BIOLOGICAL SUPERCOMPUTER SYSTEM-Chapter 1109: Levium (26)

Erik and Uncle Benjamin continued their aerial duel. The surrounding sky looked like it had just came out of an apocalyptic movie.

Erik's wings strained against the invisible force of Levium's telekinesis. Every movement was a battle in itself.

"You're tiring, Erik," Uncle Benjamin said. "How long can you keep this up?"

Erik gritted his teeth, refusing to show weakness.

"How long can YOU keep this up? I bet the amount of energy you are using must not be low."

"Don't worry about me. I have plenty of mana left."

Yet Levium was shocked by how well Erik was holding against him in a pure brain-crystal power fight. He must have had similar levels of mana to him.

Erik summoned a whirlwind, sending it hurtling towards his opponent. The funnel of air picked up shards of glass and twisted metal along the way, transforming into a deadly cyclone.

Levium's eyes widened slightly, but his reaction was swift. With a gesture, he created a shield of debris to protect himself and used a huge chunk of his mana to dissipate the whirlwind energy.

Yet, Shrapnel pinged off the barrier and rained down on the battlefield below.

"Is that all?" Levium taunted.

Erik struck back with a powerful attack. He created a swarm of ice spears, each as big as a person's arm and sharp enough to cut through metal. These flew at high speed, leaving trails of frost behind them, making the surrounding area colder. There were so many ice spears that it looked like there was a winter storm.

Levium's parallel will sprang into action. He seized control of several floating chunks of concrete and hurled them at Erik's attacks with equal velocity.

The ice spears kept traveling toward him but were severely reduced in speed. That made the older man able to avoid them easily.

"It's my turn now, Erik!"

Not wasting a moment, Levium counterattacked. Erik expected that already; he would have done the same. However, he didn't expect Uncle Benjamin's next move. A huge crate among the debris below surged into the sky.

Uncle Benjamin exerted tremendous pressure on the crate, causing it to buckle and shatter. The contents spilled forth. For a moment, the objects obeyed the laws of physics and plummeted to the ground. Until they did no more.

A stronger pull got a hold of them, and they began their ascent.

Then Erik saw them well enough to understand what they were.

"Are those?"

"You are seeing it right, Erik... Those are bows, specially made for me by Elara 'Steelhand' Winston herself!"

Elara Winston, known as Steelhand, was Nokisi Point's best crafter. She was the one who created brain crystal equipment.

If that was true, though, that meant that all those bows were brain crystal weapons.

Uncle Benjamin, at that point, made the bow levitate around him. Countless arrows surged through the sky, directed to the bows.

"Fuck."

Erik's eyes narrowed, focusing on the bows floating around Uncle Benjamin. He channeled mana and unleashed a barrage of wind blades toward them.

"I must destroy them!"

The air whistled as the invisible blades sliced through it, racing towards their targets.

The wind blades cut through several bows, splintering the finely crafted weapons into useless fragments.

But Erik destroyed only around 40 of the bows before Uncle Benjamin started knocking the arrows onto the remaining 60.

The older man's eyes widened in surprise, as he did not expect Erik's reaction to be that quick. However, the 60 bows, which remained intact, already pointed at Erik.

"Nice try!" Uncle Benjamin sneered. "But you'll need to do better than that to stop me."

Erik tucked his wings and dove, the projectiles whistling past him. He could feel the displaced air ruffling his hair.

The problem was that all of these bows were brain crystal weapons. They were able to create a myriad of different effects.

Some were faster than the others; someone exploded; someone made the area its arrows traveled decrease in temperature.

There were even some that left a weird floating trace of hardened material, sharp as a blade.

Erik protected himself as he could, creating wind and ice shields. That worked, but some of the arrows pierced dangerously deep through the shields.

"SHIT!"

Uncle Benjamin reached out with his telekinesis, grabbing hold of a nearby skyscraper. The building groaned as it was torn from its foundation, windows shattering as it rose into the air. Erik's eyes widened. "Again? You're insane!" he said. "How many people are you willing to kill?"

Sleb Harbor had been basically destroyed at that point.

Levium's face was cold. "As many as it takes to bring you down."

With a gesture, he sent the building hurtling towards Erik. The massive structure blocked out the sun.

Erik's mind raced. He couldn't dodge this time because the building was too massive. He looked below, seeing his Chimaeric Demons decimated, but the troops Levium had with him were in the same situation.

<Guys,> Erik said.

<Yes, master?>

<Tell the others to come here... I... I can't kill him alone, not like this... His brain crystal power

is too strong.>

<We will, master...>

Summoning every ounce of power he could muster, Erik pumped his force-bastion brain crystal power into his wings. That way, he could get much faster than the speed at which Levium sent the building to him. The problem was, he wasn't sure he could avoid the building, and even if he did, there was no assurance he could escape Uncle Benjamin's sight.

Parallel Will, pumped with that much mana, was a real menace.

Erik flew. The force generated by the Force Bastion made him incredibly fast. He was at least twice as fast as he usually was.

Erik struggled to control his flight. The Force Bastion brain crystal power made him incredibly

fast, but it came at a cost. He was moving so quickly that his brain couldn't keep up with what he was seeing; he couldn't steer as well as he normally could.

<Yet the mother fucker is still looking at me...>
