Chapter 297 - Under The Deep Blue Sea (IV) (2/2)
Seeing that the monster is now focused on us, Lina and Lucia immediately set off their long-range attacks at the same time.
”[Flame Arrow]!” Lucia's attack shoot like a real arrow and just passed through like a darting bolt of lightning straight to the left eye. I am not familiar with it but based on how hard it hit on the Ice Devilfish, I can tell it is pretty effective.
”[Javelin of Ifrit]!” As for Lina, it seems she is using the Elementalist Battle Maid ability, [Javelin of Ifrit], a magic skill that emulates a javelin's form but in flames and throws it to the target. I don't know the exact details but from what I heard, it ignores 10% of the defense values of the target and deals penetrating damage.
The [Flame Arrow] that hit first caused the Ice Devilfish to roar in pain, disregarding the [Javelin of Ifrit].
FWOOM!
The [Javelin of Ifrit] exploded to the right eye of the Ice Devilfish, causing it to get stunned. Its HP also fell too which means we managed to find its main weakness.
”Tina, we can't fall behind too!”
I cast [Dispel] on my body to heal my debuffs and quickly went to the Ice Devilfish. Next, I activated a few of my attack buffs before proceeding to the attack. With its 'stunned' status, the Ice Devilfish is not moving and we safely managed to reach both eyes. Tina is on the left eye while I am handling the right eye.
Stabbing it with my weapon, I activated one of the skills that I usually use only in quick player executions. It's a normal destructive skill but its main purpose as always is cutting the heads of your opponents. If used against a monster, it will only look like a crescent slash, but that's not it either. The reason is that it is a pretty strong skill that is directly inclined to execution attacks and not only that, it has a very high chance to deal critical damage.
”[DECAPITATION]!”
SWISH!
-you have dealt 4,460,981 damage! Critical!
The Ice Devilfish roared in pain and sharp icicles quickly enveloped its body. Tina and I immediately retreated to safety. It was a pretty close shave since the whole body almost got enveloped by sharp icicles. Who would have thought this guy had a defensive mechanism in store to keep itself safe from attacks? Still, that doesn't mean it will stop me and my followers from attacking.
The Ice Devilfish cackled like a devil and its head slightly stretched a bit. I quickly saw what it was trying to do immediately.
”Defend!”
Everyone heard and they quickly used some of the structures to hide. As for me, I decided to block my shield, that way, I can increase the Paladin SP much faster even without using any skills.
SHA! SHA! SHA! SHA! SHA!
The icicles growing on its body fired like a missile and every icicle that appeared on its body earlier was fired all at once. Before the Icicle Rain ends, I saw two tentacles immediately slamming straight to me who is the most exposed since I only used a shield while the others used a structure to cover their body.
”Clever Bastard!”
But that isn't something I can't dodge. I started running towards the Icicle Rain while maintaining my eyesight to the tentacle.
THUD THUD THUD!
The icicles landed on my shield and I managed to pass through the icicle attack. Without waiting for the tentacle to land down, I changed my weapon back to a magic sword and immediately stabbed it when it was about to go down. This tentacle is pretty annoying, time to cut it down before it can cause more damage!
”[Earth Fissure]!”
