Sheyan had seen the Arbitrator throw his spear several times before, and he had also repeatedly replayed the scenes through the real-time recording function of Cyborg No. 1. Therefore, he was able to grasp a fatal weakness of Arbitrator Bloodspear.
That was, the Arbitrator had a habit before throwing his spear. It was a habit that many people had – they could not help but take half a step back.
Although the Arbitrator did not have his heavy armour to restrain him, he would still do this habitual action! Sheyan was fully focused on the Arbitrator, and his Perceptive Sense finally had the upper hand, so he was able to jump back in advance.
The spear was originally aimed at the middle of Sheyan's chest, but because Sheyan had dodged in advance, he successfully blocked the edge of the spear, causing it to deviate a little. As a result, the spear missed its target and pierced through his shoulder!
Blood splattered everywhere. The scapula above Sheyan's right shoulder was pierced through by the spear. It was a bloody mess! This kind of injury was extremely serious for ordinary people. In Journey to the West, it was repeatedly mentioned that there was a very vicious punishment called "piercing the scapula", which referred to such an injury. It was almost as if the hand was crippled.
But for Sheyan's current strong Physique, this kind of injury looked very serious on the outside, but in fact, it had a limited effect on him. After the spear was thrown, Sheyan rolled a few times and cleverly hid behind a large rock. At this time, he noticed that Arbitrator Bloodspear had a limited number of spears with him. He was delighted. This was undoubtedly good news for Sheyan.
Spears were cool and flashy, but they could only be thrown after being retrieved. If Sheyan could use up all the spears the Arbitrator carried, then the Arbitrator's attacking methods would be very limited.
Therefore, although Sheyan screamed loudly after being hit by the spear, he hid behind the huge rock that was washed down by the flash flood and refused to come out.
If the Arbitrator still had his shoulder cannon with him, not to mention that it was a high-end product that could be installed on both shoulders, just one of the shoulder cannons alone would be enough to blast Sheyan away like a rat. Unfortunately, there were no "ifs" in this world ….
More importantly, if the Arbitrator could still put on a replacement heavy full-body battle armour and come looking for Sheyan, why would Sheyan waste his energy on the river bank? He would just dive into the river and go downstream. Unless the Arbitrator was so powerful that he could kill Sheyan in a few seconds, he could only sigh at his inadequacy.
When Sheyan arranged for himself to use the river as an escape route, Cyborg No. 1 questioned that it was too risky. On the one hand, they might be attacked by aquatic beasts, and on the other hand, why couldn't the Arbitrator go into the water to chase after them?
Sheyan told Cyborg No. 1 that the Predators probably could not swim, and that there should be very little water on their planet..
The reason was simple. According to the information they had on the Predators, their invisibility function was very easy to be broken by water. Invisibility was a very common and important combat ability. How could such a weakness appear out of nowhere? To put it bluntly, what if it rained during a critical mission? Wouldn't that mean they could only wait for death?
Such a fatal mistake was as unforgivable as a soldier's gun firing when it came into contact with water!
The technological level of the Predators was very high. It was impossible for them to ignore such a huge flaw. The only explanation was that there was very little water on the Predator's home planet, and there were no natural phenomena such as rain. Coupled with the high temperature environment they saw on the Predator's sub-ship, Sheyan's judgement was obvious.
Cyborg No. 1 originally thought that Sheyan's dismissal of the whole team was just a case of desperation, but now it seemed that Sheyan was very meticulous. He had made all the arrangements in an orderly manner and even thought of an escape route. How did it look like he was giving up on himself? Perhaps there was a deeper meaning behind his action of dismissing the team.
Sheyan was currently hiding behind a rock, looking like he would not come out even if he was beaten to death. Of course, Arbitrator Bloodspear would not give up his advantage and rush up to fight Sheyan. After all, Sheyan had already shown two abilities that made him feel a strong threat.
It could be said that Bloodspear had relied on his spear to forcefully rise from the lowest rank of Predator to his current position as an Arbiter! He had crawled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. How could such a person not have patience? He had no armour to protect him, but he still rushed forward, giving up his strength to fight the enemy with his weakness. That could only be described as stupid. There was no way he could have survived until now.
