Chapter 918: Lord of the Storm
Zhang Yi blocked the attack from the sea beast horde.
This caused the smile on Cadillus's face to fade considerably.
"To think there's actually someone like this?"
He couldn't imagine that his attack would be blocked by a Delta-level superhuman.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yi was also feeling the pressure from an Epsilon-level superhuman.
Cadillus could make these sea beasts attack without regard for their lives.
But Zhang Yi had no intention of risking his life against them.
He planned to escape.
"Goodbye, if fate allows we'll meet again! Good luck to you."Without hesitation, Zhang Yi turned and ran decisively in the opposite direction from Cadillus.
This move of his obviously caught Cadillus's attention.
The corner of his mouth curled into a cruel smile.
"It seems the one who destroyed the Copernicus was you!"
In the sea, the beast horde surged violently, those mysterious and powerful sea beasts roaring as they launched attacks at Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi paid no attention to the dense attacks, pushing his escape to maximum speed.
However, what he didn't expect was that Cadillus completely abandoned the Blue Rose and came chasing after him.
Cadillus dove into the seabed, moving through the water at an unbelievable speed.
【Water Walker】.
As a superhuman capable of commanding all marine life, he could also manipulate seawater, and his speed underwater was countless times faster than on land!
Zhang Yi's expression turned serious.
There were too many sea beasts around him, with various attacks flying his way, preventing him from opening a Dimensional Gate to escape.
And relying solely on his Skywalk ability to fly, he would soon be caught by Cadillus.
Zhang Yi raised his right hand, firing micro-torpedoes to create chaos.
But before the energy from the underwater explosions could spread out, Cadillus simply clenched his hands, causing the explosions to be completely enveloped by a mass of seawater and dissipate into nothingness!
Cadillus burst out from the seawater like a swordfish, shooting into the air with a long cry, then casually landing on the head of a giant sea beast.
A gel-like liquid appeared in his hands, rapidly expanding and growing larger.
As Cadillus gave a sudden shake of his hands, the gel transformed into countless droplets that shot rapidly toward Zhang Yi!
Zhang Yi, suspended in mid-air, felt this astonishing pressure and immediately deployed his Dimensional Gate for defense.
But in just an instant, he felt an intense tearing sensation.
That gel-like liquid was cutting through his space like knives.
"Is this the difference in power level?"
Zhang Yi's eyes began to show gravity.
The last time he faced such a huge crisis was during his confrontation with Yuan Kongye.
Only back then, he knew he had the capital to drag things out.
But here and now, even though he had become the top expert in the Jiangnan Region.
His opponent was also an Epsilon-level superhuman with more combat experience and even greater strength!
Cadillus put his hands on his hips, smiling to reveal a mouthful of white teeth.
"Oh ho~ I didn't expect you to be so tenacious. I can't help but look at you with greater respect!"
"However, you'd better obediently surrender now so I can take you back to complete my mission. Otherwise, if I accidentally really kill you, that would be an outcome nobody wants to see!"
He shrugged, putting on an expression of helplessness.
But in his eyes, there was clearly the teasing of a cat playing with a mouse.
Zhang Yi narrowed his eyes.
He still had one final card he hadn't played yet.
That was Compound Five.
He knew it was a drug that could stimulate human potential.
If that description was accurate, after using it, he could temporarily achieve a massive boost in power, reaching the Epsilon level.
In that case, even Cadillus wouldn't be able to stop him from escaping.
It was somewhat amusing - although Zhang Yi had always been resistant to Blizzard City's chemical drugs.
This thing could truly play a crucial role at critical moments.
Zhang Yi wasn't willing to entrust his life to someone else's hands.
He took out Compound Five from his Dimensional Space.
Just as he was about to take it, a sharp whistling sound suddenly reached his ears.
From the eastern horizon, a black light flashed by like a meteor.
But this meteor didn't disappear, instead rapidly approaching this area, growing larger and larger!
The whistling sound was coming from that mysterious object.
Cadillus's expression also turned serious when he saw that thing.
Zhang Yi looked at the black object with some astonishment.
The reason for his astonishment was that he didn't know what it was.
To the naked eye, it looked like a black top spinning rapidly as it flew toward this sea area.
In the blink of an eye, the black top arrived here.
Though calling it a top might be misleading - it was simply too massive, even larger than any sea beast that had appeared in this sea area!
"Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!"
The black top rapidly skimmed across the sea surface.
In an instant, countless sea beasts were directly ground into dust!
Large chunks of flesh and blood flew everywhere, like a meat grinder charging into a pigpen.
Zhang Yi didn't even have time to react.
The enormous black top broke through the sea beast encirclement, then its spinning speed rapidly decreased.
Finally landing in front of him with a "BOOM!!"
Seawater splashed up hundreds of meters, almost splashing onto Zhang Yi's face.
Only then did he get a clear look at what it was.
A sea turtle.
An enormous sea turtle, several times larger than the Blue Rose, a giant black sea turtle appeared between Zhang Yi and Cadillus.
"You dare to attack someone from my Huaxu Kingdom. Lord of the Ocean, aren't you overreaching?"
The giant turtle actually spoke with a deep voice, in perfect Mandarin.
Only then did Zhang Yi understand.
The one who had come to support him was an Epsilon-level superhuman from Huaxu Kingdom!
Huaxu Kingdom's Second Theater Command, the East Sea Region possessed combat power second only to the headquarters Shengjing Region, and had the strongest navy.
They indeed also had Epsilon-level powerhouses.
When Cadillus saw the giant turtle, the smile disappeared from his face, his gaze clearly becoming much more serious.
"Big turtle, I didn't expect you to come too!"
Zhang Yi was still feeling shocked by the arrival of two Epsilon-level powerhouses.
Meanwhile, the Blue Rose had already sailed near him, taking shelter behind the giant sea turtle.
Linghu Feixue's face had maintained its composure throughout.
She looked at Zhang Yi and said, "When I came here, I already encountered Cadillus, so I knew he had been searching for your location."
"Therefore, I contacted the East Sea Region in advance and asked them to send reinforcements."
She glanced at the mountain-like giant black sea turtle ahead.
"He is one of the Four Spirits of the East Sea Region Navy, Xuanwu!"
