Chapter 88: Almost Got Combo'd to Death, Good Thing I'm More Skilled

As the first wave of black vines spawned three monsters, more small black buds began to bloom beneath the lava.

Thick vine barriers separated the lava from the monsters, and those ball-like creatures continued to launch attacks at Viktor.

Although they couldn't effectively damage Viktor, they caused considerable trouble for his sustained output.

The breeding ground gradually produced tiny flying monsters.

They were like bats, but instead of sharp teeth on their heads, they had long, straw-like mouthparts.

Black liquid was squeezed out from their constantly expanding and contracting abdomens, stored in their brains.

When they could no longer bear it, they would suddenly turn that black liquid into a rapid arrow, piercing towards Viktor.

At first, those fragmented black liquids couldn't even graze Viktor, but as time passed, the bats around Druja gradually increased, and the black liquid became like a rain of arrows with each attack.

Finally, the dense liquid grazed Viktor once.

His lava coat made a 'sizzling' sound, emitting wisps of white smoke.

"What terrifying corrosive power!"

Cocotte, hiding behind a floating rock, felt her heart clench with worry at the sight.

Although Viktor could free his hands from the constant monster collisions, how could he avoid the sky full of black arrows?

Viktor was also considering this point.

Although the mage's robe generated a shield that could resist these corrosive acids,

Even the strongest shield couldn't absorb all the attacks.

Restricted, Viktor could only constantly dodge and evade, while resisting the incoming wheel-like monsters and avoiding the black liquid.

He could only spare a thin stream of magic to restrain those flying monsters.

If he stopped the firepower and let Druja find an opening, it would only allow it to start regenerating life.

That way, Viktor's current efforts would be wasted.

Sparing a magic spell to deal with the bat monsters, the erosion of Druja's life became somewhat slow, even matching Druja's recovery ability.

In Viktor's eyes, Druja's life value was neither increasing nor decreasing at this point.

Before him, it was still a fierce battle.

In the game, to deal with such a powerful boss, it usually required a team of multiple players. The frontline warriors would withstand those wheel monsters and corrosive attacks.

The mages at the rear would take advantage of the gaps to constantly restore the warriors' life and continuously output damage to the boss.

Although only mages could enter Endymion, as the plot developed, after Druja occupied Endymion, all professions could enter the City of Mages.

Through the mages' teleportation array, they could reach the seventh layer of the dungeon.

But now there was only Viktor alone. Although there were two mages beside him, they were of no help to him at all.

After all, they had never even seen Druja before, and rashly joining would only drag him down.

He had two ways to solve the current predicament in his mind:

If he quickly dealt with those small monsters, it would indeed reduce a lot of unnecessary harassment.

Taking advantage of the time before Druja could summon the second wave of small monsters, he could launch a full-force attack on its weak points. However, this method would only drag out the battle line longer.

The Wood Calamity itself was good at prolonging the battle to wear down players' spirits. This way, it would be falling into the trap.

But the second method could only be done by some high-end players.

Ignore the harassment attacks of small monsters and focus on attacking Druja.

Because of Druja's summoning mechanism, if the first wave of minions wasn't cleared, or wasn't cleared below a certain number,

Druja wouldn't summon small monsters again.

As luck would have it, Viktor was that high-end player.

He quickly changed his mind and gave up defense.

When he reduced the number of monsters to two with high-temperature magic bombardment, he immediately moved his body rapidly in the space to avoid the attacks of small monsters.

Finally, only two bat-like monsters flew in the air, sparsely and miserably but stubbornly attacking Viktor.

But the only two left seemed to have been given steroids, the speed of spewing black liquid clearly increased several times.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

Merely increasing attack speed wasn't enough to cover the entire space.

Viktor constantly flashed his body in the air, like a dancer gracefully stepping on raindrops under black rain, skillfully avoiding attacks.

And his hands didn't stop at all, pouring powerful spells that burned the heavens and earth towards Druja.

Soon, under Viktor's final concentrated attack, Druja, no longer reviving, had its health reduced considerably, with large blank spaces taking over the endless length.

Now, Viktor only needed to face the last 30%.

The crow on his shoulder suddenly spoke, asking Viktor:

"This guy... will it also come with a world-destroying attack like Guledon?"

"Yes."

"Have you already prepared for it?"

"Yes."

Vega's suspended heart relaxed. If Viktor said he was prepared, then there was no problem.

Druja entered its final weakened state, the green fluorescence on its body flickering, as if it had become quite tired, and one of its giant legs even knelt on the lava.

