Chapter 276 B1, Harbinger Of The Everclock

[Extra Projectile 2]

[Lightning Strike 3]

[Speed Increase 1]

? Since I was about to face a boss, the lightning wouldn't help me. The boss will likely be alone, and speed won't help me.

After selecting the first option, I fired two bursts of three purple bolts that were roughly the size of a wrist. Even though it wasn't going to get any better, I was still concerned about the next room.

It was customary for bosses to have special abilities and be much more powerful than regular enemies. I had no idea what I was going to face when I entered the room, as with every room I entered for the first time.

Taking a deep breath, I jogged forward; I had finally gotten past the speed walk!

When I crossed the portal, what I found on the other side was nothing like what I had seen before. The monster was a massive slime with strange blocks appearing and disappearing.

'',

The colors flickered like a glitching program, so I couldn't choose a single color to describe it.

I didn't have much more time to think as a halo of glitching blocks flew out from the monster, but I could dodge it easily. Then more started to puff out, keeping me out of range to even hit.

While part of me wanted to rush in, something told me not to get hit by those blocks. Unlike the rest of the monsters, this one wasn't the same, and I didn't want to test it to see what would happen if it hit me.

Eventually, they stopped after ten bursts, and I rushed in. Most bosses had a break between their attacks, which I used to my advantage.

In the process of running up, I counted, fired two shots, and then ran back. My decision was the right one, as overdoing it would have been pointless and risky.

When I got out of range of the slime, a rainbow gas puffed out but dispersed almost immediately. The halo of glitching blocks started again, and I began to dodge again.

I had gotten the pattern down, so this should be fine, but I had no way to tell how many hits I had left.

Once the blocks stopped, I rushed in but turned around right away as the slime flattened its body. It flung itself into the air, and I could barely dodge it, but I let off one attack before the blocks started to puff out.

"What the hell is wrong with you!" I yelled, but the slime didn't respond, not like I expected it to.

This was three attacks now, and it was starting to feel a lot worse than what a boss of this level should be. Regardless of how strong it was, I had nowhere to go, but forward from here, so I wasn't going to lose.

I weaved back and forth between the blocks and then dashed in again, firing two shots. All twelve hit, but then the slime started to glitch out even worse, and then it split.

"What the shells? This is madness!" I screamed as I started to dodge glitching blocks coming from both.

I weaved and dodged, just barely able to avoid the torrent of blocks, but then they both stopped, and I ran in and started to unload. I made six attacks in five seconds, and both of them split again, and I screamed in rage as I backpedaled.

"Stupid greasy slimes! You have got to be Kitten me! When I find out who did this, I am going to polar tear them apart!" I screamed as I ran for my life, puns flying out.

One of the slimes died from the lightning that was still bouncing, but the three that were left gave me no rest. I had to run on angles away from the slimes, pushing me too far back to be able to get close in time.

Once they stopped, two of them compressed, and the other puffed up, and I knew what would happen. I stopped, and the moment the other two jumped, I ran out of the range they would help in and then started firing nonstop before they even landed.

Both slimes were killed after landing, and I turned to the last one, but something was happening. It was starting to glitch again, but this time it was pulling into the form of a man.

"A1! This is all your doing?!" I yelled, but my body also changed to my original form.

I felt a chill of excitement run through my body as my power and strength returned to me in full force, dialing me up to ten. I was filled with fire and rage, and now this son of a bitch was going to pay, even if it wasn't really Tyler.

"Your fighting is futile. I will be at every corner to stop you from whatever you try to do, haha!" Tyler's glitching body told me, but I stuck all four arms out to the side, breaking through reality.

"I will hunt you, and you will never rest easy while I draw air. I am B1, Harbinger of the Everclock, and you are my enemy," I screamed and shot forward, pulling out my new Queen blades that glowed with a hexagon pattern covering them in three hands and a new gun in my fourth.

Tyler's glitching form did the same as mine but pulled out two black greatswords.

We clashed, and I attacked with all the fury of a bee that just had its nest kicked. This bastard was constantly hurting people just to get at me, and I wasn't going to stand for it anymore.

I smashed his blades up, breaking his guard, and kicked him back.

[SMBee activated!]

[100x BeeBliss shot Loaded!]

I raised my SMBee and unloaded the entire clip in him while tossing my swords to the side and pulling my rifle out.

[Mega Bee Sting Rifle Activated!]

[4x Hammer Shot loaded!]

My two arms lined up Tyler in my Mega Bee Sting Rifles scope, dropping my SMBee and putting both hands out to the side. Fire started to swirl in one, and Lightning cracked in the other.

I was pissed, and I was going to let him know just how angry I was.
