Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology

Chapter 157 - The Challenge 3



Without further ado, Laka pounced on Emma fiercely. Since the commander will not use his strength and strange movement skills. Then this battle had already been won by them. Laka was already thinking of what to do with the command promise. The darkish sword hums slightly, generating a powerful force, going straight for Emma's neck.

Seeing this, everyone was surprised by Laka's quick swordplay. No one had seen such an extreme fast sword in their lives. However, the people only think about it for a moment when their attention returns to their commander. Waiting for how their commander would retaliate to the dangerous sword attack. Meanwhile, Emma only stood straight with his spear. When the sword was a couple of inches from his neck. Something happened. 

Swiss!

Bang!

Emma's hands only went back and forth for a few seconds and a shocking scene appeared in front of the people. Laka couldn't understand how he found himself in the air. But the pain coming from his chest confirmed this was no dream. Thud! Laka crashed on the ground, holding his chest. Meanwhile, Jojo and Maya froze a couple of feet from Emma. Their eyes widened and their mouths slightly opened. They stared at Emma in shock. What the fuck! 

No one saw the attack was made. The only thing that moved was Emma's hands. Yet, Laka was sent flying without the hand reaching him. The open field was quiet and all the Ghosthunters were processing what just happened. But after a couple of seconds, none could come up with a reasonable explanation of what just happened. 

"Would you just stay there like a moron, not attacking?" Emma could voice jotted everyone back to life. 

Hmm!

Jojo and Maya blinked their eyes and looked at each other and nodded. At once, they attack Emma from both sides. Their previous confidence was already down the drain. What they could do now was try their best to touch the hem of their commander's cloth. And with the look of things, it wouldn't be a walk in the park.

Maya, the cool head of the three noticed something immediately when she swung her sword. Hmm! She raised her brow, but the fight was already in motion. She put away the lingering questions and focused on the fight. Meanwhile, Emma stood rooted on the spot as the attack was closing in on him. Just like his previous action, when the two swords were a couple from him. He moved.

Just like a phantom, Emma's hand blurred with the environment and the lifeless spear came to life. Swiss! Emma swings the spear creating an X. Clang! The sound of metal hitting each other reverberated through the quiet field as everyone couldn't blink from the astonishing display in their sight. Huh! Jojo and Maya took a couple of steps backward while their sword produced something extraordinary. With their eyes, jaw drop, and with trembling hands. They stared at the weapon in their hands. Not believing what they are witnessing. 

Holy Moly. 

Emma watched their stupefied expression with his lips curled upward a bit. This scene satisfied him. If he tells them everything. They would understand the gravity of things but now… He attacked both at the same time, not caring at their dumbfounded expression. 

What! 

Seeing the commander attacking them. Maya and Jojo recover from the initial shock, they neglect the bizarre effect of the sword and defend against the incoming attack. Clank! Clank! Hmm. The two women groaned, retreating a couple of steps backward. They couldn't understand what the hell was pushing them back. But any attempt to stop this was futile. 

While also, the uniqueness of the sword became apparent. Jojo's sword sprouted fire while Maya had a blue hue of water. Laka that was previously regained from the beating looked at the weapon in his hand and began to wonder what was the uniqueness of the sword in his hand. As a highly competitive man. He ignores the raging pain in his chest and joins the battle.

However, some people couldn't believe what they were seeing. These people are the onlookers. Sword with fire! Sword with Water. What the heck! The people were finding it difficult to believe what was happening. 

"Is this really happening? Tell me this is a dream." One of the Ghosthunters asked with a low voice.

"Slap yourself to confirm whether you are dreaming or not?" Another person answered without looking at him.

Pa!

A resounding slap echoed and all eyes turned in one direction. And only to hear. "This is definitely not a dream." Hmm! Hearing this, the people shook their heads and focused on the ongoing fight. Though they didn't understand how a sword could produce something like fire and water. But the fact remains, these are no normal weapons. and deep within. They are thirsty to get their hands on it.

Three people were furiously attacking a single man however instead of overwhelming the man. The man fenced off their attack casually without breaking a sweat. The breathing of the three people was in disorder, sweats dripping from their foreheads. However, instead of getting tired and exhausted, it was the opposite. The radiant glow in their eyes and the slight smile on their face told another story entirely. 

Ah!

Jojo couldn't defend against the sudden attack on time and was hit by the spear. Groaning, she retreated and looked at the blue man with eyes of reverence. She had fought in various wars and seen many marksmanship. But no one was close to the man in front of her.

Ah!

While still in her thoughts, Maya was hit. Jojo blinked and looked at her comrades and chuckled. She looked at the sword in her hand and understood everything. Why did we question the commander? She thought.

Ah!

Hmm!

Jojo furrowed and raised her head and only to see Laka wriggling in pain not far from her. That's too fast. Before she could process what was happening. A sudden rush of air accosted her face and her instinct kicked in. Before she could raise her sword, something hit her shoulder, straight to her back.

Ah!

A rush of blood flows to her mouth, but she swallows it forcefully. Some of her ribs had been broken, but she doesn't care about it. Gnashing her teeth, she used the sword to support herself and stood. Ah! Ah! Both the cry of Maya and Laka reverberated through the still environment. This sends shivers to the people looking at them. 

Scary. They shivered. 

Maya and Laka sprout blood from their mouth and nose. Their faces became ashen with a forced smile. Did they regret questioning the commander? Absolutely Yes. The people-watching won't understand the gravity of their pain. Only they knew what was happening deep in their body. Their intestines were crushed, some misplaced from their original position and with lost fractured ribs. The high blood pressure makes it impossible for them to focus. Every part of their body was screaming of pain. Did they want to surrender, yes? But only the commander can call the shot.

Jojo wrinkled his brow and looked at the groaning and wriggling in pain. She averted his eyes and looked at the commander approaching her calmly. We couldn't see the movement of your weapon. How the hell are we going to touch your clothes, not even thinking about hurting you. 

With a watery eye, she cleared her throat. But before she could say anything, another rush of air whistled to her face. Shit! She abandoned her previous thought and defended like her life depended on it. Clank! With a jelly leg, she stumbled back. However, before she could regain her footing. Another attack was already approaching.

Ah!

She crashed on the ground; blood flew out of her mouth, dying her uniform. She dropped her weapon and looked lifelessly at the sky. Blood rushed to her eyes, turning red. Her heart tightened, muscled aching, lungs constricting, panting excessively. Holding his spear, Emma stood proudly in front of the three, ready to strike again. 

"W-we… regret… our stupidity… Mercy." Maya stuttered, blood escaping from her mouth.

Hearing this, Emma stopped his action and looked at the three without uttering a word. Everywhere silent, the clear sky was filled with heaviness, no one dared to breathe loudly. The gentle breeze whispered and the tingling of leaves echoed faintly from the background. 

After a couple of seconds, that feels like forever. Emma's voice echoed in the still atmosphere. "Last Chance." With these two words, Emma turned back and left. However, it took the group ten minutes for them to recover from the shock. Hmm. Jojo groaned when she tried to stand but she found it impossible. She smiled wryly in her mind and looked at the other two. and behold she saw the fear in their eyes. Deep down, they vow never to question the commander again.

"Zeus, send those materials to the facility. We need to get serious."

[[I've done that.]]

"Good" Emma nodded.

[[Master, what do you think about runes? Creating weapon is of no use to us presently.]]

Hearing Zeus's monotone voice, Emma didn't bother to reply but smiled mysteriously.
