"They are coming. Don't hold back anything, warned the primes before attacking them.
Their attacks tore through them. Killing them, but it was only a temporary measure. It will buy us a second or two.
I was right, as the Prime killed them. More came out of the platform, this time, they did nothing as the queen had intensified its attacks.
The queen is extremely powerful. Despite six people, five with laws fighting it.
They were not even able to scratch it.
It scares us, but also the Prime. They cannot continue for long, and eventually, they will get tired. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ NovelHub(.)net
Using the power of laws is tiring. Then, it wouldn't take more than a few minutes for the queen to deal with them. I don't think things would even go that far.
As soon as we are finished. Prime will deal with drones as well as the queen.
They are doing that right now. Drones aren't just attacking us, they are attacking them too, but after we are gone. The pressure would increase further.
Especially given how the strength of the drones is increasing by the minute.
Finally, the powerful drones have reached and moved to attack them.
CLANNNG Puch CLANNNG!
I defended their attack with my shield before piercing my blade into its head.
As I did, the second one attacked, and I once again defended with the shield before dealing it with my sword, while two of my swords dealt with other drones.
Yes, they have not stopped coming, and I was standing on layers of their bodies, which are getting bigger and bigger every minute.
I heard a moment later. I had sensed him dying; they had cleaved her into two.
It is going to increase the pressure on us. Kill more people until we kill the kill the queen.
Three and half seconds later, four came, and I dealt with them. Killing one with a heat bolt as it came closer to me.
The seeds have provided me with data. My clones had changed, making the attack more lethal. It could have become even more lethal if I had used a little bit of forbidden power.
I didn't. It is extremely dangerous.
Seconds passed, and more and more powerful ones kept coming. I kept dealing with them before sending them into my core.
I don't know what is happening inside me. I am not looking.
I have sealed all the destruction. I am connected to only clones that are helping me with the battle and the world tree.
The connection with it is faint but very stable. It is extremely hard to seal it. The only way I could do it was by sealing my core, and even then, I would feel something.
Eight now, I could feel every root that was wrapping around the drones, sucking their essences.
Soon, a minute passed, and something happened that hadn't happened before. I was fully surrounded by the most powerful drones.
There are twelve of them. More than most.
Horyvos had only three; the highest was seven, while I was attacked by the twelve. As I had said, the queen is smart. It is targeting me because I am the one killing most of its drones.
I am not the most powerful of the middle Primes here, but I am the one who is killing them at the fastest pace. Since the battle started, I have grown faster instead of slower.
Refining my methods and attacks to deal with them despite them learning from my every move.
"Come on!' I said to them. I didn't have to say that, as they were coming at me without my challenge.
CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG Puch!
My shields and swords met against their attacks, stopping them. While the sword in my hand reaped their lives.
It is happening fast and efficiently. I am wasting a single movement or time. I am killing them, hacking them, decapitating them, or piercing my sword into them.
I am doing what is more efficient.
I killed them in record time, but there was no time to relax as another bigger group was coming.
It would reach me a second later, and I prepared myself.
They had reached me, and I moved, clearing the clutter of drones around me when a smile appeared on my face.
My strings caught the queen.
It was too fast, and I needed to be as sneaky as possible, given its powerful soul
energy. It had turned things slow, but it finally happened.
My strings have caught it, and now it has become fully visible to me. No matter how
fast it could move, I could track it without any problem.
I do not need to track. I need to wrap my strings around it. Need to be fast, but also not get discovered before I am finished.
Thankfully, I have an advantage.
I have taken a sample of its soul energy from its drone and then from it. I had to be prepared to bind it, even before I knew what it was.
I did not plan to use the strings, but I knew I might be forced to do. So, I had made the preparations, and it's a good thing I did.
Drones kept coming as the seconds passed. The numbers kept increasing, making things more and more challenging for me and others.
Some had come really close to dying. If not for the help of powerful Primes, many would have died already.
Ours is the only group where Prime Ora barely focused on us. She only needed to help Horyvos a few times, but not once to me. My shields have kept me safe.
Though, I don't know how long this could take.
I stopped myself as I just thought about it and looked at the platform. Relief flooded
me when I saw no change in it.
'I shouldn't think such that. I was in those thoughts when a different type of drone came out.
It made me turn pale.
'Fuck me, we are dead!" cursed Horyvos, and I could feel the terror in his voice. The same one I am feeling in my heart.
