'Paralysis?'
When his hands went limp and the trident fell off from his grasp, Adam's heart skipped a beat!
Thud~
Falling onto his knees, the earthling couldn't continue to put up any resistance and the spikes were still rushing at him. With no other option, Adam leaned his torso sideways and his body fell into the ground's embrace.
70... 67... 63... 59... 52!
Adam summoned the status and saw his mana decreasing quickly. It nosedived to 52 and lingered around for a few seconds before trickling down again.
51... 50... 49...
Though his injuries were healing, the effect of paralysis remained intact.
Cautious to the core, Adam pushed his perception to maximum and detected something moving in the swamp.
Seconds later, what he detected broke the mushy surface and raised its head. Its split tongue was sticking out of its mouth, happy after successfully subduing a prey.
'A snake?'
