Volume 1: Dance of the Black Dragon Chapter 16: Into a Bitter Battle
Damn, Lao Sang has this ability? What a pleasant surprise.
Murphy was quite surprised when he looked at the giant skeleton dragon in the picture. Judging from its size, this giant skeleton dragon was almost as big as him, and its BOSS rank was only two levels lower than his. If he performed well, he might be able to destroy the opponent.
At the same time, the adventurers were all horrified. This situation was not in the script.
Only the Sword of Dawn remained calm, "Everyone, buff me! I'll take down the boss! Wait for three rounds before you can attack again."
At the command of the Sword of Dawn, the adventurers responded immediately.
All kinds of enhancement spells were thrown at the Sword of Dawn as if they were free.
Brute force!
Blessing of strength!
Blessings of courage!
Divine grace!
Mark of the Wild!
Lasting endurance!
The body of the Dawn Sword grew visibly larger, and it was covered in colorful light. It picked up the dragon-slaying sword and rushed towards the BOSS.
The skeleton dragon let out a roar and slapped with its claws, and the Sword of Dawn quickly rolled sideways.
Boom! The white bone dragon claw landed less than two meters away from him, bones splattered everywhere, and the Dawn Sword chopped the dragon claw, -421. Bone pieces flew everywhere, but the damage was not high.
The bone dragon slapped with another claw, and the Sword of Dawn rolled sideways again.
The dragon opened its mouth and bit down - Dragon Bite!
The Sword of Dawn did not retreat but advanced, rolling under the dragon's mouth.
Rising Dragon Slash! He soared into the air and slashed the bone dragon's jaw with his sword...
Seeing that the hatred was firmly established, the adventurers behind also began to attack remotely...
As he watched, Murphy's expression gradually froze. Something was wrong. How could this Dawn Sword be so good at dodging? It seemed that this guy was very familiar with the attack patterns of the dragon clan, almost knowing them like the back of his hand.
Dragons are different from humans. They can't do too many fancy moves in hand-to-hand combat, like human monks can do 360-degree spinning kicks, or human swordsmen can dance with their blades to perform dazzling and gorgeous sword moves.
But the dragon clan is different. They are so big and can’t hold weapons, and they only have a few types of attack modules.
Dragon claws swing, dragon tail sweep, dragon wings pounce, dragon bite (dragon mouth attack), and at most the dragon chariot propulsion, basically these are the attack modules that are used alternately.
Generally speaking, these few moves are enough. After all, the large size of the dragon means a large attack range. A dragon tail sweep can sweep more than ten meters away, and a dragon claw slap can cover a range of three or four meters.
Even for an adventurer of pure agility, it is difficult to avoid it.
But looking at the opponent's fighting posture, it seemed that he had it completely under control.
Although his dodging and moving around seemed thrilling, he was able to dodge the attack every time at the last minute, as if he had predicted it. It would be a miracle if he hadn't practiced before.
It seems that he has slayed many dragons in the past.
It doesn't matter. This guy has no shield. If he gets hit accidentally, he will be half dead. No matter how hard he dodges, he can't dodge every attack. It is said that undead are generally not susceptible to taunts, so why is Lao Sang still competing with him?
As expected, when the Skeleton Dragon saw that it couldn't take down the Sword of Dawn, it immediately rushed towards the group of adventurers.
The Sword of Dawn hurriedly chased after it from behind, trying to draw its hatred, but the Skeleton Dragon suddenly turned around and attacked it with its dragon claws.
This time, the Sword of Dawn had no time to dodge and was about to be hit, but he suddenly raised the giant sword and blocked it in front of him.
Bang! The huge dragon claws landed firmly on the giant sword, and the legs of the Dawn Sword were slammed into the ground by the huge force, but he did not fall down.
Block! A bright red number made Murphy stunned on the spot.
These two words seemed ordinary, but they surprised him more than the exciting fight just now.
In the game Skyworld, weapons can be used to parry, but not to block - only shields have the blocking function.
What is this concept ? This guy can actually use a weapon as a shield?
But if you look closely, the Dragon-Slaying Sword is more than two meters long and half a meter wide, made entirely of metal, like a door panel. Isn't it a natural shield? How can it be used like this?
Murphy's heart sank when he saw this. Could his melee ability be better than that of the skeleton dragon?
