[Energy barrier 100% deployed. The battlesuit’s functions have been brought down 20.8% because of water pressure. Movement will feel a little unnatural.]
Level S battlesuit.
Even though it has been configured according to the environment, he is 2000m into the water. Cha Jun Sung isn’t a fish. Of course there are restrictions.
The only proper thing Cha Jun Sung purchased in the level S store is his battlesuit. He only looked at the level S support gear in awe because he didn’t have enough points.
He lost what he had, so the only difference from other Rankers is his battlesuit.
‘Heavy.’
That was the first feeling Cha Jun Sung had when he left Albatrus.
His energy was consumed faster than normal as well.
It’s because he’s maintaining the energy barrier at 100%.
This is the only way to resolve the issue of water pressure. 20% was taken off, so he can only show 80% of his true abilities.
[You can last 1 hour with the air from your oxygen tank.]
[It is a compressed oxygen tank, but it was measured on the standard of normal breathing volume. So as an aftermath of battle, he will run out of breath more quickly.]
“1 hour? It won’t take even 30 minutes. Don’t worry and just watch.”
Kyak!
Penomina detected Cha Jun Sung’s presence.
However, it did not approach him.
Rather, it kept watching the Albatrus behind him and kept getting further away.
[View radius! Sound wave mode!]
Because it is inside the ocean, his heat detection and infrared ray detection don’t pick up Penomina’s movement easily.
[Overload, are you okay?]
[Other than my body feeling a little heavy, it’s generally pretty okay.]
Penomina is swimming 2km outside.
That is definitely an invitation.
It is an invitation to come and try catching it.
[I’ll follow it.]
[It’s too dangerous. It could be a trap. If we focus an attack of hydraulic guns and hydraulic impact guns, even the Penomina wouldn’t be able to withstand it.]
He collected basic information about Penomina.
He can kill it now.
[It’s okay. Even if it’s a trap, it won’t be like I can’t get out of it. An opponent like that is perfect to start my exploration of the underwater world in.]
Cha Jun Sung had underwater battle in mind when he first boarded the Albatrus. He hadn’t interfered until now because the opponent had been too weak.
Underwater battle is only doable if it is up to standard. He can’t open the hatch and go out for lower level mutants.
[The Penomina will completely run away if the Albatrus moves, so we will leave the hydraulic guns loaded.]
Bang!
Cha Jun Sung turned the Overbooster on.
His body shoots through the ocean.
The Penomina must have thought it succeeded in luring him because it stopped once the Albatrus was only slightly visible.
It thought that this was a distance it could run away in.
Cha Jun Sung threw his body into the mouth. He jabbed Hades forward and adjusted the Overbooster to speed ahead.
It was so intense seawater around him whirled and became a tornado.
The stupid Penomina swallowed the tornado.
Penomina’s flesh ripped up and Cha Jun Sung got out.
He went in through the mouth, but he’s not sure whether he came out through its neck or the back of its head. The configuration of its body is very different from not just humans but ordinary mutants as well.
But there must be damage when seeing the blood come out.
Kyak!
A scream.
It is a scream full of pain.
Attacking first is important in a battle.
The win could be determined with that first hit if the enemy is caught off guard.
The Penomina struggles and dozens of thin and thick tentacles wave around. He can’t tell whether they’re trying to wrap around him, hit him, or go through him.
He brought Hades up.
Is it because they are underwater?
A clear vacuum with a blue light cuts the tentacle coming at him from the front in half.
Cha Jun Sung used the time while the tentacle was being cut to try and attack, but the Penomina isn’t just watching.
