The Ultimate Evolution
chapter-906

This rope provided a gliding path between Sheyan and the Statue of Liberty. Even if the motorboat was driving away fast, the rope that shined with a silver glow was also extending rapidly with no signs of breaking.

Hakeem's mouth curled into a sneer. He grabbed the rope with one hand and glided towards Sheyan at a high-speed!

This was Hakeem's must-have tool for killing and plundering - the 'Magical High-Speed Lasso'! If this object was used well, becoming Tarzan or Spiderman under certain circumstances would no longer be a dream.

"You damn lowly ant! You think that you can escape from me just because you got a bit stronger? Well you thought wrong! No matter how powerful you get, ants are still ants, you will never escape the fate of the weak!"

Sheyan appeared to be struggling in panic. He kept trying to cut off the rope with his weapon. However, even though the weapon could easily cut through the rope, the rope would shine with a dazzling light and would show no sign of being cut as if it existed in another dimension.

Hakeem charged down with the force of a storm along the rope like a powerful knight in the Middle Ages charging to his highest speed with a long spear. Both his momentum and force had accumulated to a terrifying degree. His target may be shattered into pieces when he hit.

Meanwhile, Sheyan was limited to a small space on the motorboat, so getting hit was inevitable unless he jumped into the sea. It looked like the only choice he had was to take the hit.

But at that moment, Sheyan pulled out 'Ambition' once again and launched the 'Rum and Songs'!

Logically speaking, the hit rate of an ability like 'Rum and Songs', which came with a sure-hit feature, should be quite reliable, but apparently Hakeem's dodge had a higher precedence than the 'Rum and Songs'. This time, Hakeem was in the air with nowhere to dodge, but a very strange translucent illusionary image appeared from the surface of his body. The lead bullet safely passed through his body. He once again dodged the bullet.

Sheyan would not give up! Since he was promoted to a Growth Hunter, his base attributes had soared. There was no way Hakeem could maintain the terrifying dodge rate as before! He crushed a bottle of curse-mix in his hand. Green mist rose from the gap in his fingers and spread instantly in all directions. So did the shockwave formed from the crushing of the bottle, causing huge ripples in the water around him. Don't forget, the damage and stunning effect of the shockwave also had precedence!

This time, Hakeem's absolute dodge ability did not work!

After Sheyan had officially become a Growth Hunter, he had completely narrowed the gap between them all-around, which had also made Hakeem's dodge rate drop rapidly.

This stunning effect was quite unfavorable for Hakeem. His airborne momentum was extremely powerful, and coupled with his high Agility, he was a combination of might, flexibility and dexterity.

But once he was stunned, he was like a Swan Lake ballet dancer who fell rigidly to the ground after being hit by a stroke midway through the most difficult routine. The essence and the soul of this move were completely lost.

The dive inevitably resulted in a sad ending. Hakeem fell straight down deep into the ocean, forming a large group of white bubbles, while Sheyan literally laughed out loud. He was bursting with mockery like a minion who got away with an evil scheme. He drove the motorboat and gleefully sped away.

But the three-second stun duration after Hakeem fell into the water soon passed. During this time, the motorboat had only driven less than ten meters away. As soon as Hakeem regained control, a ring on his finger shone with a glare of light. His whole body was launched up in an instant, tracing a parabolic path to fall towards the motorboat Sheyan was on!

Sheyan had an impression of this ring; he remembered seeing it in the auction house. It was a dark gold ring called the 'Entanglement of Victory'. Its main property was all attributes +4, and it had a very practical ability called 'Mind Transmission' which was able to instantaneously transport the owner's body to a specified destination.

The dark gold ring originated from the world of Harry Potter.

Each member of the team who won the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup will receive honour and also this prize. They were personally crafted by Dumbledore.

This was the most easily-accessible dark gold ring, and also the most widely-known.

This ring also had a nickname called the Cursed Ring of Death.

Because the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup was held every year, there were many storyline characters who held this ring. Unfortunately, they all regarded the ring as a priceless treasure. That was to say, whoever wanted the ring would have to kill them.

