As Cha Jun Sung flung out, his hand split vertically and the ends connected .
The shape is weird but looking closely, it is a bow . The flesh that rides up the bowstep makes an arrow . It is the size of a spear .
The arrow is heading for Beholder . Cha Jun Sung instinctively noticed that he lacks in combat compared to Medusa .
But another instinct told him that Beholder is more dangerous than Medusa . It is best to get rid of an enemy that holds its weapon within .
Beholder’s eye glared and the atmosphere became heavy . It felt like the speed of the arrow slowed down for a moment and it stopped for a blink of an eye . Is his super power psychokinesis? Beholder took this time to quickly avoid the arrow, and Medusa also awakened her body .
The eye grows larger . It grew so big that it covered the upper and lower body whole . It is an extension of the millet that Cha Jun Sung killed in the cave . The difference is the coat covered in tentacles that protects the eye .
He does not know its usage, but it seems to be a part that assists the super powers or takes over attack or defense . If not, it is too unprotected .
Bang!
The arrow goes through buildings and disappears far away . Windows and walls could not stand against it . There is no way of knowing how far it’ll go . That is not important to the monsters watching this battlefield .
Cha Jun Sung lands on the ground . He leapt the height of a skyscraper but as long as he does not have wings and there is gravity, there is bound to be restrictions .
“It would have been good if we had been able to talk…… I’ll take care of you just before you’re dead . ”
Reptile pupils getting closer, Medusa welcomes Cha Jun Sung when he comes down . She strikes out with the bone spear as though she had been waiting .
It feels like she only slashed it once, but there were 100 flashes of light . As fast as the speed of light, it is a spear with ultra strength that brings on a visual illusion .
The bone spear grazes flesh . The flesh rips and as soon as blood splatters, it is healed . Cha Jun Sung has not been wounded since fighting the Red Heart . The Red Heart lost because of the wide range, but Medusa pushed forward to force Cha Jun Sung to stay on the defense .
There are times when success and failure are distinguished by who grabs the advantage first . If Cha Jun Sung had been calm and logical, he would not have handed it over so easily . This is also what Medusa had intended .
Unlike Cha Jun Sung, she is able to determine what is advantageous and what is a disadvantage . She did not come here to play around .
She is supposed to be capturing Cha Jun Sung with Beholder, but he is a strong mutant and the smallest mistake could cost her her life .
With sealed arms and legs, Cha Jun Sung swung his tails . He attacked Medusa’s defense with an extended blade in overwhelming momentum .
“I was wondering when he would use his tail . ”
Medusa retreated and turned the bone spear with both hands . The rotational force created an 8 meter diameter shield that flung the tails away .
It felt like the victory would change because the battle was reversed, but Cha Jun Sung’s movement stopped short and started again like before . It is Beholder’s doing .
“Medusa, tell me honestly! You can’t capture him without me, can you?”
Beholder chirps and comes down from the top of the building . Though he is in the air, it is natural as though he has a parachute because he is adjusting his weight with torsion .
“Of course . No matter how crazy he is, we’re at the same level . There’s only a destructive instinct left over if that happens, so distractions disappear . It could be even more tricky . ”
He only goes for the enemy’s life without looking after his own body . She might be able to kill him, but capture is impossible .
9 eyes watch the enemies ahead . It may be because Beholder already went in and out of his mind before, so he is still strong but he has become a little weaker . This enemy is stronger than any mutant he has fought until now .
Cha Jun Sung felt this by instinct . And there is not just one but two .
If they were fighting physically, he would fight without considering anything else, but one takes him on directly and the other supports . That divided his attention . Especially that eye . It ties his body down or slows time down in crucial moments .
It is just a matter of becoming exposed when attacking, but it is suffering an unfair strike if getting caught on his ability against defense .
“He’s looking at you . ”
Beholder slowly goes behind Medusa . All 9 eyes are looking at him . He is first on the kill list .
“How far can you restrict him?”
“His repulsive force is stronger than Inferno’s . It’s fine for short moments but I would only be able to do 20% if I need to maintain it for the duration of a battle . ”
20% is an amount that can be decreased, so the repulsive force gets more severe as the opponent is stronger . In other words, Cha Jun Sung is above Inferno .
‘If that guy comes to his senses… . . ’
It would not be at the level of a disaster . The disasters that Medusa has seen are the one in Africa and the Empress . She is strong, but she cannot surpass them .
Among the subordinate nightmares however, she considers herself one of the strongest . Like the father, the child is strong .
That Black Demon is showing strength that is comparable to Red Eye’s . If she captures him, helps him to gain his sanity, and brings him in as an ally, he will become a reliable pillar along with Blood Lord .
“20%… . . Then what about weakening him and going back into his mind?”
“We’d have to try it out . ”
Beholder did not speak negatively . He does not know because they have not tried it . It could work and it could not .
But looking at Medusa’s expression, he needs to make even the impossible happen .
***
Bang bang bang bang!
An arm that has been changed into a huge sword slashes through the air . Medusa did not run away, and jockeyed each with her spear .
The black smoke that came out whenever he breathed had decreased by a little . The source is obvious . Medusa realized that it is related to Cha Jun Sung’s strength, or stamina, but that does not change anything .
He is still vigorous with just 80% . Regretfully, this is the same for the enemy .
The sword hits the ground . It was not as though this caused an earthquake or a split, but that force tickled Medusa’s skin .
Medusa spun around and whipped her 15 meter tail to hit Cha Jun Sung’s cheek .
Cha Jun Sung grabs his cheek in pain . His 9 eyes are also on his cheeks, so this is the same as hitting his eyes . His sight becomes distorted and paralyzed . Medusa is becoming blurred .
Medusa’s arm bends abnormally . It is a screw attack that adds to the rotational force of a straight edge . It is the best to penetrate with .
That attack goes for Cha Jun Sung’s stomach . It digs in through flesh and muscle that is harder than metal . It turns his organs and twists them . This is a wound that would have killed humans and average mutants 100 times over regardless of regeneration, but Cha Jun Sung endured it .
“Die……”
“Did he take the hit on purpose? I guess he’s not as crazy as I thought . ”
His fist becomes round and grows thorns . It looks exactly like an iron mace . His shoulder muscles writhe and bullets are fired . They are aimed at Medusa’s head . It has the power to blow something up .
Medusa left the bone spear and raised both her arms . The opponent is trying to give his flesh and take her bones . They are too close . She will just take a hit this time .
She went flying like a bomb fragment from the incoming strength . She looked wild sweeping backwards across the ground, but it was like looking at a broom .
“Ugh! My arms… . . ”
The flesh that covered both of her arms are crushed and the bones are shattered . The way it hangs is so ghastly that it would have been better to cut it off .
“Beholder, what about entering?”
“Kihit! I can’t go in . His mental defenses are completely different from before . I don’t think it’ll be possible until the pressure applied to him is gone . ”
She takes out her bone spear, and Cha Jun Sung approaches her . As she is also a level 8, she heals both of her arms quickly .
Cha Jun Sung had been elated until now, and suddenly kneels . Is it because of Beholder? No .
“Seems like the special drug is finally kicking in . It was hard to adjust the dosage . ”
Medusa draws her spear . She can take out a spear from her neck bone whenever she consumes nutrients, but there is a clear liquid at the end .
“With your strength, you can withstand my poison even if it isn’t diluted, but it’ll be a different situation from a wound or being half-dead . There’s the hardship we went through of coming all the way here, but wouldn’t it be a waste if one of us dies? Whether that’s you, me, or that guy . ”
