Chapter 734 - Thailand Versus Taiwan V

The moment that Renyu released the Tsunami spell, she immediately softened her guard which is a great mistake. Ngu dived deeper into the sea and swam vigorously to Renyu' location. Ngu stabbed her spear towards Renyu as soon as the merfolk player relaxed.

Renyu did not immediately react as her muscles tensed up from using a high-class spell. The spear that Ngu wielded pierced the side of Renyu as the latter tried to evade but failed. Renyu then used a water curtain to block Ngu's view of her as she retreated a few meters away from the Naga player.

Ngu did not let this get to her and immediately dove back to the sea as she needed to ambush Renyu once more. Renyu managed to compose herself again but the injury that she sustained is still bleeding which she finds strange.

In myths, mermaids are immortal creatures that is said to be able to heal any type of wound dealt to them. In fact, there is even a story that you will become immortal if you eat the flesh of mermaid. Renyu knew this because mermaids have great vitality as long as they are in water and could heal from the most fatal wounds.

There have been stories of people capturing mermaids and eating their flesh in order to gain immortality, but they only died of poisoning. Mermaids are descendants of water and dark elementals that gained physical form.

Although the mermaids are not masterful in using darkness attribute magic, there bodies are made up of the dark element along with the water element. This is why mermaids can produce a special type of poison that can only be healed by their blood.

If the mermaids did not have this special type of poison, then they will not be able to fend off the terrors of the deep like krakens and scyllas. Ngu is also knowledgeable about merfolk poison which is why she is not getting near Renyu to the point where she could get scratched. She is masterfully using the range of her spear in order to damage Renyu.

Renyu also noticed this tactic of Ngu as the naga player only used thrusting attacks so far. Since Ngu knew that she will not be damaged by water attribute attacks, she is safely wearing Renyu down by chipping at her health slowly.

The material that is used to craft Ngu's spear is very rare as came from the bone of a deep see creature called the Deep Urchin. It is a monster that resembles an urchin with glossy spikes that are actually ten feet in height. They can only be found in the deepest parts of the ocean and seas of Pandemonium which is why only races that have water affinities know them.

Renyu also know of them, but she did not expect that a player would be able to get one as a spike from a Deep Urchin is very expensive. Even the elder merfolk has limited supplies of this material due to how dangerous the deep ocean and seas of Pandemonium are.

Also, Deep Urchins are found in the oceans and seas controlled by the Scylla. The fact that a Naga got hold of a spike is shocking to say the least. Deep Urchin spikes are rare item because of their property that will immediately inflict bleed upon being poked.

Renyu thought that immediate status ailments are not possible, but she is wrong. She cannot even heal the wound that she got from being poked. Her special healing abilities in water is now rendered ineffective due to a troublesome item.

This just proves that there being of a special race alone is not enough to dominate Pandemonium. Items are very crucial to a game which is why players often complain about whales when they spend money for the best gears. They can complain but such is the way of games that have monetary exchange and Pandemonium is no different.

Nishui noticed that Renyu is injured and is not healing immediately despite being in water. In that split second of looking away and being distracted, Xinthri managed to close the gap between them. Xinthri's fist glowed in a dark purple color almost like lightning and smashed his fist towards Nishui's abdomen.

Nishui did not expect such a heavy blow like that as Xinthri never used a powerful hit like that earlier. Nishui got flung away for about ten to fifteen meters. Nishui's team members saw this and came rushing to his aid, but Xinthri will not let them off the hook easily.

Nishui witnessed as his team members get pummeled to the ground by the intense energy fists that Xinthri used. Coupled with the support of Xinthri's other team members, one of the three members of the Taiwan national team got eliminated. Nishui forced himself to stand up, but his body is badly damaged as his abdomen caved in completely with that strike.

Nishui debated if he needed to use his ultimate skill, but Renyu warned him to not use it in the first half of the second event. If the other national team players witness his skill, then they might easily find a way to counter it in the first half.

Renyu also noticed that one of her team members is eliminated and know that they will not win the confrontation. She decided that it is better to actually find another area in the east part of the map than all of them getting eliminated here.

She raised her trident, and it once again emitted a song that is beautiful to the ears. Ngu noticed that Renyu's behavior has shifted, and she seems to be trying to escape. She tried to follow her, but the wavs became turbulent once again.

The next thing that Ngu noticed is that Renyu is riding a wave towards the shore. This wave then crashed to the shore and the carried all the remaining Taiwan national team members away.. They successfully escaped but are badly injured.
