＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ ■ Wangdu Althea/Royal Castle

In a hallway lit by flames, Xuan Yu and Zeta face each other.

We threw words from the swift feathers, wary of each other's movements.

"You're here, which means this raid is at the mercy of the Empire, yo? Too much zo to do whatever you want."

"Ask back. I won't answer the right or wrong of your question, but here's what I want to hear.... How did you find out?

He disappears and asks how he noticed Zeta's intrusion, which he also hid.

"A? There's no sign and I can't see him, but he must be moving over the space, Ga. I'm sensitive to that, yo."

"… Convinced"

Having spatial transfer attack skills, albeit limited.

To take advantage of this, the [symbol] used by Xuan Yu also includes the magic of the spatial search system. One way or another, [Yin Yang Master] gets it, but it's not like [Corpse Immortal] can't do it either.

This time, as a result of detecting the castle, we discovered an unnatural movement… too quietly moving in the castle in a hurry in this predicament.

"Surprised. And surprising. I thought you were going to intercept someone else."

"Come on (...) are the guys that are rampaging near the entrance ka? If you're doing it so flashy, Ze suspects it's a positive move, even if it's not me. Well, the people who protect the castle won't be able to leave that... because my role isn't to protect the castle, Sa."

Therefore, the swift feathers that burned part of the castle, though to broil out the zeta,

"My role is to protect Tsang and the others, Na. - Startup"

That's what I said - I activated the [symbol] that was scattered all over the hallway during the attack with the previous prosthetic hand.

Like an unintentional blow, a hotline that kills from the bottom toward Zeta.

- Grasp.

Zeta is aware of the fabric stone and identifies the moment of activation and flips herself, avoiding it.

At the same time, however, the arms of the swift feathers were moving and stretched at supersonic speeds along both sides of the hallway.

Inside those arms, countless [symbols] for attacks stick - illuminating the heat line to ravage the entire corridor in conjunction with the [symbols] sprinkled.

Unlike the arena that fought Figaro, an exclusive space: the hallway.

There is nowhere in the net of illuminated hotlines, space for each person, etc.

Zeta to the ravages of an escapeless hotline,

"Code II: Shelter"

I didn't do anything to escape.

Half a second later, countless hotlines pierce her.

A concentrated fire of hotlines that also makes it easy to turn the human body into charcoal scum full of holes.

But... it didn't arrive.

Before reaching Zeta, the hotline is inhibited as if it had hit an invisible wall.

Shortly after preventing Xuan Yu from attacking, Zeta went on the offense.

"Code I: Forming, Code IV: Artillary"

"Huh!"

Dauntingly, Xunyu wraps his left foot Tenaga Asinaga around himself.

Shortly afterwards, an attack arrived from 360 degrees around to Kuniba simultaneously.

They all had enough pressure to even penetrate the steel, but they didn't even penetrate the Tenaga Asinaga of < Super Embrio >.

But the problem with that attack is not power...

(... invisible)

All of the attacks coming from all directions would have been transparent, as if they had been invisible.

No, there's something you can see if you stare.

Like a pneumonia, the space is partially distorted.

(Is this... an air bomb?)

Air bullets that strike out compressed air and grind objects, also seen in wind attribute magic and so on.

And it wasn't magic she used, < Embrio > skills.

If so, Zeta's is still...

…… ……

In an attempt to speak his own speculation, Xunyu realizes that the words are silent.

(Vacuum state…)

Soon, the flames that were illuminating the hallway have also gone out.

There was a total loss of air in the hallway where they were, except for the air bullets Zeta used.

In addition, the pressure difference does not seem to cause air to flow in from the outside.

(It doesn't have to be air because it's me in the undead, but if I get so small-worked behind all this onslaught when I'm the other guy, maybe I'll pack it with that)

[Corpse Immortal], and because it is a Xuan Yu with advantages without undead drawbacks, it can also operate without problems in this state.

Xunyu does not even care about the vacuum and continues the attack by the prosthetic hand.

In contrast, Zeta dodges the prosthetic hand... or plays it with an invisible wall (...) to avoid a direct hit.

"Change"

You understand Zeta doesn't work in vacuum either. Switch from a vacuum state to another tactic.

The switch was obvious even from the eyes of Xuan Yu.

Metal lights and door fittings distributed in the hallway.

Everything I said that...... rusts rapidly (...).

