Book 5 Chapter 11.2 - Bandit
At this mont, several small creatures shot out from the still spraying ice and snow. They were less than a ter tall in size, their surroundings carrying a faint blue-colored pale color. Upon closer inspection, one would find that their skin were covered in an extrely fine layer of scales. They had large heads and even larger mouths, two water blue pupiless eyes at both sides of their heads. On their comparatively smaller bodies grew hands and feet similar to those of humans, but the large areas of fins and webbing displayed that they were aquatic creatures.
The brief interaction told Su that even though these little things shared a few traits with humans, the terrifying power their bodies contained was definitely not sothing humans could match. From their power and body proportions, these little creatures were already similar to creatures with exoskeletons like insects or prawns. Their tiny arms could imdiately display over a hundred kilograms of power, splitting apart the sturdy icy layer was sothing as easy as cutting cheese. The tongues at the center of their enormous mouths could shoot out poisonous ice arrows. Madeline’s warped heavy sword indicated that these ice arrows’ close distance power wasn’t weaker than rifle bullets.
If he had to describe them, then they were a bit similar to the fishn from olden era movies.
The six fishn soldiers that dropped down from the icy mist were all injured, every single one of them receiving a cut. Four of them didn’t have serious injuries, even though the cuts were long, they were only two centiters deep. Those fine scales possessed far greater defensive strength than what one would expect, the mucus covering the scale surfaces even more so preventing the blades’ edges from digging too deeply. However, the last two fishn already couldn’t crawl up, one of them having its enormous mouths cut open, its entire head almost hacked apart. The other one was laying injured on the ground, the wound not that long, but wide and deep. Its body cavity was completely opened up, the inner organs and bodily fluids currently flowing along its injury. The last two fishn had their scales sliced off first, and then the blade’s tip gouged out the comparatively more delicate muscle tissue underneath, thus turning the light injuries into fatal wounds.
Without waiting for the four fishn soldiers to completely stand up, Su rushed past their sides once again, the short blades’ edges accurately and precisely moving through their injuries, increasing the depths of their cuts several tis! However, these fishn’s vitality was powerful to a shocking degree, the fishn soldiers still able to fire an ice arrow out of their tongues even after having their brains torn apart, striking Su’s lower back!
Su’s body shook, as if he was hit by a rifle at close distance. Only after a small half of the ten centiter icy thorn penetrated his body did Su’s strengthened tissues stop it. The thorn possessed many fine crevices, within them stored transparent poison. When the poison entered his body, the cells in Su’s body began to lose vitality patch after patch, and there were even more that directly died!
Su released a light grunt, sowhat unexpectedly troubled by these fishn soldiers. With how tough his current body’s cells were as well as his terrifying reaction speed, it could be said that what he was least scared of was poison. However, despite this being the case, the ice thorn’s poison still killed off a large expanse of tissues, so one could imagine how terrifying it was!
The blood vessels in Su’s body began to pump harder, the blood completely erupting. Several dozen blood cells gathered together, and then as if they turned into miniature vicious beasts, followed different routes towards the areas invaded by the poison. anwhile, the part of his body that was struck by the ice thorn also quickly changed, the tissues that made contact with the poison quickly turning into fiber, losing all vitality and water content, becoming similar to a wall that plugged up the poison. In the blink of an eye, the blood cells that were activated already rushed towards the bodily fluids that carried the poison. The cells around the poisoned area had already transmitted the poison’s characteristics to his entire body, so the activated blood imdiately locked onto drop after drop of poison particles, swallowing and surrounding them, transporting them along the injury’s border.
Su straightened his body. His muscles were powerful. With a pu sound, the ice thorn already bounced out from his waist area, and then a transparent colorless poison flowed out from his wound. When the poison was completely eliminated, the wound began to heal at a visible rate.
anwhile, by Madeline’s feet, a fishman soldier broke out from the ice, shooting out. It reached out a long tongue, but right when it was about to fire an ice thorn, Madeline’s five long and slender fingers appeared! With a gentle movent, its mouth was closed. The two rows of sharp teeth closed, and with crack crack sounds, it almost cut the perfectly straight tongue in half! anwhile, the ice thorn in its tongue already shattered.
Even though her actions neutralized a large portion of the fishman soldier’s strength, Madeline still didn’t feel satisfied. The long and slender fingers of her left hand gracefully danced about, striking down on the fishn soldier with an incomparably fast rhythm. Most of the strikes landed on its large head, hitting it like slaps to the face, while a small portion were on its shoulders and body. Under Madeline’s strikes, the fishman soldier’s body unexpectedly began to spin about, in the blink of an eye becoming a large size spinning top!
Only after the fishman soldier was slapped around for several seconds did Madeline withdraw her hand. The fishman soldier spat out a string of unknown speech, and then collapsed after swaying about. As soon as its body touched the ground surface, densely packed cracking sounds imdiately burst forth, caving in like a cloth sack. Turns out that the striking process shattered all of the bones in its body.
The four fishn soldiers that were swatted flying only now crawled to their feet. They threw themselves over once again while screaming. Only, when they reached around ten ters, their movents suddenly beca rigid and unusual, and a dark red color appeared on their skin. Ten ters was precisely the effective range of Cirvanas’ Fla Binding Realm and anti-gravity force field. As enemies, under Cirvanas’ control, the fishn soldiers experienced most of the the fla boundary’s damage. When an ordinary person stood in the Fla Binding Realm, they would only sense a bit of heat, while the fishn soldiers felt a temperature of over a hundred degrees, as if they had boiling water poured over them. They were used to the ice cold frozen sea, so the heat inflicted even more suffering. anwhile, under the anti-gravity force field, the fishn soldiers’ weight was imdiately lightened by around 30%, making them feel extrely out of sorts. Three of the four fishn leapt high into the air, turning themselves into the perfect targets, while the last one directly fell onto the ground. It tumbled a few tis on the ground, and then forcefully leapt up, flying high up into the air again!
Madeline’s surroundings was only a bit warr, the gravity only decreased around 10%, almost not affecting her at all. Such fine control over the force fields was sothing that should only be possible for those with seven or more levels of Elental Control ability, but Cirvanas obtained a similar result through his second level Elental Affinity. If one wasn’t vigilant, enemies fighting within Cirvanas’ range of control would have quite a bit of their combat strength seized from them.