Therefore, the Arbitrator patiently waited for Sheyan to make a mistake, and the two sides fell into a stalemate.
But the Arbitrator's reaction just so happened to fall right into Sheyan's trap! Sheyan's' Pestilence Monarch 'ability was not ineffective against the Arbitrator, but it would take a lot of time to break through the Arbitrator's immune system and invade the relevant organs (for example, if the Arbitrator did not have lungs, he would invade the organs related to breathing). The reason why Sheyan chose this place with such a complicated terrain was to have a long battle with this guy. Of course, deep in his heart, he might have some other hidden intentions.
***
Time passed quickly. The Arbitrator had already thrown two more blood-red spears. Although the spears never missed, Sheyan could always avoid being hit in his vital points in advance. Although the damage of thousands of points was still very shocking, it was not fatal to Sheyan. Sheyan was still able to avoid being hit in his vital points.
More importantly, the Arbitrator was also very wary of Sheyan's attacks in such a complicated terrain! First of all, he had lost the protection of his armour, so his defence had plummeted. Both the 'Beast of Corrosion' and the 'Verdict' were terrifying to him, especially the 'Verdict's' AOE attack and stun effect. In a narrow alley-like terrain formed by two boulders, it was very difficult for the Arbitrator to dodge, no matter how great his speed advantage was.
This fear often caused the Arbitrator's attacks to be disjointed.
Sheyan was not like ordinary prey who would bleed and weaken after being injured. His strong self-healing ability coupled with some medicines could often heal thousands of points of damage in a timely manner, allowing him to recover hundreds of HP.
At this time, a very strange phenomenon occurred. Both sides in the battle had enough confidence in winning the final victory.
The Arbitrator relied on his strong advantage in speed and attack range to stand in an invincible position. Although the guy in front of him was difficult to deal with, as long as he was a human, he would reveal his flaws. The power of his spears was not to be underestimated. How much damage could the enemy take? How much blood could be spilled? Eventually, the enemy would fall.
At this time, Sheyan felt that the powerful enemy in front of him had fallen into his rhythm. If this continued, it would not be too difficult to win the final victory.
The sun had already sunk below the horizon. It was time for the creatures that liked to be active during the day to return to their nests, while the creatures that liked to be active at night were preparing to come out of their caves to hunt. Therefore, there was a relatively peaceful period in the natural environment. Therefore, some of the weaker creatures at the bottom of the food chain began to come here to drink water.
Of course, the Arbitrator could not kill as many animals as he wanted. He disappeared as if he had evaporated into thin air. Obviously, he had gone into hiding and was probably secretly monitoring Sheyan's movements. All he needed to do was to prevent Sheyan from escaping.
Most of the creatures that came here were herbivores, such as six-legged horses, giant marmots and the like. After they finished drinking water, they liked to go to the weathered cliffs below the canyon and kick some stone powder out of the ground with their hooves to replenish their mineral and salt intake.
A cold glint flashed in Sheyan's eyes. He pounced forward and grabbed a giant marmot nearly two meters long. He pushed it into the water and drowned it, then dragged it behind a rock for some unknown reason …. After a while, he threw it back into the water again, and it was soon washed away by the rushing river.
After these herbivores left, other creatures came to drink water one after another, but Sheyan had smeared some medicine on his body to conceal his aura and hid in the water, so he was not discovered.
When everything quieted down, although the sky was clear, a layer of grey had begun to cover it. The slender figure of the Arbitrator once again appeared high up in the sky. The blood-red spear on his back was still as sharp as ever. Suddenly, his body trembled, and he could not help but put his hand on his chest!
The Arbitrator's disease had finally acted up!
At this moment, Sheyan's eyes were brimming with tears. Finally, this moment had arrived, it wasn't easy!
Sheyan knew that the Arbitrator could be said to be an extremely dangerous and cunning creature. Once he sensed that something was wrong with his body, he would probably run away immediately and come back after everything was settled.
But how could Sheyan give him that chance? He immediately rushed forward for more than 20 meters and used the blink ability of the dark gold ring to teleport another 30 to 40 meters away in an instant. He locked the Arbitrator into the range of his' Hornrage 'and charged at him! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com.
