Chapter 751 Proof of Power
As soon as the three creatures were free, they moved with as much speed as they could muster, attacking the three enemies without mercy.",
Vicente promised them he would let them go as long as they won this contest. Having no choice but to believe the man who had ordered Torne to kidnap them the day before, they used their most vicious moves to attack the two humans and the armor fighting independently.
As their hearts trembled, the two men acted, with the one wearing the armor being moved at first by the armor's will, while the other was nervous at the sight of the Dark Scorpion attacking him.
Feeling his heart pound, the man holding the rifle pressed his finger three times on the trigger of his weapon, firing towards the creature's head.
Even though he was very nervous, he managed to aim right at the beast's weak points, before being surprised not only by the power of the shots, but by the speed of everything.
In just a second, three bullets left his rifle, crossing the space between him and the scorpion before penetrating the creature's head.
After shooting the monster, the man holding the 4th grade rifle saw the monster's body lose its vital signs, before rolling on the ground, moving like a derailed train.
The 4th stage armor, with no one fighting beside it, used its magnetic manipulation ability to act against the 4th stage Lamia, forcing an electromagnetic field against the creature.
The Lamia tried to fly, but her wings folded unnaturally, while a powerful force drove her towards the ground.
But despite being restrained like this, the hideous creature was not immobilized or defeated. She opened her mouth and let out a long, shrill scream, causing several of the Sovereigns watching the fight to cover their ears as they felt dizzy.
With the end of the armor and Lamia fight, the 91 Sovereigns saw the 5th stage armor and the 4th stage armor starting to cultivate to recover their lost mana, while Vicente stood up from his iron chair.
"You saw what a difference it was to combine a lower stage magician with a higher stage robotic armor. The result would have been better if someone of the same level as the armor had combined with one of them, but we don't have enough armor for everyone. It will be better to use them in the way I've already explained."
"We understand, Senior Fuller. Don't worry, we won't let our selfish sides impede our plans to deal with the monsters. I believe that everyone here would rather defeat the damned creatures that have taken over our kingdom than have the glory of killing many enemies just by wearing one armor," one elder of those Sovereigns commented.
"Yes."
They all agreed simultaneously.
"Very well. Let's distribute the 5th stage armors among Sky Sovereigns and the 4th stage firearms among Earth Sovereigns and High-level Mages. The 4th stage armor should be worn by High-level Mages," Vicente said, as those men felt eager to use their new tools against monsters on the battlefield.
It will always be important to have Sky Sovereigns in the city or at outposts. So just because there were few 5th stage armors didn't mean that there would be a big scramble for them. It wasn't possible for all the strongest people in the city to constantly go out and use their artifacts.
Since only a handful of experts could go out onto the battlefield, the current numbers were actually sufficient. Besides, not everyone there was a warrior, although they were willing to serve as one in times of need.
Vicente told the men to prepare for their departure at dawn, when he would lead the retaking of territory up to 30 kilometers from the borders of Dresbert.
Tomorrow he would begin to establish Dresbert's safety zone, where the local agricultural fields could return to the control of magicians to feed the city's population.
With this current plan, continuing with the construction of the railroad and communicating with nearby towns would become much easier!
