Chapter 357: Damage Shift, Desperate [Blue Rose] (Dragon Boat Festival

~13 min read 2,450 words

Bang!

The force generated by the dragon tail's whipping strike was like a giant thunderclap exploding in the sky, instantly creating a level 7 or 8 gale, bending the dense forest in this area.

The sound of "Click, click" branches breaking was as dense as thunder!

The lush, thick leaves were swept into the sky by the gale, like green blood, sprinkling the sky!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

One figure after another was knocked away by the strong impact, smashing into the jungle behind, and several thick trees were broken by the figures one after another.

Seeing Tina and Tia smashed into a brown tree trunk half a meter thick after breaking three big trees in a row, making a muffled sound, and fell down.

The two slender figures were already covered in small wounds cut by branches and leaves!

One figure lay limp on the ground, one leaned weakly at the bottom of a big tree, blood constantly overflowing from her mouth.

As an assassin-type job in the ninja system, in order to improve agility and stealth, and for ease of movement, they would not wear heavy defensive equipment.

This resulted in.

Even with the defensive magic used by Evileye, which offset part of the attack, the power of the aftermath still caused great damage to Seeing Tina and the others.

Lakyus and Gagaran were a bit better, but they were also seriously injured, lying in the ruins of broken branches in the jungle.

In the whole field.

The only one standing was Evileye's figure.

The giant dragon transformed by Tang Zheng spread its dragon wings, circling above the jungle; the crimson figure was like a ball of scorching sun, and the golden pupils looked down at the 【Blue Rose】 group below with indifference.

He had contacted Evileye before, but it didn't trigger the acquisition of Wild Magic, so he could only try to transform into a Dragon Lord and make contact again.

However!

Tang Zheng did not intend to expose the identity of the Golden Giant Dragon, so he activated "Body Armor" to cover his whole body,

Due to the previously devoured Sun Angler, the color of the Body Armor had turned crimson, so from the outside, it looked more like a crimson giant dragon.

"Lakyus, Gagaran, Seeing Tina, Tia!"

Mie Guo looked up at the crimson giant dragon in the sky, not daring to let it leave his field of vision, and let out a low growl from his moving throat.

"Cough... cough."

"I, I and Seeing Tina are not, dead yet..."

"Little one, you hold on for a while,"

"Evileye, be careful..."

The voices of companions came from behind.

Evileye could perceive the weak aura behind her, especially Tia and the others, who responded even though they were seriously injured.

This was the companions preventing her from being distracted.

Fury burned in Evileye's eyes, staring fixedly at the crimson giant dragon in the sky, its figure like a small mountain and the terrifying dragon might.

Made her, as an undead who shouldn't be affected by emotions, have her heart beat inexplicably faster.

The crimson scales were as delicate and smooth as fish scales, the giant dragon wings spread out, and under the sunlight, pale red light flowed between the gaps of the scales!

Evileye had lived for over 250 years and had never been in such close contact with the most powerful race in this world.

Such size and sense of pressure proved that the other party was not an ordinary dragon race, but the king of the dragon race—a Dragon Lord!

"Monster? What a joke!"

Evileye found that the size of this giant dragon seemed to be somewhat abnormal.

She had seen dragon races with slender bodies from afar; the crimson giant dragon in front of her was clearly much sturdier.

The scales all over its body also felt a bit strange.

However, there are many types of dragon races, and their sizes are not necessarily all slender.

Very strong!

Stronger than most of the Demon Gods that descended!

"Mortal."

Tang Zheng opened his mouth, and arrogant syllables rolled out from between his sharp teeth; he was now in the image of a Dragon Lord, so naturally, he had to imitate the arrogance of the dragon race:

"Ants crawling on the ground, who allowed you to look up?"

The rolling hum vibrated under the air.

"Even if you are a Dragon Lord!"

Evileye was uncontrollably angry: "Don't be too self-righteous!"

The Dragon Lord in front of her was indeed powerful.

Evileye could feel the obvious gap, but if she wanted to run, she had the confidence to escape, but what about the companions left behind?

The only way now was to lure the other party away, and then teleport back to take everyone away!

I am a woman who has lived for over 250 years!

"Magic Maximize · Crystal Scatter Shot!"

Evileye activated magic first.

Crystal scatter shots the size of fists were injected with negative energy, and after further strengthening by magic, they bombarded the giant dragon in the sky like real cannonballs.

This was the earth-type special attack magic she was good at; it was not only a range attack, but the sharp crystals could also further increase the destructive power.

