Chapter 179 - Intense Battle
Phyllida's expression slowly calmed down. "Before I make a decision, I have a question for you." Her face was calm, it was clear she had a sudden change of mind. She locked her lips as she stared at David with a weird excitement in her eyes.
"What is it?" David asked with a smile on his face.
"I want to confirm... just how strong you are!" her voice barely faded when Phyllida charged towards David with blinding speed. Her right hand formed a blade and she brought it towards his forehead.
David lifted his arm covered in black to block Phyllida's hand blade.
"Boom!"
Two great forces collided together and visible grey waves of air exploded from within the collision.
"I have no interest in wasting my time with a weakling!" Phyllida shouted furiously. She swung her elbow towards him but was immediately blocked by David's other arm.
"Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!"
The two of them fought fiercely in close quarter combat. They did not use any technique, only with the power of blood and flesh. They only unleashed the pure strength from their bodies.
The intense and wild collision formed a sort of ringing cacophony in the surrounding area. The densely parked waves practically produced vibrations of tremors, sending through the entire building.
Countless stones and sand were practically flying everywhere due to their destructive force.
Phyllida's moves were wild. She didn't even bother to defend herself and went all out on offence. Her combat Suit automatically negate David's attacks, conducting them to the ground.
Even when David's attacks directly landed on her, the suit produced a sort of wierd oscillatory frequency, shaking off his attacks as though they were nothing. Faint ripples spread through her body
But David wasn't any different, although he was slightly flustered by her attacking methods, giving Phyllida the opening and opportunity to land all sort of attacks on him, his body was extremely sturdy. Every strike that landed on him produced a clanging sound, as though they were striking metals, his defences refused to budge in the slightest bit under the support of his bronze body and the Combat Suit.
But in just a moment, David adapted to the battle style and his moves became even more reckless an unrestrained. In a bid of excitement, he smashed his head against hers seemingly forgetting she was putting in an helmet. He was immediately repelled a few times which allowed Phyllida the opportunity to land a few kicks and punch his way.
"Cyclonic Palm Slash!" Furious, David brought his palms together. In an instant, he lashed out with a terrifying speed several times faster than before. He formed a blade with his palms and slashed downwards.
"Hahahahaha!" Phyllida laughed loudly even when she knew she couldn't take in such attack. Suddenly, her rapidly beating heart suddenly increased in circulation. Her strength all of a sudden rose to an astonishing degree.
She yelled "Supreme Might!"
"Boom!" the air shook forcefully and staggered David backwards from punch. His flesh rippled massively, and the colour of his flesh alternated between red and his bronze colour, as though it was about to fall apart.
David stared at Phyllida seriously as his brain pondered. "So it's called Supreme might uhn? If that's so then," David muttered.
In fact, it was just a simple Adrenaline rush but the might was astonishing when it manifested on a Spryher. Even phyllida didn't know what it was, but she named it 'Supreme Might' because of the massive increase in strength.
David then muttered with a wild grin " Of that's the case, then. Supreme Might!" he yelled the last two words.
His muscles bulged as though inflated by something, his flesh showed a slight red colour along his pinkie sized veins crawling like earthworms along his body.
His speed abruptly increased and he countered phyllida's Kick with his bulging arms that was almost as thick as a grown man's thigh.
"Bang!" They were once again evenly matched. And in the next moment, the close combat resumed but the destructive waves from their clash increased exponentially. Visible waves of sound waves kept on exploding outwards, creating a type of force waves that disintegrated everything on its way.
Countless rumbles rained down in the surrounding area, turning it into a danger zone.
"Swish!" they rapidly retreated and both of their breathing were rough.
"That was satisfying but sadly, i had hope you would put up a little bit of fight, I just didn't think you were this strong. Let's see if you can handle me this time." Her breathing steadied and she continued.
"Activate second from." Even as she said this, Phyllida clenched her fist slightly as though she was holding something, she suddenly took a large stride forward and abruptly took her hands behind her back.
David frowned, he didn't know what she was trying to do. If she was going to attack with her fist by smashing it downwards, the outcome wouldn't be any different than the previous time. Even then, there was still a small distance between them, it was certain that her arm wasn't long enough to cover a distance of half a meter.
Nevertheless, David didn't let his guard down, his heart beat circulated fiercely but didn't surpass the limit he had set for it. He stared at her, curious and also cautious.
Phyllida suddenly pulled hand back, bringing along with it a long thick Sword seemingly out of thin air. She made a solid forward Slash with it.
David's eyes flashed and without hesitation he held his palms together, forming a palm blade. "Cyclonic palm Slash!" he brought his joined palms forcefully.
"Tsss! Boom!"
The hands and blade of the two opponents met.
A dense ring of ripples suddenly appeared. It seem to contract and then exploded with a loud boom.
In an area of several tens of meters, the earth cracked and every obstacles around that area had been thoroughly destroyed.
Countless amount of energies burst out from them, even air was showing signs of combustion.
"You call me a weakling, do you think you are an expert?" David yelled loudly.
Phyllida only smirked under her helmet and then, the black blade seem to have disappeared and then a flash of black light slashed David's waist.
Shortly after, another blade seems to appear and slashed forcefully at his shoulder, a third blade then appeared like a phantom, slashing against David's body.
"Whoosh!"
All of a sudden, three arms seem to emerged from David's body and he mercilessly sent them smashing at towards Phyllida and her incoming blades.
They had barely emerged when they immediately suppressed the Black blades.
The black blades shattered in quick succession while making cracking sounds.
In fact , those three blades Phyllida seem to conjure weren't at all blades, they were just the after images of her explosive short burst of strength which made it look like she had slashed at David with three arms when in fact, her blade was just too fast that it seem there were three of them when she had attacked three times.
David didn't know the technique but he followed his instincts and the burst of strength seem to match perfectly with him. His hands had been so fast that he seem to have grown three peers of them.
Phyllida could not help but retreat swiftly. She barely avoided the remaining force of David's newly grown arms and then, she suddenly charged forwards explosively, creating a black mark in the air.
The Sword mark seem to slash apart space, it passed through several wind resistance, tearing apart every blockage, it strangely avoided the phantom arms and landed heavily on David.
Seemingly feeling the threat, David roared explosively and then, an arm appeared from behind him, then another, then the third then the fourth, the fifth, sixth, till the tenth.
All of a sudden, the ten arms moved joining together to from a huge shadow of a palm, from his shoulder. It was as if a gigantic arm had grown from there.
The arms moved suddenly, instantly landing against the sword scar bearing down on him.
"Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! "
"BOOM!"
At first, the sound of the ten arms, slashing at the sword in quick succession rang out, then. An even more explosion took. Place as the blade was forcefully repelled.
David had performed a slightly long short burst of power, smashing against the sword ten times in a row, successfully repelling the sword move.
All of a sudden, he fell backwards. But a leg shot upwards with incredible speed, lashing out Phyllida's shoulders.
The kick had been originally aiming at her chest, but she managed to dodge it, allowing it to hit her shoulder, that was why it missed slightly.
"Again!" Phyllida was truly excited. In the next second, tens of sword shadows seem to appear out of no where as she executed another short burst of power. The blade seem to come from left, right, up, down, sideways, forming a row of densely parked sword.
Her body shook greatly and then, she released the hell of blades upon David.. And ordinary Spryher would definitely be put into despair.
