Ex-Machina in Dimensional Travel

However, no matter how surprised they are, it will not change the original purpose of the "Xuers". Since Karna has made a choice, such a powerful fighting force must be fully utilized and left for the end.

Facing Karna, who had established a new master-slave relationship with No. 4 and thus gained unlimited "energy", the fate of Achilles, who had already been beaten half-crippled, was already determined.

As I thought about this, the hole leading to the ground was right in front of me.

whoosh-

A stream of golden light flew out from the deep and dark cave entrance and flew straight into the sky.

Only when he flew out of the highest point of the woods did Xuer stop abruptly and hover in mid-air.

The Red Archer had already chosen to evacuate after Karna's arrival. It seemed that she had discovered Karna's rebellion, and after confirming that victory was hopeless, she chose the most sensible retreat.

He had just been persevering in helping Achilles fight against himself, but now he gave up on Achilles without hesitation.

Well, Xuel also affirmed the green archer's judgment of the battlefield situation.

But no matter how certain he was, he would certainly not let the other party really run away.

"Chasing the mission target... Target distance◇3460m"

“…4300m.”

“…5164m.”

"..."

He ran fast and in time, but he couldn't escape from Shuul's "eyes".

Confirm the direction and turn on full propulsion power.

pound!!

With a violent sonic boom, Xuer's figure suddenly turned into a golden meteor and rushed into the golden portal that had just appeared in front of him.

……

Atalanta's figure quickly shuttled through the dense forest. At this moment, she was retreating rapidly along the route she came from, with cold sweat on her forehead.

After hearing Karna's rebellious speech, they immediately began to retreat.

"Damn it, that guy, how could he betray me!"

While running, Atalanta strongly condemned Karna's rebellion, but the current situation did not allow her to think too much.

After all, Karna's rebellion also means that he will have to fight the magician of unknown strength alone.

The reason she had fought alongside Achilles was because there was still hope of victory.

And now, in this situation where defeat is inevitable, only a fool would rush forward.

Whizzing……

The green figure kept shuttling between the woods under the protection of the shadows. She exerted all her strength in every step, intending to evacuate this dangerous place as soon as possible.

But now, no matter how far she ran, she still couldn't get rid of the gaze that came from nowhere. The extremely strong sense of voyeurism made her pressure more and more intense.

until……

A golden vortex appeared out of nowhere in the air in front of her, and she was flying in the air and had no time to change direction.

It’s going to crash in!

Atalanta only had time to protect her head with her arms, trying to reduce the damage she suffered from colliding with the "thing" that suddenly appeared.

But the good news is that the expected damage will not come.

Because this vortex has no entity, it is just a portal, and Atalanta doesn't have to worry about "bumping into it".

But Atalanta could no longer know this.

The golden flash that burst out from the vortex instantly hit her body and "took" her away from its original place in an instant.

The violent impact instantly struck Atalanta in the face, almost causing her to lose consciousness. However, the situation that followed made her feel that losing consciousness would be worse than this.

"Ugh!?"

Feeling the small hand pinching her neck, Atalanta looked at the childish face in front of her with horror. Her eyes followed the strange lines on the other's face until they met the cold and ruthless golden eyes.

The inorganic eyes emitted a light that she could not understand. Although she didn't know what it was, an indescribable feeling of disgust arose.

"How can you……"

crunch...

Before she could utter any words of astonishment, she was interrupted by the attack that followed. The increasingly tight feeling around her neck made Atalanta's face flush red.

The strong wind hit Atalanta's back, the whistling sonic boom was deafening, and the tightly bound neck made her brain numb.

Boom boom boom! ! !

“Ahem…!”

Several large trees crashed onto Atalanta's back, and the impact from both the front and the sides almost made her lose consciousness. Her neck, the only point of contact with Shul's body, was the part that suffered the greatest force from the "double-sided attack" after being hit countless times.

However, Shul's speed increased instead of decreasing. He carried Atalanta's body and rushed all the way, smashing countless large trees blocking the way while passing through the woods.

The hands, like steel pliers, tightly grasped Achilles' neck, leaving her no room for resistance.

A few seconds later, after finishing a three-thousand-meter-long "sprint", Xuel grabbed the delicate neck in his hand and smashed it straight to the ground below.

It was not until then that Atalanta finally escaped from Shul's "claws", but she was barely able to maintain consciousness and was unable to make preparations for landing in the hazy state.

So, when she just regained consciousness, she was hit hard again from below the next second.

Boom! ! !

Dust flew everywhere, and Atalanta's body slammed into the ground, instantly cracking the ground below.

The stones and dust that were thrown into the air by the impact flew into the air for a short time before falling like rain, hitting her body all over, suddenly awakening her almost silent consciousness.

"Cough cough cough...!!!"

A trace of blood vomited out of her mouth and scattered on the soil beside her.

She had considered the situation of facing the enemy alone, and had made various contingency plans to deal with the attack, but she never thought that the enemy also had the ability to transfer space.

That's why she didn't have time to react to the enemy's sudden attack.

Fortunately, Shuul did not pursue the victory and did not use weapons to attack directly. He simply relied on the environment to cause damage. Therefore, relying on the servant's strong physique, Atalanta was able to stand up again after only a dozen seconds.

After quickly checking her physical condition, she was relieved to find that she was still able to move. Although her condition was not too bad after this sudden attack, it was obvious that the option of evacuation had disappeared.

