After luring the decaying undead into a cabin at the back of the ship, Sheyan casually tossed over the two corpses that were almost drained of blood. He then stood still, coldly gazing at this gigantic monster. This monster grabbed onto a corpse's head and leg, raising it high above its head. Then like twisting a towel, it twisted and twisted the corpse, opening its huge mouth to suck in the fresh blood. The sound of flesh being ripped apart was chilling to the bone, it was extremely horrifying and bloody.
But these two corpses were after all drained by Sheyan, the fresh blood had already coagulated, or had already been drained. The decaying undead continued twisting the two corpses, but it didn't obtain enough fresh blood. After tossing the corpses aside, it roared wildly, turning towards Sheyan who was opposite the cabin!
At this moment, Sheyan was holding onto a temporary giant tower shield, coldly glaring at the decaying undead.
The decaying undead took a step forward, lifting its giant axe, it spun around, making a motion similar to a sports athlete throwing a hammer ball! Instantly, a violent gust of wind resounded within this narrow cabin. That sensation was akin to a sail that had swallowed a gust of wind, as the gigantic axe whistled through the air and chopped down horizontally!
Sheyan sank into a horse stance, as he slammed the tower shield onto the deck of the ship. Then, he used his shoulder to block the shield! This tower shield was something he found amongst the cargo, although it was heavy, it was used to defend against cavalry charges, its thickness was close to 30 cm. Instantly, an exceedingly resounding and shocking knock resounded as the gigantic axe slammed into the tower shield. Even after being filtered and weakened by multiple layers of the ship's planks, the pirates who were transporting goods 20 metres away immediately turned deathly pale. They could only feel a buzzing in their ears, as though they had been punched in the chest, causing them to stagger back 7-8 steps!
Bearing the brunt of the impact, Sheyan was even more miserable, blood seeping out from the corner of his mouth, he staggered back a few steps, his ears buzzing in extreme pain! However, his HP had only dropped by less than 30 points. This was because he had already equipped the hidden title "Pirate Leader". After Strength and Vitality + 2, his Strength had reached 13 points, which was the same as this monster. Thus, it was able to offset a large portion of the damage. However, clear cracks had already appeared on the shield. It was clear that if it blocked another attack, it would most likely shatter into pieces. This was also the disadvantage of the weapons that were randomly found in the world. They were extremely easy to damage, which was their common flaw.
Of course, Sheyan was struck so hard, the recoil from the great axe was equally huge. If the decaying undead was a living person, both of its hands would be bleeding profusely, at least an inch long wound. But it was a monster that did not feel any pain. But because of Sheyan's attack, he was even more furious! With a wild roar, he began to spin his body again. Taking a step forward, he brandished his huge axe and chopped down! The might of this strike was even greater than the previous one. Sheyan raised his shield once again, and could clearly see several puddles of filthy black liquid splashing out from between its thumb and index finger!
Just as the axe and shield were about to collide, Sheyan's eyes suddenly blazed with a fanatical and insufferably arrogant look! At this moment, he actually released both of his hands, and directly laid down on the ground!
"Clang!" A deafening clang followed by an indescribable cracking sound. Facing such a heavy blow, the cracked shield instantly shattered into pieces, scattering in all directions. Instead, the deck of the ship behind Sheyan was forcefully cleaved apart by the great axe with a cracking sound! The shattered wooden planks flew in all directions, some were even swept up to 10 metres into the sea. Looking from afar, it really looked like a violent explosion had occurred within the merchant ship. The hull of the ship that was half a metre above the water surface had a 2 metre long crack. The originally gloomy and oppressive cabin was instantly filled with a fresh sea breeze. Even the indescribable stench of the decaying undead was blown away.
Sheyan groaned, using all his strength, he pulled out a sharp fragment of the shield from his thigh. Blood instantly gushed out. The battlefield was always full of unexpected factors. When the shield was shattered, a fragment of the shield pierced deep into his thigh. Not only did this attack deal 40 points of damage to him, it also caused him to bleed for 30 seconds. Smelling the fresh blood, the decaying undead became even more frenzied. Both of its hands gripped its axe, as if hitting a golf ball, it frantically chopped down!
At this critical moment, Sheyan pulled out his cutlass from his waist and blocked in front of him! The cutlass immediately bent into a 'U' shape, flying out of his hand. At the same time, Sheyan's left hand emitted a metallic lustre, as a savage looking cobalt steel exoskeleton appeared. It could be considered to have blocked this crazy sweep, but the cobalt steel exoskeleton was after all an offensive weapon and not a defensive one. Thus, the residual force still heavily injured Sheyan.
