Chapter 1444 Different Puppets
The strength from Grey's hammer sent the man crashing into the ground.
The man slammed heavily, causing a large crater on the ground, followed by a large dust cloud.
Grey didn't move from the place he was standing, he squinted his eyes and saw a flash heading at him from the dust cloud.
He wanted to use his space element to escape, but just like what he did to the man, the space around him was locked and he was forced to take the attack head-on.
After the attack left the dust cloud and came to view, he noticed it was a puppet holding a large sword. The speed of the puppet was beyond his expectations and before he could react, it was already before him. He didn't have the time to cut off the link to the puppet as he was forced to block what was before him.
He blocked the attack, but the strength of the puppet was unlike anything he had ever experienced.
His eyes widened when he took a closer look at the puppet.
"A Barbarian."
Shock was written over his face, but he didn't stop blocking the attack from the puppet. The Barbarian was at the Peak of the Venerable Plane, but that was not what made it different, it's the fact that there was no way it would be worried about Grey causing it any harm which would make the Barbarian dangerous. Other than that, the puppet was different, Grey could tell it wasn't under control by the man.
"Hahaha, after we heard about you, we've been researching unendingly to get a way to have puppets we won't be linked to, and I got it. You don't need humans for this, but Barbarian. Hahaha!" The man laughed out loud from the rubble as he stood up.
The reason he hadn't brought it out earlier was due to not having the time. He only had two Barbarian puppets, and given their strength and features, he needed time to mark Grey, ensuring that the puppet fought with only Grey and no one else.
Of course, there was a massive disadvantage with this since it meant there was no way he could do combined attacks with his puppet, but as long as he could survive against the infamous Grey Dawson because of this, then he was satisfied.
Grey didn't have the time to look at the man as the attack on him continued from the Barbarian.
'I didn't expect I'd fight one of you in this state.' He thought as he looked at the listless eyes of the Barbarian that had only him in his head.
The Barbarian had been ordered to only attack Grey, which means no matter what happens, until Grey was dead or the Barbarian was kept by the owner, it would continuously fight with Grey.
Grey didn't feel any pressure, he created a large sword with the fire element and slashed it at the puppet.
The puppet blocked the attack with its blade and used the water element to grab hold of Grey's leg. The puppet created a tentacle-like water and after grabbing Grey, he dragged him towards him while simultaneously swinging his sword in that direction.
'I hate these guys.'
Barbarians have always been great fighters. A Barbarian in the same stage as most humans would almost always win a one on one fight.
This Barbarian showed the difference between its kind and humans. Even with the man's strength, he still wasn't on Grey's level, but the second it appeared, it showed the difference.
Grey created an earth wall to slow down the sword before using the lightning element to destroy the water that was holding his leg.
After doing that, he was about to attack when the man appeared behind him, sending out a large darkness palm.
The palm spread out and when it got close to Grey, it closed.
Grey burst out with blue flames and silver lightning, shattering the palm into particles.
The man didn't say anything, all he wanted was to stop Grey's escape from the puppet, and his aim was achieved as the puppet sliced through the earth wall Grey set up before attacking him with ice spears.
Grey used a stream of flames to burn the spears, melting it before using his inscriptions to attack the man who was stopping his movements.
The puppet moved closer, but Grey was prepared, attacking with a multicolored blade. He used his elements to create a fusion elemental blade, rather than making a normal orb, he ungraded it and created a blade that was even more powerful.
Creating the blade required more time, but it was worth it after he attacked the puppet.
The sword of the Barbarian was cut in half and the puppet could only withdraw from the attack. It might not have the intelligence of a living Barbarian, but its battle experience was still there.
To be honest, Grey was impressed with the man's method. Being able to accomplish something like this was not ordinary.
Unfortunately, the man wasn't someone he needed. He vanished and appeared behind the puppet as it was escaping from the fusion blade, before attacking with a dimensional slash.
The puppet turned around, but it was a little late and the attack struck its shoulders, cutting off the hand it used to hold the sword, which was its left hand.
The man saw this and his eyes almost popped out, "Stop!"
Grey pretended not to hear him as he used the fusion blade to cut off the other hand. With both hands gone, the Barbarian stood in the sky, with just its legs, it used the water element to create hands made with water and grabbed the sword before attacking.
Grey smiled and charged at the puppet.
The man knew if the duo clashed, his puppet would be destroyed. But when he thought about his safety, he looked away and brought out a talisman which he crushed.
He was covered with the spatial particles as a tunnel opened up, just as he was about to step into it, it shut down.
"Your array was very useful." Grey commented.