Even Achilles would be defeated in a head-on battle, let alone Atalanta. But surrendering is impossible, so her only choice now is to fight.

"Heh...what an unreasonable ability."

Shuul slowly landed on the ground and looked at Atalanta calmly.

Atalanta was no longer surprised by Shuel's deliberate loss of time, after all, he often did the same to Achilles.

"call……"

She took a deep breath, as if to calm her agitated mind, but no matter how she tried, she couldn't calm the rage in her heart.

Everything the enemy was doing was so irrational, how could she stay calm?!

She didn't know the other party's purpose, and she didn't see Shuul copying the Meteor Gun. So when she didn't know the enemy's purpose, Atalanta had only one way to break the deadlock in her mind.

Now, that's the only one I can use.

Atalanta's heart sank. Faced with the imminent dilemma, that thing was probably the only option.

A burst of purple magic power suddenly gathered in her left hand, and her yellow-green hair was blown behind her by the strong wind that followed.

Shuul calmly waited for her next move, his cold eyes showing no emotion, but Atalanta still felt boundless anger.

The consequences of using that item are no longer worth mentioning when facing a powerful enemy.

"cough!"

Then, Atalanta raised the object wrapped in purple magic above her head, and then suddenly stabbed it into her chest.

Scarlet liquid splashed in front of her, and purple magic quickly enveloped her whole body. Atalanta's aura suddenly changed drastically.

But Xuer was like an outsider spectator, silently recording the entire process of a green hunter transforming into a terrifying monster.

……

Chapter 56: Wild Boar

"[Divine Punishment Boar/Agrius Metamorphose]!!!"

With a heart-wrenching roar, the purple magic completely enveloped Atalanta's body.

The ground beneath her feet suddenly cracked, and a huge amount of magic power swirled around Atalanta, destroying everything nearby.

The originally smooth yellow-green hair quickly "faded" into endless white under the envelopment of this magical power.

The originally emerald green clothing was instantly transformed into a more revealing animal skin suit, and a huge black wild boar head engraved with beautiful patterns was "embedded" on her right shoulder.

The exposed white skin, on the contrary, reveals the wildness of a wild beast.

In the golden eyes, endless anger and murderous intent floated out from the vertical pupils, all directed at the petite figure who was hiding behind the golden shield not far away, quietly "watching the show".

Her mouth was full of sharp teeth clenched together tightly. She didn't say a word, but the fangs that kept rubbing against each other seemed as if they would tear the target in front of them into pieces at any time.

A purple-black longbow suddenly appeared in the hands of the greatly changed Atalanta, and ominous black-purple magic power quickly condensed in her hands.

No arrows appeared, no warning.

"Die!!!"

Just a heart-wrenching roar, and a powerful momentum that intended to tear everything apart erupted.

A stream of purple light burst out from the longbow, leaving a long tail, and flew straight towards Xuul.

boom! !

Xuul removed her shield and quickly turned her head away. Two arrows, one in front and one behind, brushed past her hair and flew into the dense forest behind her, causing a violent explosion.

However, these two arrows were just a prelude. Shuul did not pay attention to the effects of the two attacks because Atalanta's next attack had already arrived.

Xuul quickly raised his left arm to block the kick towards his head. The powerful kinetic energy immediately poured into the arm, and a strong gust of wind was blew between the two, blowing away all the dust and gravel around.

At this moment, Atalanta, who had put one foot on Shule's left arm, bent back and put the black longbow in front of Shule's face.

Purple-black magic power quickly gathered and expanded on the longbow.

boom! !

A ball of energy larger than Xuer's head hit his face and exploded violently. The impact instantly widened the distance between the two.

Xuer covered his smoking face to steady his body which was blown away due to his light weight, leaving two shallow grooves on the ground beneath him.

At this moment, three purple energies came in front of him again, and this time, they went straight to his chest!

Bang! x3

However, all three energy arrows missed his target. Although his vision was blocked, Xuel still dodged the oncoming attack with ease as if he could "see".

They all "brushed past" the outline of Xuer's armor and flew into the shadows of the dense forest behind, causing another large explosion.

The fire from the explosion illuminated Xuer's back. At this moment, Xuer put down his hands that were covering his face, revealing the goggles that had been attached to his face at some point.

The dark face under the backlight and the pair of faintly glowing golden eyes revealed an indescribable weirdness.

The previous attack did not cause him any injury. It was precisely because he knew that he would not be injured that Xuer chose to take the blow with his body. However, the blow to his face did block the sensor's observation, but Xuer's vision was always synchronized with the "Eye of the Sky" in the sky, and he could see everything that was happening here.

To put it another way, Shul's "radar detection" is always working.

Even if Atalanta really had the ability to destroy his eyes, he would not be affected at all. Moreover, Shul was fully capable of repairing the damage on the spot.

Therefore, all attempts to block Xuer's "perception" were useless.

But judging from the state of the Archer in front of him, he probably just thought that attack would inflict the highest damage.

After all, Xuer's current appearance gives people the impression that only his face has no "armor", so relatively speaking, the damage absorption efficiency is the best.

To use the words of a certain game, it looks like the best part of the meat.

At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the depths of the dense forest behind, and the earth began to shake violently with this loud bang.

Behind Xuul, a pillar of fire shot up into the sky, instantly illuminating the entire forest, as well as Atalanta, who had a ferocious face in front of Xuul.

But both of them ignored the strange scene at the same time. The movement caused by the scene did not affect the two people present. At this moment, they only had each other in their eyes.
