My red energy swirled into drill shapes for a quick moment before I sent them surging toward the Blue Dragon.
Wham! Wham!
Strangely, although the Blue Dragon had not assimilated with the experimental mecha core yet, its resistance against my red energy was surprisingly high!
"What the hell, its so strong!" I gasped as my red energy drills failed to break the Blue Dragon down in one attack. However, I could sense that it couldn't stop my red energy entirely. It was barely holding itself together.
"One small component at a time then." I thought to myself determinedly and redirected my red energy to start attacking its vital biomech components.
Poof! Poof! Poof!
Bits and pieces of the Blue Dragon started to break down from everywhere.
GRAAAHHHHH!!!
It gave a roar of defiance and spun its fearsome head to glare at me.
However, I was quite far away from it, and safely out of the range of its Dragon Breath.
It whipped its massive wing-like fins around itself in a defensive act and started to focus entirely on speeding up the assimilation process with Clone.
If it somehow succeeded in assimilating itself with Clone, I was screwed.
Fighting against a trio of highly skilled horseys was already a nightmare.
I would definitely not be able to deal with a bunch of Blue Dragon clones.
At that moment, it was a race.
Either I kill the dragon first, and claim everything, or the dragon assimilate with the experimental mecha core first and gain complete immunity against me.
"Go for its brain." The Ancestor ordered.
pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ "Go!" I whispered as I released my thousand laser rifles and white mecha form, and manifested the barest minimum to resist the crushing water pressure, to give my red energy the maximum amount of strength I could muster.
At the same time, I did as the Ancestor ordered and sent my red energy to attack the biomech components that were in charge of its brain.
I did not go for the components near the experimental mecha core because the Darkblood Energy surrounding it made my red energy extremely sluggish.
Wham! Wham! Wham!!
I sent my red energy drills smashing against the Blue Dragon's head again and again and again.
Grahhhhh.
The Blue Dragon couldn't help but give out a groan of pain!
Poof! Poof! Poof!
The head components of its biomech enhancement started to fall apart bit by bit.
But I could also sense that the assimilation process was about to be completed!!
And judging by the rate of progress, the assimilation process would finish first!!
"We won't make it." I thought aloud with a sinking feeling spreading in my heart.
It was at that moment that the Ancestor revealed his trump card.
"Get closer, and release me in an exosuit." The Ancestor said.
I did not hesitate and immediately did as he said.
A few long seconds later, the small figure of the Ancestor's exosuit landed on the back of Blue Dragon's head which was still sticking out of the wing-like fins covering the rest of its body.
At the same time, I could sense that the Blue Dragon's assimilation process with the experimental core was right on the cusp of completion!
"Whatever you plan to do, do it now!" I shouted at the Ancestor. "It will be done any time now!"
After the words left my mouth, a bright light erupted from within the Blue Dragon!
Darkblood Energy coursed throughout its body and instantly healed every single wound that I had managed to cause.
Even the hard won damages I had inflicted on its head started to heal!!
"Damn it! Ancestor! Come back!!" I shouted in horror.
The Blue Dragon had fused with the experimental mecha core!! It was completely immune to my red energy! And by the Gods, physically it was completely way out of my league.
"If I don't escape now, it might be too late for me." My mind screamed out with a stunning realization that sent a deep chill running down my spine.
But if I left him then, the exosuit around him would probably last a minute at the very most before dispersing. Even if the Blue Dragon did not kill him, the water pressure would.
"Screw it! Let me make one last attempt to save the Ancestor, and the get the freaking hell out of here!!" I thought to myself as I manifested the strongest exosuit I could muster and dived after that damned old man.
GRRRRRRRRTAKTAKTAKTAKTAKTAKTAK!!!!!
An ominous sound rang out from within the Blue Dragon's body.
Whoosh!!
I fired all my thrusters and quickly reached the spot where I last saw the Ancestor.
"Ancestor!! Get your f*cking fat ass over here!! The Blue Dragon is about to go ballistic!!" I roared with all my strength.
But strangely for some reason, both the Ancestor and the Blue Dragon remained silent.
After a few seconds, I realized with a deep sense of relief that the Blue Dragon won't be making a move anytime soon. Its heartbeat had slowed down from ten beats per second to almost one beat every five seconds!
It had somehow fallen into a dormant state.
"What the hell is happening here?" I shouted at the damned old man.
But for a few seconds, only silence greeted me.
That damned old man had gone MIA on me!
"Big bro! The Ancestor is missing!" I shouted into my intercom.
"The Ancestor? Let him do whatever he wants! He'll be fine! Have you killed that damned head of the damned snake? Hurry the hell up!" My big bro roared at me as soon as he heard my voice.
"A Blue Dragon ate the head of the snake!" I shouted back at him. "The Ancestor approached the Blue Dragon earlier and went missing!"
Annoyingly, after I said that, I was greeted with silence from my big bro as well!
"Hello? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE? WHY IS EVERYBODY NOT SAYING ANYTHING!" I shouted at them both.
