《Mite》4.12 - The Clash With Turbo

4.12
Silas stood up and watched as his two teammates waved like awkward people searching through a crowd.
Turbo spun and retrieved something from his pocket. He flicked his hand out and Jimena dodged just in time as a miniature projectile sped by her and exploded into a building.
“Oi, you made me lose my car!” The taxi driver yelled.
“This isn’t your fight, you better get out of the way,” said Hunter. The taxi driver slammed a fist into her open hand. Her neck cracked as it turned, and she rotated her shoulders.
“Name’s Nakamura Aiko and this is my fight. My car is destroyed, and I’m not covered.”
“Can you fight?” Jimena asked.
“Tsch, yeah.” Nakamura pulled on fingerless leather gloves.
“Sweet.” Hunter opened his flasks of dust and watched as Turbo flicked another projectile toward them. Jimena launched a slimeball and as the slime enveloped the projectile, it exploded.
“Huh. Small cars?” Hunter asked.
“Small cars,” said Jimena.
“Oh its on!” Nakamura ran forward a few steps and took a great leap forward toward Turbo. She brought her fist back ready for contact but suddenly twisted and brought her foot down into the ground. Some jagged rock flicked up and two mini explosions smashed into the rock.
“Is this even our fight now?” Hunter asked.
“I dunno.” Jimena rushed forward and let her slimeballs fly at Turbo. Turbo expertly dodged most of Jimena’s projectiles and the few that hit him seemed to do nothing.
Turbo retaliated by sending a few more of his tiny cars at Jimena and Nakamura. Jimena turned herself into slime and Nakamura split the ground with her fist and slipped down into the crack.
“This hardly seems fair. Four against one, I think I need to even the odds a little here.” Turbo started to laugh.

Silas launched himself toward Turbo and in one swift movement, Turbo spun and put his heel into the side of Silas’s head, sending him flying away.
“You three looks like you’re a buncha kids. That one in the leather jacket seems like the only good fighter among you.” His voice had a stretched, grating quality to it.
“Whatever.” Hunter said to himself. He circled the conflict, his dust javelins circled around him.
Something sliced his shoulder and exploded just behind him, sending him forward.
“I don’t think so. Hey, I think its time you showed yourself and helped out.” Turbo looked up at the buildings and Hunter watched as a figure in the shadows jumped down onto the street.
This newcomer looked sickly thin and had a fringe that covered one eye. Their clothes were baggy, and they were barefoot.
“Do I have to?” the voice was a sombre song that echoed through the night.
“Of course. Do you think they’re playing fair?” Turbo asked. As he was talking to this new arrival, Nakamura jumped up from the crack she had been hiding in. She launched herself forward at Turbo, but the newcomer intercepted.
The newcomer tapped Nakamura on the shoulder, and she was instantly sixty feet on the other side of Turbo.
“What?” Nakamura spun around, took a few bounding steps, and launched herself at Turbo once again. Turbo’s ally tapped her again and this time she was thirty feet behind them.
“I’ll stop the new one,” said Jimena. She shot a few slimeballs and Turbo’s ally easily dodged each one.
Silas came flying in once again, rocketing toward Turbo. Turbo readied another kick but at the same time, one of Hunter’s javelins swept Turbo’s other leg from beneath him.
Silas rammed into Turbo and the two collided into the newcomer. The three tumbled and turned through the air.

