Chapter 210: Battle Tower



210 Battle Tower

After activating the Array, Alex finally came back to a familiar green scenery. He was inside this forest once again. This time, he was here with Sherry alone. Alex looked at Sherry. The insane idea they came up in their first time. Alex thought the perfect time to unleash it was now. Alex didn\'t mind to use his fire at this time. Since now, he felt a bit dissatisfied with monsters below 9-Star Master stage. That\'s why to reserve their stamina and energy to fight the later monsters. Alex decided to kill them with his and Sherry\'s fire.

"Sherry, put the forest in fire. Since we didn\'t have any trouble with the fire, we can kill the monsters easily with that. We can also conserve our stamina for that."

"Wuu!" Sherry seems very eager to do it. After Alex\'s rejected the idea that time, she was dying to do it. She immediately summoned her twenty firebirds and released them. Alex helped her in doing that.

From an explosion, turn to a burning tree, then it slowly spread. Of course, Alex flew around with his \'Omnislash\'. He was going to obliterate the monsters perfectly. He won\'t leave a single monster alive. Since the monsters were still a low stage monster, he can easily kill them with a single sword from Omnislash. Fortunately, it was only an illusion. If the trees were real, he would make too much pollution.

...

After several hours, they finally met the wave with two 9-Star monsters. Alex and Sherry had waited for this for too long. Alex decided to put out the fire. Sherry did the same. They wanted to test their might with 9-Star Master stage monster in a full fight.

Back in the mission of Evil Cult, Alex and Sherry had fought with 9-Star and 10-Star Martial Master or even a 1-Star Grandmaster. Even though the ambush was a failure. They were not prepared for a fight. That\'s why Alex and Sherry can kill them pretty quickly. Then, they also killed a few mid rank Grandmaster. At that time, they were pursuing Putri and Alex in a rush. Because of that speed, they need to give up some level of defense for their speed to chase them. Thus, Sherry was able to kill them pretty easily.

This time, the monsters had prepared for their battle. So, Alex and Sherry expected some real fight in here. Alex and Sherry chose their respective opponent. Alex chose a 9-Star Master Stage Black Beetle. From the look of it, its defense was pretty high. Sherry chose a 9-Star Master Stage Dark Dream Butterfly as her opponent.

Alex made the first move. He wanted to test his power without his Sword Intent, he was wondering if his Sword Art alone can defeat this hard defense monster. It was a 5 meter dark bettle, and its wide alone was twice its height. And its length was even more than twenty meters.

"Pentagram Slash"

Alex used his Pentagram Slash as the first move. Five streams of light flew toward the beetle at a very fast speed. To his surprise, the beetle didn\'t dodge this attack. It stood there without moving. And finally, when the light crashed to the giant beetle\'s body. It didn\'t even manage to put a scratch on it. Alex was surprised. Although the Pentagram Slash didn\'t have that much power in attack as its speed was its strongest strength. But, it was still an Earth Tier Sword Art. To think it didn\'t even manage to put a scratch on it. This giant beetle had an extraordinary defense.

After that attack, the beetle was trying to pinch Alex with its giant mouth. Although he activated his Spirit Eyes, the giant beetle movement was pretty slow. Even without his Spirit Eyes, he would have all the time he needs to dodge this. Judging from its movement, The beetle seemed to sacrifice its speed for defense. Alex leaped to the air as his sword was glowing. He swung his sword down as a Sword Wave flew from his sword toward the giant beetle.

"Sanguin Sword Art. Fifteenth Slash"

The Sword Wave was flying to the beetle back, Alex didn\'t know where to hit this beetle. This time, the sword wave still didn\'t manage to make a scratch. But yeah, without his Sword Intent or his fire Infused in it. To make a wound on this extraordinary hard beetle...well, he might be able to do it, if he continuously attacked the same spot over and over again.

Alex thought the beetle would fly. Even though the beetle didn\'t have a wing, with its Spiritual Energy alone, the beetle should be able to fly.

It was the beetle provocation, Alex can\'t even put a dent even the beetle didn\'t move. Alex summoned ten swords above him. It was his \'Omnislash\'. The swords flew toward the same spot as Alex\'s Sanguin Sword Art. Finally, two of his swords managed to pierce the beetle\'s hard carapace. But it was only a very shallow one.

Alex pondered. It seems, the Sword Intent was really a foundation in his sword.

Alex had checked all he needs to check. Then he switched his sword with his spear. He had mastered two Spear Arts these past few months, \'Silver Raven\' and \'Bear Sovereign\'. But he hadn\'t found a chance to use it. So, training in here might be useful for him. Each wave of the monster came every three hours. After killing the rest of the monsters and leaving only two 9-Star Master stage monster. There wouldn\'t be any nuisance if he used this beetle as his practice partner since Sherry blocked the other monster.

Alex also considered the beetle\'s movement. Since the beetle was slow. It was practically the same as a practice dummy. Only a hard practice dummy that can\'t be destroyed easily, which was perfect as a target. Considering all of those aspects, Alex decided to use his spear. They were in illusion, so there won\'t be anyone able to see him, using a spear.

