Conquer - Chapter 141
It seems that we need to hurry up. This battlefield and that monster Jormungandr sent chills down to my spine. Even Zieglind was terrified. But right now we have to focus. Eliminate all enemies in a short time. Because I don’t think that the two of them can hold of Jormungandr.
“Precia!” Rize snapped me back to reality. “The elder dragon, we can see it from here. But the so-called Umibozu isn’t here. What should we do?”
“Let’s go! We don’t have time to search for the Umibozu. Our objective is to kill the monsters quickly and retreat. The longer we fight them, the longer Zeta and Zieglind will suffer while holding back the World Serpent.
We all flew to the scene and this elder dragon’s fire breath managed to even burn the seas with it as the obvious factor being the water on fire.
“I’ll be staying here. Dispel Gazer Form. Inventory.” Rize then pulled out Hou Yi’s bow. “I’ll do my best to support you two.”
“Got it. Precia, let’s go.”
The dragon was flying in the air, breathing fire and releasing chaos everywhere it goes. We can fly too but our fighting skills will be limited while in the air.
A piercing light came from Rize’s side and it pierced through the elder dragon’s body. The light then shone brightly and slowly wrapped around the dragon’s body like a net. The dragon’s flapping stopped and it soon fell to the ground. This must be Rize’s doing.
So the only thing we can do is lay out everything on this dragon.
“Come, Pugilist Gauntlets, SEISMIC SLAM!” Yefa smashed the ground and the ground rumbled and as if the world had split itself creating a rupture on the ground. The dragon fell in it and has been stuck there.
Me and Yefa looked at each other and nodded. It’s time to blast everything we can at the dragon.
“Come, Baneful Sword and Dominion!” I jumped at the dragon and tried to slash its neck open. “Urk!” It’s tougher than I’ve expected.
“Move!” Yefa commanded and I obeyed. “Armor Penetration! Stance Change, Tai Chi!” Yefa then punched the dragon’s neck which slammed it down to the ground causing another quake but all she could do was create a small wound on its neck.
The dragon was flailing around its wings and moving around its body trying to break free of the seal placed on it and the attacks it was taking.
I tried to worsen the wound by digging my sword into the wound Yefa opened. The dragon loudly screeched.
It broke free of the seal and flew again to the air.
But we were then suddenly encased in a large box that covered us all. I then heard Rize, “Law Breaker Number One, Remove the ability of flight!”
And as soon as the dragon was about to fly in the air, its wings suddenly didn’t work and it fell down right back at the ground.
Both I and Yefa signed a thumbs up on Rize. “Nice!”
The dragon roared loudly that knocked us back away from it. The dragon then rushed at us with its claws smashing and slashing everything that came near it.
Yefa dodged it easily while I got some minor injuries. It was too fast for its gigantic size and I didn’t expect that.
The dragon then raised its head as if preparing for something.
Yefa noticed and knew what this meant, “Run! NOW!”
The dragon made a gigantic fireball by gathering mana.
“LAW BREAKER!” Rize acted again, “NUMBER TWO! Fire spells aren’t allowed!” The dragon’s generated fireball suddenly disappeared. “Ugh…” Rize then coughed up blood.
I looked at Yefa, she nodded and she understood. I left her there to go to Rize. “Are you okay?”
“Y- yeah… I didn’t think that that spell would take up all my mana in an instant.”
“All of your… Rize, you’re only allowed to shoot arrows now. DON’T cast any spells. You know what happens when one runs out of mana and uses a skill don’t you?”
“I’m sorry I couldn’t be of help. This Law Breaker can only last for so long. Use it well. Please.”
“This is already a lot of help. Just use arrows, don’t you dare use a skill. I’ll be going back now.” I then flew to Yefa’s location but something was wrong. I couldn’t fly.
“Law Breaker applies to everyone in this area. You both also can’t use fire skills and fly.”