(This guy... now he's raising his oxygen concentration)

Pure oxygen is also an extremely powerful oxidizing agent in nature.

Invades numerous substances and forces them to create compounds.

Xun Yu perceives that his equipment is beginning to have its corrosive effect.

In addition, because oxygen acts as a combustion aid, fire attribute magic cannot be used in a wide area.

If the fire in the hallway hadn't been extinguished by the vacuum just before, it would have been in great flames by now, just like the main entrance.

(Now that whole body bandage, it's not just fashion. I saw you wearing space or submersible clothing equivalent equipment inside the bandage so that you wouldn't get caught up in changes in barometric pressure (...) or atmospheric composition (...)

But now it's confirmed.

Zeta's identity is clear.

"Optical camouflage, invisible walls, air bullets, vacuum, full of oxygen...... Your ability to manipulate the air (...)"

Shun Yu says while continuing to attack with prosthetic hands and defend with prosthetic legs, avoiding the use of fire attribute magic.

"Optical camouflage by controlling the refraction of the air around you. Insulation with layers of vacuum and air overlaid on many layers. wall of compressed air. An air bullet that attacked me from all directions. Vacuum or vice versa oxygen filling. Too blatant ze"

…………

To Xuan Yu's words, Zeta turned the face hidden in the bandage into a slightly surprising look.

"If that and this are used to keep you up to this point, you don't have to be me to notice tha. But there's nothing wrong with being noticed, Ro?

If Zeta's < Super Embrio > is as Xunyu speculated, it doesn't weaken where it's noticed.

Because as long as people live, they can't drain the air.

Like Gabella's Alhazard, who once fought Shu, it's not like anything that halves the threat when it turns out 'there's that kind of < embrio >.

I've just been informed of my abilities, and I don't have a problem with them.

"This is not just a simple operation, but even the composition of the air. Zo with a terribly wide range of things you can do. The skills I've been using are the same and different."

Something for insulation that defends the hotline and an invisible wall that prevents the attack of a swift feather prosthetic - something that specializes in physical defense, like a silver compressed air defense wall. (Mirage is overlaid and transparent so as to camouflage the air that no longer passes through the light precisely by compression)

Zeta uses them lightly.

"But we're losing air, or on the contrary, we're only adding more oxygen, but we're not making poison gas, Na. You're just moving some air from the beginning and controlling it, Ro?

Rather than say a space filled with pure oxygen, Xunyu guessed that it separates other than oxygen and solidifies it as a wall of compressed air or an air bullet.

But on the contrary, we can do almost anything to control the air that exists.

A versatile model that can fight any opponent.

This is true of Xunyu himself as a style.

But Zeta's < Embrio > omnipotence may be beyond Xun Yu.

Plus, that control is exquisite.

Speaking of speculation...... the breakdown of abilities caused me to get upset, but the walls of the air and the shells are as if motion were undisturbed.

Zeta herself constantly moves and continues to pay attention to Xuan Yu's special skills.

(Fortunately, this isn't the only way you can finish me off)

Artillary, which fires air cannons in a row, is not enough to break the Xun Yu's defense.

Nor is the wall of defense enough to completely bounce back the attack of Xuan Yu.

Due to its versatility, the output is low.

And vacuum conditions and toxic air that would be the deciding factor for counterorganisms don't go through the swift feathers.

If we keep fighting like this, Xuan Yu will win any day......

(Embrio himself has a strong connotation of aiding his actions and battles as a bandit. then the decision-makers in battle are separate)

The battle of doesn't just depend on Embrio.

(The depths of [Bandit King]. Some skills have pulled out the heart of the person you touched in the duel. It sucks to keep him close to himself. Plus, one more thing... you should have super weapons that don't know any details)

The depths of [Bandit King] were also examined in the literature by Xunyu.

His name is Absolute Steel.

Skill in stealing objects inside (...) touched objects.

If you use it in an item box, you can easily steal any item regardless of the anti-theft measures, and if you use it in an organism, you can easily steal organs.

Quiet burglary, the opposite of [Robbery King] 's skill to take every item box, or every epidermis of an organism.

(Control the air and stir the statue that looks like the target, approaching unnoticed and pulling out the heart... should be able to do about that. In the first place, if it wasn't for me, I'd be disfigured by the vacuum and toxic gases along the way and forced to create gaps and that's what was happening)

In fact, in a duel in Drife, Logan is incapacitated by a combination of toxic gases and a local vacuum, and his heart is drained in depth.

