Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 286: Geo-Core (II): Fight

Rezar flipped over the railing of the airship, free falling across the sky as he inclined himself towards the ground, letting gravity run its course as the wind whipped past his ears and clothes. The Geo core was like a massive imposing presence i9n front of him, and as he drew closer towards it, he could somehow appreciate the detail and hard work that had been put into its creation.

There was a loud whoosh besides him as Lenore flashed past him, her entire form a cascade of billowing flames, and following closely behind her was Kitagawa with his demon flames and Samira with her form covered by a flock of bats. It seemed to be a race between them, and if he had to be honest this was just crazy. They were the main leaders and rulers of Morte Bianca, their choices and decisions determined the life and death of a lot of people, yet here they were running a race like they were nothing more than common teenagers.

The Geo core was rapidly drawing closer, becoming larger and larger in his vision until it was all he could see. A giant slab of black rock highlighted by concentric circles of glowing silver and gold. It seemed similar to a solar system, a sun with a couple of celestial bodies orbiting around it. As he drew closers he could feel the energy being released by the Geo core, and while it was a bit obscure and restricted, Rezar could tell that there was quite a lot of it.

But even if they had stupidly decided to use their descent as a race, they all knew they had to land on the geo core as gently as possible, because it was quite sensitive and might react to their landing as a hostile attempt. And that would cause the bloody thing to self-destruct, which meant no matter how powerful his healing factor was, this damn thing would put him down. permanently.

They all landed gently, using their skills to alight gently on the Geo core. Rezar landed immediately and huffed at the others, but given how rough the winds were at the altitude they currently were, the sound he made was carried away. He looked to left and then to the right. They had dropped as close as possible to the entrance of the core at the head, but given this was a ten kilometer giant mass of rock in the sky, there were still a fair bit of distance away from the entrance.

"LETS! GO!"

Rezar shouted at them and then moved his body towards the right, leaving behind an after image as his speed went up a notch. But it didn't matter, everyone here was almost as strong as he was, if not a bit more in some aspects. Lightning covered Lenore's body as she shot behind him, Kitagawa shifted into his giant Kitsune form as he followed next and Samira turned into a flock of bats and actually pulled ahead, flying side by side with her master.

These were some of the strongest if not the strongest people in all of Elysium, it wouldn't be too farfetched to say that they could move as fast as a speeding bullet. It didn't take them long to come across what was without a doubt the entrance into the Geo core. However just finding the entrance was not as simple as it might seem. There was arch that led down into the core, however surrounding said arc were eleven bronze golems.

As far as strength went they were at the early stage of the bronze rank. Normally it would take a release of energy or active combat to be able to tell just what rank a person actually was, however they were now face to face with something they haven't seen in a while.an enemy's display panel.

[Dwarven Golem Guardians: Bronze Rank II]

There was nothing about their skills in the display panel, but that didn't matter as this was enough for them to know what they were dealing with. Honestly speaking if this was the level of enemies they had to take care of, then taking over this core wouldn't be too hard. Rezar pulled out Vita Gratia from his back and pointed at the golems, which was all the permissions his team needed.

A lightning clad Lenore shot forwards with her signature Rapier coated with blazing flames. A hole appeared on the frame of two golems, and almost immediately an alarm of sorts went off amongst the golems as a beam of dull silver light shot out of the face of one of the golems and blasted into Lenore who was thrown backwards like a rag doll or a puppet that's had its strings cut.

She flipped up almost immediately with one side of hair burnt away while smoke seemed to be raising up from her body. For the most part she seemed unscathed, apart from her missing hair and bruised ego. But none the less they now had an idea of what they were dealing with and knew that even though they might seem low ranked, they were not to underestimated.

Rezar shot forwards swinging Vita Gratia in a wild arc for the knee of a golem. The golems themselves had varying heights, but the shirted amongst them was about 4 feet tall and the tallest at roughly 10 feet. Rezar didn't know what it meant, but never the less, the bigger they are, the harder they fall. He had gone right for the biggest golem amongst the dozen, swinging the full staff form of vita Gratia and making sure its blades sliced through the knee of the golem.

There was a loud grating sound as the blades of vita seemed to get stuck in between some gears in the golem's knee. But that didn't stop or slow down Rezar as he threw a powerful left handed punch at the golem, sending it flying back and crashing into the wandering form of a smaller colleague, he shot forwards, his footsteps leaving cracks on the ground as he jumped into the air with Vita Gratia poised to stab down.

[Mana Blade]

A blue glow covered the form of the weapon as it stabbed down, heading straight for the face of the golem, that quickly released a beam of light to counter the incoming attack. The blades seemed to slice apart the light beam itself before stabbing dep into the head of the golem and ruining the massive bronze giant.

He quickly ducked down under another beam as he took a deep breath and moved forwards dodging another one as he activated another one of his skills. [Mana Charge]. He could feel the buildup of energy within his body as the mana gathered and strengthened him for the next skill he had to release. He split Vita Gratia in two as activated his next skill which had been powered by [Mana Charge].

[Spectral Skull]

This skill had almost no physical damage whatsoever, but instead attacked the magic energy of Rezar's opponents. In this case they were the golems, and an interference with the magic within them, which was mostly responsible for powering them and their various functions off, would have disastrous consequences.

*Boooom! *

Rezar was thrown backwards and on his back as a loud explosion seemed to rock the entirety of the Geo core. It was quite a scary sight if he had to be honest as he felt quite a few bones break. For a moment he felt his heart grow cold as the Geo Core seemed to rumble in its entirety. He had almost forgotten that it was dangerous to battle on the surface of the core because of its defense mechanism. Any rough moves would probably see them all blown ton thy kingdom come.

"Do you think you can avoid using that skill your majesty, I do want to return home in time for dinner." Samira playfully joked, Rezar rolled his eyes because he could see through her calm charade, they all did. For a moment there she had lost her calm to fear, but never the less if it was impossible to us some kinds of skill, it would be better to keep this basic.

Rezar got back up to his feet, there was a small crater when the golem had exploded. But right in front of his eyes could see the hole filling up, and in the process he saw some of the bodies of the fallen golems absorbed to be used in repairing the damage. Rezar widened his eyes ion surprise as he realized something, and it seemed he was not the only one as Kitagawa still in his Kitsune form sent a telepathic message.

"The golems are being absorbed by the core for repairs! I think it's the core itself that's responsible for the propagation of the golems, that is to say the bloody is spawning the golems. And seeing how big this thing is, even if we've have no prior knowledge of its size, it's safe to say it can drown us in an army of golems. What do we do?" he asked, keeping his voice even and completely devoid of emotion.

"Well there's nothing to it, we have no other choice but to see this battle to the end. So Kitagawa, what we're going to do as always is fight!"
