[Warning, the Promotion Trial of Abyss difficulty will involve an adversary of the fifth-turn level. The difficulty is extremely high and failure may lead to potential life-threatening danger. Do you want to start the promotion?]
[Promotion Trial activated! ]
One after another, system notifications started to flood in as soon as Dean McKenzie entered the Promotion Temple.
As Dean nodded, the Promotion Trial officially began, and he was teleported
away amidst a grey light.
By the time the familiar feeling of weightlessness reached him, Dean had already appeared in the Land of Trials.
Just as Dean stepped into the Land of Trials, the system notification popped up before his eyes.
[You have entered the Land of Trials, your trial task: Dragon ying! ]
“What the hell is this?”
Staring at the notification, Dean was instantly taken aback.
Before Dean could react, a beastly roar echoed across the sky.
The roar, filled with the majesty capable of making one’s spirit tremble, made
Dean feel as though a sharp de had been thrust into his brain and was being ruthlessly stirred around.
Dean instantly turned as pale as a sheet.
Fortunately, Dean had the trait of Mental Fortitude; otherwise, he would have
been finished right then and there.
But his current condition wasn’t much better either.
Not only was he severely hit on the spirit, a huge meteorite engulfed in mes fell from the sky towards Dean.
“Boom!”
The ce where Dean stood was directly hit by the meteorite, and the mes spread hundreds of meters in an instant.
Fortunately, Dean had been wary and had always kept the Guardian Shield activated.
This attack, albeit protected by the Guardian Shield, hadn’t seeded in taking
Dean’s life.
At the same time he was hit, Dean saw the creature that had attacked him.
There was a ck dragon, about ten meters long, hovering about a kilometer above his head.
As Dean spotted the dragon, its attributes also appeared in front of his eyes.
Name: Underdeveloped ck Dragon Hatchling
Temte: Extraordinary
Level: 120
Traits: Extraordinary Life (A) (For each level increase, 50 points are added to all attributes)
The effects of attributes have increased twentyfold (1 point of strength equals
20 points of attack, 1 point of physique equals 20 points of defense)
The damage from any attacks is reduced by seventy percent and it is immune to seventy percent of magic damage).
Intermediate
Attributes: ???
Skills:
Meteorite Skill (Fourth-turn)
Great Dragon Roar (Fifth-turn)
Ps: Certain attributes have not yet been appraised.
Even though Dean couldn’t see the creature’s detailed attributes, just from looking at this one attribute, Dean felt terrified of his opponent’s power.
No need to calcte anything else, just this one trait – adding 50 points to all attributes per level – at the noth level meant 24,000 attribute points.
6,000 strength and 6,000 physique make for 120,000 attack and 120,000 defense points.
And that’s without factoring in the dragon’s own attributes.
Add to that, the trait of reducing damage sustained by seventy percent, and immunity to seventy percent of magic damage.
Jesus, if the dragon just stood there and let Dean hit it, Dean would still find it hard to kill.
More deadly is the fact that it can fly!
It’s now flying thousands of meters above the ground, out of Dean’s reach.
Dean is at a lower level than his opponent, and is even more suppressed in terms of mobility.
Dean can only be dragged along on the ground and repeatedly ground down.
Although Old Four’s Guardian Shield is extraordinarily powerful, and the ck Dragon’s damage couldn’t break Dean’s defense, sowhat?
Dean could only endure being beaten!
Apart from his Bone Fang skill, none of his long-range attacks could reach the dragon.
And Dean’s Bone Fang damage is reduced by ny percent due to the dragon s intermediate level, and the remaining ten percent is further reduced by seventy percent when it hits the dragon.
A score of too in attack would only result in 3 points of actual damage on the dragon.
What’s the difference between that and tickling the dragon?
As for Old Nine?
Dean did summon it for a test once.
Its effect was extraordinary; a single arrow hit the dragon, but it was taken down by the ck Dragon’s roar and never came back to life. Dean didn t dare to summon Old Nine again.
So, Dean could only bear the dragon’s damage while continually applying his Appraisal Skill to the creature, hoping to discover its weakness.
An enhanced Appraisal Skill has a rare trait called Insight, with a thirty percent probability of detecting the target’s weaknesses.
If Dean attacked based on the detected weaknesses, he could ignore defensive abilities like Equipment, Talent, Traits, etc., and cause two hundred percent damage.
This was the only method Dean had so far that could possibly cause damage to the ck Dragon.
So, again and again, Dean used Appraisal Skill on the dragon, trying to discover its weakness.
At first, Dean believed that with a thirty percent chance of sess, the Appraisal Skill should theoretically have been easy to apply.
But when he started applying it, Dean discovered that the touted thirty percent probability was absolutely bulls***.
The sess chance was influenced by the dragon’s attributes and traits.
After all, the Insight trait only had a rarity level of “rare”. When used to inspect a being with an “extraordinary” temte, the sess rate would undoubtedly be frustratingly low.
Dean tested it out and found that the written thirty percent sess rate was, in fact, less than three percent!
Even when he managed to get it sessfully once, the detected weakness disappeared in an instant, making it impossible for Dean to attack it in time!
Under these circumstances, Dean couldn’t defeat the dragon at all.
What made it even worse was that after several attacks, the dragon found that magic didn’t work on Dean, but mental attacks were quite effective.
So, it kept using the Great Dragon Roar.
Several roars made Dean dizzy and disoriented.
Dean was acutely aware that if he continued like this, the only one who would lose was him.
