"Don't call me that anymore?" the woman in dark clothes protest.
"Ahh... you never tell me your name… beside… You need a good name if you want to be my sidekick," said Viktor quietly.
"Viez, you can call me Viez!"
"Alright.. Viez the Metal sidekick!"
"Whatever." Viez clicked her tongue. It was clear he was annoyed with Viktor's nickname.
Even if she was upset, she had to put those feelings aside. Right now, 6 Earth Realm people were pointing their weapons at the two of them.
Clack!
The guards looked confused, their firearms malfunctioning.
"Did your weapons get jammed?"
Previously Viktor had used [Metal Bending] to render their weapons useless so they couldn't shoot.
Viez saw this as an opportunity decided to directly charge against the three Earth Realm people alone.
She dashed fast like a bullet, then launched a fist.
Bang!
Her punch hit a guard in the chin and then he passed out. Two other Guards came rushing at Viez, trying to gang up on her.
But Viez stay calm.
She gracefully dodged every attack launched by the enemies. When she saw a chance, she launches a hard hit directly on the solar plexus.
"Cough!"
The Earth Realm guard immediately collapsed and lost consciousness. But Viez wasn't done yet.
Her eyes immediately locked the next target. The remaining guards looked surprised. Wasting no time, Viez lunged at the guard then kicked him in the groin.
Bang!
"Ow!" Even just watching the scene gave Viktor phantom pain.
"Watch out!" Viez said while pointing behind Viktor. He looked behind him and saw three guards were trying to attack him at the same time.
"Time to try a move."
He saw this as an opportunity to try out his new technique, a variation of the [North Fist] he had just learned.
The enemy decided to swing their jammed weapons to attack Viktor, but none of their attacks connected. Meanwhile, with the sound of crashing and creaking of metal, Viktor deflected their attacks.
He smiled in satisfaction as he saw the techniques' effects. Then, Viktor began to seriously finish them off.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
His fists and elbows landed on the enemy's body, causing them to collapse.
After Viktor finished defeating his enemy, Viez's face looked surprised. "It's really surprising, you suddenly went from Earth realm to Sky realm"
Behind the metal mask, Viktor smiled. "Now that you know my secret, you can no longer see my mysterious charm. Your loss "
Viez sighed. Then she opened the gate and entered the warehouse first.
Before entering, Viktor checked his current status.
[Strength - 73 (88)]
[Agility - 112 (127)]
[Endurance - 73 (88)]
[Battle Power - 86 (101)]
Since he upgraded to Sky realm and then got extra power from [36 fist of the north star manual], Viktor has become similar in strength to Sky realm Magus mid or high stage.
Unfortunately the Tier 2 metal armor he had from the pillar's challenge was lost once the challenge was finished, so he could only have a boost from Tier 1 metal that had been tempered to masterpiece quality. He could only at most receive 15 points of boost of [Metal fusion] until he could accumulate enough tier 2 metal.
Either way, 101 battle power should be enough to solve any problem in this place that was almost similar to the battle power of a saint after all.
The air was stuffy. Inside is full of dusty old factory production machines. There was no light but the silvery moonlight coming in through the hollow roof of the barn.
"What place are you referring to?" Viktor asked walking after Viez from behind.
"At the end of the barn is a rusty door. Behind that door is the path to the basement. That's where all the proof of Greg's depravity is hidden."
The two of them walked past the old, long-abandoned machines. After walking to the end, they came across the rusty door Viez was referring to.
Creak…
The door creaked. The two of them entered and descended the long flight of stairs.
The further down they are, the more humid the air felt. Water dripped in from the celling, creating sticky puddles on the floor. As they descended, they heard strange noises.
Viktor who heard the voice glanced at Viez, wondering if he heard the voices too. But Viez seemed to ignore it.
'What exactly is Greg hiding?'
When he were asked to came here, Viez didn't explain anything. She just asked to get rid of Greg and his men. Viktor didn't care, he just accepted Viez's request to protect his identity.