The dragon tail attack of the crimson Dragon Lord easily broke the crystal shield, and Evileye already knew that she must not give this Dragon Lord any chance to get close!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Tang Zheng looked down at the tiny figure below and did not move or dodge at all, letting the attack fall.

There were not many opponents of Evileye's level, so it was just right to determine his own abilities.

Bang——

The crystal scatter shots exploded on his body.

Tang Zheng's body did not sway in the slightest, and there wasn't even a trace on the scales on his body surface.

As expected.

Looking at the attribute panel, "Body Armor" lost 27 points of durability.

"Not bad." Tang Zheng thought secretly in his heart.

Evileye's fingertips trembled; even though she had expected that her attack couldn't cause effective damage, she didn't expect it to have no effect at all.

"Fly"!

Magic surged.

Evileye flew into the sky in the opposite direction, and simultaneously activated magic again:

"Magic Maximize · Dragon Lightning!"

A brilliant blue electric light surged from her arm, turning into a galloping dragon-shaped lightning, bombarding toward Tang Zheng's direction.

There was no need to aim specifically!

"Dragon Lightning" itself was considered a range-type magic, not to mention that with such a large size, even if she didn't aim, she could attack it.

After Evileye activated the magic, she didn't pay any more attention, but put all her effort into urging her mana to escape.

Clatter!

The red robe was blown by the wind.

This most powerful race seemed to be born with amazing resistance to magic attacks and physical attacks.

However.

Damage was one aspect; the paralysis effect produced by "Dragon Lightning" would affect the opponent's actions to a certain extent, making it convenient for her to open up a greater distance.

"Are you trying to compete with me in flight speed? Mortal!"

Tang Zheng looked at the fleeing Evileye and let out a cold laugh; facing the blue lightning bombarding him, his huge body suddenly shrank.

"Shadow Assault"!

In an instant!

A huge shadow vanished from its spot at an extraordinary speed, easily dodging the Dragon Lightning attack while leaving a black afterimage in mid-air.

In the time of a single breath.

Evileye, who had already escaped a distance, looked ahead as if she had been choked by the throat: "How could..."

The crimson giant dragon's figure had already blocked Evileye's path.

"Shadow Assault" was one of the abilities of "Body Armor".

Boom!!

A dragon claw, sharp like a wall, swung down from the sky, grabbing viciously toward Evileye.

"Gravity Reversal!" Evileye chanted quickly.

Tang Zheng felt that the dragon claw he was swinging lost some strength, as if it had been drained of some power, and the movement slowed down by a beat.

——Whoosh!

Evileye immediately stopped rushing forward, had no time to retreat, urged her mana to increase her height, and her agile figure easily bypassed Tang Zheng's giant body, flying up.

Swish!

"You can't escape."

Tang Zheng's dragon wings shook, increasing his height as well, the fierce, huge dragon head surpassing Evileye first, and a wisp of flame sprayed from his nasal cavity:

"Obediently crawl on the ground for me!"

This time, both dragon claws swung out simultaneously, the sharp claws piercing the air, forming a harsh hum. "This distance is enough—Teleport!"

Evileye roared suddenly, and her figure vanished into thin air.

At an altitude of over a thousand meters.

Only Tang Zheng was left, his wings paused, stopping his ascent.

"Heh, such little tricks are not hard to guess."

Tang Zheng lowered his head, the golden dragon pupils penetrating layers of air, easily capturing Evileye, who had already appeared under the jungle, and the dragon claw grabbed into the void.

A small scroll appeared in the giant palm.

In the form of the Golden Dragon Lord, Tang Zheng could not use tier magic, but using magic scrolls was unaffected.

The palm exerted a slight force, and the scroll was crushed.

8th Rank magic "Judgment Lockdown"!

An invisible barrier quickly spread to shroud the area below.

And at this moment.

Evileye, who had teleported back to the jungle, had already arrived at the side of 【Blue Rose】 and the others.

Just now, in the gap between her battle with the crimson Dragon Lord.

Lakyus, who was less injured, had already pulled Gagaran, Seeing Tina, and Tia to her side.

"Captain, let's retreat!"

As soon as Evileye appeared, she quickly grabbed Lakyus, who was already prepared.

"Go!" Lakyus had blood on the corners of her mouth, her golden, spiraling curly long hair was now messy, looking extremely disheveled.

The successive abnormal situations caused the investigation mission this time to fail.

Lakyus was full of regret in her heart, but she also understood the situation in front of her; retreating first was the most important thing.

"Teleport."

Evileye chanted, activating magic.

