Warp Space was dealing with the bird's attacks, but Kyle could tell that she was really low on Energy.
Swamp Dragon was firing one arrow after the other, but the bird was simply too fast.
If both of them had full Energy, they would probably be able to take the bird down, but they were in survival mode.
Kyle remembered that Swamp Dragon had said that he excelled in long fights, which made a lot of sense, considering the state the mole had been in.
It seemed like he poisoned an enemy slowly, which had advantages and disadvantages.
For example, if he fought an enemy Transcendent with a lot of burst damage, Swamp Dragon might die before his attacks showed any significant effect.
However, his particular way of attacking allowed him to circumvent the powerful defenses of beasts.
Kyle wouldn't have been able to get through the mole's defenses this easily if it hadn't been so weakened. After all, the mole was harder than the bird.
BANG!
Kyle exploded forward, his speed immediately reaching its max.
As he ran forward, he used a burst of Meteor Energy to extend his steps, increasing his maximum speed even further.
For the first time after becoming a Transcendent, Kyle's maximum speed had increased.
The two of them noticed that Kyle had returned.
"Can you kill it?" Warp Space asked via voice transmission.
Despite everything, Kyle still couldn't use voice transmissions from such a distance, which was why he just nodded.
"You get one chance. One opportunity."
Kyle did his best not to say a certain phrase and just nodded again.
The bird also noticed that Kyle had returned, and it grew more careful.
As long as it fought from range, it would be able to overwhelm its opponents eventually.
It would not allow the one with the hammer to reach it.
Despite Kyle's increased maximum speed, his speed still couldn't be compared to the bird's speed.
If it wanted to retreat, it could do just that.
"Come here!" Swamp Dragon shouted.
Kyle changed his trajectory and veered to Swamp Dragon.
The next moment, a lot of green Energy gathered around Swamp Dragon.
The green Energy immediately flooded towards Kyle, and his instincts warned him of danger.
They told him that he really shouldn't allow that Energy to encompass him.
'I refuse to believe that he wants to kill me at this moment. That would be the dumbest move in history,' Kyle thought.
Resisting his instincts, Kyle allowed the green Energy to surround him. His instincts told him that he was surrounded by a deadly attack.
If the Energy turned hostile, he might die.
Luckily, Swamp Dragon was not an idiot.
An instant later, all the green Energy gathered on Kyle's hammer, creating a green aura around its pick.
"I'm out," Swamp Dragon said as he stepped behind Warp Space.
Warp Space narrowed her eyes as Kyle shot past them.
The bird launched several more feathers, which directly flew towards Swamp Dragon and Warp Space.
"Resist!" Warp Space transmitted.
BOOOOM!
The feathers landed around them and exploded.
Swamp Dragon and Warp Space received severe burns, and some of their body parts were blasted off.
In the middle of all the explosions, Warp Space pointed her staff towards the space between Kyle and the bird.
"Go!" she transmitted.
At that moment, Kyle's eyes widened.
He was moving so fast!
The world around him distorted.
The trees seemed to become shorter, and they seemingly pointed towards them.
'She's warping space!' Kyle realized as he saw himself approaching the bird at incredible speeds.
The space between Kyle and the bird had shortened significantly!
Taking one step was like taking five steps!
Kyle's eyes widened as he fully focused on the bird.
His hammer and his body grew bigger as he shoved almost all of his Energy into his attack.
A red streak of Meteor Energy was left behind.
The bird was panicked by the sudden change and gathered all the Fire Energy in its feathers.
BOOOM!
A humongous storm of burning feathers flew at Kyle, who kept growing.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The feathers punched through Kyle's growing body, leaving burned holes behind.
Burned muscle and organs joined the red streak.
Kyle's instincts wanted him to lose consciousness to focus on recovery, but he forcefully pushed through.
His muscles bulged as his body reached a size of almost five kilometers.
Finally, he was just as big as the bird.
Kyle's body shook with intense power as his muscles tore under the stress.
The bird watched in fear, trying to scamper away.
"DIE!"
Kyle swung.
A streak of red, blue, and green.
The hammer's pick hit the back of the bird.
The penetrative cold of the Yin-Fire froze the bird's muscles and blood.
CRACK!
The hammer's pick rammed through the frozen muscles.
BANG!
The second attack of the Yin-Metal triggered.
CRACK!
The bird's back broke, and the hammer continued. The humongous hammer pushed the bird towards the ground.
BOOOOOM!
The ground exploded as Kyle's hammer buried the bird violently in the ground, several parts of its body exploding.
Kyle's eyes narrowed as he realized something.
The bird had been injured significantly, but he hadn't hit any of its truly vital parts.
He had missed the Beast Core.
But then, he noticed that the bird's Energy turned chaotic.
On top of its red Energy was now a stream of green Energy.
Swamp Dragon's Energy.
Kyle quickly pulled his hammer out and retreated.
BOOOOOOM!
The next moment, the area around the bird exploded with searing flames.
Naturally, it wasn't helpless, and if Kyle had remained, this explosion would have killed him.
That was when the bird took to the sky again, but it had difficulties moving its body.
The disadvantage of only using one's body to move was that injury to muscles and bones made it harder to move.
Meanwhile, Kyle could essentially move at the maximum speed his Law of Meteor gave him, even if he was only a torso and head.
Kyle noticed that the bird had become much slower, and he immediately chased after it again.
It looked back and shot several of its feathers, but that attack was chaotic and lethargic.
It was not hard for Kyle to evade the slow and scattered feathers.
At that moment, green and white pus streamed out of the huge hole in the bird's back.
Its flesh was not regrowing!
All the Biological Energy rushing to its back was fighting against the green Energy.
Kyle quickly reached the bird again and struck its head with the flat side of his hammer.
The body spun in the air before hitting the ground.
The bird was completely disoriented by the green Energy and the strike to its head.
Its entire world was warping and distorting.
Kyle lifted his hammer again.
The bird wasn't moving.
It was a free shot.
His body bulged once again, and he struck down.
CRACK!
The pick of the hammer broke through the bird's skull and burrowed into its brain.
The bird's body(farted) spasmed.
The pus streamed out of the wound with greater fervor.
Within just a second, it completely covered the bird's body, and Kyle could see the bird's body dissolving.
The fight was won.