But after hearing these strange sounds Viktor became curious.
"Djinn, can you check the peoples ahead?" Viktor muttered.
[3 Sky Realm - Battle power 60 to 70]
[20 Earth Realm - Battle power 35 to 50]
[32 Mortal Realm - Battle power 5 to 15]
Not long afterwards, they arrived at the basement.
There the road is almost covered with wooden boxes. The light bulb seemed to hang from the ceiling. There was a door at the end of the room and someone was watching.
From behind the door, Viktor heard strange noises.
Viktor wanted to use [Metal Bending] to jam the firearms the guards were using, but Viez had already advanced. There was no sound at all when he stepped.
Bang!
The guard collapsed after Viez hit his back in the neck.
"Our real fight is in there," Viez told Viktor.
Victor nodded. Then inhale. After that he kicked the door.
Bang!
Viktor's eyes opened wide to see a group of men carrying iron bats.
But what made Viktor astonished was not them, but the sight of dozens of naked women in an awfull condition.
They looked high, blank stares and mouths kept drooling. Some of them were tied up and beaten until their bodies were bruised. While at the end of the room there is a row of cells, containing women who are curled up and crying.
At that moment Viktor knew what had happened to this place.
These women were abducted and forced to take drugs so their captives can do whatever they want with them. After breaking their will, they were made into sex workers.
Viktor kew about such things because many mafias did the prostitution business this way. Even though Viktor prided himself as a womanizer, he detest such act of depravity.
Seeing this scene Viktor could not contain his emotions.
"You beasts! You all dont deserve to live for hurting god given beautiful creature!!"
The group of men seemed displeased with Viktor's presence. Among them a bald-headed man stepped forward—Greg Solov.
"Who are you, you bastards!" cried Greg.
Viktor who saw the person in charge of all this looked furious.
"Hey-"
Swooosh!
Without need of words, Viktor had already lunged at the enemy. He didn't care anymore.
Right now his anger was burning.
All enemy tier 1 weapons are attracted and released from enemy hands. Their faces looked confused. At Viktor's current strength, [Metal Bending] was able to control tier 1 weapons with ease.
"Why are you just standing there? Attack!" Greg screamed.
twenty-two people lunged at the same time, as did Viktor.
As Viktor and the enemy collided, the sound of metal and bone clashing echoed through the room. Dozens of people simultaneously slammed into Viktor's iron-clad body. But none of their attacks had any effect, instead their hands were crushed.
"Fuck!" Shouts one of the enemies. Panic appeared on their faces, seeing one by one their comrades fell.
Greg who immediately understood that this situation was not in his favor decided to run away. He was sneaking around in the middle of the battle while Viktor was busy.
Bam! Bam!
Viktor threw a fist and crushed every bone in their skulls to shreds. He applied the basic variation of the fist techniques.
Blood red dyed Viktor's black metal armor.
Viez was astonished at this insane sight "This is crazy."
Even though Viez was a Sky Realm, She can tell Viktor are special, he can easily fight against other skyrealm afterall.
On the other hand, The victims were astronished as well. When they saw the people who tortured them beaten to pulp, they started to cheer for the man.
In the middle of the fight, Viktor shouted, "Why you just stood, released them!"
Viez, who had been dumbfounded for a while, finally came to her senses. She ran towards the victims and ran to free them.
Now, Viktor can focus on eliminating all his enemies on his own.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
20 Earth Realm people were quickly tossed back. Leaving 2 Sky Realm fighters. They simultaneously charged at Viktor.
One of them used a spell that conjured flames all around Viktor, but his attacks still connected.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Every time Viktor's elbows and hands landed on the enemy's body the sound of bones cracking could be heqre. One of the Sky Realm collapsed and vomited blood.
"Hey!"
Bang!
A Sky Realm's body slammed into the wall. With this, the last enemy has fallen.