(Considering that you are free to create a flow until you are connected to one of the Special Hands... I figured the versatility of this Embrio would be Yabe)

Essentially, Xuan Yu assumes what he can do to his opponent, contemplates his own tactics on it, and pushes the opponent to end it.

Figaro's opponents had less data, but her tactics and situational responsiveness were excellent.

Even against Zeta, she was thinking about what she could do to her < Embrio > and calmly analyzing what the other person was going to do to defeat herself.

…………

And the relative Zeta also guessed that Xunyu was reading that much from a move that would definitely keep Zeta away.

"… doubtful. I thought you were just a kid, but where did you get that knowledge and tactical eye?"

"Ha! If you spend years over here, you usually get one or two more knowledge. No!

"Naturally. Naturally, if you ask me. And your mental age should be ahead of your physical age."

Zeta thought a little that Logan, whom she was coaching, was not separated from his real and mental age.

Although it would be debatable to say which is a healthy mental age between Xunyu and him.

"Interest. Should there be spiritual growth due to the time spent. This is going to be one theme."

"Whatever my mental age is, stop whispering that tone, yo. Uh-huh."

…………

The tone, which is part of my identity, was cut with a word of "let's not," and Zeta's cheek moved just a little inside the bandage.

Zeta often also brings deposition-coolent images from members of < IF >, but as I was surprised by La Crima's explanation, it's not without emotion.

Rather, to the extent that you can't create a poker face without concealing your face with a bandage, you have emotions.

"… blocked. If you think so, you can stop it on your own."

"I'm going to, yo!

Xuan Yu's right arm, which was stretched, thrusts towards Zeta.

Zeta tried to defend it with a wall of air... and switched to evasive action.

Immediately afterwards, the right arm of Xun Yu flashed so as not to take the wall of air as one.

The blade on its right arm was not a nail, but a dagger that was gripped.

Super Martial Arts [Yinglong Teeth Sullin E]. It was through the air defense of Zeta by means of properties and defenses that increased the power of the MP.

I didn't use it from the beginning because it drained the MP when I used it, but I switched to a short settlement using it.

to settle before the opponent's depths hit themselves somewhere in the glued state.

…………

Zeta's own HP and END are among the brittle categories.

If you hit a blade that runs endlessly, you will be crushed [brooch] with the first blow, and you will die with the second blow.

Moreover, Xuan Yu's movements are not one-sided of the offense, but he continues to maintain a space where he can freely extend his arms into the hallway in response to Zeta's movements, not only by extending his arms, but by looking at the gaps and pulling them back.

The situation is detrimental to Zeta.

Zeta also has a low chance of winning if he fights like this, regardless of the difference in reach between what can be tailored to Xuan Yu by Righteousness.

Therefore, Zeta also decided to cut one of the trump cards she had kept secret.

"... three kinds"

"Three species. Individual combat, wide-area domination, wide-area extermination. Combat styles fall into these three categories, but I am all of them."

"... would na"

Words that Zeta inadvertently began to say. Xunyu responds to the conversation with surprise.

To elicit information in conversations with opponents, and… for the use of their own special skills.

While attacking with both hands and defending with his left foot, prepare to activate "Reach Out/Step Out Foot" with his right foot standing in the hallway.

"I've never seen anything more versatile than that. No wonder you can use all three styles, Sa."

Zeta's power to manipulate the air is all-purpose.

Individual combat type at a time when you can meet with Xuan Yu in this way.

If you manipulate the air in a wide area, you will be in control and annihilation.

"Agreed. I've only seen two more than mine in omnipotence."

"... there's quite a bit of you, Ka."

"Underground, because it won't arrive even if you compete for omnipotence against impenetrability and infinity"

Zeta said so thinking of a certain two < masters >, but Xunyu doesn't know the information.

"Problem. Back to the story, the three fighting styles I covered…"

Zeta stood three fingers,

"Of these three species - which is my true style?

……

It was like a quiz inquiry, but Xunyu understood its sincerity immediately.

Among the three types of correct answers… there is the most lethal way to fight for Zeta.

This question - is a pronouncement of annihilation that "I will kill you (...) with the real way of fighting (...)".

(Combat, domination, annihilation...! There's no way you can read which one they're coming with because they're too versatile!

But it is definitely an attack that can bring down Xuan Yu.

It is unclear whether it is correct to consolidate the defense or to evade.

