I Hate Systems

Chapter 928 Our Hero

The Bone Dragon was a mighty creature, feeling the hundred-metre-tall crack to feel too tight for it to emerge from.

The Orc-Dragon was smaller than the Bone Dragon, but in this setup, when it stood, it barely crossed a hundred metres. So, it was taller than the Bone Dragon's eye level, allowing Ying to look down on it from above.

With a hundred percent fusion, he gained the ability to become the Orc-Dragon itself, observing his overall abilities experience a jump in power.

And unlike the awkward form the Orc-Dragon displayed during his attack at the Bone Dragon before, with an elongated, unbalanced neck, it was completely different now.

A hulking 120-metre-tall humanoid figure with arms as thick as its thigh. A short neck barely twenty metres long, flexible to allow him to turn his head in any direction he saw fit without any problems. A body covered with tough dragon scales, followed by even tougher armour on its hands, legs, and head.

Its two horns glinted with a suffocating presence as its scaly eyes stared at its opponent. This was the Orc-Dragon's true form, that of an S-Rank Monster. It required a team of Hunters to deal with a monster on the same level. So, Ying could now be said to be one of the strongest in the world.

At present, Ying and the Bone Dragon were on the same level. Though of course, he found it difficult to maintain this form for more than a couple of seconds, for this was his first transformation.

So, before his transformation came undone, he unleashed the final Skill that he felt difficulty using before.

Skill—Orc-Dragon Roar!

Originally, he had assumed it was a Skill like the Lion's Roar that worked on stunning the opponents. But only now did he realise that it was a breath attack.

The reason it was called the Orc-Dragon Roar was that, unlike a dragon's breath, it wasn't a beam-based attack but a radially launched one. And now, he unleashed it on the Bone Dragon from point-blank range.

Boom!

A wave erupted out of his mouth that spread radially outward like a vapour cone and slammed into the crack, for a moment widening it in response to the sheer force.

The Bone Dragon experienced the brunt of the impact with its face, sent flying into the crack as the Lich on its back was hurled further away.

The three S-Rank Hunters under its control formed a defensive barrier around it to defend against the attack while it hovered in the air, expressing a murderous rage.

The attack also slammed into the horde of undead army, shattering their bones like brittle charcoal pieces as the shockwaves devastated the surrounding region.

"Huff…haah!" Ying collapsed in the centre of the crater that formed as a result of his attack, now in his human form, utterly exhausted, watching water gush towards him from a broken underground water pipe.

With the Bone Dragon no longer applying pressure, the crack began to close rapidly. Upon seeing this, the Lich tried to intervene, unleashing a spell that condensed a pair of deathly hands that held the closing crack.

"Oh no, you don't!" The prodigy A-Rank Hunter jumped into the scene and unleashed the projection of a tiger oozing cold essence that slammed into the pair of hands and shattered them. The Lich was unable to retaliate while the Bone Dragon was sprawled deeper in the dimension.

At this time, upon seeing the crack closing fast, one of the three S-Rank Hunter skeletons rushed out as a flash of light and made a light jump before unleashing the projection of a deathly tiger to counter the icy tiger.

The A-Rank prodigy Hunter's expression was solemn as he muttered, "So, you fell under the Lich's control…"

"Dad."

He clasped his hand and pointed his finger forward, unleashing the projection of a phoenix that slammed into the deathly tiger, stopping its approach as he evaded in a hurry, watching a sword beam miss his head by an inch.

"I'll put an end to your suffering soon, dad." The A-Rank Hunter muttered, clenching his hand into a fist as he watched the crack close fully, "Just you wait."

He collapsed to the ground and rolled to the centre of the crater, exhausted as he had pushed himself too much to unleash the ultimate techniques he had inherited.

"Thanks for clutching at the end." Ying extended his hand, propping the teenager up, "I'm Ying."

"Call me Noll." The teenager sighed as he said, staring at the crater around him, "To think you were an S-Rank Hunter. Why did you hide the fact from the Hunter Association?"

"I didn't hide it," Ying smiled wryly, "I surpassed my limit when I was desperate before. Thankfully, it paid off."

Ying stared at the helicopters revolving in the sky, letting out a smile of relief, "Thankfully, we averted the crisis."

"We won!"

"We survived!" The remaining Hunters began to celebrate once the last of the undead monster was slain. As for the Lizardmen, they avoided leaving their marshland for the moment as they couldn't adapt to fight in the concrete jungle beyond.

Using the chance, the Hunter Association took the opportunity to cordon off the area and set up barricades, working in full swing to control the damage.

"Sir Ying…" A staff approached Ying the moment he climbed out of the crater, introducing himself, "I'm Inspector Ross from the Hunter Association. I was the one who telecasted everything live."

"Thank you for that." Ying said gratefully, "If you hadn't done that, it would have been impossible to survive this disaster."

That was indeed the truth. If not for the Hunters holding back the undead army, Ying wouldn't have obtained a clear shot at the Bone Dragon. That would only result in a failure of their mission, leading to the destruction of the city, and eventually their entire country.

"No, I should be the one to thank you." Inspector Ross bowed hurriedly, "If not for your initiation, we couldn't have rallied everyone. It's thanks to the strength you displayed that we had hope to do something about this."

He then spoke with a respectful bow, "Please allow me to thank you on behalf of our city and in extension, our country."

"You're our Hero."
