73 Small but mighty Minotaur
"Protect the children," Sebas yelled, an explosion under his foot scattering debris everywhere. He rushed forward to engage the two enemy supassers, the further they were, the better.
Amidst the hundreds of evolvers in front, Bian and Man Tian split up to decimate their numbers.
Bian walked towards the Devon trio and spoke in a calm voice, "Stay here." He summoned the Holy Angel and Tyrant Minotaur to guard them.
The Emperor Manticore was still evolving and couldn't be used. The Holy Angel stood at their side while the Tyrant Minotaur moved forward to engage any enemy.
Two hooded figures rushed forward, aiming for Man Tian and Bian. They summoned sacred-blood swords, clearly possessing decent physiques.
"I guess it's you and me again," Bian summoned the black-fanged snake dagger, his only decent weapon. It was a super weapon from the first sanctuary which he made berserk in his free time, now it was on par with sacred-blood weapons from the second sanctuary.
He flashed forward, his opponent decapitated in a single blow. Man Tian darted like a bullet, his fist blowing up the opponent's head. Blood and brain matter scattered.
Seeing this, the more than a hundred groups of evolvers were shocked by their power.
"Tch, they are quite strong."
"Should we use that?"
"They're all going to die, let's do it!"
All the hooded figures on the roofs resembled assassins, raised a strange syringe and injected themselves.
"Argh!" Accompanied by guttural screams, red horns grew from their foreheads.
"Shura? What is going on?" Man Tian said in surprise. Mark, Tinker, and Vincent had never seen a Shura, but they knew something was wrong.
"Don't think too much about it. Fight and kill!" Bian rushed forward into their midst, killing them wantonly. Their increase in physique didn't faze him one bit.
"Ora Ora Ora!" Man Tian stood his ground, delivering devastating consecutive blows. Each blow sent out an invisible energy towards the hooded figures, knocking them back and sometimes killing them.
"Reinforcements, reinforcements are here."
More hooded figures rushed to join the fray, keeping both Bian and Man Tian occupied.
Suddenly, a tall figure with a physique no less than that of Man Tian darted through the crowds at incredible speeds.
He brought up the syringe and injected his arm.
"Arghh!" Accompanied by his screams, his 2.2-meter-tall frame grew to 2.5 meters, blood-red horns sprouted from his head.
His body glistened like golden metal, and endless energy seemed to surge through his veins.
"It's Big Tom!"
"They're done for now."
"His super diamond body makes him invincible in the Second God Sanctuary."
Tyrant Minotaur rushed forward to engage the hulking giant. Compared to Big Tom, who stood at 2.5 meters, the Minotaur was several heads shorter at 1.5 meters.
Man Tian looked over worriedly, but Bian placated him before he made any rash decisions.
"Focus on your battle, my pet isn't weak," Bian said while dismembering several opponents.
Big Tom swung his arm back, a spiked gauntlet enclosed his fist, he delivered a full-power punch, a faint elephant rumble could be heard.
"Elephant Disk Strike!"
Tyrant Minotaur reciprocated the move with pure muscle, a battle cry shaking the battlefield.
Boom!
The two suppressors, who had been entangled by Sebas, happened to look over at this moment. A short Minotaur and a giant human exchanged blows.
The giant human was blown to bits, leaving only his lower torso active.
"Where do you think you're looking?" Sebas dashed forward with a feint punch, only to deliver a Muay Thai kick to one of the suppressors.
His leg instantly bent in the wrong direction. He muffled a scream and held Sebas by his collar, his partner was quick to deliver a retaliatory blow.
Sebas blocked this attack, half of his clothes were torn off, revealing his muscular frame underneath.
"Kill him!" The suppressors with the broken leg yelled, together with the other suppressor, they continued their assault.
Bian could only smile at their misfortune, physical strength was the domain of the weaponless Minotaur.
He quickly realized that these guys were still way below the level of super creatures.
"Join the fight!" With a simple word from Bian, the Tyrant Minotaur, which had been guarding, instantly joined the assault on the robed figures.
Swords, spears, and arrows had no effect on its black fur.
"Whoa, what is this feeling?" Bian was awe-struck.
To his left, Man Tian decimated enemies with his fists. Every casual blow sent half a dozen people flying, and focused punches directly ended their lives.
The Tyrant Minotaur did the same, using its fists to pulverize the opponents.
This is how a real man should fight, with his bare-handed fists. Bian felt his blood boiling.
He unsummoned the black-fanged snake dagger and raised his fists.
Seeing the skillful assassin put away his dagger to fight barehanded, dozens of evolvers rushed toward him.
Unlike Man Tian and the Tyrant Minotaur, Bian didn't have bulging muscles. His muscles were well-proportioned with his body.
