Mr. Pantalone has no crazy plans today.

Pantalone did nothing about it, simply watching the tectonic plate gradually approaching and sinking towards him, a meaningful smile playing on his lips, just as the plate and the surging tide were less than a few meters away from Pantalone.

At this moment, an unimaginable and violent force suddenly erupted, tearing through the tide like a thunderbolt carrying violent lightning and water elements, forcefully piercing through the surging torrent.

The young man, wielding a surging, violently exploding water-mine elemental weapon, broke through the encirclement and approached Lotia, causing her to gasp in horror.

"What!?"

----------

P.S.: Regarding the publicly available information about the protagonist's ability to acquire imaginary energy, some people speculate that the protagonist is actually a Herrscher, but I can assure you that the protagonist is definitely not a Herrscher.

Why would I write such a simple setting? As for why the protagonist can obtain imaginary numbers, I will explain the reason later. Anyway, I won't let you guess it so easily.

Also, it's really not that I wanted to stop writing or get stuck in the plot, or that I was writing slowly. My sleep schedule has been too irregular these past few days. Once I get my sleep schedule back, I will definitely finish writing the plot in one go.

Chapter 127 An Absurd Outcome (4k)

Lost in utter shock, Lotia stared in horror at the figure of the black-clad youth who had torn through the curtain of water and was wielding a sharp spear crackling with lightning.

It's hard to imagine that she, the former chief pure water spirit spy of Fontaine, couldn't even block a single attack.

The torrent and surge of her anger were torn apart so easily.

Although she was shocked by the astonishing power displayed by Tartaglia, she quickly regained her composure after her initial loss of focus and manipulated the water elemental power throughout her body to gather at a single point.

The water sphere, formed by highly compressed water elemental force and transformed into a vortex, forcefully blocked the figure wielding the shimmering purplish-black lightning that had traversed such a vast distance in just a few breaths.

The powerful collision of water and mine elements was almost endless at this moment, frantically pouring violent elemental power onto the ground beneath their feet, turning into bursts of water sparkling with explosions and lightning, like a dazzling and magnificent fireworks display.

But hidden beneath this breathtaking painting lies a terror and danger that could take lives.

Only the two fighting each other at the center of this terrifying vortex can remain unharmed in this horrific environment. Even so, Lotia knew that this was merely a temporary expedient to buy some time.

Even though she seemed to have blocked the spear thrust that Tartaglia had poured all his strength into, the distance between her and the spear flashing with purple-black lightning was still slowly closing.

The sharp tip of the spear, imbued with intense corrosiveness and violent lightning elemental power, was inching closer and closer to her body of water. Once Dadalia's spear tip touched the center of the whirlpool and torrent...

It was only a matter of time before her body was pierced by D'Artagnan. Realizing this, Lotia immediately made a decision.

Seeing that D'Artagnan's spear tip was about to pierce the center of the whirlpool, she immediately and decisively chose to inject all the water element in her body into the whirlpool, and then forcibly detonated the surging whirlpool.

"Click—"

There was a sound like something was about to shatter, which made D'Artagnan's expression change slightly when he realized it, but by the time he was about to do something, it was already too late.

Boom! ...

The turbulent water elements suddenly erupted in an instant, and the strong impact caused the recoil force to almost shatter the spear in his hand, forcing him to be pushed back dozens of meters.

The cold water instantly soaked his entire body, leaving him completely drenched inside and out.

The chill emanating from his limbs and bones robbed him of his body heat and had a certain impact on him.

However, this did not have a significant impact on him, or rather, it was due to his physical condition after undergoing the 'Fusion Warrior' modification surgery that Tartaglia became almost completely immune to most water elemental damage.

Even though most of the water element damage was filtered out, some of it still had some impact on him. Fortunately, the water element damage that wasn't completely immune to didn't have a significant impact on him.

Just as he was readjusting his stance and dissipating the impact on his body.

At the same time, at the moment of the explosion, Lotia used the water flow from the explosion to escape and, after a few rolls, regained her footing in the water.

Although the attack allowed her to escape, it used up most of the water element in the water, which still had some impact on Lotia.

As a pure water spirit, Lotia herself is composed of water elements.

If she were to lose too much water at once, it would easily destabilize her existence as an elemental being.

The collision with Tartaglia just now caused her water body to disintegrate.

Fortunately, she quickly stabilized her body in the water and, as Tadalia regained her footing, she also rallied her momentum.

After being soaked by the water element that had degraded into ordinary pure water, D'Artagnan, after re-establishing his stance, revealed a smile with a hint of enjoyment on his lips, swung his spear to shake off the remaining water, and watched as Lotia escaped from his grasp.

"Your strength is decent, but if the former chief pure water spirit spy of Fontaine Palace was only this strong, he wouldn't have been able to escape from me."

"Damn it... What a troublesome guy, it's the kind of guy I least want to face."

Upon seeing Tartaglia's reaction, Lothia, the former chief pure water spirit spy of Fontaine, immediately understood what kind of person Tartaglia was.

For Lotia, who simply wanted to find a peaceful place away from conflict, the people she disliked dealing with the most were those like D'Artagnan, who were obsessed with fighting and killing.

Because these kinds of people are impossible to communicate with, and their very existence would cause conflict and strife, she felt extremely disliked and resistant to them.

However, the situation she was facing left her with no choice. After Dartalia displayed his bloodlust and fighting spirit, Lothia squeezed out the little water elemental power she had just recovered from her own body.

"Face the wrath of the flowing water! It can take any form; that is the power of water—"

And it conveyed its commands and will to the waters in this area. With Lotia's ethereal voice, the tide began to gather and eventually transformed into countless water phantoms that rushed toward Datalia's figure.

Under Lotia's will, the flowing water transformed into various forms: some into flower mice, some into tomb beasts, some into water crabs, some into swimming birds, some into water cranes, some into flying kites... a dazzling array of illusions.

Numerous water phantoms tread on the surging waters, carrying endless tides as they rush toward this direction.

Seeing the countless water phantoms rushing towards him, D'Artagnan remained calm and watched the scene unfold. He flicked his lightning spear and laughed heartily.

"Ha! Interesting! But this kind of thing is of no use to me."
