After a few minutes, Jacob suddenly noticed something. The light of the submarine suddenly went off, and all of a sudden, he felt a faint change in the water current around him.
'What are they up to?' Jacob was fully alert as he knew this was simply too strange, and a strange fear suddenly gripped his heart.
Without hesitation, he quickly summoned Immortika since this was exactly the situation he was saving it for and quickly asked about who was around him. The answer he got was something he clearly didn't want to see.
"Hehehe, isn't this the same situation where you escape from the frying pan only to found yourself in the middle of a fire?
"There are five Epic Tier-7 and three Epic Tier-8 Bronze Barbarians completely surrounding you, and they are closing in fast, and I must say they mean business! Ahahah…!"
'I've been discovered?!'
With a nasty expression, he used fluid acceleration to intensify his reflexes even more. He was finally able to see a vague light in this darkness and not only just one but three more, and they were all slowly moving in none other than his direction, just as Immortika stated!
Alarmed, Jacob had no idea just how they were able to spot him too swiftly, and he felt even more fearful of those subs.
Nevertheless, he knew it wasn't the time to mull over this, and he had to find a way to escape this situation and quickly.
'Since they can detect me despite the bronze disk stealth and this darkness, then I need more than speed to throw them off my tail. In the end, I was still not prepared enough, or should I say I made a terrible enemy…' Jacob thought bitterly, but he was quickly able to calm down.
He has no regret for what he did in the rare plains, and as long as he can, he will do it all over again if his life is threatened by someone.
Now Jacob thought of his other option.
'Now that I'm running out of options, I should make a move first before those guys.' Jacob coldly thought before he selected the closest submarine to him and moved towards it at full speed.
The Killer Submarine's crew naturally saw Jacob's sudden movement, and the Alpha Killer sneered coldly, "Killer 5, the rat is spooked and now coming to bite you. You have permission to use the rat killer!"
"It seems this rat is not our normal gutter rat but a more cunning house rat! But I also don't care about destroying the entire house to kill it!" Killer 5 coldly snickered, and everyone else also laughed.
They were now thinking that it was already over and soon they would be able to head back.
However, the Alpha Killer's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he quickly commanded, "His speed is still increasing, don't let our guard down!"
"Don't worry, Alpha Killer, even if a small meteorite hit the Killer Sub. It can still handle that impact." Someone confidently declared, and others also agreed.
Jacob was finally able to see the shark-like killer submarine, and he instantly spotted two heavy machine guns and eight small missiles on two of its fins.
Furthermore, they were all locked in Jacob's direction, and without any warning, the machine gun suddenly started to spit fire, catching Jacob completely off guard!
'Water magic bullets?!' Jacob wasn't a fool as he was instantly able to spot the purple sheen on those incoming bullets.
He was very familiar with the magic bullets, and he knew these bullets were extremely deadly in special environments. Like right now, in water, a water element magic bullet can hit a target without losing its velocity because of the water mass. Simply put, they will work inside the water like they worked out in the open!
Furthermore, those bullets were at least intermediate epic grade, and Jacob couldn't dodge all of them, especially when he was in the water. Not to mention, each of those machine guns was firing two hundred bullets per second!
Even with Jacob's reaction speed, it was already too late to use some countermeasure, and those bullets hit him, and he was only able to save his head by blocking them with his hands.
However, something completely unexpected happened. Even though those bullets managed to penetrate his advanced rare-grade windbreaker and clothes easily, they weren't able to pierce through his skin!
'The advanced epic-grade armor!' Jacob instantly rejoiced when he remembered the skin armor he wore before diving.
However, the force behind those bullets was no joke. They instantly pushed him back, not to mention, despite not getting penetrated by those bullets, they still hurt like a dog bite whenever they hit on his skin.
Jacob almost suffered this sort of pain for 2000 rounds, and he felt his internal organs were all completely jumbled up, and even blood started to trickle from his orifice.
However, he was still alive, and that's what mattered to him the most, or if he hadn't worn that armor, there would be thousands of holes in his body.
All he wanted to do was to come close enough to the sub so he could see the pilot because it was necessary to cast a hex.
But he never expected this kind of firepower awaits him the moment he got closer, and now he was barely conscious, and every single part of his body hurt like hell. Furthermore, he was out of breath as well, and with all those injuries, his situation was quite critical!
At this moment, he saw the submarine coming closer toward him, probably coming to check if he was dead or alive.
'No, I can't just die or be captured again!' Jacob gritted his teeth as he endured and tried to keep himself stable as possible and let the submarine come closer!
"I think the rat is exterminated. Just heading there to confirm. Oh, I wanna ask, will the Leader mind if we delivered a corpse filled with holes?" A young barbarian with short hair questioned jokingly as head toward Jacob's floating body.
However, his confident expression suddenly crumbled when he flashed a light over his body, and his eyes dilated in shock!
