When the two sides got close enough, the monsters started to clash against him using their deadly claws, augmented by their various elements.
"You aren't a match for me," William knew the moment he got closer, this clash was already concluded in his favour. He was as strong as them in terms of spirit power, but his elements were all top notch. Not to mention his weapons.
The knives rolled on and started to kill monsters one by one. As for his sword, he kept slashing and chopping all the claws coming his way, ending up wounding the monsters at least, without getting any harm in return.
"Watch your back!" but just when he killed four of them, and was this close from killing another three, Sith's warning shout came and startled him.
*Fwoosh!*
Without even thinking about it, William instantly dashed forward and jumped twice in a row. First, he crossed fifty metres in one breath, before using his ten metres technique to jump between three points that weren't at the same line with each other.
And when he did that, he heard muffled explosions happening at the spot he was just at, accompanied by five roars.
"Oh, you sent five silver grade copies to stop me?! I'm flattered!" William didn't need to even clash with these copies to know they were different.
Just from the vibe they gave him, he knew they were a step higher than those he dealt with before.
"But… This isn't enough to stop me!" William knew that going by common sense and logic, he should be trembling his pants right now.
But that wasn't true. Even if there were five of them, William didn't even feel fear or panic at all. And that was all thanks to his gears and technique.
"That's why monsters can never be stronger than humans," William roared back, flashed just one time, using his sword to clash against the fire, ice, lightning, darkness, and even weird ore-like attacks that came from these five with his sword and armour.
He kept jumping forward, crossing the distance and crushing the incoming attacks using his lightning element and gears. The monster this time gathered a bit of remarkable elements, even including his rare lightning one.
But to William, this was all nothing. Fire was already a common element that paled greatly in front of his lightning. As for ice and ore-like elements, they might be special ones, one step ahead of the common fire element, but not that strong to even contend against his lightning.
Darkness was already weaker against lightning. And only lightning could contend against itself, but William depended on his gold grade sword to crush the incoming lightning attack of the monster, giving his element the edge it needed to crush its foe.
That monster's lightning attack was like a dancing bolt, zigzagging in the air as it travelled quite fast like an arrow. But when its top got to meet with William's sword, it crumbled and cracked, before vanishing fast on the spot.
"Thanks for sending five of your elites for me to kill this easily," the next moment, William jumped again, and this time he covered three of the monsters with his sword, aiming directly at their heads with each slash.
As he did that, these three tried to hit him back with the help of another two. The three he attacked weren't that threatening to him. After all, they got hit faster by his sword before their claws even could move half the distance towards William's face.
But the other two were indeed this close to take his head down!
*Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!*
Just when the monster thought his attack would link and hit William's head, the latter got his knives out of nowhere, controlled them to hack through these monsters' arms, necks, chest, and bodies, killing them right on the spot.
"Do you take me for a fool? I already sat my eyes on all of the five of them, not just these three… What an idiot!" William smirked while watching the five silver grade clones fall to the ground.
They came fast and died fast as well. William stood in his place while his knives did the remaining work, killing all the still standing bronze grade monsters in no time.
These clones wouldn't give him any cores, only materials. He didn't plan on getting anything for himself, just moved his knives to do the cutting and separate these monsters into smaller body parts.
"Sith, more materials are waiting for you here… Come and store them away," William just shouted this as the team was already coming fast towards his direction.
The reason he felt such happiness in killing these clones was the damage he'd deal to this monster. Killing five silver clones of it would take away five kilometres of distance this monster could keep annoying him and others within.
"This… Thanks," Sith arrived with his team just after the battle ended, looking at the many monster parts scattered around before pointing towards his team to store them.
"Let's go," William motioned for him and others to start following him.
"No, we shall go this way, it's better," but just when William was about to head towards a random direction, Sith stopped him as he pointed towards a totally different one.
"What makes this better?"
"We got a trap laid out right there," one of the team members spoke up, "we designed an escape route for every trap we laid for the monsters chasing you."
"What a good move," William didn't hide his admiration, "from where you guys are again?"
He knew such a rare concept was enough evidence that this team came from a formidable place. He struggled to make his team grasp the importance of this concept. And Sith's team did it like it was something that their lives depended entirely on, something they always used to do.
In his eyes, this was a very true belief, one he hoped to dig deep inside his team's minds.
"We came from far," Sith answered, in such a vague way that made William know this dude didn't want to expose anything about their origins.
"Cool!" William didn't try to dig deeper about this, "like I said, I'm going to help you for one day then I'll be gone."
