Colonial Suit

Chapter 177: The Secret of the Meteor! The Attribute of Battle Aura!

A deafening boom erupted.

Centered on the point of contact between the two, the ground within a radius of several hundred meters exploded simultaneously, sending countless icy rocks flying into the air. Amidst the scattering debris, the entire ground caved in, forming a crater shaped like the bottom of a pot. The surrounding airflow shot out in all directions, creating sharp whistling sounds like blades. The scene was as devastating as if a storm had just passed.

Amidst such a catastrophic explosion, Blood瞳 was blasted away like a cannonball, crashing directly into the wall on the opposite side of the arena and smashing a large hole.

In front of him, a deep groove extended straight out, the fissure created by the force of his aura.

"Oh?"

Gaia murmured softly, a peculiar look in his eyes.

"He actually took the initiative to meet my attack, buffering my power?"

"He seems more resilient than I thought. But that's fine, let me warm up a bit." As he spoke, he pounced towards Blood瞳 like a giant bear, stirring up countless currents of air in his wake.

At the same time, Blood瞳 had just jumped out of the hole in the wall.

He was now equipped with his black and red armor, his entire body encased in sturdy protein armor. Even so, there were shallow dents on the outer edges of his arms, and his joints were twisted in a strange way.

Gaia's attack power was too strong. Blood瞳 felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him. That strike truly possessed the power of a collapsing mountain. Even the protein armor of his battlesuit couldn't withstand it. This was only after he had buffered the impact; otherwise, that single blow would have been enough to smash him into the ground.

A dull ache pulsed from his arms. Blood瞳 knew that his joints were probably dislocated, but such minor injuries were nothing to the battlesuit. He didn't even bother thinking about it. His eyes were fixed on the approaching Gaia, a glint of determination flashing within.

The opponent's battle aura actually had a binding effect. In that case… his speed advantage would be difficult to utilize.

However, that didn't mean he would give up.

Biting down slightly, Blood瞳 suddenly lowered his body, darting along the ground. In an instant, he circled around to Gaia's left side. He then kicked out at Gaia's knee.

His speed was extremely fast, and his movements were precise and effective. But something unexpected happened.

With a clang, his whip-like leg, which could sever alloy pillars, seemed to slam into a city wall and was directly deflected. Blood瞳 immediately felt a sharp pain in his ankle, almost breaking it from the backlash.

What powerful defense!

Blood瞳 was slightly startled, but before he could make his next move, Gaia let out a roar, his left arm swinging horizontally like a great axe…

There was a loud boom, as if the air had shattered! A khaki-colored aura burst forth from Gaia's body with his movement, instantly sweeping across a radius of several meters. At the same time, the binding sensation that restricted his entire body reappeared, pinning Blood瞳 in place.

In a flash of lightning, a cold light burst out in Blood瞳's eyes, and he also unleashed a wild aura. Instead of being restrained as Gaia had expected, he leaped up like a cheetah, dodging the streak of light aura. The aura swept past, rumbling as it shaved off a layer of rock from the ground over dozens of meters.

"Hmm?" Gaia was stunned. "This is battle aura? I didn't expect you to have it too. But your battle aura is still immature, lacking even the most basic attribute."

"Interesting. I didn't expect to encounter a mercenary like you on this primitive planet. In that case, let me unlock the attribute of your battle aura. Only then will you be worthy of being my opponent!" As he spoke, Gaia suddenly reached out and grabbed the ground beneath his feet. Then he exhaled and made an upward pulling motion with both arms.

With a rumble, the ground beneath his feet was visibly lowered, as he forcibly tore out a huge ice rock with a diameter of ten meters. He then hurled it towards Blood瞳.

The wind howled as the enormous ice rock instantly enveloped Blood瞳 in the air. He was in mid-air at this moment, where was there any room to dodge?

However, what others didn't know was that Blood瞳's battlesuit was not like Gaia's land combat armor. Others couldn't dodge in the air, but for Blood瞳, it was extremely easy. He didn't even change his posture as several streams suddenly spurted out from his back, forcibly pushing him sideways.

Then he suddenly did a large spin, extending two-meter-long blades from the edges of his arms, and slashed down at Gaia's head.

It was a blade of light as bright as the moon. Although the sun shone, it could not hide the sharpness of the blade.

The sharpness of a high-frequency blade!

Blood瞳's battlesuit weapon system was not extensive, but without a doubt, the high-frequency blade was the strongest weapon he could currently wield. The high-frequency blade, vibrating tens of thousands of times per second, was almost indestructible. Blood瞳 had never encountered anyone who could withstand it. After the previous test, he already knew that Gaia's defense was the strongest he had ever seen. And the only way to break through such a defense was to use this deadly weapon.

What seemed complicated was actually just a moment.

