Limitless The Strongest Revenant-Chapter 1060: My one and only warning [1/2]
There was nothing more exhilarating than the opening moment in combat. The adrenaline from diving into the chaos of combat was addictive. It was a drug that made one feel alive. The primal urge to beat the crap out of something called to me.
[All forces, prepare for maneuver "Bash the loli." Your targets have been marked. Time until execution: 4 seconds…]
"{REINFORCE}! [PRIDE'S SHIELD] GO ROBYN!!!"
"HEHEHE! [SHOOTING STAR]! GO! GO! GO JAIL BAIT!"
"[Crimson Festival]! [Kitsune's Prayer] target: Robyn! [Gluttony's Knives]. [Ethereal]. [Executioner]."
"THANKS! [LOLI POWERED]! [MAESTRO]! LET'S DANCE YOU FUCKING NIGGERS!"
"[Seraphim]."
"Children set the table. {Portal}. Aegis Division, come to me! [To Arms]! Terminate all who oppose us!"
"[Tiamat's descent]. [Greed's Babylon]. [Queen's Stiletto]. Do not miss the timing, everyone."
[…1 Operation start!]
Of course, my girls were probably the same. All of a sudden, they all began invoking {Programs} that altered the combat situation in our favor. Exa, who probably knew that it would be good to be aware of what was going on, added a new feature to her prompts.
[{Reinforce} buff received. Damage absorption for 48 megajoules of kinetic energy has been applied.]
[Pride's Shield received. Absolute Invulnerability for one attack applied.]
[Shooting Star buff received. Morale raised. Berserk status applied. Duration: 600 seconds. ]
[Crimson festival buff received. Pain sensitivity reduced by 90% for 600 seconds. All attacks within the blood fog will passively restore stamina.]
[You have been designated as a priority target for the defensive protocol Seraphim.]
The number of souls that suddenly covered our army would terrify most people. Yet this was how my army planned to fight forward. Despite only Aki being an Enhancer, my girls all did whatever they could just to gain the advantage. Even embrace practices of another battlefront.
As my group was meant to fight outnumbered and outgunned, they came up with attack patterns. One such tactic was what the girls called "Bash the loli". Naturally the approach centered on Robyn. And today was the first time it was to be executed.
"Later, Possum! [Overclock]! {Blink}!"
In a fleeting second, Robyn left our side and appeared on top of the table. The Africans all were waiting for their leader's command. Unlike us, they had to rely on words. So, in the five seconds since we arrived, Tshilumba had yet to make a move. He only watched.
Maybe he was confident in his strength. Whatever the reason was, it hardly mattered. What did matter was that they delayed their reaction by a few seconds. And against us, that small gap meant the difference between victory and defeat.
With a savage smile, my Kitten raised her hand as she roared, "[WRATH'S DOMAIN]!"
A slight shockwave went through the air. The Specters around her suddenly all fell to their knees. All the souls in Robyn's immediate vicinity surged towards her like a vacuum. My Aussie lover then swung her hand down in a punch.
"[HELLCAT BASHHHHHH]!!!!!!!"
With lightning-fast movement, my kitten drove her fist toward the table. A powerful explosion detonated and chaotically sent up dust, wind, and debris. Shockwaves and tremors made both the air and ground quake. As if thrown around by a fucking hurricane, the Specters were blown away.
The kinetic energy of that one punch was far stronger than a 155 mm howitzer. The power from my Kitten came from her soulgear's new abilities and my harem's support. Specters were not weak. But my kitten's new abilities were just that terrifying.
I recalled the details from Exa's descriptions of the new Siren {Programs} and the soulgear upgrades Robyn had.
___
Rhiannon (Robyn Lithgow-Smith)
Soulgear: {Fade} (Elliot Poole)
Lvl 5: {Abduct} - Sends targets to the energy realm. (New)
Lvl 6: {Empower} - Removes the limit on energy drawn from the energy realm. (New)
(New) {Programs}
[Hellcat Bash]
- Gathers and combines energy from the energy realm and soul. Then exponentially raises its gravity footprint. Creates a devastating attack that manifests as kinetic force. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
[Loli Powered]
- Empowers the physical body of the caster with energy from another realm.
[Wrath's Domain] (Sin Series 03)
- Creates an anti-soul field that absorbs both souls and stamina from everyone in the field.
