Chapter 488
The commotion of the collapsing building startled the pedestrians and they gathered together at a distance, pointing at the rubble as they discussed about the chaos with shock .
In the skies, a large number of aircrafts stopped in midair and looked down at the rubble below .
While the destruction of this battle was not as bad as the battle between the three Grade A Supers, because of something similar happening a while back, the citizens of Noriosse paid close attention to the battle .
"How is Black Star? Who won?" A couple of mercenaries who ignited the explosives had long escaped from the base and were currently in midair within an aircraft .
Swoosh!
A mechanical arm pushed off a large boulder, and a figure could be seen climbing out of the rubble with difficulty . With his hands on his knees, Han Xiao panted heavily .
"Ouch… a few of my ribs were fractured . " Han Xiao felt a dull ache in his chest . An entire building had crashed down on him, and even with the powerful defense of his Void Dragon armor, its durability had fallen from the original sixty-seven percent to about thirty percent . Black crack marks could be seen all over the armor, and sparks could be seen coming out from some of the cracks . Thankfully, the equipment's passive [Indestructible Toughness] was activated, and the resistance of the armor was increased many times over .
A portion of the damage penetrated through the mechanical suit's defenses . Han Xiao looked at the interface in front of him, and it showed that he had lost more than 4,000 HP together with light fractures and slight dizziness effects .
The majority of the damage had come from the falling debris . Thousands of tons of debris had smashed down onto his body, and when he was falling, his entire attention had been placed on attacking . He had let Phillip take over the control of the machines so that he would not need to divert his attention . When he landed, both he and Ember had landed in two different regions . Phillip had immediately turned the Halo Array into a shield to block the majority of the falling debris . Without that, the damage that he had suffered would definitely have been much worse .
Because of the collapsed building, the majority of his machines were buried under the rubble . However, he still had over seventy compressed orbs on him and still had the ability to fight . Aroshia separated from the mechanical suit, and her glow was obviously dimmer than before . Han Xiao had used up plenty of energy .
The dust cloud spread, and his visibility was limited . Han Xiao looked around him to find Ember .
Killing a Calamity Grade Super was not that easy, but this series of attacks would definitely be enough to make Ember suffer . Ember did not have the powerful physique of a pugilist or any Esper abilities to strengthen his body . If he did not use his Esper abilities to put up a defense, his durability would not be very high .
Sha sha sha!
At that moment, a familiar grinding sound could be heard, and Han Xiao's expression changed . He immediately jumped back, and three thick black spears shot down where he had been standing just a moment ago . Those black spears had easily penetrated through the rubble and created a pit over ten meters long .
The dust cloud was blown away by the strong wind, and Han Xiao could see a thick, black wave that was double the size of before . It spanned over two to three hundred meters and was still expanding . Now that he was not in a building, Ember was able to gain access to a never-ending supply of carbon .
All of a sudden, the black current condensed into a large, lifelike python, which was two to three meters thick and a hundred meters long . The body of the python stood erect with its snake head looking at Han Xiao, sticking out its tongue . It looked as though it was truly alive . On top of the snake's head, Ember's figure could be seen .
He should have been full of elegance and majesty, but he was currently looking a little pitiful . His clothes were torn all over the place and blood was seeping down from his forehead with half of his face dyed red . The skin at the back of his head all the way down to his neck was torn apart . Being shot by the Void Jet Spray twenty to thirty times had obviously left a scar . Ember's face contorted in pain as he glared at Han Xiao furiously .
Every single attack that Han Xiao shot out was aimed at his head, and Ember had to focus all of his attention to control his Esper abilities . Thus, he was forced to endure a head splitting headache, which affected his ability to control his Esper powers . He was not able to perform any meticulous control and could only expand the range of his carbon wave .
In the sky, a couple of mercenaries gasped in disbelief . "That Calamity Grade Super is severely injured!"
They had personally witnessed Ember's strength, and there was even one of them who had personally experienced it . However, Black Star was actually not on the losing end and had severely injured this Grade A Super who was considered a powerful figure in the galaxy .
He was truly formidable!
The gazes of those in the surroundings were very quickly drawn to Ember . In truth, it was difficult for them not to notice such a large black snake .
This looks bad . Han Xiao knew that things were no longer in his favor . For him to achieve such a battle result, it was because of his meticulous set up of the battlefield ahead of the event . While he had severely wounded Ember and affected his battle prowess, Ember was still far from death . Since they were on the outside, Ember would be able to make full use of his abilities, and it would be difficult for him to injure Ember any further . There would not be a chance like before .
A thought flashed through Han Xiao's head . His attention is fully on me . As long as I can hold him back, when Nagakin succeeds on the other side…
He would not lose his cool just because he had the upper hand . He was very clear that he would be the one suffering if the battle continued .
He did not continue battle, and the thrusters of his Void Dragon mechanical suit began spewing fire . Han Xiao shot into the sky and began to flee . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
"Don't think of escaping!" Ember roared furiously, and the python under him shot into the sky to chase after Han Xiao .
Escape? This is a strategic retreat!
Numerous black spears shot over, and Han Xiao avoided them nimbly in midair . Turning around to take a look, Han Xiao heaved a sigh of relief . Thankfully, Ember gave chase . That fellow was indeed infuriated .
Avoiding a head on confrontation and letting Ember chase him would allow him to buy the largest amount of time . Han Xiao did not feel that it was necessary to fight him head on .
With one person escaping and the other chasing, both of them weaved through the buildings . Humungous black python charged forward recklessly, and its size was constantly increasing . All the aircrafts along the way hurriedly avoided the python, and those that were not able to get out of the way in time were quickly reduced to shreds . Even the buildings that the python merely brushed past had large chunks taken out of them .
The commotion was shocking!