In the eyes of everyone in the arena, Blood瞳 was like a cheetah tumbling in the air, not only dodging Gaia's attack but also making such a sharp counterattack. The sudden burst of blade light obscured all colors and instantly arrived above Gaia's head.

"Good!" Gaia was not surprised but delighted, a look of excitement flashing in his eyes.

In a flash of lightning, he suddenly spread his hands out, actually meeting the two streaks of light with his palms.

There was a crisp sound of metal clashing, and Blood瞳's body immediately stopped in mid-air.

Visibly, his two indestructible high-frequency blades were actually grasped in Gaia's hands. The blade edges vibrated at high speed, bringing out countless sparks.

"This is!?" Blood瞳's pupils shrank sharply. He could never have imagined this result.

This Gaia actually received his high-frequency blades with just his hands?

How was that possible!?

Blood瞳 was very clear about the power of the high-frequency blade. Not to mention a set of armor, even a small spaceship could be cut in two with one slash! How could anyone catch it with their bare hands?

For a moment, Blood瞳 even had a ridiculous feeling, and his movements slowed by half a beat.

Below him, Gaia revealed a sneer.

"I said, your battle aura has just been comprehended, and even its attribute has not been awakened. Do you think such an attack can be effective against me? As a melee mercenary, you rely on weapons. You really disappoint me!"

"In that case, I will dispose of this weapon for you."

As he spoke, Gaia suddenly gripped his hands and twisted.

The most ⊥ New ⊥ Small ⊥ Said ⊥ is ⊥ At ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ Book ⊥⊥ Bar ⊥⊥ First ⊥ Send!

With a clang, countless fragments shot out from his fingers. The two indestructible high-frequency blades were actually crushed by him, turning into a burst of bright silver light.

Impossible!

Blood瞳's eyes widened suddenly, revealing a look of disbelief. Then he felt a sharp pain in his arms. The wreckage of the high-frequency blades actually pierced through the muscle tissue of the battlesuit, stabbing into his arms.

With the power of the high-frequency blade, even the wreckage almost pierced through Blood瞳's arm. Blood immediately spurted out, staining Blood瞳's arms red.

But he didn't even hum, a wild beast-like look in his eyes. He kicked towards Gaia's face.

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to planet x35, becoming that bloodthirsty beast, actually attacking against attack. His whole body exuded a dangerous aura.

It was a pity that his attack was too weak for Gaia. Gaia didn't even dodge, only tilting his head and letting Blood瞳 kick him on the shoulder. His heavy, mountain-like body didn't even move.

"The speed and reaction are very outstanding. But what's the point if your power can't even break through your opponent's defense? You who can't comprehend the battle aura attribute are really not worth mentioning…"

As he spoke, Gaia reached out and grabbed Blood瞳's ankle, then threw him out violently.

With his strength, Blood瞳 was like a cannonball, involuntarily flying across the entire arena and smashing back into the hole he had just crashed into. Being knocked into the same spot twice was truly a great irony for Blood瞳.

In fact, from the time he walked out of planet x35 until now, Blood瞳 had never encountered an enemy who could fight him in melee combat. He had become accustomed to using his speed advantage to crush his enemies with a storm of attacks. This made him, although unconsciously, become more brutal in later battles.

This behavior, to put it nicely, is called simple and efficient, but to put it badly, it is called reckless.

When encountering enemies who are slightly weaker than himself or basically at the same level, Blood瞳 can take the upper hand with ease. But once he encounters enemies who are much stronger than him, this becomes a fatal weakness.

In fact, Blood瞳 himself didn't know that if Gaia hadn't had the idea of testing him, the first blow would probably have crushed him.

"Pfft!" The violent impact finally damaged Blood瞳's internal organs. He involuntarily spat out a small mouthful of blood. But his eyes gradually calmed down.

At this moment, Blood瞳 finally knew the gap between the two sides and began to think about the battle aura attribute that Gaia kept mentioning.

What exactly is this thing? Why did Lord Hansel never mention it to him?

Through the hole in the wall, Blood瞳 could see Gaia walking towards him step by step, carrying countless whirlpools of air.

His speed was not fast, but in fact, every step was like a heavy hammer falling, causing the entire ground to rumble. The hard ice rock ground was as fragile as paper under his feet, leaving a row of deep footprints.

He was so rough, as if he was trampling the ground under his feet. But strangely, the more this was the case, the more the surrounding environment matched him, and every move he made seemed to gather the power of the earth. Especially when attacking, he could easily unleash a terrifying yellow aura and an air shackle that restrained the enemy.

In doubt… Blood瞳 thought of the nickname he claimed…

"The earth's rebellious son? So… this is his root. His battle aura attribute should be earth."

In an instant, Blood瞳 understood the true source of Gaia's power.

But where is his own source of power?

What is his own battle aura attribute?
