Chapter 122: Irregular License Exam (9)
This energy that burst forth from this young man suddenly formed a barrier around him.
This wasn't a barrier in the traditional sense of a barrier, but rather a barrier that was wrapped around him like a layer of skin. This barrier was created to completely cover him from head to toe, just like a suit of armour.
With this barrier, he was able to resist all of the water needles that came at him, allowing him to push the sahuagins.
When the sahuagins noticed this, they immediately started to draw back while firing more water needles.
However, the young man with the barrier ignored all of this.
The sahuagins were retreating while shooting these water needles, so they were moving slower than normal.
The young man had abandoned all caution and was charging them with reckless abandon, so he was able to catch up to them easily and slam his fists up against their tridents.
One would think that the human fist would be weaker than a trident, but there was a clanging sound like metal hitting metal when the young man's fist hit the trident.
The sahuagins were all pushed back by this rush by the young man.
The two that had been focusing on the other two humans had no choice but to come and help the other sahuagins take down this human.
It was at this time that the young man with the small sword and the girl with the staff took advantage of this opening.
Both of them quickly shot out attacks at the two sahuagins that had turned their backs to them.
These might be attacks that had been released in haste, but there was no doubting the power behind them.
With this, it would be enough to take down the sahuagins.
I was debating whether to jump in at this moment, but it turned out that it was unnecessary.
There were two walls of water that suddenly came up from the ground that blocked the attacks for these two sahuagins.
Unlike before where these attacks had been able to pierce through the walls of water, these walls of water stood firm against these attacks.
When the two of them looked closely, they found that it was the lizardman who had created these two walls of water.
The lizardman had dipped its trident in the water and that was what created these two walls.
But because of this, there was what seemed to be an opening that appeared.
There was a moment where they would be able to attack the lizardman.
"I won't let this chance escape!" The young man with the barrier shouted before pushing back the sahuagins and charging at the lizardman.
He didn't even bother picking up a weapon, he was just using the barrier around him to attack.
With his fists raised, the young man wanted to punch a hole through the lizardman.
But before he could make contact, the lizardman suddenly swung his trident up so that the back part of it was coming at the young man.
The young man immediately raised his arms to block it, concentrating his barrier there.
But he was knocked back in the end and there was blood that dripped down his arms.
Even though he had used his barrier to protect himself, the trident of the lizardman had cut right through his barrier.
The three of them were back in their original position, but this time…the lizardman had moved.
Seeing this, the young man with the barrier said, "If you two don't fight for real, we won't be able to win."
The other two revealed grim looks, but they realized that he was right.
If they kept holding back, they might all die here.
So there was a burst of energy that suddenly came from the two of them.
The young man with the barrier gave a nod before turning back to the lizardman, but he found that the lizardman was gone.
When he looked around, he found that the lizardman was already to his side, aiming his trident at him.
This speed…was something else.
He knew that he wouldn't be able to fully block the attack of the lizardman, so instead of facing it head on, he moved a bit to the side. He was planning on parrying this attack so that he could attack the lizardman back.
After moving to the side, he punched at the lizardman's trident while spinning his arm.
He was planning on using the barrier and the spin to deflect this trident.
But before he could…the lizardman suddenly started moving faster.
It was as if the lizardman had been hiding its power and was just using it at the last second.
The trident was just too fast for him to keep up with to parry, so he had no choice but to release his full barrier to protect himself.
The trident suddenly went right past his arm and stabbed him right in the chest, sending him flying.
If it wasn't for the barrier that he had gathered, there might be a hole in him right now. exclusive-content-MvLeMpYr
But the impact had been more than enough to hurt him, causing him to spit out a large mouthful of blood.
At the same time, the impact had caught the other two who had been behind him, sending them all flying.
They were sent flying to the entrance of this room behind them, falling to the ground together.
Seeing the condition that the young man with the barrier was in, the other two looked at each other before grabbing him and turning to run.
They knew that they wouldn't be able to block the attacks of the lizardman without him, so if they kept trying to fight this lizardman, there was only death waiting for them.
In that case, there was no reason for them to keep fighting this lizardman.
Even if it meant giving up these points, it was more important to keep their lives.
As he was being dragged away, the young man with the barrier was looking at the lizardman.
The lizardman was looking at his own trident with a confused look, almost as if he couldn't understand how he had suddenly used that much power.
But why would this lizardman be confused?
That was his last thought as he was dragged out of the room.
