522 Duordas Endless Summons! (1/2)
Duorda commented, ”You shattered their bones… A good move. That keeps me from resummoning them.”
Jack challenged the dragon's charge, understanding that Duorda likely had more summons than the hero could imagine. If Duorda was old enough to know of Daruun and his true role in the world, then there's no telling how many different beasts or people had come to challenge the crypt lord over time. And remembering Duorda's earlier comment in the battle, Jack assumed that these Undead Dragons were once Duorda's challengers. This was more clear as the newest four Undead Dragons were different from the first three.
The first three dragons were all twenty meters long and were thinner with a large wingspan. But the cour new dragons had no wings. Instead, they were huge in stature, and their bones were incredibly thick and dense. Jack could assume that the first three were made from Storm Dragons while the newest Undead Dragons were once Quake Dragons.
Those four dragons ran at top speed into Jack's blade. Their stronger bone structures proved more formidable against Jack's powerful sword strikes, but not unbreakable.
It took more swings of the sword, but Jack learned that he could still manage against those four dragons with his current skill set.
As the lead Undead Dragon attacked Jack yet again, Jack vanished with Sudden Death. The hero reappeared above the dragon's neck. Purple energy coated his blade this time, using Spatial Slash in conjunction with the five attack combo. It ate a lot more mana but it proved to be incredibly potent.
The Undead Dragon roared as its neck was severed and its head dropped to the floor. When the head finally grew quiet, Jack attacked the head with his fire combo. It managed to crack the skull and leave the rest of the skeleton lifeless as it collapsed to the ground.
Repeating this tactic, Jack targeted the next Undead Dragon. However, as Jack decapitated that dragon he noticed a ray of black energy fall upon the last dragon that Jack slew.
”So long as at least eighty percent of the skeleton remains, I can keep them as soldiers,” Duorda commented as the other skeleton reformed without a head and whipped its club-like tail a Jack.
Unhappy to see that, Jack finally covered his entire body in flames. Keeping his flame body at Jack's usual size, Jack wielded the katana with white and black flames. Combining the sword wave attacks with his hellish fire was devastating to the headless skeleton. It was reduced to cinders, as was the second Undead Dragon that Jack finished off.
”Oh, so you were still hiding your strength? Wonderful!” Duorda shouted.
With Sudden Death, Jack managed to evade the black bolt while also cleaving one dragon's head in two. Using Sudden Death, the sword technique, and the bloodline skill together allowed Jack to destroy the skeletal remains of the dragons with relative ease.
”Then try this!”
