Chapter 269: Metallic Tsunami

"Bloed!"

"Mr. Bloed!"

Aya and Elwha cried out when they saw Bloed being punched away.

At the same time, their faces carried astonishment towards the fact that Liu Ying was the one that attacked him!

The change was too sudden for them to react. Before they could understand what was happening, Liu Ying was already charging towards Bloed to attack him again.

"Bloed!" Aya expression turned pale white. She hurriedly rushed to protect him, but she was not going to reach him in time.

But then, something unexpected happened.

When Liu Ying's punch was about to hit Bloed, he twisted his body aside and evaded it. Then, Leto appeared suddenly and took the shape of several chains that tried to entangle Liu Ying.

The demon did not change her blank expression. She stomped on the ground, creating a shockwave that blew Leto away and allowed her to escape from its bindings. However, Leto's interference gave Bloed enough time to distance himself from her.

Aya arrived at Bloed's side at that moment. "Miss Liu Ying, what are you doing!?" She shouted at the red-haired demon.

"Calm down," Bloed said to Aya while holding his abdomen with a hand. He then looked at the blank expression on his girlfriend's face and sighed. "It's useless to shout. She is being controlled."

Aya was taken aback. "Controlled? Then, she is not attacking us by her own will?"

Bloed nodded.

"I understand." With a nod, Aya looked at Liu Ying once more and readied herself to fight against her.

But the demon did not continue attacking them. Instead, she jumped back and stood protectively in from of the purple crystal.

Moreover, while the group was distracted by Liu Ying's sudden appearance, several more figures had appeared around the crystal, protecting it.

They were the elves and members of the church of the slaughter that had been trapped in their memories when the soul world formed.

And just like Liu Ying, their expressions were blank, like lifeless dolls.

"This is bad…" Bloed furrowed his brows. The situation had just turned from bad to worse.

With so many elites protecting the crystal, the difficulty of reaching it increased to the next level!

However, what made Bloed grim was the fact that Liu Ying was being controlled as well. In other words, he would have to face her if he wanted to reach the crystal.

But there was no way he could use [Molecular Disintegration] on her. In other words, he had to find a way to restrain her without killing her.

At that moment, Elwha's panicking voice came from behind them.

"Mr. Bloed! I can't stop the nightmares anymore! If you don't find a way to reach the core soon, we will die here!"

Bloed frowned. Beside him, Aya gripped her daggers tightly, getting ready for a desperate struggle.

Catching all of that in his gaze, Bloed took a deep breath.

"Miss Elwha, if I manage to restrain all the enemies for fifteen seconds, can you destroy the soul world?"

"Eh? I-I think I can… No, I can. I promise to you!"

"Good." Bloed nodded. "Aya. Protect Elwha in case I can't stop all the enemies. Also, after this, I left Liu Ying's safety and my safety in your hands."

Aya was confused. But when she saw Bloed's serious expression, she nodded.

"Don't worry. I'll protect you with my life."

"I trust you." Looking towards Liu Ying and the purple crystal behind her, Bloed put on a confident smile.

Then, his bright blue eyes flashed with a trace of electricity.

"Activate, [Overdrive]." He spoke.

As soon as that word left his mouth, Bloed felt the world slowing around him.

For an instant, his mind became faster, and his thought became smoother. Even his ability to control [Molecular Disintegration] became much stronger.

With this kind of power, Bloed was confident he could destroy the crystal before long.

However, Bloed knew he did not have enough time.

[Overdrive]. An ability derivated from [Enhanced Brain Capability], able to heighten Bloed's mental capacity several times over for a brief period of time, and in exchange, he would become powerless during three days after that.

Normally, Bloed would use it to force his calculation zone to activate [Molecular Disintegration]. But this time, he could not do that. He could not kill Liu Ying.

Thus, he decided to try an idea he just had.

"Materialize!"

With a thought, tens of metallic wolves materialized around him. Each metallic wolf then turned into metallic sand that fused with each other, creating a giant whirlpool of metallic sand that seemed to extend without an end.

Using [Overdrive], Bloed forced himself to increase the number of thought-controlled machines he could control at once. Then, using it together with the ability to materialize his thoughts in this world, Bloed created this giant whirlpool.

And once the whirlpool took shape, Bloed gave it an order.

"Fall."

And the whirlpool descended.

Like a tsunami, the metallic sand swept away everything in its path. Neither the nightmares nor the people being controlled by the purple crystal were unable to resist it!

In an instant, they were swallowed by the wave of metallic sand, and their movements were completely restrained, leaving the purple crystal defenseless for the first time since the battle started.

"Hurry up! I can't keep it for long!" Bloed bellowed out, waking up the stunned Aya and Elwha who hurriedly rushed towards the crystal.

Seeing that, the crystal entered in a panic. It flusteredly tried to materialize more creatures to defend itself, but they were quickly swallowed by Bloed's metallic sand or killed by Aya.

Finally, Elwha reached in front of the crystal.

"You are mine!" Shouting, Elwha released her mana and soul power and extended her hand towards the purple crystal.

But when she was about to touch it, the crystal shook.

And...

*OOOOOOooooooOOOOOO!!!*

A deafening cry filled the white space.

One instant later, a wave of psychic energy exploded from the crystal, blowing Elwha away!

"No!" Elwha paled. She gathered all the mana in her body and tried to resist the wave of psychic energy, but she was not strong enough!

She could only watch as the opportunity Bloed and Aya got for her vanished in front of her eyes.

But at that moment, she felt someone grabbing her waist.

"Not yet!" With a roar, Bloed forced his calculation zone beyond his limit, activating [Molecular Disintegration] once more and erasing the psychic energy coming from the crystal.

A sharp pain attacked his head, and his vision turned red. Bloed felt as though his body wanted to collapse.

But even so, he continued advancing towards the purple crystal step after step with Elwha in his hands.

And finally, he and the elf princess reached in front of the crystal.

Elwha extended her hand once more.

"Stop!"

And her hand touched the crystal.

Everything stopped at that moment, as though time would have ceased running.

But then-

*Boom!!!*

A powerful explosion shook the entire island, and cracks started to appear in the white world.

The next instant, the entire world shattered.

Bloed watched that scene as he felt something warm flowing into his mind. The pain of overusing [Overdrive] strangely disappeared, being replaced by a comfortable feeling.

At the same time, he felt his mind being connected to something.

Then, his vision turned hazy.

And his consciousness disappeared.