He was sent flying 5-6 metres away, spitting out a trail of blood in the air. When Sheyan crawled back up, he vomited out another mouthful of blood. Even his ears and nose were bleeding, like a small red snake slithering down his skin. The nightmare imprint mercilessly transmitted a notification:
"You received a sweeping attack from the decaying undead, receiving 97-25 points of damage, your actual damage is 72 points!"
"You are currently bleeding, losing 5 HP every 5 seconds, duration 30 seconds. Remaining time: 13 seconds "
"Your remaining HP is (45/180 points)!" (Sheyan had previously battled with the spanish marines, although he had rested, but facing the decaying undead, he was still unable to recover to his peak condition)
"Your HP is in danger, please quickly replenish your stamina or escape from danger."
Sheyan's eyes flickered with a dangerous glint, but his eyes were still brimming with confidence. If the decaying undead still had its intellect and intelligence, then it would definitely be on guard. But now that it had lost the control of a magus, it was merely a wild beast that followed its instincts and acted on instinct!
The decaying undead's thick arm muscles tightened once again, the strength it exerted was so great that the thick black threads sewn onto its body were clearly stretched out, the needle hole was pulled into an oval shape, from which a dark green liquid flowed out. It slightly tilted its body, and in the next second, it would take a step forward and sweep the gigantic axe away with all its might. But at this moment, Sheyan sprang up like a leopard, sprinting forward a few steps. Then his entire body leaned backwards, both legs in front and head behind like a soccer ball, he heavily kicked towards the right ankle of the decaying undead!
That pitch-black gigantic axe swept across 2 feet away from Sheyan's face, bringing with it a frenzied gust of wind that blew up Sheyan's hair. Following that, Sheyan could distinctly hear a muffled thud from where his feet landed, as though something hard and brittle had been dislocated. Following that, a gigantic figure pounced over from above Sheyan, stomping forward a few steps, it couldn't retract its leg! "Crash!" It crashed into the previously chopped hole, its momentum not diminishing, "Splash!" It fell into the sea!
3 times! Even though Sheyan had only crossed hands with this gigantic monster 3 times, it was the culmination of Sheyan's painstaking planning! Sheyan's first strike was not only to test the monster's destructive power, but also to assess whether he could withstand the second strike! Furthermore, he also had the intention of angering the monster. The second purpose of the attack was to lure the monster to actively destroy the cabin near the sea. The reason why he had to take the monster's attack was to numb it and give it the illusion that "the prey has nowhere to run". He wanted to lure it to have the mentality of wanting to kill it in one hit and use all his strength to launch the fiercest attack. Only then would it be thrown into the sea by the huge inertia of the attack that missed its target.
Apart from that, the reason why Sheyan dared to take such a risk was because he saw that the monster only had 4 points of agility and 3 points of perceptive sense. His agility had reached a full 8 points, exactly 2 times of the monster, and his perceptive sense was needless to say. If not, the monster only needed to react quickly, and slightly press down on its wrist, then Sheyan would definitely die on the spot!
Of course, more importantly, the voodoo shaman controlling the decaying undead had already escaped. The latter's endless terrifying witchcraft caused even Ammand to be somewhat wary of the decaying undead. After leaving the control of the shaman, the battle prowess of the decaying undead had dropped by at least 50%!
The decaying undead was obviously not so easy to deal with.
Sheyan's motive for such a setup, was obviously to target the gigantic axe that seemed to be connected to it. This monster that did not know fatigue and pain coupled with this terrifying gigantic weapon, its battle prowess could not be calculated using 1 + 1 = 2, it was at least a 4 x 4 calculation! As long as this gigantic axe was removed, this terrifying undead creature would be like a tiger without its fangs and claws, or a general without his bow and arrows. The remaining threat would not pose a threat.
Sheyan's plan was already very clear: The decaying undead's body was stitched together with a large amount of organs, and it was showing signs of rotting. Even if it could not swim, it would definitely not drown to death. Because rotting corpses were lighter than water, in the real world, after drowning, the corpses would float up to the surface of the water. But with that gigantic axe, it would definitely sink down.
Then there would only be two outcomes:
First, the decaying undead would rather sink than give up on the axe, then it would no longer pose a threat to him.
Second, the decaying undead would give up on the axe, float up to the surface and crawl back to settle the score with him. This was the scenario that Sheyan was most happy to see. Not only would it lose its weapon, its right leg would be chopped off. Even if it did not know pain, its movement speed would definitely be affected!
