Chapter 1251: Tempering Power!

Translator: Sean88888 Editor: Elkassar1
How the hell did a swamp suddenly appear in this place?!
Obviously, it was the set ability on Zi’s set equipment — ‘Marsh Decay ‘.
After that, both of Zi’s swords pushed downwards in the air. As her motion concluded, a black hole at least 10 meters in diameter of appeared above Carlos, who had just landed. Inside the black hole was a violent vortex and bolts of lightning that were zapping about wildly.
A terrifying giant foot, bigger than a house, extended out of the black hole. The skin on the foot was purplish red in colour and seemed like it was made of metal. There were only three toes on the foot – but it would be more precise to call them claws. Each claw was half a meter long, very sharp, and shined with a metallic luster.
The foot stepped on Carlos as soon as it appeared!
‘Devil Stomp’!!
Zi had displayed her horrifying explosive power this time. The dark green glow on her body kept flashing, and MP poured out of her like water pouring down a waterfall.
The foot of the devil did not disappear after stomping down, but kept kneading and crushing whatever was beneath it. A black aura leaked out of the foot and spread on the ground, slithering like snakes. Howls of agony rose from everywhere, long and eerie, as if hell had descended upon the land!
Even before being stepped on, Carlos was already wrapped up in Zi’s ‘Force.Magic Chain’, a very vicious ability which caused continuous damage, so he had already lost a considerable amount of HP. After he was trampled by the foot of the devil, he was forced to use his honorary dosage.
Reef had already rushed over with his ferocious steel claws raised high, about to attack the paralysed Carlos. Seeing this, Carlos could only do something that he had done many times before, and that was to shout: “BOSS, HELP!!”
Rocky was also in quite the difficult predicament at the moment.
He had yet to recover from the injury sustained in the fight against Bind. Having thrown Gungnir two times in succession in his condition, not only had he exhausted his strength, the injury in his body, which had previously been kept in check, was acting up again. Rocky’s face right now was as blue as the face of a performer in the Blue Man Group, and the blood vessels on it was visibly bulging. He looked just like a monster.
Carlos fought with all his might to block a few blows for Rocky, and that had won Rocky a few seconds of precious time. Rocky knew that if Carlos died, he would definitely be next, so be it from an emotional or a personal standpoint, he must save Carlos!
But then he saw a man standing in front of him, blocking his way.
This man was none other than Seaman, the guy Rocky intended to use as a pawn!!
In Rocky’s peak condition, he would not spare someone like Seaman a second glance. He even thought that the only value of Seaman’s existence was to be used by him to deplete Bind’s strength. Never could he have dreamed that Seaman would stand in front of him in such a position, at such a time!
“We meet again, Mr. Rocky,” Sheyan extended his hands to both sides and bowed politely in the dark. “I know the most precious thing to you right now is time. Your body needs time to recover, your ability needs time to cool down, your companion needs time to dig a way through this blocked tunnel.”
Rocky’s gaze gradually turned cold. He slowly raised his hand to grip at Gungnir on his back. The powerful holy lance was fiercely trembling, groaning while emitting a white glow. The glow condensed into the form of little angels, which slowly disappeared afterwards.
“I hate presumptuous people who reach above themselves like you. You’ll definitely die under my Gungnir!”
Sheyan’s lips curled into a faint smile. “I’m looking forward to it… Or maybe we can have another talk? I don’t mind chatting with you for a little longer. I mean it, because wasting time is actually quite beneficial to me. First, my companion should be able to get rid of that guy named Carlos soon. Second, my viruses also need a little time to spread.”
At the mention of viruses, Rocky’s pupils abruptly shrank. His figure turned blurry, and he had suddenly arrived in front of Sheyan in a totally incomprehensible way. He instantly slammed his knee into Sheyan!
Following this strike was a flurry of storm-like attacks.
With a loud bang, the white holy flame around Rocky’s body exploded and ignited everything around him. Even water and rocks became its fuel. Sheyan was blown back to the ground. The white flame twisted around his body and gnawed at his flesh and blood like hungry snakes. His body hissed as it burned.
A fierce glint entered Rocky’s eyes. He raised Gungnir that was enshrouded in white flame and fiercely stabbed it towards Sheyan’s eye!
But Sheyan, who seemingly had no strength to fight back, suddenly grabbed the lance’s tip and stopped it from moving another inch forward!
