Chapter 207: Battle of Beacon (10)

~Salem POV~

*BOOM*

Another explosion out of nowhere suddenly enveloped us once more as this time I saw Watt's own Aura fail and then turned to ash instantly from this bomb.

I screamed.

I screamed, screamed, screamed in agenizing pain I felt.

My everything was felt as if I was being burnt alive but much worse than any attempt of my own life.

I burned myself before and I thought the sudden attack out of nowhere was worse but this…

This felt hundreds of times worse.

But I was the first to witness this new weapon.

From what I witnessed the heat from the explosion is enough to melt stone into lava almost immediately, and the force of the blast is powerful enough to destroy several rock formations capable of surviving military arms testing.

I felt my own immortality is forcibly bringing myself to reform but with each new cell being made only to feel the torturous heat of this weapon as I felt my own nerves to feel the heat being burnt alive the worst as if I felt my own finger tips the most sensitive part of the body in pain but worst.

Feeling my own eyes becoming liquefy to feel the burn as even I couldn't even scream the pain I'm feeling at this moment and witnessing pure destruction around as not even the Grimm around were standing only a moment before they all perished.

How I wonder?

Just how?

The site of the explosion remains incandescent for at least a few minutes after the detonation. The exact distance of the blast radius is currently unknown to me, but it seems to span the distance of several city blocks.

Ahh… I think I feel poison in this explosion but why is there so much potent than the first explosion…

I should know I tried poisoning myself before.

Those who survive this initial explosion will absorb the poison and suffer internal damage, their organs being destroyed by the rapid uptake of the bomb's deadly poison, which is much stronger than other poisons I know…

Ahh!

I screamed but nothing came out as I feel more pain from this explosion as I try to rationalize what is happening to me and this toxin in the air.

The toxin shows to bring a slow and painful death, eating away my body away from the inside out while turning them into poisonous agents themselves… what?

I managed to finally reform my eyes as I see a strange substance in my body apparently leaks like a gas of some kind.

Given the nature of this poison being extremely potent and its chain reaction effect is in effect as any nearby Grimm contacting each other are suddenly dying as if… spreading a disease of sorts.

It is unclear whether the substance is self-replicating within an organism or if its initial quantity remains unchanged and only propagates further. They are propagating a vast chain reaction of casualties.

Who in the world is mad enough to even invent this!

In other words, the poison isn't just lethal; it's also highly contagious. A victim survives long enough to spread the poison to someone else, creating the perfect killing chain. Exposure to the poison can be identified by nose bleeds and/or coughing up blood.

And the pain I feel is unbelievable – oh…

Managing to see something fall from the sky I tried to shoot at it using my magic against it!

*PEW*

But then I was suddenly enveloped again by another more intense bomb dropping on me again.

*BOOOM*

~Third POV~

*Cling*

In another part in Vale a fight was going on with A2 fighting against G. Neo with annoyance both expressed on the two fighters, attention with the intent of each other trying to kill each other.

Twirling her katana sword with G. Neo doing the same activating her Magic with her eyes flaring changing the whole scene in from of A2 into a nightmarish area surrounding everything burning and Grimm crawling around the illusion.

G. Neo examines expressions on A2 seeing no noticeable changes with her smirking at the G. Neo happily, "Ha! Nice nightmare fuel toots but if you think this kind of shit would make me worry?"

*WOOSH*

*BAM*

Slamming her leg on the ceiling they were on causing a spider web crater showing that the illusions would seemingly do nothing to A2, "See? All this illusion tricks ain't mean shit too me girly –"

*Brrr*

Suddenly G. Neo flicked her wrist twirling her Grimm Umbrella weapon summoning up a wave of fire hiding her cruel smirk finally being able to speak via her illusion magic, "No… these little tricks… are more…"

"Ah!"

*BAM*

Not feeling any danger from the illusion of fire coming straight towards A2 but suddenly felt like she was being burnt alive as she quickly her foot with aura enhanced strength dropping the two below the next floor avoiding any damage from the burning.

Feeling her body checking for any signs of damages but shown none yet the phantom pain of being burn is present with G. Neo finally speaking out, "… real to the… senses…"

Immediately rationalizing of G. Neo Illusion Magic A2 grits her teeth in clear annoyance responding back to G. Neo, "Tch. Basically, your little magic can cause phantom pains to the senses making any illusion actions become 'real' enough to feel. No… more like the aura can feel correct?"

