Chapter 528: Chapter 528 - Kingsley vs. The Gorilla
Elincia swiftly dodged the incoming magic attacks, her body wrapped in a crackling blue aura as she maneuvered through the air with incredible agility. She dove low, weaving between monsters as the magic spheres chasing her fizzled out and crashed into the ground behind her.
"Melliandra, can you please focus on attacking that monkey!" Elincia called out over the Guild channel.
"Do you think I'm just fooling around here, Elincia?!" Melliandra shouted in frustration. "I'm doing my best, but its magical barriers are so thick! I'm getting really annoyed."
"I'll try to get closer to that monster and draw its attention," Kingsley offered.
"No, Kingsley, your role is critical where you are. Stay on your post," Goldrich quickly responded.
"Why aren't those players being more helpful?! So many of them have already died! This is ridiculous!" Melliandra grumbled.
Elincia was struggling to make full use of her spells. Despite her immense magical power, her low Constitution made her vulnerable, and the relentless attacks were too much for her to handle while trying to cast her magical shields.
"Their levels are too high, and my magical damage is heavily reduced because of their magic resistance."
"Elincia, step back for a moment and recover," Goldrich advised.
"Damn it, this is so stressful... but I really need to recover first," she sighed, reluctantly pulling back.
Elincia attempted to retreat from the battle, and after several more attempts at casting her spells, a torrent of lightning bolts rained down from the sky, wreaking havoc upon the battlefield.
Meanwhile, Kingsley, in his massive bear form, charged wildly through the chaos, his claws tearing deep into the ground with every slam. He was preparing to confront the Gorilla Guardian head-on. This was going to be a brutal battle, but only Kingsley had the strength to hold on such a creature.
"Several guilds with healers and support roles are close by to assist you, Kingsley," Goldrich said urgently. "Just make sure you don't take fatal damage."
With a roar, Kingsley charged at the Gorilla Guardian. The towering beast responded with a roar of its own, pounding its massive fists against its chest in a show of strength.
The two giants stood nearly the same height, both roaring as they barreled toward each other, their enormous footfalls shaking the earth beneath them.
Kingsley threw a powerful punch with his right paw, but the Gorilla Guardian ducked swiftly, ramming its body into Kingsley and knocking him slightly off balance. Kingsley recovered quickly, retaliating with another fierce strike, and the two clashed, trading blows in a fierce battle.
The sheer intensity of the fight between these two colossal creatures drew the attention of everyone on the battlefield, as the ground quaked with every hit they landed. It was clear that this titanic duel was something no one could ignore.
The Gorilla lunged at Kingsley, swinging its massive arms with wild force. Kingsley was thrown effortlessly, slamming into the ground with a thunderous crash, his large body crushing several nearby monsters in the process.
The Gorilla leaped again, aiming both massive fists at Kingsley. But in a split second, Kingsley transformed into his panther form, darting out of the way just in time. As he leaped into the air, his body shifted back into a massive bear, and with a tremendous impact, he slammed into the Gorilla, knocking it back slightly.
Despite Kingsley's relentless efforts, his attacks barely left a mark on the Gorilla Guardian, which seemed almost impervious to damage.
"I can only hold this thing off," Kingsley muttered. "I don't have enough power to deal any real damage."
"You've done great, Kingsley," Elincia replied.
"You sure are useless, Kingsley, haha," Jovina chimed in.
"Shut up, bitch!" Melliandra snapped angrily.
The Gorilla Guardian's movements were sluggish compared to Kingsley, who deftly used his transformations to maneuver quickly through the battle. But one powerful blow from the Gorilla's massive arms sent Kingsley flying violently to the ground. Without hesitation, the Gorilla leaped back, attacking wildly with both arms, landing several heavy strikes on Kingsley. This time, Kingsley couldn't dodge in time and took the full brunt of the attack. In response, Kingsley quickly transformed again, shifting into the form of a massive hawk- This wingspan wide enough to seemingly lift even the enormous Gorilla Guardian. With powerful beats of his wings, Kingsley swooped upward and then dived sharply, his talons locking onto the Gorilla's shoulders with a fierce grip. The Gorilla thrashed in resistance, but with each powerful flap of Kingsley's wings, the massive beast was slowly lifted off the ground.
