The visibility under the water was only about one to two meters. There was a lot of white foam in the murky, yellowish water. If one looked carefully, one would also see all kinds of garbage in the water, including plastic bags, fruit skins and tampons. When the staff received Sheyan’s order to make the water turbid, they probably did not stop at adding soil into the water, but also dumped all their domestic garbage which had not been transported out for a long time into it.
Within the turbid yellow water that gushed and swirled, countless little bubbles escaped from Rocky’s mouth. Taking the chance of Rocky being suddenly hit on the head, Sheyan grabbed Rocky’s right hand and slammed his head into Rocky’s nose.
A bright red smoke-like trail instantly came out of Rocky’s nose. He was really close to Sheyan at the moment, so the both of them madly attacked each other in a frenzy. Gungnir may be powerful, but it could not fully display its might in this kind of close quarter combat.
More importantly, a fight under the water was radically different from a fight on the ground. Movement underwater would be affected by the resistance in the water, and breathing would also be greatly restricted. That was why the training program of professional special forces often contained underwater combat training.
As a Temperer, Rocky’s adaptability and fighting capability were no doubt stronger than that of ordinary humans. It would not take long before he would get used to fighting under the water, but since Sheyan had worked so hard to create this opportunity, how could he give Rocky the time to get used to it? After fighting for dozens of seconds, Sheyan quickly gained the upper hand.
Suddenly, the blue veins on Rocky’s forehead bulged, and a powerful force erupted from his body. His deformed right arm came swinging horizontally, its speed several times faster than his previous attacks. Rocky suddenly spread his palm and pressed it to Sheyan’s chest.
In the middle of his palm was a clear symbol that was glowing with a blue light. The light was flowing like waves. The symbol flew straight out and firmly adhered itself to Sheyan’s chest.
One might not know the meaning of this symbol, but anyone who laid eyes upon it could surely sense the profound and dignified feeling leaking out from it, like they were facing a towering mountain. This symbol was actually a divine text. Its meaning was “punishment”!!
Punishment, written in divine text!
Divine punishment!
As soon as the “punishment” symbol appeared, Sheyan was instantly blown back by more than ten meters. Even if the water was turbulent and muddy, it could not mask the symbol’s blue glow. Thus, Sheyan instantly became a vivid and prominent target!
The muscles on Rocky’s distorted right arm tightened, causing the three major blood vessels on the arm to swell and spread like a web. Rocky threw Gungnir at Sheyan!
The water around Gungnir immediately evaporated, producing a roar like a raging lion. A temporary spiral-shaped passageway appeared between Rocky and Sheyan.
Gungnir pierced through Sheyan’s chest, opening up a hole as large as a bowl. Blood filled the hole in an instant, and turned the turbid water around Sheyan red.
More shocking were the large amount of blue electric current left on the bloody hole in Sheyan’s chest. The strands of electricity gripped the wound like shackles, stubbornly interrupting his recovery like the most vicious curse! They even tried to burrow into the blood vessels in Sheyan’s chest, but that immediately triggered a counterattack from the ‘Stairway of the Sun’.
After that throw, Rocky’s right arm instantly shrunk back to its previous size, while Rocky himself appeared to be out of breath, as evident from the abundance of bubbles which escaped from his mouth together with strands of dark blood. His expression showed that he was exhausted. Evidently, his transformation had reached the time limit and had come to an end.
The weird blue colour which he had been suppressing immediately lashed back and spread to his entire body in an instant. Even his hair had turned an indigo blue. Then, the weird blue rapidly disappeared. It had completely corroded everything on the surface and was now turning inside towards his internal organs!!
Rocky trembled violently from head to toe. He looked as weak as an ordinary man who had just finished a 10,000-meter marathon. But at that moment, he suddenly saw Sheyan, who previously laid stiff in the water, jolt into motion. Sheyan opened his eyes again and looked towards Rocky with a fiery gaze! Then, like a fish swimming in water, Sheyan pounced towards Rocky to once again haunt him like a vengeful spirit.
“Sh*t!! How is he still alive!?!?” Rocky was absolutely shocked. Based on his assumption, Sheyan should have used his honorary dosage previously, so after receiving this spear attack, even if he did not enter a state of near death, he should not have much HP left. But contrary to Rocky’s expectations, Sheyan actually still dared to fight back?!
