810 Shadow Whip (2/2)
”Thank you very much, my master.”
”Ding! Your pet Akatziris has gained 6,000 Magic Attack!”
”Ding! You pet Akatziris has gained a new skill, Shadow Whip!”
Once the Shadow Essence was in her hands, Jiang Fei had immediately received a string of system notifications.
”Woah, did you know this?” Jiang Fei was stunned when he realized that the Shadow Essence was powerful. Increasing her magic attack was given but 6,000 Magic Attack was insane! Now, Akatziris had reached the potential of a Lower Overlord tier and was no longer the weak little supporter-type pet!
”No. I don't but I felt that I could get stronger with this! The new skill is strong as well!” said Akatziris as she lowered her head bashfully.
”Heh. I look forward to seeing you in the next battle,” said Jiang Fei after he patted Akatziris's slender shoulders. Akatziris was a special existence with higher intelligence. Unfortunately, he was unable to have full access to her complete attribute and skill tree, unlike other player's pets. That was the reason why he had not been relying too much on Akatziris for damage and disabling role; he had little understanding of her character.
After the laboratory map, Jiang Fei and the party proceeded to the next part, which was a small courtyard. The courtyard was different. To be precise, it did not feel like they were still in the same dungeon. The design, the style, and the setting were too different. The courtyard had nothing in it. Just a piece of empty land with wild black dragons roaming around.
”Sheesh! There are so many of them here!”
”Do all the monsters hide here?”
”That must be it! I had thought that it was odd since the difference between the two dungeons was too great! It looks like all the monsters that were missing earlier are all gathered in this courtyard!”
…
The entire party started throwing their theories out there once they entered the courtyard. The odd thing was not about the number of monsters then but the absence of a boss.
”Am I supposed to clear all the monsters to spawn the boss?” wondered Jiang Fei.
”That should be it,” Lady Casanova grunted, who was standing behind him.
”It matters not now. Let's just kill everything here,” said Jiang Fei before he nocked arrows on his Heaven's Breaker Twilight Bow.
”Master, if you would allow me,” said Akatziris before Jiang Fei could attack.
”Mhm. Go ahead,” said Jiang Fei. His voice contained a hint of anticipation since Akatziris had just obtained a new skill.
”Thank you,” Akatziris uttered happily before jumping into a fight with one of the dragons with her whip ready in her hand.
SPSSSH!
After her whip hit one of the dragons, a bolt of black lightning zapped out of her whip and hit the first dragon. That was only the start. Half a second later, the same bolt of black lightning zapped the next monster that was standing close by, dealing damage before jumping off to another dragon. With each jump, the lightning gained more damage. After twenty jumps, the black lightning had stacked so much damage that all the next monsters that were zapped were killed instantly. They were all Advanced Elite Level 80 monsters!
The black lightning continued to jump until the last of the monsters behind were killed and there were no more monsters left to jump on. The only few survivors were the first few monsters that the lightning had failed to kill.
”I'm impressed! You have gained a powerful skill!” cried Jiang Fei. The other players could not even bring themselves to comment on the overwhelmingly powerful skill. It was as close to a Forbidden Spell as it could get!
”This skill is not as powerful as you might think, my master. If the monsters were not standing too close, the lightning could not have jumped onto the next target,” Akatziris explained to Jiang Fei. The skill was strong but it could be easily stopped. If the distance between the next target and the first target exceeded ten meters, the lightning would stop at the first target. Akatziris was only able to display the prowess of the skill since the monsters in the courtyard were packed together like sardines in a can!
”Mhm. That's good to know. We have bigger things to worry about now,” said Jiang Fei as he saw a big shadow coming from the sky.
