I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Chapter 532: Shooting Venoms

One of the scorpions looked more aggressive than the others. It suddenly reared back. Its tail that glistening in the harsh desert sun coiled like a spring. It then aiming directly at Erend.

Without warning, it whipped forward with blinding speed and releasing a jet of thick black liquid from its stinger. The venom shot through the air like a bullet, the liquid twisting and spiraling as it closed in on Erend.

Erend barely had time to react. Instinctively, his body responded as his Dragon Scales shimmered to life, covering his skin in a protective layer of shimmering fiery red scales.

The black liquid hit him dead on, splattering across his scales. A sharp hissing sound erupted as the venom sizzled on contact, sending up small plumes of smoke.

Erend could feel the warmth seeping through the scales but didn't flinch. The venom might have been powerful but it wasn't enough to penetrate his defenses. However, he can tell that its actually pretty strong because he actually feel the warm feeling and the hissing sound of it try to melt his scales. If it just weaker attack his scales wouldn't even be scratched.

"Trying to burn me, huh?" Erend muttered under his breath. His eyes narrowing as he glared at the scorpion. He flexed his arms, the scales absorbing the impact without much damage.

On the other side, Eccar was facing a similar attack. Another scorpion emboldened by its earlier action of its friend whipped its tail in the same manner, releasing a stream of black venom toward him.

Eccar grinned, already anticipating the move when he glanced at Erend. Like Erend, his Earth Dragon partial form were already activated so his body now encased in thick, dark green scales that shimmered under the desert heat.

The venom splashed against Eccar's scales producing the same hissing sound as it tried and failed to burn through. Eccar chuckled darkly, brushing off the liquid as if it were nothing more than dirt.

"Is that the best you've got?" Eccar taunted, wiping the last of the venom from his arm. Though, like Erend, he also can tell that this venom is pretty strong.

But the scorpions weren't done. The initial attack had only been the beginning. In unison, as if communicating through some unseen means the remaining scorpions reared back, their tails arching high above them.

Black venom gathered at the tips of their stingers, shimmering. Then, almost simultaneously they all unleashed their venom, shooting it like bullets toward Erend and Eccar.

The air was filled with the sound of rapid-fire hissing, as dozens of streams of venom sliced through the air, fast and concentrated like high-velocity projectiles. The speed of the venom was astonishing, moving as fast as bullets toward them.

Erend and Eccar moved quickly, dodging and weaving through the onslaught. They don't think that the venom is enough to burn through their scales, but they won't take any chances while all of them fired at once like that.

Yet, there were too many and some of the venom splashed against their scales. However, their Dragon defenses held firm. The warm sensation from the venom was persistent, a reminder of the scorpions' power, but neither Dragonborn showed any signs of in pain.

The venom hissed and bubbled where it landed on their scales, trying in vain to eat through their mystical armor that protected their bodies. Smoke rose in thin tendrils from where the venom made contact but the damage was very minimal.

Still, both Erend and Eccar could feel the heat of the venom, a faint tingling that told them the scorpions were far from ordinary beasts.

Eccar shook his head, his grin never fading. "They're getting desperate. Too bad for them."

Erend glanced at the scorpions. "Let's show them what real power looks like."

With their Dragon Scales fully activated, they prepared to retaliate.

Erend and Eccar exchanged a quick glance, their eyes gleaming with a shared idea.

"Let's end this," Erend said.

Eccar nodded. "Time to show them."

In an instant, both Dragonborns unleashed their wings. With a powerful beat, they shot forward. Their move was so fast that they seemed to blur. Sand kicking up in great clouds as they soared toward the massive scorpions.

Erend reached the closest scorpion first. His fist connected with the creature's exoskeleton.

The impact was horrible. His punch shattered through the thick carapace with ease, the shockwave of his strike rippling through the air. The giant scorpion let out a screech as its body crumpled under the force, collapsing into the sand in a heap of broken limbs and dark ichor.

Eccar wasn't far behind. He landed a blow to another scorpion's side. The ground around them rumbled as the Earth Dragon channeled his full strength.

His punch tore through the creature's armored hide, reducing it to a lifeless husk in an instant. The creature crumbled under his power, its segmented body breaking apart like brittle stone.

One after another, the two Dragonborns moved with terrifying efficiency.

Each strike they delivered was fatal. The scorpions, though fierce and well-armored, stood no chance against their real power.

Erend's fists burned with flames as he tore through the beasts. While Eccar, with his mastery over earth, used the sands beneath them to further empower his attacks.

The creatures began to fall, unable to keep up with the overwhelming force.

The desert air was soon filled with the sounds of cracking exoskeletons and hissing venom that splattered uselessly against their Dragon Scales. The scorpions' deadly pincher and venomous attacks became irrelevant in the face of their power.

Erend slammed his fist into another scorpion, shattering its entire form with a single hit, then spun to deliver a powerful kick to another that had lunged at him from behind. It too fell, its body crumbling under the sheer force.

Eccar had punched a final scorpion so hard its body was driven deep into the shifting sands, the ground swallowing it whole as if it had never existed.

Within minutes, the battlefield was silent once more. The dozen scorpions that had once surrounded them were now nothing more than broken remains scattered across the desert floor.

Erend and Eccar stood tall amidst the carnage, their breaths steady and their eyes scanning the now quiet battlefield.
