If it was merely Travice's stab to his lungs, that would be fine. Yet strangely, after suffering such heavy injuries, Sheyan's vitality was rapidly absorbed by Travice. This fresh and exuberant vitality was rapidly converted by Travice's fleshy body, as it rapidly congregated at the spine of this freak. Instantly, tendons and flesh grew out at a speed visible to the naked eye, as they tenaciously encircled the advancing saber blade. This caused the resistance of Sheyan's' + 7 West 'saber to greatly increase.
Just as the battle was progressing to an extremely disadvantageous state, Sheyan's relentless assault finally triggered a passive ability. That was the special effect of his' Deformed Thick Scale 'glove –' Tidal Shock '!
When engaging in close combat against an enemy, there is a fixed probability of absorbing moisture from the surrounding environment to assault the enemy. Depending on the environment, damage will be dealt (50-130). Simultaneously, a bubble will form around the enemy's body. Before the bubble bursts, the encircled enemy will be suffocated and suffer an abnormal state of 80% movement speed reduction. The HP of the bubble equals the damage of the 'Tidal Shock'!!!
After the special effect was triggered, the air abruptly reverberated with the distinct roar of the sea, as though the waves were gently crashing against the beach.
The surrounding moisture was rapidly absorbed to Sheyan's left hand, as it instantly transformed into an incomparably ferocious' Tidal Shock '. Swoosh! It sent Travice's body flying, as a massive bubble formed around his body, trapping him within.
Travice's reaction was rather bizarre, as though he had suffered a grievous injury. He released a long mournful shriek, as though his body had been corroded by sulfuric acid. Not only were large amounts of pungent greyish black fumes seeping out, numerous holes had formed on his body. It was as though the 'Tidal Shock' had inflicted an unimaginable damage to him.
Panting heavily, Sheyan escaped death by the skin of his teeth. After rolling backwards, he used his long saber to support himself, as he forcefully clutched his wound. At present, his heart was filled with bewilderment, yet he rejoiced. For a moment, he didn't know what had happened.
Yet when he glanced at the bubble enveloping Travice, a faint violet glow was faintly sparkling under the sunlight! Sheyan instantly understood. As it turns out, the essence of the 'Tidal Shock' was to absorb moisture from the surrounding environment to inflict damage to the enemy. Hence, the damage would fluctuate according to the environment. Naturally, the desert environment was the weakest. Although the environment here was humid and scorching hot, the true source of water was that faint violet liquid within the canal beside the 'Stairway of the Sun' flowerbed.
When Travice's parasitic creature came in contact with that liquid, it was instantly corroded! It could be seen that the miraculous liquid had a rather astonishing suppressive effect on Travice. Although the damage of Tidal Impact wasn't worth mentioning, the liquid it attracted was an exceedingly vicious poison, which naturally dealt tremendous damage to Travice.
After a series of frenzied scratches, Travice finally broke through the bubble surrounding him. However, he was now in an exceedingly miserable state. Even his head had been tainted by the purplish liquid, corroding several holes in it. The largest hole had even corroded away a palm sized chunk of his skull.
One could distinctly observe the texture of Travice's brain inside his skull. The creases of that deathly white brain were constantly changing, and were even squirming in a nauseating manner. It was as though it contained a myriad of fat white maggots.
Both parties in the battle had sustained considerable damage, and appeared to be unable to continue fighting for the time being.
Nevertheless, Sheyan had fought his way through, relying on his viciousness of 'when enemies meet on a narrow path, the courageous will emerge victorious!'
Clutching the wound on his chest, he stood up shakily, as an incomparably savage glint flickered in his eyes. Raising his' + 7 West ', he charged ferociously towards the monster before him, before viciously chopping down on Travice's neck once more! At the same time, Travice's fist landed on his chest, causing half of his left chest to cave in!
Without any suspense, Sheyan's saber cleaved Travice's head into the air. Yet strangely, beneath his head, numerous tapeworm-like blood vessels could be seen intertwining together, densely wrapping around his spine and connecting to his body. Those blood vessels were still wriggling and wriggling, exhibiting a greenish black and purplish black luster. It was truly nauseating. Moreover, it appeared as though Travice's head was about to be pulled back.
