RNP Chapter 329 The Prey
Chapter 329 The Prey
What Xu Si didn't expect was that Jiang Li would make a move right after him.
Several dark chains silently extended towards Tashan's body.
To be precise, it spread towards the eerie aspects of him.
Even Xu Si felt a chill from those chains.
This was also the first time Xu Si had seen Jiang Li participate in a direct battle.
She has always played a support role, protecting the entire team.
But now Jiang Li has completely changed her style.
Her authentic "prison sister" style sent chills down Xu Si's spine.
In an instant, most of the strange creatures were drawn in, leaving only two level 4 strange creatures remaining.
However, he was captured by two giants who rose from the torrent.
For Chen Pei, the home advantage here is even greater than something strange.
Xu Si even considered changing his opponent.
This level 5 eeriness might be more suitable for Chen Pei.
However, Crocodile Demon was clearly unwilling.
A huge sword tail, like a whip, lashed out at Xu Si in mid-air, carrying endless water swords.
Perhaps Xu Si poses a greater threat to it.
Xu Si no longer focused his attention elsewhere; this level 5 monster was enough for him to handle.
Unexpectedly, in just two days, he was about to face a level-five monster head-on for the second time.
The last time was with [Water Devourer], he used a trick in that battle.
That guy foolishly jumped out of the water, giving him the opportunity to use the [Time Badge] and Star Guide.
But this one is different.
It seemed a little too calm.
It was so calm, unlike something so eerie.
Xu Si could clearly feel that the eyes hidden beneath the gray-black scales were coldly assessing everything about him.
It's like two evenly matched opponents eagerly searching for each other's weaknesses.
Like a true master hunter, keeping a close eye on the prey's every move.
Xu Si was all too familiar with this feeling.
He used to play the role of hunter more often, but now he seems to have become the prey.
"boom--!"
While Xu Si was locked in a standoff with the Level 5 anomaly below, the battle below had completely boiled over.
Tashan transformed into a giant several meters tall, wielding six tentacles, and clashed head-on with a level four monster.
Stone chips mixed with blood, flesh, and scales flew everywhere, but his laughter grew even more manic: "Come on! Again!"
Sequence 3 is still somewhat insufficient to deal with level 4 weirdness.
……
Su Su's body shone with golden light, and with the support of her invincible body, she fought the strange creature with surprising skill.
Her speed is far beyond that of the Weird, but the damage her punches can cause is also very limited; if she doesn't use her special ability, she can't even break through a guard.
Lin Zhennan and Pei Xiu stood back to back, one parrying with a sword and the other sweeping with a single-headed crutch, while Hyuga Aoi moved nimbly at any moment. The three of them barely managed to keep the attention of the two level-four monsters occupied.
Their fighting style was much more cautious, calculating their escape route with every strike, but they were equally determined when they started the fight.
Jiang Li was surprisingly the most relaxed among them.
Several jet-black chains extended from behind her, weaving across the battlefield like living things.
At the end of the chain was a bizarre creature struggling and resisting violently.
But as they rolled, the chains tightened even more.
"Beautiful!" Xu Si wanted to shout out loud from outside the battlefield.
And an even more shocking scene was unfolding at the same time.
Chen Pei's figure had completely disappeared, replaced by two unparalleled water giants.
The two level-four monsters he had captured struggled wildly, each of their movements creating waves several meters high.
But Chen Pei always managed to easily resolve the situation.
However, these strange creatures also possess the characteristics of "water overlords," so many of Chen Pei's methods are not very effective against them.
……
"Red Hair!" Jiao Jiao seemed to have spotted something through the rain and roared to warn Xu Si.
With a loud bang, her head slammed hard against the bulletproof glass window, a gesture that served as an early New Year's greeting to everyone.
In the pouring rain, Xu Si finally moved.
But the one that moved even earlier than him was the [Crocodile Demon], which remained silent in the torrent.
The tail, resembling a giant cleaver, lashed out in the water, tearing through dozens of meters of surface with a force capable of splitting mountains.
Before the tail blade even arrived, the resulting wall of waves had already spread far and wide.
Xu Si did not take the hit head-on.
[The Sluggish Footprint] The First Leap.
His figure flickered in the rain, barely grazing the edge of the tail blade.
The sharp wind stung his cheeks, and his cloak seemed about to be torn to shreds.
But just as he leaped, the second wave of attacks from [Crocodile Demon] arrived.
It's not a tail.
It is water.
The entire flood seemed to come alive. Centered on the Crocodile Demon, the rainwater and floodwater within a radius of a hundred meters surged back simultaneously, transforming into countless fine water swords that shot towards Xu Si in a deluge.
Dominator of the waters.
In this vast ocean, every drop of water is its weapon.
"Starlight".
Xu Si let out a low shout, and the starlight around him surged, seemingly becoming the most reliable barrier.
Puff puff puff puff—
The water sword struck the starlight violently, exploding into clouds of white mist, each strike causing the starlight to tremble violently.
Xu Si could sense that the sequence energy was being consumed at a rate visible to the naked eye.
This can't go on.
He suddenly looked up, his star-like eyes piercing through the rain, locking onto the cold eyes of [Crocodile Demon].
There seemed to be no emotion in those eyes.
It was frighteningly calm.
Xu Si suddenly understood something.
This guy isn't afraid to go ashore.
It is waiting.
Wait for those level-four anomalies to hold back everyone in the convoy, wait for Xu Si to be isolated and helpless, and wait for a sure-fire opportunity to kill him.
Like a true apex predator.
Xu Si was also waiting, waiting for an opportunity to strike a fatal blow.
"Let's see who the prey is."
Xu Si's lips curled into a cold smile, but he had not yet revealed his attack methods.
Since the last time I fought against [Water Devourer].
He understood.
Most of his methods are ineffective against Level 5 Mysteries.
He was also waiting for [Crocodile Demon] to reveal a weakness.
【Crocodile Demon】His cold eyes remained fixed on him.
However, they never launched a third wave of attacks.
It is being evaluated.
Xu Si suddenly laughed.
This guy's "calmness" actually exposed his weakness.
A crimson ball of light condensed in Xu Si's hand. Level 5 monsters were not so easy to kill, but Level 4 monsters were a different story.
The Crocodile Demon thought Xu Si was about to attack it, so it submerged its entire body in the torrent and stood ready.
"Starburst Javelin"
However, the Starburst in Xu Si's hand was aimed at the strange creature that was firmly bound by Jiang Li.
That strange creature seemed to be caught in a bizarre struggle.
They could neither break free from the cage woven by Jiang Li's hinges, nor be punished by Jiang Li.
Clearly, Jiang Li has a significant deficiency in terms of finishing techniques.
Xu Si is precisely the one who can fill this gap.
