The Hexaminis also have the ability to create barriers like the Hexadrom, but their resource consumption seems to be greater. There is a drop of 1% in their energy consumption when they deployed the barrier protecting them. After one minute, the energy level dropped by 0.01% as a result of maintaining the barrier on them and the one above.

Unlike the Hexadrom that mostly defended Adrian's attack, the Hexaminis would fire beams of light using concentrated mana. Sirius tried to use his strengthened attack when the Hexamini suddenly fired a beam of light from one of its corners. The beam of light was faster than Sirius, so he got damaged by a fair amount.

When Solstice saw the attack of the Hexamini, she no longer resorted to close range attacks. The Hexaminis would only fire the beams of light in small bursts. The energy level of the Hexaminis would also decrease by 0.1% every time that they fired a beam.

"I am not confident enough to evade that beam of light in close quarters. It might be night right now, but my speed is still slower than Sirius. I will definitely get blasted by that beam of light and probably lose an arm or two." Solstice muttered as she only released projectiles made of her blood.

She might be losing health as she uses her own blood but her regenerative abilities are boosted at night. She can fire twenty bloody arrows per minute and recover the health that she lost at night. The only downside is the slow fight that will surely take a day or so.

Sirius is also at the same impasse as Solstice as he also learned that he cannot attack in close range. He opted to use the shadows that he can control in order to try and defeat the Hexamini. The shadows could not even pierce the barrier affecting the Hexamini.

"Sirius, use Nether Rush!" Adrian commanded as he could sense the feeling of helplessness that Sirius is emitting via their soul link.

Sirius accepted the command and initiated his skill. He became pure nether energy as his form looked like what he is when Adrian summons him in his true form. Sirius with his new form then took a gaseous appearance when he moved. This made the Hexamini not detect Sirius as an entity but only as air which made the barrier not block his attack.

Sirius looked just like a smoke made of nether mist attacking the Hexamini. Every time that Sirius hits the Hexamini, it would blink its lights as if indicating to the others that it is under enemy attack. This made two of the three Hexaminis chasing Lycan, Saena, and Kanlaon change direction to the one Sirius is attacking.

Thankfully, the duration of the Nether Rush skill is ten minutes which means the two other Hexaminis that came to aide the one being attacked by Sirius is also the subject of the skill. Sirius hit the three Hexaminis in orderly fashion and cracks started to appear on the flawless light brown metal armor of the mechanical beasts.

Five minutes into the duration of Nether Rush, the three Hexaminis being attacked by Sirius emitted a bluish light. The bluish light enveloped the three Hexamini's body and the cracks that appeared on the armor suddenly disappeared. Solstice saw this sudden healing of mechanical parts and is shocked.

These flying mechanical beasts are basically like golems which means they are not living beings. It should have been impossible for the Hexaminis to 'heal' their wounds. Solstice relayed this to her team members and Adrian borrowed Sirius' vison for a moment to see the details on the three Hexaminis facign Sirius.

Monster: Hexamini

Level: 190

Health: 100%

Energy Level: 85%

The health of the Hexaminis is perfectly full but the energy level that they have dropped by such a large amount. Adrian distributed this information to his team members, and they now designed a way to make sure that they damage the Hexaminis.

Sirius kept damaging the three Hexaminis to the point that the energy levels of each dropped to 70%. Sirius would have been able to push through the 60% threshold, but the duration of Nether Rush has already ended.

When three of the Hexaminis dropped to 70% energy level, the blue light that they emitted suddenly changed to a red color. The five Hexaminis then grouped together and combined their barriers while emitting the red color as if they are signaling that something dangerous is about to happen.

Before Solstice and Lycan can determine why the Hexaminis are acting like that, a huge beam of light suddenly got fired from the Hexadrom's direction. The next thing that the two players learned is of the death of Adrian.

[Your party member, Equinox, has died.]

A few moments before the supposed beam hitting Adrian with all its might, Adrian is currently thinking of a way to bypass the barrier created by the Hexadrom. Adrian only thought of one way and that is to combine multiple spells together. He also made sure that the spear spun like a top in order to try and break the barrier.

With the spear rotating like a drill, the barrier that should not have been unbreakable had signs of being cracked. The barrier started to weaken as a result of layering Quantum Spacemine and Gravity Control on the point where the tip of the rotating spear is in contact.

The Hexadrom also detected the threat which is why it blinked red light compared to the white light that it emitted. Adrian thought that he managed to do a great job, but he suddenly got surrounded by ten half foot tall hexaminis that the Hexadrom released. The half foot tall hexaminis then emitted lightning and combined with each other to form a cage.

The ten half foot tall hexaminis trapped Adrian in a cage and he could not even free himself. The next thing that Adrian saw is the Hexadrom suddenly pinning violently and creating a small sphere of light from one of its corners. After a minute of charging, Adrian could feel that the amount of mana being collected in that point is something devastating.

"I need to get out of that cage." Adrian muttered as he is about to use Blink to escape.

"Please do not escape yet, master. The Hexadrom is currently collecting a lot of mana in its point. If you evade the Hexadrom will then reabsorb 90% of the mana it is gathering which means its energy usage will not drop significantly." Paradox stated which made Adrian stop on his tracks.

Adrian tried to use Blink to escape at the last minute, but the large beam of light is faster than his reaction time.. He died with getting hit but a large blast of concentrated mana to the face.
