My wife is the stand-in.

Gem Magic - Physical Enhancement

After swallowing a magical agate, several magical patterns appeared all over Amanosaki's body. He let go of the agate, did a somersault in the air, and used the momentum of free fall to kick the speedboat away!

boom!

The queen fish missed its target, its large mouth snapping open with a dull thud.

Amanosaki landed steadily on the speedboat, carrying the swordsman's armor that he had been chatting with earlier.

"Set the ship quickly!"

Seeing the knight-errant B, who was piloting the speedboat, staring blankly at him, Amanosaki roared with a ferocious expression:

"Do you want to get blown up by your teammates?!"

A sharp, piercing sound came from all directions, and the swordsman B was so frightened by the sound that his soul almost left his body.

Those veteran competitors have already made their moves!

Dozens of exploding flying swords, with dark red tips and sparks flying from their tails, were infused with sword energy by a skilled swordsman and rushed toward the queen fish that was trying to fall back into the water!

Knight B twisted the throttle to the limit, and the propeller spun wildly, kicking up a trail of white foam on the scarlet water.

A colorful explosion occurred behind the speedboat. Several red and gray mushrooms suddenly sprouted from the Queen Fish's body, and the Queen Fish convulsed and collapsed as if in an epileptic seizure.

"Pooh!"

Amanosaki tossed the Swordsman A onto the boat, stood steadily on the edge of the gunwale, and spat out the bloody foam from his mouth with disgust.

The Queen Fish was hit by dozens of flying swords, her blood and flesh flying everywhere. Amanosaki and his group, being the closest, were covered in blood and had a strange taste in their mouths.

They must have eaten the blood rain.

"It's a pity that blondie went into shock, otherwise, with the speedboat and his superpowers, he could have cut open the Queen Mermaid's belly no matter what."

Amanosaki casually swung the Spear of Longchinus, slicing off the four-clawed scaled fish that dared to show their heads one by one, muttering to himself in frustration.

The Queen Fish's attack on Amanosaki just now seemed dangerous, but it was actually an opportunity.

If it were a speedboat and a queenfish going head-to-head on the river, Nozaki would probably have taken off running that day.

But aren't there lurking, menacing swordsmen everywhere?

Right now, there are many righteous people on the river!

"Be careful of explosions!"

While Amanosaki was still in a daze, a loud warning sound pulled him back to reality.

In the distance, a dozen or so swordsmen carrying bamboo tube-like implements were seen flying towards the center of the river, their toes touching the bamboo poles.

Once they caught the ripples created by the queen fish's swimming, they spread their legs and stood steadily in the middle of the bamboo pole, took out their bamboo tubes, and gathered their strength in pairs.

A faint, sharp scent gathered in the bamboo tube, accumulating to its peak after the conspicuous sword energy reached its peak.

With a "plop," a teardrop-shaped object slowly entered the water, then quickly accelerated and headed towards the Queen Fish.

Amanosaki grabbed the swordsman and yelled, "You son of a bitch! Are you swordsmen?!"

"...I think so." Swordsman A nodded blankly.

"Then explain to me, what is that thing?"

Swordsman A followed Amanosaki's gaze and asked, "Is there a problem with infusing sword energy into an object to destroy the demon's internal organs and thus physically eliminate it?"

"Whose swordsmanship is this, mistaking a torpedo for a sword?! Have we stumbled into some kind of battlefield? Can't we get the army to come and rescue us?! I received my official Chinese citizen ID card last week! I'm a part of China, you know!"

Amanosaki went crazy.

The water trembled violently, and a series of explosions sprayed out large clumps of blood. Crimson water columns rose one after another amidst cheers of "Wow!" from the spectators on the shore.

"Water ghosts are sending a message! Two out of five torpedoes hit, and three others detonated prematurely due to accidental contact!" Knight B shouted from his speedboat.

"It must have been that old bastard Jie Laobin who taught him!" Amanosaki bit his finger and cursed viciously.

"Indeed, the Mountain Lord studied under the Sword Immortal, Mr. Jie Laobin, for a few months in his early years..." explained the Swordsman A.

Amanosaki covered his head, feeling a bit of a headache: "I know without you explaining. A guy who can use a parasol as a sword is obviously not serious, and the students he teaches are not serious either."

"I'm not trying to explain, I just want to advise you not to insult the mountain lord's teacher." The knight-errant A looked aggrieved, but when he saw Amanosaki glaring at him, he shut his mouth.

Amanosaki didn't have time to chat with him; he was really troubled by something.

One of the biggest problems with modern heavy weapons is damage overflow.

A single bullet can kill a person, but in modern warfare, armies are willing to use thousands of bullets to eliminate the enemy in order to ensure lethality. As a result, semi-automatic rifles replaced bolt-action rifles, and fully automatic rifles replaced semi-automatic rifles.

In artillery and explosives, this damage spillover is even more pronounced.

But what Amanosaki was holding was not a rocket launcher, but a cold weapon.

He needs to get close enough to the enemy to unleash the power of the Spear of Longinus and his own abilities.

Otherwise, the divine weapon that Wang Ze had been longing for would be no different from a fire poker in his hands.

"This isn't demon slaying, it's like a modern army beating up cavemen! ... It's unrealistic to expect them to stop and watch me show off. They even dared to fire when two Wudang heroes were right there. These people have no shame when it comes to points!"

