Jack the ripper

The ice wall was bought down as both of them emerged from behind the iron wall.

The mercenaries in the front line poured on both of them.

Jay :

Minimum casualties. This is getting hard.

Jay couldn't use any weapons such as the spear of the successor or the Chroma weapons.

Meanwhile McElroy was using his water pistol freely. And he was aiming precisely for the legs and not to cut the tea dons in any way.

And for backup McElroy also had the access to Gunther.

At first waves and waves were falling but after fighting continously for the first hour. Jay who couldn't even use mana to get a single edge was stuck with fighting solo.

While McElroy was pushing everybody back by blasting them with waves of water.

At this rate their stamina might run out.

So Jay did what he knew. Surrounded himself with walls. And meditated because what he was about to do required absolute concentration.

Out of thin air soldier of metal started forming. These soldiers started to fight alongside McElroy while Jay was on support duty.

Not much but 36 metal soldiers were summoned which were controlled the same way.

These were just a statue equipped with weapons. Such as hammers. And they were controlled with mana strings.

The mana was condensed in the form of strings and due to its formless nature it flowed freely through the framework of the soldiers and controlled the flawlessly.

36 soldiers and an asura identical to the one Jay fought at the dungeon entrance. Charged through the front lines.

Of these 7 soldiers were protecting Jay Garrick while the others were fighting. Even though Jay was in his bunker full of darkness. There was a small peeking hole about 5 ccm.

This allowed him to focus on the areas he wanted to focus without diverging.

The Asura was causing a lot of damages to the army.

So the stop him Guy Emerson shot his head with an explosive round. And asura head was blown off. But it still kept going. It multiple arms helped it catch many in it's arms and throw then around at others. And the soldiers were protecting the asura from getting surrounded. But due to lack of experience there were times that the soldiers were smacked instead.

Guy Emerson loaded another shot and was waiting for an opportunity. He saw McElroy was fighting. But due to the explosive round he couldn't make a move.

As soon McElroy pushed back others. That's when

Guy shot McElroy with a bullet travellings at around estimated speed of 1000 kmph. And the shot was successful and the round exploded.

The shot downed McElroy but it proved ineffective. McElroy got up from the ground and he tried to determine the location of the shooter.

Guy was surprised that an explosive shot that could atkeadt end an entire squad. Or atkeadt put them in infirmary for 6 months had little no effect on McElroy.

In a blast.

Jay still kept pushing his forces. But he did indeed noticed McElroy was shit

Guy :

And I thought that my job was too easy.

Guy increased the amount of gunpowder in his bullet drastically. And this time he changed his target.

Jay's fortress wasn't that perfect. It was just four walls stuck together. And of course it was bound to have some holes in them.

Guy Emerom had precisely prepared his shot for that. He found one of the holes and caululated his shiot.

He caululated the angle of depression, the speed of wind that will affect the shot. The minimum distance it must travel through. And to round it all off the deviations.

Guy :

Let's see how this one goes.

Guy Emerson held his breath and focused on a tiny hole. Which was about 4cm in diameter.

And he took God's name as he shot a bullet.

There was a moment of silence Guy waiting for results.

The bullet traveled and grazed the side of the walls and exploded.

Brining down Jay's fortress of poorly and cheaply aligned walls. Even some of the debris fell on him.

And this time McElroy observed the explosion which was loud that it could've distracted anyone's attention.

But Jay still continued and this time he had no cover. Just behind a wall. He still kept pushing.

From the shadows. A slithery figure approached moving like a snake behind the wall. A man dressed as a doctor from the dark ages.

A thick black coat, a mask made to look like a bird.

Every part except the lenses were coated in a black paint.

He slipped behind the walls.

With a highly poisonous karambut knife. And a poison with the chemical name.

Nextradone.

An highly reactive chemical which reacts with the hemoglobin located in the red blood cells in the blood.

And just like Carbon Monoxide it irreversible binds to them.

And it spreads through the body rather quickly. Nextradone is a synthetic chemical and does not occur naturally in nature. Not now nor in the future

Due to this oxygen cannot bind to Hemoglobin thus causing oxygen deficiency in the body and due to oxygen deficiency.

There is ultimately death waiting for the one.

So Jack the Ripper snuck on the easiest target he could find. And that was Jay Garrick with his cover fully blown.

Jack without giving Jay anu time to breath aimed the karambit at his throat.

Jay faced Jack the ripper after breaking his connection.

And found a knife touching his throat.

Jay :

Stopwatch.

Time stopped just for a single second. Enough for Jay to snap out and dodge the karambit aimed for him.

Jay scanned his opponent and from the knowledge of history of his world. He found the appearance somewhat familiar.

Jay :

You a doctor.

Jack the ripper just nodded yes.

Jay :

What is a doctor doing on the battlefield.

Jack the ripper extended his pointer finger towards Jay and then slid his finger across his Karambit.

Indicating he wants Jay killed.

A ping from the phone.

Intimidation has been resisted.

You no longer feel fear.

That's right I need to remember that what am I doing this for.

Jay chuckled a bit.

Jay :

I'm actually sorry for making a doctor take up arms.

But you've killed dozens anyway with the way you move your knife.
