Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode

Lightning flashed through the gaps in the broken armor. Slapping out as if wanting to rebel from within the cyborg's body.

Clyde continued to stream his lightning for a few moments and didn't want to end it until the cyborg showed signs that he was dead.

After a few moments passed, the head of the cyborg that had been continuously convulsing stopped. Then his red eyes glanced at Clyde who was above him.

Those eyes lit up even brighter and made a distinct hissing sound. Clyde widened his eyes. This is a clear sign of impending danger.

Clyde immediately drew the Elderglass Sword and then rolled away. That's when the laser beam shot from the cyborg's eye came out.

If Clyde didn't leave in time, the laser would have hit his head.

The rest of the group arrived around Clyde seconds later. They stared at the cyborg who was trying to get up.

Metal limbs were growing from his back. The metal limbs looked like spider legs and immediately moved to lift his body.

After that, the metal limbs moved quickly carrying the cyborg's body away from that place.

"He's going to run away!" Reed shouted.

"Don't worry. He can't get too far," said Rodney.

Clyde moved to catch up with the cyborg without saying anything.

All the group members immediately turned their eyes on him because Clyde was standing out with the lightning surrounding his body.

"I still remember him saying not to interfere," Rodney remarked while looking at Clyde.

"Isn't that great? With him here, we can beat the cyborg faster," Sonya answered his words.

"Yeah, I guess so," said Rodney. 'But why did he suddenly change his mind?'

"What are you guys doing? We have to catch up with him!" Asqa said.

Asqa's words made them all realize and immediately rushed to catch up with Clyde and the cyborg.

*DRAAK*

*DRAAK*

*DRAAK*

...

The limbs that look like spider legs stick into buildings and make the cyborg look more like a spider crawling over the walls of buildings to escape.

The condition of his armor also looks worse than before. Several strands of lightning were still visible on the cyborg's body.

Then the further he crawled on the buildings, the armor part fell because he was no longer able to sustain the damage after the damage he had suffered.

The cyborg seemed to be hanging on by a very thin thread. Even after undergoing the transformation, he still couldn't stand against the strength of his attackers.

The cyborg's eyes caught Clyde's very conspicuous arrival. The lightning that surrounded him looked so bright in the middle of the night.

The cyborg's computer brain repeatedly shouted a distress signal. Clyde's arrival made all the systems in his body alert.

But what can the cyborg do? The attacks from Clyde and all the players attacking him simultaneously were much stronger than he could handle.

All the contracts he had made with that red-haired girl were now meaningless.

He has given up all his body to be cut open and turned into a robot with the promise that he will get enough strength to avenge his mother.

But, what did he get now? He was almost killed by the attacks from Players who should be weaker than him!

'Grrrhh! FUCK ALL OF THIS!'

The cyborg suddenly stopped. He is now attached to the wall of the building with his metal spider legs. His eyes glanced at all the players who were chasing him.

This situation seemed to say that he was prey and all players were predators who could eat him at any time. No, the cyborg can't allow that.

The computer system in his brain kept telling him to run as far away from them as possible. However, the cyborg insisted on staying and fighting. Betrayed all the systems in his body that kept him alive.

The rage bubbling up in his human brain took over the computer brain that was trying to say that now was the time to run.

All the armor on the cyborg's body changed shape again according to orders from its human brain. They were no longer the armor that protected his body but turned into various kinds of weapons linked to the metal limbs.

Swords, axes, shields, rifles, and spears, are all around the cyborg's body. The weapons were within close reach.

But it also left the cyborg's naked main body exposed clearly. On his neck, there was still a gaping wound caused by Rodney and made worse by Clyde.

Rodney frowned. "What the hell? Why did he suddenly open his body before his armor was destroyed?"

Asqa turned to Rodney. "This hasn't happened before?"

"No." Rodney shook his head. 'Previously I had to wait for the other Players to sacrifice themselves to destroy the armor. There shouldn't be another transformation after that!'

The reason Rodney was able to defeat the cyborg in his previous turns was that he made use of several Players weakening the cyborg's armor.

At that time, four Players attacked the cyborg desperately until they finally died at the hands of the cyborg. It was then that Rodney took the opportunity and killed the cyborg then killed the dying Players.

But now, it turns out that things are going a bit differently than the previous turns. Rodney turned to Clyde. Was it all because of him?

Clyde's presence creates several changes in the Selection Stage due to his strength that exceeds the scale.

Maybe the cyborg was triggered by Clyde's power and felt that he should be aggressive now.

If so, that's a good thing. By turning its strongest defense into a weapon, the cyborg was no longer protected.

Even if his attack power had increased many times, that wouldn't make any difference to the fate that would befall him with the presence of the seven of them delivering attacks together.

Clyde only glanced briefly at the rest of the group. Without saying anything else, they already knew what they had to do.

"HRAAAAHHH!!!"

The cyborg let out a scream from his ravaged throat. So that the sound that comes out of it sounds like a combination of human screams in pain and a malfunctioning machine.

The cyborg catapulted itself toward Clyde. Sword in the left hand, and rifle in the right hand. He fired the rifle at Clyde while closing in.

Clyde is deflecting all the lasers heading his way. Then the cyborg landed in front of him and immediately swung his sword.

*CLANG!*

Clyde felt that the power behind the sword swing was stronger than before. He wondered if it was because of the anger that seemed to be burning inside the cyborg.

Clyde could also see the cyborg's eyes full of anger and... pain? He couldn't be one hundred percent sure of what he was seeing at this moment especially when they were engaged in an intense fight.

It's just... if indeed it is anger and pain, that means there is still a human mind left inside that cyborg.

Is he just a monster that was created to be a BOSS in this Chapter or a human that was tricked into being forced to become a BOSS?

Clyde didn't know which was right. Suddenly he became curious and intended to ask Agatha that later.

For now, any answer about identity is irrelevant. Because he just had to kill him.

They fought hand to hand for a few moments until finally, the others started to join in the fight.

Shots from Sonya came first to start their arrival. The cyborg can still raise one of the shields he controls through the metal limbs so that Sonya's shots fail to hit him.

But then Eric and Mona came from the side of the shield with incredible speed. They slashed their swords simultaneously at the metal limb holding the shield.

*KRAAK!*

The shield fell to the ground as the metal limb holding it snapped. After that from behind them both Rodney and Mona sent out their blackish sword slashes simultaneously.

"Clyde is still there!" Asqa screamed.

Indeed, Clyde is still involved in close combat with the cyborg. And the two black sword slashes shot toward the cyborg and Clyde.

"He should be able to dodge it with ease!" Rodney replied to Asqa's shout.

Unfortunately, Rodney's words are not entirely true. Although in the end, Clyde was able to avoid it, he didn't do it easily.

Clyde managed to jump to avoid it. However, the tip of the sword slash hit his waist.

Even though the injuries he sustained were not too severe due to the protection of the Dark Night Coat, he still suffered from one.

Due to that slash, Clyde also spun in the air and finally lost his footing.

*CRACK!*

Clyde's foot landed at an odd angle and he was sprained instantly.

*BANG!*

*BANG!*

Another sword slash hit the cyborg. Because of that, his attention was diverted to the Regressors who were attacking him.

Fortunately, with his Stats maxed out, Clyde can be freed from the sprains in an instant.

However, the wound on his waist was still there because it came from a Skill with a maxed Level.
