Chapter 2268 Sam Vs Marron
Sam looked at Marron and a million thoughts ran through his head.
Just like how he collected a lot of information about most students, he had her information too. That's what went through his head when he looked at her. She is a staff user and she has a unique ability. Blood manipulation.
It is a unique cultivation technique that she uses that complements her bloodline.
Her body generates unnatural amount of blood. Something that she can control as naturally as her limbs. It is a very unique constitution. Her fighting style is such that the more she bleeds the more she has control over the surroundings.
Unless she runs out of her spiritual energy and Divine energy, her blood continues to generate. But the problem is that her absorption rate is abnormally high to compensate for her usage of blood physically.
It is all a weird loop and the bottom line is that she is hard to fight and she is versatile with high stamina.
Sam ran a dozen scenarios through his head to see if he could have a fighting chance if he hadn't broken through and he could only see rare few scenarios in which he had to use the cubes that previously prepared to deal with these guys.
Without those cubes… he could escape and defend for a while, but that is all.
But now, with the breakthrough and everything that came along with it, he definitely has a fighting chance. Its only based on the simulation data that he gained on her from the Hub. So, if her actions don't exceed those limits by too much, he would be perfect.
"FIGHT"
The fight is announced, Sam instantly activated partial shadow fusion and held his daggers. He shot towards her with the highest speed he could muster in that form.
*BANG*
Marron's staff hit his dagger dodging that attack at a point blank range. She didn't even have a change in her expression. She is not even flustered a little bit. There is not even a single hit of wariness.
*SWOOSH*
She swung her staff throwing him along with his dagger. Sam came back at the same speed, attacking her from all directions possible.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
The sound of the metal hitting metal rung throughout the arena. It is almost similar to the previous fight, only that Crow didn't have a chance to closing the distance between him and Samil, but here Sam managed to close the distance, but he is unable to attack.
Of course, Marron is also not exactly defensive type like Samil.
After a few blocks, she finally made her move. Her speed is just as much as Sam's if not higher. It now became Sam's turn to defend himself.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
Sam blocked three hits and he already felt a bit cornered. Her speed impressive and timing impeccable. Her staff spun and came down to her head with a vertical swing.
*BANG*
Sam blocked it both his daggers. At that moment, she started pushing the staff down, then she slammed the middle of the staff with her palm pushing him further down. Sam felt the force penetrate his body. The staff slipped past the daggers. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even with his shadow partial fusion, he managed to just avoid his head, and he hit landed on is shoulder.
He flashed back and immediately and activated full shadow fusion.
But as if to give Sam a reality check, she lunged forward and stabbed with the end of her shaft hitting him squarely on his chest and then followed with a swing to his head.
*SWOOSH*
Sam dodged the staff coming at his head, but it still brushed past him. Then another swing that came from the sudden change of the staff's direction that was aimed at his head once again.
Sam ducked down and rolled to the side before trying to attack her from the side. She blocked the dagger, but this time, Sam used the repel style. The contact helped him slide down the staff. He spun around and tried to stab her with the second dagger.
*BANG*
She blocked it with the staff again. At this moment however, at the tip of the dagger, the gathered energy suddenly turned into a sphere and was shot at her face. Like an energy bullet just with shadow energy.
*SWOOSH*
The bullet grazed past her cheek and made her step back.
The small bullet left a small cut, that is all. But the cut is still reinforced with that shadow energy might add up to something. Still, it is just a drop in the bucket at this point.
Marron looked at Sam with a smirk and made her nove.
Her speed increased and Sam looked like slippery loach in shallow waters. His movements are completely unorthodox and he is trying to be at his top speed.
Each swing of the staff made his heart shudder and Sam could feel himself sweat even in that fusion form. At least he felt like he was sweating.
*SWOOSH* *BANG* *CRASH*
And that wasn't enough, he was hit squarely once again and crashed into the ground.
Sam stood up hurriedly. The staff is already in front of his eyes coming at him with full speed, and at the exact moment.
*BOOM*
An energy explosion. A small energy bullet exploded. The staff's direction changed and with Sam's flashy dodge, he managed get away without putting as much effort as before. He is already feeling a slight dent on the energy reserves.
Marron for the first time stopped moving and looked at Sam with slight surprise. Sam didn't even care about the stopping, instead he is glad that her facial expression cracked a bit. She is way too calm and Sam doesn't really like it in his opponents when they are that calm.
They are fun to play with when the are a bit lost and paranoid.
That will be easier to handle. Of course, her current situation is nowhere near that. But it is a start.
