Chapter 81: Fierce Battle Against the Divine Toxin Dragon!
Chapter 81: Fierce Battle Against the Divine Toxin Dragon!
As a proud member of the dragon clan, the Poison Dragon had always intended to find a suitable lair, occasionally venturing out to snack on humans or monsters.
But it never expected that one day, its peaceful existence would be disrupted by an elf and a human, who even managed to slay it!
Initially, the elf engaged it in a fierce battle, and it seemed that the elf would soon meet its end in the dragon's jaws. But just then, a human appeared.
This human was incredibly powerful, causing the Poison Dragon to suspect that he might be a 'Hero'. It was about to flee, but to its surprise, it was ultimately slain by this human.
Now, the Poison Dragon has resurrected, though it doesn't know how. The surging power within its body, as if an endless force, makes the Poison Dragon feel incredibly wonderful.
Not only has it successfully resurrected, but it has also become stronger, and its greatest nemesis has appeared before it. The Poison Dragon instantly feels that today must be its luckiest day in its entire dragon life.
Even if Night City and Cui turned to ashes, the Poison Dragon would still recognize them.
So, when Night City and the others separated to retreat, the Divine Toxin Dragon spread its wings and immediately locked onto the elven maiden, Cui.
The reason for targeting Cui is simple: Shima Yousuke only appeared after the Poison Dragon was slain, so the Divine Toxin Dragon doesn't recognize him as a 'Beastman'.
As for Night City, it's undeniable that this Hero is exceptionally skilled, and he was the one who killed it last time. Naturally, it wants to keep him for last and deal with him slowly.
Now, it will first take care of this elven maiden as a warm-up, venting its previous dissatisfaction, and then slowly deal with the human Hero and the Beastman. This is the current plan of the Divine Toxin Dragon.
Cui can use flight magic, and the ancient relic armor on her body even has the effect of consuming mana to achieve short-term acceleration.
However, the now 'Divine' Poison Dragon is no longer the same. Its massive size already gave it an advantage in flight, and now, with the amplification of divine power, its speed far surpasses that of the previous Blaze Dragon!
In just a few moments, the retreating Cui is caught up to by the Divine Toxin Dragon, and in an instant, it lashes out with its dragon claws, large enough to blot out the sky!
Seeing no escape, Cui stops and gathers the limited mana she has into the ancient relic longsword in her hand.
Her magic armor erupts with white flames as mana is infused into it.
As the Divine Toxin Dragon's sharp claws are about to tear her apart, Cui grits her teeth, ready to clash with the transformed Great Treasure Sword in her hand.
Looking at the elven maiden who approaches, the Poison Dragon's face reveals a human-like mocking expression.
The elven maiden before it is indeed stronger than the first time they met.
But unfortunately, the Poison Dragon has become even stronger!
"In this world, there is light. With spirits as locks and souls as chains, all bound things are sins!
Binding Path 63·Chain Bind!"
Just as the Divine Toxin Dragon is about to tear the elven maiden apart with its purple toxic claws, a large number of glowing chains burst out from behind it, tightly wrapping around its claws.
And at the other end of these glowing chains is Night City, tightly pulling on the other end.
When the Yecheng actually dared to challenge the mighty dragon with sheer force, the Divine Malevolent Toxin Dragon's expression turned even more disdainful.
But just as it prepared to exert more force and drag Yecheng, along with the chains, towards itself, it was astonished to find that its swinging arm met with immense resistance!
Yecheng, holding onto the other end of the chains with both hands, had already dug a deep pit into the ground with his feet, and his forehead and arms were covered in bulging veins.
It was evident that Yecheng was not only struggling to stop the Divine Malevolent Toxin Dragon but was also exerting all his might.
"What the hell is this 'Hero'?! How can he match me in my divine form?"
The Divine Malevolent Toxin Dragon was genuinely surprised to find that its arms couldn't move an inch.
The terrifying physical strength of Yecheng had left the Malevolent Toxin Dragon not just astonished but thoroughly shocked.
The Malevolent Toxin Dragon, in its current state, felt its power was so overwhelming that it believed it could even challenge for the Dragon King's position.
Yet, despite such incredible might, it was evenly matched against a mere human.
Are you sure this is a human and not some ancient beast in human skin? If this were the past, without the power of the gods, wouldn't I have been easily defeated by Yecheng with a single punch?
"Damn you, 'Hero'. Since you killed me last time, have you become this much stronger?" But if you want to stop me, this is not enough. You'll watch as I finish off your companions, and then, in a state of utter despair, I'll finish you off!"
Perhaps influenced by the divine power, the Malevolent Toxin Dragon's race had been elevated, and at this moment, it had gained the ability to speak.
As its words fell, the Divine Malevolent Toxin Dragon opened its mouth, and a massive energy gas rapidly gathered within, fueled by the fusion of its powerful mana and divine power.
Dragons are known for their breath attacks, and since it couldn't personally tear its opponent apart with its claws, it would use its breath to completely annihilate them!
If it were the breath of the Malevolent Toxin Dragon from before, the mana shield formed by Ciusi's concentrated mana would have been sufficient to withstand it for a while.
But now, the Divine Malevolent Toxin Dragon was far, far stronger than its previous self.
From the intensity of the poison mist it released upon its initial appearance, even if Ciusi used all her might to defend, her mana-formed barrier would still be corroded and penetrated in an instant.
"Flame Phoenix Annihilation!"
"Explosive Flame Breath!"
Just as the Divine Malevolent Toxin Dragon's breath was about to be unleashed, two figures, one large and one small, appeared simultaneously behind Ciusi, both casting fire-attributed magic in retaliation.
The smaller figure was Shima Yousuke, whose fire magic transformed into a gigantic fire phoenix.
The larger figure was naturally the Blaze Dragon summoned by Yecheng, and it, too, breathed out a scorching dragon breath.
The fire phoenix, bathed in the blazing dragon breath, became even more colossal and divine. The combined fire-attributed magic and breath created a synergistic effect, where one plus one was greater than two.
The fire phoenix, with its augmented power, let out a cry in the air and charged directly towards the Divine Malevolent Toxin Dragon's poison mist breath!
