Chapter 1006 Cap 1004: Activating Combat Mode
Pov Nicole:
When I entered the gate that the Fairy of the Space Element opened, I immediately noticed the variation in the energy of the space, I also noticed the change in the reading of the environment.
"A mountain, silence, elemental energy of the environment in disarray." (I)
I quickly and superficially assessed the area around me to formulate an effective plan of action.
When I realized that I was in an apparently safe place with a low probability of being attacked for the next few minutes at least, I knew that I would have time to prepare myself.
"My Father is not present to assist me with his Lesser Familiars or to give me a second point of view, nor are allies nearby as far as I can gather." (I)
I couldn\'t rule out the possibility of meeting other people inside this place, but I also couldn\'t rule out the possibility of being totally alone, in the end, none of that mattered, all I wanted was not to be disturbed while I was here.
"The ability to test combat configurations and various weapon types in a controlled environment where I\'m not taking unnecessary risks." (I)
"I hope these Creatures of the Abyss are as their characteristics have been described." (I)
I rethought the initial plan when I ran into a problem, so I spread my wings normally kept inside my body to fly higher.
"The space in here is much larger than expected, wasting energy without knowing enough information would be foolish." (I)
I stay high, but this time I focus my attention solely on my senses, pushing them to their limits as I gather information from my surroundings.
That\'s how in a short time I found something, I saw a tree sway in a different way from the rest and I went there, then I found a strange creature.
I spent the next 10 or 15 minutes testing various approaches on this single specimen as I needed to confirm the information I\'d gained so far before getting into it.
After almost 20 minutes I had collected enough information, thanks to which I confirmed everything that was informed to us at the same time that I discovered the physical limits of such fascinating creatures.
Killing them isn\'t too difficult using the simple approach of using Auras, something I haven\'t fully mastered, but I\'m still able to use in combats like this.
I tested various types of elements with my Aura strengthening and without my Aura\'s intervention, with this I also confirmed the limits of its regeneration, its ability to break restrictions, and immunity to abnormal elements such as poison, curse and I suppose diseases as well where can I see.
The regeneration was completely abnormal, even for me who see Vampires like my family, plus the way their body falls apart was strange, but what intrigued me the most was detecting death energy being attracted to these Creatures of the Abyss.
I don\'t know enough about this energy to continue the analysis of what I\'ve discovered so far, so I file this information away along with many pure ones for later research.
"Their regeneration is higher than I thought before, but their adaptability is wonderful." (I)
"They are able to adapt so drastically that they are able to grow new limbs, change the shape and function of a body part, they can even acquire things like eyes, teeth and many other things if that\'s correct." (I)
The countless amounts of information I can glean from any and all tests I want to take, this place is heaven for me to take my tests.
"With the latter\'s Aura analysis, I was able to modify a simple area research spell." (I)
"< Aura Research >" (I)
A wave of energy spreads out in all directions and with the specifications of the Aura I was able to find hundreds of these Creatures of the Abyss around me at different distances, the closest one should arrive within a few more minutes.
The best thing for me is knowing that everyone my magic has reached is coming my way, while I\'ll have plenty of opportunities to take my tests one after the other.
"< Interface N activating Phase 3 >" (I)
"< Combat Mode: Armor Activation >" (I)
"< Starting Information Gathering >" (I)
My body is covered with an armor of liquid metal that penetrates the pores of my skin, an armor made of a unique metallic alloy that I was only able to create because it became my blood thanks to my Father.
With the Battledo activating, my wings turned metallic red as the feathers turned into crystals before several of them scattered to various places in the surroundings expanding the range of my Aura and senses.
"Find 581 targets, 197 already have major physical changes." (I)
I started collecting information from the terrain, from the Creatures of the Abyss coming towards me, and the time of arrival of each one to me, and I started simulating different battle scenarios all at the same time.
The third phase of my interface is called Battle Mode, this allows me to temporarily disable various things in my body that are unnecessary during combat while also redirecting the energies within my body in preparation for battle.
"< Combat Mode: Activation of a
Weapons >" (I)
"< Battle Mode: Core Magic Activation >" (I)
I keep activating all the weapons in my body, my arms open as a magic cannon forms on my right arm while my left arm splits into 4 thin arms creating countless magic circles floating around me.
My wings fold upwards, connecting as they form an image of a circle on my back, each crystal feather on my wings filling with the power of an element becoming a temporary store of energy that allows me to activate multiple spells at once.
"Locking target, number of primary targets selected 18." (I)
"Beginning elimination." (I)
I make my Aura travel all over my body filling each of my feathers and weapons.
Soon 18 Creatures of the Abyss come out of the forest flying towards me, I turn my eyes towards these impressive creatures without stopping to move my hands.
"< Reinforced Lightning Spears > ×18" (I)
"< Space Cannon >" (I)
The moment my eyes landed on the 18 targets I had the same number of my feathers filled with the thunder element going to the center of 18 spells floating around me along with many others, these 18 spells move to the direction my eyes point creating extremely fast thunder spears enhanced with my Aura.
At the same time I turned my cannon arm to my back where one of these Creatures tried to jump at me, this one unlike the 18 that acquired wings flying towards me, the one I didn\'t even bother looking at had an incredible height but was slow.
My 18 spears hit the enemies\' heads penetrating their bodies to the inside of the chest, that while an electrical discharge wreaks havoc inside their bodies, it probably would have worked to use the strong electrical discharge to destroy the cores still inside their bodies.
As the 18 fell back to the ground, a strong sound happens behind me, when I turn around the space in front of me is rippled as a body in pieces has half of its body disappeared as a trail of destruction continues after this Creature of the Abyss destroying the trees next to the land.
"I need to adjust the Cannon\'s energy output more, this seems to be the only way to control the power of the attack." (I)
"The element of thunder has proven to be very effective, let\'s continue." (I)
I continued fighting at the same time that the Creatures of the Abyss were appearing, thus preventing the enemies from joining, it seems that I was having an easy victory, but the truth is that after more than 2 hours of combat, I had to expend all my energy, including the energy reserves I hold in the cores within my body.
As I reviewed all the information collected inside my head, I was pleasantly surprised by the many things I saw from these Creatures of the Abyss.
"< Battle Mode: Mechanic\'s Dragon >" (I)
As I descended from the sky deactivating the magic circles and turning my 2 arms back to normal then my Armor rippled on my body as it flowed down my wings as the Crystal Feathers turned into blades as my wings left the formation of a circle on my back.
With no time to finish getting ready, I use these wings to slash two Creatures of the Abyss.
After finishing that one I continued with the transformation of my hands into metal claws, in addition, my own vision changes to focus more on visual details as I stop thinking about magic.
I try to use the Martial Art I created after compiling everything I have about the Martial Arts I\'ve observed so far, unfortunately, it doesn\'t seem to be working as I wish.
It only took 20 minutes for my body to become disfigured from the many blows I suffered, but at the moment of the final blow, a green light appeared, hugging my body as it pulled me out.
When I realize I\'m floating above our temporary residence with everyone back, some have smiles on their faces, but there are also those with unhappy faces.
