Chapter 361 Advantage Of Weapon Users
Chapter 361 Advantage Of Weapon Users
The crowd of people and the degu users stared wide-eyed at the monster and the five civilians that froze like a painting. Except for Chris, the six became completely still. What's more, the monster who jumped from the air didn't descend, and its wide open mouth and tongue had been paused, which look quite comical.
"What happened to them? Why did they suddenly stop moving?"
"Are you blind? Of course, that's Chris' power! See? He's still moving."
"Wow! So he can stop the time!?"
"No... more like he freezes the space itself. Did you forget that he can teleport and use space-related abilities? It's obvious that his ability is to control or manipulate space."
"Is that so? Then, it didn't change the fact that it is still awesome."
'Damn, why can't I move? Is this one of his ability applications?' Brick Norty can't feel his body. Thus, he can't exert any strength or stimulate his energy. Weirdly, his consciousness wasn't affected. He can still think just fine.
Lucian could see that the monster stopped moving along with the four people like him. He couldn't feel his body and control it. But he can see and think.
Chris walked in front of the monster and gave him a middle finger. "Fuck you. Did you think I'm stupid enough to come back without assurance? Although I can't attack while using Space Freeze. It didn't change the fact that I could place my sword to your next and cancel the ability. At that time, my attack had already severed your neck."
Then he took paused for a moment. And turned his back to the monster. He touched Lucian and the four civilians on their forehead one by one. "I won't waste my time talking. Using this ability takes a huge toll on my body. I just want to say that you won't be able to kill me with this ability. So don't waste your time hunting me. I can kill you with your resilience regeneration, but you can't also kill me. I don't know if there's a way to kill you, but it's not my business anymore."
The limitation of his Space Freeze is he can't attack. If he can, he would have already tried and found a way to kill the monster with trial and error. And unlike stopping time, it can't affect consciousness. That's why Lucian and the others can still think. While time stop, completely stops everything, whether it is the senses, thinking, matter, or movement.
As Chris finished his words. Lucian and the four civilians vanished along with him. Brick Norty fell to the ground as the space. His eyes became bloodshot in rage as he thought about how Chris mocked him face to face and give him a middle finger.
"I fucking swear! I will you one day!!" The dark mist came out of the monster's body and he punched the floor angrily.
BOOM!
The entire stadium shook. The ground shattered in an instant, causing a seven-meter-deep pit to form. A cloud of dust covered the entire area, then the monster roared at the sky.
"Space Freeze? I will find a way to counter that!"
The people and the degu users took a step back as the monster suddenly lost control. They had witnessed what happened so they could understand why it acted like that.
After a minute, Brick Norty stared at the degu users and the civilians. Then he instantly appeared beside three degu users and slit their throats simultaneously.
The three fell to the ground as they tried to gasp for air. But it was futile. The air pipe on them was severed and the air couldn't pass through it. The sense of doom and feeling their life passing away by second completely scared them. Gradually, the eyes of the three lost their brilliance.
They died with their eyes completely open. The number of degu users fell again. Brick Norty waved his arms which were dripping with blood. "I can't stop you from saving them? Then I'll just kill all of them before you can save them!"
"Guys, this is hopeless. In the end, we're going to die. But at least we have to buy time for the thousand people behind us!"
"Let's fight for the last second!"
The degu users had become used to the cruel killing of the monster that they didn't even bat an eye this time as they saw the three dying. They still felt sad and angry, but the fear had already diminished to the point that they could fight, even when they knew that they might be the next. And that they will have the same fate as others.
Most of the civilians were looking at a group of degu users that had protected them until now with complicated eyes. They still felt surreal how such powerful people readily sacrificed their lives for them. For such a thing, they could only feel respect and gratefulness.
"They are the real heroes." A granny with a brown hat which has a red ribbon on it muttered quietly. But enough for the people around her to hear. "It's not really their responsibility to save us from the monster. In fact, in my long life. People, when given power, would choose their own interest and their well-being first. But these guys here were given power, but they still chose to save us at the cost of their lives. They have a choice. It's worthy of praise."
Just like that, the remaining degu users surrounded the monster. On the front, five men with thick armor and a shield stood. Then there are also spear users and swordsmen around them.
In the last row, there are six women and eight men with bows and arrows. They act as the long-range of the group. This is the formation they had planned before the battle. This is also the reason why mastering a weapon was always better.
When one were drained or deprived of their degu energy, they become useless. Unless they are a martial artist. While weapon users could still put up a fight without their degu energy. Just like Fein, who can kill a degu user of the same rank as him without using his degu energy, only with his swordsmanship.
