Chapter 309 Water
Kyle exploded forward.
The chameleon immediately reacted by shooting its tongue at him.
BANG!
The only thing Kyle could do to defend himself against the tongue was to block it with his hammer.
From such a close distance, any kind of dodging would be too late.
Before the commands of Kyle’s brain even entered his limbs, the tongue would have already crossed 75% of its way to him.
At most, he could move his arms a bit.
As soon as Kyle was hit by the tongue, he flew back.
CRRRR!
However, Kyle’s control over his Soul still allowed him to stick to the ceiling.
Yet, due to the immense force, Kyle’s Soul essentially tore crevices into the ceiling.
Of course, such a stunt also drained a lot of his Ether.
BANG!
As the tongue lost most of its force, Kyle pushed it to the side, essentially turning it limp.
The next moment, Kyle unleashed a ton of techniques and hit the tongue again with his hammer.
The tongue flew to the side, and the chameleon tried to pull it back.
Yet, it wasn’t that easy.
If it pulled its tongue back too quickly, the force moving it to the side would make the tongue slap the chameleon’s body.
Kyle used this opportunity to charge forward.
As a reaction, the chameleon moved back, tearing the ceiling apart as its limbs rapidly created new holds.
Kyle quickly gained ground.
The chameleon was usually far faster, but on the ceiling, it couldn’t move efficiently.
Since Kyle had a powerful Soul, he could stick to the ceiling and move at his usual speed.
The speed difference was gone.
Sadly…
The tongue entered back into the chameleon’s mouth when Kyle was just five meters away.
From this distance, Kyle wouldn’t even be able to react if it fired.
Whatever it aimed at, it would hit.
This was the pivotal moment.
Everything depended on Kyle’s action.
If he got hit, he would die.
If his hammer got hit, he would lose all the progress he had made until now.
He couldn’t evade since he was too slow. Even if he jumped to the side, the chameleon would just follow him and adjust the trajectory of its tongue.
As Kyle took one last step, the chameleon was ready to fire.
When Kyle’s right foot hit the ceiling, Fire Ether left it.
BANG!
Four explosions of fire occurred beneath the chameleon’s feet, destroying the stones it was grabbing onto.
At the same time, Kyle ducked.
The tongue fired.
The chameleon’s body slowly started to fall.
The tongue missed.
It barely passed above Kyle’s body, tearing the clothing on his back into pieces as well as filling his skin with abrasions.
BANG!
Kyle violently shoved his hammer upward, throwing the tongue into the distance.
The force made the chameleon’s body spin.
Metallic spears came out of the tongue, but Kyle wasn’t even close to it anymore.
BANG!
Kyle exploded off the ceiling, shooting right towards the falling chameleon.
The chameleon couldn’t control its fall anymore.
In a panic, it unleashed its water ability again, but there was no point to it since Kyle wasn’t even touching anything right now.
He quickly caught up to the chameleon.
BANG!
Kyle used several Boosts on his hammer, further increasing its speed and power.
At the same time, Metal Ether coated its pick.
The hammer hit the chameleon’s back.
BOOOOOM!
Blood exploded out of the chameleon’s back as its scaly hide broke.
Its body was definitely not as resilient as its tongue.
Yet, Kyle only managed to create a small fracture in the chameleon’s back.
Its spine was not broken, and in total, this injury couldn’t even be considered heavy.
However…
BANG!
The chameleon’s body was launched towards the ground at incredible speeds.
At the same time, due to the counter force, Kyle stopped in midair.
BANG!
A gigantic explosion of water occurred as the chameleon was launched through the surface of the lake like a meteorite.
The water coated Kyle’s entire body as he looked downward with narrowed eyes.
In the air, he quickly used his Soul to change his positioning.
It was almost like Kyle was standing upside down in the air, ready to strike.
BANG!
Three quick Boosts came out of Kyle’s feet, shooting him towards the lake like a missile.
At that moment, the chameleon shot out of the lake again.
Its instincts screamed at it.
The water was dangerous!
Yet, just when the chameleon came out of the water, it came face to face with Kyle.
All kinds of Ether covered Kyle’s hammer, and he struck forward.
The flat side of Kyle’s hammer hit the chameleon’s head.
BOOOOOOOM!
The impact shoved the chameleon deep into the lake.
At the same time, its brain was shaken severely, confusing it.
It couldn’t find out where up and down were, and it was just flailing around for a short moment.
But then, it regained its faculties.
BANG!
At that moment, an Arrowana buried itself into the chameleon’s body.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Three more Arrowanas shot into the chameleon’s body. None of the injuries were severe enough to kill it, but they were already more significant than what Kyle had achieved.
In a panic, the chameleon rapidly kicked the water, its powerful legs creating explosions with every movement.
It shot out of the water again.
BOOOOOM!
Just to be hit by Kyle’s hammer again.
Once more, the chameleon was pushed into the underwater domain of the Arrowanas.
The Arrowanas were not stupid.
They knew that this was the predator that had hunted them for the past years.
This was their shot at getting rid of it, once and for all!
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Three more Arrowanas buried themselves into the chameleon’s body.
CRACK!
At that moment, metal spears appeared all over the chameleon’s body, killing all the Arrowanas.
It looked up and saw Kyle standing on top of the surface, looking back.
The chameleon shot to the side.
More Arrowanas appeared, and they chased after it.
Kyle ran after the chameleon, but they were no longer on the ceiling.
With beings of their level, water’s inertia didn’t matter anymore.
The chameleon jumped out of the water at almost the same speed as if it had jumped off a stone.
Kyle couldn’t reach it in time.
