Chapter 626: Loyal Guardian Soul (2/2)
Step by step, Dada walked toward Mengchuan. Second by second, time was sapping away its life energy. In the end, it dropped powerlessly to the ground before it could rejoin its master.
It died… it died just like that...
”Dada…”
Mengchuan roared hoarsely as if he was crying, ”My friend, my eternal friend…”
……
Thunder laughed arrogantly before walking toward me. I was the only one left who could be a threat to him, no matter how small. I drank a health potion and used Tenacity of the Dead immediately.
+8617!
+5000!
Thunder’s sword was brimming with intimidating power. Energetic thorns sprouted from the blade as if he was planning to deal me the fatal blow.
”Roar roar…”
Suddenly, the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf blocked in front of me, hair raised and glaring hatefully at Thunder. I was surprised. The little wolf I knew was a cowardly animal, and this was the first time it risked its life for me. Was it affected by Dada’s death?
”Heh, another animal!”
Thunder laughed disdainfully and kicked the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf into the air. The gap of power was way too big, and it bounced multiple times across the walls before it finally landed back on the ground, yelping in pain. It so happened that it landed right next to Dada, their heads touching.
……
”You motherfucker!”
Furious, I raised the Cyan Netherworld Sword and used the God Binding Art!
MISS!
I wasn’t surprised by this result in the slightest. With my current level and stats, there was not a chance in hell I could’ve shackled Thunder. I hurriedly activated the Shield of Evening and made myself invulnerable for 12 seconds. Against a boss like this, every second I didn’t die was a second earned. Plus, what else could I do in a situation like this?
I launched my most powerful combo, Universe Break + Burning Blade Slash at the boss's head. It was also everything I had. Thunder’s level was so high that not even Dark Pupils could identify a so-called weak point. In fact, a super boss at his level might not even have a weak point to speak of. The only way to beat him was with absolute power.
Clang clang clang!
A bunch of sparks exploded from Thunder’s body as four damage numbers appeared—
8074!
904!
1035!
1290!
It was such a pitiful amount of damage that it was depressing. Universe Break was the only skill that did a noteworthy amount of damage because it basically ignored Defense. As for the Burning Blade Slash, Thunder didn’t even bother reacting to it.
Despair and shock filled my heart. I could teleport back to the city now, but I was reluctant to do so. I couldn’t and wouldn’t give up on Mengchuan, Dada, and the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf no matter what!
”Haha, you damned kid!”
Thunder swung his sword and hit the Shield of Evening seven or eight times in a row. If this shield wasn’t unbreakable, I would’ve been cut into shreds by his ridiculous power already!
My eyes were almost bloodshot with urgency as Thunder knocked me back repeatedly.
Suddenly, a draconic roar suddenly broke from the sky. Then, an ugly dragon’s head poked out of the clouds, stared at me and said sincerely, ”Oh, my beloved master’s big brother, master and I have come to save you. Hey you, despicable Thunder the Blade of Death, your days as a despicable man have come to an end…”
Joy overwhelmed me when I looked into the sky. Xinran had finally arrived on the Winged Silver Dragon. If she was even a few seconds late, I would’ve been decapitated by Thunder already.
Xinran abruptly jumped off the dragon’s back and floated into the sky. Her bloody cape flapped loudly against the wind, and the way she was holding the Dragonbone Spear looked ridiculously cool. She smiled at me and said, ”Sorry for putting you on such a harrowing journey, big bro. I’ll take care of this…”
Completely caught off-guard by this sudden turn of events, Thunder murmured, ”Wind… Wind Singer Xinran? Why are you here, you traitor?”
Xinran pointed her spear at him. ”Remember that time I cut your ribs in half, stupid? Come, Blade of Death, it is time we end our fight. This time, I won’t allow you to escape.”
……
I was brimming with excitement when a sudden burst of red light behind me caught my attention. I was stunned when I turned around and saw what it was.
The Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf had gotten up to its feet before I realized it. Next to it, Dada’s body was dissolving into red light and concentrating on the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf’s body. The wolf’s fur was dyed red in color, and it looked more fearsome and deadly than before!
