BXBX NOVEL Chapter 330 Instinct
All of a sudden, the enemy made a spear appear in his hands, and it wasn\'t like the others Jake had seen so far. It was a weapon made entirely of flames, and it made the air around it vibrate like crazy… Jake wondered how the enemy could hold that without being burned. Unless he was a humanoid dragon that had Fire Resistance: Fire Immunity, and Fire Absorption, it didn\'t seem like a good idea to touch something like that…
The enemy charged at Jake and tried to stab his head. Jake blocked the strike, but he felt a terrible heat coming from the weapon, but only for a moment. He was sent flying to the distance… after rolling on the ground several times, he got up only to see the enemy right above him.
"Finally, some real challenge here," Jake thought while smirking.
Jake swung his sword from the side, and then the weapons collided. The impact caused a shockwave that pushed away all the enemies nearby, making them fall or fly several meters Away. Still, the enemy wasn\'t. Despite not having any footing During the attack, he pulled that off… Jake hated to admit it, but he was losing in the strength department…
When the enemy landed on the ground, he used speed instead of strength. Several quick stabs aimed at his head were used. Thanks to the size of his sword, Jake managed to protect himself, but he truly didn\'t see most of the thrusts. That triggered him a little… he didn\'t expect to find an enemy that could best him in terms of speed and power there. Still, he liked that… It means that it was probably the strongest card in the enemy\'s hands.
While Jake was wondering how he could deal with such an enemy, he heard the sound of the flying black ops archers approaching and firing their crossbows.
Jake jumped away from the enemy with all his might and then spun in the air before firing Mana Blades toward all of them.

Jake didn\'t have time to deal with them, and while he let them hit him with the bolts, Jake disposed of all of them instantly. It was worth the cost… still, that gave to the enemy an unexpected opportunity. The cybernetic spearman suddenly threw his spear at Jake, and he was unable to dodge it.
Although he protected himself with his sword, the weapon caused a massive explosion that sent him flying in the opposite direction at supersonic speeds… in the end, Jake hit his back against one of the metallic buildings around, and he felt his body being crushed by the pressure.
Jake\'s health dropped to dangerous levels, and while he was falling, he saw the enemy creating another flame spear. That couldn\'t be good… that control over the fire element and resistance… the enemy truly looked more and more like a dragonnewt…
"I can\'t fall here… not before I learn what I need to learn…" Jake thought.
In the end, Jake was forced to rely on the power of the sins… the enemy prepared to throw another spear at him, and surviving another blast of that level would be too much. Still, even in that situation, Jake noticed something else… when he saw one of the guys he had killed before landing on the top of the new enemy\'s fire spear and being burned to a crisp… that made the weapon lose some stability for a short while and delayed the cybernetic spearman… if even for a second only.
"It can\'t be helped…" Jake said after he enhanced his sword with Frozen Touch and the dark flames.
When the enemy threw the spear, Jake used Mana Blade, and a crescent moon-shaped attack made of dark ice flew toward the weapon. Both projectiles collided and exploded in the spot midway through those two. They completely nullified each other…
The power of attack had been more powerful than Jake had expected… he had such an idea when he faced Helena in his previous life. It was basically a copy, but he couldn\'t care less either way. He couldn\'t allow himself to fall now.
The blast made all the buildings nearby tremble as well as pushed away the annoying enemies that could take Jake\'s attention, if even for a short while. Still, when the smoke caused those attacks ended, Jake saw the enemy preparing another flame spear… it was truly a powerful attack, but spamming like that was stupid… it truly made him confirm that the enemy was being controlled by those people with the helmets… that was the chance that Jake had been waiting for.
Although all of the dark flames had been consumed in the previous attack, Jake summoned more and used the same combination. Thanks to the Sinful Ruler class, Jake\'s dark flames were a lot more powerful than before, so his next attack made the explosion happen a lot closer to the enemy.
The attack made a lot of smoke emerge in the area again, and the cyborg spearman was already preparing another flame spear when Jake suddenly approached from the sky and then slashed his sword at him. The weapon didn\'t have that many dark flames left since Jake was mentally tired, but at least it helped him pierce some of the cybernetic parts of the enemy.
When the archer fell from the sky, Jake realized that while someone was controlling the enemy, they had access to their skills and basic parameters but not to the enemy\'s instincts. Something as noticing the enemy approach from above in the sky was relatively simple, but the one controlling the spearman from a distance would never realize that…
Despite that… even controlling someone of that level had its merits… for one, the one behind the enemy couldn\'t feel pain. So, despite the wounds on the spearman, he still attacked Jake with his flame spear… Jake only had time to enhance his left arm with Frozen Touch and the dark flames before blocking the attack, and then another explosion happened…
