Chapter 854 854: Difficult Battle!
The crimson carapace merman clad in silver armor did not take Tang Li Xue's perfect copy seriously as it charged fearlessly toward her and Lucia!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy sneered confidently while muttering in a mocking tone: "I really want to see if your cool-looking armor can withstand some electric shock~!"
The perfect copy gracefully raised her slender soft hand and the terrifying deep purple lightning sparks began to burst out from her body!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder echoed inside the armory when the deep purple lightning condensed into a majestic figure!
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it condensed to form a dark purple lightning dragon illuminating the dark and gloomy armory!
The majestic deep purple lightning dragon immediately flashed toward the crimson carapace merman clad in silver armor, and they clashed head-on violently against each other!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy knew that her [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] should be far from enough to kill the crimson carapace merman.
But at least, she thought that her [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] should be more than enough to beat up that crimson carapace merman and rub it onto the ground for a while.
BWOOOSH~!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy: "???!!!"
Surprisingly, the crimson carapace merman suddenly rushed out from the dense smoke and dust caused by the previous violent clash between it and [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]!
The crimson carapace merman was actually completely unaffected and unscathed!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy was caught completely off guard by it, and it was already too late for her to react!
Fortunately, Lucia, who stood by the perfect copy's side, was quick enough to react.
Lucia instantly activated her [Slow Motion] buff while sprinting forward to block the crimson carapace merman!
[Slow Motion: The user will feel the flow of time around him/her slow down tenfold. Buff duration: 5 minutes, Cooldown: 1 hour.]
The crimson carapace merman threw a heavy punch with its crab-like claw hand!
But in Lucia's sight, the speed of crimson carapace merman's punch was as slow as a crawling turtle!
Lucia easily dodged it while unleashing her flurry of combo to counterattack!
[Blade Feather Slashes] x20~! n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Lucia repeatedly swung her golden-edged sharp wings toward the crimson carapace merman's weak points such as its neck, armpit, stomach, heart, chest, and so on.
Lucia's attacks were so fast that even Tang Li Xue's perfect copy could only see dozens of afterimages in less than one breath!
Unfortunately, all of Lucia's attacks failed to even leave any scratch on the crimson carapace merman's silver armor!
"Holy cow~! What the hell is that freaking armor?! It does not conduct electricity, and it also does not even have any gap?! It does not make any sense at all, right?!" Tang Li Xue's perfect copy exclaimed in shock mixed with frustration.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth as her stunningly beautiful face flushed red in anger and shame.
She also activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff without any hesitation to increase her speed by a few times before she dashed swiftly toward the crimson carapace merman with [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] to help Lucia!
At this moment, the crimson carapace merman was still throwing heavy punches toward Lucia, and sometimes, it would try to catch Lucia with its claw hand, so Lucia would not be able to dodge or move around freely anymore.
But the crimson carapace merman's every attack and move was only as slow as a snail when Lucia's [Slow Motion] buff was still in effect, so Lucia could dodge all of them effortlessly!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy took the chance when the crimson carapace merman was too focused on Lucia to launch a sneak attack at it from behind!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BAAAANG~!
[Moon Shattering Strike] was the only direct defense penetration attack that Tang Li Xue had.
It should be the most effective attack against thick-armored enemies like this crimson carapace merman.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy even deliberately struck the back of the crimson carapace merman's head from behind with all of her strength!
Normally, this attack should be more than enough to burst the crimson carapace merman's brain and turn it into mush!
But who knew that the crimson carapace merman would still remain completely unaffected even after being hit by the perfect copy's [Moon Shattering Strike] heavily on its head?!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief. She had become completely dumbfounded for a few moments.
This crimson carapace merman clad in silver armor was definitely the true image of the impenetrable walking metal tank!
The crimson carapace merman took this opportunity to grab the perfect copy's fragile-looking neck with its claw hand!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy was instantly unable to breathe and felt as if her snowy-white neck would be crushed by the crimson carapace merman's strong claw hand!
