streaking forward with his full power.
Sword of Imperishable Zenith!
Sword Bending Motion!
He counter-attacked two people on the way who tried to attack him, his sword enchanted with elements and empowered him with Severance Blade layer hummed death as his slashes diced both people through their armor in the blink of an eye while he already appeared in front of the girl with guns.
She barely reacted in time to conjure a shield in front as the impact sent her away instead, sparing her life.
"He killed Mezra and Rolin!
Almond was bombarded with attacks instantly while he felt a focused pair of eyes, but he was stronger, faster, and tougher!
Almond easily deflected attacks as he streaked in golden lightning again, materializing between a pair who were buffing others and unleashing long-range magic attacks.
’Fuck, he is too fast!’
The man and woman felt their heart turning cold when they sensed Almond in their Focus Field right between them.
Almond finished them off, his attacks unblocked, undefendable, and undeflectable for the duration of the skill Sword of Imperishable Zenith!
’Leo, we can’t defeat him!’
’Use artifact and escape!’
’Let me try one time! Trap him! This fucker already kill four, damn it!’
Leo roared, bursting out with full power as he also streaked as lightning with his S-rank Lightning Elemental Mastery’s effect.
Almond felt magic waves as several skills activated.
He quickly dashed away, and in his previous location, a crystal prison emerged from the ground.
But even if he dodged that, he suddenly found his legs bound by black tentacles.
Almond sensed two more skills activating as vines and ice formed around him, while Leo with his ultimate attack was streaking at him with six plasmic lightning orbs floating around him.
Almond remained calm, his domain capturing everything as he serenely waved his sword.
Sword Bending Motion—Twelve Slshes.
In an instant, twelve slashes of Severance Blades burst out in different directions.
Out of all, six of them went towards Leo.
Leo directly felt death as his senses captured the slashes. ’Damn it!’
He shot the six lighting orbs forward without the slightest hesitation to trigger an explosion against the slashes while he conjured a barrier using a skill, and a device for maximum protection.
Meanwhile, the other slashes obliterated the dark tentacles, vines, and Ice stream.
Two more died, and right after that, the pinkish-blond-haired girl put away her weapons and tapped at her wrists.
She magic whispered to Leo and everyone.
Almond went to his next target, but suddenly, the remaining six people vanished, disappearing instantly.
Almond’s eyes flickered as he observed the change in space. ’They teleported, a fairly long one.’
’Cyberterra, eh? You all got some nice advance-tech items. Their armor also had the same toughness as Legendary-rank items. That Leo’s barrier also managed to nullify my Severance Blades’ remaining power and kept him safe as he only suffered moderate lacerations from residue.’
’Tsk, the dead bodies are also gone.’
If he had taken the bodies, he could have had access to new tech and other information after scanning their bodies.
’Next time, I have to put them in the storage ring. For now, I should quickly go.’ ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novèlfire.net
Almond wanted to get the Heart of Lagoon, but Sylvia’s group with Marcus, Amir, Talia, Noah, and Jian along with other gold rankers was in trouble.
He quickly started making a teleport gate here so that he could return here fast instead of traveling long distances.
Meanwhile, the group was holding off against the ten Draconians and their five pet dragons of Gold rank by staying defensive mostly, mainly thanks to Marcus and Sylvia.
The draconian bombarded them with attacks while taking on occasional counter-attacks from Noah, Talia, Amir, and others and exchanging various skills, but it was clear that the Draconians were slowly overwhelming the group.
The moment Marcus’ skill ended, people would start dying.
’Marcus, how long do we have?!’
’Is anyone coming? Fuck, I’m scared. It’s like waiting on a chopping board right now. They are not stopping their attacks!’
’Sylvia told me Almond is coming.’
’Ten seconds until I empty my Ironheart Force,’ Marcus informed with a grave expression.
The draconian were surprised at the toughness.
"Cockroaches, stop struggling. There’s no escaping for you."
"Give them a big one, guys."
The attacks suddenly decreased in intensity, so Noah, Talia, Amir, and others quickly launched their attacks.
Sylvia, Marcus, and a few others quickly chugged potions and continued focused on buffing, healing, and protecting.
The enemies were getting injured as well, but no one had died so far with everyone recovering with items and skills.
"They are making a big move!"
"What the fuck is that giant orb?"
"Five seconds until Marcus’ skill dies. If that attack dropped after that…"
Suddenly, everyone saw a long and wide slash appearing, pitch black with a silvery hue, cutting that attack condensed by five draconians, causing it to explode.
Almond arrived by connecting to the coordinates of Sylvia’s location and doing a long-range teleport, shifting his location of space directly here.
The draconians stopped and looked at Almond.

’Their attention is on him after he destroyed their attacks. Let’s recover before the fight continues,’ Noah relayed to everyone.
Meanwhile, the leader who was a dragon-scaled humanoid of crimson and yellow scales with a fancy warrior-ish full-body scaled armor narrowed his eyes at Almond.
"Are you Almond?" he asked, eyes glinting with clear caution. ’That level of attack, and he seems casual. If it’s not that Almond of rank 1, then planet Earth may have two powerful gold rankers.’
"Well, I am indeed Almond. Anyway, let’s continue the party," Almond grinned and vanished, appearing right behind the guy while his sword swung back.
"The leader just got cleaved or what?!"
