Chapter 522: Confrontation

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

A bright flame shot out of the seemingly ordinary shotgun.

It burst out very forcefully and shattered the Blade Demon's abdomen!

Demons from the Abyss had always been known for their superior constitution, but after being deprived of its Legendary abilities, its constitution clearly appeared to be weakened.

If it had been at full power, then even this shotgun that was the "condensation" of the 'Shas wisdom" wouldn't be able to injure the Legend Demon.

But the outcome was different now.

As the powerful flames dissipated, Marvin calmly landed on the hill.

As for the Demon, it was howling from its position on the ground, face up.

Its abdomen was in a pitiful state, and it looked like there was a hole going all the way through!

Moreover, there were still some white flames continuously burning in the wound.

The wound was still worsening!

Marvin raised an eyebrow. This was far better than he had expected.

It seemed like Constantine hadn't been exaggerating. A Battle Gunner's strongest advantage was the ability to change bullets to handle different enemies. It thus had a superior advantage when properly prepared for a target.

Marvin rarely used that shotgun because it was designed for use against the Abyss' Demons.

As a relatively amateurish Battle Gunner, Marvin was relying heavily on Constantine's weapons. The Demon Hunter himself was a genuine moving arsenal. Not mentioning Brilliant Purple, which he had half-gifted half-sold to Marvin, the firearms on his body were frightening.

He had firearms against Demons, firearms against Devils, firearms specialized to restrain Celestial lifeforms, and firearms for killing Evil Spirits. In short, the Demon Hunter had specialized equipment for use against all common evil forces.

This was also the reason why Constantine could move unhindered in Feinan and become famous as the Demon Hunter. He perfectly combined his Night Walker and Battle Gunner classes to display Battle Gunner's peak characteristics.

Thanks to Constantine, Marvin could also be considered well-off and thus could adapt to his enemy.

That weapon definitely caught the Blade Demon unprepared.

Even that shotgun had a very significant disadvantage: It could only shoot once in a short period of time, or else the barrel would explode. This was also why the Battle Gunner class wasn't particularly powerful despite having such a strong advantage. But even so, Marvin's goal had already been accomplished.

He put away the shotgun and rushed to fight the Blade Demon!

Of course, he didn't really want to wrestle with the Demon. He went to check the Blade Demon's injury!

Marvin was very satisfied with the effects of the shotgun.

The Blade Demon was greatly weakened. Its speed had originally been inferior to Marvin's, but there were signs of stiffness and slowness after that shot.

Marvin noticed that a sizzling sound was coming out of the hole in its abdomen.

The bullets were said to have been mixed with a dense high-purity holy water which had a great effect on Demons.

Thus, Marvin could do anything he wanted.

He instantly took out the Hunting Knife and started fiercely attacking!

At the bottom of the hill, the two shadows were entangled.

Although the Legend laws were ineffective, Marvin still had Godly Dexterity!

And his Night Walker class had a large number of powerful skills, which would make it a lot easier for Marvin. After catching his enemy off guard and inflicting such a serious injury, Marvin had an overwhelming advantage.

He didn't hurry to deal a fatal blow, though.

Marvin knew that this kind of enemy was the most troublesome. It didn't speak much and simply attacked crazily, trying to kill Marvin.

Marvin chose to circle around it.

The longer it took, the more advantageous the situation would be for him.

If he rashly rushed up for a desperate attack, it might lead to his advantage being ruined.

Moreover, his Hunting Knife didn't look very sharp. Marvin felt it would be rather difficult to kill the Blade Demon with it.

He was waiting for the shotgun to cool down.

Relying on his Demon Hunter Steps and Godly Dexterity, he kept the Blade Demon disoriented and confused.

Blade Demons typically fought by relying on their superior strength, so naturally, its footwork wasn't as good as Marvin's.

The fight was stalled for five minutes.

Although this didn't seem long, only experts who had been through this kind of battle knew how much stamina this consumed.

Both of them were equally matched killers. The Blade Demon had an absolute advantage in strength, and meeting force with force consumed a lot of stamina.

On the other hand, the Demon was seriously hurt.

Sure enough, after some time, the Blade Demon became more sluggish.

Marvin felt pleased, continuing with his strategy while keeping his guard up. He couldn't let that Demon go free.

He had to find out from the Demon who was after him!

Although it was most likely Demon Lord Balkh, Marvin wanted to confirm it.

Just when this thought popped into Marvin's head, something happened!

The Blade Demon suddenly roared, its body rapidly expanding!

It doubled in size from its original two meters!

And in the process, the wound in its abdomen also began to quickly heal.

Its arms became longer and the blades on the forearms became sharper!

'No good!'

Marvin didn't expect that guy to have such a skill.

He had fought quite a few Demons in his past life, but he wasn't as knowledgeable about them as he was with Evil Spirits and Devils. Blade Demons were one of the most suitable Demon races for becoming Assassins. Marvin hadn't really gone head to head with that race in the game.

The enemy's suddenly action put Marvin in a bit of a bind.

Because when it happened, the two of them were too close to each other!

The Blade Demon's strange, long arms were like two huge guillotines ruthlessly slashing down!

Marvin simply couldn't dodge properly. The other side's move was too fast, and Marvin had been approaching for a strike when it transformed.

At that moment, he could only move backward to get as much space as possible.

But the Blade Demon didn't easily let go. It stepped forward to completely restrict Marvin's space.

The attack slashed down ruthlessly and Marvin could only helplessly block with the Hunting Knife.

He prepared to use Diamond Shape if he didn't manage to deflect the blow. After all, the Hunting Knife's quality seemed quite terrible.

But he was shocked by what happened next!

The Blade Demon's forearm collided with the curved dagger, and a cracking sound echoed. The sharp tip of the Blade Demon's arm blade shockingly broke!

Marvin felt the intense impact from the clash, and if not for bracing his legs to withstand this power, he would have already fallen down.

As for that Hunting Knife, it was completely unscathed.

Marvin's eyes were wide open.

The Blade Demon fell backward in pain!
