Chapter 206 - 170.1 : Small Clash (2/2)
The withered hand was clenched, forming a fist and was followed by a low and emotionless voice
”Space Shackles.”
Transparent chains, which appeared from nothingness, wrapped themselves around the drill and forced it to go downwards, crashing heavily on the waters and creating large waves. A whirlpool was created due to the Void magic which absorbed water nonstop, there was even a miserable eft which turned into a bloody mist due to the collateral damage of the spinning drill and the pointy tip constructed from pure Void Magic.
'2 million Health Points... this is nothing. I guess he isn't serious.. yet.'
Arthur didn't mind losing that amount of Health, he activated the Pain Immunity so he wasn't feeling anything. He left the plant's body and aimed for an eft which was waiting for a good opportunity to show up and attack one of the youngsters.
Since his speed was beyond what the eft could react to, he possessed it in a flash after finishing it with a thick bolt of Natural Lightning that struck its body and burst its heart almost instantaneously.
'I guess without fighting personally, he won't go all out, but it's fine this way too.'
Using the eft's large body, Arthur got out of the water and randomly attacked a disciple without using any flashy attacks, he opened his mouth to swallow a poor kid only to be struck by Kai Min's, who came at him with fast speed and slashed with his saber.
With Kai Min coming to attack, the old man was obviously behind him but this time, he wasn't shrouded and invisible which made the youngsters look at him with curiosity and awe.
As the saber cut a deep wound on the large eft, the monster howled in pain which made Kai Min proud of his attack but he soon found that something was amiss when he noticed that the eft was howling in pain but wasn't pushed back, unlike the rest of the previous efts, which would cower back and flee immediately.
Alas, Kai Min's reactions were a second too late, the eft opened its mouth and spat a weird deep green liquid. Even the Spatial Master wasn't able to save him as the liquid splashed on his skin and clothes, make the boy writhe in pain and scream in agony.
In a burst of anger, the Spatial Master, who was preoccupied with whatever controlled those vines, attacked the eft without holding back.
Arthur felt a strong force bind his 'body' down, he wasn't able to move an inch as he felt as if he was locked in a separate dimension. However, that didn't last long as his Dark-Star Body Strengthening Technique self-activated itself, shattering this separate dimension and creating a transparent protective layer around the eft.
The old man didn't seem to mind what happened as he viciously punched the eft, which literally cut the monster in two. The two parts of fell on the water, never to be seen again.
Arthur, who decided not to act, lost 40 million Health but he wasn't that worried. With his high Health Recovery stats, that amount of Health will recover in no time.
He didn't have a full grasp of how powerful the opponent is, but at least he saw some of his moves. Nonetheless, if his plants proceeded as expected, he doesn't even need to fight this fellow, it will be one deadly and thorough attack with no means of retaliation whatsoever.
Arthur left the eft's body and dived deep underwater. He took out a bone shark from his storage and possessed it. Having fast swimming speed allows him to cross the swamp easier and adding [Sneak Max lv] along with [Silent Steps Max Lv] and [Noise Control] made him able to pass undetected by the lurking monsters underwater. Moreover, the shark had pointy bones at the front, which made it almost perfect for drilling the earth.
His plan was set in motion, the poison he spat on Kai Min was not fatal but it caused severe pain, almost unbearable. Furthermore, the same kind of GPS was hidden in one of the youngsters who was rather close to Kai Min, a male with the name of Seralo. It was this young man that Arthur decided to possess when he was going to launch his move against the Spatial Master.
