The five intruders stood in a tight circle.
Their eyes tracked every movement in the swirling fog.
The Mist Human stood still, its single glowing eye watching them like a hawk.
The leader clenched his fists. "Activate [Execution Protocol Lock]."
At once, all five of them shimmered slightly, their forms fading into a haze.
Their movements grew faster and quieter, their steps leaving no sound on the damp ground.
"Don't hold back."
The Mist Human moved.
It shifted its sword and gun.
The sword lengthened into an axe, and the gun stretched into a Gatling barrel, spinning fast.
"Watch out!" the fourth shouted.
He rolled aside as bullets of compressed mist flew in all directions.
The fifth operative lunged forward, his blades slashing at the Mist Human's legs.
But it jumped high, spinning as it landed.
Its weapon shifted again into a spear.
It thrust forward, the spear tip gleaming like a star in the fog.
The third operative blocked it with crossed blades, sparks flying.
