Chapter 245 Rematch With The Sentinel (Part 3)



The explosion of the frozen Fire Sentinel was devastating. As the center of the sentinel's body glowed bright orange, the ice encasing it shattered into countless pieces, scattering in all directions. The force of the explosion sent shockwaves rippling through the area, knocking Team A off their feet.

Mako, Erin, and Iris were sent flying backward, crashing into the ground some distance away from the blast. The impact was brutal, and they felt the shockwave pass through their bodies. The intense heat from the explosion scorched the air, leaving them disoriented and struggling to catch their breath.

The frozen husk of the Fire Sentinel was obliterated, leaving nothing but a decent-sized crater in its place. The explosion had been powerful enough to destroy the surrounding terrain and left a pit of fire in the center of the explosion where its frozen body previously lay.

As the smoke and dust cleared, Team A was seen knocked out and laying on the ground, battered but alive.

Meanwhile, Team B was still locked in a fierce battle with the second Fire Sentinel. Nathan had transformed into his blood wolf form, and using the speed of this form combined with his advanced perception to sense the attacks of the Fire Sentinel, he was barely able to dodge everything and stay alive.

He and Leon were only able to dodge and distract the Fire Sentinel as neither one had what it takes to defeat the violent and crazy sentinel.

Leon's hardening was pointless as it was basically his skin getting tough enough so that nothing could pierce it but it could still conduct heat any lingering fire attack would hurt him, but it was still manageable since he also had the Fire ability.

Nathan's blood attacks were useless as they would evaporate as soon as they touched the sentinel, leaving it unharmed.

Additionally, they both were also feeling the heat as they were sweating like crazy. They had to think of a way to break through or else they would become rotisserie chicken in not too long.

Leon had been able to slow down the sentinel by conjuring as many random Earth walls as possible to help give them cover and block the sentinel's line of sight but it used quite a bit of his energy too.

Leon and Nathan took cover near one of the conjured Earth walls thinking of a plan to break through, but nothing came to mind.

However, before they lost all hope, the ground beneath them began to tremble. Nathan and Leon were instantly on guard and were confused as to what was happening. Were they suffering an earthquake? Was this the Fire Sentinel's doing?

Their answers were shortly answered as the trembling intensified and suddenly a hole began to tear open from within the ground and out came Bill surrounded by several rings of water.

"Bill?!" They both shouted in confusion as they were not expecting him to show up out of the blue after they had left him behind so far away not too long ago.

Bill, who had finally managed to reach the center, observed the chaos from a distance. He had encountered numerous traps and turrets while making his way over to the center and it was becoming too much for him, however, before he could call it quits, his ingenuity came through as he looked at the ground beneath his feet.

He recalled the rules that Commander Sable had given them before the start of the match, which were quite little to begin with and none of them mentioned tunneling was against the rules.

A smile appeared on his face as he created a hole in the ground using his Earth ability and slipped in while the turrets continued to shoot at his cover.

Once inside, Bill quickly began tunneling straight toward the center. There were no obstacles or traps underground which meant that Bill could tunnel directly towards the center without having to make any turns at all.

As he tunneled through he would often encounter water gushing out from where he was tunneling as he tunneled directly into a puddle, but since Bill now had the water ability he manipulated it from rings around him so that he could also use his water ability in battle after he reaches the center.

Bill had neglected his newest ability a bit before but during the training week, he had spent a lot of time getting used to the water ability and learning how versatile it really was. He continued tunneling as he quickly made his way to the center and made a hole back to the surface again to announce his arrival, but the scene he came to was he could have never expected.

Leon quickly filled in Bill on what was happening while Nathan was just stunned thinking about how Bill had made it to the center without his help and now he had to rely on him if they wanted to defeat this sentinel.

Seeing his team struggling against the Fire Sentinel, Bill knew he had to act quickly. He had an idea that might turn the tide of the battle.

