Titan Rising Online: World Breaker
Chapter 171 171: Heroic In The ApocalypseCole took a deep breath and swerved hard to the left, he moved right behind Irma's strider, taking a face full of black dust, but he barely responded to it as raised his right hand and blasted out with a shockwave of [Gravity] blasting a group of zombies that had gotten a little too close to her away. By this point the trucks were already slowing down as they slowly caught up to them, but it was barely enough as they could not slow down beyond a certain speed, and somehow, weirdly a lot of the zombies were able to keep up with the 70 kilometers an hour speed that the striders were putting out.
Of course it wasn't all of them, but they were slowly inching away from the Babel Tower, but the damn building itself was leaning precariously over the side, almost as if it was going to fall over them. Even at that there were still zombies jumping out of it, and debris not just from their fall but from that abomination still up in the building looking for who to snack on. Cope hoped though that Marshall was dead…..he deserved to be eaten. But in that moment perhaps the Karma of wishing somebody dead caught up to him as his strider hit a nasty bump hidden under the thick coating of black dust.
*Thump!*
*Kiriiiinnnnnnn!*
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe strider revved as it gave a soft screeching sound while flying up into the air. Right into the waiting arms of a falling zombie, or it would have been if a massive spray of bullets did not come flying his way, ripping the zombie into so many shreds that left Cole very much covered in gore and zombie rot, he growled out in anger and turned to look at the zombie dog that lent unnecessary help, grunting as the strider's rudder sank into the ground. The only response he got back from the Canine was.
"I Am The Grand General Dipshit! Hahahahaha!"
At the very least one of them was having fun. Cole pushed the Strider as hard as he could as he came up right besides Irma and the General. He turned and took a deep breath, not noticing that his dull yellowish eyes took on a blue shade then into a blackish red shade as Cole summoned a [Chaos Blast] that he shaped and began to spin. There was a central node which was a massive reddish black orb that now hard reddish blades spinning rapidly around it. Cole smiled so sleepy it was as 8f the grin would spilt his lips and cheeks.
This was living the dream, it was not as if other players had not been to replicate some of the most iconic moves from media for the last couple centuries. There have been thousands upon thousands of variations of this move, but this was the first time Cole pulled it off as it required an incredibly high level of [Energy Manipulation] a skill that he has never been lucky enough to get or had thought he needed before filling up his stats with skills he couldn't properly control or take to the next level. Either way as homage to one of the greatest anime character and anime moves ever, Cole presented the zombies chasing after them with a rather chaotic gift.
[Naruto Style: Chaotic Rasen-Shuriken]
Not it was not a real move and no it was not a skill. But what it was…. Is beautiful. Cole the blades surged forwards screeching and screaming as they expanded behind proportions, reaping the zombies at a rate that was almost impossible to follow. It was is if he had put a meat grinder right in their midst. Blood and guts and bevy of shredded limbs flew into the air, staining it red with the blood midst that it left behind. Cole wasn't sure his ancestors alive during the time of the run of the Naruto anime appreciated just effective this bloody move was. It was shredding everything down to the molecular level, and that was something that frankly speaking Cole found scary, or course when you Chaos energy into the mix, well....
*BOOOOOOM!.......WHOOOOOOSHHHHHH...….CRASSHHHHHHH!*
In the time that Cole had to prepare the wind shuriken rip off of Naruto, Irma had gotten onto the open back of the truck at the back of the convoy, right in the waiting arms of her mercenary company. The explosion and the subsequent shockwaves blasted Cole off his strider, and flung him over the truck itself. Within the air, held thickly and wrapping around him softly like a mother's embrace was Chaos, reality cracked as random things across the universe seemed pop and break, or just get tossed around in a chaotic mess. Cole shuddered as he righted his body in the air, twisting in a smooth motion that had the jaws and eyes of the mercenaries around open wide in shock.
For Cole it was almost as if everything was moving in slow motion as he landed on the back of a truck that was in the middle of the convoy. His feet skidded back for a few moments leaving a trail of black dust and blood before Cole came to a stop and turned his eye over to look at the desolation he had wrought.
Hundreds of undead were no more but there was also a crater the size of a lake in the middle of the road. Cole could smell it all the way from over here, he could hear it's call. The Chaos was becoming more and more a part of him each day. But then ultimately it was not a bad thing, Chaos was order in itself, you just had to understand how to navigate it's currents. Cole shook his head as he stood taller, the wind blowing as the sun rose behind him. It's rays touched his body, giving him a glow that seemed to make him almost epic and heroic. An a avenging demon…. A fallen angel…..a World Breaker.

And then the moment was gone, ruined by an insufferable television hero zombie bionic dog that had lost its mind in undeath. Cole growled out in anger, he loved dogs but this shit stain was rapidly beginning to make Cole change. He shrugged as he looked back in the direction they had just come from, the shadow of the Babel Tower was rapidly getting smaller and smaller. But Cole could still feel it, it was almost as he had left an extra wound and scar on this world from just using the [Chaos Blast] variation that he did, perhaps he was being paranoid but Cole couldn't help the feeling that perhaps he had broken something…..but what?
"Hey! How long are you going to keep standing there like a fool, get down!" Irma had barely finished her sentence when Cole appeared in front of her, using her own shadow as he had utilize [Shadow Dance] without even thinking. He breathed softly realizing that there was no pain, which mean he had access back to his movement and teleportation skills. Which was great, Cole did not exactly feel completely without them being accessible to him.
Irma took a few steps backwards with a scowl on her face. It was obvious Cole quite got under her skin in ways that she couldn't yet understand. Well neither did Cole and he honestly did not care. He turned to see that most of the people in the truck were new faces, the only person he actually recognized apart from Irma was Marshall. And upon seeing the man Cole let out a cold 'tsk' then rolled his eyes. It was a shame the fucker was still alive, maybe Cole could arrange for a random accident somewhere down the line in the future.
"Take a seat Aspirant, we have a long drive ahead of us and there could still be more trials for us ahead ." then she turned away from him and faced the driver of the truck they were on and asked. "Kira give me a report of everything that happened after I got separated from the group." From where Cole was still standing he saw the driver nod her head as she began to give Irma the report she asked for, telling her about everything that had happened after Cole absconded with their leader.
Cole did not let it bother him though as he moved through the mercenaries to take a seat at the back, close enough that he could jump out should anything go wrong, but far enough he doesn't get attacked by some leaping donkey Kong zombie Pac man shit!..... Damn new age slangs were a mouthful. Either way Cole felt relaxed, and with that he finally decided to lay attention to his notifications. The moment the screen opened up in front of him, his eyes bugged out in shock at the sheer list of, and the thing responsible for it was right at the top.