Once again, they were tangled up as if they were wounded beasts, roaring at each other while tearing each other’s bodies apart. In this situation, Sheyan still had the advantage. Although his head was hit hard by Rocky again, he also managed to give Rocky’s stomach a fierce punch. The pain made Rocky groan, but that only resulted in him swallowing gulps of cold, muddy water. More blood mixed into the water and drifted away.
The water was still turbulent, but after the two were washed so far away, the water was not enough to fill up the entire underground tunnel anymore. That is to say, there was now air near the top of the tunnel.
Rocky did not have any bonuses or proficiencies in underwater combat, so he was already on the verge of running out of air. After all, underwater combat was a particularly oxygen-consuming activity. He immediately tried to struggle free to swim up for air. But how could Sheyan allow him to do that? He instantly attacked like he had gone crazy. When he saw that Rocky was beginning to get desperate, he stabbed a pair of fingers into Rocky’s eyes!
Although Gungnir was not that useful in close combat, it was worthy of its name as a powerful legendary grade weapon. At that instant, it suddenly flashed, and a cross that was filled with a holy vibe appeared from its surface to float mid-water. The cross was the soul of the Lance of Longinus, coming out to cause trouble for Sheyan!
This thing seemed to be able to sense its wielder’s crisis. The cross made up of milky white light projected an extremely condensed ray of light towards Sheyan’s fingers. However, Sheyan’s dexterity in water was no inferior to that on the ground. Sheyan’s hand shifted to the side by borrowing the flow of the water current, then continued stabbing towards Rocky’s eyes.
But when the ray of light missed, it actually refracted in the water and turned back to shine on Sheyan’s fingers. A holy flame rose and burned Sheyan’s fingers black. The finger poke that was sure to find its target also lost its accuracy because of that. Rocky slapped the water in a frenzy, desperately trying to swim to the cavity at the top to take in a precious breath of air!
However, Sheyan’s prowess in water was not to be underestimated. A person’s weight would be greatly reduced underwater due to buoyancy, and that was something that was difficult for other people to adapt to, but for Sheyan, it simply meant that his dexterity had increased.
Even though his initial attack was thwarted, he immediately reacted by borrowing the external force. With a flip of his wrist, his hand shot forward like a bolt of lightning!
Sheyan’s hand carried such strength that it produced numerous bubbles in the water as it moved. He instantly seized Rocky’s ankle and pulled him down with force! His hand was like a fierce shark that had opened its jaws wide to bite and pull its prey down into the deep sea!
Rocky’s mouth was centimeters away from the water surface, but before he could reach it, he was dragged down by Sheyan’s vicious hand! His chest felt so tight that it seemed like it was about to burst. The injury caused by Bind worsened even more. But Rocky had to endure the unbearable desire to inhale. He knew that if he gave in and sucked water into his lungs, even if he was on the ground, he would be coughing for several minutes afterwards, not to mention the chain reaction that would happen underwater.
“Godammit! Goddammit!!” Rocky’s heart was currently filled indignation and unbearable fury!
If only he had recovered from the injury he had suffered in the previous fight against Bind….
If only the time limit of the mission wasn’t this tight….
If only he was not submerged underwater….
If only he could join up with his teammates….
If any one of these four situations was possible, Rocky had the utmost confidence of killing Sheyan for sure! But all these factors combined forced Rocky into such a miserable state!
Rocky’s struggled violently under a severe lack of oxygen, but he knew that all this water had most likely been accumulated in haste, so the flood probably would not last very long. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to persevere until the very end.
Sheyan saw the opportunity and smashed down at Rocky’s head hard. Then, he clutched Rocky’s throat and slammed his head into the rocky wall nearby. Rocky’s mouth and nose were already above the water level by now, but because his throat was being choked by Sheyan, he still had difficulty breathing. Without paying heed to anything else, he focused all his attention and strength on prying open Sheyan’s grip on his neck.
When Rocky finally managed to inhale a desperate gulp of fresh air, he suddenly felt a warmth beside his ear. A gentle voice whispered, “You must be wondering why Bind didn’t use Evil Sword Apophis in his fight against you.”
When Rocky finally inhaled oxygen after a long period of suffocation, his body would temporarily feel soft and devoid of energy. This was caused by his muscles relaxing by instinct. When he heard what Sheyan said, his heart instantly sank!
The visibility under the water was only about one to two meters. There was a lot of white foam in the murky, yellowish water. If one looked carefully, one would also see all kinds of garbage in the water, including plastic bags, fruit skins and tampons.