The evolvers obviously saw this as a sign of weakness. The nearest person drew his blade and made an arc towards Bian's neck.
POW! With a single punch infused with yang energy, the evolver's head was smashed into bits. Hot blood rushed out like a fountain.
Bian evolved with a super body, coupled with the super genes he had acquired and jadeskin; his strength wasn't something they could match even with the shura transforming liquid which greatly enhanced them.
Bian darted through his opponents, employing yin-yang fist to slaughter them like chickens.
"Tian blow!" Man Tian released a devastating blow that traveled more than a hundred meters, obliterating anything in its path, be it people or buildings.
Roar! The Minotaur released a war cry and slammed the pavement into powder, the shockwaves stunning ten evolvers before they were brutally smashed by the Minotaur.
Looking at their over two-hundred forces, which had been reduced to less than twenty, the two suppressors panicked.
"Stall him, I'll end those kids quickly," the surpasser with a broken leg and other major injuries darted forward.
Sebas, who was about to give chase, was intercepted by the other surpasser. With gritted teeth, he fought more recklessly than ever. A surpasser, even an injured one, was far stronger than any evolver.
The injured suppressor, Bezo, made a beeline towards Mark, only to find the Holy Angel standing in his way.
"Get lost!" With a swing of his arm, the super Holy Angel was sent flying like a ragdoll.
"Blame your bad luck, you ran into me, Bezo," Bezo raised his arm, and terrific amounts of energy gathered into his clenched fist.
This was one of his ultimate moves, even weak suppressors couldn't withstand the blow. He planned to take the three kids out at once.
Roar! The Tyrant Minotaur threw itself between Mark and Bezo.
Boom! It was sent through thousands of meters of concrete, creating a one-kilometer-long dash on the ground.
By then, Bian and Man Tian had arrived, the rest of the evolvers dead and wasted. With a click of his tongue, Bezo limped on one leg and executed a powered roundhouse kick using only one leg.
A sharp energy projectile flew towards Bian faster than a bullet. The lightning rune surfaced in his mind, time seemed to slow to a crawl, and Bian narrowly avoided the energy slash.
It traveled for miles, passing through buildings and objects alike. The tops of those buildings fell smoothly, just seeing this was enough to give Bian cold sweat.
"Tian punch!" Man Tian released an energy punch, and the sonic barrier broke with a loud boom as it traveled at the speed of sound. Bezo had a scoff on his face, leaped to the side, avoiding the attack.
Suddenly he turned around and released a punch, the Holy Angel flew towards him like a ghost. She quickly blocked his attack with the diamond sword, but was sent flying like a rocket, her diamond sword sporting a light crack.
Bezo turned around to counter another punch from Man Tian, only to be hit by Bian who had also snuck up on him.
"You damned brats!" Bezo yelled, releasing a large burst of energy that sent everyone flying. He set his eyes on Mark, Tinker, and Vincent.
ROAAAAR! A bone-chilling roar came from the distance, causing Bezo to freeze for a moment. Sebas and the other suppressor looked over also looked over.
A black minotaur with black energy oozing out of it rushed over at a speed greatly beyond that of an evolver.
'Is it alright?' Bian had a connection with the Minotaur, it was barely running on fumes right now. He had half a mind to unsummon it, if not for the dire situation he found himself in.
Bezo was shocked only for a moment, in an instant the Tyrant Minotaur was at his front, a punch coated in black energy aiming for his face.
Bezo casually dodged the punch and retaliated with a punch to the minotaur's abdomen.
The colour on his face instantly drained, the first time he punched the minotaur, it felt like a soft pillow. Now, it felt like he punched a solid rock. A formally fractured bone in his pinky shattered completely upon impact.
His trials weren't over yet as Man Tian and the Holy Angel attacked from the front and back.
He used a back kick to send the Holy Angel flying and he smacked Man Tian away. He was put in an awkward sposition for just a second, a second was all Bian needed.
With the time dilation attribute of the lightning rune, Bian didn't miss this chance. His skin simmered like jade as he launched a double fist assault on Bezo's leg.
The damaged leg, became utterly mangled and unusable. Bezo yelled in pain, his judgements clouded by his anger.
"Bezo! finish off those brats" the other suppressor yelled, injuries from head to toe made him a bloody mess. He had to give his all to hold Sebas, who on the other hand was relatively unharmed.
"Once Sebas wins the battle, its game over for you" Mark said to Bezo.
To his surprise, Bezo instantly regained his cool. His calm eyes drifted between Mark, Tinker and Vincent.
'I will kill those brats even if I lose my life' Bezo made up his mind to solely focus on the trio at any cost.
