Chapter 262 Fighting the undead (6)
Shaka was surprised by how fast this lance was coming at him, but he was still able to react in time.
He swung The Penetrator out to smash this lance before stepping into the swing. He wanted to use this single swing to shatter both the lance and the person who was holding the lance.
It was just too bad that the demon was already prepared for this, so the demon suddenly jumped up over Shaka.
Once the demon was gone, all Shaka's swing hit was thin air.
When the demon was in the air, he condensed two black lances that he stabbed down at Shaka beneath him while shouting, "Die!"
Shaka knew that he was in danger, so he didn't hesitate to continue that swing. However, the swing didn't continue forward, but rather he twisted his body so that the swing went upwards to meet the two lances stabbing down at him.
The Penetrator was easily able to shatter the two lances, but the force caused Shaka to fall to the ground.
At the same time, the force of the swing launched the demon up into the air before he was able to land on the ground. The demon flipped in the air from being sent upwards with the force of this swing before landing not far away from Shaka.
Even though Shaka had been thrown down onto the ground, the demon didn't attack him again.
Instead, he just stood there with a confident look on his face as he said, "Well, now do you feel like surrendering?"
Shaka quickly got up off the ground and narrowed his eyes to look at the demon with a confused look.
The demon casually said, "You're not bad. As long as you swear your allegiance to my lord, I can spare your life."
Though when he said this, his eyes were actually on The Penetrator.
His real target was this strange magic weapon that Shaka used. If he was able to take Shaka back with him, he would be able to get more information on this magic weapon and they might even be able to reproduce it.
Though he didn't know that Shaka wasn't the owner of this weapon.
It was Zwein, who didn't actually know anything about the power of The Penetrator at all.
It was the system that had created The Penetrator in the first place and gave it its effect.
Shaka narrowed his eyes even more when he heard this before he said, "In your dreams. I would rather die than work for the demons."
The demon gave a shrug when he heard this before saying, "Well, if that's what you want."
With a wave of his hand, there was a black lance that appeared again.
However, the demon didn't make a move as he just stood there staring at Shaka. It was almost as if he was trying to intimidate him rather than cut him down.
Shaka felt insulted by this, but he didn't say a thing in response.
He just focused on the demon, making sure that he would be able to immediately recognize any movement from the demon.
Based on that clash just now, Shaka knew that he was completely outclassed by the demon in terms of physical prowess. The demon's physical capacities had suddenly exploded and now it even seemed like he was playing with him.
But how did this demon's physical prowess suddenly explode like this?
It was almost as if he had suddenly been injected with steroids.
Shaka was really tempted to just find a way to escape, but he knew that this wasn't possible.
So he started thinking of a way to distract the demon until he could cut it down.
But before he could put any plans in action, I suddenly shouted, "Stall him!"
Shaka and the demon both looked at me with confused looks. At the same time, everyone else who was here looked at me like I was crazy..
I was someone who was clearly a non-combatant and I was drawing attention to myself like this.
It was almost as if I was just asking to be killed by the undead around me.
But after Shaka looked carefully at me to see the serious look I had, he gave a nod in response.
With a sudden roar from him, there was a green light that suddenly appeared around Shaka.
This was the same green glow that he had released when he had fought with the Crow Gang back in Alandal City.
As soon as this green glow appeared, there was a strong breeze that appeared in this area. This strong breeze however didn't seem like it was affecting Shaka at all.
The moment that the demon saw this, he knitted his brows before saying, "You think that you can beat me with this cheap trick? This won't last long and once it expires, you will die!"
Shaka said with a confident look, "I'm not dead yet."
The demon's face twisted in anger when he heard this, but he didn't say anything else.
He just suddenly charged forward with the black lances in hand.
Shaka also didn't miss a beat as he charged forward with The Penetrator raised.
Instead of being outclassed this time, Shaka was able to keep pace with the demon once again even though the demon had been strengthened by something.
Then when it came to power, The Penetrator made up for it since The Penetrator was able to break through anything it hit.
It seemed like they were evenly matched at first, but the green glow that was around Shaka was also slowly fading away and he became slower and slower. It was clear that whatever power he had used to make himself faster was slowly wearing off.
The demon saw this and said with a confident look, "Your fake power is about to run out. Surrender now and I'll consider sparing you."
But Shaka didn't say anything as he fully focused on the fight.
Then when the green light was about to completely fade, the demon was about to land a blow on Shaka...when he suddenly stopped.
