[Energy barrier 100% deployed . The battlesuit’s functions have been brought down 20 . 8% because of water pressure . Movement will feel a little unnatural . ]
Level S battlesuit .
Even though it has been configured according to the environment, he is 2000m into the water . Cha Jun Sung isn’t a fish . Of course there are restrictions .
The only proper thing Cha Jun Sung purchased in the level S store is his battlesuit . He only looked at the level S support gear in awe because he didn’t have enough points .
He lost what he had, so the only difference from other Rankers is his battlesuit .
‘Heavy . ’
That was the first feeling Cha Jun Sung had when he left Albatrus .
His energy was consumed faster than normal as well .
It’s because he’s maintaining the energy barrier at 100% .
This is the only way to resolve the issue of water pressure . 20% was taken off, so he can only show 80% of his true abilities .
[You can last 1 hour with the air from your oxygen tank . ]
[It is a compressed oxygen tank, but it was measured on the standard of normal breathing volume . So as an aftermath of battle, he will run out of breath more quickly . ]
“1 hour? It won’t take even 30 minutes . Don’t worry and just watch . ”
Kyak!
Penomina detected Cha Jun Sung’s presence .
However, it did not approach him .
Rather, it kept watching the Albatrus behind him and kept getting further away .
[View radius! Sound wave mode!]
Because it is inside the ocean, his heat detection and infrared ray detection don’t pick up Penomina’s movement easily .
[Overload, are you okay?]
[Other than my body feeling a little heavy, it’s generally pretty okay . ]
Penomina is swimming 2km outside .
That is definitely an invitation .
It is an invitation to come and try catching it .
[I’ll follow it . ]
[It’s too dangerous . It could be a trap . If we focus an attack of hydraulic guns and hydraulic impact guns, even the Penomina wouldn’t be able to withstand it . ]
He collected basic information about Penomina .
He can kill it now .
[It’s okay . Even if it’s a trap, it won’t be like I can’t get out of it . An opponent like that is perfect to start my exploration of the underwater world in . ]
Cha Jun Sung had underwater battle in mind when he first boarded the Albatrus . He hadn’t interfered until now because the opponent had been too weak .
Underwater battle is only doable if it is up to standard . He can’t open the hatch and go out for lower level mutants .
[The Penomina will completely run away if the Albatrus moves, so we will leave the hydraulic guns loaded . ]
Bang!
Cha Jun Sung turned the Overbooster on .
His body shoots through the ocean .
The Penomina must have thought it succeeded in luring him because it stopped once the Albatrus was only slightly visible .
It thought that this was a distance it could run away in .
Cha Jun Sung threw his body into the mouth . He jabbed Hades forward and adjusted the Overbooster to speed ahead .
It was so intense seawater around him whirled and became a tornado .
The stupid Penomina swallowed the tornado .
Penomina’s flesh ripped up and Cha Jun Sung got out .
He went in through the mouth, but he’s not sure whether he came out through its neck or the back of its head . The configuration of its body is very different from not just humans but ordinary mutants as well .
But there must be damage when seeing the blood come out .
Kyak!
A scream .
It is a scream full of pain .
Attacking first is important in a battle .
The win could be determined with that first hit if the enemy is caught off guard .
The Penomina struggles and dozens of thin and thick tentacles wave around . He can’t tell whether they’re trying to wrap around him, hit him, or go through him .
He brought Hades up .
Is it because they are underwater?
A clear vacuum with a blue light cuts the tentacle coming at him from the front in half .
Cha Jun Sung used the time while the tentacle was being cut to try and attack, but the Penomina isn’t just watching .
Bang!
A pillar thicker than the battlesuit hit Cha Jun Sung’s back .
It collided with a repulsive force everywhere because of the water .
Cha Jun Sung fell onto a rock with bizarre coral reef and clams stuck everywhere . As soon as he fell, he moved his body to the side .
He doesn’t know when it followed him, but the Penomina threw its tentacles down on him . The hard rock was destroyed with one hit, and momentarily made the water white .
Stealthy Cha Jun Sung shoots his reinforced rifle from amongst the debris .
He can’t see, but he’s using the sonic mode to see the Penomina . It is the same for the Penomina as well .
Marine life have different senses from land creatures .
The two of them went back and forth with attacks from inside the white debris .
‘Other than the water pressure, it’s similar to fighting in the air . It’s important to get tips . ’
He could even feel a single finger moving .
There isn’t anywhere to put his feet down, so he needs to depend on the booster for balance .
‘It’s slow and frustrating . ’
He needs to get used to this environment quickly .
The restriction on his battlesuit is 20%, but it isn’t the kind of thing that can be decided with a simple figure .
This is a level 7 .
It seems that he will have to use all his power when fighting a level 8 .
It is an environment in which he gets weaker and his opponent gets stronger .
‘It looks like I won’t get to even lay a hand on Levadan even after killing all the Disasters on land . It’d be a problem even finding it without the Albatrus or some other level S weapon . ’
He saw Black Demon, White Empress, and Cruel King in person .
Black Demon in particular showed power that really made him feel that he is a level 9 .
He should be given an advantage while fighting a monster like that, but to have a handicap?
He could see his death just thinking about it .
Papat!
Cha Jun Sung stepped on the ground and soared up .
A tentacle follows behind him . As he progresses, he grows more accustomed to the environment .
The Penomina’s pattern is extremely simple .
It uses its tentacles or occasionally sprays a strange liquid .
It seems like the poison that Sea General was talking about . The Penomina does what it wants, wiping it and spraying it .
[I was just watching without saying anything, but he hasn’t been able to kill it even after 30 minutes . ]
“I was playing . ”
He is going to end it . About half of it really was play .
Killing it is one thing, but this kind of opponent will help him for the real fight .
‘Level B advancement… 50 million . ’
Cha Jun Sung goes toward the Penomina’s face .
Jellyfish and octopus have vitality . They live for some amount of time even after they have been cut up into pieces .
If the Penomina is in that category, it is better for him to be careful to the end .
Kyak!
When Cha Jun Sung was ripping up the Penomina’s face, he could hear a sound similar to something dying from his side .
Cha Jun Sung turned his head .
A tentacle filled his view .
“Of course . It didn’t make sense that one of these was worth 50 million . ”
Papapat!
An attack of something like a spear goes at Cha Jun Sung’s body .
He used the Overbooster and avoided it with minimal movement .
2 Penominas .
He had been expecting that this might happen .
[You have 25 minutes left . ]
Oxygen for him to breathe .
He hasn’t used the oxygen at a faster rate because the opponent isn’t too difficult and his breath didn’t get shorter .
“Alright . I’ll eat it gratefully . ”
The points would have been divided up 1/n if he had been on the Albatrus, but he had come out .
If he kills them, he can take all the points for a level 7 for himself .
And that’s two of them .
He won’t be able to do this too often because it would be a disservice to the others .
He’ll do it whenever he can . Including this time .
