Chapter 77 - Second Floor Dungeon- Part 3

After receiving Peter's order, John walked towards the middle of the island. They didn't have time to waste, so he was prepared to admit defeat if he encounters the opponent he can't win instantly. When he reached at the middle of the island, blue light flashed in front of him and a humanoid figure emerged out of it.

'This feels like the VFX of a movie except, everything in front of me is real. This tower is really amazing.' Peter thought to himself when he saw the humanoid beast walking out of the blue light.

John stared at the humanoid beast and clenched his fist. The next moment, his internal energy and mana burst out together. But, the internal energy remained inside his veins while mana transformed into flames and encircled his body.

"Wrath of the Fire Serpent!"

John took a step forward and the flame encircled his wrist. It transformed in the shape of a serpent and created an immense heat around him. When John throws a punch, the fire serpent dashed out of his hand as if it wanted to bite the enemy.

Bang!

The humanoid beast stared at the fire serpent rushing towards him and raised his hand. His five fingers were opened and the moment fire serpent reached near him, he closed his fist. The fire serpent struggled in his hand and he smashed the fire serpent into pieces.

Seeing this, John's eyes shrunk as he shouted "I admit defeat!"

For a moment, the humanoid beast froze. The blue light flashed on his body and he disappeared.

[You have failed the level. Your island will drop ten times faster once it starts falling.]

Peter sighed a breath of relief. He had specifically told John to use of his strongest attack to determine the power of his opponent. And, he did what Peter said. But, both of them didn't expect the power of that humanoid beast to be strong.

Of course, John's attack was weak on its own. But, to crush it like that was still amazing. But, there was more than an expression of relief in his eyes. He also got better the information from this battle.

"I think this dungeon is going to be more difficult than we thought." Peter spoke as he made solemn expression.

"What makes you say that?" Zhao Ming stared at him and asked.

"When that humanoid beast blocked John's attack, he didn't even use any kinds of energy. He only used the raw strength. Since he is not a normal human, he should possess an amazing raw strength. But, there is still a large difference between a bird, a deer, a tiger, and an elephant."

"The man that John faced must be someone with the raw strength of an elephant. That means he must be from the elephant race. But, when the previous humanoid beast tried to block Alice's attack, he formed several feathers in his body which represents his race."

"Similarly, there could be a humanoid beast with the attack power of a tiger or a humanoid beast with the extraordinary abilities of the mythical beast."

Saying so, he turned his head at Alexa and said "Be careful! If my assumption is not wrong then we could encounter the problematic situation."

Alexa nodded her head and walked towards the middle. As she reached her spot, a humanoid figure emerged out of the blue light. He looked exactly the same as previous humanoid beasts but he had the bald head.

His skin seemed smooth as well. Peter narrowed his eyes and analyzed the humanoid beast. But suddenly, the humanoid beast rushed towards Alexa even before she could make a move. Alexa hurriedly released the green mana from her hand and released few blades out of it.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The humanoid beast moved his upper body and dodged those blades with ease. Seeing this, Peter shouted "Alexa, he is from the Snake Race."

When Alexa heard his words, she frowned and instantly sucked back her mana. She took out few small circular metallic balls and threw them towards the humanoid beast.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The humanoid figure saw those balls and instantly dodged them but, when those balls struck the ground, they exploded. The flames burst out and engulfed them inside. The power of explosion spread wide while Alexa retreated dozens of meters.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

But, she didn't stop and kept throwing away those bombs at the snake. Seeing this, Peter couldn't help but raise his thumb. She was basically exploiting the weakness of the snake.

Few seconds later,

[Congratulation on crossing the third level.]

Seeing this, Alexa froze and turned her head at Peter. At this moment, Peter was also surprised but he did expected this result when she threw those bombs. Those weren't normal bombs, even they could feel the power of the explosion from this far.

And, she struck the weakest point of the snake. Hence, it was an easy win for her. Peter nodded his head and called her back. After her, Zhao Ming walked towards the middle of the island.

He didn't know if his battle will be as easy as Alexa but he didn't have anything to hold him back. He took a deep breath and walked to his spot. As soon as he reached there, his opponent emerged out of the blue light.

When Zhao Ming saw his opponent, his eyes flashed with confusion. Because the opponent in front of him was same opponent that John faced. He couldn't help but turn his head at Peter. He took a deep breath and held his spear.

Whoosh!

But, suddenly the humanoid beast rushed towards Zhao Ming. When he stomped on the ground, he created five inches deep hole. His body weight and strength were something Zhao Ming expected but his speed was not something he calculated.

Because he never thought elephants can be fast. But, this speed was still something he could grasp in his eyes. He slightly moved to the left and dodged the punch of the humanoid beast. The next moment, he ducked and dodged the kick from the humanoid beast.

Whoosh!

The spear on his hand-rolled and stabbed towards that place of the humanoid beast. But, the humanoid beast raised his foot and kicked under the tip of the spear. His kick moved the spear up, escaping from it with ease.

"Blue Lotus Burning Heaven!"

Suddenly, the blue flames burst out of him and flowed to the tip of the spear. The humanoid beast was caught off guard by this attack because the flames gathered at the tip and formed lotus. When he twisted his wrist and pulled his spear, the lotus remained in the air and the next moment, it fell towards the humanoid beast.

Boom!

The humanoid beast raised his fist and smashed the blue lotus. But when his fist collided with it, the blue lotus exploded and engulfed the humanoid beast inside it.

Zhao Ming hurriedly retreated away from the explosion but suddenly, a figure rushed near him and smashed his fist at his back.

Bang! Thud! Thud!

Zhao Ming collided on the ground a few times until his body stopped. At this moment, he couldn't comprehend what just happened. But, he quickly turned his head and saw the humanoid beast with a few bruises rushing towards him.

Although the power of those flames hurt him, it didn't make much difference. Seeing this, Zhao Ming hurriedly stood up and raised his spear. The humanoid beast didn't stop rather released the black energy in his fist.

This black energy bulges his veins and the steam started coming out of him. He clenched his fist and released the strange aura. When Zhao Ming and Peter sensed this aura, both of them widen their eyes.

Because this aura was the same aura that the feathered beast released. It was the Power Intent.

"Heavenly Dragon Spear Skill- Will of the Golden Dragon!"

Zhao Ming stomped the end of the spear on the ground and burst out all of his internal energy and blue mana. Slowly, his blue mana merged with his internal energy. The next moment, the golden energy emerged out of him.

The golden energy rose to the sky and the immense amount of it formed the body of a golden dragon. The golden scale shone under the bright sun and the will of the golden dragon flowed into his spear.

He held the spear shaft with his left hand and the end with his right hand. He pulled his hand and thrust it with all of his strength.

"Great Immortal Breaking the Void!"

Suddenly, the humanoid beast roared as he clenched his fist. When he reached near Zhao Ming's spear, he stepped on the ground and paused his foot. But, the upper body was still moving towards the spear. He raised his fist and threw a punch.

The black energy formed a coating around his fist.

Bang!

When the spear and the fist collided, everything became silent for a moment. Peter and others couldn't even breathe, and the next moment, a huge impact swept them away. Not even Peter could remain on his foot.

At this moment, a panel appeared in the sky.