However!

The shift in vision she imagined did not appear; Evileye and the others flickered, but actually remained in place.

"What is going on!"

A look of incredulity appeared on Evileye's face behind the mask, and her eyes rarely showed panic.

Although Lakyus didn't know what had happened, she also realized the problem, and her fair cheeks turned ugly: "Evileye, it's that Dragon Lord who is playing tricks!"

——Clatter!

A gale came from the sky.

Tang Zheng controlled the huge dragon body and descended from mid-air unhurriedly: "Want to run away?"

"I have already said, a group of ants just needs to crawl on the ground!"

"Damn it!" Evileye saw that the teleportation magic had completely failed, and a chill spread throughout her body; this was a situation beyond her imagination.

"Captain, take them and go."

"I'll stop it!" Evileye was like a bristling leopard, letting go of Lakyus's hand, and turned to rush toward Tang Zheng:

"Magic Maximize · Crystal Knight Spear!"

Lakyus's eyes were filled with grief and indignation; who would have thought that an investigation mission could plunge the team into such a situation.

While regretting in her heart, her eyes couldn't help but shed crystal-clear tears!

As captain, she would never abandon her companions no matter what, but precisely because of this, Lakyus understood even more that staying here would only drag Evileye down.

Evileye, you must have a way to leave!

In Lakyus's clear blue pupils, Evileye's back was reflected; she grabbed Seeing Tina and Tia with both hands, hoisted Gagaran up, and turned to flee.

"Humph!"

Tang Zheng let out a cold snort.

"Shadow Assault"!

A black shadow flashed,

The crimson, huge body was like a ghost, easily dodging the Crystal Knight Spear while appearing in front of Evileye.

Lifting the dragon claw high, he swung it down heavily!

Evileye's field of vision was instantly shrouded by the giant dragon claw, and she hurriedly activated magic: "Damage Shift!"

Boom!

Terrifying power poured out, and a crater half a meter deep appeared on the ground out of thin air; Evileye was like a piece of paper being pressed flat on the ground.

The dragon claw lifted.

Evileye actually climbed up from the ground shakily, looking unscathed except for her clothes being stained with mud.

"'Damage Shift', huh, not a bad skill."

Tang Zheng looked at the skill prompt appearing on the attribute panel, a smile flashing in his eyes that was imperceptible.

The reason he was still fighting the other party was that he wanted to force the other party to use the skill means he wanted.

The dragon claw reached out again to grab Evileye.

"Magic Resistance Break Maximize · ——!"

Evileye staggered, her body swaying, the eyes behind the mask becoming more and more crimson, feeling the mana left in her body suddenly becoming scarce, and she activated magic with all her might again.

I must create—more escape time for my companions!

"Ninjutsu · Immovable Jin Gang Shield!"

"Ninjutsu · Immovable Jin Gang Shield!"

Suddenly.

Two weak, delicate shouts rang out.

At the very front of the dragon claw, two shields emitting golden light appeared simultaneously.

Click!

Click!

Only blocking for a moment, the two golden shields shattered simultaneously.

"Ah——Dark Blade Super-Crossbow Level Shockwave!"

A beautiful blonde figure leaped out from above Evileye's head, the black magic sword in her hand hacking heavily onto the dragon claw.

Immediately after, pure black energy erupted.

Boom!

The huge shockwave blew Lakyus away while also blocking the dragon claw's offensive.

Everyone!

"Dragon Lightning!"

Evileye saw everyone who had originally fled return, and while shedding tears uncontrollably, she chanted angrily.

Boom!

The Dragon Lightning, strengthened by two kinds of magic, erupted with a dazzling blue light that illuminated the jungle.

"Useless attack!"

The arrogant voice sounded calmly.

The Dragon Lightning bombarded the crimson giant dragon accurately; however, under everyone's gaze, as the electric light dissipated, the other party remained unscathed.

Only at the position where the Dragon Lightning attacked were there some scorched marks and broken scales.

Bang!

The dragon claw lifted, grabbing Evileye in its hand.

"Put the little one down——Super Continuous Attack!" Gagaran rushed out from the rear, roaring weakly and angrily, the crushing hammer she swung hitting Tang Zheng's dragon claw like a downpour.

Bang——Bang——

Dense metal collision sounds exploded on the dragon claw.

"Run!"

"Why don't you run!" Evileye's voice trembled, a wail mixed in her sobbing.

Tang Zheng lifted his arm, knocked Gagaran away, and pulled Evileye, who he was grabbing, in front of him.
