Alterin Saga: Biohazard
Episode 17: The Battle of the Armor

Bill Clinton

I coated my whole body with calcium. With this armor, I can fight safer. There were about 10 people who surrounded Valiant's Cafe. They brought a tank, LMG (Light Machine Gun) caliber 5.56, and—

"That's it! Be careful with Project 07! Get him alive!" yell at one of them.

"You think you can catch me?" I thrust myself into the tank. Shit, too heavy to turn down. The tank was just a dent on one side.

"Siege him! Don't let him get close!"

Dor's! Dor's! Dor's!

Gunfire surrounded me. I just grinned as the bullet broke and dropped to the ground. Caliber 5.56 alone is not enough to penetrate me.

I quickly jumped up and gripped the neck of one of the attackers. Then foolishly, his friend came forward and fired a streak of shots. I immediately covered my body with my hostage.

"I didn't kill you" I said as I stared at the corpse in the clutches.

Then I threw the body at the killer, and kicked him with all my might. They were thrown 15 meters away and hit a road wall.

8 Persons left. They keep showering me with bullets. I can't stay here long. My armour can only withstand bullets, but not the pressure. My body is getting heavier.

I concentrated on adding calcium to my armour. The more I use, the more it affects my body. My steps weren't that fast, because I moved some of the leg bone calcium in the upper armour.

"Prepare the MGL (Multiple Grenade Launcher)! He's starting to weaken!" yelled someone on the tank.

I turned my head straight away, that person did not carry any weapons. Only wear black robes and metal masks. He should have been an easy victim for me.

Without a second thought, I jumped straight at him and prepared to hit. What happened next was very unexpected.

That person punched me very hard and without hesitation. It was as if this armor was nothing to him. I was thrown 5 meters away and fell to the ground.

"You... Who are you? How could you throw me?" my many.

The man looked at me and said, "Don't be naive, Project 07. Your abilities are not comparable to mine"

He jumped down from the tank and stood 1 meter away from me. This guy is burly, I can see it from the pattern of his robe. Steady as a roaring lion, strong as a fighting rhinoceros.

"Stand up and face me. It's been a long time since I've wanted to test your abilities and fight one-on-one" said this person.

I stood up and looked around. This guy seemed to understand, then he said, "Hold a shot. I will face it myself. Take care of the wounded."

"Okay, commander!"

"Before fighting, may I know your name?" I stared at the mask.

"Name? Well, you can call me Nine," he said.

"We're starting!" Nine went straight ahead and punched me in the stomach. I couldn't escape and was thrown up 10 meters. This guy is so strong.

"Hahaahaha! I finally found a suitable opponent for me!"

I fell down and punched the ground, made a huge crack and made a gust of wind.

Nine did not wait long and prepared to hit me again. But I dodged and punched him in the face. The mask was partially cracked, almost crushed under the pressure of my punch.

Nine staggered and took three steps back. He held his face with one hand.

"It should be this way! Not exciting if it goes fast, is it?" Nine laughed loudly and pulled off his metal mask. Showing the face of a girl of the same age as Miko.

"Well, this is exciting!" I advanced along with Nine. We exchanged blows. Our fists hit each other.

Shit, is he really human? His fists are like diamonds! Very loud and unshakable. Unlike me, my fists vibrate every time they hit his fists.

While I was still shocked by how hard his fist was, Nine hit me on the face very hard. My armour even made a sound. Nine did not stop there. He punched me in a row without pause.

My consciousness is beginning to fade. I can't do anything but move calcium to my face nonstop.

"Why? Is this just your ability?" Nine taunted. Fishing to get me to attack. But free, I don't see a gap in every attack. His fist line was always changing. Up, down, right, left, and more.

Shit, this guy's crazy. He kept hitting me nonstop as if his stamina was limitless. At that moment, I began to give in to a whisper.

Use that thing, Bill!

There's no other way. I pretended to fall and not move. My face hurts so much. I'm sure there's a lot of blue bruises in there.

"Huh? That only? It's so boring," Nine crouched down and pulled my hair up. Facing his face to my face and saying, "It turns out Project 07 isn't as strong as people talk about."

"You.. haven't..."

"What's? What are you talking about, 07?" Nine put her ear to my mouth.

"You've never... My adrenaline is over the limit!" I immediately poked my leg with that thing.

"Damn! You... How could you have it?!" Nine jumped back and looked at me furiously.

Boom!

I can feel it. The Mathanus cells in my body were turbulent and explosive. My body began to heal and grow stronger.

My armour is recovering. Then I looked at Nine's daunted face, "The real game, it's just getting started."
