Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1648 I have it covered

*Huuuuuuuuu...*

The sound that echoed throughout the water was different from a roar. However, it definitely reached far and beyond. As more monsters were born, more of those sounds came from them. Naturally, they were connected to whatever formation was controlling them. It meant that they could tell exactly where all the cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits in this Dimensional Realm were located.

In various locations at the same time, Kentucky, Rean, and Roan activated the same skill. One must remember that Kentucky could also use Light Element.

'Life Style, First Form, Enhancement!'

They quickly touched their group members, increasing their strength straight away. Roan's group wasn't surprised since they received this help from Roan in the first battle. However, Kentucky and Rean's group were experiencing it for the first time. Well, they were definitely happy that such a skill existed, and it was helping them.

On Rean's side, he used the formation to feed Erla with most of the Divine Energy. "Erla, you're an aquatic demon beast, so use your speed underwater to keep the monsters a few meters away from us. It shouldn't be too hard with my Enhancement skill and the battle formation's Divine Energy flow. Just be careful to not leave this area since other areas have a lot more of them."

Erla nodded in response. "No problem. Everyone, on my back!"

Immediately, she activated her own movement skill. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Noᴠelꜰire.nᴇt

'Way of the Sea Currents!'

Water Element gathered around Erla's body before it blended with the water and her fins. Something that looked like a current of water was soon created in front of her, allowing her body to move much faster than she already was in that environment. Let alone the fact she was in the Void Tempering Realm. Although she was only in the Initial Stage, she could still use a small bit of Space Power to support her effort. The currents created by her only worked on her body. As soon as she passed through it, the current disappeared, making it impossible for the monsters behind them to use it to their advantage.

Rean was very satisfied with the result. Those monsters had multiple forms, but they were all aquatic types. It was really good that he had someone suited for the same environment to carry him around.

Habac then warned Erla, "Don't let your guard down. These monsters don't just attack physically. They also use simple Water Element skills. They'll definitely start to rely on it if they stay too long on our tail." Habac was excited. Unlike the first time he came here, his group really seemed to have a chance to succeed.

Sure enough, having someone with experience helped a lot.

Suddenly, some of the monsters following Rean's group began to gather Divine Energy around themselves.

"Just defend!" Rean ordered. "Trying to defeat them will consume a lot more Divine Energy than simply stalling them behind. I can defend against the attacks that get close to us. You two focus on stopping the attacks with your ranged skills at their origin."

'Death Style, First Defensive Form, Reversive Arcs!'

Rean's hair then changed into a black and white color as his sword danced in the water. Countless strands of Dark and Light Element then came from the tip of his Black Star, enveloping the entire group.

'Death Style, Sword Intent!'

Sword Intent was another type of energy. It had no end and had no use for Divine Energy. With that said, it wouldn't make Rean feel tired. Above all, the Reversive Arcs were created through the movements of his sword, so their defensive power increased even more. It killed two birds with one stone, reducing his reliance on Divine Energy while increasing his defensive power.

On the other hand, Min and Habac weren't any slower. With their surroundings protected, they could focus entirely on the long-range offensive.

'Thunder Line!'

Min had Lightning Affinity, which he usually used with Water Element as support. Then again, there was no lack of water here. With his Divine Energy, he was able to redirect his lightning attack in a straight line. It went without saying that Min aimed straight at the monsters who were preparing to launch their skills at their group.

In Habac's case, the perk of his race showed its efficacy straight away. He was able to gather more Divine Energy than Min, even though he was one stage below in cultivation.

'Makeshift Whirlwind!'

Following that, he used his Wind Affinity to create a whirlpool underwater right in the middle of another pack of monsters. He didn't aim at any of them in specific. In fact, his Makeshift Whirlwind wasn't that strong either, not being able to kill any of the monsters. However, that was more than enough to disrupt the monsters that were focusing on launching attacks in the direction of Rean's group.

*Zap, zap, zap, zap...*

*Shuaaaaaaaa.*

*Bang, bang, bang, bang...*

Just like that, their group began to circulate around the same area as the monsters followed them from behind. It was obvious that those monsters didn't have intelligence. Otherwise, they could have just divided into two groups and had one of the groups block Erla's path. Erla wasn't leaving that location, after all.

Rean couldn't help but smile with a satisfied expression, saying, "Min, Habac, it seems like you two understand the plan very well."

Min laughed in response. "Hahaha! Of course! I'm using one of my most basic attacks, Thunder Line. Its consumption of Divine Energy is rather low. I can keep at it for a very long time."

Habac nodded, saying, "The same goes for my Makeshift Whirlwind. It can be a strong attack if I wish it to be. However, I can control the power behind it so it only disrupts those monsters. I did a similar thing the last time I was here, so I'm thoroughly prepared this time around. I can also stay like this for quite a while."

Erla was the most satisfied one. "Well, I'm counting on you three. Although this is my environment, my Way of the Sea Currents does use quite a bit of Divine Energy, especially when I have to keep a specific distance from the monsters."

Rean nodded after hearing that. "That's why I'm redirecting most of our Divine Energy to you. You're the key to this resistance plan. We can't go too far away since it would attract even more of them, so keep it that way."

However, even though everything was going smoothly, Min couldn't help but ask, "Rean, this is good and all. However, our Divine Energy definitely won't last a week."

Rean smiled in response. "Don't worry. I have it covered."