99% of contestants did not care about their lives, but all contestants were very concerned about a dark gold ring - even one as strong as Sheyan who had the aura of a protagonist was not qualified to own a dark gold ring. It could be inferred from this how rare these things were, so it was no wonder that the contestants got greedy.

Of course Sheyan had also toyed with the idea of getting such an easily-accessible dark gold ring for himself, but after careful considerations, he ended up giving up on the thought.

The ring was personally crafted by Dumbledore so it contained a mysterious sensing ability. Once it sensed that the original owner did not voluntarily give up on the ring, a revenge plan would be activated and Dumbledore would be notified. He would dispatch 5 groups of magical servants over three days to take the ring back.

If you could withstand those 5 waves of attacks, then great, the ring is yours. If you couldn't, you pay with your life.

In addition, you would be transferred to an alternate dimension for every wave of attack. You would not be able to receive any outside help (This aspect was a little similar to the boundary breakthrough trial).

After a batch of magic servants was defeated, the next batch of magic servants would be generated based on your weaknesses, so it was difficult to overcome the challenge of these five waves of attacks. For a contestant, acquiring the ring was like acquiring the curse of death, hence the nickname.

The fact that Hakeem had such a ring proved that he was either very powerful or very lucky. And the fact that he would use the effect of the ring showed how eager he was to get his hands on Sheyan. His hatred for Sheyan was already out of control!

Sheyan's laughter abruptly stopped when he saw that Hakeem was going to fall onto the motorboat. He appeared to be shocked at Hakeem's killer move, but he managed to kick the engine control lever in desperation!

Sheyan's control of boats had always been skillful. The motorboat immediately drifted like a sports car, barely giving up half a meter in distance.

This time, it was Hakeem who was stunned. However, he reacted extremely quickly. Although he was about to fall into the sea, he immediately reached out and grabbed the side of the motorboat.

The motorboat was driven at a very fast speed. After Hakeem grabbed the edge of the boat, his entire body dangled like a kite. Sheyan immediately strode forward, raised his foot and stepped on Hakeem's fingers.

Attacks on the fingers are extremely painful. Hakeem's face instantly paled due to the severe pain while Sheyan's kept stepping on Hakeem's fingers mercilessly. Suddenly, Hakeem found an opportunity. He jumped onto the boat with a shout. The dark gold dagger slashed across to force Sheyan back. Hakeem finally succeeded in gaining a foothold on the motorboat.

Hakeem could faintly feel that something wasn't right by now, but at that moment, Sheyan wrinkled his nose again and took two steps back with a stank face, obviously in contempt of the foul smell of piss on Hakeem. Sheyan's action once again sent Hakeem into a rage. His eyes turned cold and he squeezed out a sentence through the seams of his teeth:

"I will carve out your flesh one piece at a time and feed it to the sharks!"

Then, he rushed towards Sheyan ferociously. His dagger traced a thread of sharp golden light in the air, cutting towards Sheyan.

Sheyan, who had no path for retreat, also rushed forward without a word!

The two men collided!

Blood instantly splattered. They only fought for a short twenty seconds within a small area, but the ferociousness of the battle was hard to imagine. Sheyan's blade made a deep wound on Hakeem's face, cutting off blood and flesh and revealed the skull beneath. Hakeem roared furiously. His dark gold dagger slashed upwards to draw a half-moon golden arc in the air as he rushed forward for about four meters to reach the bow of the boat from the stern in the blink of an eye!

Meanwhile, Sheyan emitted a loud scream as he was thrown into the air by the half-moon golden arc. He even had a feeling of being held in the air. Blood splattered from all over his body to form a large cloud of blood mist as if there were seven or eight invisible knives dancing around him. A seemingly nonchalant slash from Hakeem contained such unimaginable power!

The attack was a double-edged sword; Hakeem had to pay a price for it. He fell into a weakened state and his wounds flared with a searing pain, so he had to take a breather. Taking advantage of Hakeem's lapse in concentration, Sheyan rolled forward to break his fall on the deck and leapt into the water!
