Temporal Pearls

Chapter 354 New Title

Seth had no choice but to immediately drop his Staff, which defended him against two more bullets while the third one hit him.

By holding it, he has seeped enough force in it for automatic movement around him and close to him.

He no longer has the luxury of having it be far away.

His aura control mastery has aided him now he felt the force was an extension of himself.

Which allowed him to make the force to permeate all the armour which in turn allowed easy movement.

Not just easy movement but literally, he was stronger and faster than his base stats of 39 points. Perhaps, 2 times stronger which means he has 78 points in all attributes except dexterity.

This allowed him to keep up passively, but the armour was better than that as he could pour more physique force inside it and, in turn, increased his strength and speed.

But, Major Physique Force was not unlimited. It was being consumed and not to mention his stamina was reducing.

The saving grace was something he had: Brain Force. Which allows him to have impeccable control of his movements and the armour as a large.

Just now he just docked away from the shining blade, but the man was fast as he suddenly appeared beside him with a stab.

The tip of the blade glowing, Seth was too slow to dodge, but before the tip stabbed the armour, the very location became hardened and heavy.

Clang!

Seth has poured more Physique Force there and made the location increasingly durable, but even with that, there was a crack in the armour.

This battle was fast and Seth was on the losing end.

[Stamina below 10]

[Exertion Points will be used]

The Exertion Points, too, were being used fast, and several cuts were appearing on his armour. His force was so low that he couldn't control its output at all.

Fling!

A bullet came at the staff and it was flung away. The store force inside has been used off. Seth can sense it but not enough to have meaningful control.

Bang!

Bang!

Several bullets slammed at Seth's body and he was embedded inside the wall. Each bullet rammed was like an extremely strong fist on his body.

Bang!

Bang!

What was worse was the shock wave that was passing through his body, rattling his muscles and bones.

The tremor has already caused a lot of cracks to spread across his bones.

[The title has come with all-encompassing Force: Rayna]

Seth didn't feel anything, though; he was still in pain and was dizzy.

When the blade user made a move again, he seemed to be using something in tandem with his blade.

His blade seemed sharper and faster; this time, he went for the neck. The blade went through the strong hardened armour, reached his neck and dug deeper.

The blade was immediately cracked but it had cut Seth's neck to his bone.

Boom!

Seth made his blood explode, and that made the blade shatter and also fling the man back even though his force field had protected him.

The cave shook and red mist filled the space.

As for Seth, his neck was bent to the side, the wound on his neck torn open, and the place looked scorched and lacked blood.

Another thing was he was embedded more inside the cave wall as if he had been hammered repeatedly.

[Health: Fatal Neck Injury]

Seth was losing his mind, his consciousness was slipping away.

He immediately undone the Shifting Armour. His body slumped down, and his head tilted back to normal.

He can't breathe as the cut has reached his throat and windpipe. But he was still alive.

Bang!

Bullets came toward him, but as they passed through the red mist, their potency reduced while also the impact on him seemed to have been reduced considerably by another force.

Seth fell to his knees and his hand touched his staff that had rolled back to him.

'I'm not one. I'm me and my Staff is me!' Seth thought in a delirious state.

Bang!

A bullet slammed at his head, and he was jerked back. He blanked away for a second before he woke up.

'How!'

He was surprised that his head didn't explode.

Bang!

Another attack to his head which he immediately activated Shifting Armour.

Seth sat, his feet planted on the floor and his staff in between. While his hands raised, holding the staff, and his head bent down, protected by the hand.

'Rayna. What is Rayna?' He wondered but his mind couldn't focus, let alone think properly.
