Chapter 817: Invincible Awakener

Although he suffered such an abrupt sneak attack, the vigilant Sheyan still managed to sweep out his ‘+7 West’ in retaliation, managing to slash the retracting liquified hand. The hand exploded into water droplets, but the next notification caused Sheyan to inhale a breath of chilling air.

[ Enemy ??? is immune to your attack! ]

“Hohoho, foolish piece, obediently accept your fate of death! How can a basic realm contestant contest an Awakener? Know this, you died by the hands of Devil King Drubal!”

A deep and wretched voice resonated out of nowhere.

Amidst the four directions of torrential rain, stretching towards the far ends of the hazy downpour; yet apart from Sheyan, none other was in sight.

The fallen Sheyan slowly climbed back up on the wooden raft.

His movements were firm but gradual. His muscles slowly contracting, chunk by chunk, as they supported his vigor.

He chose silence in response to his opponent’s provocation, wholeheartedly focused on sensing his enemy’s movement.

All of a sudden, that large liquified hand emerged behind him again. This time, the liquified hand congealed near his shoulder, and shockingly wielded an frost spike. The hand then plunged the spike down onto Sheyan’s body!

Sheyan hastily spun round, yet the frost spike was simply too swift. The outcome of him spinning round was a vicious frost weapon stabbing in his underbelly.

Sheyan’s facial muscle spasm from the pain but his action exhibited his fearlessness. He immediately hacked towards the liquified hand with his saber.

Sadly, a merciless notification greeted him again.

[ Enemy ??? is immune to your attack! ]

Facing such a disheartening notification, Sheyan’s bit his lips forcefully and swallowed blood back down his throat. He quickly arced his body down as his eyes flashed with a glint that resembled a famished wolf!

“Awakener?! What a freaking big shot eh? Come, bring it on!”

A short three minutes later, Sheyan’s body was riddled with wounds. He tottered around the raft as blood trickled down his body and formed a puddle of red beneath his feet.

To sustain till now, he had consumed an ‘Honorary Medicine Dosage’, and even activated his party skill ‘Gloryheal’.

Noteworthily, the opposing party actually attempted to disrupt Sheyan’s party skill. Yet the disruption failed where Sheyan even received a notification.

[ The enemy’s attempt to disrupt and suppress your party skill has failed ]

[ 15 party experience points will be deducted from enemy’s party, and transferred to your party ]

Despite that, such a tiny victory did little to conceal the despairing state of reality Sheyan’s was in.

This invisible foe was consistently dealing grave damages to Sheyan. In truth, his offensive might was exceedingly deadly. One could infer this from how he took down the half-elf storyline characters. To him, they were as good as dead from the start.

A liquified hand once again appeared with its frost spike. Although Sheyan strove to dodge, the opponent’s speed was seriously unrivalled. Dodging completely was out of the question, and he could only hope to retaliate after being stabbed.

Yet once again, Sheyan swept his saber forth after being stabbed. But this time, the notification wasn’t [ Enemy ??? is immune to your attack! ]. Instead, blood gushed out from the severed wrist of the liquified hand!

Moments later, the water fell onto the raft and back into the rapid currents.

“Ah it is like that.” Sheyan’s complexion was deathly pale from losing excessive blood. Blood stained his lips but a faint smile was displayed across his face.

“Your combat style is truly bizarre and weird. Such supreme damage yet capable of assaulting foes without a physical self. If this water elemental hand can attack unceasingly without repercussions to the main body, such an ability would be too perfect! What a pity, nothing is absolutely perfect in the realm. From the looks of it, I’ve won!”

As it turns out, Drubal possessed an incomparably indomitable defensive ability. ‘Aquafract’ was an ability that could be employed only once every hour. After activating it, one’s body will be covered with three layers of lightless defensive barrier.

After sustaining a certain amount of damage, the first layer of lightless barrier will shatter. The user will be immune to all attacks. In contrast, when receiving damage from a storyline character, the lightless barrier would absorb a large portion of damage rather than offering full immunity.

The lightless barrier would last for only half an hour.

Those were the notifications of attack immunity that Sheyan received.

