Chapter 2080 - Hidden
Ting!
I foiled another of its attempts at my weakness, but like always, it attacked again without waiting for fractions of seconds, and I moved my rapier to defend.
Hun!
Whoos.h.!.+
As I was doing that, I had sensed something, and a powerful gale of green wind released from my body toward the ground, which is a marsh war of the snakeman"s domains.
It had been hiding for minutes, doing nothing other than strengthening its domain to suppress me, a suppression which I have largely shaken off with my abilities. Its sneak attack was no surprise to me; what surprised me was the power of it. It is nearly equal to attacks that Bearman is attacking me.
That makes it even more dangerous; the poison is always stronger than the pure strength and has the ability to kill a much powerful enemy than them.
Sup Sup Sup
Thousands of tentacles have materialized under the marsh water, and now they are coming at me. The green gale had released from me, and as it left, it had transformed into thousands of finger size arrows before it pierced into the marsh water.
The attack is not simple as it looked; I have produced a gale from my rule-bending power and added a heavy dose of my inheritance energy to power it before adding an extremely faint amount of energy into it; I want to see what this renowned energy could do.
Bang Bang Bang!
I knew the result soon enough, the tiny arrows clashed against the thousands of tentacles underwater, and as they clashed. The tiny arrows begin to destroy the powerful poison tentacles, not only exploding them but also vaporizing the poison power, which could merge into a domain and strengthen it
Ting!
While I have done that, I again defended against the attack of Bearman, who had a faint surprise in its eyes, seeing me crus.h.i.+ngly dealing with the attack of its friends.
"It looks like even when overestimating you, we have ended up underestimating you but no more," It said with a sigh, and a powerful aura spread out of its body, not like an explosion but like a wave, but as it spread, it begins to explode the air particles.
Thick crystalline energy was released from it and covered the whole lance before it began to morph into the runes, creating an elaborate formation that gave a very dangerous feeling to me.
"Legion of Crystal!"
The Bearman shouted and attacked, and this time, there was not a single lance that came at me, but hundreds of them, and each of them and each of every one of them is extremely powerful.
"Second Boost!"
I activated the second boost; it is not the attack I could defend with just a first boost. I need much greater power. Thankfully, I will have better control, with the intense bout with Bearman, which had to help me know my strength better.
TING TING TING
My rapier clashed against the lance, and to my surprise, it did not explode into dust or even crack appear on it as I expected. I had not crashed against the energy lance but its own lance, and when I moved my rapier to stop the other lance, I again clashed against its own lance instead of the energy lance.
It did not take me even a second to understand what type of attack it was; these hundreds of lances which I had thought to be energy lances, are not, instead they are a projection of its own weapon, and it would appear on their place any time and the formation on its lance is for that job.
This attack is extremely dangerous and complex that normal Master cla.s.s Tyrants would not be able to perform it; the power, skills, and talent needed to do something like that is immense.
Hun!
While I was defending against this extremely powerful attack, the snakeman had also again launched the attack, and this time, its attack was a lot more muted or could be said extremely muted.
It had seemed to have learned a lot from its previous attack, how I had sensed it the moment it had materialized deep under the marsh water that this time, it was completely invisible both to senses and the soul.
It had released some smoke-type attack which will infiltrate into one without one"s knowledge before revealing itself at the right time.
This invisible smoke is extremely powerful; if it entered my body, even with the strength of my body and immunity I have, I would be seriously injured, others of my strength would be killed within a minute by its attack.
I was right about this snakeman; it is far more dangerous than the Bearman. I had mixed my soul sense with rule-bending power to detect an invisible attack, which I would not be able to detect if it had been just my soul sense, despite its power and purity it had got after getting refined by the art.
This is not an attack that snakeman could perform with its power; there is something else my soul sense is not that easy to evade, and if I am not wrong, it is definitely that crown artifact of its which is giving it a powerful layer of invisibility.
I did not react to the mist, acted as I did not discover it, and let it inside my armor before storing it into a secure formation; I wanted to see what these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds could do.
TING TING TING
The snakeman is not acting alone; the Bearman also coordinating with it. As it launched this invisible poisonous smoke, the Bearman doubled the power of its attack and increased the power of its attacks continuously, so I remained focused on myself and acted like the smoke was infiltrating me.
I wanted them to believe that, let them think their plan is working.. It will help me land a strike at the perfect moment, and unlike them, I will not miss my chance when it comes.
