Chapter 1286: Kill
With a single swing, the sword blade was enveloped in green crystal, trailing red and green particles like phantoms as it crashed heavily into the Usurper's chest, splitting it cleanly in two without the slightest resistance.
Yet the Usurper that had been struck turned hazy and blurred. After the sword light flashed past, it twisted for a moment and vanished completely before Xiao Ran's machine. Behind it, the Usurper reappeared in a streak of red light, gripping its greatsword as it stabbed directly at Xiao Ran's machine.
The blade pierced in just as unobstructed, as though it had struck empty air. The instant the Usurper's greatsword entered Xiao Ran's machine, the point of impact turned into countless light particles, spreading outward from the center of the machine before fading away like an illusion in front of the Usurper.
One machine possessed quantumization, while the other could create duplicates. They appeared evenly matched, and after one exchange, neither side had gained any advantage.
After its thrust missed, the Usurper flashed red and split into countless duplicates again, hiding its true body among them. The moment Xiao Ran's machine appeared, the countless duplicates charged forward with their double-edged swords raised. But duplicates were ultimately just duplicates—perhaps balls of energy, perhaps illusions existing in reality. To Xiao Ran, who had completely taken control of Hades Island, identifying the true body caused not the slightest confusion.
Countless duplicates rushed at Xiao Ran's machine from every direction. Its chest suddenly flared brightly, and an orb of energy appeared out of nowhere before it. After charging for less than a second, the energy orb transformed into countless beams of light that shot in every direction, accurately striking every duplicate the Usurper had created.
The unleashed beams pierced through the duplicates at tremendous speed.