Sheyan didn’t wait for Drubal’s response nor was he expecting one from his opponent. Instead, he leisurely issued.

“Most crucially, I pondered over this right from the start. Under such circumstances, you were actually able to chase me down from the shadows. Moreover, your abilities are related to water, hence from a logical standpoint, shoving me into the flood waters would undoubtedly enhance the killing potential of your liquified hands. Assassinating me discreetly in such an environment would remove the risk of my retaliation. After all, flipping over this wooden raft would be as easy as overturning your palm. Yet till now, five minutes have passed since our fight has commenced, why do you still battle with me on this raft willingly?”

As Sheyan spoke with blood streaming from his lips, he roared in laughter as he raised his long saber while hacking down ferociously against the wooden raft beneath.

“The only explanation is that you are unwilling to engage me in the water! Piecing in the fact that my virus seems to be utterly ineffective on you, I can roughly deduce that you are employing a special method to exist here!”

Moments later, a massive splash occurred as a ruined wooden raft submerged into the water.

At present, Sheyan’s location was already out of the scope of the torrential storm, that spanned several kilometers including the battle of the elves and Nazgul. His location merely experienced normal rain and the water flow was no longer that rapid.

Sheyan was a great swimmer and one could say there was little difference between him being on land or in water. Upon submerging, he immediately discovered, just roughly ten meters away from him, a crystal-clear body swaying in great contrast to the flowing muddy waters.

If one inspected closely, one would notice this crystal clear body had the shape of a human, with a head, hands and feet!

Indeed, this was the reason why Drubal was perfectly immune to Sheyan’s virus. The reason why he wasn’t willing to wreck the wooden raft.

Right now, his ‘Elemental Form’ was in play, making his body into an aquaform existence. Not only was he invulnerable to the viruses, he had a 33% chance of negating damages when suffering a physical attack. Moreover, his lightless barrier would only be triggered upon receiving an attack!

No wonder Sheyan required six to seven slashes to utterly destroy Drubal’s ‘Lightless Barrier’, and finally manage to deal some damage.

Nevertheless, Sheyan maintained a resolute calmness. If it was others, they would probably have been shaken by the unknown whereabouts of the enemy, and fall into despair from the enemy’s invulnerability. This would cause they to misjudge and fall into the hands of the mystifying Drubal.

“Ah truly, an Awakener…lives up to his name!”

Although Sheyan sounded pretty calm, great ripples were jolting through his heart.

Bear this in mind, from the commencement of battle, Sheyan had only inflicted real damage once. To figure out his opponent, Sheyan had paid a grievous price; seemingly dishing out most of his aces!

The most frightening thought was that the ‘Pestilence Monarch’ ability that Sheyan relied on the most, had been marginalized. The ‘Influenza’ and ‘Bronchitis’ viruses were totally negated by Drubal’s elemental body!!

At this moment, what could Sheyan do? What else was he left to do?

Without a doubt, Drubal was bent on maintaining his secret. For the sake of safety, he persisted in not wrecking Sheyan’s wooden raft. This was the same logic as a sniper not willing to reveal his location just for a simple attack. It didn’t mean that he wasn’t adept in water combat.

Truthfully speaking, one would have to be mentally lapsed to duel with a water elemental in the floodwaters. Just by noting how Drubal was able to tail the wooden raft and unleash repeated assaults at Sheyan, one could tell he wasn’t weak in a water fight.

Therefore, the first thing Sheyan did was to immediately swim for the shore. Fortunately, this river was merely a bit more than 20 meters wide.

Sheyan suffered another attack from Drubal after stepping onto shore. Nevertheless, the terrain assisted him greatly from here. He hastily jumped on different rocks, where the surprising skirmishes of the liquified elemental hands failed to land on him.

As Sheyan fled pathetically, Drubal continued to chase persistently beneath the mild drizzle. His aquaform body appeared to be strangely sliding across the road, looking just like a watery phantom.

In the midst of fleeing, Sheyan suffered two more attacks. Drubal’s attacking method was extremely simple. He first placed his right hand onto the ground, which dissolved completely into thin air. Following that, a liquified hand wielding a glacic spear would materialize out of nowhere, and strike at Sheyan from the side.
