Chapter 694
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
The two rhombus frost daggers drilled against Reef's shield in a flash, and dissolved into crystalline blue that encapsulated Reef and froze him into an ice sculpture . Reef groaned as he endured potent damages dealt by the twin frost daggers, where his health dwindled close to the danger zone . He too, couldn't help but activate their party skill – 'Gloryheal'!
Though the damage dealt by the frost daggers was astounding, the speed slowing effects were dispelled by Reef's scorching sun shield .
Following that, everyone finally realized that not only was Reef attempting to rescue Sheyan, he similarly traversed through the distance between Drizzt and him . Hence, he was now within the effective range to affect his enemy!
Instantaneously, Reef released a raging roar to the heavens – 'Shattering Cardiac Roar'!
A shockwave viciously swept all in all direction . In this instance, Drizzt's expression sank as he tried his best to leap backwards . Yet sadly, his movement speed had already substantially plunged down .
Even lifting his leg became excruciatingly tough for Drizzt . Fear crept into his eyes as he observed the murderous looking Sheyan, hauling along his blood dripping '+7 West' saber as he pressed in!
Suddenly, he howled furiously! The frosty mist lingering around his hands suddenly folded together, and froze into a massive ice ball, before ferociously smashing it onto the floor .
Such a conduct appeared rather foolish, but with Drizzt as the centre, a square area of several hundred metres transformed into a spongy snowland . The snowland was even churning around Drizzt .
Sheyan's single step instantly sank calf deep, as he received a notification of his movement speed immensely declining!
This was Drizzt's answer – If I can't speed up, then I can only slow you down!
This ability was pretty identical to Prince Stalo's one . However, Prince Stalo's halo ability was a complete body of impairing enemy's mobility and subsequently devastating them . Moreover, Drizzt could only create a snowland that could only impede one's movement speed . One could simply observe the disparity in might between the two .
Thus, though Drizzt's speed had crazily declined due to Reef's 'Shattering Cardiac Roar', Sheyan couldn't chase up to him as well .
Although there was only 4-5 metres between them, to Sheyan who lacked long range combat methods, those 4-5 metres was like an impassable moat!
Drizzt was an individual with plenty of combat experience as well . He immediately seized this golden opportunity . Calculating in his mind, he needed 1 . 5 seconds to release another rhombus frost dagger, while Sheyan similarly required around 1 . 5 seconds to enclose onto him . This meant that if he endured a single blade, he could deliver one last rhombus frost dagger!
Tanking another blade wouldn't be a problem, but for this mad dog chasing him, not only would he be impaled by the dagger, he would also turn frozen! Such an exchange of blows was naturally profitable .
On the contrary, Sheyan's lips curled up with callous ridicule .
"It has been 54 seconds since a symptom occurred . This will be the 59th second, and this time, the chances of a symptom flare is 97 . 11%! More crucially, it has been a total of five minutes since the first person sneezed . This signifies the second tier of virus, is about to flare up gloriously in your body!!"
"Cough cough cough cough cough!!!" A series of coughs successfully became the footnote of Sheyan's calculations .
Drizzt couldn't resist as he bent and began coughing violently . The sounds of his cough were exceedingly sharp, as though his lungs was being kneaded and ripped apart . As for the rhombus frost dagger he was about to release, it bluntly dispersed as mist . . . . .
Of course, Sheyan wouldn't remain courteous . He directly detoured around Drizzt before raising his '+7 West' saber, and ruthlessly chopped down .
Amidst coughs and bitter groans, Sheyan casually added a kick to Drizzt's buttocks; kicking him flying forward, where he coincidentally landed in front of Reef .
Without hesitation, Reef activated his boot's ability – 'Trampling Hooves' . Bam! Bam! Bam! Drizzt was viciously ravaged by stomps on the ground .
********************
. . . … . . 10 minutes later .
Dang! A completely distorted figure was flung out from a grocery shop . The figure landed onto the uneven door of a BMW730 series car . Blood splattered in all directions . One could observe that this figure was a Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter .
Yet right now, a terrifying concavity was laid bare on his chest . Evidently, his ribs had been utterly crushed .
Although he sustained such mortal wounds, this Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter felt no pain . He crawled along the ground with his distorted body and bloodshot eyes . Probably, the adrenaline dosage was still circulating through his body,
While crawling back into the shop, he finally exhausted his last sliver of vitality and perished after several convulsions . A puddle of shocking blood trail was left in his wake!
