“Moving on, let me see your powers... little guy.” Garen lifted the Dual Blade from the ground. A scraping noise could be heard when the two surfaces rubbed against each other. Meanwhile, the red light inside the eyes of Garen’s Mech grew more intense.

Whoosh!

A thunderous noise echoed from the Mech while Garen rose into the sky again and flew towards another location that was resonating.

************

The Mech that Clint was piloting dashed across the ground as if it was flying. The speed of this Mech was extremely fast and it did not look as heavy as its outer shell. There was a faint crack on its arm from blocking Garen’s sword. The leg that it had released earlier for its sneak attack had automatically flown back as well, further proving Red Moon’s adept Mech modification abilities.

Most of the alleys in the factory area were large and broad. They were completely suitable for Mechs to run through at high speeds. Clint’s Mech did not make any footstep noises at all. Its electromagnetic induction was even bound by a specialized Energy Field that prevented it from leaking at all.

“What do we do now?” asked Clint while panting violently. When the Mech ran, the Mech Pilot themselves would bear the exhaustion.

If the mysterious Nine Mega Cannon Training Method had not allowed him to achieve extremely powerful physical qualities, a Mech Pilot unlike himself would have been out of breath long ago. After all, this damaged Mech lacked buffering equipment. Therefore, after engaging in a few highly difficult actions for more than ten seconds, Clint’s entire body would experience disproportionate blood flow and become dizzy because of the inertia when the Mech moved.

“What else can we do? Run!” said Red Moon impatiently. “Look for an opportunity to escape into the sewers below!”

“We’re going there again...”

“What else do you plan on doing?”

“O... Okay...” Clint was helpless. The sewers were excruciatingly smelly and if he had a choice, he would not go down there a second time. Unfortunately, the current situation left him no other option.

The damaged black Mech resembled an abnormally nimble disabled person who could run and jump down the entrance of the nearest sewer instantly.

“Look out behind you!!” yelled Red Moon suddenly.

Clint rolled forward quickly. This move had allowed him to escape from the Red-White Mech many times. He used the strength of the Nine Mega Cannon to roll forward quickly while exerting a large amount of force. The further he traveled, the faster he moved. This move was truly worthy to be an ultimate move for escaping and saving one’s life during a battle.

Bang!

A deep sword mark appeared on the ground suddenly where Clint had been earlier.

A Blackboard Mech descended from the sky behind him and stood there with one knee on the ground. This Mech was actually the one that Garen was using previously.

“He’s here again! Damn it! Go as fast as you can!!” panic filled Red Moon’s mind. Every Jump would deplete his energy sources that had been accumulated over many years. “Curses! If only I hadn’t consumed so much energy during the explosion previously...”

Clint took a big step and leaped forward after hearing those words. He had barely dodged the blade that had come at him directly from behind.

“Still thinking of rolling away?” a cold voice echoed behind him while another gust of chilly wind blew over. At this moment, a second blade came flying at him again.

“This speed is amazing!!” yelled Red Moon while summoning his last bouts of strength. “Blink!!”

Tch!

Clint moved instantly and was blinded suddenly. He did not know where he had landed in the blink of an eye. However, it was clear that he had not entered the sewer successfully.

“Ugh... Blegh!!!” When he was finally unable to hold himself back, Clint sat in the cockpit and barfed violently. These continuous Jumps and Blinks had finally taken their toll on his body. It seemed as though the gates to the dam that was his stomach had finally opened, causing him to vomit everything out messily. Yellow, white, and brown substances blended with one another like sticky Chinese congee.

The cockpit was instantly filled with a disgusting sour stench.

“Don’t get it on my body, you disgusting smelly kid!” yelled Red Moon furiously.

willpower

The Mech continued to roll forward. It got up and took big steps before running forward again. Clint was unable to tell which direction he was going in anymore and just ran around carelessly.

“Found you! Bastard!” a terribly battered Red-White Mech appeared behind him suddenly. The Mech’s entire body was thrashed and seemed to be in even worse conditions than Clint’s Mech. More than half of the light green crystal that was embedded in its chest was broken, making it seem dim and lustreless.

“It’s that Red-White guy! We’re dead!” Clint was exhausted from puking and could barely run forward while the distance between Red-White and himself grew closer.

“Don’t be afraid, I’ve prepared a secret weapon for you!” said Red Moon hurriedly.

“What secret weapon?!”

“Touch the small of your back for a bit!”

Clint followed his instructions and immediately touched that area.

Shh...

A large object that was thick, huge and dark bounced out and landed in Clint’s hands suddenly.

“So... So huge...!” while looking at the large item in his hands, Clint could not help but exclaim in shock.

“Like hell it’s huge! Hurry up! Turn around and hit him!” Red Moon roared.

Clint held the Gigantic Club in his hands tightly. This club was almost half as thick as his body and he did not know how it had been stuffed there. Clint did not think twice and rolled on the ground instead. He was looking upwards initially but when he rolled backward suddenly, he ended up colliding directly into Red-White who was behind him.

Windy, whooshing noises could be heard suddenly when he smashed the Gigantic Club in his hand towards his opponent. Instantly, the tip of the club twinkled for awhile and appeared behind Red-White’s body immediately.

“You’re asking to die!” the Red-White Mech sneered coldly and tried to seize the Gigantic Club single-handedly. Although its Level Five Willpower had sustained serious injuries, it did not have to exert much strength on a Level One small fry. He would exceed the Level One greatly even if they were fighting recklessly.

Bang!! Caught off guard, he ended up grasping at thin air instead as the tip of the club had apparently disappeared a meter in front of him. Next, Red-White could only feel pain in the back of his head. His sensors became fuzzy instantly.

A brief hissing noise could be heard as Clint disappeared before his eyes again.