The thought that he had finally managed to get out and stretch his muscles, only to be forced to stand on the sidelines killing small fish filled him with frustration.

Unlike Amanosaki, who was lost in sorrow, Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes shone brightly with a brilliance.

She crossed her legs, excitedly squeezing her thighs together, breathing rapidly, her cheeks flushed, and her breasts trembling with each breath.

Inspiration, countless inspirations are bursting forth from the various images and emotions sent by Amanosaki.

"Wow~ It's rare to see such a clear and concise field research!" She sucked in her saliva, her ten fingers typing at lightning speed, countless wonderful scenes surging in her mind.

'Nozaki! Don't run away! '

Far away, Kasumigaoka Utaha's thoughts crept into Amanosaki's mind.

'Don't be afraid of terror; face it with a smile! The best way to overcome fear is to confront it!'

"You big idiot! They're using heavy firepower, you know that?!" Amanosaki said angrily. "These guys have absolutely no sportsmanship!"

"Rin Tohsaka is so exceptionally talented, yet her Gandri (Garrison) is only described as a machine gun. These knights don't even use machine guns; they come straight for sniper rifles, rocket launchers, and torpedoes! If I get accidentally shot, you can expect a life of widowhood!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha snorted coldly. Under the strange gaze of Lin Shuyu, who was eating walnut cookies nearby, the girl muttered to herself:

"I remember, the power of a bullet underwater is unlikely to reach even a depth of two meters."

Amanosaki's eyes narrowed, he paused for a few seconds, and then grinned maliciously.

"Honey, you're absolutely right."

Then, to the astonishment of the two knights, Amanosaki pulled out several glowing gems, chewed them up, tore open his shirt, and gave them a hearty laugh:

"I'm going for a swim. You two can find a place to rest."

After saying that, he dove into the water and disappeared without a trace.

After a long while, the two swordsmen finally looked at each other, their faces deathly pale:

"Aren't there tens of thousands of four-clawed scaled fish down there?"

"Correct."

"He just went down like that?"

"Correct."

"Am I not dreaming?"

"I saw it too, it shouldn't be."

Chapter 121: Caliber is the Truth... Holy crap?

Amanosaki took a deep breath and dived into the water.

The cold, viscous river water, mixed with fish carcass fragments, was blocked by the arrogant crystals that grew on the skin.

As Amanosaki moved, the crystals continuously broke and regenerated, transforming from a chaotic and ferocious state into a smooth, close-fitting appearance.

Several four-clawed scaled fish rushed over and feasted on the shimmering Amanosaki as he fell into the water.

Then he was strung together by Amanosaki's gun.

The crystal claw pierced the fish's head, and several fish quickly turned into dried corpses, which were then churned up by the underwater turbulence.

Self-realized magical property: [Devour]

The mask covering Amanosaki's head bulged out, causing Amanosaki to spit out a gem filled with magic power from his mouth.

Amanosaki, empowered by both the medicinal bath and magic, tore through the water curtain in front of him and swam recklessly in the direction of the explosion.

The Wudang heroes bombarded the shallow waters relentlessly, making it impossible for Amanosaki to attract the attention of the four-clawed fish in the distance, no matter how much noise he made.

Because the river is now filled with the blood of the Queen Fish, her people have gone mad and swarmed around her, attacking the bamboo poles on the water's surface with frenzy.

This frenzied behavior failed to harm those skilled enough to wield modern weapons; instead, it caused many honest young heroes who were simply killing fish to earn points to fail.

So when these heroes were pulled up from the air by the swordsmen, they looked at those guys who were bombarding everything and looked like Mad Rat bombers, and their eyes couldn't help but be filled with both jealousy and anger.

"I'll learn to infuse sword energy sooner or later! Then I'll take a Gatling gun and blast you bunch of bastards to the sky one by one!" one of the unconvinced swordsmen shouted defiantly.

But all of this was irrelevant to Amanosaki; underwater, he unexpectedly managed to keep things hidden from view.

Moreover, he discovered that he wasn't alone underwater; there were other divers carrying oxygen tanks and boosters, and wearing four-clawed fish skins, also quietly moving around at the underwater edge.

These people must be the water ghosts that Knight B mentioned.

Amanosaki felt that these people were more reliable than the bombers on the surface of the water, given their willingness to work in such complex water conditions and dangerous environments.

So he swam past the water ghost, gave it a thumbs up, and then swam at an extremely fast straight speed toward the blood-mist-filled area ahead.

"What?! He went into the water!"

Wang Ze slammed his hand on the table, looking utterly shocked.

"Yes, those two children are still on the river. What should we do? Should we bring them back?"

"Go ahead and take it, of course we'll take it." Wang Ze glared. "They're good at killing small fish, but against the kingfish, they'll just get eaten. There's only one boat on the river right now, and Amanosaki's already in the water. Staying there is just like being a target, isn't it?"

Another old man leaned over and whispered, "The people underwater said they saw Amanosaki. He was wearing a very beautiful suit of armor and charging forward like a torpedo."

"Damn it..." Wang Ze was about to speak when the first old man spoke up, his voice rising with anxiety: "Oh no! That queen fish has gone mad, abandoning those juniors that hurt it, and is heading towards the small boat!"
