The two ships had left from the swampy planet, and onboard one of them was Archer[Quinn] and the original crew that had come with him. Jesk the gorilllike beast, was also moving along with them but chose to stay on the far end of the ship.
The others guessed that it was due to whatever Archer[Quinn] was doing because even now, he was still going through the steps. Ronsten, who had been keeping an eye on him, knew that Archer[Quinn] was most likely in the final stages. The energy previously surrounding Archer[Quinn] was no longer present, but instead, Archer[Quinn] himself was the one that was bursting with energy.
"We just went through the space station and are now heading towards the vampire settlement, and he's still like that? We can't join the fight if he remains in this state." Viscount Norvic said.
The Damian[Earl] agreed. In the worst case, they would have to hover around the planet until Archer[Quinn] was done because they had no clue what he was doing right now or whether any interruption would disturb him.
Because of this, the group agreed to wait patiently while the fifth family continued going forward. They had reached the outside of the planet, and Archer[Quinn] still wasn't done with whatever it was that he was doing.
Eventually, all the vampires started to watch the broadcast shown in the settlement. It fueled their bodies with anger, and they were wondering what to do.
"We have to go help!" Norvic shouted once he saw the large three appear.
Damian[Earl] tightened his fist and struggled to decide what to do, but when he turned around, he suddenly noticed that Archer[Quinn] had stood up and was looking at his own arms as if they were foreign to him.
[100 per cent of the Crystal has been absorbed]
[System is In the process of being upgraded]
There were multiple messages in front of Archer[Quinn], but before he checked them all out, he wanted to know if Kenobi[Ray] was back.
'Kenobi[Ray]...are you there?' Archer[Quinn] asked.
There was silence; it was a long shot, but he was hoping since Kenobi[Ray] was in the system, with all the power he had absorbed, maybe it had brought a small part of the latter back.
'I am...but don't focus on me…look at the screen, you idiot. Your people, they need you right now.' Kenobi[Ray] replied.
Looking at the screen that was in the room with them, Archer[Quinn] could see exactly what was going on.
"Please update me on the situation, " Archer[Quinn] asked.
He didn't have time to check the system's messages as Ronsten began to relay all the information about what had transpired in the war; at the same time, Norvick was already moving the ship towards the vampire settlement as fast as possible.
First, Archer[Quinn] needed to know which planet needed the most help where he should use his shadow travel. Only to find out that all of the fights had ended. He had no clue how much time had passed while he was away, and Archer[Quinn] couldn't imagine the chaos.
Then, seeing the ship approaching the settlement, before saying anything else, he used his shadow travel to sink through the walls and leapt down to where the others were. Before touching the ground, Archer[Quinn] allowed for his shadow to hit the floor first, making his landing soft at the same time no one had seen him arrive.
Archer[Quinn] walked behind as he looked at the trouble in front of him and could see the others ahead, he could feel how tired and exhausted they were and on top of that hear Arian[Fex]'s words. Finally, the shelter wall crumbled.
"I'm sorry…I'm sorry I took so long. You can all rest."
Turning around, they saw Archer[Quinn] in his blue fang armour set; the others didn't even know when he got there, but still, with what was in front of them, with what they had to face, they weren't even sure if Archer[Quinn] could help them out of this one.
They wanted to cheer, ask Archer[Quinn] what was happening, but each of them needed to focus on the fight in front of them.
Two cameras were currently filming, one aimed at Archer[Quinn] and the other aimed at the new One Horn, who had just finished crushing the wall.
[Nitro acceleration activated.]
The next second, everyone saw Archer[Quinn] disappear all of a sudden, and before anyone could react, he was directly in front of One Horn, throwing a fist out right towards the latter's head.
"No one is going to take over this settlement ever again!" Archer[Quinn] screamed.
The fist soon turned into a large blood drill mixed with Qi energy. The speed that Archer[Quinn] had moved at made him look like he had teleported from one area to the next. Before One Horn could even react, the blood drill exploded through his head, leaving a large gaping hole.
