Once Rex saw Pain for the first time, while he was still on the roof of the armored truck, his system revealed the stats of this boss enemy to him.
On seeing Pain\'s full stats, Rex finally understood the difference between the current him and a pinnacle Intermediate mystic warrior.
Pain literally dwarfed him on every single stat except the vitality stat and his advantage was entirely because of his Vampire bloodline.
Of all the stats, what bothered him was the health points. After checking Tim\'s and Aragorn\'s, he was positive that both of them had more health points but still, facing so many health points as an enemy felt awful.
"Plan B!"
"Goro, now!"
Having planned for the scenario of Pain suddenly showing up, Tim reacted before his enemy could employ more sophisticated means to stop them.
Before the criminals could understand what was going on, the ground burst open as dust and sand started flying everywhere. Amid the billowing dust and sound did a mighty Sand Worm emerge.
Howl!!!
This mighty yellow Sand Beast was like a worm, just much more exaggeratedly gigantic. It had a mouth that looked like a black hole with rows of jaws that seemed capable of snapping the world in half as it howled loudly.
The Sand Worm was Goro\'s strongest transformation form.
Instantly after the Sand Worm appeared, it opened its fearsome jaws and sucked at the surrounding. The criminals stood no chance as they lost their footing before being sucked into the terrible jaws of this beast.
Grinding and crushing sounds followed the next moment as they were crushed into meat paste. This short intrusion succeeded in destabilizing the criminals, and this was all that Tim and his warriors needed.
Sophia exploded with speed amid the billowing sand and dust as she grabbed 2 of the hackers before sprinting towards the location of the Sand Worm.
On getting close, she jumped high and landed on top of the massive beast, at the part of the massive Worm where a massive saddle sat.
Once Sophia moved, Cain fought against his instincts to exact his revenge on his brother as he grabbed the last hacker before sprinting away.
Rex did not hesitate as he followed before jumping into the saddle on the massive Sand Worm\'s back. Once all 3 of them were in, the Sand Worm turned and started bulldozing its way out of the main base of the criminals.
Behind the Sand Worm, an earth calamity seemed to have been induced as Tim performed his specialty as the Lord of earthquakes.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Massive boulders were uplifted and thrown as they slammed everywhere, bringing an end to the lives of dozens of criminals in the process as Tim worked hard to protect the retreat of his teammates.
The Sand Worm barely escaped a few meters when its own shadow squirmed before rising and swallowing it whole.
"Ugh!"
Goro groaned in pain the next moment as he reappeared in his human form. Sophia, Cain, and Rex were sent flying like kites that had their strings cut.
Before they could recover, the massive shadow appeared again, this time in the form of a giant Cain as it motioned to grab and squeeze them all.
This was when fire came roaring like flames spreading through leaves in harmattan. Tim flew through the skies with fire spouting out of his legs as he controlled a massive fire convergence to illuminate and extinguish the shadow.
Once the shadow was extinguished, Pain appeared again from the dust but he was not injured as a green entity materialized from his back.
Pain\'s parasite formed a massive green shield around him that protected him from the fire. And once the fire died down, the parasite broke the shield into fragments before sending the fragments away like bullets from a machine gun.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Tim controlled earth to block as a fierce battle restarted.
Rex and the others tried to escape with Maxime but reinforcements of the criminals finally came. Pain was not the only Intermediate mystic warrior of the Desert Cowboy Gang, they had more than a dozen.
In the main base alone, they had 6 and now the remaining 5 showed up.
Rex and the others went on the defensive as, alongside the hundreds of basic mystic warriors, these guys boxed them in with the intent to kill them.
Because they were also protecting Maxime, they could not fight at their full strength as they gave their all to protect the boy.
If this trend continued, more and more criminals would show up and, in the end, their mystic energy would be exhausted. At that point, they would be left defenseless for the criminals to ravage apart and devour.
Rex, Tim, and the others already arrived at this conclusion but there was nothing that they could do as all their options were cut off completely.
As they started thinking of drastic means to escape, even extreme means like abandoning Maxime, intervention finally came after taking their time.
Boom!
A high-caliber bullet followed by a pure white mystic energy manifestation and one of the criminal Intermediate mystic warriors suffered a grievous injury.
Once Pain showed up, they already sent out distress signals since. The only reason why Gilbert and Aragorn could not help yet was due to the great distance separating them, both had to get closer before they could help.
Once Gilbert got close enough, he did not hesitate as he aimed before unleashing one of his most lethal shots.
After amplifying the shot damage to a ridiculous degree, he released it and its effects were evident as the injured warrior\'s right hand was crippled.
He was lucky as his heart was the original target of the shot. Gilbert had unerring accuracy but this was also an Intermediate mystic warrior, this warrior\'s intuition saved him as he was able to react on time and dodge.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After the first shot, the 2nd and 3rd followed as from a distance, Gilbert instantly started imposing himself in this battle of experts.
Every shot of his took a lot of mystic energy from him but it was extremely lethal as the Intermediate mystic criminals became wary and started hiding.
This opened windows of opportunities for Rex and the others as they instantly started running outside the base again, but escape was never so straightforward.
Tututututu!
After taking their time to reboot, the machinery turrets and defense systems of the main base that were previously scrambled by the 3 hackers of Tim\'s elite rescue team finally came to life as they unleashed destruction.
Rex and the others immediately ran to safety as Goro transformed into a massive Turtle as he shielded them with his tough shell.
They were not the only ones that were targeted, Tim could not dodge on time as he was injured by the shots. Gilbert who was far away was also targeted as he also had to escape to safety to avoid being injured or worse shot to death.
The sounds of roaring machines and flying bullets filled the air as the criminals firmly regained the initiative, they completely suppressed the intruders.
Rex could only hear the sounds of flying bullets as he holed up behind Goro\'s shell. He was pretty sure that even with his frightening vitality, he would not last up to a minute if he faced concentrated fire from these turrets.
"Damn, are we going to die here?"
Once Rex asked this question, he got his response from range.
After not pulling his weight for the majority of the time since this mission began, Aragorn finally felt compelled to really show his true capabilities.
Amid the rapid sound of gunfire, 2 louder gunshots reverberated.
BOOM! BOOM!
The Blood Gunner finally made his debut!
