Book 5 Chapter 33: Underwater Battle (Part 1)
Just when the Young Widow was broken in half, Lu Chio had jumped out of the ship.
He was chasing after Fatty.
When someone is filled with hatred, it is easy to become single-minded and focus on one thing, disregarding everything else.
The humiliation brought about by Fatty's wave of fear made him angrier than killing him—and no one could tolerate the shame of being taken out of the fight because of fear, so feelings of impatience overwhelmed him.
Now, in the middle of the battle, nobody had the thought or the time to laugh at him. But what about after the battle finished?
Maybe he would never live it down in his life.
Kill Fatty! Only by killing Fatty he could wash away his humiliation!
So when Fatty dove into the water, he also jumped off the ship.
He used Words of Truth again.
"Dizzy!"
Luo Hao felt a sudden burst of numbness in his body, and he became powerless, falling into the water like a stiff log.
When he entered the water, Lu Chio had already caught up.
Turning his right hand, he again aimed Split Spirit Claw at the top of Fatty's head.
He had previously failed to catch Fatty, and the skill had not really been used, so it was not subjected to cooldown restrictions.
He was confident that this claw would succeed, but he did not expect that Fatty would suddenly twist his body like a fish.
Lu Chio was slightly stunned.
Because Split Spirit Claw was affected by the resistance of the water, its speed was much slower, but even so, there was no reason for it to be slower than Fatty, who was affected by the "Dizzy" word.
After missing for the second time, he tried to grab Fatty again. But Fatty turned his body and once more avoided having his head hit, with Lu Chio grabbing his fat belly instead. However, this Split Spirit Claw had at most 40% of its original power. Fatty didn't even wince, he just moved his feet to swim.
The effect of the "Dizzy" word was gradually disappearing, and Luo Hao was as agile as a big fat fish when swimming in the water.
Lu Chio realized that this damned Fatty had at least Advanced-level Swimming Forte and was much less affected by the water restrictions than himself, and in the water he was even better.
Actually, Fatty was originally the best swimmer among his teammates. Although he was a geek, he often went to the sea with his father in his early years. Two scrolls had made his water capability even more impressive. Fighting in this water really made him feel like a fish returning to the sea.
The only problem was that he was timid, and instead, he relied on the new environment to get away from Lu Chio. He really felt lucky in his heart because he lacked the courage to fight back.
Lu Chio saw Fatty wanting to slip away and was about to spit out another Word of Truth.
However, he did not expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, the salty water would enter his mouth. The Word of Truth didn't come out, but instead, he felt awkward.
Lu Chio was anxious and indignant, so he raised his arm and activated Mind Control.
His Mind Control was a long-distance skill, and Fatty's swimming speed was not fast enough to get out of the range. However, he was affected by water restrictions, and his willpower was decreased by 30%. Mind Control's original chance of success was not high, in this situation it was even lower.
