Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

Chapter 258 Leaking angel power



The arrow was headed straight for the point in between his shoulder blades.

Atlan had no other choice. The only way he could dodge this attack was to bend his upper body forwards. But because of the uneven terrain of the dark forest, especially the dark 'stream' of water where it sloped down, Atlan would be forced into an unbalanced position.

He would get tipped forwards and eventually end up falling into the stream because of it!

He couldn't think any longer. The Huntsman already let go of the arrow and gave him no time to ponder.

He had to go and step into the dark body of water.

Atlan bent his body forwards, but because of the very thick battle suit, his mobility was limited. He was only able to bend forwards by a little bit, which meant that he wouldn't be able to dodge the arrow fully.

PENG!

A strange sound came out of his back. It wasn't the usual silent arrow that pierced through the chitinous armor. It sounded as if the arrow bounced off his battle suit.

But that was strange. After all, the first layer of his chitinous armor was already on its last leg. It only needed one more hit from the Huntsman's arrow for it to be completely destroyed.

When he looked up, he saw the arrow that was deflected off his back. He focused on its tip and saw that it didn't have a tip at all! It only had a sphere as its tip!

And judging from the ball's speed, the arrow was quite slow compared to the Huntsman's other arrows.

He didn't understand why the Huntsman would choose to use this kind of arrow instead of a sharp-tipped one.

But then, he realized that the momentum from the heavy ball arrow was quickly transferred over to his body. He was being tipped forwards into the black 'stream' of water!

The Huntsman never planned to destroy his last layer of chitin armor at all! It only wanted him to fall into the Remedium's trap instead!

Atlan couldn't stop his momentum. The only thing he could do was raise his leg and step onto the black water, or else he would have fallen head first into it.

And as soon as he stepped foot onto it, he felt the consistency of this 'water' to be extremely thick. It seemed to be even thicker than slime!

Because of its viscosity, Atlan had a hard time raising his leg out of the black water. After all, he was also getting pushed down by the immense weight of his battle suit.

He was only further getting sunk deeper and deeper into the black stream of water, with no sign of a bottom anywhere.

"Carmine! Any help?!"

"We're working on it! We were busy trying to figure out if the black stream was safe to cross or not, but that's all moot now."

"You think?!"

"Okay, listen up. Thankfully, this black stream isn't that dangerous. With just a little bit of force, you can take your leg off of it."

Atlan tried to move his leg, but it only further sunk it deep into the black water. It was up to his shin now, and slowly creeping up to his knees.

"It's sinking me in deeper and deeper!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Wait what?! That's not possible!"

"What's not possible?"

"...."

Carmine went silent in the worst possible time. That was not the best thing to hear when he was about to get swallowed by the black water of the Remedium.

And because he was unable to balance himself, he was forced to put his other foot inside the black water.

"Carmine? Carmine? Are you there?"

If push came to shove, then Atlan had no other choice but to activate his Angel Wings and get out of here. After all, he didn't want to get swallowed by the Remedium where he didn't know if his mutation would even activate. At that point, he was as good as dead.

"We're working on it. This shouldn't be possible! We don't have this kind of black stream in our database.

This black stream isn't supposed to even be dangerous to humans. It's only effective against supernatural beings.

Can you check you open up your control center and see if the green light has turned red? If it has, then that means something is leaking and it could be the reason why you are falling into the dark water."

Atlan did as he was told and touched the black hexagonal box in his chest. Once it opened up, he saw the same small keyboard and screen in the middle.

And on the top right was a small LED bulb which was always on with a green light.

"It's still green."

"Damn! It's not a leak!"

"What would be the problem if it was a leak?"

"This black stream is attracted to supernatural elements. And your battle suit is filled with it. It has about a thousand essences threaded in the very fabric of your suit. If it is leaking, then that could be the reason why the black water is pulling you down!"

But according to the battle suit itself, there was no leak. Unless the light on his control center was malfunctioning, then his battle suit couldn't be the reason for why he was being pulled down further into the black water.

"Can you think of something else?! I'm in knee deep trouble now!"

"We are! We are! Are you sure that the light is still green?"

"Yes! It's still green!"

"Damn it! How?! Your descent is way too fast for a small leak. It would only be this fast if your entire battle suit is emanating some sort of supernatural essence!"

Then, he realized something. His battle suit was leaking a supernatural essence. He was emanating Angel Power.

He was using the False Mutation of his Dimensional Lightspeed Angel Wings to move his body faster to try and get out of the black water.

This caused his whole body to be coated in an Angel Power. And as he pushed his false mutation faster and faster, the more Angel Power was leaking out!
