Chapter 684: Heartbreaking sneeze…...

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

For a reserve-duty Growth-Hunter like Kaoyi, a single velociraptor wouldn’t put his life in imminent peril. Nevertheless, it would still be an arduous and agonizing struggle, which could cost him precious items or medicines. Furthermore, Joseph should naturally be the one tanking the front instead.

After Kaoyi executed his backward roll, Joseph behind immediately frowned and scoffed.

"What’re you doing? A grand superhuman contestant, even a reserve-duty Growth-Hunter at that, can’t even hold back a single sneeze?"

Kaoyi widened his mouth in an attempt to refute, yet he ultimately couldn’t find the words. Furthermore, since they hadn’t completed their mission yet, and Joseph was truly a relatively cheaper mercenary, Kaoyi could only endure and remain silent.

Then, Joseph scolded again.

"If your inadequacies cost me losses this time!.....*cough cough, cough cough*…..then I’ll make you compensate me. Fudge, why is my throat so itchy?"

As he spoke, Joseph vigilantly advanced deeper into the nightclub. If there wasn’t a velociraptor here, then naturally nothing much needed to be said. But if there was and it had been startled by the sneeze, there would no longer be a need to sneak around.

Not long later, Joseph marched back out. The nightclub patronizing velociraptor had probably eaten its full and left long ago. Still, his belly was a pit of fire.

Upon nearing the exit of the nightclub, both Joseph’s and Kaoyi’s pupils abruptly contracted!

This was because at the exit, an unexpected man had surfaced unknowingly!

This man was currently standing peacefully, and was releasing a sensation that of a tidal withstanding reef. Not even winds nor waves overflowing to the sky could falter his upright stance! Anyone who dared to trespass, would inevitably be smashing their head against a solid reef, and blood would flow with immeasurable woe.

Joseph tightened his grip around his sword shaft and slowly inquired.

"Who might you be?"

While issuing that, the nightmare imprint on his forehead radiated with evident threatening intent; analogous to different countries carrying out nuclear tests whenever diplomatic tensions soared as a sign of threat.

Indeed, Joseph had realized that right at the chest of this man ahead, was the exact dazzling radiance!

"Fudge....!"

Joseph angrily fumed. Burying his body forward, he speared towards Reef like a rugby athlete.

Clink! Concurrently, 7-8 conical spikes drilled out from his metallic shoulder pad, as he aimed it ruthlessly towards Reef.

If knocked flying by him, apart from merely receiving damages and falling, one’s defence would simultaneously plunge by 33%.

A defence impairing property complemented by the agility type contestant Kaoyi, who possesses rapid attack speed but weaker power, could be said to be an excellent compatibility with each other.

To Joseph’s horror, when he was 5-6 metres away from impacting Reef, he shockingly discovered that the male ahead had pulled out an incredibly queer yet enormous shield.

This shield was emanating a dark-golden glaring brilliance, seemingly like the dazzling rays of the midday sun itself!

A heavy shield!

Dark-Gold grade!

Joseph finally collided against the heavy shield. Instantaneously, he could hear the irascible scraping sounds of the spikes on his shoulder pad against the shield. In this precise instance, he lost all his colliding impetus like he had completely banged against an impregnably tough city wall; failing to even sway his foe by a single fraction!

Instead, two long paths of footprints were etched into the cemented ground as dust fumigated throughout the place. He had merely managed to push his opponent 5-6 metres away! In contrast, the recoiling impact he received was so remarkable, it seemingly caused his whole body to turn numb!

"You’re an MT???! Fudge this, could it be you’re that Zeus?" Joseph gritted his teeth and exclaimed.

Instead, Kaoyi immediately called out.

"Not possible. Zeus has already reached such a terrifying realm, he definitely isn’t that weak and absolutely wouldn’t appear alone!!!"

In the midst of their exclamation, Joseph had already unsheathed his longsword and furiously chopped across. Simultaneously, Kaoyi detoured swiftly behind Reef’s unguarded back and unleashed a quick attack.

Yet why would Reef give them a chance? With an enraged roar towards the sky, a formless ripple swept out; sending all surrounding dest or sediments rolling away like a twelve grade hurricane.

Upon being struck by Reef’s ‘Shattering Cardiac Roar’, their speed instantly fell.

Seizing this moment where his enemies were distracted, Reef lunged fiercely towards Kaoyi with a raising foot!

Abruptly observed on Reef’s foot, was the illusion of a giant horse hoof. The giant horse hoof very bluntly stomped Kaoyi to the ground, which followed by consecutively vicious tramples! Indeed, this was the ability of his ‘Siege Hooves’ boots – ‘Trampling Hooves’!