Sheyan sauntered out of the shop with large strides . His body was smeared with blood, some dried and some new . A glaring wound could be seen on his face, with curling flesh dangling around . It ran all the way done his right cheekbone, causing him to appear additionally horrifying . Nevertheless, his eyes remained deep and abstruse .
Sheyan casually grabbed a bottle of vodka from a nearby fallen shelf, before gulping down mouthfuls of it .
The sunset was now a mere reddish ember across the horizon, dragging out a long shadow from Sheyan's herculean build .
"Hmm?" Sheyan noticed a glow at the corner of his eyes . This glow was sharp and swift, like the sudden resurgence of sunlight . He covered his eyes as he groaned while stumbling a step back .
On Sheyan's right wrist, was shockingly impaled by a frosted flying knife . His flying knife not only penetrated through his 'Deformed Thickshell' gloves, it stabbed deep into his flesh . The knife blade and gloves were all soaked in dark reddish blood, before quickly freezing into ruby ice .
"Reef… . . . defeated eh? But, the strength he demonstrated was probably unprecedented eh . Moreover, Drizzt, don't you feel regretful that even though you struck him into near-death state, you can't finish him off correct?"
Sheyan's lips curled into a cold smirk . As the glow flashed in, the vigilant Sheyan nimbly rolled to the side . Although he knocked against a glass door and shattered everything, he managed to dodge the incoming thrust of the second flying knife . While rolling, Sheyan also pulled out the frost flying knife that was lodged in his wrist .
Like a phantom, Drizzt reappeared from a distant shrub . Then, he abruptly bent over, where a series of heart rendering cough overcame him; accompanied by tears and dripping mucus . One could even notice a trickle of blood at the corner of his lips .
This was indeed the only damaging property supplemented with Sheyan's virus abilities – 'Hemoptysis' – after every three flares up of 'Violent Coughing', the next fit of violent cough will induce a 150 blood loss damage spreaded over a 15 seconds duration .
Previously, when the virus outbreak flared out fully, Sheyan and Reef started pressuring Drizzt with the help of Sheyan's dreadful negative virus effects . They relentlessly pursued him, forcing Drizzt's four subordinates to reinforce him sacrificially . At times, they even employed their own bodies to block the enemy's assault .
Logically speaking, this was going to be an extremely long and bitter fight . Yet after Sheyan had dispatched Ben Johnson, two other Reserve-duty Growth-Hunters actually fled in panic!
Firstly, this was because they had been tormented to the brink of insanity by the pesky virus symptoms . Secondly, although they knew that fighting on still provided a possibility of winning, but, but! The price of winning meant they would inevitably be sacrificed as cannon fodder! !
What use would such a glorious triumph be to them? What more, Drizzt normally treated them harshly as well . . . . hence, the outcome was that only the last remaining loyal Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter persisted in this desperate fight .
When that happened, Drizzt mounted a crazed retaliation . Nevertheless, Reef continued persistently tying him down and resisting his assaults . The two were like wounded wild beasts clashing .
As they fought, Drizzt purposely dragged the battle further while harboring ill intent . To him, he believed that as long as he could slay Reef, his merits would be undeniable and well worth sacrificing his entire group . Sadly, Reef possessed 'Life-link' to preserve his life, thereby causing Drizzt's spirit to completely crumble!
All the way till now . Those two remaining frost flying knives were Drizzt's final offense, because his energy had long been drained from the pesky virus and the pesky Reef .
Thus, Sheyan finally trudged forward and announced .
"I'll permit you to die as you deem fit, you have 30 seconds to reply . "
However, Drizzt's only reply was to glare at Sheyan with reddened eyes before pouncing forward!
Sheyan grimly lifted his saber . He believed that if Drizzt had been the victor of this battle, he would absolutely not show mercy either!
***************
A minute and ten seconds later . More accurately speaking, after receiving news of Drizzt's demise . Trista, who was still duelling with Mogensha, wisely chose to depart .
Besides, the opponent before her was as slippery as a little rat . Though her battle powers were clearly amplified ten folds of his, this caused a huge disequilibrium in her other attributes as compared to Mogensha . Hence, neither could triumph over each other!
