Chapter 89: Chapter 88: Escape [3]

In this decisive battle, it's Lugh's first time serving as an Operator. Usually, the ones who would serve as one are normally at the backlines, but they didn't have any leeway to do so.

With his combined [Domain Detection] and [Terrain Detection], he's the most suitable to become one.

'It's hard. I admire the operators back there even more.'

When one becomes an operator, he had to make sure that the balance and momentum of the team don't die out. Just like what they did here.

When they broke through the encirclement, they used the arrowhead formation, with the 50 or so Demigods leading in the front. When there are some troublesome enemies, it's inevitable that some would separate for a while. It's the operator's job to get them back to the formation.

Now, he himself is the one who broke away from the formation. As to why?

'Damn it.'

[Space Swap-Temporary (LV10)]

-After self-destructing, it becomes possible to swap a part of space for another empty space. The swapped space can be designated, but it cannot be changed in real-time.

-This trait disappears once the mechanical body gets destroyed.

In the cyborg zerg, Lugh saw this troublesome trait. He wished that this is just a coincidence, but he knew that this isn't one. It's most likely the zerg's backup plan. If left alone, tons of Demigods might, no, will appear in his place, screwing them all over.

Since the others needed to be in that formation to maintain their current momentum, he's the one who left to deal with it.

'After killing this, it shouldn't be that long before they completely break through.'

Lugh readied himself to strike against it.

"Huh? You're gonna deal with me?"

He didn't reply as he focused his mind on executing the technique that he only learned recently. He felt its difficulty even more now that he's casting it himself; the difficulty is off the charts since he already started executing it ever since he saw that trait earlier.

'Xiao Song, Little Xue, utilize the [Battle Augmentation] module to the maximum.'

'Understood.'

'Alright!'

In every high-end Armors, there are two modules that are always with it. Even the most basic one has these modules. These are the [Spare Energy Box] module and the [Battle Augmentation] module.

[Spare Energy Box]

-A storage for additional energy. It can be extracted in one go without any severe repercussions.

-Current Rank: SS+

[Battle Augmentation]

-The module that allows the Artifact Spirit to assist the user in making extreme precision movements. The information that the Artifact Spirit receives can also be synced into the user.

Now that Lugh is receiving huge amounts of information, he can sense the surroundings more clearly. It's like a Wisdom-type trait, but slightly worse.

Though, their [Battle Augmentation] module doesn't fall short against them. With his  [Decisiveness], his thinking speed became even faster.

Now that he's an SSS Rank, it became possible for him to have a thousand thoughts with the help of everything at his disposal.

'Now.'

Lugh initiated the technique that he had been executing a while ago. His power of the runes from a while ago surged. He drew his <Blade of Extremity> and slashed it at the cyborg zerg. Unlike the <Sword of Destruction>, it is mediocre.

Nothing can be felt in it. It's like a sword slash of an F- Rank human.

"Hah? What's that?"

The cyborg zerg laughed out loud.

"Phew."

"Wea-"

The cyborg zerg disintegrated into dust. What came along is the notification prompt.

[8,000,000,000 EXP has been gained.]

[Killed a being B- Rank and above. Lucky Hit triggered. The talent roulette will be activated.]

[The talent roulette contains all the traits of the being killed.]

[Activate?]

'Fuck. The repercussions are so bad. Even though I killed an EX+ Demigod, the price is tremendous. Still.. I finally got to see the lucky draw prompt again.'

Lugh thought so as he extracted the additional energy that he stored beforehand. Ignoring the physical, mental, and spiritual exhaustion that he feels right now, he went back to the formation.

'Lugh, is that a technique that surpassed the God-Rank?!'

Right after he returned, he was questioned by Alina; her shock is evident from her voice. As for the rest, they're still weak to find out the truth behind it.

'Yes. It is a technique that surpassed the God-Rank.'

'Just what are you?'

Lugh thought for quite some time before replying.

'Just a lucky human.'

'Luck?'

Lugh had some idea about the ridiculousness of comprehending that technique as a Law Realm, but he didn't think that it'll be that ridiculous. When he comprehended this on a barren planet, it produced a large-scale projection that only a Mid-Rank Deity could control.

When it appeared, Lucia is visibly shocked. She tried to suppress it, but it spread out to an entire Star System even with her power. Thankfully, they chose a barren one near the Outer Area of the Alliance's territory.

Since he didn't choose to breakthrough on the frontlines, it wasn't leaked.

"Intensify the attacks! The barrier will disappear soon!"

Hearing that, they started using more of their own reserves. Of course, they still have some reservations.

"3,2,1.."

As the count reached 0, the barrier disappeared as if it wasn't there in the first place. Determined not to make the same mistake, Lugh grabbed Aria's hand and disappeared instantly. Before he left, he said one thing.

"RUN!"

"What the?!"

"Where did he go?"

"No, the more important thing is that we are now free!"

Laurent seemed visibly surprised by his decision, but he recovered right away. He began leading his own team to escape.

Meanwhile, the group didn't notice that there are 2 additional people who followed them in an incredible distance, enough for them to not be discovered.

"They succeeded! Commander!"

"Hold on tight."

"Comman-eh?!"

Keith got flustered after he got princess carried by the Commander. Furthermore, they moved in an extreme speed to cross the gap that the group had created.

If they weren't fast enough, zergs would come and fill the gap, killing them for good.

"Hah. They escaped. It's a huge failure this time. Thinking about the repercussions that it might cause, it's enough for me to have a stomach ache. Sigh.."

The leading demigod zerg, Aiden, sighed. This time, he didn't become angry but just proceeded to create the report that might save him from those.

"I got something more important anyways."

He smiled as he proceeded to organize the information that he was about to submit to the higher-ups, titled: Protagonist Sighting No. 23.
