Chapter 1857. Tetsuo’s Fighting Style

Tetsuo used Rapid Shot at the archdemon but soon sensed an attack from behind. He swiveled in time to parry a dagger from a concealed high demon. This one was a level 78 eternal.

Several other mythical-grade demons around level 80 also came at him from all directions. It seemed that he had become the demons' primary target.

Tetsuo's face grinned for the first time. "This is more like it," he uttered.

A transformation happened to his body. His skin hardened and turned into carapaces. In a beat, his body was covered in interlocking layers of hard sh.e.l.ls. His eyes enlarged into two large bulbs of compound eyes. Two long antennas sprouted from his head.

He had used Beast Form, and his Beast Form was insect type.

The carapaces on his back opened. Two slim but long dragonfly wings came out. These wings beat at an incredible speed, and Tetsuo disappeared just before the demons arrived. He appeared right next to one of these demons and punched it.

"Power punch…!" He exclaimed.

"Ki bullet!" He yelled as an energy ball shot out from his fist and hit another demon.

When the archdemon cast another spell at him, he again disappeared before the spell hit. His dragonfly wings gave him extreme maneuverability. He could travel in every direction with a burst of speed and stopped abruptly. Even when these demons had mana sense to detect where he appeared, they couldn't react since they didn't have the speed to match him.

Tetsuo continued to zoom from one place to another, sending attack after attack while the demons had trouble following his positions. All the while, he continued to shout as he attacked.

"Power kick…!"

"Ki Blast…!"

"Power Shot…!"

The other royal agents who witnessed the fight from a distance were flabbergasted by how Tetsuo rendered those high-level demons helpless. Those demons couldn't land a single hit on Tetsuo. Alfredo was just about to send help before Tetsuo turned into an insectoid man. He didn't see the need for that now.

But still, did Tetsuo need to shout his skill names every time he attacked? His image as a lone and quiet man had now been shattered.

The archdemon was frustrated because none of his spells. .h.i.t. Angered, he cast a large AOE spell, Ice Nova. He no longer cared if his spell hit his allies. He wanted to see how that human dodged this one.

The archdemon was far enough to escape the range of Tetsuo's mana sense but not his vision. After transforming, his vision was nearly three-hundred-and-sixty-degrees. His eyes could see almost everything around him. Combined with his mana sense, he was almost impossible to be backstabbed.

He saw the archdemon casting a spell and knew at once it was a spell with many runes. He left the ma.s.s of demons around him and headed to the archdemon. The other demons might be confused when he disappeared, but the eternal-grade daemon and high demon sensed where he was headed and gave chase.

A huge mantis appeared in their path. This mantis also sported dragonfly wings like Tetsuo's. This mantis was Tetsuo's pet, Battle Mantis.

The battle mantis was a level 91 mythical insect. It had two long forearms that ended with sharp sickle-like blades. These sickle arms slashed at high speed. Tetsuo strengthened his pet by using Ultimate Beast and Demonize Pet. The battle mantis' green carapaces darkened and hardened. Thorns also appeared all over its body, especially its head, where a row of demonic horns sprouted.

When the eternal-grade daemon and high demon arrived, the battle mantis used Multi Power Slashes. It was a skill that created many slas.h.i.+ng lights, similar to the burst attack of Jack's sword art. The battle mantis might not be eternal grade, but its attack was formidable enough after the power boosts. Its slashes halted the two eternal grades, preventing them from chasing Tetsuo.

The daemon was enraged from getting stopped. It made a powerful cleave that conjured the image of a huge flaming axe. The battle mantis disappeared before the flaming axe hit. Its dragonfly wings gave him the same maneuverability as Tetsuo.

While his battle mantis kept his pursuer busy, Tetsuo came before the archdemon. He used Meteor Dash after summoning his pet. The meteor dash was a movement skill usable in the air. It was similar to the Wind Jet spell.

The archdemon was surprised to find his target in front of him. His spell was not yet completed. With the opponent already before him, he didn't have the luxury to continue casting. He had no chance but to change his spell to a magic s.h.i.+eld when Tetsuo's fist came punching.

