His optimized brain processed the threat in a fraction of a second. He saw the Guardian's finger tightening on the trigger. He saw the exact trajectory the plasma would take.
Sebastian simply leaned his torso two inches to the left.
BOOM!
A massive wave of blue plasma tore through the air exactly where Sebastian's chest had been a moment prior. The heat singed the edge of his black armor, but the attack completely missed.
The Guardian's eyes widened in shock behind his visor. He pumped the shotgun to
fire again.
He was far too slow.
Sebastian brought his kinetic rifle up. He didn't aim down the sights. He didn'tneed to. His physical synchronization allowed him to calculate the exact recoil perfectly.
He squeezed the trigger.
TAT-TAT-TAT!
A precise three-round burst of slugs erupted from the barrel.
Sebastian didn't aim for the heavy chest plate. He aimed for the weak points in the digital mesh.