“I see. Thanks for the information. I’ll be going now. Really.” I jumped back down and faced the dragon. “Yefa,” I looked at her. “We can’t use flight and fire skills. Rize’s skill applies to everything in this place.”
“Well most of my skills are fire based…” Yefa looked at her fists.
“It can’t be helped. Dragons are mostly users of fire. This is the best we can get.”
“Got it. Then I’ll use this. Dispel.” Yefa dispelled her Gazer form. “Sinner’s Punisher!” A black gauntlet spawned on her hands. She jumped in the air and punched the dragon and it sent it flying. The skin of the dragon on its face suddenly broke like it was armor. And Yefa did this in one punch with this new weapon of hers.
“That’s amazing…” I couldn’t help but be in awe. “Then I’ll do the same. Dispel.” I put out my Gazer form. “Unruly Gemstone!” My eyes turned into crystals. A hilt then appeared as soon as I transformed my eyes. I pulled out the hilt and it revealed a sabre sword and my Unruly Gemstone eye returned back to normal.
Its hilt covered in beautiful engravings of flowers and the blade itself covered in a beautiful color scarlet. Just like my Unruly Gemstone eye. But it’s not just that. “Retract.” The blade itself disappeared and only the hilt remained. “Flail!”
And a long chain appeared and connected to the hilt. I swung this long chain of flail and it wrapped itself around the dragon’s neck and I began to pull it hard towards us.
The dragon couldn’t fly, couldn’t move, and couldn’t cast many of its strongest spells. The only thing we have to do is blast it with everything we’ve got!
“Do it! YEFA!” I began to restrict the neck of the dragon to prevent it from casting spells using my flail.
“Got it!” Yefa jumped in front of the dragon’s face and punched it again.
“URK!” Her blow was so powerful that it’s making it difficult for me to make the dragon stay in its place.
Yefa stood on top of its head and forced it to open its eyes and she punched the bare eyes of the dragon completely blinding it. The dragon was flailing everywhere doing what it can to get out of my bind. Yefa fell off to the ground since she lost her balanced. The dragon then roared incredibly loudly as if crying of pain.
“RIZE!” I called out to her. She couldn’t do anything with her arrows since she can’t penetrate its skin. “HOLD THIS!”
“Got it!” Rize rushed to me and held my weapon.
I jumped on the chain and began to run to the dragon. “Gazer form, come, Baneful Sword and Dominion!” My other sword with Rize won’t disappear since I’m not the one equipped with it. I went ahead and stabbed the other eye but my power wasn’t enough. I couldn’t pierce its eyes even though it’s the softest part of its body.
I jumped down and just tried to attack its body where the heart is located. “Unruly Gemstone!” I began to search where the heart is. “Yefa! This part!” She came and punched it with all her might and the dragon was barely moving. Even Rize is having trouble taking the shock of Yefa’s punches.
Yefa broke down the dragon’s ‘armor’ but it’s actually its thick skin breaking down so I used this opportunity to pierce through its chest but my power isn’t enough. It won’t dig through it deep enough. I stood back and let Yefa do the finishing touches.
With all her strength, she punched the sword that was dug into its body and dug it even deeper until it reached its heart. The dragon roared loudly but slowly lost its voice. One final roar and the dragon dropped down at the ground.
Rize let go of my weapon and the giant box around us disappeared with it.
[Gained skill, Dragon Slayer, +30% damage against dragons. When you kill a dragon, gain one random skill from that dragon.]
[Chaotic Blaze, a spell that needs to be casted for a long time, creates a giant fireball that deals damage around you when casting and explodes upon contact.]
“Hey, Yefa, did you get this skill too? Dragon Slayer?”
“Yeah I got it too.”
“I also got another sk-”
The ground rumbled and a large thud was heard. From the seas rose a dark figure. No body and no face. Only a white light that acted as its eyes and mouth. It raised its hand and the seas obeyed it. A tsunami came flying towards us.
