Chapter 480 Seismic-Wave's Uncontrollable Power
"I am doing my best!" Richard shouted as he threw another canister into his inventory and took out another empty one. He immediately submerged it into the water and watched with trembling lips as it got filled with water slowly.
The Ghost gritted his teeth and glanced at the bluish water, \'It doesn\'t look very special except it is very clear… Can this really bring me back to life?\'
"What are you daydreaming for?!" Richard shouted as he took another canister from his inventory and tossed it over to the Ghost.
"?" The Ghost caught it and looked at Richard with a frown.
"What are you waiting for?! Fill the canister!"
"Oh." The Ghost floated towards the fountain and submerged the canister into the fountain. However, then something spectacular happened. After his hands went below the water\'s surface, they started growing flesh!
"W-What?!" He screamed out of shock and suddenly started losing his ability to float!
Splash!
He fell straight into the fountain and got completely submerged in the water.
"What the heck?" Richard covered his face as the water splashed in his direction. His shirt and pants got drenched.
"What the hell are you doing?!" He shouted as he tried to pull the Ghost out of the water. However, his hand suddenly stopped as he saw the incredible scene happening underwater!
…
Several floors above them.
CRASH!
WHAM!
"Rgh…" Isaac crashed through a solid concrete wall.
"Rah!" Baba Yaga lunged towards him with her long nails cutting through the wall like it was made of molten butter.
"Phew…" Isaac aimed and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The bullet brushed past Baba Yaga\'s cheek as she slightly tilted her head to the right. Immediately after, she accelerated and appeared before him.
She raised her hands, and the shoulder twitched slightly.
As Isaac saw the twitch of her shoulder, he immediately jumped backward and saw the two hands landing on the floor, destroying it effortlessly.
After the large hole emerged from the floor, Baba Yaga jumped over it and rushed after Isaac with her fierce crimson eyes emitting bloodlust.
Whoosh!
"?!" Isaac whipped his head to the side and saw a kick nearing his abdomen. He quickly put his gun as a block, but Baba Yaga\'s kick had enough strength to send him flying!
CRASH!
He crashed through another concrete wall, and his HP slowly fluctuated before dropping slightly.
[-120 HP]
[HP: 3050/3610 - Hexagon Armor Effect!]
Baba Yaga jumped through the wall and slashed with her nails. The sharp and dangerous nails cut straight through Isaac\'s shirt but didn\'t manage to cut through the next layer of defense.
"?!" She immediately stopped as she felt her hands trembling.
"Argh, damn." Isaac looked at his ragged shirt and jacket. They were part of his Camouflage Outfit. Now, his stomach was visible, and the hexagon-symboled armor covered his well-toned abs and muscles.
The armor was transparent and barely visible.
The nails didn\'t manage to cut through it, but Isaac still lost HP, and it was now below 3000.
"Tricks!" Baba Yaga screamed with her hoarse and painful-to-ears voice.
She extended her hand and lunged forwards. Then, she did a wide swing with her right arm, and after she did, the nails divided the walls in half!
Isaac\'s eyes widened, and he immediately bent down. The walls around him got cut in half. Then he felt a spark of danger heading his way.
After Baba Yaga\'s initial cut, she aimed the strength of her attack toward Isaac. Ten sharp nails were heading toward his way, and it looked like ten swords were flying toward him.
Isaac positioned the gun perfectly in front of him. The stock was resting against his shoulder, his left hand was holding the forestock area, and his right hand was near the trigger.
"Seismic-Wave!"
[Seismic-Wave Used!]
The barrel trembled, and suddenly a transparent whitish veil surrounded the entire hallway.
"Eh?" Baba Yaga looked at her nails, and they were trembling. Then, an enormous pressure engulfed her, and she knelt on the ground with shock flashing over her face.
The enormous pressure destroyed the floor, and everything on the second floor fell to the first floor. The first floor began crumbling apart as heavy items dropped on the floor.
"Argh!" Baba Yaga crashed to the first floor and couldn\'t stand up. The heavy pressure forced her down, and she could feel her bones slowly cracking.
"Ugh…" However, Isaac was also in the same position!
\'This is why I don\'t want to use too much power of Seismic-Wave…\' Isaac gritted his teeth as the heavy pressure forced his head to faceplant on the ground.
Meteor Descent wasn\'t his only skill that could injure its user. He couldn\'t control Seismic-Wave. Instead, only target it at something.
He used it against Baba Yaga back in the basement. However, he used a minuscule amount of power and only targeted her head. However, he knew it wouldn\'t help if he used it now. Therefore, he targeted the Seismic-Wave to the entire second floor.
Seismic-Wave was an incredibly valuable skill to have. However, when used in closed spaces, it was dangerous to be used. Therefore, Isaac almost never used it inside the building or in alleyways. But now, he did.
There was a reason for it.
The Seismic-Wave lasts one minute when used with its full power. That would give Richard and the Ghost an extra minute to fetch the fountain of life\'s water.
\'Hurry up!\' Isaac screamed as his face got buried in the floor.
"Krghgghhgh!" Baba Yaga tried to stretch her nails towards Isaac. However, her nails began cracking suddenly!
"Ah!" She screamed and watched as her nails trembled under the heavy pressure and cracked. Her left hand\'s nails and two of her right hand\'s nails cracked.
"Noooooo!"
After a painful wait, the heavy pressure faded away, and Baba Yaga immediately ran after Isaac with a hateful look.
"Bastard!"
"Ugh…" Isaac climbed out of the large crater and heard loud thumping sounds nearing him.
He whipped around and saw a fist nearing his face. He put the sniper rifle as a block and managed to block the punch but had to take a step back.
"DIE!" Baba Yaga before couldn\'t use her fists because of her long nails. However, now that the left hand had no nails, she could use her fists again!
She immediately followed with a kick of her own. Her leg looked like a whip as it smashed against Isaac\'s abdomen!
"UGH!" Isaac tried to block the strike but couldn\'t do it in time and was sent flying across the hallway.
