<h4>Chapter 435 Chapter 435 – Strings </h4>


    Thebatants didn''t even have time to react to the explosion happening in the south before a third enemy attacked Mundus.


    The timing had been perfect.


    No one had noticed the man with the two des until now, which meant that he had most likely been an Assassin in the past.


    An Assassin had two jobs.


    Getting closer to a target.


    And…


    CRRRRRRRRR!


    The man''s des moved at incredible speeds and attacked Mundus.


    It was like Mundus had been thrown into a meat grinder!


    Luckily, a dark green Barrier appeared around Mundus, sparing him from injury.


    However, his Zephyx was dropping fast!


    An instantter, a balloon of steel appeared between the two of them and expanded.


    Zarren''s puppet was pointing its hand towards Mundus, and Zarren kept using more and more Zephyx to expand the metal.


    BANG! BANG! BANG!


    The metal was being cut apart again and again, but the attacks were no longer reaching Mundus.


    At that moment, Mundus'' eyes turned icy.


    Nick felt an incredible amount of Zephyx getting summoned, and a momentter, new strings appeared.


    But this time, they were blood red!


    The strings were attached to Mundus'' left arm and to the de man''s left arm.


    The world seemed to shake.


    And then, both of their arms detached!


    There was no blood or any kind of wound!


    It was like they were puppets!


    A momentter, the two arms turned blurry, and when they became clear again, they had switched ces!


    Mundus'' left arm was now at the de man''s left shoulder and vice versa.


    In an instant, the arms reattached.


    SHING!


    A sword covered in ck runes appeared in Mundus'' right hand and, without hesitation…


    SHING!


    He cut his left arm off!


    Mundus'' left arm, which had turned into the de man''s left arm, was cut off and fell to the ground.


    At the same time, Mundus'' real left arm, which was now attached to the de man''s left shoulder, reached for the man''s right wrist and grabbed it.


    The man''s attacks stopped as he had lost the use of both of his arms.


    At the same time, the puppet in Mundus'' right hand started to dance.


    Next, more and more strings appeared around the de man.


    The de man tried to jump back, but the strings wouldn''t let him.


    The de man tried to cut the strings, but the only arm that was listening to him was being restrained by his other arm.


    He couldn''t even bite through the strings since his entire face was covered in corals.


    Meanwhile, Zarren kept fighting the other man with the gun.


    Even though the man was a level stronger than Zarren, he was so heavily injured that it was only a matter of time before Zarren won.


    "We need help!"


    Kevara''s voice echoed throughout the world again.


    Zarren gritted his teeth.


    What did they mean they needed help?!


    Those two were a Mid Hero and an Early Hero, and they were fighting one opponent who didn''t even have ess to a Barrier!


    Was the coral woman a Late Hero?!


    The next moment, Zarren''s eyes were filled with determination as he looked at the struggling man with the gun.


    A terrifying amount of Zephyx shot through the world, and thousands of steel sheets appeared around the gun man.


    BANG! BANG! BANG!


    In an instant, they all mped around the gun man.


    If the man still had ess to all of his limbs, he would be able to get out of this, but as it stood, he only had one arm left, and that arm was carrying his gun.


    Zarren looked with unbroken focus at the ball of metal.


    More and more sheets of metal surrounded the ball, but strangely, it didn''t expand or grow.


    That could only mean that it became denser.


    While this was happening, a man was charging past the liquid metal clouds and entered the other battlefield.


    This was the de man.


    However, he was covered in hundreds of strings, and his left arm had stopped restraining his right arm.


    This could only mean that the de man had fully fallen under Mundus'' control.


    At the same time, Mundus slowly floated after the man.


    It was obvious by the way he moved that he had to retain a high level of focus to keep the man under control.


    BANG!


    The steel ball in front of Zarren fell to the ground and made a gigantic crater.


    A momentter, Zarren charged towards the other battlefield as well.


    The battle in the sky intensified while the former battlefield on the ground became quiet.


    The only thing of note was a steel ball covered by roots.


    BANG!


    At that moment, when everything had be quiet, three small explosions came from the coast.


    Three more coral people appeared, butpared to the other three, these didn''t fly, and they were also not nearly as fast.


    Obviously, these three were not Heroes.


    The three of them quickly rushed towards the metal ball.


    One of them easily lifted the metal ball, and the three of them ran towards the north again.


    Inside the metal ball, Nick couldn''t sense any of this since he was too busy getting his bones ground into dust.


    The three coral people entered the water while carrying Nick''s metal ball.


    For the first time, Nick was actually inside the big sea to the north, but he couldn''t feel it.


    Naturally, Nick could use his ability to create a bit of light, but that would waste too much Zephyx.


    As far as he knew, there was still a big battle going on outside, and Nick needed all of his Zephyx in case he needed to run.


    Because of that, he was just enduring the Nightmare''s influence.


    After the three of them entered the water, the area became quiet again.


    However, up in the air, the battle seemed to reach a crescendo.


    More and more lightning was being thrown around, and even the clouds of liquid metal were vibrating.


    By the looks of things, the battle was desperate.
