53 053 New Order II

Michelle continues to press an attack, she didn't give her opponent the chance to retaliate she also noticed that her enemy has more battle experience than her judging by the way her attack was being dodged and neutralized she smiles she knew this is a chance for her to improve herself, but she didn't forget about her mission she knew she had to end the battle soon, and joins her brother and sisters in the Web.

Mikhail frowns, as the battle progressed he can tell that the girl in front of him lacks battle experience, at least compared to him, she is a bit lacking but because she is much faster and stronger than him, so he can only passively defend himself. He can also tell that the girl is improving fast by using him as a whetstone.

This frustrates him a little, he knew that if things remain as they stand it is only a matter of time before he lost. But he also knew he can't act recklessly. He has been into many life and death situations, and he has been through worse.

Michelle was now double equipping, among the Shadow Units only she and Dove were able to completely master it, controlling a flexible sword in one hand and a gun in another is very hard.

She remembers how much she suffers just to be able to use the flexible sword without getting hurt, she focuses on her opponent, and She can tell the gap between their battle experience she knew he was just waiting for her to make a small mistake. But who trained her? Ever since she decided to become a Shadow Agent, she has been sparing with two monsters on a daily basis for the last few months and her teacher Ruby and Jem has taught them how to exploit the weakness of their enemies. Especially those that are much stronger than them.

Michelle looks at Mikhail with a glint in her eyes. She first fires her silent gun and follows it with a quick lunge with her flexible sword, this is her favorite attack combination.

Mikhail quickly saw the attack, his opponent is a few times faster than him and so even though he has more experience in battle the best he can do is parry and barely dodge his opponent's attack.

He noticed the gun pointing at him, he dodges instinctively, his body moving even before his mind tell it to. This is called a battle instinct, and only those who as been to countless battles and experienced many life and death situations will be able to acquire this skill.

This skill is also the reason he was able to survive this long in this battle, where his opponents are several times faster and stronger than him.

As he dodges the laser gun a snake-like sword was already upon him, Mikhail knew there was no dodging this sudden attack he has to take one of the attacks, a laser attack can quickly disable him, so he chooses the sword but when he looks at his opponent's face he knew he falls into a trap.

but it was too late to do anything so gritted his teeth and brace for the attack he used both his arm as a shield he was equipped with an armguard it was not much, but he thinks it was enough to mitigate most of the damage. Crossing his arm to block.

But as the flexible sword hit his armguard, he knew he made a big mistake...

Michelle saw that her opponent chooses her sword instead of the laser she knew she already won the fight, so she smiles, and sure enough, the moment her sword hit the armguard in her opponent's arm it didn't receive any resistance it immediately pierces though his opponent's arms like a hot knife to butter and with a quick shake his opponent's arms were severed.

Mikhail watches as both his arms are being severed, he was flabbergasted by how sharp the sword is. The snake-like sword didn't stop after severing his arm it went for his heart, as the sword pierced through his arm his battle instinct took over using the small delay when his arm is being severed he quickly jumps back to avoid his heart of head being impaled.

It saves his life, but he knew he lost the fight.

As soon as he landed, he knelt down to stop the blood from flowing by contacting the muscle on his arm. The pain is overwhelming, but he quickly suppressed it so none of it can be seen on his face, only a quick twitch of his eyes tells the pain he was having.

"You win," said Mikhail he knows he lost and lost miserably at that, he wasn't even able to hit his opponents once, it can be said as he received a massive beat down.

Michelle saw how Mikhail manage to stop the bleeding and was a little surprised that kind of body control is beyond his current self, but she didn't show it on her face.

"I know," Michelle said with a slight smile

"Who are you guys?" asked Mikhail with a rasped voice, it shows how much pain he is enduring despite not showing it on his face.

"No need to try and buy time, you have two seconds to decide whether you want to live or die," said, Michelle not wasting time.

He sighs, "I surrender," said Mikhail he needs to live he still has to protect the Head

"Good choice, open your mouth, and do not resist." Said, Michelle

Mikhail obeys and opens his mouth, Michelle, then tosses a pill in his mouth, It is a special rank 5 pills it has a suppressive and paralyzing effect, and even those from Shadow Units cannot resist it affects only someone like Ruby and Jem can resist it...

Mikhail immediately felt the effect at first he thought with his enhancement he will be able to resist any poison or medicine given to him, he was trained for that after all, he couldn't even count how many poisons he ingested himself, his plan is to pretend to be poisoned or incapacitated and look for a way to escape later.

Again he was very much mistaken, the moment the pills enter his mouth it immediately dissolves, and he felt a restrictive force in his body like he was being chained down by tons of weights he couldn't even move a finger his whole body was paralyzed, his enhancement allows him to suppress the pain, as well as stop the bleeding from his severed arm but because of the suppressive pills, he lost control of his body. His body began to convulse because of the sudden pain. And because of the paralyzing effect of the pill, he couldn't even scream. The only good news is that the pill also stop the bleeding on his arm.

Michelle looked at the pale face of Mikhail and smiled. Of course, she knew what he was thinking she can only smile at his misfortune for she knew there was no resisting that binding pill, she quickly ties him up along with his severed arms and carries him on her shoulders, originally she plans to leave him behind and catch up with the rest of the shadow unit, but Eve tells her to bring him along. So she did...

Dove quickly arrived at the entrance of the Web, she saw the rest of the Shadow Units but didn't see Michelle she was about to ask when she receives an update from Eve and found out what happens, so she just smiles in envy of Michelle meeting good opponents, she walks into the door, opens it and enters...

As Dove opened the door she was greeted by the sound of discussion from the people inside the Web which quickly died down when she enters she looks around all attention is on her, and the shadow unit immediately spread around the Web.

"Hello there guys, how have you been?" Ask Dove with a smile on her face.

That was supposed to be Jem's line but since they are not here she can't resist the temptation of mimicking her...
