Chapter 1245: One Last Hunt 2
After Sapphire was slammed three times with the power of Tier 5 Monsters, absorbing the shockwave and the force, I allowed her to shoot it right back at them with the [Wrathful Draconic Counter] Skill she possessed!
"{Wrathful Draconic Counter}!"
Her shield shone brightly, releasing a draconic roar, three powerful beams of darkness and thunder were unleashed, impacting the three wyverns like sharp spears.
BOOOM!
Their bodies were swiftly impaled, their tough scales serving no purpose as this attack alone killed them on the spot, leaving behind a huge bloody hole in the middle of their stomach or necks.
After using it like this, I had discovered one thing about this ability, it seems I can freely shape the form of the Counterattack, which seems to be composed primarily of my own Mana and also all the energy absorbed from the impact.
This time, I made it into three sharp spears, easy to pierce foes that are just in front of me. I think I might be able to shape and use it in other ways as well, but this was pretty good already!
I noticed the rest of my party fighting the other Venomous Wyverns. There was a flock of over forty down here, the cave was much bigger than the reports said, and so was the population!
They either multiplied within a week, or they were hiding more of themselves than they usually showed to the hunters or adventurers that roamed around.
For a moment, I panicked a bit as I saw Zack being surrounded by five Wyverns at once, their enormous bodies rushing down and attacking him, his armor held off fine, but at any moment he could get stung!
Yet...
"{Tempestuous Rampage}"
His eyes flashed with golden lightning, his entire body unleashing his Elemental Beast Aura as a giant horned bear surged from within, his entire body moved at lightning speed, winds and thunder spiraling around his body. He swung his two giant axes, hacking through the monster's bodies as if they were nothing but hot butter.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Explosions of emerald winds and golden thunder surged with each blow, his movements precise and also at the same time, rather savage. He controlled his Aura really well, beginning to comprehend that he could further expand it into a space he controlled, a domain.
Within seconds, all five wyverns died, hacked into pieces.
"ROOOAARR!"
The Venomous Wyvern King roared furiously as it quickly flew towards Zack, attempting to attack him while catching him off-guard.
However, Zack responded by furiously spinning in midair, loading his weapons with his Thunderstorm Aura, he unleashed a literal thunderstorm against the King.
BOOOM!
"SHYAAAGH!"
The Tier 7 Monster was pushed back, its 15-meter-tall body slamming into the ground. Furiously, the creature quickly conjured magic. Monsters with titles such as "Kings" or "Queens" always were more intelligent, capable of understanding Mana and its fundamental powers, they could conjure magic using complex magic circles and it came out naturally out of them, unlike people that had to think before acting most of the time, hence the invention of the internal magic circle.
A myriad of spears made of deadly venom were fired against Zack the moment the King was pushed away. Zack quickly encompassed his body with lightning and escaped the projectiles that began hitting the ceiling, creating tremors as rubble fell from above.
"Shit, that thing's firing its deadly venom everywhere!"
It wasn't as if everyone had their hands free right now, everyone was busy, so it was up to him to distract the King until our hands were a bit freer, it wouldn't take too long though.
"ROOAAR!"
Seven more Wyverns attacked me as I finished killing the first three. Four of them ambushed me from behind, releasing a deadly venomous breath to quickly immobilize me, the other three attacked me from the front, aiming their sharp claws and jaws against my face, to tear it apart and eat it.
"Beelzebub!"
"On it!"
However, I had Beelzebub with me, a Dark and Poison-type Spirit! Once summoned, he quickly opened his mandibles, absorbing the poisonous breaths while at the same time covering me with a veil of his own spiritual energy, giving me temporary immunity to this powerful venom.
Thanks to my frozen status, status effects usually don't affect me, but it's not the same with physical effects, I would still have my flesh and equipment melted if that acidic venom cloud were to touch me.
"Thank you!"
I quickly leaped into midair, channeling the powers of my Skills and Scarlet's Skills, and combining their effects and techniques together.
"{Holy Divine Thunder Armament Creation}!"
I created a second sword, one made of pure gold that shone brightly, as big as Scarlet in almost every aspect, but with a sharper, thunderbolt-like shape for its blade. A temporary sword for my dual wielding arts.
"{Dual Swordsmanship Arts}: {Dual Cross Wave}!"
"SHAAAAH!"
As the wyverns rushed to attack me, they were greeted with a dual cross attack, which unleashed a wave of thunderous flames against them, impacting them and slicing them into
an X-shape!
SLAAASH!
The attack was just way too strong when I combined Scarlet's insane stats and the Divine Thunder Armament powerful abilities. I've been already cheating for a while, but this felt even more a cheat now!
Once the four Wyverns were gone, I quickly spun back and defended against the claw and stinger blows from the other three with Sapphire, which I had attached to my left arm with a
belt included in her design.
Despite how big and heavy she was, with a physique of Tier 6, this wasn't hard to lift at all! I quickly attacked the next Wyvern, stabbing its stomach and slicing it open, as it was quickly engulfed by four-colored thunderous flames, exploding its innards.
BOOM!
I moved to the other two, which decided to release their breath on my face, but thanks to Beelzebub that wasn't really a problem either.
"I doubt that'll work a second time!"
SLAAASH!
With both Scarlet and my Divine Thunder Armament, I cross-slashed the two into four halves
each, their bodies splattering the floor with blood and innards.
