Chapter 490: Chapter 223 Shadow Assassin (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3

The ground shattered inch by inch and spread outwards in a fan shape, at which point a loud ‘boom’ resounded.

Both of them, including the shadow assassin, were attacked in an instant.

The shadow assassin’s body flashed with a black light and emitted a ‘pop’ sound as the shadow shield cracked in response, and the shadow instantly dissipated like smoke.

Wexman, too, was struck by a backlash, his body stiffening again, but luckily, a flash of black light on him formed a thin black membrane that absorbed most of the damage from the multiple shocks.

However, the shock’s power was immense, collapsing the wall behind Wexman as well, and for a moment, the shrill sound of the alert witchcraft array echoed as footsteps of various intensities started nearby.

Then, a muffled groan was heard as Trevo and the others who were coming to support seemed to be hit by some kind of attack and restrained.

...

Rein didn’t receive the support from Trevo and Vinica as planned, but he didn’t panic and continued to swing his hammer heavily at the leather-armored middle-aged man!

At this moment, Wexman no longer wanted to continue fighting.

For him, face didn’t matter, a misstep was okay, what was important was to gauge the situation, and clearly, the opponent’s defensive measures were very targeted, and their strength was much higher than expected.

So, Wexman made what he considered to be the right choice.

He planned to use the recoil from the moment their weapons clashed to retreat in flight, of course, he wouldn’t choose to confront the mightiest part of the hammer, but instead deftly stepped forward a little, positioning himself at the middle of the hammer’s handle.

He didn’t believe that next time, the opponent would still have the witchcraft tool ‘substitute puppet’ to misguide him.

But as Wexman’s two blood-colored daggers crossed and blocked at the middle of Rein’s hammer handle, his body stiffened for a moment. His plan to retreat using the momentum not only failed, but he was fixed in place for an instant.

Because at that moment, from the daggers came a fierce, multiple shock force. Although Wexman had the protection of the prime force and the shadow shield, his body wasn’t injured, but the momentary halt was unavoidable.

That pause was all Rein needed to seize the opportunity!

Rein, leveraging his strength, consecutively performed ‘giant hammer strike,’ ‘giant hammer sweep,’ and ‘giant hammer jump strike.’ With the effect of ‘effortless,’ his heavy and dark pig head warhammer swung swiftly, as light as a delicate sword.

After that momentary freeze, Wexman lost the initiative and was immediately mired in Rein’s barrage of warhammer strikes, each collision causing him to stiffen for a split second.

These split seconds deprived Wexman of the chance to leap out of Rein’s two-handed warhammer attack range, and each split second was just long enough for Rein to unleash another hammer blow. As a result, Wexman had no choice but to continuously fend off Rein’s attacks with his daggers.

“Clang!!!”

With each collision, sparks flew everywhere!

“Clang!!!”

The tremendous impact force shattered and sunk the ground beneath Wexman’s feet by several inches with each strike. It was this cushion that prevented Wexman from being injured by the warhammer’s powerful impact.

But it also meant Wexman couldn’t continuously withstand Rein’s warhammer attacks in one spot, because after several blows, his ankles would sink into the ground, resulting in an even more passive situation.

So, while fighting, he had to withstand the stiffness caused by the shock and laboriously step back, his movements as rigid as if he was doing the robot dance.

After dozens of exchanges!

The two had fought from the collapsed wall to the empty backyard of the town’s administrative hall.

The sound of weapons clashing was deafening, and the strong airflow brought by the warhammer’s swift swings swept up the surrounding withered leaves and tiny branches, sending them swirling into the air!

Wexman had never encountered such a stifling fight; his advantages in mobility and high-speed movement were completely suppressed by the opponent’s special multiple shock force after losing the first move.

However, he wasn’t worried!

Because the opponent’s series of warhammer blows required continued execution without pausing. If Rein were to gather strength to use some kind of secret technique, Wexman could take advantage of the momentary gathering phase to escape.

If Rein didn’t use his trump card, then how long could he maintain this highly stamina-draining sequence of warhammer attacks?

The moment Rein runs out of steam or even slightly reduces in strength or speed, Wexman’s pressure would also rapidly decrease, and he’d easily break free.

Meanwhile, Wexman didn’t believe that the young-looking boy before him could surpass him in stamina; that was simply impossible.

On Rein’s side, after his Earth-splitting Hammer induced multiple shocks and took out the shadow, enveloping his opponent.

The entire rhythm of the battle then entered the scenario he had anticipated.

As for what Rein needed to do, it was to ensure that each of his hammer blows was forceful and thunderous!

As for the stamina consumption?

That wasn’t his concern.

Because at this moment, he had a full 6 remaining attribute points.

As the fight neared one minute, Rein didn’t hesitate to apply one point to his stamina.

With the remaining attribute points going from 6→5, his Constitution increased from 28 points to 29 points.

Instantly, a surging warmth pumped vigorously from his heart and spread rapidly throughout his body.

In a flash, the soreness and fatigue of Rein’s muscles vanished!

One could see that each hit from Rein’s two-handed warhammer maintained the stable, precise, and powerful state it had at the start of the fight.
