Chapter 82: Mission Type, Subjugation (2) (1)
His incredible speed defied his sturdy build.
The ck Dragon closed the 10-meter gap in the blink of an eye. Its outstretched left hand, tipped with ws, writhed behind it. I strengthened my grip on the shield in my hand.
Velkist.
I know!
Boom!
Its thick left hand swung like a log.
I lowered my posture and held the shield in front of me.
Kaboom!
The shield crumpled instantly, and de marks marred its surface.
An overwhelming shock surged as if it could throw my whole body off bnce. To avoid falling, I had to step back a few paces. At the same time, its right hand swung. Velkist and Neryssa were right behind it.
Swish!
As the mes hit the ck Dragons face while we were trying to intercept its attack, a message appeared.
[This monster is immune to magic!]
Next, the tail!
I retrieved the shield and quickly moved backward.
The tail extended upward like a scorpions and swept forward. It passed like a de over Velkists prostrate head, sending a few strands of his hair flying.
What can we do if our attacks dont work?
Thud!
Its right w raked the area where Velkist had been.
Velkist rolled rapidly on the ground to get out of range. I struck out with my sword at the outstretched left hand, which was aiming for Velkist. There was a strong rebound.
Ping ping ping ping!
Jenna switched to a short bow and fired arrows relentlessly, but they had no effect. The shattered arrow fragments fell lifelessly.
The ck Dragons left hand swung again.
I twisted my body to narrowly evade it. Each finger had long, sharp ws. Its attack range was not ordinary. The right hand was the same. The scales on its tail stood like des.
I moved back significantly.
The ck Dragons mouth opened, and it bit down on the spot where I had been standing. Teeth like gears were revealed inside its jaws, shining white. At the same time, the left hand, right hand, and tail; the creature used its entire body as a weapon to drive us back.
The target of its attacks
I analyzed the creatures attack pattern.
The main targets were me and Velkist. It tended to deal with those in front first. It hadnt touched Jenna and Eloka. I said to them while avoiding its ws.
Jenna, Eloka, stay as far away from me as possible.
Alright!
The two of them hurriedly moved away.
You guys too, go.
The left and right hands swung together. Ten ws swept through the entire area.
I deflected two of the ws with my shield and sword, then slipped into the exposed gap. The sand stirred by the ws shot up into the sky.
What do you mean by saying, go?!
It means what it exactly means! Im the only one dealing with this bastard.
What? Are you kidding?
Crash!
I stopped the tailing that was targeting Velkist with my sword.
Neryssa, who was behind Velkist, threw a poisoned dagger. The dagger aimed at the gap in the scales bounced off.
[This monster is physically immune!]
This guy has a tendency to only attack one person. Its a waste of stamina if everyone sticks to him. And.
I looked at the scales of a ck dragon stuck in the corner of the field.
ck energy leaked from the scales. The ck energy swelled like smoke and took the shape of a human. Its said to have a human form, but its appearance was very blurry.
[Corrupted Shadow Lv. 14]
You guys have other things to do.
The shadows hands had ck ws.
ck smoke was also billowing from other scales embedded in the sand.
Velkist looked at them and clicked his tongue.
Okay, I understand. Can you hold on while we deal with those guys?
Yes. There is definitely be.
Kwasik!
The ws mmed into the shield.
My shoulders creaked. I continued.
A way.
Ill leave it to you.
Lets go.
Belquist and Nerissa escaped.
The shadow gathered quickly near the two.
Eloka clutched her forehead.
Whats this now?
Velkists sword pierced the head of the shadow.
The shadow writhed and then disappeared.
Our attacks work on them. Lets deal with them quickly.
We just need to hold on until the opportunityes!
Jennas expression hardened as she nocked an arrow.
The four of them gathered in one ce and formed a formation. Velkist and Neryssa were at the front, Jenna and Eloka at the rear. It was a formation we had practiced in case I was absent. They began dealing with the gathering shadows one by one.
Theyre doing well.
It wasnt just some casual training.
Even in what seemed like a hopeless situation, they were handling it calmly.
Physically immune. Magic immune.
Kraaah!
The ck Dragon let out a roar.
Its body spun like a top. Not just its ws, tail, and teeth, but each sharp scale was no different from a deadly weapon. The scattered sand flew in all directions.
ng!
I deflected the ws with my shield and took a few steps back. I lowered my upper body. The tail swept past me. I moved sideways. Its jaws closed. Now it was attacking only me.
I prefer it this way.
If it were to aggro on Eloka, whose defense was lower, it would be more troublesome. I dodged and deflected attacks while analyzing its pattern.
Scalesunch. Physical Melee attacks. Summon minions.
The bosses of Pick Me Up had certain phases and patterns.
This creature showed just three patterns:unching scales, wielding ws and tail, and summoning minions.
Its not thatplicated.
If we ignore the fact that itspletely immune to all attacks, we can handle it.
Kraaaah!
The ck Dragon roared right in front of me.
I felt intense pressure in my ears. I thrust my sword into its throat.
[This monster is physically immune!]
Still, this is a pain.
I chuckled despite it.
Its ws grazed my thigh.
If it werent for the reinforced tes and leather, my flesh would have been torn apart like paper.
[Han ()] has entered a bleeding state. Health will decrease at regr intervals.
I jumped back and sheathed my sword. Then I pulled out a potion and sprayed it on the wound. I tossed the empty ss bottle carelessly. The creature was approaching.
We cant hold out for long.
Not me, nor the others.
Sufficient means we wont die right away, not that its easy.
ng! ng! ng!
The ws struck, and each blow made my shield crumple.
If it had been an ordinary shield from the workshop, it would have been destroyed already. My left arm joint throbbed painfully. The tail brushed against my side. The leather armor was torn away.
Attacks dont work.
And its not easy to dodge, let alone block. One blow is like an artillery shell. If my equipment was subpar or my stats werent good, I would have been minced long ago. Left hand, right hand, head, and tail. I defended while looking for gaps in its patterns, but
[[Han ()] has entered a bleeding state. Health will decrease at regr intervals.]
The second bleeding message appeared.
