SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

Chapter 19: Sweeping Bandits(5)

Viper did not fall to the ground but was able to land on his feet. His feet keep moving backward until he found his balance. His cheek started to swell.

"Hi-hi-hihihi! Hahahaha!" He is holding his swelling cheek while laughing, then his eyes and face suddenly turned fierce.

"I will skin you alive! I will cook you alive and eat your flesh!" Viper is so furious. He felt humiliated by Feiyu. A big magic circle showed up below his feet.

WATER SNAKE

A seven-meter-tall water snake rises. It is carrying Viper on its head. Viper directed it to Feiyu. The water snake opens its mouth and aims at Feiyu. A magic circle forms at the snake's mouth.

WATER BOMB

Feiyu is dodging the powerful water bombs being shot by the water snake.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The water bombs missed Feiyu and keep hitting the ground, causing big holes to appear. Soil, stones, and gravel keep being blown up, and then thick dust formed.

"Tsk. Maintaining this water snake really consumes too much mana. But this isn't enough to vent my anger for humiliating me!" thought Viper.

He predicted where Feiyu will dodge.

A water bomb attacked Feiyu. He moves where Viper predicted.

"Taste my anger!" Viper directed the water snake toward Feiyu. The water snake opened its mouth.

Viper jumped away and watches his enemy. He wants to see Feiyu's body getting crushed by the the jaw of water snake.

Feiyu saw the incoming water snake, but he already predicted it. He was waiting for it. His body suddenly releases more aura. He moves his entire body in a rhythmic pattern. A rotating sphere aura surrounded Feiyu. The water snake hit the aura sphere, but there was no explosion.

WATER FLOW STYLE: POLE SHIFT

Feiyu canceled the impact of the water snake by redirecting its force. He rotated his whole body and controlled the direction of the water snake. Through the aura sphere, Feiyu returned the water snake to Viper with twice the power of the original attack.

"Fuck!" Cursed by Viper

Boom! The water snake hit Viper, who had no time to dodge.

"Ahhhh!" screams Viper while being pushed by the water snake.

"Ahhhhh" shouts Viper. He is trying to disperse the skill. He was able to reduce the impact earlier because his mana is still in the water snake.

SPLASH! The water snake disappeared, and a puddle of water fell to the ground.

Viper is trembling with anger. He took potions from his pouch and drank them all at once. His injury only recovered a little. He threw the small porcelains to the ground, then stomped the broken porcelain as if stomping on someone's face.

"AHHHHHH!" He screams, letting out his frustration. He feels like a raging volcano with nowhere to vent. Everything did not go according to his wish ever since he fought with Feiyu.

Viper lowers his body. His whole body is almost parallel to the ground. His left leg is slightly bent. He stares at Feiyu with huge killing intent. He releases a large amount of aura. The aura turned into a snake that clads the whole body of Viper.

Viper rapidly moves toward Feiyu.

Feiyu attack with water bombs, but Viper easily avoided them. Viper is moving like a high-rank snake slithering on the ground. Feiyu put a Pole Shift stance.

Viper suddenly changed his direction, "Hahahaha! Pretty boy, after I escape, I will definitely hunt every family of soldiers that attacked here. I will bite where it is most painful. I will make you all regret it! Hahahaha!"

Feiyu is startled. He thought Viper wants to kill him very badly.

"I cannot let him escape. He will only cause more harm to the kingdom," thought Feiyu, then he moves toward Viper to block him.

Viper smiles. He cannot do anything for the pole shift of Feiyu, so he can only lure him.

TAIL WHIP

Viper rotates his body and kicks toward Feiyu. A tail of a snake made of aura whips at Feiyu.

WATER SHIELD

BOOM! The water shield cast by Feiyu in a hurry was crushed. The tail whip was too strong.

Feiyu is hit by the tail whip. He fell and pushed to the ground. Dust forms where Feiyu is dragged in the ground.

WATER PILLAR

A big pillar of water moves

Boom! It crashes at Feiyu. More dust forms where he is located.

A blow of wind clears the dust, Feiyu appears in a bad state. He escaped the water pillar, but the tail whip badly damaged his left arm, and his left rib is injured. His arm guard on his left arm is broken. The part of the armor that protects his left rib cracked. His body is full of dust, his cape is torn, and blood is leaking from his mouth. He took health potions, but he cannot use his left arm to perform pole shift.

"Hihihihi, hahahaha! I finally vented my anger. Now your left arm is wasted. You can no longer use that martial skill. I was planning to slowly play you to death, but I still have to play with your friends later," Viper took out a small metal case from his pouch.

Viper opened the metal case and took out a black ring with a black metal sharp fingernail. He put it on his right index finger. The ring with a fingernail is a poison weapon. A green gem is at the upper part of the fingernail. Magic runes are carved all over the ring and fingernail. The ring is called Death Touch. One touch on the enemy could kill him!

Feiyu calmly stares at complacent Viper. He positioned his right hand and foot to the front, while his left hand and foot are behind. He stretches his right hand. His forearm is slightly bent while his palm is facing up. His fighting stance is set.

"I don't need two arms to kill you. One is enough."
