As the water fish dragon unleashed a ferocious high-pressure torrent from beneath, Ryan, grasping the hilt of his colossal greatsword, braced himself and managed to intercept the attack. His sword met the deluge with a resonant clash, sparks of energy dancing off the blade.
However, the sheer magnitude of the torrent was overwhelming. Even with Ryan's enhanced clone physique, nearly ten times that of a regular human, the brutal force of the water pummeled him relentlessly. Blood seeped from the corners of his mouth as the impact drove him backward, carving a ten-meter-long trench in the earth. His skin was lacerated by the razor-sharp droplets, leaving behind a trail of crimson wounds.
Clad in the protective aura of his [Attribute Resistance lv.1] and the shimmering [Energy Resistance Ring], Ryan weathered the storm. Without these defenses, his injuries would have been catastrophic.
