I began to balance the swords again, which cut through the lorgs with ease. Slowly, I extended the chain to cover more ground. Gradually, I realized the correct way to handle the swords.
It wasn't enough just to spin the blades or make circles to attack enemies. The true potential of the blades lay in being able to direct the chains and swords in different directions, ensuring that the swords, which deal the most damage, strike the enemies with the highest defense, while the chains corner swift and agile enemies. These chains are also ideal for eliminating hordes of weak enemies.
Of course, I only realized how to use the swords perfectly. Even with my enhanced senses and intelligence, I could only use the swords in a basic way, occasionally making the blade change direction while the chain was extended.
Naturally, this battlefield wasn't all easy, especially since I encountered a rolling lorg. This one charged at me—or rather, rolled towards me. As soon as it appeared, I tried to attack it with the swords, but since they didn't have much momentum, they only caused superficial damage.
Knowing that it could roll over me and that I was surrounded by lorgs hindering my mobility, I decided to do something risky. I gathered momentum and jumped over the lorg. Although it was quite tall, even when rolled up, measuring 3 meters, my strength and agility were enough to leap over it.
After the rolling lorg passed beneath me, I started spinning one of my swords above my head. As it spun faster, I lengthened the chain. With the other sword, I continued to take down any lorgs that approached me.
It only took a few seconds for the rolling lorg to come towards my position again, but this time I had a well-formulated plan to not only defeat it but also many more lorgs.
When it was close, I jumped. I knew I had jumped prematurely, but this was part of my plan. Due to the momentum and height of the jump, I landed on the lorg, and using this advantage, I jumped again with all my strength. The extra 3 meters of the lorg’s height helped me reach an impressive 7 meters.
This gave me an advantage, as I continued to spin the sword at high speed above my head. I grabbed the chain of that sword with both hands to make it spin even faster as I descended. When my feet were 2 meters from the ground, the chain was already 50 meters long and spinning at an incredibly high speed. At that moment, I gathered a large amount of sacred energy in the swords to unleash another devastating Wave of Light.
The spinning speed of the sword combined with the falling speed and the Wave of Light, so that when I launched my attack towards the rolling lorg, the sword moved like a whip, creating an explosion that expanded sideways each time a chain link touched the ground. The explosion was stronger the closer it was to the blade.
This created a devastating attack that even I didn't know I could do. But after thinking about it, it made sense. The force and speed of the chain combined with the Wave of Light. Part of the explosion was likely due to the chain hitting the ground, and the other part due to the Wave of Light. Due to the momentum, the farther the chain link was from me, the more force it had, and therefore, it created a bigger explosion.
Although calling it an explosion due to the chain hitting the ground wouldn't be accurate, as it was merely displacing stone, dirt, and broken asphalt to the sides, the effect was the same as an explosion, especially when combined with the Wave of Light.
In any case, this caused all the lorgs within a great distance to die, and there were no traces left of the rolling lorg. This might be a tactic I decide to use more in the future.
Thus, I continued my fight. Of course, I encountered one problem or another, but nothing too serious. Occasionally, I climbed buildings or houses when my Qi was replenished, shooting a large number of explosive arrows. After all, these are the best attack I have using Qi, especially because I can use fire Qi, which causes real explosions by causing thermal expansion of the air.
Everything was going relatively well, except for three things: the number of lorgs didn't seem to decrease. No matter how many lorgs I killed, they kept coming.
The second issue was that I started encountering lorgs with slightly stronger energy. Having already encountered this situation, I knew these were stage one, middle lorgs. The good part was that they were only about 10-20% better than stage one, low lorgs and appeared occasionally, rarely being a different type of lorg.
The last issue was that the five hours of the enhancement effect Emily gave me were about to end. Although I was only about 200 meters from the base, I could tell that if I left my position, the front line of defense would likely suffer significantly, which I would prefer to avoid. After all, even if I didn't know them, I didn't want to see people die.
Therefore, even if the enhancement effect wore off, I would probably have to keep fighting unless, by some reason, the wave of lorgs stopped, just like in a fantasy novel.
That didn't happen. Even if the world now seems like a fantasy, not everything is like a story. So I had to fight the lorgs with 20% less statistics.
It was a bit difficult at first. My lowest statistic is 60, so with the enhancement, I could fight with statistics at least 12 points higher.
But even then, I managed to handle it, mainly because my defense and skill to replenish my energy were very good. That's why I could use techniques constantly. Even if they hit me, at worst, they would cause shallow wounds, mere scratches.
Of course, nothing lasts forever, and my superiority on the battlefield was interrupted suddenly.
While fighting against some more lorgs, killing as many as I could and looking to unleash my Wave of Light whenever my swords had some momentum, I felt a distant energy. This was different from anything I had felt before, but having gone through this several times already, I quickly realized it was a new type of lorg.
