Chapter 937 Breaking Through!
Chapter 937 Breaking Through!
-----
Elbedo was surrounded by three Fused Aberrations at once. Each one being Level 270, no less. I don't know how strong he truly is, but I am sure that these NPC are nerfed for the dungeon's challenge to be high enough.
"SHAAAH!"
The trio of giant, bulky monsters rushed towards him. The rest of the parties were busy fighting the endless swarm. Angelina's party was killing hundreds of the smaller ones as they made their way to Elbedo. The Divine Golden Dragon was surrounded.
"Don't think I'll go down easily!"
He grasped the Sunbeam Relic and imbued it with his Divine Draconic Power. The relic absorbed a large part of his energies, as a powerful beam of divine sunlight was released from his hands, blasting one of the fusions into ashes, while his Holy Light Magic and his Dragon Breath pushed the other two away.
FLASH!
After that, the Divine Dragon quickly leaped into the skies, flying directly towards Angelina's group and firing more beams of divine sunlight, his divine power was depleting rapidly. But to save Angelina's group he was going out of his way to spend most of it.
"Are you alright?! Stay with me! Let's first regroup with Mercedes' group." Said Elbedo. "She's the closest to us!"
"T-Thank you! Hahh…" Angelina sighed in relief. "Alright! Everyone, let's go!"
They quickly leaped over the giant dragon's back, as Elbedo flew over the battlefield and landed in front of Mercedes' party, throwing the relic at her. Brisingra's mother quickly caught the precious divine relic, as the combined group continued killing monsters and advancing rapidly.
"Well done, Elbedo! Now I just need to harness my Spells into this thing- But even if we can blast it with a beam, that won't do, right? Look at the barrier surrounding it!" Mercedes said.
"It looks very tough, and it constantly regenerates!" Said Brisingra, adding some valuable insight. Her Rainbow Spirit Divine Barrier kept changing shape. Swords, fists, spears, spikes, tridents, and shields appeared one after another, both crushing foes and defending Mercedes and herself.
"We'll have to just break through then!"
Rita led their party in the frontlines, her Divine Draconification Skill was really powerful. She seemed to be able to endlessly drain Malice from her surroundings, and had over a dozen Malice Orbs surrounding her, constantly getting refilled.
At the same time, she conjured all matter of devastating Darkness and Void Spells. Not only the dragon spells, but also Void Holes that absorbed damage taken for her easily. And all while her Dark Spirits protected her, healed her, and even boosted her stats randomly.
"Lily, use that fat ass of yours and open the way as much as you can! Break that barrier with Mark!" Rita commanded.
"Hey Rita, do you have to call my ass fat?!" Lily cried.
Her powerful Divine Skill activated again; the earth trembled. Dozens of titans made of stone, metal, and ores surged from the ground. Each one being at least a hundred meters tall. They were all an extension of Lily's own body. Her attacks pummeled down through the horde of monsters, hundreds died, and her fists reached the regenerating, spiraling barrier made of the Demon King Fragment Amalgamation's offshoots with ease.
BAAAM!
A powerful barrage of fists started tearing through. At the same time as Rita was beginning to conjure something big. Mark was also fighting, using his titanic sword and his powerful sword techniques to burn and cut through the barrier. Slowly, the boss' protection was beginning to weaken and show many holes through it. Angelina rushed forwards right after that, cutting through the miasmic walls with her holy light spear and her powerful holy angelic magic.
Explosions of light covered the sky. The monster was still healthy, but its barrier was now at its weakest point. I ordered my Divine Beast Familiars to attack at once, explosions of all sorts of elements blasted through the monsters exposed body, its health slowly beginning to deplete once more. This time, we were going all-out!
I noticed Ambil, Jenny, and Acorn staying behind alongside Brisingra and Mercedes, Elbedo, Gandalf, Anikitty, and Erdrich. The latter's combined armies of Undead and Shikigami Spirits holding back the army quite well, while Jenny constantly expanded her entire body and became larger and larger, spreading tentacles to catch and devour anything. Ambil was our weakest, but still could hold his own ground and take care of himself.
"Dammit these things never stop coming! Why the hell did I come to this damned dungeon?!"
He combined his blacksmithing techniques with his hammer techniques. His hammer swiftly becoming gigantic and a hundred times heavier, easily crushing and burning any offshoot that dared get close to him. He complained a lot, but he was decently strong with all the equipment he prepared beforehand for himself. With this we'll be able to power level him a lot.
"Don't worry about this, Sir Ambil! I will protect everyone!"
Acorn was without a doubt their greatest shield after Elbedo depleted most of his Divine Power reserves, using his gigantic body and his myriad of potions to transform into many shapes and forms, readjusting his stats and fighting styles to easily adapt to anything.
"Is that giant squirrel related with Ratatoskr, the Messenger of the Gods and Yggdrasil's Little Guardian, in some way?" Elbedo wondered, glancing at Acorn with great admiration.
"Kind of!" Brisingra said. "You could say he's his descendant!"
"Ratatoskr has a kid?!" Mercedes gasped.
It seemed that in these times, even Ratatoskr, the ancestor of all Squirrel-kin, was still alive.
However, right now, this wasn't really important.
"GRUOOHHHH!"
The Boss gave out a furious howl, the entire landscape trembled. The offshoot reduced in their production speed as its health was finally reaching 70%! However, this only meant it entered a new phase. It did continue producing offshoots though, this time, they were much larger, as if they came fused from the get-go.
An army of roughly fifty Level 280 Fused Aberrations circled the Boss Monster, pushing away all the attackers that were standing on the ground, stopping them from chipping away at the Boss health bar.
"Looks like it's growing desperate, it's now or never! Mercedes, is the relic done yet?"
"Almost!"
"Then I'll clear the way!"
I quickly decided to enter the battle more personally this time.
"[Draconification]!"
FLASH!