Twisting winds and lights followed Tetsuo's fist. This was Drilling Punch. A skill with a high penetrative ability. The archdemon's magic s.h.i.+eld was shattered by the punch. Before the archdemon could react, Tetsuo split into many images and punched the archdemon from multiple directions.

Tetsuo's Multi-sided Strikes had blinding lights following his punches. These lights added light-element damage to his skill. It also stunned the archdemon.

Tetsuo pointed one hand to the sky. Following that act, a thin light pillar shot down from heaven and pierced the archdemon. This was a non-standard Technocraft skill, Satellite Shot.

The archdemon was slammed into the ground. The handgun in Tetsuo's left hand enlarged. It now fired constant rapid shots. This was a non-standard skill from the Gunner cla.s.s, Gatling Gun. The archdemon was unable to rise due to the rapid fire. His HP continued to decrease.

The other mythical-grade demons chased after Tetsuo. The battle mantis was unable to stop the tide. The eternal-grade daemon and high demon left the battle mantis and came at Tetsuo. Tets...o...b..ocked the axe from the daemon using one hand while his other hand parried the dagger from the high demon.

"Hehe. I have enough warm-up," Tetsuo said.

Several s.h.i.+ning metallic plates materialized around his body after he spoke. These metal plates slapped into different parts of his body. These plates interlocked with each other and formed a suit. By the time the process was completed, Tetsuo had become a humanoid insect cyborg. This was his special technocraft skill, Savage Techno Suit.

Tetsuo's dragonfly wings were originally thin transparent membranes. Now, they were solid metal plates, but they still beat at the same imperceptible speed. With these wings, Tetsuo disappeared just before the daemon and high demon landed their follow-up attacks.

Tetsuo dodged the two by shooting upward. On his cyborg's back were booster jets. Propulsion flames burst out of the afterburner, giving him incredible burst speed. His body shot back down at twice the speed as before. The daemon didn't have the time to register what was happening when Tetsuo slammed into him from above.

Tetsuo continued shooting down with his fist on the daemon. Right below was the archdemon who was just about to get back up, but Tetsuo aimed right at that archdemon. The daemon's large body crashed into the archdemon. The impact sent him back into the ground.

Before the daemon and archdemon could do anything, Tetsuo's chest flared brightly.

"Ultimate Core Fireeee…!!!"

A bright burst of energy erupted from his chest and washed over the two pinned in the ground. The burst of energy created a huge explosion. By the time the explosion receded, a huge crater had been formed.

Tetsuo didn't let up. He used Infinite Lightning Punches again. The daemon and archdemon were unable to get up because of the pressure from Tetsuo's punches. The other demons were rus.h.i.+ng to help. Tetsuo saw them approaching from his compound eyes. His battle mantis was unable to stop them all.

"Homing Missiles…!" He yelled as he used another non-standard Technocraft skill. Thirty small rockets materialized out of nowhere and flew at the incoming demons. These rockets could track their targets. If they missed, they flew back and chased the missed targets. Even the fast eternal-grade high demon with the dagger couldn't evade these rockets nonstop. The rockets exploded upon impact, dealing damage and causing knockback.

Tetsuo then used Gunner's Drone skill. His drone was shaped like a mechanical beetle. It flew by flapping its metallic wings. It was faster and more maneuverable than a normal drone. Its firing rate was also faster than a normal drone. It was like a drone equipped with a machine gun. It could also spit fire and throw concussive grenades. Together with the battle mantis, the beetle drone kept the demons from disrupting Tetsuo.

However, the demons were too many. The eternal-grade high demon with the dagger was also stronger than his two summons. She finally rushed past the battle mantis and the beetle drone and got close to Tetsuo.

Tetsuo was about to stop his punches and let the two demons below him go when he sensed incoming attacks. Numerous arrows made of light streaked through the sky and stabbed at the demons around him. The eternal-grade high demon used her dagger to block the light arrows. She was knocked back by the impacts.

A large golden beam then hit her, sending her far away.

A voice was heard from above. "That form and that loud battle style. Tetsuo, is that you?"

Tetsuo didn't look back. His compound eyes could see the things behind him. An enormous dragon with brilliant golden scales had descended to his position.

"Syndrillis? You are still alive in this era?" Tetsuo replied.
