Chapter 135 Medium
Chapter 135 Medium
Although Fu Que drew this giant wave with the power of wind element, he himself did not have the ability to control water. Furthermore, because he forcibly created the water tornado, he exhausted his energy and was unable to head towards the True Essence Hub that was supporting the operation of the speedboat for the time being.
Several people were swept away by the giant waves.
"You're going to die on this ship!"
Seeing Fu Que's pale face and miserable appearance, his slanted eyes gritted his teeth. It was originally a very good smuggling operation, with everything arranged thoroughly. In this godforsaken waterway, basically no one would care.
The Waterway Inspection Division had cooperated with them more than once or twice, but they never expected to be caught off guard this time. The Tiger Cavalry suddenly blocked off the waterway without even notifying the Waterway Inspection Division, leaving them completely unprepared.
If this shipment were intercepted by the Tiger Cavalry, the entire supply chain could be uncovered by following the clues. The consequences of such an event were something that Diao Xiaoyan dared not even imagine. This was why his men fought desperately for him.
"Then let's give it a try. To be honest, your heads are quite tempting to me. I don't know what kind of despicable things you've done, but killing one of you is worth killing ten others!"
Fu Que breathed in the salty smell of the seawater, frantically trying to gather the spreading wind elemental power. He had just taken advantage of the chaos to kill a water bandit surrounded by rotting black true energy. The information from the painter about obtaining the sinful cloud ink made him pause in surprise.
Through his exploration over the past few days, Fu Que discovered that the otherworldly painters were very strict about extracting Sinful Cloud Ink; only the most despicable people could obtain extra generous amounts of Sinful Cloud Ink.
This is also a technical skill. At least, in Gaoyang County, when the Qi family faction was being suppressed, Fu Que never received such a generous amount of sinful ink, not even once.
Amidst the foamy waves and the stench of decay, Fu Que and the man with slanted eyes pressed their arms together, their ten fingers intertwined in a struggle.
Click!
In the blink of an eye, the bones broke under the strain.
"Ugh!"
The veins on Fu Que's slanted eyes bulged. He tightened his fingers, twisted his wrist outward, and his slanted eyes' intact right hand twisted and deformed in an instant. He bit off a piece of his lip, using the excruciating pain to wake himself up. He raised the rotten black true energy fingers on his right hand and stabbed them towards his own eyes.
"A magical artifact imbued with the aura of national destiny, a treasure!"
Fu Que had an inconspicuous grass ring on his wrist, which looked like it was made of dried grass and emitted a faint glow.
Ritual implements: Ox and horse bracelets.
The user can consume half a quarter of the national fortune to activate the divine authority in the ox and horse bracelet, granting the user the strength of an ox and a horse in both arms for a quarter of an hour, with a cooldown time of twelve hours.
This is a replay of Fu Que's choice after a fierce head-on clash with the Bloodthirsty Hunter, during which his wrist was almost shattered by the recoil. If Fu Que had had this bull and horse bracelet on his wrist during the battle with the Bloodthirsty Hunter...
He won't have to struggle so much to win.
Although the Ox and Horse Bracelets are magical artifacts, they are not expensive. However, ordinary people cannot control the sudden surge in power and are prone to ruining themselves. If they practice them repeatedly, the national fortune energy they consume cannot be replenished.
Tiger Riders receive generous salaries, but the national fortune isn't something to be used for. As a result, the price of the ox and horse bracelets kept dropping. Of course, this item wasn't suitable for others, but it was perfect for Fu Que himself.
Because of the blessing from the alternate painter, Fu Que is already quite proficient in using these suddenly enhanced powers, especially with the assistance of the Reality Vision.
Fu Que watched helplessly as the rotting black true energy approached from his fingertips. The moon wheel blade spun and danced, forcing back the remaining pirates who were struggling to surround him. He kicked the slanted-eye man into the air with one foot, picked up the sailor's knife surging in the waves with his left hand, and blocked with a backhand.
After blocking two consecutive darts imbued with black, rotten true energy, Fu Que, feeling a corrosive pain in his wrist, roared and sent his spinning moon wheel blade flying in front of a bandit who had thrown a dart, waiting for him to deflect the spinning moon wheel blade.
Fu Que landed abruptly, took a step forward and delivered a diagonal slash. The blade grazed the pirate's leather armor and body with silk, and the dark red entrails mixed with blood floated into the air before being swallowed by the foamy waves.
"Kill him!"
Fu Que's figure was exposed among all the river bandits. This was the first time Fu Que had launched a massacre after boarding the ship. In terms of combat power alone, Fu Que was far superior to these river bandits who combined the power of demons and humans using unknown methods.
However, in terms of destructive power alone, the droopy-eyed creature with its rotten black true energy is not much weaker than Fu Que. The wind element power that Fu Que is currently controlling is just an ordinary gale, not the legendary gale that can destroy gold and corrode bones.
While the ability of the alternate painter is strong, it also has its limitations. All the extraordinary powers require Fu Que to find the corresponding attributes himself, and then inlay them by converting them into sketches and special effects parts.
Since the start of the battle, Fu Que has mainly relied on the power of wind elements and his movement skills to dodge arrows and rotten black true energy. At first, he had some room for error, but now Fu Que is also greatly exhausted. Now, if he is hit head-on once, he will be in serious trouble.
Then, the fearless bandits, relying on their numerical advantage, would overwhelm Fu Que and kill him.
Exploding Talisman.
A spear carrying decaying true energy.
Along with his weapons, Diao Shaoyan unleashed all the destructive power he could throw at Fu Que in the encirclement.
He believed that the remaining bandits, being able to block Fu Que's escape route, would surely kill him if he stayed put, and if he chose to break through in one direction, he would be killed by the bandits wielding explosive talismans in a mutual destruction manner.
First came the intense, viscous, orange-red flames, then the true energy spears emitting corrosive gases, and finally the swirling sailor's knife.
However, Fu Que did not react. He simply dodged to the side when he was caught in the aftershocks of the attack, and the remaining bandits did not rush at him.
The man with the slanted eyes turned to look at his companions in disbelief. He couldn't believe these people were unaware of the consequences of their smuggled goods being intercepted by the Tiger Riders. But when he looked over, all he saw were a few corpses lying on the ground.
Crimson blood gushed from their seven orifices, quickly staining the surrounding seawater red. The corpses swelled and floated, with gurgling bubbles bursting.
Using the power of the wind element would greatly deplete Fu Que's concentration. Isolated and facing a situation of one against many, why would Fu Que spare no effort to create a large-scale water tornado that would engulf everyone present, including himself?
Just as Fu Que used before, wind is merely a medium.
