Chapter 616 - HOW CAN YOU BE HERE?
THE red dragon's expression became even uglier. It seemed like smoke would come out of his nostrils at any second. He was looking at Luo Yan as if he wanted to burn him or torture him in the most painful way.
The other dragons were no different. They were looking at Luo Yan's direction as if they couldn't wait to tear him to pieces.
"A lowly elf preaching over us dragons? It seems like you really have a death wish."
"No, it's not only a death wish. He seems to be asking us to delete his existence as a whole."
"Then, why don't we grant that wish? I'm more than willing to do that."
"Relax, the elf is obviously a kid who lacked education. I suggest we all teach him manners."
Luo Yan chuckled hearing all those buzzing. "You want to teach me? No, thanks. I don't need that. Why, you ask?" he flipped his white hair over his shoulder, raised his chin, and put his hand on his chest. "Because I'm already perfect."
He didn't know where he got it, but Eclipse suddenly started to throw flower petals around him after he said that. He even followed that by his loud cheering.
"Hooo! Mashter is the best! Mashter is the most beautiful! Those lizards are no match for Mashter!"
Shen Ji Yun stared at the two, one was throwing flower petals around and the other was enjoying while looking all proud. A certain phrase suddenly came to his mind, 'match made in heaven'. Of course, not in a romantic sense. But in a master-disciple kind of thing.
If we're talking about being a match made in heaven in the romantic sense, then, he cleared his throat, wasn't he the best candidate? He might be boring and not as likable, but he believed that his stable personality matched Luo Yan quite well. Or at least he hoped so.
"Ugh… how embarrassing," he heard Dusk said when the other passed by him.
Shen Ji Yun looked again at the duo and scratched the tip of his nose. Well, it did look a bit embarrassing. But in his eyes, rather than embarrassing, it's more adorable. Of course, that wouldn't be the case for everyone.
He glanced at the dragons surrounding them. They all looked like they wanted to eat Luo Yan alive. He shook his head. How could he let these NPCs look at his rabbit like that?
So, he jumped on the nearest group of dragons from where he was standing. Before the dragons could react, he stabbed his sword on the ground and quickly used of his few AoE skills – [Lightning Field].
It's a skill that could affect the opponents within a certain radius with him as the epicenter. It would stun the opponents for 5 seconds and also lower their stats to the bare minimum. Thus, making it easy to inflict major damage. It did require a huge amount of Mana. But that's not really a problem since he had a lot of Mana potions that could immediately make up from the amount that he lost.
As expected, the affected dragons were stunned. He didn't give any of the remaining dragons a chance to help. He quickly used most of his remaining Mana on another skill – [Thunderclap].
It's another one of his few AoE skills. He could move as fast as lightning in a certain range and attack opponents inside that range, dealing them a huge amount of AoE damage.
This skill as well as [Lightning Field] were a perfect combination together. It's especially effective to use against a group of strong opponents. But it could only work perfectly if the opponents were caught by surprise and they had no idea about the said skills. If they did, then, they could easily avoid the combo by simply not standing in a group together.
Luckily for him, these dragons fulfilled those conditions. And now they were nothing but speck of dust.
He took out a high-grade Mana potion and drank it. His MP were slowly being filled. Then, he pointed his sword at the red dragon whose expression right now couldn't simply be described in words.
"Stop wasting our precious time and just get on with this trial or whatever," he said in his usual cold tone.
With his successive actions, the remaining dragons' attentions were now focused on him. Just like what he wanted.
The red dragon in particular literally had smoke coming out of his nose. Even most of his features were turning into his bestial form. With just that, it could be seen just how much anger he was holding in right now. The only reason that was probably stopping him from completely turning into his dragon form was his pride. Because once he did, it would feel like he had lost somehow.
"You ignorant fools! Do you think you can make it out alive this valley after doing all this?" the red dragon yelled, everyone could hear his teeth grinding. Then, he took a deep breath. As if trying to keep himself calm. He looked at them with eyes silently telling them that they were now dead. "Everyone, attack altogether. Don't leave anyone alive."
"What happened to the batch of four? I guess you dragons couldn't handle us unless you work together," Luo Yan said. He looked back at the dragons with a condescending manner and continued with a smile, "What a group of weakling."
"Shut up, you lowly elf!"
"No, you shut up, ugly red lizard!" Eclipse shouted back.
The calmness that the red dragon managed to control completely broke after that. "Kill them all!"
At the other's order, the remaining dragons rushed towards the four.
Dusk suddenly moved forward, removing his fox mask. Neither Luo Yan nor Shen Ji Yun stopped him. The situation was already in shit. It didn't matter whether these dragons saw Dusk's face. Maybe it could even lead them to the answer they were looking for.
"Oh, for f*ck's sake. This king no longer wants to play your shitty game."
After saying that, Dusk breathed out blue flame. Taking the incoming dragons by surprised and thus, burning their bodies.
The red dragon seemed to not care about the dragons that were suddenly set to fire. Instead, all his attention was on Dusk. He stepped back, his expression full of fear and disbelief. As if he had just seen a ghost that came back from the dead.
"Y-you… it can't be. H-how can you be here?"
