Chapter 752: Beating someone at their own game
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
The Biohazard Rex's claw was ruthless. Purplish-black blood squirted a metre up like a fountain from the Biohazard Styracosaurus' large wound. The piping hot blood splashed onto a crystal glass and slowly trickled down like molten lava.
Following that, the bloodthirsty Biohazard Rex frenziedly feasted on the Biohazard Styracosaurus.
Witnessing such a scene, the quartet felt as though they had spun a cocoon around themselves. Originally, they thought they could encourage the two to fight and benefit from the dispute, but to their shocking horror, the Biohazard Rex unexpectedly and speedily regenerated itself by feasting on its comrade!
Naturally, the gang quickly seized the chance to attack crazily. But they helplessly discovered that the Rex's vitality regeneration was much faster than their combined assaults.
"Darn it...how can we fight it?" Reef hatefully spoke.
They were already lacking in prowess, yet now, they still had to take caution in preventing damage to the surroundings; this included being careful with their own attacks and even hindering the Rex's wild rampage to the environment!
Otherwise, a far worse off scenario may occur.
Yet while they were despairing in their hearts, Sheyan's eyes suddenly flickered as he said.
"I know a way to accomplish the mission.....however, Zi? Till now, I've only seen you pushing out your 'Force Walls', are you able to pull them in?"
Zi hesitated briefly and answered.
"I am but I don't frequently use that, because I normally try my best to avoid a close combat situation."
Sheyan inhaled deeply and revealed a smile.
"Very well, then I have ninety percent confidence of tackling this. Let's carry on battling!"
Upon completing the feast of the Styracosaurus, the Biohazard Rex recovered around 4/5 of its vitality, surpassing even that of the initial 75% at the start.
The contestant quartet continued tangling around with it, beating the Rex as it roared furiously. Nevertheless, the frightening 100,000 HP of the Biohazard Rex was akin to a mountain slapping in their faces. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't defeat it.
One could clearly fathom the weakness of Party Ace, sorely lacking in offensive might. Without the addition of a formidable Growth-Hunter like Zi, Mogensha and Sheyan who were still merely a Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter and contestant respectively...….even with the 300% damage amplification, they would still be inadequate.
Still, one couldn't blame Sheyan and Mogensha. Honestly speaking, although Sheyan was saving up on free attribute points, the realm would at most evaluate him as a Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter. As such, the normal scenario Party Ace should be in would at most be at the Growth-Hunter realm difficulty, and definitely not an Awakener realm difficulty.
It was only due to recent complications, that Party Ace consecutively encountered perilously difficult worlds, and frequently had to rely on brains to deal with the challenges. Of course, the phrase 'large rewards with large risks' was applicable as well.
Without being thrown into near death situations in several worlds, it was absolutely impossible for Sheyan to reap such immense benefits.
As time went by, Reef and Mogensha each used their 'Honorary Dosage Medicines'. Alas, the Biohazard Rex's vitality still lingered above 50,000!
They refrained from shooting rats for fear of breaking the vases. Fearing the Biohazard Rex would shatter another massive cultivation tank, Reef had to forcibly endure two white fireballs in his face. If not, once the Biohazard Rex could feast on the experiment specimen, their painstaking efforts so far would go down the drain.
Just as Zi was gradually losing patience, Sheyan noticed an opportunity. He dashed straight in and slashed his saber towards the human face of the Biohazard Rex!
Although it blocked with its incisive claws, it still received grave damages as blood streamed down the pocket belly of the Biohazard Rex. The bloodied face appeared incredibly malevolent.
With a agonizing roar, the face controlled both claws and viciously thrust them towards Sheyan.
The first claw was blocked by Sheyan but the second pierced into his abdomen. Blood gushed out as the titanium claws impaled in with irresistible force and exited through his back.
Sheyan endured the pain as he pushed off with both legs, pulling out from his impalation in the nick of time; otherwise, the Rex would've diced him apart with its other gigantic claw.
