The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 464: Changed Strategy
Chapter 464: Changed Strategy
But the merman was bound to be disappointed. The cooperation between Diana and Storm was so intense considering that the two of them had already fought side by side for quite a long time.
Additionally, as time went by, the injuries that they had suffered before had already begun healing, and the combat strength that they possessed was returning to them. The moment that they were back to their full strength, they were capable of fighting against the merman.
But of course, considering the difference between the power levels of both sides, the two of them were having a disadvantage, and it was clear that they were going to be defeated after some time.
But even then, the ability that they possessed to fight against the merman who was obviously stronger than those at the same level, and was already more than two levels above them, it was clear just how strong they were.
At this point, the merman could not help but wonder who it was that was the master of the wolf. If the master of the wolf was actually in the platinum rank, that implied that there were actually supposed to be a total of six summoned creatures.
Looking at the strength of the two that he was fighting against, if six of them actually appeared, he was not really sure that he could win against them. But even then, he believed that they would definitely not be capable of dealing with him.
With the pride that he possessed, it was definitely impossible for him to accept the fact that he could actually be defeated by weaklings of this world.
Explosions occurred one after the other, and those that were watching from a distance could not help but be mesmerized by the damage that the three of them were causing to the surrounding areas.
Although they had already retreated a distance away, they were forced to retreat once again considering that the shockwave that was being generated by the fight between the three of them was so intense, and those that possessed low combat capability would definitely be affected if they were any closer.
Olivia who was also watching the fight could not help but get the motivation to get stronger. She was supposed to protect the territory during the time that Henry was not available, but right now, she was actually the one that was being protected.
Just looking at the power of the merman, it was clear that if Diana and Storm were not here, this territory would have definitely been destroyed.
About 4 minutes later, both Diana and Storm had already suffered several injuries. That was to be expected considering that they were fighting against an opponent that was way stronger than themselves.
But even then, they just kept on fighting, while taking healing potions whenever there was a chance for them to do so. For that reason, they were able to hold on for this long. Had it not been for the healing potions, they would have already been defeated long ago.
The merman on the other hand was already getting frustrated. He had not expected that dealing with just a small territory was going to be this difficult. It was clear that if just the sea monsters were the ones that came over, they would have already been dealt with by now.
The speed at which he was attacking continuously increased, and the intent to destroy everything around him continued rising within his heart. The moment that he realized that it was going to take a little more time to be able to destroy these two that he was fighting against, he decided to utilize another strategy to deal with them.
It was clear that they were fighting against him to protect the territory that was behind them. But how were they going to be capable of protecting themselves while at the same time protecting the territory and the people behind them?
With an evil smile on his face, he attacked the two of them. Of course, the two of them immediately reacted and went ahead to block the attack. But at the same time as they were dealing with the attack that had been launched towards them, the merman on the other hand simply raised his hand and attacked towards the territory.
Water droplets suddenly gathered in the air. Then in the next moment, they condensed to a high degree, before the thousands of water droplets suddenly charged towards the territory. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
The speed at which the water droplets were moving at was incredible, and the moment that Diana and Storm noticed that, it was already late. They had not expected that this merman was going to attack the territory instead of them.
Additionally, currently, they were already occupied, and it was impossible for them to be able to break free and move to protect Olivia and the others. Additionally, the speed at which the water droplets were moving at was definitely not something that they could catch up to before they arrived at their destination.
Olivia and the others also noticed the moment that the merman attacked them. Immediately, they reacted, trying to protect themselves. But even then, just feeling the tremendous power that was contained in the water droplets that were rushing over, they immediately realized that it was definitely impossible for them to be able to prevent the attack from dealing damage to them.
Olivia also understood that the moment that they were struck by this attack, they were definitely going to die. As for how many people were going to survive, that was something that was going to depend on luck. Just a single attack from the merman was definitely capable of eliminating hundreds or even thousands of gold rank and below mutant warriors.
Although she understood that they were currently hopeless in front of the attack, it was not as if she was going to give up and allow herself to die just like that. So, she immediately used the ice element in order to set up a wall in front of them. At the same time, she attacked using other skills that she possessed, launching several ice shards towards the water droplets.
She was not the only one considering that everybody else also attacked. They understood that they were going to die if they did not attack. So, they did not hold back at all during the time that they were attacking.
A mixture of attacks made the scene quite chaotic. But even then, all the attacks were directed towards the water droplets that were charging over.
The moment that the attacks that they had launched came into contact with the water droplets, they were actually destroyed, but the water droplets remained intact.
Everything had of course happened at an incredible speed. The only reason why Olivia and the others were able to react on time was simply because of the distance that existed between them and the merman. Otherwise, if the merman had attacked from a close distance, they would have definitely been eliminated without having a chance of reacting at all.
The futile attempt that Olivia and the others had launched in order to try and protect themselves was immediately destroyed. The water droplets that were moving at an incredible speed did not give them a chance of attacking for the second time.
In front of the water droplets, the walls that Olivia and the others had set in front of them in order to protect themselves were destroyed one after the other. In front of that attack, it was definitely impossible for them to be able to hold on.
The moment that Olivia and the others at the forefront thought that they were going to die, something that they had never expected happened.
The water droplets that were just about to pierce through them suddenly stopped completely. It was as if they had suddenly encountered an invisible wall in front of them, stopping them from advancing or retreating.
Then in the next moment, something else happened again. The water droplets began having an increase in temperature, before suddenly, they evaporated completely. And just like that, the attack that was about to wipe out a large number of people was completely disintegrated.
The merman had also been observing this, while at the same time trying to deal with Diana and Storm who were completely furious. But he had not expected that once again, something that he was not in control of was going to happen. The attack that he had launched by believing that it was definitely going to be able to deal with those humans was actually stopped.
The frown on his face intensified at this point. Immediately, he began looking around, trying to look for something. Finally, he focused in a single direction, on top of a building.
Of course he was not the only one who was surprised by what had happened. Immediately, everybody began looking around, trying to find what it was that the merman was also looking at.
It was then that they suddenly noticed that there was a figure that was standing on a destroyed building not far away from where they currently were. He was standing tall, and his figure was majestic.
As he stood there, everybody could actually think that he was just an ordinary person, considering that he was not giving any vibe that indicated his power level.
The eyes of the merman squinted as he looked at the figure that had appeared in the distance. Although the gap that existed between them was over 700 m, he could clearly see the appearance of the person that had appeared.
But there was another thing that had made his pupils contract drastically. That was the fact that he could not see any information about this black-haired young man who had appeared.
