The fire that was shot towards truly had me rethinking my decision. I did not expect this monster to be this strong. I took a look at its level to see if I can determine anything, but when I did I found it was an even bigger mistake.
J'Sanguna, The Red Dragon
Lvl: 81
Health: 7651 / 7651
"Dammit!" I cursed as I jumped to the right avoiding the column of fire shooting towards me. I need to go all out if I can even think of destroying something like like.
Chaos Blast after Chaos Blast, I sent towards the spines of the wings, hoping it would disable him enough. My hope was to take each section of his body from him, causing him to limit his range of attacks further.
The blasts did minimal damage but it damage it regardless. little splotches of blood dripping to the ground. I quickly changed my sword into Mjölnir. I poured my Chaos magic into the hammer, watching it take a swirling black hue. The dragon began to shoot smaller fire balls in my direction, in hopes of ending the battle quickly.
It took me awhile and most of my stamina to finally manage to make it close enough to the dragon. I have been zigzagging across the floor dodging the fire balls, all the while going closer and closer. When I was within five meters of the dragon, I used a sudden burst of speed to quickly dash towards his front left leg.
Once I reach there I used all my strength to bring the hammer sideways towards his knee. The hammer successful impacted with a loud thud followed by a loud snap. The attack managed to break the dragons knee.
It roared in pain as the walls of the open cavern shook from the pressure. Taking advantage of his distraction, I sent a distortion sphere towards the left wing. Successfully trapping it within the carnage of the attack.
I aimed for the tip of the spine in the wing watched as the constant attack tore at the wing as well as the spine itself. The force the dragon used with his wing, managed to dislodge it from my attack. Successfully dispelling it.
I fell back towards the entrance of the cavern when the dragon began to trash with its body. I found it to be far more dangerous to stay within proximity of the beast for far too long.
I quickly downed one of the few mana potions I had left, completely forgetting Ninja who just nonchalantly stood by the entrance to the cavern.
I watched the dragon closely waiting for another chance to have go at his other leg, when all of a sudden a few fireballs crashed in the ground around. The impact shooting me into the wall to my right. The impact drained a quarter of my health as I spat up some blood.
I fell to my knees as I glanced back at the dragon who was still testing out its now broken leg.
Changing the hammer into the spear, I shot forward ignoring the pain I felt in my chest.
I stabbed at the dragon's legs only drawing blood a few times when his head suddenly came sweeping across the ground. His head struck my side which caused me to spit out some more blood. I clung onto his head and in turn I was flung into the sky above.
I must have travelled more that fifty meters into the air. Luckily for me the trajectory for my fall, fell near the tail of the dragon.
As I fell to the ground, I needed to speed more stamina, pushing my agility to its limits. The dragon was spitting out fireball after fireball. I spun through the air, avoiding the inaccurate fireballs, successfully moving my trajectory to that of the tail itself.
I changed the spear back into the sword, and unleashed a Chaos Blade with more than half of my mana. The Chaos Blade shot down quickly and as if by a hot knife through butter, the Chaos Blade sliced through the tail.
The dragon began to stumble around the cavern now that its stabiliser has been removed. He reared back his neck and shot forth another column of fire aimed directly at my landing point.
I didn't have time to avoid it. As I landed on the ground, the fire barrelled into me. The pain I felt as the fire began to seeped under my flesh. Luckily for me, it did not seem enough to burn me to a crisp, but it was enough to bring my health dangerously low to zero.
At this point, Ninja finally decided to make an appearance. And this time in his awakened form. His sudden appearance caused the dragon to stop the fire column and instead focus on the now level 79 Lightning God that continuously attacked it.
I downed the last two of my health potions as I watched Ninja fight the dragon. Bringing my health up to only a quarter.
I watch as Ninja, in essence, danced around the injured dragon. Every so often, shooting lightning bolts its way. The damage it did was decent but not enough for it to be substantial. The Dragons health was still at 3198 out of the original 7651. This damage was due to both of our attacks.
I watched trying to think of a strategy to use in order to defeat this dragon. We needed some sort of winning solution.
Ninja was holding his own, and unfortunately the dragon was not as weakened as I thought it would be by removing his tail. Every other animal I know of that has a tail, would spend far longer getting use to it not being there. How does this dragon do it?
Every so often, I would send a Chaos Wave into the dragon when I thought it was getting too close to Ninja. When I glanced at the dragons tail once more, I suddenly had a moment of clarity. I suddenly knew what the possible strategy was.
I ran up behind the dragon as Ninja kept the front busy. The surrounded area was already almost reduced to rubble due to the fight. I jumped onto the back of the dragon and as I ran past the wings I cast Distortion on the right wings. The wing that still remained undamaged.
The sphere began to barrage the wings with shockwaves as the dragon reared back its head and roared. The roar was louder than the last time. I jumped around his neck and landed near Ninja. In an instant I jumped onto Ninja's back as I held the fur below his neck tightly.
"Ninja, up!" I ordered as I soon began to notice that the dragon was contracting his muscles. The powerful aura surrounding the dragon began to increase with every passing second. Something was going to happen and whatever that would be, it was going to be big.
Ninja jumped against the wall to the cavern and used it to launch himself into the sky. The powerful jumped managed to carry us closed to forty maybe fifty meters in the sky.
I raised my right hand after I unequipped my sword. Above my right hand the familiar fire like energy ball that swirled in a clockwise direction began to form. I fed as much Chaos energy into the attack as I could hoping it would be enough.
I leapt off Ninja as I let gravity do its work as I fell to the dragon below. Luckily for me, the Distortion sphere was still in operation.
I fell to the dragon with maximum velocity speed as I adjusted my initial destination. I now aimed for center mass. The direct center of the dragons back.
"Disruption!" I shouted as I thrust the energy ball into the Dragon.
The blast of the attack threw me aside as I shot into the opposite wall behind the dragon, causing it to indent with my figure. I could feel my body shutting down. When I glanced down I could see some bones sticking out from my arms and right leg. Blood dripped form my mouth and down my chin.
I fell forward, landing only a meter from the egg as the pain within my body double. My vision began to blur as I heard the distinct sounds of an egg cracking. I adjusted my eyesight just in time to witness a small black dragon climb from the egg and waddle over to me. It stuck its head out a few times, using it to poke me. I knew it was sniffing me, but it was so damn cute.
My vision began to blur once more, as I felt the baby dragon cuddle up underneath my right arm and against my chest. If anyone could see us now, it would seem that the I was hugging the baby dragon while we slept.
Before my vision and consciousness completely failed me, I saw a system message show:
Territory Boss #3 Eliminated
2/13 Stages Have Been Completed
Then I saw and felt nothing.
It felt like an eternity waiting in a pitch black hole with no escape. I couldn't feel, see, smell, or hear anything. It was if I was merely floating within nothingness.
When suddenly a bright light shone all around me, blinding me very quickly. It took a while for my eyes to adjust before I finally had some clue as to where I was now. I just really hope it is not that snowy mountaintop from last time. That place was cold as hell.
Yet nothing I could think of made sense. Instead of the usual things I was expecting, I awoke in a white room with a lot of medical equipment surrounding me. One particular machine with a constant pinging sound, that rose in frequency.
I can't be here. There's no way.
