Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle-Chapter 1039: Lancelot’s Secret Skill
"Enough tricks!" Lancelot roared as he realized that Shane had to reload for a few moments!
His aura surged, and both bodies moved in perfect rhythm.
One unleashed a wave of blue energy that split the ground, while the other darted forward with terrifying speed.
His Blue Emperor Set amplified his strikes that forced Shane to retreat!
But Shane was no ordinary gunman. He vanished with Shadow Step, reappearing behind one Lancelot, with revolvers already raised.
Bang!
The bullet struck, chains of light wrapping around the body. It was the Shackling Bullet again!
Yet before Shane could capitalize, the second Lancelot cut through the chains with an invisible sword!
"Tch..." Shane then charged forward with Armored Dash...
His Bio‑Armor braced for impact as he rammed into one Lancelot, knocking him back.
Bam!
At the same time, his revolvers fired again!
Bang!
The bullet exploded into a fiery blast that shook the ground.
The crowd gasped as dust and stone flew into the air. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
However, Lancelot’s helm glowed, granting him heightened awareness. He then turned to the side, avoiding the worst of the blast, then countered with Phantom Rush, his body blurred as both forms struck from opposite sides.
Shane immediately stored his revolvers and crossed his blades in an instant, activating Swordmaster’s Domain!
His aura expanded, and with the effects of the Domain, his ability to use the sword had become better and at the same time, enemies within 10 meters suffer reduced evasion against sword attacks!
As the battle continued, it became difficult for the others to follow what was happening.
Indeed, the soldiers watching could barely keep up.
"These top rankers are too strong. They’re monsters!"
"Every strike shakes the ground!"
Shane didn’t care about their words as he unleashed Vortex Spin, deflecting both Lancelots’ strikes, then followed with Double Thrust, piercing one chestplate...
Lancelot smirked. "Your tricks won’t save you now."
His cape glowed, and both bodies unleashed Energy Wave, twin blasts of violet energy tore across the battlefield!
"Hmph!"
Shane countered with Telekinetic Storm!
[ Telekinetic Storm Lv5: Release a burst of psychic energy that disrupts enemies within a 10‑meter radius.
Effects:
Deals light mental damage over 4 seconds.
Cost: 20 Spirit Points ]
An invisible force disrupted Lancelot, then Shane used his Veiled Steps and continued forward with Silent Execution, his blade aimed at Lancelot’s throat!
[ Silent Execution Lv5: A precision strike designed for assassinations, dealing bonus damage when attacking from stealth or behind.
Effects:
Deals +20% bonus damage when striking from behind.
Ignores 15% of enemy defense if used while undetected.
Cost: 25 Spirit Points ]
The strike was perfect, but the Blue Emperor Set pulsed, absorbing the blow.
Lancelot retaliated instantly with his sword!
Shane then blocked by relying on his Bio-Armor and his Aura Sentinel and just like that, sparks flew as steel scraped against the armor...
The duel became chaos.
Shane’s Titan’s Roar shook the battlefield, forcing both Lancelots to wobble. Shane then followed with Afterimage Burst, his body splitting into multiple shadows that attacked from multiple angles.
However, Lancelot’s helm glowed again, cutting through the illusions, his dual forms striking at the real Shane!
"Not bad..." Shane muttered as he realized that he was being forced to use all his skills here.
At this time, he activated Stormbreaker Talent, and the battlefield erupted into a tempest.
[ Stormbreaker (Epic Talent): The Survivor harnesses the fury of the storm in battle. Your physical attacks have a 10% chance to release a shockwave of lightning.
Active Skill - "Tempest Crash": Summons a burst of storm energy around the Survivor, dealing moderate lightning damage to everyone within 15 meters for 30 Spirit Points. (Cooldown: 3 minutes) ]
It was only a cheap 30 Spirit Points for 15 meters! The only downside of this Tempest Crast was the fact that it doesn’t differentiate between friends or foes.
However, in this duel, that didn’t matter!
Nonetheless, Lancelot’s armor glowed brighter, absorbing the storm’s fury.
His dual forms continued on, relying on their Set’s Effect!
One of the Lancelots moved and used Decapitation Strike!
His blade aimed at Shane’s neck, while the other unleashed another Energy Wave, tearing through the tempest!
Shane’s Death Glimpse, however, was triggered and saw him getting beheaded...
Immediately, he blocked one strike, dodged the other, then countered with Soul Rend!
[ Soul Rend Lv5: A focused strike that targets the enemy’s spirit, bypassing some physical defenses.
Effects:
Deals 5% of the target’s maximum vitality as spirit damage.
Reduces regeneration by 15% for 5 seconds.
Cost: 20 Spirit Points ]
The attack tore at Lancelot’s spirit. One body faltered, but the other remained unaffected.
At this point, everyone watching was nervous. They truly had no idea who would win. Although it was only a one-versus-one battle, it had become two‑versus‑one, and Lancelot was holding on remarkably well.
"Shane... Be ready!"
Lancelot suddenly roared and one of his bodies began to change...
Muscles bulged, armor plates expanded, and in an instant, his size doubled.
Bam!
The ground cracked beneath his feet as the transformed Lancelot towered over Shane like a giant.
Gasps erupted from the crowd.
"He’s... growing larger!"
"What kind of ability is that?"
Yet the other Lancelot remained the same...
Shane smirked at the sight... "So you’ve been hiding this all along..."
Then, his golden blades vanished and were replaced by a single weapon that radiated an aura unlike any other.
It was his Mythic Sword, Eon Edge!
But the moment Shane gripped the hilt, his body stiffened. His fingers trembled, his arms felt heavy, and a creeping sensation spread across his skin.
He looked down in shock. His flesh was hardening, turning gray.
"Petrification..." Shane muttered as he glanced at Lesley’s position.
However, it wasn’t Lesley who was doing it...
It was the transformed Lancelot!
He thought that the big Lancelot would use brute force! Instead, he had used this mystical ability!
Suddenly, the normal Lancelot darted forward, aiming to kill Shane!
However, Shane’s Bio‑Armor moved and resisted the petrification as best as it could...
He then activated Resilience Protocol, a Skill he obtained from A.I. Rebellion, and soon, his aura surged to slow the stone creeping across his body...
"Come!" Shane shouted as he looked at Lancelot’s sword coming right at his face...