G. Neo remains silent not explaining in acceptance or remain silent to keep 2A busy thinking in her head before she reluctantly rolls her shoulders cracking a few metal bones in her system in the process, "Ah… Ok then. Be silent then. All I got to do is basically cut or kill you in the end. This just a major pain in the ass."

G. Neo merely tilted her head at such a response as more nightmarish monsters are coming around above the hole that A2 has created with said android merely expressing a feral grin summoning up another weapon replacing her katana to a sword chainsaw, "Hahahaahaha…. Man… Only master can make me really feel alive… Hahahaahaa!"

*Shiii*

Suddenly like a switch was flipped A2 cyan color aura began to change to a crimson red laughing a bit more hysterically in the process with G. Neo sensing the emotion change due to her Grimm biology to sense negative emotions.

G. Neo sensed great anger and bloodlust coming out from 2A turning on her sword chainsaw grinning sadistically, "Hahahaahaha! Oh, Master I really thank you for letting me out to pull out all the full stops! Especially enhancing my body to focus more on – "

*WOOSH*

Taking enough and not letting A2 do the conventual monologuing power up G. Neo flashed her Illusion Magic making the illusion of a Grimm tentacle coming in to slam the crazy android at her with a force of a train.

Yet…

*BAM*

*Thud*

The attacked slammed A2 to the wall merely laughing like a crazy person gritting G. Neo's nerves not seeing her victim show expression of pain, anguish, or even frustration gripping her weapon tightly seeing A2 not even recognizing the pain of the attack.

Merely…

"HAHAH!"

"Ahhahahaha!"

Laughing crazily as G. Neo senses more and more anger along with bloodlust coming off the android immediately getting out of her own crater off the wall, she stands up dusting off the debris on her much to G. Neo annoyance as A2 speaks to her offhandedly, "Whoa that packs quite the punch. Let me return the favor… by brain fucking you to the wall."

G. Neo took a momentarily pause at this but that was her fatal mistake.

*WOOSH*

*SHEEEEE*

*BAM*

Using her own Semblance <Berserker> A2 can have her aura color changed to a crimson red increasing her base strength at the cost of aura consumption along with being fueled with anger and bloodlust when she's in her berserker state with no provided protection of aura being used.

But the payoff would be worth it in 2A eyes for a great boost in strength and speed.

Hacking and slashing any illusion construct G. Neo threw at her with her sword chainsaw till she finally slammed her hand on G. Neo head gripping it tightly enough for her finger tips to dig into her skull.

G. Neo eyes widen sensing immediate danger doing everything in her power to force A2 to back off with her Grimm Umbrella bashing with it to the head of A2 but nothing made the android to even flinch of the brunt attacks being aimed as she grinned more sadistically of what's about to happen next.

Gripping her hand tighter on G. Neo head forcing to feel pain of being squashed A2 spoke out in eustacy of what she's going to do next, "Listen little girly? What I'm about to do is not child friendly oh no sir it's so not. I want to cut into you and see for myself I want to see… There, on the polished clean wall, sliced up, lined up, and pasted on the wall?"

G. Neo eyes widen at the implications as she tried even harder to escape even creating all fire or ice constructs to kill A2, but she merely grinned ending with saying, "Well… let's see how about we paint the walls black and red? Eh girly?"

*WOOSH*

*BAM*

Left no choice G. Neo was suddenly having her head bashed onto the wall with A2 griping it and using her speed to make her head become Swiss cheese grading her face pieces by pieces into flesh matter revealing the bone in the room with A2 running faster and faster seeing how little of G. Neo head is left with a smile on her face.

The more she runs the less there is of G. Neo head before it becomes a large mess with her brain matter showing in pieces with A2 dropping the dead enemy on the floor lifting her leg up speaking to herself happily, "By god… I do love this job."

*THUD*

*SPALT*

Slamming her foot on the remains of G. Neo head splatting like a watermelon revealing eye balls and remains left with A2 seeing the illusion end turning around with her sword chainsaw skipping about happily speaking to herself, "Ah…! One enemy gone and now I have plenty of Grimm to take out my pent-up emotion~ Master really is too good for me to let loose~"

Skipping happily twirling her sword chainsaw ready to hunt down more Grimm to help Jack's cause saving people.

Just as A2 tries to save the many lives happening all around her more drones produced by the Future Foundation are being made to be used to see the heroic actions of their company helping everyone they could.