(If you insist, get close, battle style! If you've taken a distance, it's a domination or annihilation style you're in danger of getting caught up in! If it's a battle style, there's a chance that Righteousness will come!

Heart drain by Absolute Steel, the most lethal skill in Zeta's known handbills.

Therefore Xunyu watched Zeta's movements with great care,

Zeta has confirmed that she is approaching with a swift feather.

"Kill."

Attempt to stop Zeta from approaching by controlling both hands of Tenaga Asinaga at full speed.

At the same time, the thermal battle of fire attribute magic is sprinkled without hating the expansion of combustion by oxygen.

But I notice the moment I radiate.

(... Oxygen level's back!

Now it's not vacuum or high concentration oxygen, it's usually back to near-air composition.

And at the same time that Xunyu notices, some of the hotlines capture Zeta,

- I penetrated that body like a mirage.

No, like a mirage, not.

It's the mirage itself.

(The first optical camouflage I used, a variation of it?)

Because Zeta herself is in a different place than she can see.

When Xunyu thought about whether to use the [symbol] of space search - he felt signs behind it.

"Huh!"

There is no doubt that it is Zeta, and Xunyu also illuminates and intercepts a heat line from his left foot wrapped around himself.

Tracked by the hotline, the signs go far away.

I don't feel touched, I don't feel taken with my guts.

The fact that it was wrapped around Tenaga Asinaga had prevented the use of the depths on the heart.

(Stopped...?

But I can't feel safe.

Keeping alert to another attack, Xun Yu activates the position of the invisible Zeta in the space search [symbol].

And I noticed.

"He... where are you going Da ⁉"

Zeta and I thought we were reacting... and we kept getting our distance from Xuan Yu.

The intent of the action is clear.

Ignoring Xun Yu, he turned to Tsanron and Elizabeth, his aim.

"... lick it, motherfucker. Break out your heart."

When I first found it in Space Search, I was first hand and didn't use any special skills because I didn't even know who my opponent's enemy allies or identities were.

But not now. Intruder… confirmed and captured Zeta's identity as an enemy.

Wherever you are in this royal castle, you can ambush with special skills.

Therefore, Xunyu activates his Special Skills to finish Zeta......,

…………

Notice the change again.

Different air, he said.

It is not a vacuum. Nor is it full of oxygen or toxic gases.

But obviously, when the air quality has changed, Xun Yu feels it.

"This ha, ……………"

notice at the same time.

That's what I was thinking to myself the other day.

If Zeta has taken a distance, it is......

"Activation. -" Space Absolute Control Zone (Uranos) "

The next moment, a wood-spirited voice sounds in the air,

The corner of the royal castle was enveloped by dazzling light and - tens of thousands of degrees (...) of high temperatures.

◇

"Da Da. Cremation of the corpse would be the culture of her country"

A short distance from the corner of the royal castle, which was completely burned down, Zeta shrugged so.

Zeta's [Chi Chi Chi Uranos] is a < Super Embrio > that controls the atmosphere as Xun Yu speculates.

It also covers optical camouflage and vacuum, oxygen filling, defense and even air cannons by controlling the density, composition and compression of the atmosphere.

When I was once in Gran Baroa, I also used an air barrier for diving.

However, because of its versatility, the output itself is not so high.

The more you can do, the more other resources you need or output drops, that's the law of < Embrio >, in the case of Uranos, the latter.

But I have the power to temporarily step it down.

That's the special skill, "Space Absolute Control Zone (Uranos)".

Skills that increase output only for a certain amount of time and exceed the limits of the force of atmospheric control.

In the former battle at < SUBM >, the sea water was pushed against the wall of air to make a big hole in the sea.

This time it's smaller than that...... but the complexity of the principle has different dimensions.

It is also possible to generate another atom based on the atoms that make up the air in a control that was only to such an extent as to separate the components of the air.

Uranos produced deuterium (...) and triple hydrogen (...) from atmospheric components - further causing a nuclear fusion reaction (...).

What happens by that is the production of helium and the release of enormous amounts of energy.

It is, in short, a water explosion.

However, there is no detonation with an atomic bomb, no residue of radioactive material, and it is a clean water explosion carried out at room temperature atmospheric pressure.

It was an extremely small reaction with additions and subtractions, and Zeta controlled it, including preventing radiation from leaking out of range during the reaction.

But still, it doesn't even fall to the energy it generates.

