Chapter 88: Almost Got Combo’d to Death, Good Thing I’m More Skilled
As the first wave of black vines spawned three monsters, more small black buds began to bloom beneath the lava.
Thick vine barriers separated the lava from the monsters, and those ball-like creatures continued to launch attacks at Viktor.
Although they couldn't effectively damage Viktor, they caused considerable trouble for his sustained output.
The breeding ground gradually produced tiny flying monsters.
They were like bats, but instead of sharp teeth on their heads, they had long, straw-like mouthparts.
Black liquid was squeezed out from their constantly expanding and contracting abdomens, stored in their brains.
When they could no longer bear it, they would suddenly turn that black liquid into a rapid arrow, piercing towards Viktor.
At first, those fragmented black liquids couldn't even graze Viktor, but as time passed, the bats around Druja gradually increased, and the black liquid became like a rain of arrows with each attack.
Finally, the dense liquid grazed Viktor once.
His lava coat made a 'sizzling' sound, emitting wisps of white smoke.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com
"What terrifying corrosive power!"
Cocotte, hiding behind a floating rock, felt her heart clench with worry at the sight.
Although Viktor could free his hands from the constant monster collisions, how could he avoid the sky full of black arrows?
Viktor was also considering this point.
Although the mage's robe generated a shield that could resist these corrosive acids,
Even the strongest shield couldn't absorb all the attacks.
Restricted, Viktor could only constantly dodge and evade, while resisting the incoming wheel-like monsters and avoiding the black liquid.
He could only spare a thin stream of magic to restrain those flying monsters.
If he stopped the firepower and let Druja find an opening, it would only allow it to start regenerating life.
That way, Viktor's current efforts would be wasted.
Sparing a magic spell to deal with the bat monsters, the erosion of Druja's life became somewhat slow, even matching Druja's recovery ability.
In Viktor's eyes, Druja's life value was neither increasing nor decreasing at this point.
Before him, it was still a fierce battle.
In the game, to deal with such a powerful boss, it usually required a team of multiple players. The frontline warriors would withstand those wheel monsters and corrosive attacks.
The mages at the rear would take advantage of the gaps to constantly restore the warriors' life and continuously output damage to the boss.
Although only mages could enter Endymion, as the plot developed, after Druja occupied Endymion, all professions could enter the City of Mages.
Through the mages' teleportation array, they could reach the seventh layer of the dungeon.
But now there was only Viktor alone. Although there were two mages beside him, they were of no help to him at all.
After all, they had never even seen Druja before, and rashly joining would only drag him down.
He had two ways to solve the current predicament in his mind:
If he quickly dealt with those small monsters, it would indeed reduce a lot of unnecessary harassment.
Taking advantage of the time before Druja could summon the second wave of small monsters, he could launch a full-force attack on its weak points. However, this method would only drag out the battle line longer.
The Wood Calamity itself was good at prolonging the battle to wear down players' spirits. This way, it would be falling into the trap.
But the second method could only be done by some high-end players.
Ignore the harassment attacks of small monsters and focus on attacking Druja.
Because of Druja's summoning mechanism, if the first wave of minions wasn't cleared, or wasn't cleared below a certain number,
Druja wouldn't summon small monsters again.
It was as if it had swallowed the surrounding sounds and smells into its stomach, the entire void became extremely silent.
Vega stood on Viktor's shoulder, only seeing Viktor's mouth seem to say something, but it couldn't hear anything.
The next second, the powerful energy like a surging flood turned into seven giant snakes howling towards Viktor! As if wanting to stuff the entire Endymion into its mouth!
Every space the giant snakes passed through seemed to be deprived of vitality, even the mere void could make people feel that the surroundings had fallen into a fated silence.
Looking at the sky-high giant snakes twisting towards him, Viktor took out Ulust and held it in the air.
At the same time, a thin thread connected between Cocotte, Haim, and Viktor.
"[Foolish and hazy God of Fire, forget the prayers of the mortal world, bestow upon me truth and courage—]"
"[When the scorching sun hangs high, the primordial fire burns away illusions—!]"
Along with Viktor's mysterious chanting, Cocotte and Haim behind him were instantly dumbfounded.
What kind of blasphemous chanting was that!?
Although they thought so in their hearts, their hands poured even more mana into the barrier.
As Viktor shouted, the world around seemed to freeze.
A tiny fireball gradually condensed in his hand, turning into a faint flame flying between the seven giant snakes, aiming directly at Druja.
Time began to flow again, the giant snakes frantically colliding with the barrier, under the huge impact, many tiny cracks appeared on the barrier.
"Viktor! Hurry! We... can't hold on much longer!"
Cocotte closed her eyes and could only urge Viktor, who was standing there in a daze, her heart filled with final despair.
Haim and she instantly lost all their mana, perhaps due to the huge demand of Viktor's magic, the two now felt as if they had been drained.
The ocean-like giant snakes carrying silence were about to completely swallow Viktor in the next second.
But for some unknown reason, they suddenly stopped in mid-air.
"What a pity, Druja, in the end, it's still me,"
"Who's more skilled."
The seven sky-high giant snakes began to be engulfed by red from the head closest to Viktor, and the natural energy gradually dissipated into the void. The seven giant snakes actually turned into a sky full of demonic flames!
They completely scattered, turning into a fiery dragon carrying hope and pressure, charging towards Druja again!
The Wood Calamity, which had fallen into weakness, no longer had the strength to resist such powerful high-level magic again.
The moment that tiny flame touched itself, all the energy in its body seemed to completely lose its connection with nature.
For some reason, its chest became unbearably hot. Druja stood there in a daze, only able to watch itself being completely swallowed by the fire dragon.
[War Magic — God's Arrow of Avatist]
Boom!
A white light shot towards the sky, breaking through the seven layers of heaven, straight to the firmament.
.......
Aurelian, already lying on the floating rock, lazily lay back on it, staring at the sky.
She had been waiting for Viktor to return.
The starry night sky was very tempting, like the God of Beauty had spread picked-up crystals all over the canvas.
The next second, a violent white light tore through this wonderful starry sky.
Aurelian sat up abruptly, looking at the white light towering into the universe before her, incredibly surprised.
With little stars in her eyes, she excitedly said:
"Wow!"
"So beautiful!"
