Transmigrated as a Ghost

Chapter 990 990 Battle Against the Colossal Robot (3)

With the situation having changed, everyone in the expedition squad's strike force rushed towards the colossal robot. They only had a couple minutes left before Miguel's unique skill faded and left them in no condition to continue fighting. It was time for them all to unleash their strongest attacks in a final bid for victory.

To start things off Marcus took out another of his one-time use explosive adamantine javelins and launched it at the colossal robot. His last strike had done decent damage and he wanted to draw the robot's attention towards himself to make it easier for the others to approach.

Unfortunately, his previous attack was a bit too successful, and the colossal robot had identified Marcus' javelins as its greatest threat.

The moment he threw his second javelin, the colossal robot focused most of its guns on the projectile and aimed to shoot it out of the air.

It was unable to fully stop the javelin with its weapons, yet, just before Marcus' weapon impacted, in a feat of speed that its size should have made impossible, the colossal robot swatted the javelin with its left arm.

The javelin exploded on impact, but the damage it caused was far less than the first one since it did not pierce into the colossal robot this time. 

Marcus could only grit his teeth when he saw this and threw his next javelin. At the very least he had garnered most of the colossal robot's attention even if he wasn't causing as much damage as he had expected.

Of course, the next javelin received just as much attention as the last one, but now the robot was targeting Marcus, and by association Miguel and Mrazivý who were next to him.

His third javelin failed to do any lasting damage and a barrage of bullets, rockets, and grenades rained down on Marcus and his team members.

'Don't protect or heal me. I have a unique skill I can only use once I have taken a certain amount damage. With it I should be able to deal some major damage.' Miguel said over telepathy.

Reluctantly Marcus withdrew his support at Miguel's request. He remembered the power Miguel had used during their match all those years ago and figured that this was what Miguel was talking about. 

Nevertheless, a wall of explosions and bullets blocked their way towards the colossal robot, and while it normally would have taken less than a second for any of them to close the three-hundred-meter gap between them, it was proving difficult for them to get close enough to unleash their attacks.

For several seconds they rushed forwards and backwards trying to find a path towards their target, but with little success. At least not until a single attack changed the course of the battle.

Earlier Fianna had fired a single arrow that contained the power of one of her unique skills.

As the arrow fell on the colossal robot it quickly split apart and multiplied until there were a thousand arrows raining down.

This was the power of Fianna's unique skill called Single Arrow Volley.

The arrows pierced into eh colossal robot and all at once several of its exterior guns and grenade launchers were either destroyed or damaged to the point of not being usable.

Overall, the attack had not done a particularly great amount damage, but it had heavily weakened its offensive capabilities.

'Let's see you block this now.'

Taking advantage of this chance, Marcus pulled out his last adamantine javelin and tossed it directly towards the colossal robot's nearly reattached leg.

It attempted to block Marcus' javelin, but with its diminished fire power, the colossal robot failed to stop the attack.

A powerful shockwave ripped through the barely attached leg and tore it back off.

The colossal robot collapsed one again and at the same time the other teams that had been under less fire finally reached their target.

Cassius was the first to attack and used a unique skill called Ceaseless Onslaught to turn himself into a relentless storm of devastating sword attacks.

Following him Kollo raised her top tier adamantine war axe and the powerful weapon erupted in size until it was ten times larger.

She then jumped up and jammed her weapon into the right shoulder of the colossal robot in an attempt to disable one its arms.

Surprisingly the next to attack was from Evette who lacked any sort of martial skills.

However, she had a Supreme Skill called Spirit Sapping Chains that she almost never used but had determined that the situation was dire enough for her to go all out.

Evette slammed her hands into the ground right at the colossal robot's reaming leg and ghastly looking spectral chains erupted from the ground.

These horrid chains quickly wrapped themselves around their target and began to drag down the colossal robot despite its immense strength.

Normally this Supreme Skill would have eaten away at the souls of anything it had ensnared, but against a robot they only acted as binding.

Still, it was immensely beneficial for the others and allowed them to focus on their attacks instead of having to worry about being struck by the colossal robot.

Several others wailed on their singular enemy and quickly the heavy armor that had been protecting the colossal robot was stripped away.

Finally, Marcus, Mrazivý, and Miguel were the last three to arrive due to having taken the most fire.

"Valorous Comeback!"

Leading the charge and racked with injuries, Miguel activated the first heroic unique skill he had received along with his blessing.

In an instant all the damage he had received was healed and he was bathed in an even greater golden glow. This was a skill meant to turn the tides of a battle and deliver one last strike.

Miguel jumped up towards the colossal robot's chest and with a wide slash carved deeply into its armor plating.

His attack failed to reach the core of the mechanical monstrosity, but that had never been his goal. He had fully filled his role in weaking its defenses.

"Behemoth Charge."

Right behind him, Marcus had his staff raised and slammed into the area where Miguel had sliced through the armor using his most recently acquired unique skill.

The single use attack skill that could only be activated once a day, pack a greater punch than Marcus had imagined, and his blow caved in the inner armor and revealed the colossal robot's power core.

It tried to struggle to prevent its most vital component from being destroyed, but its limbs were all damaged to the point of being inoperable and most of its weapons had been destroyed.

"It is time to finish this." 

"Dragon Thrust."

After Miguel and Marcus had opened up the colossal robot's chest, Mrazivý delivered the finishing blow.

Using her Supreme Skill, she had focused all of her power into the tip of her sword and jammed it into the colossal robot's power core.

The intense power behind her attack entirely annihilated the exposed power core.

A massive hole burst out of the colossal robot's back and its power core shattered into millions of pieces and flew off into the distance.

Without the energy needed to power itself and many of its core systems damaged, the colossal robot ceased movement and collapsed for good.
