Chapter 1077 Storm Leviathan
Looking down, Shiro spotted three that were around her strength while the fourth was the Leviathan that strangely had a slave rune around his neck. It wasn’t too clear from the image that Misu had showed her but upon further inspection, Shiro realised that tier 8 magic circles were integrated with the rune.
’If I was given a day, I should be able to break it apart.’ She mused to herself since she would need to experiment a little. Breaking a tier 8 rune was not an easy task considering the difficulty of studying the tier 8 runes she has now.
However, while she was thinking about this, two of the monsters moved into action. Breaking their chains, they disappeared from the spot.
Nan Tian wanted to help but Shiro shook her head.
This was going to be a good workout for her.
*BANG BANG!
Blocking their strikes with her hands that had reinforcement runes on the back of her hands, she grinned.
"How rude. Attacking this Empress before declaring your intent verbally. I suppose I should mark you down for execution then!"
Pulling the two closer to her, nanobots surged around her as they merged into two shotguns.
*BANG!!
Shooting both guns at once, she was a little surprised to see a multi-layered barrier that managed to withstand her strike.
Her eyes quickly darted around and noticed how they formed this barrier.
The one to her right, the second monster cast the first shield while the one besides Revel ’mirrored’ the effects to save the first monster.
’Second one blocks, third one multiplies.’ Shiro noted down in her mind as she pushed the two away before summoning a sword to her hand. It wasn’t Silvanis since that would make it boring for her. After all, with Silvanis, her attacks practically ignore all defence.
Stomping down, she jumped through the rift and appeared in front of the first monster.
"Nice day to die isn’t it?" Shiro asked with a charming smile before cleaving down with her blade. Flames erupted from the edge as the monster widened his eyes.
However, before the sword could reach him, the second monster flashed between them as barriers formed around his body before being mirrored several times over.
*BOOM!!!!!!
Shattering several layers immediately, Shiro was forcefully knocked back by the impact as she stabilised herself in the air.
Sensing some danger behind her, she slammed her hand down as several Ice Chains erupted out behind her as they attempted to restrain the first monster.
Sword like bones protruded from the monster’s arms as runes suddenly appeared on the blade.
Immediately scanning the runes the moment they appeared, Shiro realised that they were his passive skill which allowed him to adapt his attack to any defence. If they had a weakness to fire, his blades would shift elements.
’So one can adapt to get rid of any defence, one can block most attacks and the last and amplify their effects. That’s quite the team Thiria has under her belt. Plus, Revel is just watching right now. If he joins in, I won’t be able to use mana.’ Shiro thought to herself as she watched her blades get cleaved apart.
Curling her lips into a grin, she reached for the blades.
*PING!!!
Shattering them with her hand that was coated with nanobots and armour that Helion had created, Shiro narrowed her eyes.
Activating Keitoma, the monster felt his body freeze up completely.
Closing her eyes for a moment, she reopened them with a purple glow.
Eyes of the Gorgon!
His skin started to rapidly petrify as he released an explosion of mana between them, forcing them apart.
Quickly shielding her face from the attack, Shiro summoned a spear and parried an attack by the second monster behind her.
Returning her attention back to the first monster, she could see the petrification wearing off as the third monster was also supporting him with some support spells.
’So he’s not just for enhancing. A vanguard, tank and support. Standard three man cell with Revel being anti mage.’ Shiro thought to herself.
Understanding that it was about time for her to get a little serious, Shiro grabbed the second monster by his arms.
"Grit your teeth and take it like a real monster." Shiro chuckled as her eyes glowed menacingly.
Pressing her leg against his chest, machine gauntlets appeared around her arms as she attempted to tear them out of their sockets.
Seeing this, the first monster quickly reacted as the blade cleaved towards her head.
However, Shiro only smiled as an array of weapons appeared behind her.
Activating several tier 8 runes on her arms, she could see the horror and fear in the monster’s eyes as her lips curled up into a sadistic grin.
*KRSHHHH!!!!!
Ripping out the arms, she threw them back as she grabbed him by the throat.
Crushing his windpipe, she pulled back with her hand as a blade was created with nanobots.
Piercing his chest and ignoring all of the defences he put up, Shiro cut straight down and split the bottom half of his body apart.
Letting the blood spill against her, she devoured the body with her nanobots and turned towards the first monster that was now trapped in an array of weapons that constantly sought to take his life.
The third monster was frozen with fear, unsure of what to do since this was not what they expected. Her attack power was far beyond their comprehension.
"If you don’t make a move, your little friends will be gone. But you seem like you have something you want to say." Shiro smiled as Revel transformed into his human self.
"You seem to be experienced with the runic language on this collar." Revel spoke as he flinched from the backlash of his collar.
"How versed are you with it?" Revel asked as Shiro smiled.
"Give me a day and I can free you from your collar. I can offer you freedom to do as you please in the world. However, you can also help me. But it will not be like the current... situation you have with Thiria. Two people of equal footing. I will assist you when you need me and in return I expect the same. Proper allies." Shiro offered as Revel narrowed his eyes.
Ignoring the burning on his throat, he squeezed out the next sentence.
"I want you to make a vow that everything you say is indeed the truth."
"Of course. I vow under my name as the Nanotech Demi Goddess that my offer towards Revel is the truth." Shiro nodded as golden lights appeared around her, verifying the vow.
Seeing this, Revel nodded his head as he reached towards the third monster.
*BOOM!!!!
Without a chance to defend himself, he was completely eviscerated by the lightning that erupted out from Revel’s palm.
"Hng!" Flinching from the pain on his collar, he watched as an avatar of Thiria appeared above him, glaring at him with cold eyes.
"What do you th-"
"Silence! Do not speak another word to me vile woman. If I stay as your slave for another moment of my life then I’d rather die. Know this, if I live past this day then I will become your enemy. You have humiliated my pride as the Storm Leviathan for long enough and you shall pay for your transgression! Live each day with the fear that I may come for your life at any moment!" Revel cut her off as her avatar was immediately destroyed.
Blinking her eyes in surprise, Shiro looked towards Nan Tian.
"I like his attitude." She said with a bright smile since it was something that she would do.
"Same with me. He’s got quite the spirit." Nan Tian chuckled as Shiro decided to stop playing around.
Snapping her finger, a null mana zone appeared around the first monster while the blades pierced towards him.
Each of the blades were coated with a layer of barriers that allowed it to work on internal mana for a short period of time. Enough to shred the monster to pieces. Before his corpse was repaired by Shiro’s spell. She needed this prime ingredient to be in good condition for Yin after all.
"I’ll leave the rest for you to deal with. I’ve pointed out which ones have clear souls and somewhat redeemable souls. You know what to do with them. If they don’t want to come then don’t force them. But if they want to attack, make sure they’re not too cut up or else Yin might be annoyed with the state of her ingredients." Shiro chuckled as Nan Tian nodded.
Flying towards Revel, Shiro could see burn marks around his neck from the collar but it was no normal wound. It was one that damaged the soul.
"Do not be concerned. I have my own methods to prolong this so that you may get as much time as you need. I can also heal myself afterwards." Revel said as Shiro nodded.
"Alright. I’ll slow it down for now and try to make it so that it doesn’t hurt. After that, I’ll need you to come with me to the zone so that I can properly start to decipher this collar and free you." Shiro said as Revel nodded.
Conjuring up several tier 8 runes to help him relieve the pain, Shiro created a portal back to the zone as Nan Tian was only able to convince three of the monsters. The others were loyal to Thiria until the end.