That's enough to wipe out the hallway where they were... and the enormous amount of energy hit Xun Yu directly.

"A. I am inherently a wide-area exterminator"

Pure water explosion… Having acquired the destructive power of a different digit called a nuclear fusion reaction, < super > shrugged so much in the spaces where the listener was gone.

But Zeta was cold sweating inside the bandage.

That should be it, too. The control of the "Sky Absolute Control Zone", including the nuclear fusion reaction, is… all manual manipulation by her thought (...).

Unlike the Code, which is macro-registered with skills and to some extent restricts and automates operations, she can erase herself if she makes a mistake such as the nuclear fusion reaction she performs in the manual.

It can be said that Zeta was also hunted down at the time when such swords of all blades were used.

Being wary of the depths and not being able to use super weapons (...) environment, the only thing that was decisive was the "Sky Absolute Control Zone".

"... a formidable enemy. You were one of the most powerful enemies I fought to break my finger, but you still couldn't stand this."

A direct blow of high heat comparable to a water explosion is not something that the human body can withstand.

In addition, Xuan Yu's lifeline had already been taken by Zeta.

There are accessories in Zeta's hand… [lifesaving brooch].

This is not a Zeta thing, it's a Xun Yu thing.

Zeta's hand is not touching Xun Yu when Zeta fleshes to Xun Yu.

I just moved my hand to plunder the sky.

That's [Bandit] 's basic skill… Steele.

Skills that have a low chance of stealing items boxes that are not anti-theft or their equipment.

Most importantly, Zeta's "Steel", [Bandit King], is Skill Level EX. If no measures are in place, even Steel can steal 100%.

That's how Zeta stole it - [Brooch].

Steal the [Brooch] before the opponent notices it, knocking in a lethal attack.

This is also one of Zeta's best tactics.

There are no accessories to replace them. Xun Yu's death penalty is definitive.

Keeping an eye on the burn often, Zeta was convinced of it.

"Disappearance confirmation. It's a very viable [necrolysis fairy], but the other day's duel with Figaro had confirmed that if it was super hot, it would disappear without a trace."

Therefore, Zeta's decision using the nuclear fusion reaction was correct.

- At the same time, it was incorrect.

…………

Pakin and I heard something smashing.

I look in my hand unexpectedly, but the [brooch] there isn't shattered.

It was the [brooch] worn by Zeta that crushed it.

"Huh!"

As Zeta turned slowly, in such a way as to target her cervical spine...... a golden prosthetic hand was stretched holding [Yinglong Fang].

"This, is...!

Zeta takes the distance in amazement.

But unlike before, the prosthetic hand did not move to chase Zeta.

Sounding giddy and rusty...... the blow crushing [the brooch] just drops to the ground saying it was the limit.

"- Ha,... finally... you've stopped talking... ka..."

Instead, those words reach Zeta.

Needless to say, the Lord of that voice... was a swift feather that should have burned out in a nuclear fusion reaction.

From the space that was Zeta's blind spot, he was stretching out his prosthetic hand, left only by his right arm, without even knowing the border between his clothes and his body.

"You... why, survive that explosion...!

"... once, evaporated... let me... ru... ze? Hit the precautions... naturally, Ga..."

Braided in clothing, fire-resistant magic [symbol].

By activating that protection... Xunyu escaped evaporation.

But not completely.

It is on a scale that the enormous calories comparable to the water bombs of the smaller ones exceed the defenses of the swift feathers, and the whole body is almost [carbide].

Still, I could move only because she was an undead [necropsy fairy].

That, too, was the limit.

"... chip..., so far... ka..."

So groaning, the body of Xunyu literally collapsed,

"... after, please..."

I almost said something... and it became dust of light.

[Yinglong Fang] and Tenaga Asinaga, who were on the verge of breaking Zeta's lifeblood, also disappeared with her death penalty.

[Bandit King] Zeta and [Corpse Immortal] Xunyu.

The settlement...... still closed the curtain with Zeta's victory.

…………

But Zeta's expression on the inside of the bandage is not excellent.

Shortly after he was sure of the victory, he was crushed [Brooch].

Or this is the battle that can't bring in [Brooch]...... if it was a duel that is the main battlefield of Xunyu, it would have been a match or a victory for Xunyu.

"Really... you were a mighty enemy, you were"

With a slight sense of defeat, he was honestly impressed with the good fight of Xuan Yu...... Zeta walked again for the purpose.

To be continued