“Oh... Sh*t!!!” Red-White flared up.

******************

“Just now... What was that? It was awesome!” asked Clint as he ran frantically while enduring the pain with great difficulty.

“It was the Gigantic Magnetic Club and Small Area Spatial Extension Technique. They are fatal moves that are used during critical moments! If you had not destroyed the skin of my Mech, we would have gotten rid of that Red-White who’s hot on our heels earlier on,” replied Red Moon furiously.

“In front!” Clint stopped in his tracks suddenly when a few super-miniature Mechs with Blackboard symbols appeared in front of him. These super-miniature Mechs were only the height of an average person and wore fitted uniforms on their bodies like steel soldiers.

The one similarity between them was the Willpower forces that lingered on their bodies, which were all much stronger than Clint’s.

“You could escape for such a long time despite the captain’s pursuit of you? Stop right there!”

The leading soldier outstretched both of his arms before vibrating Willpower forces shot out of its body suddenly and crashed towards Clint.

Hum...

The distorted Willpower forces resembled a comet. It was colorless and scentless but moved extremely quickly. Three consecutive waves of these forces connected and formed a line that rushed towards him. The floors and walls seemed distorted by the forces as they turned into soft substances that vibrated constantly.

“It’s that guy’s subordinates! Retreat!!” a hint of tiredness could be heard in Red Moon’s voice. “Duck!”

Clint felt as if his body had turned numb to these illusions that were happening now. He was already immune to the strong distortions caused by Dimensional Jumps.

When his vision was blinded suddenly, he appeared in front of the gigantic Black Mech again.

“Eh... What a coincidence...” Clint’s face was deathly pale. He smiled and opened his mouth to speak. “Blegh!!”

He vomited violently again suddenly. The rest of his breakfast came tumbling out, mixed with his yellow bile juices. He remained slumped in the cockpit seat while his entire outfit from the chest downwards was covered in a layer of vomit.

Whoosh!!

A ray of silvery grey light that was reflected off his blade slashed downwards from above.

Clint reacted by swinging the Gigantic Club in front and smashing it this way instantly. The tip of the Gigantic Club disappeared within moments as if it had pierced through thin air before it appeared at the back of the Black Mech’s head.

Clang!

Moments later, a silvery grey machete appeared in front of the Gigantic Club and blocked it. It was barely able to deflect this sneak attack.

“This move is useless against that guy! Damn! Move!” roared Red Moon angrily while Clint was blinded again.

Whoosh whoosh! Two rays of light that were reflected off the blade illuminated Clint’s initial position and left two bright scratch marks there. It was only a moment too slow.

Garen stood on his initial spot quietly while sheathing his sword slowly.

“He can’t run far. Keep pursuing him.”

“Yes,” a few replies echoed from his communication Terminal.

While glancing at the sensory map inside the Mech, he noticed that the red dot was now nearby. Garen continued to breathe more steadily.

“This is your final struggle against death.”

He sat down in the alley while sticking his Dual Blades into both sides of the ground.

**************

“Oh... Blegh...” Clint puked up more large mouthfuls of vomit. There were obvious traces of blood floating around in the rancid puddle. They were signs that the inside of his stomach was bleeding. “I... I can’t do this anymore...”

“How dare you, as a man, admit that something is impossible!! You stupid kid, you never listen when I tell you to practice more often and now you think you know everything! Hurry up and run! You can’t stay here!” yelled Red Moon.

“I can’t... I really can’t...” Clint felt as if his surroundings were spinning. He could not handle these many Jumps despite the foundation of his Nine Mega Cannon Training Method. His body collapsed limply while his eyesight had become slightly fuzzy, making everything look blurry.

“What’s wrong? Did it not work just now...?” Clint could barely run while asking about the previous situation.

“That guy’s reaction speed is way too fast and his basic combat skills are terrifying. People like these are typical cases of exceptionally talented fighters! Most people have secret moves and can attack sneakily but things like that are completely useless against professionals like this!” explained Red Moon quickly. “I’m going to prepare an ultimate move with the last third of my remaining energy.Hopefully, it’ll help us overcome this hurdle. If we’re unsuccessful, we’ll be truly dead this time. With less than two-thirds of my energy left, I will fall into a coma. If that happens, you’ll lose all hope of fleeing and staying alive if you’re left with nothing but your own powers!”

“How much... Time... Do you need?” asked Clint with great difficulty. He did not continue Jumping to allow his body to recuperate slightly. “I can’t do this anymore. I’ll really die if I keep Jumping!”

“I know, your bodily systems and cycles will collapse instantly if you Jump another two times. There won’t be any way for you to survive if you can’t find a way to heal yourself!” replied Red Moon. “Escape this way! The last entrance into the sewers is in front. We will win have the battle once you enter the sewers!”

“I feel like I’m about to die...” Clint was unbearably weak.

“Little Lon is waiting for you at home!! If you don’t want to die just fight for my damn sake!!”

“I...”

“Move!!” Red Moon Blinked immediately before the Mech charged forwards instantly. It leaped across a distance of a few dozen meters before appearing in another alley where the entrance to the sewers lay in front.

The dark black drain cover was like a dreamlike angel now. Through Clint’s eyes, it resembled the most beautiful and perfect bride in the world. He outstretched his arms while hot tears flooded his eyes and charged towards it.

“Ahh~~~ Drain cover!!!” right now, his eyes were brimming with tears.

It seemed as though time had slowed down instantly. This beautiful moment became slower and slower.

Suddenly, a Black Mech walked over slowly and used its strong, tall body to block the drain cover completely while obstructing the path in front of him.

At this moment, the happiness and joyful tears in Clint’s eyes dried up and vanished.

“No~~~!!!”
