The Rise Of A Porter

Chapter 21 - Soul Grapple (2)



"You're safe now... You're safe now..." Arnold mumbled and patted Nicole's head, "I'll just deal with the other guy and then we can-"

BANG!!! ​​

"ENOUGH!" Bob shouted, at this moment beams of bright light shot out from his body, causing an energy exploring in a range of a few meters. "I'LL KILL YOU!"

A blinding electrical light suddenly raged through Bob's body. The next moment, Bob was completely surrounded by violent bolts of lightning, ready to wreck havoc.

Arnold and his summons were like a group of annoying wasps to Bob, as not only did they hurt a lot, he could not get his hands on them and this irritated him a lot. He had only planned on grievously injuring Arnold, but fighting this persistent b*stard made him mad! Now all he could think of was to kill him.

At this time, the system gave Arnold a new quest.

"This isn't good..." Arnold could feel Bob's murderous intent. No matter what happens, he had to protect Nicole. He grabbed a <Medium HP potion> from his inventory and gave it to Nicole. "Nicole, drink this okay? You'll feel better."

He then turned towards the golems, "I'll hold him back, you guys take her as far as you can. Understood?"

The golems hesitated for a while but then they obeyed his command, and started running way from the battlefield. Nicole kept shouting, begging them to turn back and help but their master had given them an order to fulfill. Nicole's protection was their primary goal.

"Getting a bit cocky are we?" Bob gave a nasty smile to Arnold, "You could barely hold me back when you had your summons with you. What can you possibly do without them."

"Do you know how to fight or you only know to run your smelly mouth?" Arnold taunted him, "Your breath is so bad, my sister couldn't take it anymore and had to run away."

"You... I'M GONNA MAKE YOU WISH THAT YOU WERE NEVER BORN!" Bob shouted and charged towards a defenseless Arnold.

Arnold took out his guns and started shooting at him. Bob's defense was better than before, which reduced the damage inflicted per bullet but as more bullets were hitting him, the damage output more or less remained the same. Arnold used [PROBE] to check his opponent's HP.

Target's remaining HP : 3106/4000

"This is bad..." Arnold mumbled as he activated [ RAPID FLASH ] to dodge Bob's incoming attack while shooting him. Suddenly Bob shouted angrily and a message popped up on Arnold's interface.

_________________________

You've inflicted : 482 points of physical damage to your target.

You've inflicted : 169 points of true damage to your target.

Total damage dealt after reduction due to defense : 591

Target's remaining HP : 2515/4000

Arnold couldn't believe his eyes! Two bullets continuously managed to trigger both of his damage enhancing passive skills [EXPLOSIVE SHOT] and [STATIC RAGE] this dealing such an explosive amount of damage to Bob. No wonder Bob was shouting in pain and anger.

But a moment of excitement managed to distract Arnold. Bob took advantage of this situation and closed the distance between them, Arnold saw him coming but it was too late. Bob rained a barrage of punches on Arnold, each punch was stronger than before. His 13th punch sent Arnold flying backwards.

Bob called this move 'Seismic Dismantling', had defeated countless A ranked warriors with this move, so you can forget about a C ranked warrior surviving this move. Bob heaved a sigh of relief and picked up Arnold by his hair.

"Humph... Now you'll see why you shouldn't provoke someone of higher rank than yours." Bob proudly declared, "Now if you don't mind, I have to capture your helpless sister."

"Oh..yeah?" Arnold mumbled.

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

Arnold immediately fired three shots at point blank range. Bob immediately let him go and stepped back.

"HOW THE HELL ARE YOU ALIVE!" Bob bellowed.

"You think your puny attacks will be able to kill me?"

Arnold acted calm and collected on the outside, but inside he was scared shitless. Bob's one attack was enough to kill him, if it wasn't for [SACRED PROTECTION] that triggered at that time he would've been dead.

Those three shots that Arnold fired managed to take another 900 HP from Bob while Arnold's own HP was below 60% of its maximum value and his mana was at 35% of its maximum value.

Target's remaining HP : 1615/4000

"You... BAST*RD!"

"Time to say goodbye." Arnold aimed his guns at Bob and fired!

*CLICK* *CLICK*

His guns were empty, but he wasn't worried about it. He quickly activated [DEMON BLITZ] and... nothing happened.

You need to have at least one bullet/projectile to activate this skill.

Arnold's face fell once again. He got so involved in the battle, he completely lost count of the bullets he had left. Although He had beast crystals in his inventory but he didn't have the time to purchase bullets from the shop...

"Are you out of bullets or out of luck?" Bob smirked, "I had a lot of fun but it ends now."

A formless wind pressure surrounded both of them. Bob got yet another energy boost. Wherever he stepped, a gray cloud of dust would be kicked up and a crater would form.

He just surpassed the limit of rank B... he was a calamity now.
