Chapter 792 Wrath Of The Wind Guardian (II)
Chapter 792 Wrath Of The Wind Guardian (II)
?
Queen Tanya was successful at severing one of the dragon's hands. The severed hand fell alongside the chains holding it and produced a huge clang with the squelching flesh hitting the floor. As a result, one of the chains keeping the dragon in place has been removed.
"Sis! Idiot! What the heck?! Why did you cut the dragon's arm?! Now this dragon will possibly be able to break off the chains now that the bounds that keeping him here are now incomplete!"
"Why are you worrying that, Sis? Just kill it as fast as you can before it can create more chaos! Now, Bladeheart, I bet you are also itching to fight?"
I ready my weapon and nodded. "I am always ready to go."
Queen Tanya grinned and the two of us attacked the dragon.
GRAAAAAAHHHHH!
CRACK!
The chains on the remaining arm break to pieces and tried to slam the newly freed arm into Queen Tanya. I immediately moved into her defense and immediately changed my Versatile Weapon to a Shield and Spear, blocking the attack successfully before throwing the spear into the dragon's arm. Since the Spear is one of the seven deadly sins weapons, even the thick scale of the dragon did not save it from the spear as it pierces through the arm.
The dragon seemed to not feel the attack though it made a hole in its arm. It's more like it's not that painful compared to the cut on the other arm. Queen Tanya made a follow-up attack after I throw the spear and swish off her scythe to the dragon's fingers, but the dragon immediately solidify the scales on its arm, allowing the scythe to stop being able to cut through it.
"Tch... so even this dragon is capable of scale hardening, annoying bastard," Queen Tanya grinned even though she cursed the dragon.
The dragon opens its mouth and releases an attack of a strong gust of wind from its mouth. As soon as the wind attack was fired, the dragon's name is revealed.
-----------------
[Wind Guardian][Mini Boss]
Level ????
HP: ?????/??????
Trait: Dragon, Wind
----------------------
Oh, the wind guardian? Looks like the same fate will fall to this dragon. If I remember correctly, the people who dealt with the problem of the divine winds said they encountered a dragon that was in a berserk state, and in the end, they have to take it down or the dragon take them down.
According to the story as well, the reason the dragon is on a rampage is because the relic was stolen. Because the dragon's main purpose is to be sealed here alongside the relic responsible for the divine winds, the moment the relic is stolen, the dragon lost its main purpose as well which is why it is now going on a rampage.
Because the relic is out of our hands and we don't know where it is now, the only way to stop its rampage is indeed to take it down, otherwise, it will calm down once the relic is returned which is impossible right now. And even if we search for the relic while we leave the Wind Guardian alone for a while, it will eventually breach through this place and will wreak havoc all over the city and that will put all the people in the city at risk therefore, there is no other way for this dragon.
Queen Tori deploys multiple talismans into the area and activated them together.
"RELEASE!"
The talismans burn to ashes before releasing multiple old chains restraining the movement of the dragon.
"Go and attack it! I restrained its movements temporarily!" Queen Tori shouted.
But before we can even proceed, the dragon seems to have realized that it was being forced into containment and proceeds to break the chains like nothing.
"Looks like your chains were not strong enough Sis!" Queen Tanya jumped into the air once more and charges her scythe mid-air. It seems she is planning to try to at least cut off its body parts.
The dragon seems to realize what she was about to do as well. Before Queen Tanya can proceed to slice up, the dragon growls and a big transparent coat suddenly covers their bodies. Queen Tanya finished up her charges and immediately slice the dragon but the moment the blade touches the coat, it didn't even get to tear a hole from it.
From the looks of it, it's a coat made of magic. And it seems the attack it was anticipating was able to be blocked. Since this dragon is the wind, perhaps using electricity will do something to this guy? Let me give it a try.
I pulled out a scroll of [Lightning Bolt], a tier 3 upgrade of [Lightning], and the next upgrade for [Lightning Strike]. It's a strong ability but it takes a long time to charge up in real time so I don't want to use it as a skill and instead use the scroll version. Not only the charge time is removed, but it's also faster to use it for emergency situations. The only difference is that it loses a lot of damage output compared to the real deal since the original is much stronger than the scroll version.
Tearing the scroll into two, a magic circle appeared beneath the dragon and a cloud appeared above its head. It wasn't there before until I tore the scroll to pieces and in a few seconds, a big arc of lightning suddenly strikes down the dragon and I was right,
BZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTT!
GROOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRR!
The [Lightning Bolt] flashes down, striking the wind guardian and burning the wind guardian's transparent coat which seems to render the physical attacks useless.
Because the attack pierced through and electrocuted the dragon, the dragon fell down for a while staggered from the attack.
"Queen Tanya, Queen Tori, let's pile up on the dragon while it is down!"
"Good thinking Bladeheart!" Queen Tori nodded and released two shikigamis to attack.
"Alright then, let's get this dragon to know we are not just gonna let it do what it wanted to do. DIE!"
I changed my weapon into a cannon this time around. Some of my weapons have lower chances to do any damage to the scales of the dragon but a cannon is already well-tested by players to take down most if not all flying objects with ease. Yes, even dragons as well.
Queen Tanya continues to bombard some skills on the dragon though the dragon is trying to solidify itself just to stop her attacks that might go fatal if something goes wrong with the dragon's defenses which is why it seems the dragon is trying to increase its defense further.
I deployed the cannon in front of me before loading it with normal cannonballs. I fired the cannon and covered my ears as the cannon produced a heavy explosion, hitting the dragon and its current scales.
The shikigami of Queen Tori was also capable of removing the scales as well as they converted their hands using blunt-type weapons and hammers down the scales of the dragon, removing some of them in the process. Queen Tanya can't do decent damage after all if the bosses have scales that can harden at will so removal of them is the safest bet.
I continue to fire at the dragon using my cannon. Its Hp is slowly getting chipped away as the attacks didn't stop. Then... the dragon once again rises up, recovering from its previous injuries. But the moment it recovered, Queen Tanya did not let it recover and silently delivered a nice cut to the dragon, causing it to wail in pain as the remaining arm of the dragon has been cut off, removing the second chain as well.
"ROOOOOAAAAAARRRRR"
A deafening pain can be heard and the moment the defeating pain echoed all over, a data panel announcement appeared in my vision. And from the looks of it, even Queen Tanya and Queen Tori got stats as well.
[You have been inflicted with Draco Authority. Entities that have not received a blessing of a Draco himself or herself then get affected by the side effects like the following:
HP DOWN
MANA DOWN
Elemental resistances are down as well.]
"Be careful guys! Our defenses and HP have been lowered too much! One wrong move and we will be killed immediately!"
Queen Tori and Queen Tanya immediately jumped away from the dragon, evading an attack that the dragon was just about to do.
I continue to fire cannonballs at the dragon. It's not that strong of a damage dealer but after every damage that comes from the attacks of the cannon, the cannonball chips away the sources of the dragon's defense, the scales. It gets to have some scale removal as well, removing its chances to be able to defend itself from the next attacks.
Because of the barrage of cannonballs, I fired that directs through the bosses, the dragon cannot properly defend itself this time around. This time, the boss will no longer be capable of escaping.
