Chapter 800 - Blood Giant's Battleaxe
“Charge!”
Angela landed right on the Blood Giant’s back, lunged forward with her sword directly towards the monster. The Blood Giant seemed to instinctively realize that something was happening and immediately began swinging his body from side to side. “Pa!” Angela’s blade missed its target and only sliced some of the Blood Giant’s skin. She did not manage to cut past the body’s protective shield. The Blood Giant suddenly countered and threw his fist towards his back!
“Peng!”
Angela parried the blow with her blade just in time. The backfire threw her into a dike. Her pure white battle robe was now stained with blood and mud. She coughed a wad of blood into her hand as she slowly got up. Owen couldn’t help but shout, “Queen Angela, please don’t go in again. Even if we have to sacrifice thousands of soldiers, we can’t allow you to sacrifice yourself while killing the Blood Giant!”
Her face was quickly twisted with bitter pain. She looked back towards the Ba Huang City soldiers behind her. It was clear she couldn’t bear to let them sacrifice their lives.
……
I picked up my Zhen Yue Blade and walked over. I looked up at Qing Luo and shouted, “Lieutenant Qing Luo!”
Qing Luo looked over at me with a smile, “Lord Dragon Knight, what is your command?”
I replied calmly, “Do you have any way of trapping the Blood Giant’s upper body? At least so that he doesn’t struggle too much? I want to try and see if I can break that Abyssal Tumor!”
Qing Luo pursed her lips, “Hmm… My Dragon Knights and I can try it out, but we don’t have very much time. We can keep him trapped for one minute at most. My lord, you have to be careful. If the situation looks bad, you can’t force yourself. If anything happens to you, Lady Frost will be very upset…”
“I know, let’s go! “
“Okay!”
On the ground, a group of Ba Huang City and Tian Ling City soldiers rushed into the fray. Canons exploded one after another. The Blood Giant was practically hidden in the thick smoke. The furious cries continued. As a god tier BOSS, he had pride and dignity that he needed to fight for. He would not give up easily.
Qing Luo and four other Dragon Knights were in the middle of a discussion. Soon after they quickly dispersed, creating a pentagonal formation. Qing Luo pulled out a long chain from her bag. At the end of the chain was a sharp awl. She looked over at the giant and said, “Is everyone ready?”
The Dragon Knights all nodded, “Yes, Lieutenant!”
“Let’s begin!”
Qing Luo leapt up into the sky and threw all of her weight into the ground. “Peng!” She dove straight towards the earth and buried the awl deep into the ground. A screech rang through the air and several other Dragon Riders also threw themselves towards the ground. Qing Luo shouted, “Disperse, begin flying out and trapping this giant!”
All of the soldiers on the ground spread out while five of the Dragon Riders began flying in circles. One end of the chain was tied to the saddle on the back of the dragon. They circled the Blood Giant’s body round and round. After ten turns, the five dragons flapped their powerful wings to keep the giant locked in place. The giant roared, “You cowardly cheats. I will smash you to bits!”
Unfortunately, no matter how much the giant struggled, he couldn't break free of the chains. Even so, he was clearly straining the dragons as they swayed with his movements.
……
I immediately charged forward and swung my Zhen Yue Blade, activating [Zhen Yue’s Battle Song]. The buff gave me a boost in attack power. Right as I got close to the giant, I leapt off my horse. Kicking off of the Blood Giant’s back, I rushed up towards his shoulders and hacked away at his back. “Peng, peng!” Sparks flew. Its back was as hard as rock, making it impossible to cut through.
I started to panic and began activating a combo: [Strength of a Thousand Men]+[Combo]. I threw out ten strikes in that instant. I dealt a shallow gash into the Blood Giant’s back, but it wasn't deep enough just yet. The remaining layer was as thick as dragonskin. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't cut through!
In the distance, Qing Qian shouted to me, “Brother Xiao Yao, careful!”
Everyone was waiting on me. I didn't have much time left either. After feeling the bite of my sword, the Blood Giant went into a frenzy. Godly power began emanating from every inch of his body. Qing Luo and the Dragon Riders weren’t much better off either. A deep gash opened up on the dragons’ backs from the chaotic struggle. Blood started flowing down their backs and the dragons wailed into the sky.
After retreating several steps, I dashed forward and swung my blade, yelling, “Move!”
“Pa Cha!” Lightning flashed and I activated the [Thundering Heavens] skill. Purple lightning lit up the sky. The phenomenon was a beautiful sight to see. All of the players of [Zhan Long] let out a gasp as the scenery played out before them. Even the NPCs like Angela, Owen, and Theodore were dumbfounded.
“I never would have thought that Commander Li Xiao Yao would have such godly power….” Pearl exclaimed with a smile.
The old king nodded, “Commander Li Xiao Yao is truly a talented asset for the empire…”
……
After [Thundering Heavens] dealt its wrath, I charged straight through the net of lightning with my sword in hand and threw another slash. This time, it had an effect. “Pa!” The thick layer of skin finally split apart. Right underneath the flesh was a red tumor. This was the source of the Blood Giant’s Abyssal Power.
“Keng!”
I unsheathed my Dragon Reservoir Sword. With both swords in hand, I pierced the tumor. “Ka Cha!” It broke. A fierce whirlwind rose up as all of the power escaped. I felt a hot wind suddenly hit my face and chest. I was thrown backwards into the air. When I hit the ground I had less than 10,000 health. Wan Er quickly sprinted over to help me up, “Healers!”
Several healers spammed [Heal]s on me. I looked down at my chest. My Hidden Dragon Armor had actually melted from the hit. Wasn’t this Abyssal Power a little too OP?
I looked up and saw the Blood Giant Kehl sitting on his knees and howling. Steam was continuously rising from his back as the Abyssal Power kept flowing out. For him, this was an extremely painful process. The power escaping from his back must have felt like a hot arrow which soon dyed the sky red. It was also a signal to the Hybrid Demon Army of complete defeat.
……
In the sky, Qing Luo gave orders: “Cut the lines, our mission is complete!”