After executing a backwards somersault, Sheyan clutched his punctured abdomen and landed; blood poured out profusely from his wound and formed a tiny blood puddle beneath his feet.
His brows were tightly knitted in anguish and his complexion turned deathly pale.
At this moment, the infuriated Biohazard Rex felt pain transmitting from its belly head. With a raging roar, it spun towards Sheyan and buried its massive head before charging straight in!
There's a saying; a dragon has its reverse scales and touching it will incur its wrath. Similarly, the Biohazard Rex's reverse scale was the human face at its belly. Anyone who touched it, would face its unwavering wrath!
"Take cover!"
Reef was about to activate 'Courage' and change in to protect, while Zi was planning to shove Sheyan aside with her 'Force Collision Wall'. Yet in this instant, a composed and clear voice rung in their party channel.
"Don't."
Simultaneously, Sheyan's lips curled into an indescribably sneer. He stared at the Biohazard Rex's eyes as though he was starting at his own tool.
The enormous Biohazard Rex stomped in frenetically. Even the air emitted mournful wails from massive pressure of its charge.
Probably due to it being an incomplete experiment, it seemed to be slightly staggering while spearing in. This phenomenon enhanced its threatening demeanor. Actually, there was a logic to this. A huge truck travelling at a fast velocity was already pretty pressurizing, instead, a huge truck that was staggering from side to side while travelling at a fast velocity, would send pedestrians running in fear!
Sheyan half-knelt on the ground and watched the Rex with callous eyes, as though watching it running to meet its destiny.
"Come." Sheyan whispered with an invigorated and composed tone. "Even fate can't bring me down, yet you want to?"
An awful stench assailed his nostrils as the astronomical head of the Biohazard Rex heavily slammed into his chest.
Instantaneously, his vision darkened and crackling fractures resounded from his chest bone!
Zi's pupils instantly contracted as she yelped in her heart.
"He…...is he trying to die???"
On the contrary, Reef abruptly announced.
"I think I understand his intentions. Zi, when I say go, you pull him back with your 'Force wall'!"
While surging through the air, the terrifying damage had instantly plummeted Sheyan into near-death state. Fortunately, at this moment, his 'Life-link' ability with Reef was immediately activated.
Two silver, curved protective layers unanimously formed over Sheyan's and Reef's body. They looked virtually impregnable.
Sheyan flew with astonishing speed as he crashed heavily against a glass wall behind. Instantly, a field of wild dancing electric serpents was inducted.
As it turns out, behind him, was coincidentally the observation room where Hammonds and his researchers were hiding!
Although Sheyan was physically strong, he wasn't of the same mass as a beast like the Biohazard Rex. Therefore, naturally, the Biohazard Rex couldn't halt its momentum even after colliding into Sheyan, and continued stampeding forth.
By now, everyone understood Sheyan's plan. He was actually aiming for this right from the start!!
In the beginning, analyze the charging pattern of the Biohazard Rex. Then, incite the beast's wrath with his saber slash and allow it to skewer him. His attempt to flee, was merely to lure this beast into a particular direction.
Where Sheyan chose to land, was ingeniously the direction of Hammond's observation room!
Blood streamed down incessantly from the near-death state Sheyan's lips. Still, his gaze remained cutting and passionate like sharp flaming daggers.
Loads of electric currents jolted across his body but failed to affect him at all. Instead, everything was poured onto Reef's body.
As he groaned, Reef roared out.
"Zi!! Hurry and pull Boss back. Even I can't sustain for multiple seconds with such deadly damages."
Zi's lips were presently wide open and her complexion a little pale. This astonished look instead gave her a more girly beauty feel.
Fortunately, she quickly returned from her shock and wasn't one to mess up. Within a second, pointed out her slender fair fingers and formed an obscure hook sign in mid-air.
Instantly after, a 'Force Wall' formed behind Sheyan and swiftly pulled him inwards.
Undoubtedly, the rampantly charging Biohazard Rex remained utterly oblivious. With its head buried, it viciously collided into Hammond's hiding location!
