[Twenty-four High-Tier-3 Chimeras means twelve each. Frontal Rush, break the pack, and lead them in opposite directions. We already have a substantial lead regarding time; all we need to do is reach Wave 19 before the clock strikes two hours, and we are good to go. I don't see anyone, even other Legacy Charges getting close to that time since there are two of us and likely only one of them.] Cynrik quickly stated while feeling the suppression slowing his body down rapidly receding.

[Roger, rush in, separate the pack, rush out.] Repeating the order, Brance leaned forward and channeled a mixture of Wind and Terra Mana into his legs for reinforcement and a burst of speed. As the vanguard, it was his job to act like a bowling ball to break up the group.

"Now!" Cynrik roared aloud, opting to go with his voice instead of the mind link since he was fully aware that the eyes of the Nation were no doubt on them now that they had made it clear they were going for a Record-Breaking run.

At Cynrik's command, Brance kicked the ground with all his might and shot off like a shell from a cannon, shattering the ground underfoot and making a b-line for the cluster of creatures fully exposed from the Gate.

'Tobs, background music, and make it something new and epic.' Cynrik stated as he activated his stealth skill and took off running to the right, setting himself up for an ambush.

-Now playing "Dawn of Heroes," By Brian Delgado.-

While Cynrik moved into position, arriving ahead of his brother, Brance activated the separation mechanism of his weapon and broke it back down into shield form. Next, he swung the two shields out to his sides with outstretched arms and slammed them back together, shooting sparks all over the place and causing a loud metal BANG sound.

This sound not only caused every Chimera to flinch due to its gratingly high decibel but also drew their aggro. In an instant, the massive 100-kilometer field was filled with the aggressive howls, screeches, and roars of twenty-four giant 18-meter-tall creatures, as they burst into motion, some flying, some running to meet the source of the sound head-on.

Racing to meet them, Brance hopped up on his right foot, skipping over 15 meters, landed, bounced again, this time on his left, and finally, on the third jump, launched himself into the sky.

Shooting forward like a missile, he then brought up his shields, tucked his body and legs behind them, and turned himself into a cannonball before crashing into five creatures in mid-air.

But he wasn't finished there; the impact catapulted the Airborn Chimeras back to the ground in separate directions, leaving Brance free to hit the ground. Landing in a roll,  he quickly got back to his feet and crashed into the remaining group, flinging them to the left and right like massive meaty bowling pins.

With the group perfectly separated into two now injured groups, Brance dug his feet into the ground and started moving through the grassy dirt with the aid of his Terra Affinity, going from running to gliding on the terrain like an ice skater.

Looking over his shoulder as he broke away and to the left, Brance reactivated [Mana Sight] and noticed Cynrik peppering his batch of Chimera with condensed orbs of murky blackish-blue balls of fire.

Then, wearing a smirk, Brance held up his right hand, gripped at the air to manifest a massive Terra Spike, and punched out while drifting around the Egress Gate. With a loud popping sound, the Spike launched through the air, targeting one of Cynrik's creatures, and penetrated its skull from behind, killing it instantly because its attention had shifted to Cynrik and was oblivious to an attack from behind.

[WHAT THE FUCK BRANCE? THAT WAS MINE!] Cynrik cried as he watched one of his Chimera shatter into particles.

[There, the score is even now, HAHA!] Brance shouted into the mind link as he fired off thirty-six [Terra Bullets] to lock in the aggro of his twelve creatures.

[If that's not the pettiest shit I've ever seen in my life, I don't know what is, THE BOSS WAS A JOINT EFFORT!] Jumping up and hacking the wings off a Chimera, then using it as a springboard to flip away to safety, Cynrik complained.

[You got the final hit; that puts you one ahead of me, and there is no way I will allow that; now focus on your kills. If I finish first, then well, I'll come after yours.]

[Like hell you will, GAME ON LITTLE BROTHER!] A strange glint flashed through Cynrik's eyes as he whipped his kodachis around his body and unleashed an aggressive assault on his creatures.

Meanwhile, with the aggro of his twelve creatures locked on himself, Brance kited them away from Cynrik's battlefield. Moving half a kilometer away, Brance began stealthily crafting clusters of small white marbles and planting them in the path of destruction he was creating by skating through the terrain.

[Cyn, don't look over here and put your back to me; I am firing off [White Dwarfs] in three minutes. I don't want any complaints about going blind or getting affected by the aftermath.]

[Yeah, yeah, I got it; I already saw you dropping them, don't act like I'm not monitoring the entire battlefield. Just do your thing; I will stay out of the way. Just be sure you make some type of gesture disguising what you are doing. The less information our enemies have about our skills, the better.] Cynrik countered with a snort as he lopped off the head of a Chimera, bringing his batch down to nine remaining creatures.

[Copy that.] With the confirmation from his brother, Brance no longer held back and positioned himself so that the Chimeras were forced to cross over the minefield, unaware of the dangerous yet small objects under their feet.

Brance already felt Cynrik would say something about hiding his skill from the world, so he kept his hands down, using the rocks rising as he moved as cover to covertly plant the WDs in the soil as he passed by.

[Detonation in 10 seconds,] picking up speed and digging himself deeper into the ground as he moved, Brance kept glancing over his shoulder every few seconds to double-check the creatures were following his route correctly. Once they were in position, he sunk into the ground, causing the enemies to lose sight of him and slow to a halt.

The twelve Chimera's big dumb bird heads whipped left and right, and they continuously chirped and growled at each other as they tried to locate Brance. Unfortunately for the stupid creatures, they would never find their prey; it was too late.

Ten seconds after Brance pulled his disappearing act, the ground bubbled up. A massive explosion engulfed all twelve creatures in a bright flash of light, killing and vaporizing them instantly without even leaving particles behind.