Nakamura leapt through and grabbed Silas and separated him from the other two. Turbo and the other one slid across the road and collided into a tree. Turbo pulled himself up, laughing.
He flicked out more explosive cars at them and they all had to scatter. Just as Hunter pulled himself up from hiding, a normal sized car came speeding toward him. He dodged but it exploded behind him, sending him falling forward.
Turbo pulled his friend up and the two of them looked at the three heroes and the taxi driver.
“I’ve certainly had enough fun for now, haven’t you?” They made a break for it into the twisting streets. Silas made to go after them, but Hunter stopped him.
“We need to help anyone left here. We’ll get them another time.”
“We can’t just let them get away with this.”
“Michael and Traffic Control are onto it.”
“But?”
“Silas, its okay.” Jimena joined them and Nakamura was behind her.
“Few people here look like they could use some help.” Hunter turned to see an older teen with curly red hair and a large straw hat was assessing the scene.
“Yeah, can you do anything?” Hunter asked.
“Well golly, just hope I got the right seeds and herbs.” The teen looked through a hessian bag that hung from his shoulder.
“That’s Green Thumb, from Power Teens. One of Smileys teammates,” said Silas quietly.
“And he can help?”
“Should do. Has powers with nature. Excels growth, brings plants to their fullest potential. Think he can speak to them too.”
Hunter, Jimena, Silas, and Nakamura watched on as Green Thumb pulled a seed from his bag. He pushed it into some dirt in the ground and the seed immediately erupted into fully grown, drooping tree.
Succulent red fruit burst all through the tree and Green Thumb grabbed most of them. He sliced them open and grabbed some herbs from his bag and mixed them in with the fruit in a small, stone mortar and pestle.
“You lot think you can help out? There’s a mighty amount here and I can’t get to all of them.”
The five of them worked together, getting through the crowd of bodies. Even the few believed to have perished were brought back.
“Luckily none of them had been dead for too long. If I was much later, even my powers wouldn’t have worked.” Green Thumb rubbed the back of his head.
“You ever thought of joining the fight?” Hunter asked Nakamura.
“Aww nah. I like driving too much. And if I wasn’t doing that, most of you lot wouldn’t make it in time. Now I gotta go build me a new one.” Nakamura bid farewell and disappeared into the night.
The three teens returned to the treehouse, exhausted.
“I want a holiday,” said Silas.
“Excellent timing, I was going to make a trip to the Elder Tree,” said Stick.

8 212Xianxia Online (A LitRPG Progression Fantasy)
When Earth falls to ruin and humanity’s survival is at stake, all of mankind is forced to enter the fantasy universe of the world’s hottest VRMMORPG, Xianxia Online. To uphold law and order, past players’ profiles were erased and forced to start anew, while law enforcers and authority figures such as government officials were granted powerful positions right off the start. After all, this was a world where dog eats dog, and the weak are cruelly left behind. Xuan, alias Zero, had been the top player and a legendary figure on the leaderboards of the game when the news struck. He had been mere inches away from being the first player cultivator to ever enter Godhood, but now, everything he had once possessed—divine weapons, legendary artifacts, and mythical beasts for pets—was gone, along with his thousands of years of cultivation. Having always been a lone wolf and remained anonymous, this reset hit him harder than most players, who could comfortably rely on others for help when needed. But no matter. The path of cultivation was riddled with challenges and hardships—since when did he let something as trivial as this stop him? He may have lost all of his riches, but he still had the most powerful weapons of all by his side—knowledge and experience. Combine that with the various secret treasure stashes he had around the world of Xianxia Online, and his climb back to the pinnacle of strength would be inevitable. Very soon, he will rise to the top again, and crush those who dared to try and tie him down. This game was mankind's world now. And he... was the apex predator. Witness as Xuan climbs his way back to the peak of cultivation and dominates everyone else in existence! ***** Remember that more chapters can be found on Webnovel!

8 199Den of Vipers
The Year is XXXX, and a deep, heavy fog sets in all over not just the planet, but the whole of the universe, sending all within into a deep, deep sleep. When they awake, all has changed, and both for the better and the worse. Everything has changed, from the new, impossibly massive planet that all now occupy to the terrain to the very rules of reality themselves. But what has changed the most are the people. It seemed as though Humanity was alone in the cosmos, but no longer, as new, monstrous races have been born from the flesh of those whom the Fog singled out. With the survivors rewarded for each altered former human they kill, along with each heroic (and villainous) act that they engage in, those who have changed are forced to run, hide, and try to fight back. But in a distant place, a single altered person stirs from her sleep as the Fog fades. With no Humans for hundreds of miles and a [Quest] that all other Altered share guiding her newly inhuman mind, the newly born serpentine but humanoid monster will have to fight for survival and dominance in a world hellbent on her death, with that violent, pathological hate coming not just from the remaining Humans.
