As soon as An removed the Angel power holding the green arrow at bay, it immediately released all the pent-up tension and power inside of it.
The explosion created a giant gust of wind.
This arrow was originally intended to create a force powerful enough to topple the ''yer'' out of thefort of their logs. They would stand no chance as they got hit by this arrow that had the same power as a tornado wrapped up in a small tip.
But An, because of his unique set of powers, was able to harness that energy for himself.
He released the arrow behind him, creating a propulsion effect thatunched him forward,
The force was powerful enough to send him almost 30 feet in the air and 30 feet forward!
But that wasn''t the end of it all. While in mid-air, An took out another one of the green-tipped arrows and positioned it behind him. It was the same thing he did before!
He released the Angel power holding that arrow and let it explode into a huge breeze of air that took An further and further forward, high up in the air. The best thing about this was that hepletely circumvented the obstacles designed to hinder him.
The arrows under him were only designed to go from left to right, or right to left. They weren''t designed to go upwards!
And since An wasn''t technically breaking any rules, then the arrows couldn''tunch themselves towards him.
And even if the Huntsman couldmand the arrows to target An, it knew that it wasn''t the best idea. After all, An already proved that he could use the arrows to his advantage. The Huntsman would only help him by sending more arrows towards his way.
WHOOSH!
An continued tounch himself further forward with the green arrows, making so much progress that he could already see the shore up ahead.
Before he figured out this ''cheat'', he was inches away from leaving the grounds of the game entirely. Stay updated through empire
When he looked down, he could see the traps and obstacles that he was supposed to cross during the game.
From visual inspection alone, he knew that it would take a lot of effort, luck, endurance, and skill to maneuver past those traps. He saw whirlpools, shark-infested waters, and even arge crevice where all the water drained downwards.
He wouldn''t know how to deal with that. But because of this ingenious way of beating the game, he didn''t have to.
"Porter! How are you doing that? I want tomend you for this ingenious way of crossing theke, but I am beside myself with confusion. There must be something in your Physique LifeSkill that can do that, am I right? But I cannot, for the life of me, figure out what that is!
Maybe it''s your mutation…but that still doesn''t make sense! I know all the mutations that are avable in the Vineyard, and there''s nothing in there that could give you the ability to grab a Canzer''s power and disable it for a moment in time!
This is breaking my brain!
My pride as an Operator is shattered. I thought I knew everything there was to know about LifeSkills and mutations, but it seemed that I was still a frog in the well.
Can you tell me how you''re doing it, please!"
Despite Carmine''s pleas, An had no intention of telling the truth, at least for now.
And even if he wanted to tell the truth, he couldn''t. After all, he was too busy dealing with the current problem he was on right now.
''You have cheated. Prepare for the full force of my arrow.''
The Canzer gave out an ominous warning that sent shivers down An''s spine.
Even though he was high up in the air, with a couple more green-tipped arrows floating an inch away from his chest ready to give him a boost, with the shore of theke in clear view from his position, he knew that the fight was far from over.
KRAKKKKK!
The air crackled with electricity as the Huntsman released a full-powered arrow heading towards An at almost lightspeed.
An had no way to dodge. The moment he heard the Huntsman''s words was the moment he saw the arrow just two meters away from his body.
He had no way to think.
His instincts kicked in and he released his Angel Wings—at least he nned to.
After all, manifesting his Angel Wings wasn''t as instant as he would like it to be. There was a fraction of a second of a dy—a dy that he did not have time for.
Thankfully, by activating his mutation, he had to let go of his False Mutation for a brief second.
And in this brief second, the arrows in front of his chest were released from their suppression. There was no longer any Angel Power preventing them from exploding.
In that instant, fifteen green-tipped and red-tipped arrows exploded right in front of An''s chest, creating a powerful force that cracked his chitinous armor.
In any other situation, this would have been a bad oue. But on this specific asion, it was extremely fortunate for An.
After all, the force from the multiple arrows was somehow able to weaken the serious lightning arrow fired personally by the Huntsman.
It was a genuine, bona fide, Specialist-level attack. It would have destroyed An''s chitinous armor with just one attack.
But because of the explosion, it was weakened by a small degree. And most importantly of all, the force was enough to redirect it away from An''s chest, and towards his side.
Even still, as the arrow hit his battle suit, it induced an electric shock that gave An a pain that he had never felt before.@@novelbin@@
It paralyzed him. He couldn''t even utter a painful cry.
Just by a small graze from that arrow, he lost 500 years of SoulTime.
His incapacitated body flew through the air and finallynded on the shores.
He was finally on the other side of theke.