Firstly, he took some of the water from his rings and washed down Nathan and Leon with it to cool them down and he also gave them a drink so they would be refreshed to fight once again. contemporary romance

Using his water ability, Bill combined all of his remaining water rings and formed a massive water sphere above everyone. He asked Leon for the sentinel's position which was about 200 meters away from them as he was currently rampaging through Leon's walls.

With a powerful burst of wind, he launched the water sphere toward the creature, hoping to douse it in water and weaken it.

However, the Fire Sentinel was quick to react. It unleashed a torrent of flames, evaporating the water sphere before it could reach its intended target and creating a cloud of steam in the air which didn't affect the sentinel at all as the steam cloud was still very high up in the air.

Bill's plan failed, and the Fire Sentinel continued its relentless assault on Team B.

Nathan, frustrated by another failure, decided to just do it himself. He climbed up the wall in his blood wolf form and rushed toward the fire sentinel. Using height as an advantage he jumped from one wall to the next and used his blood manipulation powers to create sharp blood spikes and hurled them at the Fire Sentinel.

The spikes hit their mark, causing small bursts of steam upon impact, but the Fire Sentinel seemed relatively unaffected. Even though it hadn't done much, the sentinel had switched priorities and was now targeting Nathan by shooting fire attacks at him.

Thanks to his advanced perception, Nathan was easily able to dodge the attacks, but his counters were still inefficient.

Leon, on the other hand, was grabbing his head in worry as he observed Nathan's foolishness.

"What is that idiot doing, this will achieve nothing!" He shouted.

However, Bill quickly grabbed his arm and shut him down," Don't worry, he isn't doing anything wrong. He is just buying time. Time for me to think of a new plan to take that thing out since I am the only one capable of countering fire." Bill said, "Go with him. Keep distracting that sentinel. I will be ready soon."

Bill began concentration as he activated his earth aura while Leon who still didn't understand much decided to trust Bill and quickly zigzagged through his own maze of Earth walls and reached the sentinel.

He used his hand signals to inform Nathan to keep going and that Bill has a plan.

He attacked the fire sentinel with his own fire to get him to chase him. Using his speed ability to dodge the Fire Sentinel's attacks with precision. He was fast, but the Fire Sentinel was relentless and seemed to anticipate his moves.

Nathan used his blood manipulation powers to create long, sharp blood spears. He aimed for the Fire Sentinel's core and threw the spears with precision and speed. Each spear pierced the fiery surface and evaporated but did distract the sentinel.

Both Nathan and Leon took turns attacking the sentinel and taking its agro when it was close to cornering the other.

However, while Nathan was being chased by the sentinel while he was atop the walls, a sudden loud bang was heard accompanied by severe shaking of the area as the shockwave traveled through.

The shaking caused Nathan to lose his footing and he fell from the wall directly in front of the sentinel who wasn't fazed much by the shaking.

Leon fired fireballs at the sentinel to try and make it turn around but now that it had a target in sight that couldn't escape he wouldn't switch to another.

Nathan was completely cornered and tried everything to escape but it all didn't faze the sentinel at all.

Just as he was starting to lose hope, a loud voice echoed through the center of the maze. "Stand back, everyone!"

It was Bill and his new plan. Utilizing his earth ability, Bill produced a lot of sand by grinding away all of Leon's unused walls. Using all of that sand, he created a massive sandstorm around the Fire Sentinel, using his sand ability.

The sand completely enveloped the sentinel and blocked any oxygen from coming through. The sentinel tried punching the sand but only a small amount would get displaced which would instantly be covered by more sand and the fire couldn't do much to the sand either as it was a great insulator with a very high melting point.

The sentinel tried again and again, but it grew weaker and weaker as the oxygen depleted within the small sand cocoon.

With a final roar of defeat, the Fire Sentinel collapsed and disintegrated into nothing. Team B had emerged victorious, but they were exhausted and drained from the intense battle.
