The Electro Man glanced indifferently at the energy beam and slowly raised his palm, effortlessly blocking it. The beam burst into a dazzling light in his hand but failed to harm him in the slightest.
The Electrician calmly deflected the attack.
His eyes flashed, and he swiftly moved aside to evade Lilith's flying energy blade. Then, his figure floated across the battlefield, darting back and forth like lightning.
Jack's Thunder Blaster once again unleashed a powerful arc-shaped strike, but the Lightning Man dodged every attack with ease, as if predicting all his moves.
Alice's Phantom Step allowed her to teleport across the battlefield, but the Electro Man's sharp gaze always tracked her true position, rendering her ability useless.
Max and Adam formed a close-combat duo, but even together they couldn't get near him — the Lightning Man's body flickered past them in an instant, leaving their attacks to hit nothing but empty air.
His movements were as fast as lightning, impossible to follow with the naked eye. He dodged the enemy team's attacks effortlessly, as if he were playing a game with a group of amateurs.
"This guy's too fast!" Alice shouted in shock.
Catherine frowned. She knew they had to find the Electro Man's weakness. His speed made him nearly impossible to defeat.
"We have to work together! Limit his movement!" Catherine ordered.
The team nodded. They realized that only by uniting could they stand a chance.
Jack fired another lightning strike — a blinding arc tore through the air. The attack was like a thunderstorm unleashed, but again, the Lightning Man easily evaded it.
"Heh." Jack smirked. The place where the enemy dodged was exactly where they'd set the trap.
Alice used her Phantom Step again, her form flickering unpredictably to confuse the Electro Man's perception, ready to strike with her shadow dagger.
Max and Adam coordinated their movements perfectly from opposite sides, combining their attacks to pressure the Lightning Man.
Lilith changed her attack patterns constantly, flying swiftly around while launching energy blades from every direction.
Yet the Electro Man dodged them all with ease. His cold, expressionless eyes suggested that this battle was nothing more than a game to him.
"Captain! Over here! Aim that way!" Emily pointed to an empty patch of ground.
"Got it!" Catherine roared, activating War Wolf.
BOOM! The ground exploded. Catherine turned toward the spot Emily had indicated — the Electro Man was there. Her right arm bulged with power, her fist radiating searing energy.
Boom!
Her punch landed squarely, but the Electro Man's body was like steel — completely unharmed. His cold eyes glinted as he began to gather electricity within himself, his power rapidly intensifying.
"Spirit of Thunder," he murmured coldly, as a terrifying current surged through his body.
The entire battlefield became engulfed in electricity. Arcs of lightning danced violently around him, painting a scene of pure destruction.
"Careful! He's charging up!" Emily warned. She could feel his power growing stronger by the second. Fear spread through her voice. "No… no, this can't be happening…"
Catherine's heart pounded as she stared at him, her nerves tense. His aura was suffocating.
"We have to find his weakness — fast!" she said, trying to stay composed.
The team regrouped, trying to corner him and restrict his movements. But his speed had become uncontrollable — they couldn't trap him.
He moved like lightning, each strike hitting with deadly precision. His power surged higher with every passing moment, leaving the team unable to fight back.
Jack retreated, trying to fight from a distance, but the Electro Man was faster than he anticipated — his attacks missed easily.
Then, with a flash — BAM! — the Electro Man appeared before Jack.
Jack's armor shattered as he was sent flying.
Max and Adam charged from both sides in a desperate flanking maneuver, but the Electro Man vanished before they could land a hit.
BAM! BAM!
A moment later, both felt searing pain in their stomachs and fell to the ground.
Lilith's flying blades sliced through the air, but his speed made her unable to even graze him. Every attack was countered or avoided.
"This guy's untouchable!" Lilith groaned in frustration — then her eyes widened as a fist struck her chest.
BOOM! She crashed hard into the ground.
Alice tried to teleport closer using Phantom Step, but the Electro Man's gaze tracked her precisely. Every strike she made missed.
He countered with a brutal backhand, sending her slamming into the wall.
The Electro Man's eyes were cold, emotionless. He wasn't fighting — he was toying with them.
"Everyone!" Catherine shouted, gritting her teeth.
She knew if they couldn't find a way to counter him, they were finished.
"We can't just sit here and die!" she yelled, her determination burning.
She gathered all her energy. Her body erupted with power — War Wolf entered a new level.
Lightning flashed in her eyes as she charged at the Electro Man, her speed blinding.
He sensed her strength but didn't flinch — instead, a mocking smile formed on his lips.
"Now it's getting interesting."
The Electro Man's body sparked as he condensed his energy to the extreme. His speed, strength, and reflexes skyrocketed beyond Catherine's expectations.
Two streaks of lightning clashed — Catherine and the Electro Man collided in a storm of power.
Their fists met, detonating bursts of thunder. Catherine's energy raged wildly inside her, making her stronger by the second.
But the Electro Man remained unshaken — his power was just as terrifying, his expression blank and merciless.
Their duel grew fiercer. Electricity surrounded them both, illuminating the entire battlefield.
The rest of the team fought on, trying to create openings for Catherine, but his speed was overwhelming — they couldn't land a single solid hit.
"We have to split him up!" Jack shouted, and the others quickly dispersed.
"Warm-up's over," the Electro Man muttered. His aura flared — thunder roared around him as he reached his peak. His icy gaze locked on Catherine, filled with confidence.
He moved — a streak of lightning — and appeared right before her. His punch came like a thunderclap.
BOOM!
Catherine didn't have time to react. The blow sent her flying like a cannonball, smashing through several buildings and leaving a long scar across the ground before finally stopping.
The others watched in horror — powerless and enraged. His strength was beyond comprehension.
"Catherine!" Jack shouted. Their captain was down.
But the Electro Man didn't stop. He appeared in front of Jack instantly and punched him square in the chest.
Jack felt like he'd been hit by a train — his armor shattered as he was thrown through a building.
BOOM!
Jack lay motionless.
"This… this can't be happening…" Alice whispered in terror, eyes wide with disbelief.
Max and Adam were next — both struck down in brutal succession.
Lilith hesitated, fear taking hold as she watched her teammates fall one by one.
The Electro Man's eyes glowed brighter. He attacked again, every hit carrying devastating power.
The team couldn't fight back — they were helpless before him.
He darted across the battlefield like a phantom, striking and vanishing before they could react.
"We have to… hold on…" Emily struggled to her feet, using her telepathy to send warnings to the others.
Suddenly, he appeared right in front of her.
CRASH!
Emily fell hard to the ground.
Now, only Catherine remained — bloodied, trembling, and alone. Her eyes were full of tears, guilt, and rage.
"I'm sorry… I'm so sorry…" she whispered. She blamed herself for everything — for her fallen comrades, her failed leadership.
She knew they'd sacrificed their lives to protect her and each other. Now, all she could do was honor their will — and destroy the Electro Man.
Catherine took a deep breath, slowly closing her eyes. Memories of her teammates — their courage, their laughter, their battles — flooded her mind.
