Based on what Rodney had said, they now only had one plan. Which is to attack the cyborg until his true core is revealed.
"Okay," Clyde said calmly. "If that's what it has to be done, we just have to do it."
Rodney and the others who heard it were astonished. How could Clyde be so calm?
But then they got rid of their astonishment. From what they could see earlier, they could be sure that Clyde was able to act that calm for a reason.
The cyborg stood towering and stared at them. The red light that was on his head shone toward all the players as if scanning them one by one.
"Hey, you can't get him off guard with the words you just said?" Reed asked Rodney.
"No. Earlier, that man still had a bit of human consciousness. However, now his mind has been controlled by the program so he has no emotions," Rodney answered.
Reed sighed. "Okay then. Let's just attack him." Said Reed who had given up.
The cyborg dashed towards them. His steps sounded loud and created a small vibration around.
The cyborg seemed to no longer want to give them time to talk to each other.
He swung his spear and pointed it forward. From the point of the spear, a reddish orb shot toward them with incredible speed.
*JYUU!*
*JYUU!*
*JYUU!*
ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm ...
The shot from the spearhead came rapidly toward the Players. They immediately scattered so the orbs that the cyborg shot just hit places where they had been standing.
Clyde was the first to strike. He shot straight at the cyborg while his body was still covered in bluish-white lightning.
The cyborg had clearly also noticed Clyde's arrival. He turned and pointed his spear directly at Clyde.
He fired a laser large enough that it looked as though a laser pillar was emerging from the tip of the spear.
Clyde was able to dodge the shot easily. For him, the speed at which the cyborg fired his attacks was not a problem at all.
The laser shattered the ground Clyde had been standing on as he run from the side. Clyde then swung the Elderglass Sword and sent a slash of lightning toward the cyborg.
While his attack shot toward the cyborg, Clyde also dashed at full speed toward the cyborg. Until it was as if he was racing against his lightning slash.
The cyborg raised his spear to block Clyde's lightning slash.
*CLANG!*
*WUSH!*
When the slash hit the spear, a shockwave spread around blowing up trash and debris.
Unfortunately, the lightning slash lasted long enough that the cyborg had to keep using his spear, or else the slash would hit him.
This was used by the others to launch attacks. The Regressors moved together to slash their swords so they could continue to damage the cyborg's armor.
Meanwhile, Sonya also kept shooting at the scratches or dents left by the Regressors.
All of this took place in a fraction of a second. But because of Clyde's lightning slashes which lasted long enough, they were able to land more hits than they should.
In addition, the effect of Asqa's [Skill: Attack Up] also helps them to create great damage.
The lightning slash finally disappeared after the cyborg knocked it away with its spear. Then the cyborg spun its spear around to chase away the Regressors around it.
Clyde immediately took part as soon as he saw that the cyborg could move freely again.
The cyborg's brain now had indeed changed into a computer brain analyzing the situation quickly. Eventually, the cyborg decided that the biggest threat to it among his attackers was Clyde.
Even though the human brain inside was still screaming that the person he should kill first was the man who said he was the cause of his mother's death.
For now, his mechanical organs were clearly more obedient to his computer brain than his emotionally useless human brain.
The cyborg ran towards Clyde. Clyde ran towards him while holding the hilt of the Elderglass Sword with both hands.
Once they were within close range, Clyde made a stabbing motion as he had before. Then sent a shot of powerful lightning toward the cyborg who was charging toward him.
The cyborg used his spear to block Clyde's lightning laser-like attack. Because of that, the footsteps that had been running toward Clyde stopped in place.
Clyde turned to the rest of the group. He didn't need to say anything because they already knew what to do.
They immediately lunged back and attacked the Cyborg from all directions with even greater ferocity.
*CLANG!*
*CLANG!*
*CLANG!*
...
Swords and a barrage of laser shots hit the cyborg's body. Increases the number of wounds on his armor.
Even some parts of the armor had fallen to the ground unable to withstand the barrage of their relentless attacks.
The cyborg received a notification that the resistance of his armor was decreasing rapidly. The cyborg immediately used a shockwave to blow all the attackers around him away.
The shockwave also sent Clyde back a few meters. Luckily he was still able to gain good footing.
Meanwhile, the cyborg didn't move immediately. He spread his gaze around at all the players swarming him from all directions.
All the players there began to believe that what Rodney said at the beginning was true. They would have a bit of a hassle when facing the cyborg. However, they will still be able to defeat him.
"We can't stop now!" Rodney said as he ran ahead of the others toward the cyborg.
The others immediately followed him.
Seeing them coming back to him, the cyborg immediately ran and jumped toward a building. He then landed on the top of the building and stared at them.
Clyde immediately followed him. He didn't care even if the cyborg planned to provoke him to separate himself from the others.
The cyborg also jumped again to keep his distance. Clyde was still following him with his body still covered in lightning.
Clyde caught up with the cyborg in no time with his speed. He immediately slashed the Elderglass Sword which the cyborg blocked with the spear.
[ Burning Hand (Lv. 10) is activated! ]
Feeling that he had not dealt enough damage, Clyde immediately activated [Skill: Burning Hand] and aimed for the part of the cyborg's armor whose outer layer had been peeled off.
The flames entered the cyborg's inner body through the gaps in his chipped armor. Increasing the damage level on the cyborg even more.
The cyborg and Clyde then fight atop the tall buildings. Explosion after explosion was created, the damage spread as they kept moving throughout the fight.
The rest of the group followed up. Sonya was about to shoot to help Clyde. However, he couldn't get a proper shot due to the debris and their fast-moving speed.
"I don't have a shot," Sonya said, shaking her head.
"Don't worry. We'll be able to take over from here," Rodney said. "Let's go!"
The Regressors immediately took that as a cue. So they followed Rodney who shot toward the fight.
*CLANG!*
*CLANG!*
*CLANG!*
...
The sound of impact as the Elderglass Sword's transparent blue blade covered in lightning struck the cyborg's metal spear echoed around the area.
Clyde's face was calm as he swung the Eldgerlass Sword with steady strength and speed.
His attacks cornered the cyborg until he finally entered a floor of a tall building and the two of them fought in an office room.
Clyde already knew that victory was near. He just needed to give the cyborg a little more encouragement. However, he can't afford to be off guard like before.
The Regressors followed shortly after. They entered the office and started attacking so that it accelerated the cyborg's damage process.
Clyde and the Regressors attacked simultaneously from all sides, the cyborg that had already taken quite a lot of damage was now even more cornered.
His speed and strength decreased drastically. His armor wore away more and more and fell on the floor of the office.
*DUAGH!*
Then Clyde delivers a kick that instantly sends the cyborg through a window and he falls down.
Clyde didn't say anything and immediately followed him. The other Regressors automatically also ran.
Clyde jumped down. Because they were previously on a fairly high floor, when Clyde came out the cyborg had not yet reached the bottom.
Clyde immediately threw lightning bolts and lightning slashes at the cyborg. All the attacks hit him and pushed him down even faster.
*BOOM!*
The cyborg hit the ground with a loud crash and craters were created all around it.
Clyde held the hilt of the Elderglass Sword with both hands as he continued to descend.
Until finally, he landed on top of the cyborg's body while thrusting the Elderglass Sword into his chest which was no longer protected by his armor.
Clyde as well continued to channel lightning through the Elderglass Sword into the cyborg's body.
The cyborg's body convulsed and bluish-white lightning shot out through the gaps in the armor.
