Under the murderous sea, everyone should have been using all sorts of methods to reduce their HP. Even if they did not dye the seawater red, they should at least cause their blood to roll to the surface.
Battles in other places would be filled with raging waves, but the battle here was completely silent …
No, when the sword spirit's little slap landed on Francisco and the others' faces, there was still some sound despite the poor sound transmission in the water …
Not just Francisco, even the other B-class experts were confused. Legend had it that Howard, as the overseas leader of the Order of the Phoenix, had extremely fierce and fierce attacks. He had obtained the soul of a fire phoenix by chance and fused it with his body. The fire phoenix he summoned was not only strong but also had some intelligence.
However, there was one thing they did not understand. Where was the promised fire phoenix? Ah?
They felt that even facing the Fire Phoenix would be better than facing this strange little sword spirit. Slapping them in the face was too humiliating!
Slapping someone in the face was considered a rather insulting action in most countries in the world. Francisco, a person who was second only to one person in the Faith Theory Department, had been slapped in the face for no apparent reason. Furthermore, his entire body was being whipped around like a spinning top in the sea. He was simply infuriated!
But … if you can slap people, why don't you control him to kill people?
At first, Francisco thought that Lü Shu was deliberately humiliating them, even though Lü Shu was also trembling like them …
However, Francisco truly felt that Lü Shu wanted to humiliate them first before killing them. After all, this little sword spirit was the only existence that could move freely. Moreover, his strength was so great … it would be easy for him to kill them.
Under normal circumstances, this sword spirit's strength would indeed give them a headache. However, it was unlikely that he would be a threat to their lives.
Of course, they did not know how Takashima Hirazu had died. Otherwise, they would not have thought this way. If they knew that Takashima Hirazu had died in the hands of this person, they would probably have been more cautious in their plans.
In this world, there would always be someone better than you. Lü Shu had always believed that hiding some secrets would allow him to gain an unexpected advantage in certain battles.
Lü Shu was not invincible, so it was necessary for him to hide his strength.
Lü Shu also felt that the Sword Spirit's position was very awkward. He had a feeling that he was neither good nor good, because the Sword Spirit's strength was always one level lower than his. In a life-and-death battle of the same level, the Sword Spirit could only win by surprise. However, Lü Shu was also thinking about a problem. What would happen if he managed to gather all seven Sword Spirits one day?
Even if there were only seven C-class Awakened ones, they would still be able to contend with B-class Awakened ones for a while. They might even have a chance of winning.
Anyway, there was no harm in having more skills. Lü Shu was like a sponge, crazily absorbing all the chips that were beneficial to him. As a matter of fact, with one spin of the little sword spirit fan, he had five Sea of Qi Fruits …
After the little sword spirit giggled and slapped him once, Francesco and company thought that Lü Shu was going to kill them after humiliating them. They felt nervous.
Unexpectedly, the plot did not go according to their expectations. That little sword spirit actually giggled and … slapped them again …
The five of them, who had just stopped, started spinning again. Francisco almost went crazy. Are you going to f * cking stop? Ah?!
Are you done yet?
I'm telling you, you have to adapt … Pa!
Damn you!
Even a B-class expert who had been slapped so many times that his mind was still somewhat muddled. This was because the little sword spirit's palm strength was too great, causing his head to hurt.
Lü Shu stared dumbfoundedly at the little sword spirit who was having so much fun. He could even feel Francesco's rage. However, he was also in despair. What else could he do …
There was really nothing he could say now. Otherwise, Lü Shu would really have to explain to Francesco, "Brother, I also want to give you a quick one, but I can't do that!" This … this slap had already made Lü Shu feel somewhat embarrassed!
However, for Francesco and company, the most important thing was that, due to being slapped, the breath that they had been holding all this while had already leaked out. They would not be able to stay underwater for much longer!
Oxygen was the source of energy for humans. A human's brain would rapidly die after a few minutes of hypoxia. Awakened ones might be able to hold on for longer, but there was a limit to how long they could last.
At that moment, everyone felt their senses slowly returning. This time, Francesco and company no longer had any thoughts of probing Lü Shu or killing Lü Shu. It was not that they did not want to kill him, but they could not allow any more accidents to happen.
This Howard's attacks were too illogical. It was truly impossible to guard against him!
When the Faith Theory Department was expanding their influence in Europe, as the vanguard, Francesco was one of the most experienced members. However, this was the first time Francesco had encountered someone who, despite knowing that his opponent was a fire-type, would use a lightning-type skill to electrocute himself. Then, in the end, he even released a strange monster to slap his face.
Moreover, Francesco was the one who had the most meticulous observation. While the others were doing their best to escape to the shore, Francesco still had the energy to turn around and observe Lü Shu's situation. To his surprise, he discovered that Lü Shu had also begun to regain his senses. However, the oxygen underwater did not seem to be causing any pressure on him.
This feeling of numbness came and went quickly. When Francesco realized that he could already use his ability, he instantly urged his white robes to bring him to the surface of the sea.
Along the way, Francesco even had the energy to pull the other two B-class experts along with him!
However, the other two B-class experts were not so lucky. The moment Lü Shu realized that he could use his water-type ability, the seawater began to flow downward like a waterfall.
This might not be visible from the surface of the sea, but the two B-class experts could sense it clearly. Although they were still feeling a little numb, this did not stop them from swimming upward.
Francesco relied on his white robes to avoid the undercurrent. However, the two B-class experts discovered that they were getting further and further away from the surface of the sea!
When they turned around to look at the bottom of the sea in fear, they discovered that Lü Shu was calmly looking at them. The undercurrent around him was wrapped up in strange lines, making him appear like a god of the sea.
One of the B-class experts was horrified. He could not understand how the person they had been chasing all this while had suddenly become the main character in a hunting game, while they themselves had become the prey of the sea.
He could no longer care about anything else. Suddenly, he took out a small yellow copper shield from his spatial ring. After the copper shield shattered inch by inch, it transformed into a protective shield around him to resist the impact of the water current. Making use of this opportunity, he desperately tried to escape upward. His companions wanted to reach out to him, but they were blocked by the shield as well.
Only one B-class expert was left underwater. He made up his mind and abruptly shot out countless metal weapons at Lü Shu. In a single volley, he had thrown out all the metal items he had on him. However, he saw that Lü Shu was as agile as a fish at the bottom of the sea, easily dodging all the attacks.
The metal weapons plunged into the sand at the bottom of the sea, but Lü Shu remained unscathed.
This was Lü Shu's home ground!
After enduring for so long and being electrocuted for over ten minutes, even Lü Shu had reached the end of his patience.
As the seawater poured down, the B-class swordsman tried his best to pull out the metal weapons from the bottom of the sea while resisting the discomfort caused by the lack of oxygen. He chased after Lü Shu like a school of fish in the sea. However, in the next moment, he suddenly found that the speed of the metal weapons had slowed down, as if they had encountered a great resistance.
There seemed to be a castle made of seawater protecting Lü Shu at the bottom of the sea, cushioning the impact of the metal weapons.
Dead Dog and Hidden Arrow dashed out with a loud bang. The two flying swords came to the B-class swordsman's side without any resistance and reaped his life. This swordsman couldn't figure out why the five of them failed to kill a single person, and why he died in the boundless seawater that was gradually darkening.
The seawater was as dreadful as an abyss.
Before his death, the B-class swordsman realized that his opponent was an Awakened swordsman of the water system and hadn't set up any ambush. He had been the most lethal weapon in the sea from the very beginning.
