(Chapter 46)

'... Damn... This is only a lake, huh?... What will I see under the water if I peek at the real ocean then?'

With only Primitive creatures on his sight, he ignored them and slowly descend to the crack.

That in no time, he reached the entrance of the crack with summoning the armor of Han Sen and slowly peek inside just to be confused again.

Because with his current sharp sight now, he can't still see the lowest part of the crack.

The crack is five kilometers in length and one kilometer wide with unknown kilometers depth.

If he is underwater, his normal three miles sight will be reduced to one fourth and will be back to half if he melded with the Mutant Arrow.

He swam to the center of the crack and imagine himself on the center of the biggest mouth of the creature that he can think of before he will be swallowed whole.

Since he can't feel fear or express it, his mind is working in calculative mode and concluded for his body to turn back and at least evolved the whips to (4 Stars) as his restrainer if the theorized size of the Super creature is much bigger than his mind's thought.

With his habit of not rushing things, he did that and saw the tensed two people on the shore.

"... Where is it darling?"

Asked by the curious Yang Manli while glancing at the lake.

"Relax, for now. I need the whip to be (4 Stars) as my restrainer for the said creature..."

"So how is it, brother Shyr?..."

Han Sen seconded the question, while his mind is ready to compare the Ethereal Loch to this Abysmal Depths.

"With that kind of big crack? There will be at least one for sure... So, let's get ready and obtain Geno Points as much as possible before I can complete the 3 whips..."

Yang Manli and Han Sen nodded and they helped Shyrveen to obtain Beast Souls of the treant.

Six days later, because they spread first and once got a Beast Soul each, one person needs to be a holder and two needs to be a hunter, for the three whips to be completed.

Within these days, Shyrveen gained most of them and Yang Manli was the second.

While Han Sen only gained half of the needed count for one whip, he checked his status while cursing at himself for having bad luck.

'... What a shitty luck I have... Pshh... But what a gained...'

'With brother Shyr on my side, the world is mine! I won't have to risk approaching creatures just to gain their Geno Points.'

Han Sen stared at Shyrveen and laughed in his mind, and only to received a rock to his face from Yang Manli's throwing and he looks at her face just to see her snarling at him, before hugging Shyrveen to be covered from his sight.

'...'

Han Sen shook his head and became serious.

"So, brother Shyr, time to move?"

"Yeah..."

Shyrveen nodded and stands up from sitting on the mattress and help Yang Manli to stand up to before putting the mattress into the inventory.

"I'll shoot an icicle from the lake to the air for you two to get ready so you won't waste time waiting for my resurfacing from the lake."

"Alright, darling. Be careful."

Yang Manli kissed him and warned him.

"I will."

Shyrveen dives and went back to the crack, then without further ado, he swam inside but suddenly felt multiple stares with an intention to eat him that made him stop for a second.

'... No... These stares are too low for Super creature... These are Mutants... I need to go deeper...'

Thirty minutes of diving down while maintaining his speed as he is cautious, he looked back and was confused for something.

'They didn't follow me?...'

Then the killing intent in the stares in his location changed into much intense.

'Wait... Is this it?... No... Sacred-Blood?... But... They didn't swarm or even attacked me... Then there's one for sure... Strong is being respected and its the unbreakable rule for these creatures... It must be in a deeper region...'

Another thirty minutes or so.

'How far is this goi- !!!'

He saw a very fast movement within his front that made him twists his body and changed direction and spread his ice flower buds.

And those buds exploded into countless flowers that have a size of one van and created multiple ice shields around him to use as obstacles to the creature's sight.

And he got away before he saw a big head of a sea serpent that thrice the size of the head that he saw from the underground cave, chewing on the ice flowers like candies.

'... Sea Serpent... Yeah, a fucking Mythological Sea Serpent Dragon... '

He cursed before spreading a five hundred cubic meters ice wall downwards before he felt the hit of the creature's head to the bottom part of his wall that push him upwards to the surface of the lake in a matter of a minute.

Yang Manli and Han Sen were chit chatting for more than one hour but suddenly felt a presence that made their body tense and looked at the lake hastily.

Yang Manli saw a glimpse of Shyrveen on top of the big ice cube and decided to cheer.

"Darling! Nice ice- Ehh!!!???"

But only for Han Sen to curse and dash towards her as he summoned the (4 Stars) armor, to push her out of the tail's path.

"Fuck! Manli!"

But Yang Manli wasn't that greenhorn while the danger is all around her and instantly summoned the (4 Stars) snake after hearing Han Sen's shout and kick Han Sen's stomach before he was covered completely by his armor and before she became incorporeal at the same time.

And at that time, the ground where she stands was destroyed and she subconsciously summoned the wings and went to fetch Han Sen that flew away from her kick and she flew just below the clouds.

She stops on midair and shook the body of Han Sen while grasping his armor.

"W-Wh-What's that!? Tell me now!? Based on your voices six days ago, I thought it's a bit stronger than the Sacred-Blood creature, but what the fuck is that!?"

Before pointed to the ground for where she was standing earlier, and now she can see how big the tail is.

