The Goblin’s Leveling System! - Chapter 151
Axel’s PoV:
The sharp spikes that had been released from the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s dead body had levitated and had pointed towards the Dragon King.
The Dragon King’s dragon claw was still stuck inside the thick skill of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog so the Dragon King wouldn’t be able to dodge the attack of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog if the sharp spikes would launch towards the Dragon King.
“Dragon King! Use your left arm and use dragonic mana to envelope your left hand with the dragonic mana.”
After I advised the Dragon King on how to escape our current predicament, the Dragon King had already understood my intentions and so he didn’t need me to elaborate the escape plan I had in mind.
The Dragon King channeled his mana towards his left hand and transformed the condensed mana in his left hand into a huge dragon claw.
The Dragon King released the mana he had used on his right hand that was stuck on the skull of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog which caused the dragon claw on his right hand to dissipate.
The Dragon King attempted to pull his right hand out from the skull of level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog after the dragon claw on his right hand had been removed.
Although the Dragon King should have been able to pull out his hand out from the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s skull since the dragon claw was already removed, the Dragon King’s right hand wasn’t pulled out yet.
I guessed that there was a force that kept the Dragon King’s right hand in the skull of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog regardless if the dragon claw was removed or not.
It might be either because of the skill of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog that was activated after the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s death or the other 7 high-level monsters had activated their skill to trap the right hand of the Dragon King.
I believed that the former speculation should be more plausible than the latter since the other 7 high-level monster’s skill wasn’t suited in manipulating corpse.
Not to mention that the sharp spikes from the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s body had been released and were now levitating on the air just after the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s death.
It was too much of a coincidence that after the death of the level 72,500 silver armadillo’s death, the sharp spikes from its body would be released right after so the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog might have possessed a skill that allowed it to release the sharp spikes from its body and the trigger of that skill would be the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s death.
The skill that prevented the Dragon King from pulling his arm out of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s corpse must also be the cause of the same skill that released the sharp spikes.
“Axel 1! I found a piece of information from the analysis of the hundred thousand paged book and I found out that the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s sharp spikes will cause paralysis if the tip of the sharp spikes manages to puncture the skin of any living being.”
Axel 2 stopped in analyzing the other contents of the hundred thousand-page book that the two of us had finished in reading just so that Axel 2 could warn me about the ability of the sharp spikes from the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s body.
“Since I have already told you all I know for now about the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog, I will now go back in analyzing the remaining contents of the hundred thousand paged book.”
After Axel 2 had said that, he started to meditate again as he browsed through all of the memories that we had obtained from reading all pages of the hundred thousand paged book and analyzed all of it.
It was a good thing that Axel 2 had warned me in time about the ability of the sharp spikes of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog.
If not, I would have recklessly commanded the Dragon King to tank all sharp spikes of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog since I am confident that my defense stat would be able to prevent the sharp spikes from penetrating my body deeper.
Although, I am not that confident that my defense stat would be enough to be able to prevent the sharp spikes from penetrating the epidermis layer of my skin I do am confident that it wouldn’t penetrate up to the hypodermis layer of my skin.
I might need to at least devour the defense stats of the level 73,000 silver armor armadillo to be able to prevent the sharp spikes from the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s dead body from penetrating my skin.
Since the Dragon King was possessing my body, the one that would be damaged by the 8 high-level monsters would be my body instead of the Dragon King’s body since I had stored the Dragon King’s body in my system inventory.
Now that I have thought about it, what was the level 73,000 silver armor armadillo’s current action?
I used the [Mana Sense] skill to perceive the mana flow around the surroundings and it allowed me to perceive what’s around the Dragon King’s limited eyesight.
The level 73,000 silver armor armadillo was in the blind spot of the Dragon King’s eyesight so I wouldn’t be able to see the action of the level 73,000 silver armor armadillo through the monitor that displayed what the Dragon King was currently looking at.
By activating the [Mana Sense] skill, I would be able to see the things that were in the blind spot of the Dragon King’s vision so the function of the [Mana Sense] skill was similar to a 380-degree vision.
After activating the [Mana Sense] skill, a screen appeared in front of me which showed the eyesight that I would see in a 380-degree vision.
Although I could see the blind spot of the Dragon King’s eyesight, it was still in black and white color while I would often see different shades of blue color since the blue color represented the flow of mana within a loving being and the surroundings.
I noticed that the mana from the sharp spikes that were levitating on the air had a darker shade compared to the mana in the surrounding which meant that the sharp spikes were coated in concentrated mana.
Since that was the case, I needed to see the mana within the corpse of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog so that I would be able to estimate the amount of mana that was inputted in the sharp spikes.
I checked the corpse of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog through the second screen that was in front of me which had displayed the 380-degree vision in black, white, and blue color.
The mana inside the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s body was non-existent except for the head of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog that was filled with condensed mana.
The condensed mana within the head of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog prevented the right hand of the Dragon King to be pulled out of the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s head.
It made some sense that the mana inside the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s body was drained due to it using its mana to prevent the Dragon King’s right hand from pulling it out of its head and coating the sharp spikes with condensed mana.
It was a problem that the sharp spikes from the level 72,500 lethal blade hedgehog’s body were coated with a paralysis debuff but it wouldn’t be that much of a problem if it wouldn’t graze the Dragon King’s skin.
The Dragon King should be able to pull off multiple quick slashes using his dragon claws to defend against all of the sharp spikes that would be launched towards him so I wasn’t too worried about that.
What I’m worried about instead was the fact that the level 73,000 silver armor armadillo was still preparing its attack against the Dragon King and the level 73,000 silver armor armadillo could attack the Dragon King anytime so it was quite worrying.
But as worried as I am, I still needed to get myself together and prevent myself from being hindered by these pointless negative emotions.
I should be calm especially in this situation since the other 6 high-level monsters still hadn’t shown any aggression towards the Dragon King and me after the level 73,000 silver armor armadillo stepped into action and prepare its attack.
The level 73,000 silver armor armadillo was still rotating and the tornado that it had generated due to its constant rotation was comparable to an all-out attack of a level 45,000 high-level monsters.
Although the strength of the tornado didn’t increase even though the level 73,000 silver armor armadillo was still rotating, the strength of the tornado still had reached the point that it could affect the Dragon King.
I covered the body of the Dragon King with mana which allowed the Dragon King to withstand the power of the tornado from the level 73,000 silver armor armadillo’s constant rotation.
As my mana was decreasing due to activating several skills at the same time, the flow from the sharp spikes with coated mana was running rampant and I had already expected what would happen next so the Dragon King and I braced ourselves.