A spear appeared on his hand, the spear had a white metallic handle, and the spear blade had half the length of his sword, which around 30 centimeters. This was his usual spear. Alex released his Spear Intent. Alex ducked down a bit as he clenched his spear. After noticing Alex\'s spear intent. The beetle felt something wrong. The beetle felt dread. It tried to pinch Alex to death with its mouth, but suddenly, Alex disappeared.

"Boom"

Suddenly a loud voice was heard, and the beetle suddenly lost its balance. Not long after, the beetle had finally noticed that it lost one of its feet. Alex suddenly appeared fifty meters away from the beetle. He finally realized how powerful the move he used just now.

Alex used his \'Silver Raven\' which supposed to be an extremely offensive Spear Art. It was using his own strength and momentum to add the power in his thrust. He tried using his \'Flash Step\' to help on the momentum, and the effect was marvelous. He also felt that even though this thrusting was powerful. If he continued this movement for a while in an experienced opponent. His opponent would be able to grasp his movement sooner or later.

Alex was planning to use this Silver Raven with his \'Fleeting Step\' which should be unpredictable. He wanted to use it in a real fight to see if that was the case. But for this beetle who had a slow speed. He can only test its power, and he was satisfied with the power. Then he changed his Spear Art. This time he used his other spear art, Bear Sovereign.

Bear Sovereign was partially offensive and defensive type Spear Art. Alex came closer to the beetle\'s leg. Spiritual Energy spike from his spear as the spear\'s sharpness suddenly increased to an unusual extent. Alex tried to cut the beetle\'s leg with its sharpness. Ultimately, it managed to cut the leg. Although he used his \'Immovable Step\' to raise his strength, so he was able to cut the leg. The sharpness alone was worth it. Alex can also make the spear duller as it would be like using a stick. He can use it to pin his enemy down.

This spear art also taught him how to continually change his center of gravity when engaging in close combat. It was useful because the opponent would not be able to narrow down their attack. It was the defensive engagement that can turn the defensive to the offensive.

Losing half of its legs, the giant beetle can\'t stand up. Finally, by using its Spiritual Energy, it managed to float in the air. But because of its enormous body, it can only float two meters above the ground. Alex leaped to the top of the beetle. Spear intent started covering his spear as he threw the spear toward the beetle\'s small wound that Alex made by using his swords.

"Spear Throwing Art. Power Throwing"

Whether it was because of the crack on the hard carapace or because of his powerful Spear Intent. After crashing toward the carapace. It destroyed that black carapace. Then beetle fell to the ground and made a crater on the ground like the one on his back.

It screamed out of pain. He didn\'t stop there. As he thrust his spear toward the beetle\'s head. He used the air as his footing, obviously using his \'Sky Step\'. He was like an arrow crashing down to the ground. The spear planted on the beetle\'s head, thus killing it.

Alex saw Sherry had finished her opponent too. Looking at the dead butterfly with half of its wing had been burned. He can expect what happened to the butterfly. Unlike the giant beetle, the butterfly can freely fly its body in the air. The fight must be a dog fight in the air. Sherry must surround her with her fire to stop the butterfly from flying away. Then, because of her overbearing fire. It was burned to death.

Alex and Sherry rest for a while before the next wave came. This time, most of the monsters were in 8-Star or 9-Star Master Stage monster with two 10-Star Master Stage monsters as the bosses. The two bosses were a blue wolf and a white fox. Because Sherry felt their character was overlapped. She chose the fox as her opponent while Alex got the wolf as his opponent.

Alex hadn\'t changed his weapon. He was still using his spear. He used his Silver Raven to charge to the wolf like an arrow. But the wolf was able to react. It dodged Alex charged completely. Alex\'s speed while using his \'Flash Step\' was surprisingly equal to the wolf\'s fastest speed. The fight became like a game of tag. Alex continuously chased the wolf for quite a while. He tried to attack it with several different approaches, but only one that managed to injure the wolf.

Although the wolf was quite big as its height alone was two meters high, it didn\'t lose its balance or speed. It can move freely inside this forest. Alex was a bit annoyed by this situation.

"Omnislash"

Ten swords appeared beside him as they flew to the wolf. Their purpose was to surround the wolf so Alex can hit it. If others what Alex did just now, they would be shocked to the core. Alex can use his Sword Art with his spear, not his sword. In fact, Alex practiced hard for this in his six months of consolidation. After receiving that golden lightning, he can use his Spear Intent, and to his surprise, his Spear Intent can be used on his sword. He was also able to use his Spear Art with his sword. That\'s why he thought it was possible to do the opposite. After practicing it continuously, he finally was able to use it. He was still unable to condense a spear domain or a sword domain, though. He felt some kind of barrier that prevented him from doing so.

The swords were covered by Alex\'s Spear Intent. The wolf was avoiding the swords one by one. If one of the swords just hit the wolf, it would injure the wolf heavily. After pinning the wolf down for one minute, Alex finally saw the chance.

"Flash Step"

He used his fastest speed as he used his Silver Raven. He flew in the wolf direction like an arrow. Alex blew the wolf\'s entire stomach, and the wolf finally fell down lifelessly. Alex then turned to Sherry. He saw her sitting on top of a black fox. Alex was surprised as he remembered that the fox was originally white...Sherry was ruthless.
