Chapter 18 – H v L v C v I

The buzzing, laughing, and growling entered Tristan’s ears like sonic booms. His brain short-circuited for a moment. The first thing he did though, was to calm the waves in his chest.

A cryptic curve emerged on the corner of his lips.

He felt tensed and stimulated at the same time. Truth be told, he didn’t tell Adrian everything about his ability. It just… he didn’t trust Adrian that deep to tell his secrets.

“Hm. Isn’t he the one who hidden too deeply?” Thinking about Adrian who managed to create a plan just by listening to his previous experience, Tristan became gratified. He felt a little bit of meaning in his life.

Without his armor, he was just a cripple.

With armor, every injury or defect he had would be gone! He would be like any functioning normal person! And with added strength, speed, etc. to boot!

By tapping the ground, he could easily create or decrease a distance. It was just simple footwork but with enough training, it enabled him to survive until now!

Woosh! The Lunatic in front couldn’t react in time and was cut into two.

Unfortunately, the deformed insect zigzagged. With a swoop, its razors slashed at his armor producing metal clanking.

Tocho on the side fought with gusto. His arms flickered and bodies fell down from the sky.

However, the insects weren’t only in the sky. They were in the ground too. They burrowed deep before plunging their toxic pincers into their victim’s foot. However, it could be said that their attacks resembled trickles. Half-hearted and some of them dodged to the side. Apparently, Tocho’s aura intimidated these beasts.

The battle between Lunatics and insects seemed more intense. Tristan knitted his brows because this wasn’t what they wanted. But he kept waiting. Just a moment more.

Soon, a loud bang sounded. Tocho’s brain exploded. He took a step back and peeked at the small hole in the underground ceiling. Yet, this wasn’t the end as he heard the millions upon millions of buzzing sounds!

The sense of danger Tristan felt rose to the peak. But this made his smile underneath his helmet larger than ever!

Tocho’s voice cracked after seeing the agitated insects throwing themselves at him like moths to the fire! He threw his head to the back and guffawed that reverberated even above ground!