Although he had sustained heavy injuries, Sheyan had completely sealed off his soul and senses. All negative emotions that were detrimental to his combat prowess had been forcibly suppressed. What remained was callousness, bloodthirstiness, and unruliness. Within his pair of dreadful crimson eyes, was a ruthlessness and viciousness stimulated by the agony!
"Go to hell, you monster that has lived long enough!"
Sheyan heavily stomped down on Travice's head. One could clearly feel Travice's decaying skull shattering like a thin walnut shell. Following that, Sheyan exerted strength with his foot, and felt as though Travice's head was trampled on like a piece of tofu, before being crushed.
Sheyan casually swung his saber, and instantly severed several blood vessels connected to Travice's neck. Travice instantly sensed the threat of death, as he frantically struggled, releasing mournful howls from his chest. Unexpectedly, Travice's right leg unexpectedly kicked out in a bizarre reverse direction, as the tremendous force caused Sheyan to stagger backwards. Most likely, several bones had been fractured from the kick, as he vomited out a mouthful of blood. This time, it contained fragments of dark-red internal organs!!
Sheyan's body swayed slightly, as he glanced back at the Sun Altar. The enraged 'Stairway of the Sun' was still fluttering like an enraged wild beast. Evidently, it wasn't realistic to directly retrieve that unknown liquid to deal with Travice. Sheyan could only stagger backwards, as he attempted to lure the trapped Travice over to a desperate fight.
At present, Travice's condition wasn't any better than Sheyan's. His skull was practically crushed, and at least half of the blood vessels on his neck had been severed by Sheyan, as they constantly squirted out a viscous mixture of lymph and blood. His head was crooked in a bizarre manner, as his body twitched violently.
Travice suddenly released a mournful shriek, as he widened his mouth to its limit. Once again, those disgusting parasitic lifeforms were spat out from his mouth. Apart from the parasitic tapeworms that Sheyan had seen before, there were also fat and gigantic maggots. A parasitic beast with a body resembling a dog, yet its head was strangely divided into four petals. A gigantic hookworm with hooks …... if these parasitic lifeforms were to come into contact with Sheyan, Sheyan would probably be reduced into a puddle of blood in an instant. No, not even blood would be left behind, only a few teeth would be left behind!
Instead, Sheyan noticed that while Travice was spitting out those parasitic lifeforms, his body was rapidly crumbling and dissolving. Those parasitic lifeforms that were spat out were now greyish black in color. Although they were constantly closing in on Sheyan, they had lost their strange nimbleness, and were now as rigid as machines.
After Travice's body had thoroughly dissolved, those parasitic lifeforms were thoroughly frozen in place, as though they were black volcanic rock sculptures. Then, they disintegrated into dust and melted into the ground.
Observing all this coldly, Sheyan finally understood the sequence of events. In the end, Travice was still a wild beast dominated by lust, and would never regain human rationality. After receiving Sheyan's heavy blow, his brain had already been destroyed. Sensing a threat to his life, the primitive parasitic nerve nodes had activated their final defense mechanism, and exerted all their might to incite the parasitic lifeforms in his body to launch an assault.
Nevertheless, the activation of those parasitic lifeforms required the energy of life. After being imprisoned for hundreds of years, no matter how much Travice was in a hibernating state, the energy reserves in his body would inevitably plummet to the lowest point. Under such circumstances, if he still unleashed his ultimate move to summon out all the parasitic lifeforms in his body, the outcome would be simple – his body wouldn't be able to withstand and would utterly crumble …...
At present, Sheyan understood another matter. Up till now, he could confirm that the various mutated lifeforms of the Kijuju Marshland were definitely related to the 'Stairway of the Sun'. However, at present, Sheyan discovered that the mutated lifeforms he had encountered were divided into two distinct categories. The first category was the mutated lifeforms, the most typical being the Licker. The second category was the mutated lifeforms that were completely controlled by parasites – the Plaga Host!
More crucially, Sheyan noticed that almost all the Plaga Hosts he encountered were foreigners from Europe! Then, he linked it to Diaz's last words – 'A pity, a pity …... us foreigners are different from those natives. Within our bodies, they share the same strength!!'. At present, another riddle in Sheyan's heart was resolved.
What was the difference between Europeans and the Ndipaya natives? Moreover, this difference was clearly pointed out – it originated from the 'body'! African blacks had denser muscles than European whites. African blacks had valiant physiques. African blacks weren't adept at swimming …... these were all facets that Sheyan had considered before, but were overturned one by one!