___
Essentially, Robyn could now draw unlimited power from the energy realm. This allowed her to boost her body's capabilities to those equal to a descendant. Her new trump card [Hellcat Bash] was the successor to [Kitty Punch].
If that was not enough, even without actually ascending to the level of a Specter, Robyn has already created a limit field by using her {Program}.
"Anyway, the two schools of thought for Chasers are Limit and Infinity. Limit Chasers develop bodies immune to soul. Simply put, their mere presence causes {fates} to be suppressed. Only {Fates} that affect your body would still work."
Carlos' lecture told me that Robyn was on her way to become an Infinity Chaser. That was why her body was weak. But my Aussie hellcat turned that notion on its head. She created a limit field while aiming to be an Infinity Chaser. As always, Robyn's combat senses were monstrous.
[Alert: "Bash the loli" achieved. All teams, engage your targets.]
I then saw Robyn quickly lunge for the Specter with the floating number "4" on his head. Naturally, the floating numbers were something only Hellsend could see. It was how Exa marked our targets like a game.
"[2nd Wind]! Time to dance, cunt! {Abduct}!"
My kitten then drew her body back and raised her foot. Her flying kick drove her heel into the Specter's face. Immediately after, both Robyn and her opponent vanished.
While it was a good tactic, Robyn told me that she couldn't keep people in the energy realm. They were eventually spat back out. Sadly, such tricks could not take down specters.
[Rhiannon Squad, follow the markers I have placed.]
At Exa's words, the Vithriss and Seraphs, part of Robyn's support, all raced to the left. They followed the marker that was moving in real time. But it was not just them. Before the clouds of dust could even settle, the rest of my forces acted as well.
This was because "Bash the loli" had one goal: to split up strong targets that were close together. I could see that the Specters were now separated by at least fifty meters. Still in human form. With Robyn gone, the limit field that prevented them from fighting back disappeared.
"Beloved, may the fortunes of war be upon you," Liv bid farewell. My Northerner then roared like a lunatic as she ran forward. "IN THE NAME OF LIMITLESS! [GLADIATOR]! [ASURA VALKYRIE]! [VALIANT'S REARM]! [HONOR'S ADVANCE]!"
Liv abruptly shone and turned into a 15-foot, six-armed giant. Then she manifested her weapons and leaped towards her target like a pouncing lion. The Specter shook his head and saw my Northerner coming. Liv raised her shield and crashed into the Specter like a freight train, sending him flying.
The Specter tumbled for a good 50 feet before getting back up on his feet. He then partially changed his right arm into a long appendage like a sword with teeth like a saw. Liv, undaunted, ignored him and attacked him as she closed in.
"{Ripcut}!"
The Specter then invoked a {Fate} and suddenly sliced Liv in two halves from face to groin. Normally, this would be where I lost my shit. But knowing how Liv's combat tactics now worked, I knew why she allowed the attack. She even used my discipline to {Dope} from the damage.
It was a devious trap my beloved came up with from watching Jo and Aki. Convinced of his victory, the Specter breathed a sigh of relief. Only his nightmare was only just beginning. The two halves of Liv didn't fall or bleed. Instead, they suddenly sprouted their missing leg.
And then attacked the Specter.
"What?!" Dumbfounded, the African received Faker rounds from behind.
The halves then regenerated the other missing parts, becoming two Asuras. Fully armed with Liv's weapons. Liv showed no mercy. She used both of her bodies to pummel the Specter. She fired 40mm grenades and 10-gauge Fakers. Then, she attacked with her Faker sword and shield.
Both of the Asura's had their hair ablaze like fire goddesses and roared in loud voice.
"{COUNTER}!" x2
Liv used the pain from being cut in two to strike back hard at the unaware reaper. He finally transformed into his full soulform. It resembled a shark with saw-like limbs. But it didn't matter. Remembering Liv's details, I couldn't help but comment.
'Fighting just one of her was already hard. Try doing it with two. And if he slices up Liv a third time, he will need to deal with three. How absolutely ridiculous.'

___
While Liv was a Keeper, she used buffs, transformed her body, and summoned. Her combat style was something few could match. She could shrug off every blow. But she wanted to beat a Specter on her own. So, she let herself get hurt all to kill them with counterattacks.