It should be higher. At least with Death Rage and the war beast form, it must be much more powerful than the Skeleton Dragon.
But I was quite confident before that I could defeat the opponent, but now I am not so sure.
The battle continues.
This giant skeleton dragon didn't seem to have any concept of vital points. No matter where it was hit, it would only drop some bone fragments and lose a little health. So after fighting for more than ten minutes, and being hit in the chest and skull many times, it was still able to fight, and only lost one-third of its health.
The Sword of Dawn also showed no signs of fatigue. Every time its condition dropped a little, the adventurers would immediately cast a dozen healing spells and buff spells, and it would instantly be full of energy .
The two sides fought back and forth, and the dragon's health and the adventurers' mana were steadily decreasing.
But in general, adventurers have more advantages. Adventurers can drink mana potions, but skeleton dragons have no means of recovery.
Finally, the skeleton dragon's health dropped to 50%.
The giant skeleton dragon swept its tail and forced back the Dawn Sword. His bones were broken and death energy was surging all over his body, and it was obvious that he was seriously injured.
'Stepping into Death' Santazak (Skeleton Dragon): "For... Lord Morpheus,... at any... cost. Wake up... the dead... sleeping warriors, you will fight for Lord Morpheus once again!"
The dragon wings spread out violently, the breath of death surged out of his body, and his blood volume dropped by another 10% in an instant.
Under the influence of the magic of death, the skeletons on the ground began to tremble, move , and combine together to form skeleton warriors.
They stretched their bones, twisted their skulls, made crackling sounds, picked up rusty swords and weapons from the ground, and then rushed towards the adventurers in groups.
The Dawn Sword's face darkened. He had not expected this move.
"I'll hold the boss back, you guys quickly clear out the monsters."
As he spoke, he swept the Sword of Dawn across, slashing the skeletons that were rushing towards him into pieces, and then rushed towards the already somewhat listless Skeleton Dragon. At the same time, the Midnight God of Magic and the adventurers also faced the skeleton army.
The archers shot arrows first, but they were embarrassed to find that their attacks had almost no damage to the skeletons. An arrow often went directly through the gaps in the bones, resulting in constant misses.
Occasionally hitting the bones, the damage is not high.
It was still the spellcasters who were quite powerful. With a row of magic spells, the skeletons were easily blown into pieces.
However, they soon discovered that things were not that simple. Under the influence of the magic of death, these shattered skeletons and broken bodies actually reassembled again and continued to revive.
"It's the magic of death! The magic of death can allow them to be resurrected again and again." An adventurer exclaimed.
"Do you think I didn't see it? Can you give me some useful suggestions?" The Midnight Mage shouted, "Priest, dispel it quickly!"
I shouted twice, but no one took any action.
"Black river water, disperse it quickly, aren't you a pastor?"
"I'm a war priest and I believe in Odin. Didn't you see that I'm holding a hammer?" This black river water man was wearing plate armor and holding a war hammer. He looked more like a warrior. He was hitting the skeletons one by one with the hammer.
"Kumquat Lemon, aren't you also a pastor?"
The priest of Kumquat Lemon shook his head and said, "I believe in the Mother Earth Goddess, and I don't have the skill to exorcise the undead, but I know this--"
As he spoke, he threw a rock ball out. The huge rock ball knocked over several skeletons, but the fallen skeletons immediately got up again.
The Midnight Mage was speechless. There were fifteen magic professions and four priests in the team, but not one of them could dispel the undead.
The abilities of the priests and priests in this game are related to the gods they believe in. Only gods of the Holy Light faction, such as the Sun God and the God of Light, can give their believers the power to dispel the undead.
This time, because the main target was the black dragon, the team's configuration was also designed to target the dragon's fire breath ability, so it was obviously a bit difficult to deal with this kind of emergency.
"God of Magic, why don't you use your ultimate move?"
Midnight Mage sighed helplessly, "The cooldown period isn't over yet."
The reason why Firestorm is so powerful is because it is a hero skill. However, hero skills are powerful would only be used once in a BOSS battle, and I would wait for the skill to cool down while clearing monsters on the way. I didn't expect the design of this dungeon to be so fucking inhumane. I spent the first hour clearing monsters and breaking through the maze, and the last three BOSS battles were all connected, and the first two BOSS battles were too short, which resulted in his skills not being cooled down yet.
