Orion's archery, which he prided himself on, was not only predictable in Luo En's eyes but also full of flaws.
With his thoughts and perceptions exceptionally clear, Luo En shifted three inches to the right, retreated seven-tenths, and then flicked a central arrow with his left hand. The sudden force spun it off its trajectory, hitting weak points on two arrows on the left side, and buried it into the soil with a hair's breadth to spare.
At the sa ti, Luo En's right hand, which was free, drew the bronze longsword he carried, flicked his wrist, and the sword's tip danced up and down, effortlessly slashing through three arrows on the right.
What was once complex beca simple, and like that, Orion's killer move, which had never failed him during hunts, was easily defused.
But, that was enough!
Orion, who had initially retreated to a distance of ten steps from Luo En, had a deep blue glow flash over his legs, and unexpectedly accelerated forward, abruptly stepping into the dangerous zone that was only a step away from his opponent.
The hunter, wearing a cold sneer, swung his right fist wrapped in power, aiming straight for Luo En's montarily undefended abdon.
Compared to the tricky archery, he trusted his own physique more!
So, the retreat just now was only to regain control of the battle's rhythm.
Facing the fierce punch, Luo En's indifferent expression did not waver; he leaped slightly back, his right knee thrusting upward, hitting Orion's inner elbow with the hardest part of the knee, nearly dislocating the demigod's arm.
He still didn't dare to take the blow head-on, showing that strength was indeed this fellow's weakness.
If you defend too long, you will falter; then use speed to exploit the slow, forcing him to expose his weaknesses!
After one futile hit, Orion was far from discouraged. On the contrary, as if he had found his opponent's fatal flaw, his face lit up with delight, raising his speed and strength to the peak, unleashing a flurry of blows with the power to split mountains and break stones, each enveloped by the ocean's blessing.
Under this intense assault, Luo En dodged and weaved, like a small boat being battered in raging waves, seemingly on the verge of capsizing at any mont, yet always narrowly riding the stormy winds.
Soon, Orion's relentless attack lasting several breaths was gradually sapped of its edge by Luo En's evasion, light as a drifting tuft of cotton.
Even his rhythm of attacks was disrupted by the impatience growing in his heart, and his stamina could not keep up, as he began to breathe heavily and curse.
"Damn it, do you only know how to dodge?"
To Orion's surprise, in the face of this deliberate provocation, Luo En, who had been defensive and evasive, let out a sinister smile. His eyes, oozing a blood-red gleam, revealed a feral ferocity reminiscent of that of a lone wolf, and even his style and moves shifted, all becoming extrely sharp killing moves.
"Bang!"
Orion's expression changed as he stumbled back three steps. His right arm was almost smashed into his chest cavity by Luo En's brutal punch. The punch, with a force strange as a landslide and tsunami, nearly shattered his arm bones.
As the son of the God of the Sea retreated, Luo En pressed forward, and his right fist shot out swiftly.
Orion imdiately raised both arms vertically, ready to block repeatedly in front of his chest. However, he found this bizarre and unpredictable onslaught utterly indefensible.
What started as a fist turned into a palm upon eting resistance, slipping through guards, and once in close quarters, it transford into a claw for joint locks, or even a fingertip spike aid at vital organs like the heart and lungs. These shifts were random and patternless.
The attacks sotis involved intricate joint locks, other tis powerful blunt force shocks, occasionally mixed with the complex use of Hers Script and curses...
In an instant, targets such as the head, throat, heart, and groin beca focal points. Even as Orion chose to defend with all his might, he kept getting hit constantly and, in the end, managed to leap out of Luo En's close-range assault, covered in grievous wounds.
Three ribs broken, his nose bridge smashed by a punch, and three gashes between his eyebrows almost injured his cornea...
This guy was both cunning and ferocious, definitely more troubleso than any Magic Beast he had ever faced!
Orion internally cursed, fretting with anxiety. The pain coursing through his body forced him to consider his own recovery first.
Thus, the son of the God of the Sea, blessed by the ocean, imdiately headed toward a nearby stream, apparently attempting to use the water to heal his injuries.
However, thanks to Luo En's understanding of demigods associated with the sea, he had anticipated this move.
Want to heal yourself? Not so easy!
A fierce look flashed in Luo En's eyes as he advanced quickly, aiming to interrupt Orion's sprint toward the water source for healing.
Yet, the son of the God of the Sea's eyes flickered with slyness and coldness as well.
You've been had!
The mont Luo En stepped into the calculated range, Orion twisted his body with a sudden turn, his right leg gathering montum for a sweeping arc through the air.
Luo En's eyelids twitched as he arched his back and willingly fell backward, striking the ground with his right hand as he fell to use the rebound force to sorsault in the air.
However, as he descended, six sounds of arrows slicing air rang out, with six arrows shot from Orion's hand reaching instantly.
With no leverage in mid-air, the prey faced an arrow rain that sealed off all avenues of escape.
"Clang clang clang!"
Amidst a flurry of sparks and the clanging of tal, Luo En landed safely with the bronze longsword, which had been at his waist, now gripped in his right hand that had deflected all six arrows during their simultaneous arrival.
Faced with this unexpected response, Orion, who thought he had a guaranteed hit, stood dumbfounded and felt an icy shiver for the first ti, true fear seeping into his bones.
