Boom!
Crack!
Drizz!
There was no end to it.
Yelena attacked, burned, and overwhelmed her opponent with sheer power, but there was no end to it. The awful taste of ash ran through her mouth and she could feel her body getting heavy.
At some point, the clones of Lupic were not completely humans anymore. Different variants appeared, and they were not as easy to deal with as the others.
Moreover, there was no effective way to find the original. But fortunately, only the original could use the time skip power.
"This is bad! Yelena, I will hold this guy here, you guys need to run!" Timothy shouted.
Normally, these words were not something that Timothy would say under normal circumstances, but the situation took a more horrifying turn.
It was as if they were fighting a horde of endless zombies that didn't fear pain and advanced to their death. Furthermore, these clones were intelligent and could dodge attacks launched at them.
It was only thanks to Yelena's power, which melted the clones that approached her, that they could hold their ground against Lupic and his clones.
"What are you saying? This is not the time for such stupidity. We are going to get through this together." Yelena answered Timothy.
Unfortunately, such a thought seemed to be more and more unrealistic when they looked at the three variants in front of them.
The first one was a three meters tall human with skin made of Stellarium. The second one looked like a werewolf and had extreme agility and the third one was an old man wearing a black coat and controlled darkness.
These three variants were completely different from the other clones and were as strong as Yelena and Timothy, and soon as they appeared, the tide of battle changed and they were now backed into a corner.
Lupic was not a complete fool and he only brought other versions of him that he could manage. However, he was still playing a very dangerous game by messing with the mirror dimension, but he had long forgotten about what the emotion called fear means.
At first sight, it appeared like Louis was the most dangerous of the two, but it was the opposite. If Lupic continued to mess with the mirror dimension, then he could destroy the world.
But as long as he could help his Lord achieve his goal, he didn't care about such a thing.
He had already cried all of his tears, and from the dead, he was brought back. There was no salvation for him even in death, so as long as he could take back everything he lost, he wouldn't hesitate, and his determination showed in his action.
Even Yelena and Timothy felt Lupic's madness and were beginning to feel overwhelmed.
"Aaaaa!"
The three meters metal clone rushed forward while taking all of Yelena and Timothy's attack.

His body was very tough and even Yelena's power, which reached almost 2000 degrees Celsius when used at full power, couldn't melt his skin and he just turned into a walking volcano. The heat slowed him down, but he was not dead.
And while Yelena was focused on the metallic clone, the werewolf clone jumped around in the trees while avoiding Timothy's attack. This clone had the superhuman strength of a level 8 gift holder and had a dynamic and nocturnal vision.
And that was not all, the old man began to absorb the elemental particles in the surroundings and so the area where Yelena and Timothy could exert their power was reduced.
"Yelena! Just go! I can hold them for a few minutes if I use all of my trump cards." Timothy said to Yelena, seeing that things weren't about to get better.
Timothy was not a coward, and that was one of his redeeming qualities. He had already left Liu's fate to another person, so he couldn't let his companion die under his watch.
He wouldn't bear to see the only people that he considered as his family die.
At least, his life would be meaningful if they survived due to his sacrifice. He always tried to become a better person, but never managed to change completely.
He was aware more than anyone else that he was a pain for those who were around him, but these people accepted him for who he was, and Timothy would never want to let them down.
"Tch! Don't make me repeat myself, I will never allow such a stupid self-sacrifice!" Yelena was frustrated, she felt powerless.
Yelena was with Liu since she was a child, so she knew that Liu would never sacrifice her companion for her own sake, no matter how much pain she had to endure as a consequence.
But Yelena failed to protect Liu, and even the fact that Liu became stronger than her in terms of strength made her feel a little bit powerless because she was the one who should protect Liu and not the other way around.
Now, Liu was kidnapped and she couldn't do anything about it. Then, would she also sacrifice Timothy to survive? She wouldn't do that.
The metallic clone approached and the other clones were not affected by the heat anymore. Yelena was losing more and more strength, and it was apparent.
The scenery had already changed into a hellish one since Yelena's first attack. There were leftover carbonized bodies everywhere, and the sight and the smell were intoxicating.
If it wasn't for Brodon who was still in a critical condition, they would have the time to run while fighting. And in the first place, if it wasn't for that container, they would be not in this situation.
"Aaaaa!"
The metallic clone finally managed to reach Yelena and charged at her.
"Yelena!" Timothy shouted.
Yelena blocked the metallic clone in her arms but it was more powerful than she expected.
Thud!
Timothy wanted to do something, but he couldn't leave Feldenis and the others without protection, even for a second. The werewolf clone would tear them apart.
Yelena was propelled backward but she managed to stand back. However, during this little time gap, the clones already managed to charge at Timothy's barrier.
"Kuh!" Timothy felt the pressure as he directed all of his remaining strength toward the barrier. "Aaaaaaa! F*ck you all!" He roared and an outburst of energy sent the clones that were close to the barrier flying.
'Visit (No ve (l)B i n) to read, pls!',
Yelena immediately tried to launch other attacks on the clones, but the metallic clone leaped in the air and tried to crush her under his feet.
Crash!
Yelena managed to avoid the attack but she realized that she couldn't properly control her power.
And when she turned around, she saw the old man surrounded by a dark miasma standing behind her.
"Shit!" Yelena spat out because a fist was heading toward her and she couldn't avoid it completely.
Crack!
Yelena blocked the metallic clone's blow with her arm but she could hear her bones shattering, and the impact made it to her head.
"Guah!" Yelena coughed a mouthful of blood. She slammed to the ground and rolled back a few times before crashing on a tree root.
"Yelena!!!"
This was the worst outcome, and if there everyone would certainly die if something wasn't done.
But what? Timothy couldn't think about anything that could help them face the current situation.
Drizzzz!
The werewolf clone tried to pass through Timothy's barrier forcefully and he was halfway through.
"Tch, why am I so powerless, if only I was strong enough to create my domain." Timothy cursed his powerlessness, but it was too late for regrets.
He looked at Feldenis and the others and he saw that Feldenis was focusing all of his attention on saving Brondon's life. He didn't let himself be disturbed by everything around him and solely focused on what he was doing. It was a very professional attitude, and Ma?ra was helping him.
However, anxiousness could be seen on Ma?ra's face, unlike Feldenis. It was because she was giftless and didn't completely trust Yelena and Timothy. The thought of running away to save her own life appeared inside of her mind, but seeing Feldenis, she couldn't bring herself to decide.
"Tch!" Timothy couldn't let Feldenis and Brondon down, but he was not powerful enough.
Even Yelena who was stronger than him was now struggling. She couldn't avoid the punch of the metallic clone and she didn't have enough energy to create another fire armor.
The punches hit her directly and she could hear bones breaking apart.
It was a brutal scene to witness.
Timothy's anger reached its peak, but he couldn't move carelessly as the werewolf clone was already halfway inside of his barrier.
He could take on the werewolf clone, but he couldn't protect Feldenis and the others at the same time if he put down the barrier. Feldenis was just a level 4 gift holder, and he was not a seasoned fighter, unlike Yelena and Timothy.
"What the hell am I supposed to do?!!"
