All Hell Break Loose (9)

Breira could not even react the moment Mo's fist rammed down toward him. Fortunately, the automaton beside him was more attentive, and its awareness and processing speed were faster, thus moving even before Mo raised its fist, blocking his punch with the shield on his hand before it landed on Breira's head.

CLANG!

Mo's fist slammed into the automaton's shield, resulting in a metal-hitting-metal sound that rang in the air.

"Please be careful. We cannot have you losing your head just yet," the automaton told Breira while pushing his shield upward and forcing Mo's fist away.

Mo was momentarily stunned at the black armored soldier's very timely interference. But he recovered just as fast and followed the trajectory of the latter's push to avoid getting himself pushed out of balance. After which, he used the initial course of the trajectory to execute a complete turn before raising his leg to perform a hook kick, aiming at Breira's temple.
