The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe
Chapter 498 - 415: Sunset War (Part 2)
"Hmph."
Seeing King Jana charge towards him again, Salman waved his hand unhurriedly.
In the next moment, countless sea creatures formed from water rushed towards King Jana, crazily biting at him.
However, before these water-formed sea creatures could get close to King Jana, they were all slapped back into their original state of seawater by him with a wave of his hand.
Nevertheless, this wave of attacks slightly slowed King Jana's offensive momentum, and taking advantage of this brief pause, Salman once again used Space Magic, appearing several hundred meters behind King Jana.
Then, he struck again, and once more countless sea creatures formed from water rushed towards King Jana biting at him.
King Jana, with slightly bloodshot eyes, glared at Salman in the distance, his irritation beyond description.
He swore that if he got a chance to get close to Salman, he could instantly crush him to death.
However, Salman, proficient in Space Magic, clearly would not give him this opportunity.
And if he wanted to disregard Salman to attack others, he would constantly face various forms of harassment from Salman.
This meant that no matter his choice, he could only be tightly entangled by Salman, with no way to break free.
This left King Jana, who had always been incredibly bold and fierce, feeling utterly stifled.
It could be said that he had faced countless opponents in his lifetime, and Salman was definitely the most annoying one among them.
While the situation with King Jana was in a stalemate, on the other side of the battlefield, the fight was very intense.
King Rod of Jana's son, Luo Na, was currently engaged in a duel with the Merfolk King.
Both of them being pure Knights, their combat was a direct clash.
The massive aftermath waves pushed the seawater back, forming a vacuum area around them.
The other Knights and Mages fighting nearby were all trying to keep away from the two, avoiding being caught in the aftermath of their battle.
At this moment, the two clashed fists again, and a terrifying roaring sound exploded between them, with a mighty shockwave sweeping through the surrounding seawater.
Due to the backlash of power, the two of them also retreated a short distance from each other.
The Merfolk King cautiously eyed Luo Na, then slowly spoke: "I had only heard of your reputation before; I didn't expect you to be even more formidable than the rumors. To be honest, you have an even greater combat talent than your father. If given more time to grow, you'd likely surpass him."
Upon hearing the Merfolk King's words, Luo Na expressionlessly responded, "I've acknowledged your praise, but I no longer wish to entangle with you. The battle must end quickly."
After these words fell, Luo Na suddenly extended his palm, slapping it against his chest.
In the next moment, a layer of black patterns started to spread wildly from his heart to all parts of his body.
These black patterns were fundamentally different from the blood-red patterns on his father Rod's body.
If King Rod of Jana's blood-red patterns gave an impression of frenzy and bloodlust, Luo Na's black patterns gave an extreme feeling of oppression.
Seeing Luo Na's actions, the Merfolk King dared not hesitate and hurriedly moved to stop him.
The Merfolk King struck out with a punch, whereupon powerful Golden Battle Energy exploded, forming a huge golden fist that aimed fiercely at Luo Na's body.
At this moment, Luo Na suddenly raised his head. By now, the black patterns had spread all over his body.
He slowly extended two fingers, thrusting them fiercely forward.
The enormous golden fist was immediately pierced through by his two fingers, collapsing shortly thereafter.
Finally, Luo Na stomped heavily on the ground, disappearing instantly from his original position. In the next moment, he appeared sidelong above the Merfolk King, his two fingers aimed directly at the Merfolk King's head.
Sensing the threat of death, the Merfolk King narrowed his eyes, pressing his palms together.
In the next moment, golden runes emerged from the Merfolk King's body, whirling around him wildly, ultimately forming a Golden Shield.
The two fingers stabbed into the Golden Shield, instantly blocked, and both sides held that position for a few seconds before the Golden Shield abruptly shattered.
However, the Merfolk King took this opportunity to widen the distance from Luo Na.
Watching the Merfolk King pull away from him, Luo Na furrowed his brows slightly: "I didn't expect you to have such a method; let's see how many times you can block this."
After his words dropped, Luo Na's figure vanished once again. When he reappeared, he was already behind the Merfolk King.
Then both fingers stabbed fiercely towards the Merfolk King's back, as if intending to directly snap his spine.
Yet the Merfolk King repeated his previous trick, bringing his hands together, as the golden runes resurfaced on his body, once again forming a Golden Shield that blocked Luo Na's attack for a few more seconds, and using this chance, the Merfolk King widened the distance again.
Looking at the Merfolk King from afar, the expression on Luo Na's face was slightly unpleasant, as the Merfolk King revealed a smile: "I admit, ever since deploying this move of yours, you've pulled a tremendous lead in overall strength over me. If I lack a trump card, you could certainly take me out instantly."