The perfect copy's feet left the floor as the crimson carapace merman picked her up easily with one hand!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Lucia attacked the crimson carapace merman many more times desperately, but it still completely ignored Lucia as if Lucia's attacks could not even tickle it.
It seemed the crimson carapace merman was really determined to finish off Tang Li Xue's perfect copy first!
Normally, the real Tang Li Xue only needed to un-summon her perfect copy to get away from it, but unfortunately, the real Tang Li Xue was too busy to pay any attention to her perfect copy right now!
.....
At this moment, the real Tang Li Xue and Little Loki in its Battle Form plus its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones were fighting fiercely against the burly purple merman with a golden trident!
After exchanging dozens of moves, Tang Li Xue already realized that the burly purple merman's golden trident was truly extraordinary.
It was not inferior at all compared to the crimson carapace merman's impenetrable silver armor!
The golden trident could pierce all kinds of defense easily as if they were made from paper!
It could also automatically lock and track its attack target, so dodging its attack was only a futile effort.
With these two effects, the golden trident was truly the scariest weapon that Tang Li Xue had ever seen or faced so far!
Of course, it did not mean this golden trident was completely invincible.
The burly purple merman thrust its golden trident swiftly toward Tang Li Xue's neck!
Tang Li Xue had already activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff, so she could react much faster than usual.
Her [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] was not fast enough, so she activated her [Wind Burst Step] to swiftly retreat back further from the burly purple merman!
BWOOOOSH~!
The tip of the golden trident was stopped right in front of Tang Li Xue's face, but it failed to reach her!
Yes, this was one of the ways to face the mighty golden trident that Tang Li Xue found.
Since she could not block and dodge its attack, then she just needed to get away from the radius of its attack in time!
Anyway, it was impossible for the burly purple merman to throw its golden trident like a javelin at Tang Li Xue unless it did not mind if she picked it up and used that golden trident against itself!
She could also use the black [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp to block it.
The [Sword of Disaster] she has should be a much higher grade weapon compared to the golden trident, so it should not break even if she used it to block the golden trident's powerful attacks.
However, she would feel as if both of her hands were almost torn apart after she tried to do it before, so getting out from the radius of its attack should be the most feasible choice.
Meanwhile, Little Loki only used its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to keep harassing and slowly wearing down the burly purple merman!
Of course, Little Loki had long been greedy for the golden trident, the black treasure boots, and the silver armor!
Little Loki already wanted to eat them since the very start in one gulp using its [Heaven's Devour], but Tang Li Xue hastily stopped Little Loki from doing it.
These three treasures were clearly extraordinary, so how could she let Little Loki eat them just like that?!
Little Loki was extremely displeased by Tang Li Xue's decision, but fortunately, it still obediently followed it.
"All right, Little Loki... Can you please stop sulking already? You have already eaten so many precious ores and materials before, so you should at least leave these three treasures for me, Lucia, and Yaya, right?!" Tang Li Xue said to comfort the pouting Little Loki.
Before Little Loki could answer Tang Li Xue...
PUFF~!
The muscular green merman who was wearing the pitch-black treasure boots suddenly appeared behind Tang Li Xue and stabbed at her from behind!
Its objective was to stab at Tang Li Xue's heart from behind, but Tang Li Xue reacted extremely fast by twisting her slender body to the right side in order to dodge the muscular green merman's blades!
However, the muscular green merman's blades still managed to graze Tang Li Xue's back, leaving a long bloody horizontal wound on her back!
"Hiss, this sneaky green bast*rd~!" Tang Li Xue angrily cursed while hissing in pain.
Tang Li Xue quickly brandished her pitch-black [Sword of Disaster] at the muscular green merman in rage, but it had already retreated away and disappeared again!
Tang Li Xue could only gnash her pearl-white teeth in unbearable rage!
"Don't think that I really cannot find you just because you have those treasured boots~!" Tang Li Xue murmured while grinning evilly.