(TL: Reef acquired the boots in ch 15 of volume 9)

Kaoyi was trampled into a disastrously wretched state, as his face oozed with fresh blood. After enduring the rampaging hooves and just when he was about to scramble away, Reef unleashed a hefty slap across.

Nevertheless, Kaoyi managed to miserably dodge away from Reef’s direct slap. To his horror, Reef’s slap was merely a feign; his true objective was an english flying dart that jetted out from his palm, before accurately penetrating Kaoyi’s chest.

Indeed, this was Reef’s lethal hand-dart, one that could restore his health while ravaging his opponent!

Meanwhile, Joseph wasn’t simply idling. After wrestling away the slowness from Reef’s ‘Shattering Cardiac Roar’, he ferociously speared over with his sword swiping for Reef’s body.

His sword instantly drew blood from Reef’s arm. As a Growth-Hunter, Joseph was absolutely not a weakling. Seizing this golden opportunity, his hands emitted a soft white glow. Then, he slapped his hands onto Reef’s dark-gold grade shield; as though drenched with sticky glue, his hands adhered tightly onto the periphery of the shield.

Instantly, the white glow permeated throughout Reef’s dark-gold grade shield and mystifyingly seeped inwards!

In a flash, the dark-gold shield turned noticeably translucent as though it was being transferred into another dimension! What remained soon, was its simple outline!

This was precisely Joseph’s party ability named ‘Primal-Lock’. During battle, this ability wouldn’t deal another direct damage to opponents, but could transfer the enemy’s equipment into another dimension for a short period of time; making it invalid.

At present, his ‘Primal-Lock’ ability had already reached level 9, hence, even a dark-gold grade equipment couldn’t resist the formidable might of this ability. Just think about the consequence if Professor Dumbledore’s wizard wand was suddenly locked into another dimension. One could imagine how potentially terrifying this ‘Primal-Lock’ ability could be.

Raising his arm, Joseph pounced forth with a raging snarl. In his heart, he believed that after getting rid of Reef’s shield, Reef would degrade into a toothless tiger and be trampled over easily!

Concurrently, Kaoyi also seized this chance and flashed towards Reef’s side, before executing the exact chain of deadly fury swipes he did against the velociraptor previously.

Streaks of agonizing blade rays carved out blood from Reef’s body incessantly.

In spite of these, Reef was a veteran of a hundred wars, and faced such dreadful scenarios countless times already. He remained unflustered in the face of these assaults, as his legs bent slightly while he guarded his front with both arms; allowing Kaoyi’s dagger to freely lacerate out wounds throughout his body!

Droplets of blood splattered onto Reef’s face, which only served to double his menacing and composed countenance!

All of a sudden, Kaoyi slashed from top down, as his dagger formed a radiating crescent arc that hooked upwards. This technique was solely based on the difference between their agility, and thus managed to send Reef, in his defensive stance, flying upwards. It appeared as though Reef had been hooked by a indomitably matchless hook that dragged him into a passive backflip into the sky, instantly leaving his gaps wide opened.

Once again, Kaoyi displayed his faint squatting action, where following this, several square metres of ground beneath depressed in under the accumulating pressure of his feet. Boom! A regiment of dust emerged as Kaoyi unleashed the accumulated energy! Then in midair, he planned to maliciously release an incomparably defying criss-crossing foot slash towards Reef.

Though the enemy was an MT, taking such a strike without the defence of his shield, would similarly shave off a good amount of his health. But at this very moment, an indescribably strange sensation overwhelmed Kaoyi, before condensing within his nose.

"What the hell, why do I feel like sneezing at this moment?"

"I must endure, I’m in the midst of killing someone!"

"I must definitely endure!"

"I must endure!"

"I en…."

"I...."

"Ahh~~~~~AhhAhh~~~Atchoo!!"

Still, Kaoyi managed to release his foot slash, as a raging wind gusted out. Instead, its only outcome was in hatefully carving out a 2-3 metres crack along the nearby cemented wall. One could fathom the heartbreak this very sneeze had caused.

After being hooked up into the air, Reef then quietly descended after a backflip. Following that, he slashed out with his lightsaber and sent Kaoyi staggering backwards. Then, Reef charged forward and released another stomp.

Joseph was right about to dive forward to stall Reef. Never would he expect, at this very instance, his body felt like it was immersed in an icehouse and an uncontrollable shiver erupted.

With his movement speed already hampered by the effects of Reef’s ‘Shattering Cardiac Roar’, his movement speed greatly plunged further after shivering.

While Reef was stomping forth, Joseph held full confidence that he could disrupt him. Yet because of that weird shiver, he could only witness as Reef’s brutal stomp came slamming onto Kaoyi’s face!

Not only was his stomp painful physically, it also inflicted damage to his pride....
