Chapter 82: Village Stele Test part 3

At once that monster changed its attitude and all his hands showed a variety of huge strange-looking weapons which were directed to this rune trying to smash it. Ibro felt lucky.

If he threw his normal rune then this attack would be more than enough to damage his rune. All the weapons landed on the rune at the moment of its explosion but they failed in stopping its power from engulfing that monster.

Although that power was slightly weakened by that monster massive attack but it was enough to threaten that monster. The monster didn't stand like before doing nothing, but his scales suddenly enlarged to cover its whole body with thick layers of defense.

That rune power started to attack that scaly shield brutally. Ibro knew that his single rune effect ranged from 30 seconds to 1 minute. But after the attack of that monster, he didn't know how long it would be.

When he saw that defensive move of the monster, Ibro didn't wait in his place but ran directly towards the monster. He wasn't sure if that monster was still monitoring him or not, but to be safe Ibro didn't lower his guard.

Once he neared that monster he used his sword and hit it towards the monster. The first strike passed easily through the thick scales to hit directly that monster's body.

At once a big red 2000 damage appeared on top of this monster's head. Ibro saw the blood liters of this monster. It had five lines, each one was nearly double the previous one.

This hit of Ibro managed to deplete nearly 20% of this monster's Hp. That wasn't all, the breach Ibro's sword had caused allowed his rune effect to pass through that thick shield and hit the monster badly.

That monster's head kept flashing red figures ranged from 500 to 1000 each. Ibro knew that it was only the effect of this tiny breach so he intended to use his rune effect to the maximum.

Once he directed his next sword towards the monster, the monster finally reacted. It seemed angry as this little weak ant had challenged it and managed to cause painful damage to it.

It released suddenly five strange weapons with tremendous power towards Ibro. Ibro wasn't neglecting his parameters, so when these weapons appeared he evaded them with great agility.

He didn't stop his sword for even a second and directed it to hit the monster penetrating its defense again. This time Ibro didn't just stab it but he moved his sword from the top of its head to the bottom of its leg.

That created a bigger gap for his rune to deal more damage that monster.

'2500-1200-1750-2400-2000'

A string of red damage figures kept rising from that monster without stop, Ibro felt lucky to have these Odd runes. He also was lucky to have Dronil's Ability that raised his rune lethality.

Suddenly that first liter of that monster bottomed out accompanied by a destructive force that made Ibro fly backward. A red-figure with three numbers appeared on the top of his head.

He didn't care by this small loss as his HP was really big. What he cared about was the type of this monster transformation. He suspected that each time this monster loses a life it will transform.

In front of him that monster's body glared in red bright color. Its body kept shaking violently then it decreased suddenly in size. From its original five floors height, it became four flours height.

Its huge body began to shrink while one pair of its hands were lost on the ground. Ibro noticed every single detail of this and muttered to himself in a low voice:

"This transformation is to let it be faster and decrease the area subjected to my attacks."

'It's more than that. I noticed a formation of a huge energy in a single location in that monster's body'

'Where is this area exactly?'

'It's in his head.'

Ibro looked at that monster's head. There was a new horn that wasn't there before. He didn't need to ask any more questions as he figured out what was the exact location of this energy.

It must be related to this horn. After that shockwave that occurred from the monster, Ibro's rune effect was exhausted.

'Do you want me to upgrade another rune?'

'Not now. That monster had tasted bitterly my runes. He won't let me use it again.'

'Then why do you hold this rock in your hand?'

'Ah, you mean this?'

Ibro lifted the rock in the middle of the air like he was showing it to Dronil.

Before Dronil could make any comment that monster screamed like it saw its mortal enemy. At once it sprinted to attack Ibro. Ibro wasn't surprised by this reaction as he wanted to have such a reaction from this monster.

At once he turned around and began to ran away from the monster. At the same time, he threw the rock that was in his hand towards the monster. Once that rock neared it, that monster made a sudden acute turn to avoid it.

When it managed to escape that rock it found Ibro in front of its head. That monster wasn't like any normal monster so its reaction this time was very admirable.

It retreated suddenly using a pair of its hands and the other five pairs directed their weapons towards different parts of Ibro's body.

Ibro moved his body to evade all of them as he retreated backward. Just as the monster wanted to attack him again he was shocked when he noticed a rune he just landed on with its hands.

Ibro wasn't attacking blindly, but during his previous retreat, he put this rune there and directed that monster to be in its area of effect. The monster didn't have time to respond as that rune took its time to be activated.

As it tried to use its previous defense, Ibro appeared behind it rapidly and launched several attacks towards its back. When the monster realized it couldn't defend against Ibro's attack, it used its weapons to hack Ibro's body.

It was a war of attrition that Ibro had the upper hand of. He wasn't winning because he had higher HP, but because he was in perfect position to evade these chaotic attacks while he directed his sword in a well-planned manner.

Ibro's sword coupled with his rune attack depleted this monster HP in 15 seconds. Like the previous time, a shock wave caused Ibro to fly backward. As he was prepared this time, he landed safely on his feet.

'Take note that each evolution of this monster would turn it more agile and raise its HP by double. I guess its HP at its final evolution would be over 150k HP. You will need to do more effort if you wanted to kill this monster.'

'I disagree with you. This time this monster evolution turned it into a long-range monster.'

Ibro was monitoring this monster's evolution. It decreased again to be three floors height and its body shrank in size greatly.

It lost another pair of its hands while another pair were separated from its body and suspended in the air. Then they fused together to form a strange shaped staff.

This transformation didn't miss the keen eyes of Ibro. This transformation added a lot of variables to the equation. This battle was getting harder more and more.

Despite magician class in the game was famous of their thin blood, but Ibro knew how thick this monster life was. It had at least 40k HP. Ibro wasn't totally afraid from this transformation but he worried of what it represent.

The first transformation was agility, the second was MANA. If this monster kept this up then the next would be Strength and the last one would be Endurance.

That last stat transformation was what worried Ibro. This monster's Defense was initially very high especially that ultimate defensive skill of it. Ibro wasn't worried out of fear but he wanted to prepare early.

'Tell me, can you use your second function remotely?'

'You mean on things away from you?'

'Yes.'

'Well, if this thing was yours from the start then I can upgrade it. Note that the effect then will be decreased than the original effect.'

'Then I have another question, if we managed to stop this monster in its transformation, would it be dealt a massive damage?'

'Sure, this will be rebounded on it. But let me warn you, to push this monster to fail its transformation is a very difficult matter, even it may be impossible.'

'Leave that to me.'
