ON THE MARX

Entry 46

7 Brahma

You know, I really do feel that I am glad that I am a master tactician.

Because I think one of these assassination attempts would have gotten me by now.

I quickly grabbed a knife from my belt and stabbed the fucker who was utterly shocked that I had managed to wake up before he was able to strike.

“f**k,” I said.

I pulled out the knife and threw it at the next guy who stormed into the room.

The guy went down.

I grabbed the first guy who I had stabbed and held him in front of me as he got shot up by another assassin who appeared in the doorway. I pulled out another knife with my free hand and flung it at the guy who had come in guns a blazing. I pulled on my Juryoku knives that came back at me after they pulled out of the soldiers.

Once I had them in my hands and flung them towards two assassins that came out from the windows. I pulled out the knives quickly again and flung them at two more guys. Before I could pull the knives out again I flung two more Juryoku knives and threw them at another set of soldiers.

Here was the thing about Juryoku knives.

They were made of Chitan, a metal that was highly magnetic, in fact they were super magnets. They worked on a magnetic field that was currently powered around me by my gauntlet that I activated. It created a sort of magnetic forcefield that acted as a shield and at the same time a way to attack.

I had created this thing way back when I was a kid.

I knew this thing well.

I knew how to use this field.

I quickly used the field the grab the knives and also some of the riffles they had.

I looked at one of them.

It was an R3RA a Rapid 3 Repeater Arm, a good automatic plasma riffle. I quickly checked the charge and fired at some more assassins that came running into the room. I shot both of them dead before they could react. I quickly jumped dodging more assassins that came from the windows. I grabbed one of my bookshelves and flung it at them.

The soldiers were distracted and I shot at them.

Dead.

How many was that 10 already? Probably.

But there were more and I knew it.

I flung one of the Juryoko knives at another dude who was in the hallway.

Pulled it out and threw it behind me to pin another on a wall.

I ran down the hallway.

Luckily the girls weren’t here right now or else I would have been kind of distracted by that. Judging by how many guys there were.

18 as I killed four guys who came at me.

They clearly knew I was by myself.

To send these many guys.

They were hoping to overwhelm just me.

This was interesting.

But truth be told was that I was able to handle this.

I shot three more guys.

One coming from my living room.

The other from the kitchen.

The other had jumped down from one of the stairs I had.

I quickly flung Juryoko knives at two more.

Before I pulled them back and threw three knives at three guys behind me.

I pulled them out and fired at five more guys.

Suddenly I had to jump.

Crashing through the door was this…I don’t even know what the f**k to call it.

He was a massive man in this deep crimson red armor. He had to be at least 10 feet tall. He had this weird armor that reminded me of a beetle, complete with strange pincers on the helmet and wings on the back. I looked at the thing for a minute before I had to jump back.

The man slammed the floor in front of us.

“Whoa there, big boy.” I said.

The man charged at me. He was swinging violently with his massive hands. His hands were huge they had to be at least a foot wide, at least, they made my hands that were huge look tiny. I heard whoever was behind the helmet scream as he swung at me.

It was like the old saying the bigger they are the harder they fall.

I was thinking about that.

But this guy had some stamina!

He kept swinging at me with its massive hands.

He kept hitting s**t around us.

Crashing through them like crashing through them as if paper.

“Man, I just fixed that wall!” I said as he crashed through another wall before charging at me again. The massive man shook debris off of himself before charging at me again.

“f**k,” I said as I threw Juryoko Knives at three regular dudes appearing around me.

I then had to quickly jump away from the big guy before I ran down my apartment shooting at other regular assassins. I had no idea what the hell this big guy was, but I could tell he had to been a genetic experiment. He had stamina, and strength like a f*****g horse.

I managed to get to one of my windows and I dove out.

It wasn’t a big drop maybe 10 feet from my window to the ground.

I rolled and turned around.

I saw the big guy dropped down and crashed in front of us.

I saw as suddenly he tapped his weird beetle-like helmet and he pulled it off. Behind the helmet was a grotesque battle-ridden man. He maneuvered his helmet to make a massive hammer.

He gave this bellowing scream.

“I AM HORSE!” the man yelled.

The man, calling himself horse charged at me like he was a f*****g horse, with the guile, strength and horsepower of well a horse. It did not stretch my imagination that he probably had horse-like genetics pumped into him. I managed to dodge him. But just barely. That massive f*****g hammer gave him an uncanny sweep.

“God damned it!” I said I shot at some of the other assassins.

I knew they were distractions for the real threat.

This thing calling itself horse was going mad.

Screaming.

Swinging.

Crashing.

Thrashing.

I steadied myself with the gun and shot at it, though knew it was really meaningless.

It didn’t do anything.

Nothing at all.

“s**t,” I said.

I think that if I didn’t have these other idiots shooting at me I could take down the big guy. That made me realize that this could be my strategy. Take down the small idiots, and then fight the big guy.

How many guys did they send after me though?

The regular idiots sent 250.

If these guys were smart it had to be at least that many.

If they were that smart.

They probably weren’t as they were dumb enough to attack me at all.

So, I jumped away from the guy named Horse and stared to look around or the other idiots. We were out in the open now. I saw ES7R, a Every Surface 7 Ranger, a couple of them looked like 4. There were turrets on top of them that if I could get to, I would get on to shoot this i***t, but where would the fun be in that?

Seeing 4 ES7Rs meant that there had to be at least 30 people. They, on average had about 7 passengers easily, that was what the 7 stood for. Then I looked up, usually where there were ES7Rs there were usually Long Range Helipods 339Rs, sure enough I saw a few a couple of dozen feet above or so.

They were these sphere-shaped flying ships that worked with two turbines on the side of the spheres. They were easily maneuverable so they were easy to high jack.

They started to shoot at me.

“f**k,” I said.

I took cover behind one of the ES7Rs and looked up at the Helipads.

They f*****g had L4BRCs, Large 4 Barrel Range Cannons, they were these large repeating laser cannons. The good thing about these things though was that you had crank it to get it charged up.

I heard the gunner nearest me start cranking it.

It was my chance.

I got up and quickly got on the ES7R I was by and jumped towards the Helipod. Using my enhanced muscles, I got from the Sigmosis Plague, I jumped towards the Helipod. I knew it would catch them by surprise, once I was close enough, I flung a Juryoko knife at him. It met the mark through his helmet. I knew there were more people in this thing so I rolled in the Helipod and threw Juryoko knives at two more guys. One being the pilot.

“f**k!” I said.

I ran over and quickly put the Helipod into Auto-pilot.

I ran back to the L4BRC and started cranking it.

“Eat laser!” I said.

I shot at the other Helipods.

The others exploded before mine got shot.

I had the idea of shooting at the Horse i***t.

However, before I got the chance.

One of the helipods hit mine as it went down. I had to jump off before I cam crashing down to the ground. I rolled and heard the explosion behind me. And through the Explosion came crashing Horse again.

“God damn it.” I cursed.
