Chapter 157  A Fiery Clash

~KISHAAAAA~

The female Ember Bellow Lizard let out a loud cry, as the Dragon Horn Beetle pushed her away.

[-4% HP]

She was knocked at least five meters away, giving Arthur the space and freedom to act. Though the actual damage dealt to her was quite less.

>Player Arzhur is fighting a Draconid!<

>Dragonic Vengeance has taken effect!<

>All damage will be increased by 100%!<

In that moment, Arthur's eyes turned into thin slits while a violent gleam appeared in them. He didn't even realize it, but a certain anger started to fill his body. The anger quickly took over his instincts, his hands moving automatically.

He raised Dietrich and stabbed it straight through the male Ember Bellow Lizard's head. The spear tip tore through the tough scales as if they were made of chalk and cut into the supple flesh. Blood seeped out from the wound immediately as a hole was poked straight through the skull.

Arthur needed no skill, as a simple attack was enough to finish a defenseless lizard.

[-15% HP]

[Fatal Hit!]

>Player Arzhur has killed the Ember Bellow Lizard!<

As soon as Arthur saw the confirmation, his head snapped towards the female Ember Bellow Lizard. He knew that he couldn't lose focus right now and needed to get rid of the second one too.

~KYSSSAAAA~

Of course, the female Ember Bellow Lizard wasn't waiting calmly either, and was currently struggling against Brambles.

The Dragon Horn Beetle continued to flap its wings with its full might while stabbing its legs on the ground to prevent the female Ember Bellow Lizard from turning around.

"Keep it pinned! I'm coming!" Arthur shouted as he executed a skill. "Lock!"

>Weapon Skill Lock has succeeded!<

>Ember Bellow Lizard's Intelligence and Toughness will be sealed!<

>Ember Bellow Lizard has been weakened: Intelligence -3, Toughness -2<

The Lock skill only worked on two stats this time, possibly due to the level difference, and it also sealed fewer stats than others. But it did seal the intelligence of the beast and only left it with 2 points!



This was a good thing for Arthur, as in the next moment, the female Ember Bellow Lizard was totally enraged.

~WHOOSH~

~SLAM~

Her tail moved like a whip through the air before slamming into the side of Brambles.

[-3% HP]

Surprisingly, it actually inflicted damage on the beetle, though it was still limited.

But at the same time, the force was enough to push the beetle, freeing the Ember Bellow Lizard.

And with Brambles not pinning it down, the Ember Bellow Lizard moved its head towards Arthur and opened it wide.

A red glow could be seen deep in its gullet as a scorching heat spread out.

'Draconid's breath!' Arthur knew exactly what the beast was using.

He was sure that it wasn't the weaker Ember Bellow, as it would then inflate its cheek pouches, but rather the stronger and higher cost Draconid breath. It was a testament to the anger of the Ember Bellow Lizard.

"I can do it!" Arthur was currently mid-air, and the fiery breath of the female Ember Bellow Lizard was already coming towards him.

Its speed was fast, and Arthur couldn't dodge it right now even if he wanted. But he didn't care and decided to just endure it while doing his best to change the direction.

~SHUA~

The flames touched Arthur's body, and he felt a burning pain.

[-42% HP]

>Player Arzhur has been inflicted with a burn!<

>Player Arzhur will continue to lose HP while burning!<

>Warning! Player's Armor pieces are rapidly losing durability!<

Several strings of notifications popped up in a row. Arthur didn't lose focus though, and endured it all.

Thankfully, the Draconid breath had come at an upward angle and Arthur was already falling downwards. As such, he was only in contact with the fiery breath for a single second before he was out of it.

But The Ember Bellow Lizard had seen this too and was already lowering its head. The lizard wished to turn Arthur into ashes.

[-1% HP] [Burn]

[-1% HP] [Burn]

[-1% HP] [Burn]

Still, the fire continued to burn on him, which he ignored for the time being. Instead, he held the Key Spear in the middle and swung it, leaving a trail behind it.

"Wide Sweep!"

Arthur's attack struck the lower jaw of the Ember Bellow Lizard, forcing it to keep its head up.

[-8% HP]

The attack had only struck the surface and yet it had managed to cut through its scales. Though the flesh had not been affected as much.

But this was merely the start for Arthur.

"Spear Coating! Rapid Thrust!" Keeping his momentum, he used two skills in a row continuing to strike the beast's jaw.

This kept its head up while its fiery breath continued to spew.

>Spear Coating has been activated!<

>Frost Touch has been selected as the infused spell<

[-2% HP]

[-1% HP] [Frost damage]

[-1% HP]

[-1% HP] [Frost damage]

[-2% HP]

[-1% HP] [Frost damage]

The rapid attacks did little damage, but the frost was already affecting the Ember Below Lizard, as a layer of it settled on its mouth.

life had come to an end.

Comment

Despite the heat from its body, the frost was not dispelled right away, giving Arthur the time to execute the next skill.

"I just need one more! SKEWER!" Arthur used his strongest attack skill, putting all his power behind it.

Dietrich shone under the plume of flames that had set the trees around it alight. The temperature of the area had already increased to scorching levels and anyone staying there would start to burn.

But despite the heat, Arthur didn't falter and pressed onward. The Key Spear first shattered the thin layer of frost on the chin before piercing through the jaw of the female Ember Bellow Lizard!

[-13% HP]

[Fatal Hit!]

The attack would have damaged more if not for the fact that the beast only had a 13% of its HP left. But all that mattered was that its life had come to an end.
