I know not all the answers about what happened just now. Interface
explained that I was inside the actual watch due to my losing consciousness. He
explained that I could simply think myself awake and I will snap out of the
watch and be conscious once more, and that is exactly what happened, but it
happened so fast, I had to stop and adjust to the sudden everything that came
at me at once.
I stood up and not wanting to waste time by getting the answers about what had just happened, I focused every ounce of energy I have left in my body to accomplishing my mission, which is to destroy Sebastian’s army and arrest him for the crimes he has committed.
I stood up and not wanting to waste time by getting the answers about what had just happened, I focused every ounce of energy I have left in my body to accomplishing my mission, which is to destroy Sebastian’s army and arrest him for the crimes he has committed.
I climbed out of
the crater that the giant robot had forced me into and spun around on my heels,
looking for any signs as to where that enormous robot had gotten to. It was as
tall as the skyscraper that was still standing firm behind me, so I can’t see
how it would have gotten away so fast.
Sebastian must have left the
building as he would have spotted me standing on the edge of the crater by now
and would have spoken to me. There is a strong possibility that he has left
along with the robot, but the other equally strong possibility that he is just
focusing on something else and just haven’t noticed me yet.
Before I do
anything, I have to increase my strength for the third time. I quadrupled my
strength from what I had before, which means I have increased my strength by
six times from the first time I fought one of those robots back at the arena. I
wasn’t sure how strong I will have to be to defeat those giant robots, but the
power that flowed through me was intense. There’s no feeling like it. To the
outside world, I still look like a skinny weakling, but secretly I have the
strength of many men, possibly men Hulks combined, but I cannot be sure at the
moment. Whatever the comparison, I now am so strong, I instinctively knew that
I would be able to pick up a car with only one of my fingers – probably my
pinkie if I think about it.
I smiled to
myself as I thought, ‘I have more strength in my little finger than that robot
does in his entire body.’ I really wasn’t sure whether that was true, but I had
to believe it and that is all that matters. I increased my speed as well so
that I would be able to move blindingly fast. According to my watch, my maximum
speed is an even 1,000MPH, and that was good enough for me.
‘From the ashes
of defeat,’ I said to myself, preparing myself for the climatic showdown,
‘rises a lone man. With determination beyond any other, strength that can crush
mountains, speed that can rival that of jets, a hero is born. Defeating his
enemies, saving the world, all in a day’s work for Sebastian Spencer,’ and I
flew upwards, thinking that if I were to ever make another epic speech again, I
should probably not.
I flew high into
the air, reaching the top of the skyscraper in a matter of seconds. I felt the
air being pushed out of the way as I soared upwards, coming to a stop. The
hills surrounding me now looked like miniature bumps in the ground. And there
it was, in the distance. The walking robot from afar. It was moving slowly but
surely across the land, heading for a destination. I kicked off and soon I was
flying forward towards it. The strength in my body allowed me to reach top
speed within seconds. The land below me turned into a blur. I was nearing it,
my speed creating the illusion of it standing still with one leg in the air. I
pushed all the strength I could into my fists and readied for impact.
With precision, I
flew straight through the robot’s tough armour as if it was made of cotton. I
didn’t feel a thing as its armour buckled and broke into many pieces as I
entered from the back, before exploding out through the front. I wasn’t sure
how many important components I had ruptured, but flying straight through the
middle was sure to make some kind of impact. I slowed to a halt, waiting for it
to react. It was forced forwards before righting itself. The impact had surely
weakened it and millions of sparks flew out in every direction. I went in for
another attack, this time aiming higher. I struck once more, before swinging
around for a third. It fell to its knees.
The sound was
deafening. I wouldn’t be surprised if people on the other side of the world
could hear it.
And then it
exploded. The explosion was equally as loud, booming through the air, and due
to its size, it was as if it was going in slow motion as the fireball burst
free from the armour, reaching miles into the air, tearing apart the clouds.
All of the electrical components sizzled and sparked, creating tiny pulses of electric
bolts zooming through the smoke.
The robot was
defeated.
TO BE CONTINUED…
