Chapter 1780 King Of Bearling -Part 18
"Here we go!" Cloudie started an ascent as they reached close to Bearling Palace. His manoeuvre had also forced the Grey Bears to stop bombarding the area for a moment in case there were accidental misfiring which might hit the helicarrier.
When the vertical climb happened, the drones started to fall out of the cargo bay and even if they did not, they were being controlled by the System to get out of it. From afar, it looked as if someone was sprinkling salt onto the city, but in actual fact, the one that got salted was the Bearling Military Defence Force.
Multiple explosions happened at the same time and no one even knew how to react it. Those explosions subsequently triggered secondary explosions from the reserved ammunition stock that was lying around as part of the defence strategy to fill up their ammunition quickly. Without the Bearling City's Air Force to stop the helicarrier and the explosive drones, the entire frontline which was lined with veteran soldiers and mechanoids that were supposed to make up the bulk of the defence against Jin had been decimated.
When the Royal Guards Leader Steele saw the scene, he could not believe his eyes. He was not expecting Jin to pull out such extensive firepower against his frontline just like that. He thought that he might bring some planes with him as well as a few bunker buster bombs or maybe anti personnel bombs.
So, Steele had made sure that the frontline was well layered for the impending attack. He never had thought that Jin could be so brazen to bring up such bizarre tactics to hide the number of planes and have explosive drones hidden in the helicarrier.
The amount of damage he had predicted had been thrown out of the window by Jin's way of performing his assault and this was when he had decided to bring out the Mechanoid Armour which he had been keeping in case for backup. Steele never expected to use it so soon but now that the frontline had disappeared right in front of him, there was no choice but to dispatch them.
There were still a few explosive drones that were lingering around and the moment those Mechanoid Armour came out, they headed straight to it. Thankfully, this was one of the top models by Rocketeers which included a shield module too and Steele was confident that those explosive drones did not do too much against the Mechanoid Armour.
But what they did not expect was that by sending out those Mechanoid Armours so soon to cover the frontline, they became an instant priority for Jin to crush them into broken debris. There was nothing so satisfying for Jin to use his demigorgon swords and a little of Byakko's Lightning Techniques to push through two huge Mechanoid Armour's shields and cut both of them into two. Gravity did most of the work and Jin did not have to worry much despite the fact that the remaining three Mechanoid Armour reacted quickly by moving away from the explosions.
They were already spraying their miniguns at him but his inverse eyes enabled him to take the shortest route possible to destroy the nearest Mechanoid Armour near him. But what he did not expect was that there were already assassins positioned around the corner to ambush him when it happened. They purposely waited until Jin had confidently destroyed one of the Mechanoid Armour before they pounced on him.
However, they have no idea that Jin's Inverse Eyes had already identified the threats including the help of the System. And what they did not know was that Jin was purposely waiting for them so that when they came, he could use them as human shields against the mini gun attacks that were trailing a few centimetres away from him.
The Mechanoid Armour stopped shooting once it realised that it had killed a friendly but that was more than enough time for Jin to use his demigorgon swords and throw them towards the Mechanoid Armour, piercing it and breaking the power core for one of them. The last Mechanoid Armour decided to charge with the laser knife that it was equipped with while blowing flamethrower at the challenger.
Yet once more, Jin utilised Byakko's lightning techniques to do a lightning flash step to not only decapacitate the mechanoid pilot driving the Armour, but he also killed an assassin attempting to support the Mechanoid Armour from the back. All this was done while grabbing the sword that he had thrown at the previous Mechanoid Armour.
Seeing how fast Jin could move, the Assassins knew that speed and strength were not something they could win and thus they decided to play dirty and threw a poison gas grenades while attempting to block Jin from running away.
"Seriously, that is all they could think of?" Jin said as he swung his demigorgon swords while imbuing it with Wind Maqi, spreading the poisonous gas away from him and sweeping it at the Royal Guards who were now attempting to surround him and create a choke point.
The assassins have no idea Jin was able to manipulate and create such a strong gust of wind and it was too late at least for the first row of Royal Guards to react to wear the masks, choking them and injuring the guards in the front line.? It was then, the assassins decided to send be reckless with their lives as atonement for the mistake they did and charged towards him, hoping that they could at least hold him down and a sniper of theirs could take him.
They were so wrong as never had they expect Jin to be this strong. It did not take long for Shai to finally admit that their regular Royal Assassins were not even a match for Jin and told them not to waste any more of their lives. "Send Elite Alpha and Elite Sigma in. The rest, cover for support."
"Don't you think you should let me handle him instead?"Steele asked and Shai shook her head.
"It's the pride of the assassins on the line. Especially after that blunder that happened, killing your Royal Guards by accident. If need be, I will go in too."
