"Wha… what the fuck is this nonsense? What the fuck is this boss?!"
An assassin wielding a worn out dagger swore as he looked back and forth between the carnage and the boss hovering in the sky. His eyes were full of anger. "How is this design acceptable? All my guildmates died because of this bullshit?"
With those words, he pulled out a return scroll, crushed it and began teleporting back to his city.
……
Bang!
I wasn’t going to allow him though. My Ghost Spirit War Boots flattened some tiny rocks as I charged toward the assassin while shouting, "Assassin’s Creed! You think you can leave after killing our guild members!?"
That’s right, it was none other than Assassin’s Creed himself. He had an item with a super-long invincibility time, or he would have died to Strella’s forbidden spell already. I was going to finish the job, however. He might be able to contribute in the fight against Strella, but after everything he had done, I would rather he died than to keep him alive nearby.
I aimed my left palm at Assassin’s Creed and shackled him immediately with God Binding Art. Then, I immediately threw my sword at his chest and pierced it for a massive amount of damage—
472828!
I had activated Resurrection Art a couple of times, and the attack boost had gotten to the point where Coiling Dragon Revolution did noticeably more damage than normal. There was no chance a leather-armor player like Assassin’s Creed would be able to stop it, and he didn’t. With a flabbergasted look on his face, he died before he could turn invisible.
……
The few remaining Chinese players stared at the powerful Strella the Dark Magma with dumbfounded expressions. One of them asked with a tinge of hysteria in his voice, "Lu Chen… can we leave, Lu Chen?"
I replied, "Don’t wait on my account!"
They looked incredibly relieved as they crushed their return scrolls and disappeared from the Dragon God Main Hall. I didn’t begrudge them for their cowardice because one, their aid was utterly irrelevant against a boss like Strella and two, I had no grudge with them. Anyway, should I continue this futile battle, or should I turn off the Resurrection Art and meet up with the others at the graveyard?
Speaking of which, the graveyard must be jam-packed with players right now. I bet it painted a pretty interesting sight.
……
"Hey brat!"
Strella suddenly focused his attention on me. He was smiling, but his eyes were filled with killing intent. "You are the one who released me from my seal. Did you not know that a true Holy Giant Dragon can assume a human form? If so, does my true form terrify you? Come! I will crush your body and send you to the afterlife to join your fellow adventurers!"
He swooped down again and swung his flaming claw at me. Both his form and his power were many times more imposing than Lucifer’s. Unwilling to test my luck, I cast both God Binding Art and Cold of the Nine Provinces in hopes of immobilizing him!
MISS!
MISS!
I knew this might happen, but it hurt my soul to see the misses anyway. I immediately shifted to plan B by assuming Guard stance and activating Cyan Dragon Scale!
Bang!
The impact rocked my body and dealt over 700k damage to me despite the successful Guard. Without Pure Love’s buffs, both my Defense and max HP were much lower than what they could’ve been. Just over 2 million HP wasn’t enough to hold back Strella...
The supposedly impenetrable halo that surrounded the Cyan Dragon Shield wobbled a little. I myself had skidded at least a dozen or so meters away even after I had plunged my sword into the ground. Clearly, the impact wasn’t a comfortable one. There was no rest for the wicked, however. The second I could move without tripping myself, I activated Ghost Spirit Step Art and dashed sideways as quickly as possible.
"Roar!"
A jet of draconic flames turned the spot I had been at a moment ago into a raging inferno. The breath was so great that even the equipment on the ground was melted into nothing. I had no idea that the Dragon God’s breath could melt equipment until just now!
That was just one part of its attack, however. Before I knew it, my vision turned dark, and my breath was suddenly stuck in my throat. It was Strella’s tail swinging toward me like a giant whip and landing for another 1.1 million damage. Thank goodness I had activated both Heavenly River Transformation and Cyan Dragon Scale, or the attack would’ve killed me already!
……
"Jiejie…"
Strella cackled sinisterly. "What’s wrong, brat? Where is your earlier attitude? Come, cream of the human adventurers. Live as long as you can so you may show me the pinnacle power of an ant! I’ve been trapped in Dragon God Cave for over ten thousand years, and I absolutely could use tough prey like you as a toy!"
Bang...
After the tail caught me by surprise, I was sent flying across the air until I slammed into something hard. It was the black Holy Giant Dragon’s corpse, Lucifer—wait, what? She wasn’t dead yet! I could see that her body was shaking a little, and her eyes were wide open. Strella had nearly turned her head into mincemeat, and yet somehow she still clung onto life. Even better, the bitch was trying to kill me with her dragon breath!
"Just die already!"
I growled and jumped up Lucifer’s back. I did a side-flip in midair before landing Burning Blade Slash + Universe Break combo on her neck, tearing her mutilated body one last time and finally killing her. She let out a groan, and her eyes turned glassy. Then, golden light surrounded my body and carried me into the next level. I never thought I would get the last hit like this, but I wasn’t going to complain about it. Unfortunately, Lucifer didn’t drop any equipment. Strella’s interference probably had something to do with it.