The five spiked Oregon[Dalki]'s hard scales were useless, and its body slowly started to fall down. When it eventually hit the ground though, it was different to before. The whole area was covered in a black substance, that was because Archer[Quinn] had already made his move out onto the field, utilising his shadow powers.
'Not a single one of you will escape.'
The other ships had landed with the rest, with Joseph[Sam]antha and Christopher[Owen] coming out as they needed help but the first thing they witnessed was Archer[Quinn]'s show of strength.
"Did he just…kill One Horn...the thing we struggled to take out that whole time… in just one punch? but how?" Arian[Fex] expressed his amazement.
The whole group rushed out to the hole in the wall to see what was happening outside. What they didn't know was Archer[Quinn] had upgraded his armour set to the Demi-god level, making him faster than he was ever before. That, and with an upgraded gauntlet as well as the nest Crystal - all these things counted together, Archer[Quinn] had improved a lot since the last time others had seen him. Still, they didn't realise that it was just the tip of his strength at the moment.
When heading out, they witnessed Archer[Quinn] dealing with the Oregon[Dalki], as if the latter were moving in slow motion, and Archer[Quinn] was going to each one of them and punching under their chin, blasting their heads off.
Running forward, he threw a powerful kick, which sent one of the dalki flying back crashing into the others. A loud bang was heard as he threw out the kick and the air broke around him. Then, he would move on to the next Oregon[Dalki] closest to him. Each time Archer[Quinn] moved from one Oregon[Dalki] to the next, a bang was heard as if Archer[Quinn] was breaking the speed barrier moving to each one.
These weren't just regular Oregon[Dalki]; they were all three and four spiked Oregon[Dalki] that Archer[Quinn] was dealing with, without even getting a scratch on him.
However, the real threats eventually started to get involved as Slicer began heading his way. She lept in the air spinning with her tail.
'I remember...when it felt like I could do nothing against you.' Archer[Quinn] thought while a shadow rose from his hand, and he unleashed William[Arthur]'s sword. Running forward, he sliced right through Slicer's tail, chopping it off and making it fall on the ground underneath.
At the same time, Green Horn had fired two energy blasts towards him, but quickly spinning around, Archer[Quinn] swung his sword, and a large explosion went off, destroying the energy blasts there and then.
Once again, Archer[Quinn] charged in towards Slicer, who had regrown her tail, but Archer[Quinn] slashed it off again before constantly hitting her across her body. Light scratches appeared all over, but they eventually got deeper and deeper.
While fighting Slicer, more of the strange energy blasts came his way, and quickly, Archer[Quinn] had kicked Slicer in the head, not able to knock it off but smashing her bottom teeth, before turning around and casting his shadow and absorbing the energy blasts.
The energy blasts then rose through the ground, hitting other Oregon[Dalki] and killing them on the spot. When spinning back, he soon grabbed Slicer's head and held it there in place.
Her body was bloody from the wounds blood dripping from her mouth, it was clear that she didn't stand a chance, and Archer[Quinn] was almost toying with her. The Oregon[Dalki] did become stronger after getting injured, but there is a limit to it, and it was the same Slicer because now, she had lost too much blood to make a swift recovery or a comeback.
"There's a reason why I kept you alive, " Archer[Quinn] said as he activated his new Demon tier weapon and started to use the energy drain active skill on Slicer—taking her energy and adding it to his.
"Is it just me…or is Archer[Quinn] getting faster, " Mill[Sil] mentioned.
After having drained all the energy he could from Slicer, Archer[Quinn] threw his fist right through her chest, activating the blood drill and piercing her body, which killed her on the spot.
Now only a few Oregon[Dalki] remained - Green Horn, the humanoid Oregon[Dalki] and around twenty odd survivors.
[System is currently syncing - 22 per cent]
The others noticed that Archer[Quinn] had gotten stronger and improved after absorbing the nest crystal energy into himself, and they were right. Now, it looked like it was syncing with his body, enhancing his strength with every passing moment.
