Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 295: Alex vs Miles

Chapter 295: Alex vs Miles

Alex looked at shocked Number 7 and smiled softly. Lightning of this level can never hurt me. He said unperturbed.

He was Ukkos incarnation. A simple lightning attack didnt matter how it was charged, wouldnt damage him at all.

I give up. Number 7 raised her hand and forfeited from the competition. She used her final attack and had no effect on the opponent.

What is that armor? How can it unleash such an attack? The emcee said with his mouth agape.

That is an advanced crafting technique. Works similar to how wristwatches are made. By accumulating attacks of the opponent, armor can unleash an attack several times above the user's level. Milosh said and looked at Miles with regardfully.

That technique is rare. Even in the Academy, only one craftsman can make items such as that one, and he rarely forges. And when he does, it is only Evil-Rank or above. I have never seen this technique on Frenzy-Rank. Supreme Advisor Lukas said with a surprise too. Who is the craftsman?

Who do you think he is? Milosh asked unwittingly.

Supreme Advisor Lukas looked with uncertain gazes too. Emcee looked between them and couldnt understand what was going on.

Um, Dean? You know who the crafter is? Emcee asked.

Cut the crap, focus on competition, Milosh said with a little anger, making him hole up in fear.

Our next contestants are Number 2 and a dark horse, Number 31!

Number 31 was really a dark horse. Miles had seen this person when she came to discuss the employment, but in the end, Miles didnt sign a contract with her because of her rare element. Ghost Element!

Her superpower, Ghost Mirror, allowed her to defend against elemental attacks. The mirror would work as a gateway, and send the attack into an unknown plane. The element was so rare in Unity, people who could use this element could be counted with two hands.

Although monsters with the same element were also equally rare, the chance of working with her was offbeat. It was a better option to hire her service if an opportunity arose.

Miles wasnt sure about this fight, as he wasnt familiar with this element. But to his surprise, Number 31 raised her hand and forfeited.

I give up. I am injured and have no energy to use.

Miles looked at her and realized she was heaving deeply. Her eyes also looked tired.

What a development! Black horse forfeited, and we are going to advance to the final now! Emcee exclaimed. Miles was taken aback as well. He reckoned this fight would be touch-and-go, yet his opponent forfeited like that.

Number 1 and Number 2 will fight in the finals!

Miles looked at Alex, and both smiled at each other.

I charged the armor for this fight, Alex said with a grin.

Ah, I dug a hole for myself. Miles shook his head.

I know you are strong, lets fight, Alex said as the duo walked to the stage.

Miles charged the dagger and Alex also fished out an orb. It was the aura orb augmenting his powers. The tutor looked at the orbs with surprise but didnt say anything. He only thought he should be ready to step in anytime.

Both Alex and Miles introduced themselves once again, and the fight started. Miles used his mind limb and tried to create an illusion right off the bat. Alex was too strong to be left alone, and he had to pressure him. An image of a fist descending on his face appeared in front of Alex, but he sent a current with his brain limb and burned the illusion away. When he came back to himself, Miles was in front of him.

Alex dodged and responded with a fist of his own. Miles didnt dodge but let it hit him on the chest. When Alex saw this, he felt something was amiss, but he wouldnt let this opportunity go away. But as his fist approached Miles, he felt his arm had entered a swamp. His fist was moving slower, and he couldnt even pull back fully.

He charged lightning, and his hand over Miles's chest was washed by purple currents. The energy that was constricting his arm was torn apart, and let him move once again, but the force of the attack was gone.

Changing the characteristic of your energy to quagmire-like. Admirable! Alex grinned and formed a lance in his hand. The lance was bigger and thicker than any Miles saw before. Alex pulled his hand back and threw it in his direction.

Lightning lance moved at the speed of sound and an explosion reverberated in the air. Miles dodged the lance, but the next second it changed its path and followed Miles's movement.

Miles hit the ground and chased after Alex. He had to get close range, as Alex was much better at the ranged battle. Miles swung the dagger in his hand, and the dagger tore apart the lightning current in the air. Although the death element was weak against lightning, it was still able to cut through the excessive currents flashing around his body.

Miless free hand turned into a claw, and he charged energy into his hand and turned it into five claws. When he was near Alex, he attacked. Five Fingers Claw Death!

The five fissures in the air, from the top of his head, moved towards Alex, but a starmap blocked the attack and clashed with the attack. Three marks on Alexs armor lit brightly, as lightning currents above his level flowed towards the starmap. When the armor was extinguished, the starmap was shining more than ever.

Miles's attack exploded on the starmap, but the force threw Miles back. The starmap was still fine.
