Chapter 682 - Rough Undercurrent (1/2)
Somewhere at sea, a piece of fresh meat was stuck into a metal hook on a chain and thrown overboard. Dozens of Drill Marlins smelled this delicious morsel and scrambled to chase after it.
The Glutton, gargantuan yet hidden due to its dark runes, began to quickly move for the surface, faster than the Drill Marlins were actually known for.
Gradually, they eventually reached the surface all the way from the deep ocean.
The other end of the chain shifted as if it was being manipulated by someone, someone who was shrouded in internal force that quickly went from the bottom of the ocean all the way to the surface.
The moment they breached, a pair of flaming wings exploded from this figure’s back and carried him high into the sky, overlooking the waters below!
Ding dong dong!
The chain was pulled up and the bait left the sea!
The Drill Marlins seemed to have sensed that something was wrong and one by one lept out from the sea. The sharp beak-like appendage at the end of their snouts were extremely sharp, as if they could pierce the heavens!
Plap!
A Drill Marlin jabbed into that piece of meat and dropped into the sea with its spoil.
Other Drill Marlins swam over to enjoy this morsel.
Since this moment, the originally calm sea was stirred into a whirlpool. A large column of water gushed out and sent a marlin soaring into the air!
Qin Feng pulled out the Verdant Emperor Saber and his figure flickered briefly before appearing near the marlin and swinging his blade!
Pfft!
A thin dark fuchsia line flashed past it and what was left was the bisected corpse of a B3-tier ultra beast.
Boom! Boom!
Two more columns of water picked up a pair of marlins and sent them flying toward Qin Feng as he repeated the previous action.
After three were killed in a row as the other Drill Marlins picked up on this nasty hunter. This time, without being swept up by a column of water, the group of marlins leapt out to stab at Qin Feng!
Swish swish swish!
The Drill Marlin fought in a manner that complimented their dazzling speed. They were the deep sea’s strongest assassins.
Crack!
Qin Feng’s internal force shook from the impact. Suddenly, he thought that he briefly heard the sound of his shield cracking just ever so slightly.
He took a breath, not daring to take this lightly anymore and swiftly swung his weapon.
“Burning Sword Glare!”
Slash slash slash!
In the blink of an eye, twenty Drill Marlins were killed!
Qin Feng turned off the monitoring system on his communicator.
The Glutton’s cannons were prepared by now and they proceeded to unleash volleys that tore through the Drill Marlins.
These fish were hardly Qin Feng’s opponents.
His power had reached B-tier. It was several times stronger than that of an A-tier aptitude user in their peak compared to before he was reborn.
“However, the further I go, the harder the next step becomes!”
He felt that even when hundreds of Drill Marlins had died and the energy they released was absorbed into his body, there was no sign of him getting stronger.
Fortunately Qin Feng could feel that his cells had not yet reached their limit or else he would really feel helpless!
