[Energy barrier 100% deployed. The battlesuit’s functions have been brought down 20.8% because of water pressure. Movement will feel a little unnatural.]

Level S battlesuit.

Even though it has been configured according to the environment, he is 2000m into the water. Cha Jun Sung isn’t a fish. Of course there are restrictions.

The only proper thing Cha Jun Sung purchased in the level S store is his battlesuit. He only looked at the level S support gear in awe because he didn’t have enough points.

He lost what he had, so the only difference from other Rankers is his battlesuit.

‘Heavy.’

That was the first feeling Cha Jun Sung had when he left Albatrus.

His energy was consumed faster than normal as well.

It’s because he’s maintaining the energy barrier at 100%.

This is the only way to resolve the issue of water pressure. 20% was taken off, so he can only show 80% of his true abilities.

[You can last 1 hour with the air from your oxygen tank.]

[It is a compressed oxygen tank, but it was measured on the standard of normal breathing volume. So as an aftermath of battle, he will run out of breath more quickly.]

“1 hour? It won’t take even 30 minutes. Don’t worry and just watch.”

Kyak!

Penomina detected Cha Jun Sung’s presence.

However, it did not approach him.

Rather, it kept watching the Albatrus behind him and kept getting further away.

[View radius! Sound wave mode!]

Because it is inside the ocean, his heat detection and infrared ray detection don’t pick up Penomina’s movement easily.

[Overload, are you okay?]

[Other than my body feeling a little heavy, it’s generally pretty okay.]

Penomina is swimming 2km outside.

That is definitely an invitation.

It is an invitation to come and try catching it.

[I’ll follow it.]

[It’s too dangerous. It could be a trap. If we focus an attack of hydraulic guns and hydraulic impact guns, even the Penomina wouldn’t be able to withstand it.]

He collected basic information about Penomina.

He can kill it now.

[It’s okay. Even if it’s a trap, it won’t be like I can’t get out of it. An opponent like that is perfect to start my exploration of the underwater world in.]

Cha Jun Sung had underwater battle in mind when he first boarded the Albatrus. He hadn’t interfered until now because the opponent had been too weak.

Underwater battle is only doable if it is up to standard. He can’t open the hatch and go out for lower level mutants.

[The Penomina will completely run away if the Albatrus moves, so we will leave the hydraulic guns loaded.]

Bang!

Cha Jun Sung turned the Overbooster on.

His body shoots through the ocean.

The Penomina must have thought it succeeded in luring him because it stopped once the Albatrus was only slightly visible.

It thought that this was a distance it could run away in.

Cha Jun Sung threw his body into the mouth. He jabbed Hades forward and adjusted the Overbooster to speed ahead.

It was so intense seawater around him whirled and became a tornado.

The stupid Penomina swallowed the tornado.

Penomina’s flesh ripped up and Cha Jun Sung got out.

He went in through the mouth, but he’s not sure whether he came out through its neck or the back of its head. The configuration of its body is very different from not just humans but ordinary mutants as well.

But there must be damage when seeing the blood come out.

Kyak!

A scream.

It is a scream full of pain.

Attacking first is important in a battle.

The win could be determined with that first hit if the enemy is caught off guard.

The Penomina struggles and dozens of thin and thick tentacles wave around. He can’t tell whether they’re trying to wrap around him, hit him, or go through him.

He brought Hades up.

Is it because they are underwater?

A clear vacuum with a blue light cuts the tentacle coming at him from the front in half.

Cha Jun Sung used the time while the tentacle was being cut to try and attack, but the Penomina isn’t just watching.

Bang!

A pillar thicker than the battlesuit hit Cha Jun Sung’s back.

It collided with a repulsive force everywhere because of the water.

Cha Jun Sung fell onto a rock with bizarre coral reef and clams stuck everywhere. As soon as he fell, he moved his body to the side.

He doesn’t know when it followed him, but the Penomina threw its tentacles down on him. The hard rock was destroyed with one hit, and momentarily made the water white.

Stealthy Cha Jun Sung shoots his reinforced rifle from amongst the debris.

He can’t see, but he’s using the sonic mode to see the Penomina. It is the same for the Penomina as well.

Marine life have different senses from land creatures.

The two of them went back and forth with attacks from inside the white debris.

‘Other than the water pressure, it’s similar to fighting in the air. It’s important to get tips.’

He could even feel a single finger moving.

There isn’t anywhere to put his feet down, so he needs to depend on the booster for balance.

‘It’s slow and frustrating.’

He needs to get used to this environment quickly.

The restriction on his battlesuit is 20%, but it isn’t the kind of thing that can be decided with a simple figure.

This is a level 7.

It seems that he will have to use all his power when fighting a level 8.

It is an environment in which he gets weaker and his opponent gets stronger.

‘It looks like I won’t get to even lay a hand on Levadan even after killing all the Disasters on land. It’d be a problem even finding it without the Albatrus or some other level S weapon.’

He saw Black Demon, White Empress, and Cruel King in person.

Black Demon in particular showed power that really made him feel that he is a level 9.

He should be given an advantage while fighting a monster like that, but to have a handicap?

He could see his death just thinking about it.

Papat!

Cha Jun Sung stepped on the ground and soared up.

A tentacle follows behind him. As he progresses, he grows more accustomed to the environment.

The Penomina’s pattern is extremely simple.

It uses its tentacles or occasionally sprays a strange liquid.

It seems like the poison that Sea General was talking about. The Penomina does what it wants, wiping it and spraying it.

[I was just watching without saying anything, but he hasn’t been able to kill it even after 30 minutes.]

“I was playing.”

He is going to end it. About half of it really was play.

Killing it is one thing, but this kind of opponent will help him for the real fight.

‘Level B advancement… 50 million.’

Cha Jun Sung goes toward the Penomina’s face.

Jellyfish and octopus have vitality. They live for some amount of time even after they have been cut up into pieces.

If the Penomina is in that category, it is better for him to be careful to the end.

Kyak!

When Cha Jun Sung was ripping up the Penomina’s face, he could hear a sound similar to something dying from his side.

Cha Jun Sung turned his head.

A tentacle filled his view.

“Of course. It didn’t make sense that one of these was worth 50 million.”

Papapat!

An attack of something like a spear goes at Cha Jun Sung’s body.

He used the Overbooster and avoided it with minimal movement.

2 Penominas.

He had been expecting that this might happen.

[You have 25 minutes left.]

Oxygen for him to breathe.

He hasn’t used the oxygen at a faster rate because the opponent isn’t too difficult and his breath didn’t get shorter.

“Alright. I’ll eat it gratefully.”

The points would have been divided up 1/n if he had been on the Albatrus, but he had come out.

If he kills them, he can take all the points for a level 7 for himself.

And that’s two of them.

He won’t be able to do this too often because it would be a disservice to the others.

He’ll do it whenever he can. Including this time.
