Chapter 134: Hard
[Talent: Adamant – activated. Elian Reed is now immune to fear and psychological effects so long as the Talent remains active.]
Elian’s body launched forward. Igniting his thrusters with Cinderglass, he weaponized his mass like a battering ram. However, the closer he got to Tide That Roars, the more resistance he felt.
The enemy Tyrant raised his hands, which began to glow with energy. The air around his claws turned semi-solid like plasma. Elian’s body ceased to advance in the next moment.
It was as if he were trying to push against a wall; Elian couldn’t move forward a single inch. His thrusters screamed, his body creaked, but still he remained in place.
"Like that would stop me."
[Talent: Driven – activated. Elian Reed will never lose consciousness in the face of an enemy.]
Bracing his core, Elian opened the compartments on his shoulders and activated one of his most powerful trump cards.
"Blockbuster!"
The signature thunderous roar of metal and fire erupted. Fifty baseball-sized projectiles flew into a supersonic swarm of death! At such a short distance, stopping them was impossible.
Elian saw Tide’s face grimace; he quickly adjusted his arms to cover them with the same blue plasma on his hands. The swarm of pellets slowed down, but like a cloud of locusts, they still ravaged Tide’s entire body.
"Reload."
