999 Gradier Xanatus's Return
Gustav had already arrived in front of another two and proceeded to make contact.
Loud bone crushing sounds could be heard as Gustav squeezed both heads to the point where their skulls were smashed in even with the protective armor covering.
Dwwowoosshhh!
His body blurred once more and he arrived on another side where he punched through the gut of one of the mixedbreeds before proceeding to send a charge of energy through its insides, causing it to blast to pieces.
Once second Gustav was here and in the next second he had already destroyed more than ten mixedbreeds with the help of his physical strength.
However they were still more than a thousand so even with the way Gustav was speedily slaughtering them, they had managed to gather around him.
Gustav clasped his palms together as he noticed he had been completely covered by these mixedbreed.
Booom!
A massive shockwave spread across the place upon contact which sent the thousands of Mixedbreeds surrounding him flying backwards.
As the shockwaves pushed them away, Gustav stretched out his right hand.
Fwwhiii!
One of them that was spiralling across the air backwards suddenly paused. Gustav pulled his hand forward and the mixedbreed began flying towards him.
Bang!
Gustav punched it’s head off the instant it arrived before him and proceeded to speed out once more to deal with the rest.
In a few minutes more, less than hundred of these infected Mixedbreeds were left.
[Ultimate Combination Has Been Deactivated]
The energy surging around Gustav began to reduce as his body transformed back into its original look.
At this point Gustav looked a bit fatigued but they were only less than a hundred so he was sure he could handle this in no time.
————————————-
-Energy: 13,000/90,000
————————————-
Gustav could see that he had spent a lot of energy points since this battle began.
He decided to utilise the rest to the best of his abilities.
[Hover Has Been Activated]
He had to activate hover now that he had deactivated Ultimate Combination.
Swwoosshh! Swwooooosh!
He flew towards the rest as atomic blades appeared in his hands.
Slash! Slash Slash!
While he took care of the rest, the battle on the ground was getting even more heated without Gustav’s contribution.
Since Gustav had been dealing with the infected Mixedbreeds in the sky, the other officers had been dealing with the ones on the ground.
Officer Fola had arrived on scene since and joined the others in fighting back the infected as well.
He had a bloodline related to energy accumulation which he could use in so many different ways.
Him joining the many other MBO officers had helped to keep the invasion at bay but the situation was still looking quite hopeless.
At this point there were lots of casualties and the MBO officers had seen their fellow comrades die and turned into one of the infected on this battle field.
With the number of infected still approaching, it looked like no matter how much they killed, they would never end.
Gustav had initially counted the numbers heading here and was able to tell that there were over a million and with this battle ongoing for hours now, they had not managed to clear up to 40% of the infected.
Gustav had given them moral by slaughtering up to fifty thousand infected all by himself in a manner of minutes but this moral was slowly dying down as the number of causality on the MBO side increased.
Their numbers had dwindled from over five thousand to three thousand in the hours they had been fending off these infected.
It was a good ratio compared to the number of infected they had gotten rid of but with the MBO not sending reinforcements at the moment, the lower their numbers the harder the battle becomes which would result in more casualties at an even faster rate.
This situation was becoming exceedingly dangerous with every passing seconds.
“Kiiiaarrrrgghhh!”
Cries rang out once more as some other MBO officers fighting beside Fola were slaughtered.
Fola quickly dashed in that direction and proceeded to get rid of the corpses with an energy bomb before they could turn into one of the infected.
His breathing was heavy at this point and he was nearly out of energy but he still kept battling against them.
He had become more crowded by the infected after some of the ones besides him got slaughtered and he had to deal with them swifter than before.
‘I won’t let the city be overrun,’ He said Internally as he sent another ball of energy into the mouth of a mixedbreed causing its internals to implode.
Suddenly a mixedbreed with insanely quick speed appeared from behind while Slashing with its claws.
Officer Fola had good reaction speed but was nearly mauled. He managed to grab hold of the infected mixedbreed paws, causing him to slide backwards due to the intensity.
It was a struggle as he held them in place and tried to fight back but before he knew it, he had been surrounded by the infected once more.
His eyes widened as they lunged at him and were only an instant away from sending him to the after life.
All of a suddenly a massive outburst of energy slammed into the infected circling him, causing them to be blasted to pieces.
He gasped with a confused look as a boulder sized rectangular structure came falling from the sky.
Bang!
It landed directly on the infected Mixedbreed in front of him, turning it to meatpaste.
In this instant he noticed he had been saved but what he saw within this rectangular structure surprised him.
The rectangular structure was more like a mini prison with glowing bars and there were three people within.
He was still staring with a confounded look when someone landed behind him.
“Are you okay?” A familiar voice rang out.
He turned around and spotted Gradier Xanatus.
“Yes sir!” He quickly responded with a respectful expression.
“If you’re exhausted, take refuge on the wall,” Gradier Xanatus said as he turned around and sent out a punch which caused shockwaves to spread across the place.
