”Whoa!”
”This has to be the perfect debuff!”
”Look at all these effects! Mr. Lee, this will provide us with a great advantage!”
I never really cared much about the debuff at first, as I didn't really notice the difference even when the King-Emperor's Dignity was upgraded. That changed recently at the Pharos dungeon when I saw for myself what the six percent difference between the two debuffs made.
The Dignity I had in India was more than enough to throw the enemy off guard, but when it doubled in power, it shocked even my allies. Attacks that would normally bounce off would go all the way through, and they could deal far more easily with their enemies' attacks. The Dignity's ability to kill enemies faster made it a powerful weapon for me and my allies, just like the exclusive skills of the Blood Prince, the Predator Duke, and other deities.
The important part here was that this was all possible when I got my King-Emperor's Commitment. There were no other King-Emperor equips out there; I had them all.
The video on the Predator Duke continued while everyone else was in awe of the Dignity's effect and Aaron continued speaking. ”The Duke has two fight styles. The first, as you see here, is when he charges in with a small force of his own.”
The video showed the Duke surrounded by about 500 soldiers, marching ahead together. ”The Duke consumes everything, including damage. Instead of taking damage, he consumes all damage in his surrounding area as part of his exclusive skill.”
The video showed exactly how the Duke was absorbing incoming damage. ”It isn't to say that the Duke is completely immune to damage. Whatever he consumes turns to fat. As you can see now, there are several droplets falling from his body.”
Sure enough, the video also showed black liquid oozing from his body, which sizzled into smoke as it fell to the ground. ”The Duke is unable to retain any of his stolen HP and must continue to absorb to maintain his HP, or in this case, his size.”
Kylie continued the explanation, ”This tactic lasts about twenty minutes at most. The Duke doesn't stay out longer than that, but the fact remains that he moves with his four deity guards and 500 soldiers together…it's hellish to say the least.”
Kylie wasn't kidding. Hundreds of Werewolves threw themselves at the Duke and his army, all aiming for only the Duke but none of their attacks ever hit their mark. All of their spells and skills were just absorbed by the Duke as more and more black liquid poured out from his pores. Even if the Duke was damaged after all that, the most he lost was probably a couple of pounds of fat.
In the entire twenty minutes, the Werewolves were just about wiped out. I could only sigh at what I just watched, but the video continued.
”This is the Duke's second tactic. Here, he employs his Predator Curse and participates in the battle the most.” The Duke was standing out in front, grabbing and throwing blobs of fat from his body which exploded like grenades.
”Those fat bombs are problems, but in this next scene…”
I focused on the video. Soon, something rose from the ground where the Duke was standing. They were blobs of flesh in the shape of humans.
”They are Flesh Dolls, which explode.” The one-meter tall Flesh Dolls charged in at the Werewolves and as soon as they were close enough, they exploded.
-Was it always like this?-
I know I only heard rumors about the Duke in the past, but I at least knew that he relied more on his defensive abilities. His trademark tactic was to just stand in the middle of the battlefield and eat while ignoring whatever attacks came his way.
”The explosive and Doll Summoning abilities were stolen from other deities, as we have confirmed.”
”Ah…” That made sense. That was what made the Duke that much more overpowered than other deities.
”We managed to learn how to deal with both tactics, but the biggest problem we have to deal with is his defensive abilities.”
Again, another group of Werewolves charged in at the Duke. They were the strongest of the Clan. The Duke retaliated by summoning Dolls with one hand and throwing flesh grenades with the other. The vanguard elites managed to break through the four deities and the thousands of devas, allowing a direct chance at the Duke.
At that moment, the Werewolves continued their attacks, solely focused on the Duke, no matter how many of them fell. More and more liquid dripped from the Duke's body, so much so that the ground around him constantly oozed steam. However, that was it. Nothing else happened, no matter how hard the Werewolves fought. They were practically just throwing themselves to feed him.
