After observing Jade’s capability to teleport the Mountain instantly compressed its bodies, making itself a harder and smaller target, its remaining 6 bodies changed from what seemed to be a mash of concrete, gravel and other building materials and became some sort of green diamond sphere, with the core shining inside it. Each body had become the size of a car. The body of the Mountain that got hit by Jade exploded and burnt with flaming gold aura as it fell.

The Mountain sent a psychic attack at Jade but Jade sensing it, activated his armors helmet’s psychic shield. The psychic attack was blocked. Even though the Mountain had psychic capabilities it was worthless compared to the attack of monsters that specialized in psychic attacks, it couldn’t match up to technology that was made to counter them. The Mountain’s bodies dashed around at insane speeds while shooting plasma attacks that curved and turned to hit Jade.

Jade disappeared from place to place avoiding the attacks easily, shooting golden missiles to constrict the Mountain’s movement as they dodged while trying to approach one of the bodies. His attempt was very successful as one of the Mountain’s bodies appeared in his sight, 1 kilometer away from him after a teleport. As he was about to send the golden missile at the body when he suddenly turned midair and the golden missile was shot far into the horizon. The Mountain had controlled him with its gravity field and made him miss. After his miss, a large salvo of plasma beams from the Technology Mountain and the Rank 9s and 10s headed toward him.

Jade teleported away and the beams collided with each other and set off and explosion. With the Rank 9s and 10s joining, the battle became a very chaotic light show. White plasma beams flashed everywhere as Jade appeared and reappeared.

With his sensory device, Horus, Jade noticed an abnormality with the Rank 9 and 10 Elementals; their cores were brimming with energy even though there should have been a lack of energy since they lost some of the cores. Jade thought ‘As expected, suicide strategy is the best at dealing with a teleporter. I bet they’ll explode if I get close to them now considering their ambush didn’t work’.

Jade smiled and stopped teleporting. He gave his armor a mental command ‘Silver Countenance’. Silver aura covered the armor and by extension his whole body. The aura was so thick and dense that it obscured his appearance. The plasma beams reached Jade but they sank into the Silver aura that covered him.

With Jade not disappearing anymore the Elementals bathed him with white plasma beams. Jade grit his teeth as his armor took large swaths of energy from him to sustain the silver aura that was consuming the plasma beams.

Jade’s energy reserves fell as the Elementals refused to relent releasing nonstop plasma beams at him. The signals he got from his energy zone became fuzzy as the density of the zone decreased. Jade waited until his energy was at one tenth its full capacity.

At this point Jade gave his glaive, Ouki, a mental command ‘Phantom Reaper’. The golden aura on the glaive swiftly disappeared and was replaced by a black aura with thin blue streaks that formed patterns around it. This was another spectrum aura texture.

The black aura with blue patterns swiftly formed a very thin 8 meter long scythe blade by forming a curved aura blade from the side of the glaive. The moment the blade formed Jade disappeared, a moment later the Rank 11 Elemental felt one of its cores die.

From the data it got from the body and the surrounding Elemental spawn. Jade had appeared about 2 kilometers from the body and he swung at such a high speed that the Elementals only knew he swung because the body of the Rank 11 Technology Mountain had been split in half, the slash going through the core, killing it.

The Mountain was down to 5 cores, it thought ‘How did he hit the body? He was still so far away from it. The body didn’t sense any long range attack enter its energy zone before it died. That means his attack range is longer than what I initially judged it as and he can perfectly destroy a core with a single use of such a long range attack. He is more dangerous than he initially appeared to be! I need to take back the advantage’.

While the Mountain was thinking it lost another core to Jade’s scythe; the Mountain was down to 4 cores. The Mountain and all its spawn fell toward the ground at an abnormal speed as they augmented the earth’s gravity with their own gravity fields and pulled their bodies down. The spawns activated their Knight’s Wisdom privilege and their intelligence and energy rose as their energy zone expanded without the energy density decreasing.

Jade seeing this understood that he was one a timer, he teleported after the falling Elementals. The spawn and the Technology Mountain clustered together and they rapidly fired powerful plasma shots unlike what they were shooting before. Their aim was to keep the area around the Mountain dense with plasma beams so that Jade would surely get hit if he teleported there.

Jade teleported all the plasma shots, near one of the Mountain’s bodies, away to make space for him to strike, he only needed a moment. A moment later the body was split into twain along with its core with the blue patterned black aura lining the cut; the Mountain was down to 3 cores.

The Mountain was in deep despair, regretting how it underestimated the ‘Rank 2 Fried Chicken’; it thought ‘It has been hiding its strength to make me underestimate it and fight it in a disadvantageous situation. HOW INSIDIOUS!!!’

The Mountain lost another core before it reached the ground leaving it with 2 cores. The remaining bodies of the mountain sunk into the ground, the phenomenon looked like a drop of water falling into the sea, it was a seamless and fluid motion.

The plasma shots over the area of ground where one of the Elementals bodies sunk suddenly disappeared replace by Jade. Jade swung his scythe; the core had not gone very far into the ground, the scythe reached it and split in into two, the Mountain was left with one core that had sunk sufficiently deep into the ground.
