Chapter 377 Killing a Tier-3 Monster
The maw of a humongous Sea Serpent was slowly emerging below Dilan, giving him the shock of his life.
He almost froze in place for a moment when he instinctively reached out for his belt. A bunch of potions and magic scrolls were fastened to his belt and Dilan tightly grasped one of the magic scrolls.
[Magic Scroll
Dilan looked deep inside the ginormous mouth that was as big as a one-family house when he disappeared from his previous location.
He reappeared at the border between the sand beach and the Ocean as the ginormous Sea Serpent shot straight into the air.
A huge fountain of water was sprayed onto him followed by the humongous body of the Sea Serpent as more than two hundred meters of its body emerged from the water.
A large wave splashed into Dilan’s face, and he felt goosebumps all over him once again. However, he didn’t freeze in place.
Dilan knew perfectly well that the Sea Serpent was likely to attack him now that it had chosen him as the target.
Maybe it was even somewhat related to the Tier-3 Blue-scaled Flood Dragon. That was bothersome but it was actually not something Dilan was able to change now.
He felt a bit stiff at the thought of fighting an existence like the Sea Serpent, but facing it seemed more reasonable than fleeing inside the forest of the abandoned island.
The latter seemed more dangerous to Dilan, who had yet to figure out what exactly inhabited the center of the abandoned Island.
It was something fearsome, something that had killed millions of marine monsters in the previous Night Invasion, and Dilan didn’t actually want to encounter what lay in the center of the abandoned island, not right now, at least!
He predicted that the Sea Serpent was a Tier-4 existence because its power was much greater than the Flood Dragon. However, there was one point that attracted his interest.
‘Stats of around 700 or something around like that?’ Dilan gauged just from what he perceived when looking in the direction of the Sea Serpent.
He shuddered once again at the thought of ending up in the Sea Serpent’s stomach but a bright smile appeared on his face real quick.
Adrenaline pumped through his veins and he retrieved one of the most expensive Magic Scrolls in his possession.
[[Glacier] Tier-2 Magic Scroll
Drains 75 Units of Mana from the host to create a huge Glacier at the desired position.]
The description to use the Magic Scroll was really easy and Dilan simply followed it. He inserted 75 Units of Mana inside it while shooting straight toward the Flood Dragon.
The Magic Scroll shone in a bright sky-blue tone as Dilan turned around to swing the Magic Scroll straight at the position he had been a moment before, where the sand beach and the Ocean collided.
A huge glacier was created and a cool breeze of wind swept through the beach and over the ocean.
The Glacier was dozens of meters high, long as well as wide. It was basically a huge block of ice that prevented the Sea Serpent from even thinking about killing Dilan right away.
On the other hand, Dilan was not even able to think about the Sea Serpent. His eyes went wide when he saw that the Flood Dragon was rushing toward him, or precisely the Ocean behind him. The arrival of the Sea Serpent had given the Flood Dragon the necessary confidence to believe that it would survive.
However, Dilan was not ready to let the Flood Dragon survive.
[[Bearer of Pain] has been activated. Lifeforce equivalent to 150 Units will be converted to 75 Mana]
[[Bracing Pain] has been activated following a drastic decrease in the Host’s health. The host’s stats will be augmented by 45%!]
Dilan’s health was already a bit lower than before because he had used [Blood Sacrifice] to further enhance the stats he had received from the Cursed Dagger.
However, right now, Dilan’s health was even lower, which was a necessity to enhance his stats as much as possible.
He activated [Regeneration] to its limits along with[Burst Regeneration] so as to leave no stone unturned in his quest that he wanted to be a success.
[[Switch] has been activated. 50 Mana Units and 50 Stamina Units will be reallocated to the host’s Strength!]
‘I have the Indestructible Body activated…I won’t die, no matter how high my stats become…I think!’ Dilan shouted in his mind as he shot toward the Flood Dragon with terrifyingly high stats.
After he had activated [Switch] as well, Dilan’s Strength crossed the threshold of 480 Units, while his Agility crossed 450 Units easily as well.
Even existence at the Peak of Tier-3 wouldn’t be able to reach stats that high. He figured that the limit of a Tier-3 existence was 500 Units and that was something Dilan had nearly attained.
Meanwhile, the Flood Dragon’s stats were a great average of 350 Units. It was much lower than Dilan, which gave him the advantage he needed to shoot past the Flood Dragon that executed another Dragonflame attack.
Dilan didn’t hesitate the slightest as he attacked the cracked, reversed Dragonflame. He didn’t even wince as Xealtron pierced through the dragon scale and went deep inside the flesh of the Flood Dragon.
The Flood Dragon gave a guttural cry of unimaginable pain but Dilan didn’t show any mercy. The moment he let doubt and pity creep in his heart for the Flood Dragon, the Sea Serpent would break through the Glacier and kill him.
That was not something Dilan could accept. Thus, he kept pushing the Cursed dagger deeper into the flesh of the monster until the Flood Dragon suddenly stopped moving.
Dilan’s body was aching from head to toe and he wanted nothing more than to collapse on the ground and pass out right now.
He was not exhausted because his Stamina had reached a dangerous threshold. Rather, it was his body’s current condition that caused him to feel like collapsing on the ground and giving in to his body’s demand for rest.
Dilan took a few deep breaths, resisting the urge to puke as he stored the body of the Flood Dragon he had just killed.
Yet, instead of being able to celebrate having killed a mighty monster two Tiers higher than his own, Dilan could only stare at the Glacier behind him in astonishment.
“This fucking beast is way too strong…” He cursed under his breath as the Sea Serpent pierced through the Glacier that was dozens of meters thick.
The monster’s house-sized body jerked forward, and its body that was almost a kilometer long shot in Dilan’s direction as the countless shards of the Glacier shot through the surrounding area.
Several shards shot in his direction but Dilan countered them with a simple blue shield that manifested in front of him.
He had activated [Aegis’ Shield] while simultaneously ordering the system and opening the Essence shop.
“Sell the fucking Essence crystal of the Flood Dragon…but not its body!” Dilan screamed at the top of his lungs before a notification appeared in front of him.
[Pseudo-Platinum Essence crystal of Level 0 Tier-3 Flood Dragon has been sold. The Host receives 100,000 Essence points!]
Dilan’s smile turned devilish when he realized how many points he had received and he calmed down considerably.
He felt a ray of hope emerging from the darkest of clouds, and Dilan was willing to risk it all!
