BXBX NOVEL Chapter 101 The Chase Part-3
Chapter 101 The Chase Part-3
[Dragon arts: earthquake steps!]
Link stomped the ground with his right leg, the ground cracked open and a huge crater was created in a matter of milliseconds, the few raindrops that were falling calmly were swept away by the air pressure of the impact.
[Dragon arts: Rushed flurry!]
Link launched fifty kicks on Rio in a matter of two seconds most of which were blocked and the rest were deflected. But Link didn\'t flinch he squatted down and just as he squatted down Lia launched her attacks.
[Silver Lion Swordsmanship: Hundred-bee stings!]
Both of their back-to-back attacks forced Rio to step back and avoid the onslaught, Rio already had a few scratches on his face and arms from the previous attacks.
Time left: [ 52min, 45sec. ]
"Th-this…. I-I can\'t see anything at all!..." (Lenn)
"They are on a different level than us… we can\'t follow their movements…" (Ars)
"Th-the main problem is th-that… we can\'t get close to the members of team 2, only when we can keep Rio at bay…. But this…" (Leo)
Lenn clenched her sweaty hands and looked at the four top-rankers fighting while standing on the sidelines. She can feel the immense gap that she would have to fill with her strength in the future.
\'Even the aftermath of their attacks has destroyed the whole alter and nearby terrain has been totally changed. This is insanity! Can an academy student have such insane strength!?\' (Lenn)
If someone had told her about this before she would have laughed it off but now that it\'s happening in front of her very eyes, she is too shocked to say anything about this.
For Lenn, the most difficult to digest is the fact that there exists an individual who is as talented as her idol, Link. (By the way, Link\'s photos have been featured in many magazines and TV shows he is already very famous in the whole human empire as the most talented youth of this generation. Some have already speculated that he would be the fifth SS-ranker of this era.)
Lenn looked at the ongoing fight and determination flashed in her eyes:
\'Grandpa, I didn\'t acknowledge your words before, but now it seems you were right, there are indeed many talented individuals in the human empire that rival even Link, I must also work hard to reach that level…\' (Lenn)
…
Rio jumped and dodged a frost magic attack from Liam and landed right in front of the three newbies. He glanced at the shivering trio and contemplated:
\'If I keep dodging and deflecting it would be difficult to survive an hour-long onslaught for the newbies. The air pressure from the previous attacks has already caused them dizziness. In that case…\' (Rio)
"Why did you stop!? Are you already tired Rio!!?" (Link)
"Dahahaha… I didn\'t expect you to have such a low stamina! Now die traitor!!!" (Link)
[Elemental sword art: Wind type: flowing serpent!]
Rio took his sword stance, dark black sword intent concentrated on his sword and his dense aura caused Link and Lia to stand back…
While concentrating on his attack Rio glanced at the three newbies and said:
"Hey you three… start running towards the opposite direction like crazy… and don\'t stop for anything… I will keep these guys busy… but you will have to at least deal with your classmates though…." (Rio)
Hearing Rio\'s words the three of them glanced at each other, then they all nodded to Rio with determination in their eyes and they started to Run that very moment.
"You think I will just stand here and let them leave, you are dreaming!!!" (Link)
Link leapt towards the newbies with full force, but Rio blocked his way, Rio swords slashed, and caught by surprise Link tried to defend but got hit in the stomach.
Although the attack didn\'t cut Link\'s tough skin, the impact caused Link to fly away in the opposite direction. Taking the opportunity, Rio\'s sword slid like a serpent, slithering in the winds, he deflected Lia\'s stab attack and slammed the handle of his sword on Lia\'s forehead.
The impact caused Lia to stumble and lose her footing:
"Better keep those wings away for now…"
[Sword Intent!]
As Rio whispered those few words in Lia\'s ears, he used his sword intent and sliced off Lia\'s spirit wings in a blink of a second. Rio jumped aside after and his sword continued to slither like a serpent.
A huge fireball came and bombarded Rio\'s location:
"Got you this time!" (Liam)
"You think so…" (Rio)
Before Liam could cheer he found that Rio had jumped in the air and was already standing on the back of the wyvern.
"You-" (Liam)
In front of Liam\'s shocked eyes, Rio raised his sword covered in dense sword intent.
"Bye-bye, pesky lizard~" (Rio)
With an expressionless face that was covered with a little burn mark on his left cheek, Rio swung his sword, the thick sword intent on directly severing the right wing of the wyvern.
*grrrraaaaaaaaghhhhh!!* (Wyvern scream noises)
Rio smiled a little.
\'Atleast this will keep him busy for a few minutes…\' (Rio)
Rio jumped off from the back of the wyvern his sword turned into a broadsword and he landed on the broadsword. Using sword intent Rio flew towards the three newbies caught them one by one and left in the direction of the forest.
Rio attacked Link and then flew away everything happened in just ten seconds. Newbies like Lenn and Ars didn\'t even have the time to understand what happened all of a sudden, for them one moment Rio was struggling to cope with the trio\'s onslaught and the next few seconds he flew away while dealing hefty damage to the three of them.
"Wh-what just happened!!?" (Lenn)
The newbies couldn\'t even comprehend what happened in just ten seconds it was just too fast for their fickle eyes.
…
Meanwhile on Liam\'s side.
[Intermediate Wind magic: wind curtain!]
Liam cast his wind magic to save the newbies and himself from the fall damage, but he couldn\'t cast the magic for his wyvern on time, which caused it to directly collide with the ground, causing its front legs to break.
The wyvern wailed in agony due to the severe pain.
…
On the other side, Lia used her spirit skill and regenerated her silver wings.
"You can\'t escape so easily!!" (Lia)
Lia flew towards the retreating figure of Rio.
"How are you all able to fly!!" (Link)
Helpless that he couldn\'t fly, Link stomped on the ground and jumped in the same direction Lia had flown to.
Looking at the two heading off, the members of both of their teams also hurried off and left the central area.
…
Liam hurried towards the head of the wailing wyvern. He placed his right hand on the head of the wyvern:
"Don\'t worry! I will cancel the summoning for now, it will be better for you to rest and recover for now." (Liam)
A huge magic circle appeared under the wyvern and the wyvern disappeared with the circle in the flash of a bright light. (Liam\'s summon is an astral being that can recover using Liam\'s mana after being de-summoned.)
"Rest well, my friend." (Liam)
…
Rio glanced at the three newbies hanging below, Rio bound them all together just like before and now they were flying towards the outer gates of the SSA.
\'From the looks of it, those three might catch up to me in no time, I would need to put a considerable distance between us. If they caught up to me the same trick won\'t work twice on them.\' (Rio)
\'Sigh~ babysitting is a difficult task after all… guess we will have to hang on for a while…. Such a pain…\' (Rio)
…
