Chapter 148: Playing Sneak Attack, You Damn Thing [BONUS CHAPTER]
The dense barrage of beams made Skye's eyes widen.
Fortunately, her powerful physique had given her reflexes far beyond ordinary people, and her thinking speed was astonishingly fast.
As long as Skye stayed calm, she could make judgments even against attacks like these.
The beams were extremely dense, but strangely, they did not make Skye feel any danger.
Even so, Skye cautiously treated them all as lethal.
She stood in place, suddenly crossed her arms and clenched her fists before her chest, then smashed them outward into the air on both sides.
Boom!
An explosive shockwave swept out in every direction like a flood. With her as the center, it even formed a ring of vibration. Layer after layer of shockwaves spread outward like surging tides.
The surging vibration ring instantly drowned out the incoming beams.
It even shattered the energy barrier those monsters had created.
Rumble!!
The ground shook. Buildings on both sides collapsed and cracked apart. The earth trembled, and the monsters could not withstand the vibrating force at all, screaming as they burst one after another.
The entire block was destroyed by Skye's attack.
The huge commotion also affected Jessica and the main monster, who were fighting in the distance above the ground.
The monster seemed startled and stopped attacking. Its huge eye stared blankly downward, as if it had not expected all the children it created to vanish in an instant.
As for Jessica, she forcibly stabilized herself amid the airwaves produced by the shockwave and hovered in midair.
"Whoa. Skye, seriously."
Jessica swept her gaze across the area and saw that every building within several thousand meters had been destroyed by Skye's attack. The devastated scene made one's heart tremble.
She had always known Skye's ability was terrifying.
But she had not expected it to be terrifying to this degree.
No wonder BOSS had once jokingly said Skye's future codename should be World Destroyer.
Now it seemed she truly lived up to the name.
Too terrifying.
...
Below, amid the sky-filling dust and smoke, Skye waved a weak vibration current to disperse the surrounding dust. She looked left and right. The originally dense building area had become much emptier, and her field of vision had grown much wider.
She stuck out her little tongue, somewhat relieved that this was the Mirror Dimension world constructed by BOSS. Otherwise, if this had been the real world, who knew how many people she would have wiped out with that one attack.
Terrifying.
Amid her joy, Skye also began reflecting.
One of the training principles of the two warbands from beginning to end seemed to be that they had to possess precise control over their own power.
Otherwise, no matter how strong a power was, losing control of it could lead to many irreversible and terrible results.
Skye's attack just now would definitely fail the assessment standards of the two Warbands.
During training, Reacher and Natasha were also their instructors. The instructors were very strict. She could not forget the real-combat principles they had drilled into her.
So Skye immediately began reflecting—what should have been the correct action just now, which aspects she needed to strengthen, and so on.
With one monster and Jessica having stopped fighting while Skye was deep in thought and reflection, the atmosphere suddenly grew quiet.
In the distance, floating in midair on a luxurious single-seat sofa, Matthew sat with one leg crossed over the other, drinking coffee as he watched this scene.
The focus was elegance.
The two girls' performance could only be called passing. After all, they had only just obtained their power. It was understandable.
Moreover, he could see that both girls were growing and improving.
Indeed, real combat was the best method for growth.
Originally, Blackheart had also counted as one such opportunity.
Unfortunately, Blackheart was far too popular. An unkillable demon like him was a hot commodity for the two Warbands. Even fighting him had to be reserved and scheduled in advance.
Pitiable, really. The son of a dignified demon lord had been exploited to this extent. He barely had any rest time each day, and he was not even paid.
Strangely enough, even like this, Blackheart did not feel he was being tortured.
On the contrary, he fought every battle seriously.
Because to the soldiers of the two Warbands, Blackheart was a touchstone and a punching target. Likewise, Blackheart believed the two Warbands were his targets too.
After thoroughly accepting that there was no chance of escape, Blackheart's fighting spirit had instead been stirred up.
As expected of the son of a demon lord, whose ambition was so great that even Mephisto found him troublesome.
Matthew liked this kind of worker, so he silently added a few more layers of restrictions on him whenever he had time.
After all, Blackheart's growth speed was not bad either.
A child created by Mephisto himself was not to be underestimated in terms of potential. The two Warbands improved quickly enough, but Blackheart improved even faster.
If rookies like Skye and Jessica truly faced Blackheart, they would only be asking to be abused.
This kind of real combat suited them much better.
Boom!
The silence did not last long. The monster recovered from its shock and casually fired an energy laser at Jessica, hoping to kill her.
The monster was excited.
It could sense the surging vitality inside the bodies of Jessica and Skye, these two strange lifeforms, as well as their pure, clean souls.
To it, they were extraordinary food.
If it could eat them, it believed its own level of life would rise by quite a bit.
As for why only the three of them remained in this world and this city, the monster's brain did not bother thinking about it for now.
Destruction, slaughter, and devouring were what it had to do.
This was driven by instinct.
The sneak attack failed. In terms of pure physical enhancement, Jessica was stronger than Skye, especially in her senses. The moment she sensed danger, she had already dodged.
"Trying a sneak attack, you damn thing."
Jessica had never been some obedient little girl. When she was angered, curses came straight out of her mouth.
In her rage, Jessica went berserk.
Boom!
A wave of air exploded in midair. Jessica turned into a streak of red light, tearing through the sky as she charged straight at the monster. The monster was clearly frightened by the furious aura Jessica gave off and hurriedly fired beams from the large eyeballs on the tentacles covering its head, trying to stop her.
Unfortunately, Jessica's flight ability was extremely agile. Without reducing her speed, she turned sideways several times, dipped and rose, dodging all the dense beams fired at her one after another.
In an instant, she flew above the monster and raised her long leg high.
"Die for this lady!!"
Her leg came down from above, splitting like an axe stroke, and smashed hard into the monster's head.
This kick carried all of Jessica's strength. Even the energy barrier around the monster was forcibly shattered, and the force continued on, smashing into its head.
The monster howled as it fell toward the ground like a meteor.
The commotion immediately snapped Skye out of her thoughts.
She was in a battle. How could she lose focus at a time like this?
She raised her head and saw the monster falling from the sky several hundred meters away.
Skye narrowed her eyes, planted her feet one in front of the other, and drew her right fist back to her waist. An invisible ring of vibration energy coiled around her fist.
Then, facing the monster crashing down ahead, she threw a punch through the air.
Boom!!
