Biological Supercomputer System

The opposition was reduced to a disorganized mess, at least in the immediate surroundings, giving Erik and Richard a clear path forward.

But there were still many people in front of them, made by those that weren't killed by the ice shards Erik made.

The young man took his chance, leaving ice shields behind to protect Richard while he killed those in front of him.

"Stay behind the shields!" Erik said to the man, who nodded, eyes wide with a mixture of fear and awe.

Richard was both awestruck and terrified as he watched her daughter's friend fight. No, fight wasn't even an accurate word to use.

Erik was cutting through the blackguards like a hot knife through butter, or more like a blade through a heart.

He was unstoppable, a demon in human form.

Where Erik moved, death followed, leaving a trail of bodies in his wake.

The blackguards scrambled in panic, their formations slowly crumbling before this whirlwind of steel and fury.

What was scarier was that Erik showed no signs of tiring. His eyes were devoid of mercy or hesitation.

Each blackguard was killed with brutal efficiency. Erik was unstoppable, cruel, unyielding. This man had a power that left Richard feeling small. Incredibly so at that, because he knew no one, and certainly not him, could hope to replicate something like that.

In the meantime, Erik killed and killed and killed.

Each movement was amplified by the enhanced strength that the Force Bastion brain crystal power gave him.

Blackguards flew back from the force of his attacks, which they couldn't even see coming.

However, attacks landed on Erik, which were absorbed and by the mana armor he was wearing, keeping Erik safe while Richard remained behind the ice walls that the younger man was conjuring up one by one.

But Richard wasn't staying idle. As more ice walls were made, the more distance they traveled through the building.

Erik didn't kill everyone. There were some people that he had to leave alive because he had to focus on someone else. That was where Richard came into play as he started killing all those that were unconscious on the ground or clutching at their wounds.

[LEVEL UP.]

Erik felt the familiar rush of energy as he leveled up.

His mana reserves were replenished, his stamina surged. He used his healing powers to mend any injuries he got, and that the force bastion couldn't prevent, but ensuring he remained in peak condition.

The attacks on him came. They never stopped, and they were painful.

"UGH! FUCK! FUCK!"

The Blackguards fell in waves, and as they did, both Richard and Erik advanced toward the exit.

<You must turn right now!>

The biological supercomputer said.

"To the right, Richard!"

"Yes."

The older man remained close, using his own brain crystal power to support where he could, but Erik was the driving force behind their improbable and daring escape.

"This kid is a juggernaut."

Erik knew he had to keep the momentum. The goal was to kill as many blackguards as possible, leveling up and replenishing his mana to continue the fight, but that would only be required to get out of the building, to fight longer before they got to the exit.

Erik and Richard moved forward, with the younger man carving a path through bodies.

Each swing of Erik's arm, augmented by the armor's enhanced strength, killed blackguards.

The shockwaves from his armor created brief moments of chaos because the enemy couldn't understand how their comrades died, with Erik not hitting them.

They were even uncertain about their ability to create a protective barrier.

"Stay close!"

Richard nodded, keeping a pace behind the ice walls Erik conjured.

A blackguard lunged at Erik, but he sidestepped, driving his fist into the attacker's gut. The armor's power sent the blackguard sprawling. Erik followed up with a quick strike to the neck, breaking it and killing his foe.

Another enemy rushed in from the side, slashing with a blade. Erik blocked with a force field, which now was much easier to use compared to when it was made only by Nathaniel's powers.

Then countered with a devastating kick that broke the attacker's ribs. The blackguard crumpled to the ground, clutching his side.

"Richard, keep moving!"

The man obeyed, staying behind the safety of the ice shields. He watched in awe as Erik fought.

Erik's force shields absorbed the incoming attacks, redirecting the energy back at his opponents.

The sound of laser rifles being fired echoed through the hall. Erik conjured another ice wall, the laser dissipating against it.

He retaliated with a blast of ice shards, taking down the shooters. He felt a mana powered laser graze his arm, but he quickly healed the wound with his brain crystal powers.

"Fuck!"

Erik said as the pain flared, then dissipated as the healing kicked in.

Another wave of blackguards charged at Erik. He created a wall of ice, then shattered it with a shockwave, sending shards flying.

The blackguards could not defend themselves. Their charge faltering as they were bombarded

by icy fragments.

[LEVEL UP.]

Erik felt the surge of energy, his mana reserves replenishing. He pressed on, each kill bringing him closer to full strength.

A large blackguard stepped forward, swinging a massive axe. The man foolishly thought he could at least slow down Erik.

The younger man dove under the swing, driving his elbow into the man's ribs.

Erik's strength was simply too much for the man's body to handle.

The blow was lethal; the blackguard fell to the ground. But Erik wasn't there anymore; he had already ripped out the arm of another blackguard from his body.

A fountain of blood pooled at the man's feet.

Richard watched, unable to mutter a word.

"Insane... simply insane," he said, unable to divert his eyes, staying behind the ice shields and

killing off injured blackguards.

"Erik, to the right!" The biological supercomputer said.

Erik nodded, turning to clear the path. He blasted another group of blackguards, then lunged forward and created another ice wall to protect Richard.

A blackguard attacked Erik with a spear. Erik dodged, grabbed the shaft, and broke it in half

with a flick of his wrist.

With lightning speed, Erik knocked the attacker into his comrades, lifeless this time.

Another blackguard came at Erik from the side, swinging a heavy mace.

Erik dove under the attack, then drove his fist upward into the man's chin. Once again, the punch was lethal, and the blackguard fell to the ground while blood poured out of his eyes and

ears.

Erik felt a presence behind him and spun around just in time to block a sword strike with his

armored forearm.

The force shield he conjured at the last second absorbed the impact, and Erik countered with a

swift kick to the attacker's knee, shattering it.

The blackguard screamed and fell, clutching his leg.