Suddenly, a massive explosion rang out from a distance, hitting the Gorilla square in the chest. The impact caused the Gorilla's body to jolt violently as debris scattered from the blast.
In his hawk form, Kingsley let out a piercing screech and opened his beak wide. The Gorilla was now completely airborne, its massive arms flailing in an attempt to strike back. But Kingsley, with sharp reflexes, kept shifting his grip from one talon to the other, dodging the Gorilla's desperate attempts to grab hold of him.
Suddenly, dozens of magic spheres shot toward Kingsley from the distance. The attack came so fast that Kingsley had no time to dodge. Forced to release the Gorilla Guardian, he dropped the massive creature to the ground.
Kingsley was bombarded by the relentless barrage of magic spheres, and two massive explosions erupted-one from the impact on Kingsley, and the other from the Gorilla crashing to the ground.
Kingsley was violently thrown to the ground, his massive body crashing hard into the dirt. He struggled to get up, shifting back into his human form, but something shocking happened- the Gorilla Guardian, seemingly unaffected by the earlier attacks, stood up again and charged straight at Kingsley.
Just as the Gorilla was about to land a devastating punch, Kingsley shifted into his panther form, but it was too late. The Gorilla caught the panther with its massive left hand and
slammed Kingsley into the ground with brutal force.
The Gorilla prepared to strike again, but Kingsley quickly transformed into his massive bear form and threw a powerful punch at the beast. However, the Gorilla blocked the blow with its left hand, then swung its right fist, slamming into Kingsley's body with unstoppable power.
This brutal exchange repeated, with the Gorilla overpowering Kingsley blow after blow. It was becoming painfully clear-Kingsley was being overwhelmed, and the difference in their strength was becoming more and more apparent.
People watching the battle voiced their despair, stunned by the turn of events.
"If even Kingsley can't do anything against that monster, what chance do the other playersn/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
have?"
"I don't see even the slightest hope in this battle. Deadbay will be destroyed soon."
"This is truly terrible. An attack of this magnitude, and even Elincia couldn't do much!"
"Elincia has done a lot! But they aren't a full team. Without that, they can't unleash their best
potential."
"I don't think Kingsley will last much longer. He'll die soon!"
"If even one of the toughest tanks in the game struggles against that monster, there's no
hope left for us."
"This isn't a war-it's a massacre!"
Kingsley struggled to rise, he was clearly at a loss, as the Gorilla Guardian relentlessly
pummeled him. His health bar was dropping fast.
"I'm sorry, I can't do this anymore," Kingsley said.
"What are you talking about, Kingsley?!! You're not that weak!!!" Melliandra shouted in frustration. "You can survive this! Why are you a tanker if you can't even protect yourself? Go heal yourself! You can't die, Kingsley! I need you to keep fighting!!!"
"I was permanently stunned. I... can't move!"
Just as Kingsley braced himself for what seemed like the final blow, a loud scream and an
earth-shaking roar echoed across the battlefield. A large, black object spun rapidly through the chaos, smashing into every monster in its path. The spinning force cut through the horde, sending shockwaves across the battlefield.
The black object hurtled toward the Gorilla Guardian, striking it with such brutal force that the massive beast was knocked off its feet. The impact shook the ground, and the Gorilla Guardian crashed into the earth with a thunderous boom.
"What on Earth is that?"
"Help is coming? But who could it be?"
"What is that?" Goldrich exclaimed.
"A shield?" Jovina muttered softly.
As the spinning object finally slowed, its form became clear-it was a massive black shield. Moments later, a blonde-haired woman clad in heavy armor appeared out of thin air.
She caught the shield mid-flight. Then, with a graceful descent, she landed on the ground, the shield clutched tightly in her hands.
"Kingsley, am I too late?" Ivana asked, offering a calm smile to the massive bear.
