Earthling in Uncharted Dimensions

Chapter 286: Finding The Secrets.

But the Tubian then revealed a relaxed face with a grin.

"Ah...I remember your face.

It was from afar, but I remember your pathetic expression."

Tubian then chuckled before continuing-

"Hegerus was stupid. He couldn't even kill a worm. Now that the worm has grown, I shall put an end to its worthless life."

The Tubian then clicked his tongue and raised his right hand. Lightning materialised in his palm and took the shape of a whip!

[He should have seen the fight between Hegerus and you. That means he might know the location of the dark elf.]

At the next moment, Hudson conveyed that the time has arrived.

[Projectile at peak velocity. Shall I commence the attack?]

'Negative. I need to extract information.'

After saying this, Lee Shen raised his fists and attained caution. The Tubian exercised the lightning whip and it spews lightning to the surroundings.

"Do you know where Hegerus is?"

Before the Tubian attacked, Lee Shen raised a question which made the opponent lower his whip and laugh wildly.

"Hahaha...you don't need to know, because you will die now."

His poker-face expression stared at the Tubian while D conveyed his assumption.

[Tubians have a severe superiority complex.]

The whip lashed out and Lee Shen evaded each strike with a very small margin. The whiplash caused destructive lightning to move in dynamic directions.

As time passed, Lee was almost at his threshold of tolerance. The adventurer's outfit was thoroughly burnt and damaged. Despite the enchantments worth thousands of Essence, the lightning whip shaved off the defensive properties little by little.

'I can tell that his attention is completely on me.

Hudson, deploy the needles.'

Lee Shen accelerated further and his Essence reserve was being consumed after recharging the Mana reserve continuously.

[Needles en route.]

With a nod, Lee Shen pulled out his nunchuck and attributed it with strength boost. He could tell that the strength has reached a whole new level but Lee was doubtful as to its efficiency.

*crackle*

When a weird weapon appeared in Lee Shen's hand, the Tubian frowned as his attention was focused on the dangling object.

[You've got his attention. Maintain it.]

The nunchuck moved with incredible agility and evaded a dozen of lightning whip's lashes.

But Lee Shen soon saw cracks appearing on the weapon.

'Not good. The weapon will not last long.

Hudson, we are good to go.'

[Ok.]

While maintaining his stance, Lee swung the cracked limbs of the nunchuck to evade any oncoming strikes. But not only he couldn't evade, but the nunchuck was eventually shattered to smithereens.

Though the young man had no idea what that object was, the Tubian was able to assume that the object is a type of weapon and now that it is destroyed, Lee Shen has no other means to defend.

The innate ability to look down on the natives of the Utopia was the speciality of Tubians. They were assured of their strength and that none on this planet could beat him.

Technically, Lee Shen was an outsider, from Earth and received assistance from two elder souls and a system!

The whip disintegrated and Lee Shen could be seen standing a little away from the Tubian, up in the air. Their display of powers showered chaos on the city below them.

'Hudson, my vitals are dangerously low. I may not be able to take another hit.'

Those words were not hollow. He was at his limit of taking any more of those lightning strikes.

The lightning did little damage on him. But it was the usage of Amortal's power that exponentially increased its destructive capabilities.

"Struggling to stand up, eh?"

From the distance, Tubian punched out and the shockwave dashed at Lee. His condition disabled him of any sudden motions and he had to take the attack head-on.

Thus to defend, Lee crossed his arms in front of his chest.

Bam!

Puchik!

"Gwaaa....!!"

The Tubian roared out in pain as he was skewered with multiple projectiles.

*coughs blood*

To act as a decoy was difficult. When it comes to acting as a decoy for Tubian, Lee Shen had thoroughly weighed the pros and cons. It was after a lot of contemplation that he decided to be the decoy.

'That's a hit.'

With consciousness hanging on the last dozen of threads, Lee stabilised his body and saw the Tubian losing his altitude.

The projectiles entered the Tubian's organic body from every direction except the front. As the undivided attention was on Lee, the prideful immigrants did not foresee such a sneak attack.

As soon as the body was penetrated with Tungsten-Mithril-Mercury alloy, the enchantments began to take effect.

The Poison and Paralysis enchantments embedded on the needles were powerful enough to knock out the Draconic-wyvern trio at the slightest whiff. Yet these accumulated enchantments could only take over the body of the Tubian at a slow pace.

All of the Tubian's palms, feet, elbows, knees and thigh bones were punctured by unparalleled strength. The triangular cross-section of the two metres long needles deformed after confirming the capture of the target and several nanobots were released to the Tubian's body.

"W-wha-"

The needles deployed countermeasures to nullify the fall and levitate the puppet. The Tubian, stunned and screaming from the twist in the events, could only try to roar out. But the voice in his throat was sealed primarily.

[We are getting the diagnosis reports.]

Hudson accurately controlled the triangular needles to puncture more of the Tubian's bones as he displayed an urge to escape.

(A.N You might be wondering about certain things. Let me help you.

The Soul of a Tubian is the deadliest part of its body. But the soul is powerless without a body. So the body becomes the vessel that contains the soul which directly makes the body of the Tubian, a fortress.

If one could bypass the defence and inflict physical debuffs on the body of a Tubian, then their souls become powerless without an active vessel to work.)