The white on its compound eyes gradually converged, and a strong natural aura burst forth from its body.

Each Calamity has three stages: the initial stage, the second stage, and the final weakened stage.

But the weakened stage is often the easiest to overturn.

Because...

Druja's natural energy began to pour into the entire space all at once, and just the momentum alone made this异空间 around it shake.

The entire Endymion seemed to fall into an earthquake, shaking crazily.

Haim was stunned, he didn't understand what was happening.

Wasn't Endymion a sky city? How could there be an earthquake!?

"Haim Horn, Cocotte."

As if reminding the two of something, Viktor only said their names once and didn't say more.

But hearing this, the two quickly reacted and poured all the mana potions Viktor had given them into their stomachs at once.

Feeling the powerful mana filling their bodies, the two felt as if their bodies were swelling, unbearably painful.

Ignoring their own pain, the two poured all their mana into reinforcing this huge barrier.

The barrier seemed to instantly increase by a whole circle.

"Here it comes."

The two of them had never seen a Calamity before, so they had no idea how terrifying a Calamity could be.

When a Calamity believes it has encountered an unbeatable enemy,

It would exhaust all its energy to release its final move.

[Myriad Phenomena of Nature]

As six lotus flowers grew from Druja's three pairs of compound eyes, a creepy crack slowly tore open on its huge head.

That vast natural energy was instantly sucked into its own body, its entire body swelling up like a hot air balloon, like a small planet floating in the void.

It was as if it had swallowed the surrounding sounds and smells into its stomach, the entire void became extremely silent.

Vega stood on Viktor's shoulder, only seeing Viktor's mouth seem to say something, but it couldn't hear anything.

The next second, the powerful energy like a surging flood turned into seven giant snakes howling towards Viktor! As if wanting to stuff the entire Endymion into its mouth!

Every space the giant snakes passed through seemed to be deprived of vitality, even the mere void could make people feel that the surroundings had fallen into a fated silence.

Looking at the sky-high giant snakes twisting towards him, Viktor took out Ulust and held it in the air.

At the same time, a thin thread connected between Cocotte, Haim, and Viktor.

"[Foolish and hazy God of Fire, forget the prayers of the mortal world, bestow upon me truth and courage—]"

"[When the scorching sun hangs high, the primordial fire burns away illusions—!]"

Along with Viktor's mysterious chanting, Cocotte and Haim behind him were instantly dumbfounded.

What kind of blasphemous chanting was that!?

Although they thought so in their hearts, their hands poured even more mana into the barrier.

As Viktor shouted, the world around seemed to freeze.

A tiny fireball gradually condensed in his hand, turning into a faint flame flying between the seven giant snakes, aiming directly at Druja.

Time began to flow again, the giant snakes frantically colliding with the barrier, under the huge impact, many tiny cracks appeared on the barrier.

"Viktor! Hurry! We... can't hold on much longer!"

Cocotte closed her eyes and could only urge Viktor, who was standing there in a daze, her heart filled with final despair.

Haim and she instantly lost all their mana, perhaps due to the huge demand of Viktor's magic, the two now felt as if they had been drained.

The ocean-like giant snakes carrying silence were about to completely swallow Viktor in the next second.

But for some unknown reason, they suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"What a pity, Druja, in the end, it's still me,"

"Who's more skilled."

The seven sky-high giant snakes began to be engulfed by red from the head closest to Viktor, and the natural energy gradually dissipated into the void. The seven giant snakes actually turned into a sky full of demonic flames!

They completely scattered, turning into a fiery dragon carrying hope and pressure, charging towards Druja again!

The Wood Calamity, which had fallen into weakness, no longer had the strength to resist such powerful high-level magic again.

The moment that tiny flame touched itself, all the energy in its body seemed to completely lose its connection with nature.

For some reason, its chest became unbearably hot. Druja stood there in a daze, only able to watch itself being completely swallowed by the fire dragon.

[War Magic — God's Arrow of Avatist]

Boom!

A white light shot towards the sky, breaking through the seven layers of heaven, straight to the firmament.

.......

Aurelian, already lying on the floating rock, lazily lay back on it, staring at the sky.

She had been waiting for Viktor to return.

The starry night sky was very tempting, like the God of Beauty had spread picked-up crystals all over the canvas.

The next second, a violent white light tore through this wonderful starry sky.

Aurelian sat up abruptly, looking at the white light towering into the universe before her, incredibly surprised.

With little stars in her eyes, she excitedly said:

"Wow!"

"So beautiful!"
