Chapter 167: The Great Rabbit Incident (3)
The battle between Eight and the Watcher continued. Not that either of them fought directly—Eight had no reason to be on the frontlines as a scientist, and the Watcher, well, it was the moon.
Their conflict escalated into a war of weapons. Evilusroids versus the Moonlit. Naturally, the Evilusroids had the upper hand at first.
[Enemy detected.]
[Fire at will.]
With bases established on the surface and an abundance of planetary resources, the Evilusroids overwhelmed through sheer numbers. While each Moonlit might have been superior to an Evilusroid individually, that advantage couldn’t overcome a disparity of dozens to one.
Besides, the Evilusroids functioned like an organized military force, deploying large helicopters and tank artillery. Their personal firearms outclassed B-rank heroes, and in groups, they posed a threat even to A-ranks—or potentially even S-ranks.
The Moonlit, on the other hand, were practically unarmed. They could reshape parts of their bodies, but there were limits. They couldn’t simply face heavy weaponry head-on.
And yet.
Despite that.
As time passed, Eight began to feel uneasy.
‘What’s going on? Why no counterattack?’
The Watcher wasn’t the type to give up so easily. If it intended to surrender, it wouldn’t have started a conflict in the first place. Picking a fight only to back down made no sense.
