Tear A Path 186 Good Punch

Even though her movements were very basic, each wing of the hammer would cover the whole s.p.a.ce in front of her, taking chunks of the floor and walls as it pa.s.sed by. He almost couldn't believe these were the same walls that could keep him locked in as it broke like biscuits in front of him. Those swings though not comparable to him in speed kept him backing away.

But leading people on was his forte, as he baited her advancement, she suddenly turned to look at her leg which was now caught in one of his wrap traps. Seeing his chance he closed in on Gary very quickly. "w.a.n.g Zhao Wei! Don't.." Grendolyn tried to warn him, a little too late.

His fist collided with her face with a thump. Though the next part left him dumbfounded as she just looked at him as if nothing happened. The punch didn't even push her face back, if anyone was watching, they'd think that he just gave her a love-tap. But Zhao Wei knew he didn't hold back, at least not by much.

If he'd use that kind of strength against anyone in Dracas he'd knock their jaw clean off their face and then some. And yet it didn't even cause Gary to budge. Instead in the next moment the hammer came swinging at him full on. At this range he really didn't have the choice of coming out of the exchange unscathed so he decided to just jump and lean backwards as the hammer came cras.h.i.+ng into him.

It felt like a bus ran into him, if he'd stood his ground instead of jumping, there was a chance he'd have to leave his legs behind. His body flew back and crashed into the wall next to where Grendolyn had retreated during the fight. Pulling himself off, a Zhao Wei shaped imprint was left behind. "Care to join in the fight? ughk!" He spit up a mouthful of blood as he looked at Grendolyn.

"And do what!?" She panicked, "She doesn't have a lot of mana but her physical abilities surpa.s.s mine by a long shot right now, if I stood in front of her at most I'd be a pebble she could kick around."

"Then what am I!?" Zhao Wei shouted back as a stream of blood dripped down his head.

"I don't know, but you better figure it out soon, here she comes." And sure enough Gary was already moving in towards them, snapping his upgraded wrap trap like paper, for some reason this reminded Zhao Wei of when he first faced the Death Traps.

"Okay then let's try something else," As Gary bounded towards them, Zhao Wei bent down into a sprinting position. With each step, he saw the dust shake off from the surrounding. Then he ran towards her, his body leaning forward almost parallel to the ground, as fast as his feet could take him, almost breaking gravity's hold of him and floating off the ground, but gravity was exactly what he needed right now.

Seeing him come to her, Gary roared and swung her hammer sideways. Zhao Wei was already doing his move. He couldn't afford to wait for when he saw the hammer coming, instead he watched her shoulders. Like it or not she still needed to roll them to swing, and that gave him the signal he was waiting for.

With his upper body so close to the ground, he just needed to reach his right hand out to touch it. The little friction it provided pulled his body back wards as he slid his feet forward, switching into a sliding tackle. The hammer swung just above him, threatening to carve out some of his stomach if he hadn't wittingly decided to suck in his gut.

Sliding between her legs, he didn't forget to leave a length of Flaming Silk Trap on the floor. Once she saw him disappear, she stopped in her tracks to Zhao Wei's delight as he pulled on the Silk Trap whose ends he attached to his own hands. As soon as he did so, the nigh invisible sharp string was pulled tight against Gary's legs and cut them clean. But Zhao Wei didn't even manage to make a smile before it turned into a frown as he saw the legs that were cut instantly repair itself.
