When I said it, Ninmar's attack stopped. I didn't waste the chance and jumped as far as possible, giving it some distance. I threw the stick in my left hand for a moment and immediately took off the helmet, letting my long black hair unravel.
I caught the stick and attacked. However, different from before, now I managed to push Ninmar back. Even the bullets that shot towards me were unable to help Ninmar. Nah! I pull my words. Without these bullets, my opponent would have been killed. He didn't face me without help. He's not stupid.
On the other hand, I came to understand why my subordinates did not like wearing helmets. Wearing a helmet made my instincts less. My reflexes are also much faster without a helmet. Since I was a child, I have been educated to wear headgear. So, I never knew that taking off the helmet could improve my abilities to this great extent.
However, I can't continue this. I stopped while Ninmar was still retreating, putting some distance between us.
I looked into the hand, opened it and closed it. Even though I was wearing gloves, the cold was still able to reach my hands. In fact, I could feel my movements were stiffer and slower than usual. And, if left unchecked, it's not impossible that I got hypothermia. However, I'm sure the cornered isn't just me.
Despite lowering the temperature, Ninmar is still a human being. Even though he lowered the temperature, his body was still affected. In other words, the risk of hypothermia also threatens him.
My main controls are iron and titanium. Although I always referred to the wires I carried as steel, there was not the slightest trace of carbon in these steel cables. Carbon is an organic element, so it cannot be controlled. It can be felt, but it cannot be controlled.
The gunshots appeared. Unlike the previous shot from where, I could tell the true origin of the sound of all these new shots coming, the sky. When I woke up, I didn't see Ninmar anywhere. However, I don't care.
I took off the robe and let all the steel ropes tied to my body fall to the ground. With restraint, I controlled all these steel ropes like a whip. The bullets that were raining down on me changed direction. All those bullets weren't scared, but I parried them.
Five seconds passed. Ten seconds passed. However, there has been no sign of this hail of bullets going to stop. Shots from the other direction, which did not cause any sound, also grew more intense. However, unfortunately, not a single bullet made it past my defense.

"So, Umma, how much longer until your bullet runs out?"
"About 15 minutes if I keep showering him like I do now."
Ninmar and I are hiding behind the building. We don't want to get into the building. If it is in a building that is a narrow room, the weapon of the Orion leader is very dangerous. We will not be able to avoid and give distance.
At first, I thought the leader of Orion, who was Illuvia's mother, would have quartz control, just like his daughter. However, Lugalgin refuted and said that Illuvia had obtained quartz control from her father. So, this mother and son battle technique was as different as heaven and earth.
And, according to Lugalgin's instructions, Ninmar and I will confront Orion's leadership. It's not just us. Lugalgin also gave orders that we bring as many snipers as possible. At first I thought Lugalgin was too much, especially if I had brought thousands of firearms. However, as soon as I saw the ability of the woman, I pulled my words.
"Ninmar, can't you use your efficient attacks? Making a needle out of the nitrogen in his body?"
"Unfortunately no. the steel rope that moved like tentacles rubbed against each other, heating the temperature around it. This makes the nitrogen around it impossible to freeze. In addition, this temperature drop also has no effect anymore. He who is in the middle of all those steel ropes will feel warm."
"In other words, the only one exposed to hypothermia risk is us and he's safe?"
Ninmar nodded.
Using binoculars, I saw how the bullets he was throwing landed on walls, glass, roads, and other places. If I or Ninmar were around, it would not be impossible for us to be hit by the bullets.
I tried to drop one weapon from the sky onto the leader of Orion. I've put a bomb on every weapon. At least, one weapon is equivalent to 5 grenades. However, it seemed, that Orion leader was completely wary. The steel rope he controlled was able to extend up to 5 floors, making my weapon explode at a height of 20 meters. Still with his steel rope, he repelled and repelled the scattered fragments of the bomb.
"The world is vast. I didn't expect anyone to be controlling that crazy."
Just saying that, a vibration felt.
"Corrections. Other than Mulisu and Ukin, I didn't expect anyone to be controlling that crazy."
Yep. I'm sure this vibration comes from the fight of Ukin and Mulisu.
Back to the point of issue. How can we defeat the leader of Orion? Lugalgin said we didn't have to beat him. Our main goal, in fact, was to simply restrain the leader of Orion so that he would not pester the other members' fight. But there is no harm in wanting to do more? I want Lugalgin to praise me.
I'm not the only one who thinks so. Ninmar thought the same thing. There was a reason why he had lowered the temperature from the start. In fact, he wished he could stick a control-busting sword in the woman's body. In fact, Lugalgin suggested that we keep our distance.
"In the end, we can only go back to the main goal, huh?"
"Yes, that is," Ninmar answered listlessly.
"Hello," Ninmar pressed on the ear, making a call on the other. "We're back to our original goal. So, don't stop the gunfire. Keep shooting."
[Ready!]
Our colleague's reply was also heard in my earphones because we were a team.
"So, Ninmar, do we fix it back to the original goal? Are you trying to hit him again?"
"Forget over! I dared to try because the helmet glass had dewy and the movement of his body also slowed because of the cold temperature. However, now, he was no longer wearing a helmet. Plus, the cold temperature effect had already disappeared. With a normal temperature, I'm sure his abilities will be much crazier than before."
"If only you hadn't stopped when he mentioned the Ice Queen. Maybe we can succeed with a new goal."
"Well how else? You know for yourself how embarrassed I am by that nickname."
"Yes, yeah. I-i understand. Yeah, that's it." I'm taking a breath. "Ready?"
"Ready!"
We both split up. I go left and Ninmar goes right. We both circled the building to attack Orion's leader. However, we will not face each other. I appeared at the west crossroad and Ninmar appeared at the south. If faced, there is a risk of the Orion leadership dodging and making us open fire to our own colleagues.
Other than that shot from above the Orion leader, I deployed all the firearms that I had scattered around the building. There were at least 684 firearms hovering around and behind me, 954 hovering above Orion's lead making a hail of bullets. And, lastly, two guns in both hands.
All weapons are assault rifles. With the distance separating us not up to 100 meters, the accuracy was more than enough. I did not release bullets simultaneously, but alternately, fired bullets without pause.
Bullet attacks also hit from the south. I'm guessing Ninmar already used his doll. In this war, he deployed all five of his iron puppets at once. I don't know if he's using all five in one place or scattered.
However, what struck me a little was the ice spear strike. However, what ice spear was suitable to call Ninmar's attack? The attack is not really like a long iceberg like in the comics, but rather a mix of nitrogen and bullets.
Ninmar's other secret technique is that he fuses nitrogen into bullets. When the bullet was repelled, the nitrogen would break apart and freeze in the air, bringing up fragments of ice in the air. So, Ninmar's attack looked as if his bullet had turned into ice shards.
However, unfortunately, with all the attacks we have launched, there is no sign that the leader will lose. In fact, slowly, I could see the speed of his steel rope increasing.
I pressed the earphones, "Gin, apparently, we could only stall for up to 10 minutes. More than that, it's gonna be risky."