"... That's the creature that we discovered from the Ethereal Loch, but what we found was a dead frozen corpse... That's the reason why your darling only wants to tell you about this once you achieved four maxed Geno Points..."

"Don't go around the bush! What kind of creature is that!?"

"... Haa... Super creature. The fifth and the beyond the Sacred-Blood stage... Now, drop me and I need to help brother Shyr... I don't know what kind of reaction or what you're thinking about this... But for now... Brother Shyr needs your help..."

Han Sen pinch a little harder to the fingers of Yang Manli to let him go.

Han Sen with the (4 Stars) armor started to shapeshift into Bloody Slayer and nose dive while clenching his fist and aiming at the body of the creature with the size of a small hill.

He knows that if he aimed at the head, he will miss.

But Shyrveen saw him and made a way for him to continue aiming at the head instead.

When Shyrveen was on the air with his five hundred cubic meters ice wall, he controls the ice to return back to the Mana state and used it to form a big hammer and swings it to the head of the creature.

It hits and the ice hammer shattered into two pieces but the creature only shook its head and scream at him.

With some ice shards around its body, Shyrveen controls the two big pieces and willed them to be ice chains and wrapped around the body and use the ice shards to cover the creature in an ice block.

The creature struggles and broke the ice into pieces again.

Shyrveen noticed a stare from his back from the sky and summoned the (4 Stars) whip and inserted his mana, he did what he did earlier but with Beast Soul this time.

He whipped it to shackle the head and pulls it down near the shore.

But this time, the iced whip is cracking slowly every second instead of being shattered instantly.

'The strength of this creature is monstrous like its size...'

Shyrveen noticed it and decided to create a big ice nail on top of the head before his whip will be destroyed.

Han Sen noticed it too and summoned the Beast Soul Whip to grab the head and pull it closer to the nail that's floating above its head.

The creature's head can't flail too much because of two opposing forces from it's below and above, and soon it felt its brain was smashed into the ground with its three times of its weight.

Han Sen knocks on the nail with his hammerhead ice right arm that has been covered by Shyrveen, once Han Sen was in his controllable range for the mana.

After smashing the nail with all of his might, Han Sen jumps away to the shore near Shyrveen and they exchanged Beast Souls.

Han Sen was in charge of using the iced whips to hold down the creature's head on the shore with his Bloody Slayer's strength.

And Shyrveen flew towards its eyes and willed the two iced short staves' end to be sharp and stabs it's left eye.

But Shyrveen was thrown back to the shore after the head was freed from the whips grasp.

Shyrveen can be seen sliding on the ground with crossed arms before his face with a thick layer of ice.

'... Tch... The stab is too shallow... What's sweety doing?...'

The reason why the head was escaped from the whips was because Han Sen saw its tail whipping onto him and jumps to dodge but the tails follow.

Han Sen gritted his teeth and recalled the whip and his Bloody Slayer to lessen his weight, just to dodge the incoming tail and used the whip again to swing his body out of the creature's plan to grab his body.

And Han Sen resummoned the Bloody Slayer as he hugs the outrageous size of the tail and exert his full force to squeeze it while he shouts after seeing Shyrveen was hit.

"BROTHER SHYR!"

Shyrveen controls the ice to grab Han Sen, which Han Sen let go of the tail once he felt the grab on his waist and before he will be swallowed by the creature.

Han Sen is using the whips to swing in between the body of the creature before using the Bloody Slayer's strength to punch at the body.

While Shyrveen is using the ice as his foot holder to jump while using his iced staves to stab at the gaps from the scales.

Soon, the water was stained with red, blood from the Super creature's wounds.

"Pull it into the forest! That thing might have a regeneration skill too once underwater!"

Shyrveen shouted while shooting icicles into the wounds that he created as he steps back to go inside the forest.

"Alright!"

Han Sen shouted back and swing his body to propel himself to the side of its head and punch to its right eye with Bloody Slayer's strength and recalled it after he was successful.

The creature felt so mad because it can't deal with heavy damage to the two ants before its eyes, and felt that it was like a toy for being played with.

After its scream from the punch on its eyes, it opens its jaw to grab Han Sen in midair but only to be enraged and followed the hateful flying human into the forest.

Shyrveen grabs Han Sen again not be swallowed again while flying.

Han Sen raised two middle fingers on the creature's face as he grins.

In the sky.

Yang Manli can be seen petrified in her place while watching the two small figures fighting the small hill creature.

From her perspective, it's more like two beetles against an elephant.

Her mind was stuck, nothing is running on her mind while her eyes are just following the two small figures and stared at the creature.

Then her eyes gots widen and she realized that her body is shaking from intense fear.

Her mind finally started to work again but it was the thing earlier about the time before she can react to the tail.

She realized that she only reacted to Han Sen's voice and not from the incoming tail of the creature.

Honestly, she didn't even saw a blur or a small figment of movement that the tail was already on its way towards her.

With it, her mind started to imagine what will happen to her in different scenarios, and these imaginations became her fear.

And that fear is started to consume her mind slowly.

But before she became insane completely, she heard a voice that shouting her beloved's name and saw, the time when Shyrveen was hit...
