Chapter 267: The Sword of the Waves (7/10)

"Tenglan giant eel chasing sharks?"

After seeing this, Ian immediately turned his head and locked his eyes on Patrick.

Without any hesitation, the young man was holding his sword in both hands at the moment.

For four years, he never slackened his practice, nor did he forget the battles of the past, constantly reading his past memories through the silver chip, and the boy fought every night against all the enemies he faced back then.

And the most powerful of them is the Flowing Sound Knight Weggs, a knight who truly stands at the peak of the second energy level, and is evaluated by Hilliard as a 'genius' who 'can easily enter the fourth energy level if he hadn't wasted so many years'.

Although it is said that he fought thousands of swords with Teacher Hilliard, and was seriously injured in the end, it was only by fighting to the death that he injured the old man.

But being able to fight against Hilliard at the same level a thousand times is essentially the highest affirmation of his talent.

Ian had also fought with him, and if it weren't for the weakness of the opponent's strength and the accumulation of injuries that made him nearing death, even if the boy entered the state of the Prophet's Sword, he might not be able to face him and Weggers head-on.

But that was back then.

Today, Ian is not arrogant enough to think that he can fight against the second-level peak of Weiggus, who can hold a sword against armor and even aether armament with his sword skills alone, but he has at least learned the strongest sword moves of the enemy.

The 'percussion' of the enamel scorpion spider.

The white-haired boy solemnly raised the heavy abyss iron sword in his hand, and the pitch-black and solid sword body lit up with light gold and blue essentia brilliance, and an indestructible mountain-like and sea-like undulating aura spread out in all directions like ripples around his body, making Ian feel as if he was incarnated in an ancient reef that stood still in the tsunami.

The Sand Armor Apprentice does not have the power to control the center of gravity freely, so he can only firmly root himself in the earth, but the Wave Singer has, and the Fairy Wings have it, and it is like controlling the flow of water, and the power of the earth is poured towards the enemy.

There is no need to think, the sword skills that have been practiced countless times have been performed like water, and Ian snorted softly.

Then swing the sword.

The muscles, the flowing water, and the power of the earth beneath his feet exploded in unison, and the long sword in his hand tore through the air with a piercing roar, and all this happened in an instant, and the blonde nobleman who was still amazed by the appearance of the giant eel had just turned his head.

The surprise on Patrick's face wasn't over at that moment, he raised his sword, the Mithril longsword and his eyes lit up with bright lightning, and the electricity visible to the naked eye crackled in his muscles and air, converging pure destructive power.

But destructive power is not a sign of power.

If it were cut from the perspective of a bystander, Ian would have held the sword in both hands, and then took a step forward, smoothly slashing a blow that even the atmosphere was completely torn apart, and Patrick seemed to want to block, but was directly blasted away by this sudden burst of violent force, and smashed towards the giant eel that seemed to have fallen into a state of madness-

At that moment, Patrick seemed to see the tide and the mountain peaks in Ian, and he swung his sword like a surging wave, or like an irresistible landslide, and wherever the young man's sword pointed, it would be swallowed up by this power.

"The Great Knight—"

At the moment when he was knocked flying, this thought uncontrollably appeared in his heart: "Fourteen-year-old Great Knight Sword Skill?!" ”

"Moreover, he mobilized essentia faster than me?!"

When it comes to pure strength, the blonde nobleman is better than Ian, who is at the peak of the double first energy level, but he has never used the technique of overpowering people, and the Thunder Swift Sword is a highly efficient killing technique that hurts people with reaction speed and the edge of the weapon, and when the enemy's skill is not inferior to the user's, the amount of strength is not the key factor.

Not to mention, Ian invoked power far more smoothly than Patrick.

But this is also the limit, the boy knows that his blow will not really hurt the other party, so after sending Patrick flying towards the giant eel, he himself has no idea of chasing, but turns and jumps, and pounces towards the shark shark in front of the giant eel.

Buzz - The power of the fairy wings acted on both Ian and the ironclad shark, and the shark seemed to sense Ian's arrival, and it silently cheered, accelerating with the boy's strength.

In an instant, a man and a shark, with a pirate captain who was still screaming, pushed by a huge force, instantly accelerating the speed of the ironclad shark to the peak of this environment, and the current vibrated up, and then naturally separated in front of the big shark, and then pushed it forward in the rear.

Rumble! With one breath, the shark accelerated to its limit and distanced itself from the giant eel.

Patrick was slammed into the eel, triggering the second-level beast's furious roar, but it continued to move forward, speeding rapidly.

In less than three seconds, the original indigenous sacrifice site that was still fighting was empty, and only the echo of the giant beast remained.

"Uh...... Lost a move. ”

Patrick, who was blasted into the giant eel, quickly reacted to the current situation, and it was basically impossible for him to quickly return to the original sacrificial place after being carried forward by the giant beast through the tunnels of the holes, let alone turn back to Isengard.

But the main problem is not this.

"These parasites ......"

At this moment, the giant eel in the river has no way to turn back against the humans on his body, and Patrick is not afraid of this stupid big man, but he realizes that among the flesh and blood of the giant eel, there is actually a huge amount of blue parasites spreading.

These parasites, he has also seen. Most of the native labyrinthine beasts and creatures have a way to fight this parasite, either super high or ultra-low body temperature, or a strong shell without leaving gaps, or find other strong but not harmful other parasites to parasitize in advance or symbiosis themselves.

However, for foreign beasts and monsters, as well as those creatures raised by parasites, its parasitic speed is terrifying.

Originally, Patrick thought that these were probably the two extreme possibilities of this parasite - one was completely useless and could not be parasitized, and the other directly seized the body and devoured the brain.

Now, however, he saw a third possibility......

"Strengthened?!"

Based on Patrick's sensitivity to bioelectric electrodus, he was immediately keenly aware that this strange parasite, after successfully parasitizing, did not devour the giant eel's nervous system, nor did it try to replace the brain...... On the contrary.

They actually began to connect, or rather, 'fused' into the giant eel's nervous system, helping this huge beast to control its body better and faster, greatly improving the reaction and speed of this giant beast!

This is also the reason why the Tenglan giant eel, which should not have been able to catch up with the ironclad shark, was able to almost catch up with the ironclad shark on the unfavorable terrain of the underground ruins cave group!

“…… This parasite is definitely inextricably linked to the redwood natives. ”

With this in mind, he also remembered the inheritance of the Great Shaman lineage that he had heard of when he exchanged letters with Ayres before, and could fuse with demonic beasts: "These indigenous totems can avoid parasitism from parasites, and instead convert them into enhanced breeding clothes that improve physical fitness and reflexes. ”

Patrick said thoughtfully, "Does it seem to be the same type of inheritance as the Eclipse Light Refining Dragon?" It's a pity ......"

"If it weren't for the current situation, bringing this parasite back to the family would definitely improve the bloodline even further."

At the same time, Ian, who was almost on the verge of escaping, also noticed the strange cysts on the shark's body.

He couldn't help frowning: "It's bad, no wonder the speed seems to have slowed down a lot." ”

"Are sharks also parasitized?"