Strella was completely unmoved by his ex-wife’s death. "Whore. You should’ve died a long time ago!"
……
Crack!
The moment Lucifer died, an indigo blade pierced through her stomach from the inside and split it in half, causing blood, innards and a certain blood-drenched warrior to flood out into the open. After the warrior shook himself a little and wiped away the blood covering his face, he looked at me and let out a surprised cry, "Heavens! Why are you here, Lu Chen? Were… were you the one who saved me? Fuck, thank you so much, man! I can’t even begin to tell you how disgusting it is to be stuck inside a dragon’s stomach…"
The warrior was of course Warsky. Somehow he had survived being digested, and he even had 32% HP. It was most likely thanks to the Immortal Blade.
Before I could say a word, another stabbing noise caught my attention. I turned just in time to see a fiery sword piercing Lucifer’s back and splitting it in half. A human hand thrust out of the opening, and another blood-drenched player with a fire dragon perched on his shoulder climbed out into the open. He glanced at me and Warsky before asking, "What happened? Why are there so many dead bodies? Huh. Luo River God of the Capital, Moonkiss, Legendary Brave, Beiming Xue and even Wind Fantasy are dead?"
I was too flabbergasted to say anything.
Warsky asked, "When did you get swallowed by this dragon, Candlelight Shadow?"
Yep. It was Candlelight Shadow. He uttered with a disgusted expression on his face. "While I was falling down the cliff, I took a hit from a Blood Hook Dragon and was swallowed by this dragon right after. Ugh, this stench…"
Warsky grinned. "Eh, I don’t think it smells that bad. I was somewhere close to its heart, and it smelled like Turkish kebab since Barrier Breaks kept striking that spot…"
I couldn’t stop my mouth from twitching. "Your taste is seriously hardcore, dude!"
……
Candlelight Shadow resummoned his mount and watched the flying Dragon God in the air. "Is that Strella the Dark Magma? Who is this dead dragon then?"
I replied, "She was Strella’s wife."
Warsky asked, "Is Strella the one who killed everyone?"
I replied again, "Yeah!"
……
Warsky brandished the Immortal Blade and cackled. "Well, it doesn’t matter. Let’s cooperate and take out Strella together, shall we?"
That day must have been an interruption day or something, because a sharp spike exploded from Warsky’s chest before I could say anything in reply. It was one of the sharp spikes on Strella’s wings. Somehow, the boss had circled behind the warrior while we were talking and ambushed him. Unfortunately, it was powerful enough to delete all of his remaining HP.
I replied in a sure tone, "Sorry, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen."
Warsky collapsed to his knees and died with a sad expression on his face. Unfortunately, he dropped a chest armor instead of the Immortal Blade. On a related note, both Candlelight Shadow and I had shifted our position a little the second Warsky ate the fatal blow. Had Warsky dropped his Immortal Blade, we would’ve fought each other to seize it no matter the situation.
"Let’s do this!"
Candlelight Shadow abruptly spurred his mount forward and charged toward Strella from the side. He must have no idea how powerful Strella was, or he never would have chosen such a direct approach!
Actually, scratch that. I myself couldn’t think of any another way to do this.
So, I charged toward Strella from a different direction.
Strella let out a sneering roar before swiping left and right in quick succession. Candlelight Shadow and his mount were sent flying across the air, and I myself was knocked backward like a cannonball...
"Motherfucker!"
Candlelight Shadow growled and fired his Ghost God Prophecy at the boss. After the debuff had taken effect, he activated Heavenly River Transformation and landed Pangu’s Axe right on the boss's neck. Unfortunately, even the Ancient Divine Skill couldn’t do more than 700k+ damage to Strella. It was nowhere enough to kill the powerful boss.
In the end, dragon breath overwhelmed Candlelight Shadow, and he fell off his mount and died. He hadn’t even used a card yet, so there was no chance he could’ve survived Strella’s pummeling.
……
Pu!
While Strella was killing Candlelight Shadow with its breath, I seized the opportunity to target its reverse scale and weak point, at the same time lowering its Defense with Purple Frost Concentration. The skill worked extremely well, but it also angered Strella instantly!
"Do you want to die that much, brat?!"
BANG! My entire person literally sank about a meter into the floor, and my bones felt like they might fall apart from the impact. I tried to Guard with the Cyan Dragon Shield, but Strella managed to stun me after a couple of strikes before firing its breath straight at my face. It roared furiously, "I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!"
This time, it twisted its claws and pummeled me again and again with both arms. Holy shit, I thought this kind of shit only happens in anime!
Strella attacked me relentlessly even after I had revived twice. You would think it would give up after I had been pummeled completely into the underground, but no, the son of a bitch actually dug into the ground like a mole just so that he could hit me some more!
I felt like giving up at that moment. I mean, what else could I possibly do to turn this around? It was just a waste of levels at this point.
