Adopted Soldier

Chapter 315: 315

The five members of the Shadow Mercenaries started to close in on Rachel . When she saw that there really was no chance of escape, Rachel decided to fight until she could no longer continue . She knew that there was little to no chance of winning, but she believed that as long as the chance wasn’t zero, then it was good enough chance . Rachel then went into a FULL RELEASE state for a fraction of a second to pull out a tree from the ground, lifting it roots and all . Once it was uprooted Rachel went into a semi RELEASE state, this state was something she invented to combat the recoil from using RELEASE .

Upon entering her semi RELEASE state Rachel held onto the tree she pulled out and started swinging it . The power of her swing made all the other nearby trees get smashed into piles of broken wood . The charging members of the Shadow Mercenaries stopped for a moment to evade the incoming strike .

They looked at the thin little girl, and were amazed by the power her little body possessed . They already read the reports about this technique called RELEASE that uses the full potential of a human’s muscles . They have all been given a detailed report of the martial art Rachel uses and even though they knew about it, seeing it first hand was something else entirely .

They all stood their stunned by the destruction Rachel’s strike displayed . This was someone they had to capture alive?

When Rachel saw she didn’t hit anyone she charged forward with her thirty feet long tree . She swung the three again and this time, Hektor took a defensive stance and wanted to take the strike head on . In the whole organization Hektor was the one who had the strongest defensive techniques, and his current equipment was only second to Richter . So he was confident that he could take the incoming strike and redirect it, giving them an opening to lunged at Rachel .

When Rachel saw what Hektor was planning to do she sneered, and used full RELEASE for a second . The moment the attack was about to reach Hektor, Rachel went into full RELEASE making the power of her strike went beyond what it was before .

Hektor who was in a horse stance unknowingly took the strike head on and was surprised as he felt how powerful the strike was, and he knew that he couldn’t stop it . Still he was quick to react, the moment he realized the strike was too powerful he loosened his muscles and jumped at the direction the attack was heading towards . Doing what he did lessened the damage he received but it was still able to damage Hektor which resulted in his right hand being slightly numbed . Still that wasn’t enough to bring down Hektor as he stood there with his right arm slightly bruised .

While trying to recover a bit from the last strike, Hektor signaled the others to attack . When the other four were about to begin their real attack, Rachel stood there momentarily stunned at what she saw . She wasn’t expecting that the strike she unleashed that was meant to kill the opponent only damage the enemy that much .

’These Shadow Mercenaries are much stronger than expected . ’ Rachel didn’t have enough time to contemplate, as the other agents started to open fire . Rachel blocked making use of the huge tree she had as a shield . That was when she heard something weird .

The sound the bullets made when they hit the tree was different . Rachel then noticed that the bullets weren’t made of lead, copper, nylon or anything like that, they were made of rubber . They were using rubber bullets as they face her! When Rachel saw this, she got a really angry .

She knew that these people weren’t here to kill her, they were here to simply to capture her . Still what was with this difference in treatment, based on the report given to her by Evangeline, the agent that attacked her used live ammunition .

"You guys are actually looking down on me! Fine, I won’t win this way anyway . It’s all or nothing . " When Rachel said this she threw the tree she was holding at one of the enemy agents . The enemy agent who was Daryl saw the incoming tree and unsheathed the sword that was hidden behind his back and used it to slice through the tree .

Once he was about done cleaving the tree into two pieces, he saw Rachel above him ready to punch . Daryl seeing this was about to counter using his daggers, but then he remembered how powerful this girl was, that not even Hektor was able to block her attack . So instead of counterattacking Daryl jumped away to evade .

Daryl was able to barely dodge Rachel as she pounded the ground with her fist, upon contact with the ground, the land within the area they were fighting in trembled like a makeshift earthquake, and the ground she struck turned into a crater . When Daryl saw this he had cold sweat all over his body . That strike would’ve made him into mush .

Even the others watching this scene couldn’t believe their eyes . This wasn’t the strength of a B rank merc, heck this wasn’t the strength of an A rank merc . This was definitely the strength of a S rank merc, nearing SS rank .

Right now Rachel was using full RELEASE, which temporarily boosted her strength making it close to Lyner’s peak strength . Her version of full RELEASE was even better than her father’s which made it possible for her to boost her strength this much without killing herself . Still the technique had a drawback, she can only maintain this strength for about five minutes . Once that five minute mark was over the recoil from using the technique would make her body feel extreme pain, then she would faint and will only be able to move after three days of sleep .

Still at the current situation she had no choice, seeing as this was the only way she would have a chance of winning . Though escaping was also an option, Rachel was so angry at these people for capturing her friends and Alex, she wasn’t really thinking straight, which made her unconsciously toss the thought of escaping aside .
