Without Alona, ​​I can only use the airdrop system.

Without the teacher's protection of this space, the aftershocks alone would have caused significant damage to nearby buildings due to the vibrations and wind pressure.

At the same time, braving the aftershocks, the teacher unleashed several more crimson blades at Exodia!

Because of its speed, Exodia couldn't react in time and was cut in half by the crimson blade.

Doesn't he have any means of defense?

The teacher hadn't expected that before the fight even really started, he would kill Exodia.

Before the teacher could even ask a question, Exodia's broken body began to heal itself again!

Then, he adjusted his posture and charged towards the teacher!

"I knew it wouldn't be that simple." The teacher, in his avatar Haranduhan, emitted a crimson light from the center of his helmet. Using the speed advantage of his avatar, he charged towards Exodia at an even faster speed, followed by a series of smooth slashes, and arrived behind Exodia.

Exodia was unable to withstand his teacher's slash, and his body was once again split into pieces. But just as he was about to fall, a golden light flashed out and reconnected Exodia's body, restoring him to his original state.

"Is this guy unkillable?!" The teacher was utterly astonished.

To his surprise, Exodia turned around and charged at his teacher again much faster than before!

"Is he Hercules from Fate/stay night? He gets stronger after dying once!?" The teacher was embarrassed, but this time he didn't rush to kill him. Instead, he fought Exodia while thinking of a countermeasure.

However, Exodia's power was considerable, and the teacher didn't have much time left.

"If simply severing his body isn't enough to kill him, what would happen if we restricted his body's regeneration?"

Although there are risks involved, the teacher believes that as long as the attack is large enough, it will prevent him from resurrecting!

Thinking of this, the teacher's Haranduhan avatar burst forth with a strong crimson light, and the power it emitted repelled Exodia!

Taking advantage of the moment before Exodia could adjust his stance, the teacher stained his twin swords with crimson and unleashed a frenzied barrage of rapid slashes at Exodia!

During the slash, the pieces of Exodia that had been chopped into pieces began to emit golden light. The parts that the teacher had not paid attention to were regenerating, but it could not make up for the fact that he had been cut to pieces by the teacher.

"enough!"

After seeing Exodia cut into pieces, the teacher retreated.

He raised one of the knives, and instantly, a huge crimson energy object fell from the sky, slamming heavily onto the fragments of Exodia that were recovering!

"boom--!"

As the dust settled, most of Exodia's body was completely destroyed, with only a few scattered fragments still floating in the air.

Suddenly, some of the residue began to glow!

Immediately afterwards, these glowing remnants were imprisoned by crimson energy cubes and their expansion was severely suppressed!

"I never thought that even the remaining residue could be restored... This is too abnormal..." the teacher exclaimed while suppressing the remaining glowing residue.

After all, given the Dark Archmage's ability to resurrect infinitely and even grow stronger, it is not suited for a protracted war. The longer the battle goes on, the more disadvantageous it will be for the teacher.

Therefore, the right thing to do is to blast it to ashes as soon as possible and prevent its physical body from regenerating.

However, the Dark Archmage's tenacity exceeded his expectations; it took the teacher nearly several tens of minutes just to completely suppress him.

If only we had the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception that the professor mentioned.

That's what the teacher thought.

However, according to the doctor, there is nothing similar in Terra in the entire Arknights game. If you want it, you can only find it by yourself using Terra weapons.

The fragments of the Dark Archmage, now completely suppressed, finally lost their ability to resist. The golden light emitted by the fragments gradually faded, and then they turned into dust and dissipated.

"call........"

After disarming Terra, the teacher wiped the sweat from his brow and took out the Shiting Box to search for Hoshino's location.

The red dot indicating the location of Hoshino is already within the Abydos Desert and has met the red dot indicating the location of Suoh.

As for Shirako and the other three, after arriving at a safe location, they used Ayane's Swift to travel in a straight line and would soon reach Hoshino's location.

Just then, the teacher's phone rang; the caller was Hina.

"Teacher, is it true that Abydos was involved with Ghena's train cannon?"

"Yes," the teacher nodded, and asked, "Who do you plan to send?"

“I went personally. The messenger of the cross god in Gehenna has been repelled and some troubles have been dealt with. The rest can be left to Makoto Ayako and the others.”

"Okay, I'll send you the location right away."

After saying that, the teacher sent Hina his location and changed his Terra weapon.

"Margaret Nearl, Priscilla, armed."

The teacher's entire body erupted with intense golden light, and he flew towards Hoshino's location at the speed of light!

Meanwhile, at Hoshino's location.

This place is located in the Abydos Desert, connected by railway tracks, and also features ancient Egyptian-style architecture. On the tracks next to where Hoshino and Suoh were fighting, there is a huge locomotive with a thick cannon barrel in the center.

Needless to say, this is the train gun mentioned earlier.

At this moment, Hoshino knocks the injured Suoh to the ground.

"Hmm... Am I still too weak...?"

Suoh closed his eyes unwillingly, unable to rise again.

"Then," Hoshino said, seeing that Suoh was unable to move, he focused his attention on the train cannon, "destroy the train cannon."

After saying that, Hoshino took out several C4 explosives that he had prepared beforehand, intending to put them on the train gun and blow them up.

At that moment, Hoshino heard the sound of a helicopter.

Hoshino looked up and saw that Ayane was controlling the Swift, which was slowly descending.

"Everyone?"

Hoshino stopped in her tracks.

"Hoshino-senpai, you ran too fast!"

The four members of the countermeasures committee got off the helicopter and came to Hoshino.

At the same time, they also saw the train cannon ahead.

"Hehe, sorry." Hoshino scratched his head sheepishly, then looked at Suoh who had fallen to the ground. "I just didn't expect Highland Academy to have designs on the train cannon, even though they said they were here to help us."

"So, the mastermind behind this is Highland Academy?!" Ayane exclaimed in realization. "And their goal is this train cannon?!"

"Looking at its size, no wonder so many forces want to seize it," Qinxiang exclaimed.

Shirako then used ropes to tie up Suoh, restricting her movements.

"We'll take her to Highland Academy and get to the bottom of this then," Bai Zi said expressionlessly. "We might be able to get a fair amount of compensation."

"I wonder if the teacher can deal with that monster..." Nomiya looked worried.

"That monster?" Hoshino asked, puzzled.

“That’s right,” Bai Zi explained. “It consists of five cards on the ground.”

"..." Hoshino's gaze swept over the unconscious Suoh, and then he thought of the monster they had encountered on their journey.

This further confirms the conclusion that Highland Academy is the mastermind—at least on the surface.

I don't know who Highland Academy partnered with, but they were able to summon monsters that are completely unlike anything from the world of Giwotos.

For some unknown reason, Hoshino felt an extremely ominous premonition rising within him.
