Chapter 261 Stronger

Chapter 261 Stronger

[Bonus for 1200 GTs] The first time Sylas truly faced the Arctic Emperor Cobra's gaze, it felt like all of his blood had frozen cold. He realized that even if he could see the cobra's stats, it wouldn't give him the full picture. If anything, it would just give him a false impression of what he was facing.

For the first time, he was seeing a creature that could actually faintly resist his Beast Totem. Of course, it failed in the end. The Talent of a Legendary Path Profession couldn't be ignored by just any beast. But it told Sylas something else...

Maybe out there, somewhere, there was a beast of the Serpentes that really could ignore his Beast Totem's effects.

After a moment of shock, it felt as though something within Sylas had been provoked.

The mental pressure on him vanished, and he had the Basilisk King activate <Voice of a King> right then and there despite the fact it was being besieged.

Sylas made it to the Basilisk King's side in the next instant. Three ballista bolts appeared and twisted down.

The cobras were caught off guard, almost as though they only realized now that their target was Sylas.

Sylas picked one up by its tail and smashed it against a tree with all his might. He could feel the fibers of his torso stretching taut as though they might rip apart at any moment.

BANG!

Its head exploded into a rain of gore.

The Basilisk King's tail whipped it the moment it got some breathing room, shattering another one into a rain of blood and flesh.

By this point, the Arctic Emperor Cobra was no more than 20 meters away. Sylas could feel the full brunt of its presence in his visualization. It appeared more like a blazing bonfire than a creature, seeming amorphous and hard to spot until his actual eyes landed on it.

DOOM.

At the same time, a heavy shield appeared.

[Hero's Heart Shield (FF-)]

[Level: 10]

[Ability: Bulwark; Final Stand; Restore]

[Form a Hero Heart with your best warrior, use their Will to amplify the defenses of your troops. For every 100 points of Will, amplify Constitution of up to 20 warriors by 10%]

---

[Will: 1089]

In that moment, both Sylas' and the Basilisk King's Constitution increased by 100%. The Basilisk King alone almost hit quadruple digits, and a blazing golden aura began to pulse from it.

"Go."

Sylas had only just spoken when the Basilisk King dove in headfirst. It knew no fear as it unleashed a rain of carnage.

But that was when the situation changed.

Sylas felt it before he even saw it.

[Arctic King's Domain (FFF-) (Skill)]

[Special Damage: 50/second]

[Special Buff: +80% to all Ice-Poison Skills used]

The Arctic Emperor Cobra unleashed a Skill, and it was far stronger than when his son had used it.
