Chapter 228 - What Else? (2)
Rina buffed her endurance to withstand the attack and then readied her whip to strangle the six-armed woman, but before anything could happen, a barrage of Sonic Blades handed on the enemy. She tried to ignore it at first, but the damage began to pile up too fast, and then she sidestepped to dodge the attacks. Luke was back and ready to repay the favor.
As soon as Luke landed, he charged toward the enemy and then used Stinger. It wasn't the best combination since he was using one neck of a weapon. She just dodged go the side slightly and then counterattacked Luke with three hits on his ribs, stomach, and face. Luke lost consciousness for a second since such an attack made him lose forty percent of his health, but he recovered in time to stop the next ones. He fired Poisonous Arrows at her face and then she jumped backward.
"As expected, fighting with a big weapon against someone faster is a pain…" Luke muttered.
Rina was already buffing his speed, so things were really complicated. Still, Luke was learning quite fast of the enemy's weakness, unlike in his battle against the horse-face. In any case, before that woman could try anything, Luke attacked her with another barrage of Sonic Blades, just like before, she focused on dodging them, even though their power was low if compared to the previous. For whatever reason, that woman decided to focus on speed and strength, so all the other attributes were severely low compared to her level and Luke was determined to exploit that.
After stopping attacking for a moment, the six-armed woman dashed at Luke, but then he used Sonic Blades again, she managed to dodge those until she was five meters away from Luke, but once that distance decreased, she was unable to get closer and dodge at the same time. The very moment she stopped advancing, Luke used Stinger and without any other option, she used her six arms to grab the blade of the ax. The ground below them started to crack since the woman didn't let Luke's attack push her back. Then very suddenly, a fireball emerged from behind Luke and flew toward her face.
Shalia's attack had been pretty effective, the six-armed woman tried to run in order to escape the attack, but it exploded before she could do anything. After the smoke created by the explosion dissipated, it revealed just a small burn on the left cheek of the woman, but she looked pissed like someone had put a hole in there.
After clicking her tongue, the woman changed her posture and lowered her center of gravity. Much faster than before, she charged toward Luke, but then she stopped when she was about to hit Luke. Then it came… a super barrage of punches. Luke clenched her teeth and tried to block those, but he didn't feel any weight behind them when his ax was hit. Something was off and definitely wasn't something good…
When Luke tried to take a step back, all the power of the woman's punches suddenly and finally arrived on his ax. The pressure had been so massive that Luke's arms broke instantly and he was sent flying even faster to the distance than the time Cresta launched him.
"The hell…" Luke muttered while he was in the air.
That wasn't good, Rina was left alone yet again, her combat abilities weren't enough to stop that six-armed woman, and yet… he couldn't even stop moving in the air. Or so he thought at first… Luke used Water Manipulation to create a path and then Shalia froze it to make them slide. Thanks to that, they managed to maneuver in the air without suffering any damage, but Luke's arms still were broken.
"Focus on bombarding the enemy with these until Rina heals you," Shalia said and then made some ice stones fall on Luke's hands. "Those are pieces of that ice slider."
"Aya, ma'am," Luke said and then focused his eyes on the six-armed woman.
Rina had acted fast and her whip was now enthralling that woman, but the enemy grabbed and pulled her away and tries to grab her neck. However, several projectiles pierce her arms, and then Luke finally returned. The six-armed woman was forced to let Rina go. Upon seeing the situation with his arms she approached to heal him.
"You guys sure have some neat tricks," Luke said. "It is good that I have one myself as well."
Luke showed some ice stones on the palm of his hands and then used Weapon Augmentation. He wondered why ordinary stones didn't work with the skill, but those made of ice worked… was because they had mana and emitted cold? Nevertheless, the six-armed woman grabbed those with her arms and while she suffered some damage, it also kept her busy while Rina healed Luke. Attacking with bigger projectiles wasn't possible since Luke barely could hold his ax…
The six-armed woman was being careful for some reason, maybe she was scared of getting hit in the head by one of those ice stones. Nevertheless, Luke found a chance for him thanks to that. He dashed toward the enemy and then used Stinger. That woman tried to stop him, but she misjudged his attack, in the end, Luke's a cut her left side a little bit. Not to mention, she noticed that her endurance decreased a little, so he realized what Luke was planning…
In the next moment, Luke turned around and prepared to attack, what the enemy didn't expect was the fact that he would throw his hammer with all his might toward her head.. At the last moment, she managed to stop the weapon with all her six arms, which saved her from one problem, but not from the next one… Luke suddenly appeared in front of her and then he used Fury Punches on her stomach. The first strike didn't do much damage, but from the second onward, the damage increased…
