Chapter 78 The Illusion of the Giant Arrow
At the same time, Su Wanyue also moved to the side of the Rain Salamander. Zhao Hai's two palm attacks gave her a good opportunity.
She transformed into a dazzling blade of light, slashing towards the human face on the Rain Salamander's head.
There wasn't just one blade of light, but dozens—
Su Wanyue was in the air, but her figure seemed to be reflected by a mirror, splitting into two, then four, and in the blink of an eye, a lightning corridor composed of "her".
Every afterimage was a strike of the blade, each strike aimed at the Rain Salamander's face.
Seeing this, the human-faced rain salamander immediately turned its body, using its back to meet Su Wanyue's blade.
"Puff puff puff puff—!"
The sound of dense, rain-like slashes exploded instantly, drowning out the sound of the torrential rain.
Most of the dozens of afterimages of sword light that Su Wanyue created landed on the back of the Rain Salamander as it spun around. Sparks and ghostly blue water light flew wildly, and the ear-piercing scraping and cutting sounds were enough to make anyone's scalp tingle.
Even though the Rain Salamander could strangely disperse and deflect most of the force of the slashes, Su Wanyue's long-prepared explosive attack was still formidable. Moreover, the power of her dozens of sword beams was far greater than the power of Zhao Hai's two palm strikes!
Therefore, although the rain salamander had deflected many of the blades that had landed on its back, there were still several places where its skin had been cut with deep cracks, and dark green fluid mixed with rainwater seeped out.
At this moment, while Zhao Hai and the others were fighting the Rain Salamander, Xu Wenchu and the old man, the two auxiliary units, drove to the side, trying to circle around behind the Rain Salamander and continue their journey from behind. The other ordinary survivors naturally followed Xu Wenchu and the old man in their cars.
"Oh no! That salamander is injured! Be careful of its hallucinogenic ability!" The old man shouted a warning as soon as he saw that the salamander had been injured by Su Wanyue.
In excruciating pain, the Rain Salamander's eerie human face abruptly turned towards Zhao Hai and Su Wanyue, its venomous expression almost tangible. It opened its massive maw, and a silent shriek transformed into visible ripples that spread outwards. The raindrops, drawn by these ripples, instantly coalesced into countless dense, eerie blue droplets before it, each droplet shimmering with a faint, illusory human face at its center!
"Scatter!" Zhao Hai shouted, and the poisonous mist surged and gathered, forming a dark green shield in front of him that was constantly being corroded and replenished.
On the other side, the four water arrows that had been binding Wang Hu suddenly exploded as if receiving a command the moment the Rain Salamander shrieked! They transformed into countless finer, yet faster, blue water needles, avoiding the front of Wang Hu's fist wind and attacking his entire body from various tricky angles.
Wang Hu roared, his muscles bulging and his skin gleaming with a metallic sheen. He actually withstood most of the water needles, producing a "clanging" sound like striking metal. However, a few highly penetrating water needles still managed to break through his defenses, spraying out several bursts of blood.
The rain salamander still adheres to the principle of equality, and Su Wanyue was no exception. The raindrops around her quickly turned into water needles, silently shooting towards her all over her body!
These water needles, as fine as cow's hair, shone with a restrained yet sharp blue light. They were extremely difficult to detect under the cover of the rain, almost blending into the falling raindrops. Only when they were close enough to her would they suddenly reveal their killing intent. Their coverage was so wide that they almost completely blocked Su Wanyue's space to dodge.
However, Su Wanyue showed no sign of panic. With a swift movement of her blade, she deflected all the water needles one by one!
As the three of them blocked the water needles that were aimed at them, their expressions suddenly changed.
Suddenly, a water arrow, hundreds of meters long and tens of meters wide, appeared above their heads and hurtled towards them at great speed, its attack range enveloping Zhao Hai and his two companions.
"There's no escaping it!" Zhao Hai's face was extremely grim.
But he wasn't idle either; his dark green shield instantly appeared above the heads of the three of them.
Su Wanyue's blade also emitted a condensed, almost tangible, ring-shaped blade aura that radiated outwards from her center—not for attack, but for defense. The blade aura spun rapidly, emitting a sharp whistling sound as it cut through the air, forming a high-speed cutting blade wheel barrier above the three of them.
"Thump—!"
The hundred-meter water jet crashed down, but the moment it touched the dark green shield, it shattered like a torn curtain, bursting into a shower of blue rain.
There was no impact.
There was no shock.
Even the weight of raindrops falling on the shield was as light as a feather.
Zhao Hai froze. The poison core was still pumping out poisonous mist frantically, but he couldn't find the enemy. Wang Hu's bone shield remained raised high, and the tiger soul golden light in the bone gaps crackled in the air. Su Wanyue's ring-shaped blade wheel was still whistling above her head, but only the sound of wind remained.
"Watch out!" Wang Hu suddenly shouted.
After saying that, Wang Hu quickly moved his giant-like body and came to stand in front of Zhao Hai and Su Wanyue.
By the time Zhao Hai and Su Wanyue reacted, six water arrows had already hit Wang Hu.
"Pfft!"
Six water arrows, gleaming with a cold, eerie blue light, pierced Wang Hu's robust body almost simultaneously.
With a piercing tearing sound, the arrow pierced deeply, all the way to the hilt!
Blood gushed out instantly from the six gruesome wounds, spreading a large, glaring crimson across Wang Hu's bronze skin, and then quickly flowing down his muscle grooves.
"Wang Hu!" Su Wanyue exclaimed in shock.
How is that possible?!
Zhao Hai was shocked, a chill running down his spine. The power of these water arrows was completely different from the previous probing attacks! After Wang Hu activated his giant form, his body was as hard as iron alloy, making him impervious to ordinary attacks. The previous water needles and arrows hadn't even scratched his defenses. But these six arrows not only pierced through him easily, but the wounds were so deep that bone was visible, and blood was gushing out!
"Cough..." Wang Hu's massive body swayed, and his face paled instantly, but he gritted his teeth and let out a low groan. He did not retreat an inch and remained as solid as a mountain in front of the two.
"Damn it! The giant arrow above our heads was just a hallucination created by this weird contraption! It made us focus all our attention on the giant arrow above our heads."
"But the real, bizarre attack is these six water arrows right in front of us," Zhao Hai said with a grim face.
"When did we fall under this strange illusion?" Su Wanyue asked, puzzled.
"Those harmless water needles must have been mixed with this strangely flowing blood. The water needle attack was designed to trap us in its illusions through some means. What a terrifying ability!" Zhao Hai said, expressing his guess.
"Brother Tiger! How much has your combat strength increased?" Zhao Hai asked.
Wang Hu is injured at this moment, but with the help of his abilities, his combat power will definitely double!