The white flame made his palm hiss, but black tendrils kept repairing the injury! Sheyan slowly climbed back up from the ground while exerting more strength with his hands, pushing Gungnir back bit by bit. His lips curled into a mysterious smile as he stared at Rocky. Word by word, he said, “Didn’t expect this, did you? A tiny little ant like me, forcing you into such a dire situation.”
Rocky sank his shoulders low and charged into a melee fight with Sheyan. Blood and white flame splashed intensely as both men launched a mad flurry of attacks at the same time. Although Rocky’s attacks fell on Sheyan like rain, Sheyan retained his calm. His occasional counter-attacks were very effective, forcing Rocky to be wary of going all out.
Rocky suddenly saw an opportunity and immediately stabbed his lance forward fiercely. Like a dazzling flash of lightning, the lance pierced into Sheyan’s chest. Holy light and blood burst forth, and the sound of hymns rose, making for a tragically magnificent sight.
But Sheyan also managed to seize an opening after Rocky had used all his might to perform that strike. He punched Rocky in the face, forcing Rocky to retreat covering his bleeding nose. Rocky thought that the blow would be enough to bring Sheyan down, but after Sheyan had staggered back a few steps, he regained his balance and sneered at Rocky. He grabbed Gungnir and pulled it out, then made a beckoning gesture at Rocky!
Gungnir, being a legendary weapon, instantly returned to Rocky’s hands after it was pulled out, but when Rocky saw Sheyan smirking so indifferently, his face twitched. He no longer attacked, but slowly lowered his head and said, “I admit that I was wrong about you, but that doesn’t mean you can act impudent in front of me!”
Sheyan narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Unfortunately, Mr. Rocky, my favourite hobby is to shatter the pride of arrogant people like you.”
“A fool like you have no idea how strong a Temperer is!” Rocky’s voice got louder and louder, resonating within the whole tunnel!
“In the Realms, every 4th, 7th, and 10th level is a key milestone. Every breakthrough to these levels brings significant improvement!” Rocky flashed a sinister grin.
“The gap between an Awakener and a Temperer is comparable to the gap between a normal contestant and a Growth Hunter! Tremble under the terror of a Temperer, you weakling!”
With every word that left Rocky’s mouth, a fierce, restless power could be felt in the air. The flesh and blood of those around became the nutrient for that power! With every beat of the heart, the power also throbbed and grew!
The cracking of bone joints could be heard coming from Rocky’s right hand. The hand then deformed and expanded. A mixture of thick and fine breathing could be heard from around the right hand.
“Everyone has a way of fighting most suitable for them in theory, based on their own characteristics, but the normal shape of the human body is only the most basic version of a biological weapon! To exert your greatest strength, you must have the most suitable fighting form, and an Awakener is someone who can already grasp at the edge of the most suitable fighting form for themself!!”
Rocky’s voice resonated throughout the tunnel.
“Awaken, my true power!”
His right hand, which was holding Gungnir, had become huge and deformed. The muscles swelled, evidently containing terrifying explosive strength. But although the right hand was huge and deformed, it somehow looked to be in harmony with Rocky’s body as a whole, just like an elephant’s unusually long trunk, or a squirrel’s unusually fluffy tail, or a giant ape’s unusually long arms….
Gungnir, meanwhile, was emitting brilliant flashes of light in Rocky’s huge hand, as if it had been reborn!
If the previous Rocky could only exert 50% of Gungnir’s strength, then the Rocky now could exert 70% to 80% of Gungnir’s true strength!!
At the same time, a loud noise came from within the 50-meter long rubble heap in the collapsed tunnel, followed by an explosion! An enlarged Steel File rigidly stepped out from the midst of the flying dust and smoke, like a robot. The mutated part of Steel File was actually his back. At a glance, he looked like he had a hump on his back! His two shields were now positioned on his broadened, thickened shoulders, as if they were embedded there, one on the left and one on the right. Every now and then, parts around his body would shine like the polished surface of a diamond!
When the two Temperers showed their true power and joined hands, the terrible pressure they brought was beyond words. Party Ace had killed Carlos with their collective effort, but the situation had suddenly taken an abrupt turn. The three were now sandwiched in the middle by two Temperers. They had turned from the hunters to the hunted in the blink of an eye!
